Brrrrr Snow at Gayton

18th Nov - Moored Nr Gayton, Grand Union Canal

It is cold tonight, and the first snow of the winter has arrived.  It's been pouring with rain all day today, so not ventured out at all.  Tomorrow is going to be fine according to the forecast, so will make up for a day in with a long walk to Rothersthorpe returning via the locks on the Northampton arm and back down the towpath.

I just had to do some housework today, and took enough of Lucy's hairs off the carpet to make a woolly jumper!  I love her really though, but Oh boy does she cause some mess this time of year shedding her summer coat for a warmer variety.

Apart from that I have been just browsing on the internet today, noticing that Andrew Denny and Grannybuttons will shortly be passing us on his trip down to London... Hope you stop and say Hi Andrew

I also have found some new software for editing my photos, I have been very disappointed lately that when I have labelled them not only has the letters come out blurred, but paintshop pro has been degrading the photos too.  I am not a big 'graphics' type person, I never seem to have the patients with paintshop pro.  This new program is Photolightning, and it seems excellent and very user friendly, so lets hope from now on the snaps will be a lot better.  My camera is only a cheapie though, not wanting to buy anything expensive for fear of dropping it over the side.

Chas and Ann on Moore 2 Life have started a blog about their life aboard their boat, great stuff both of you, well done.  I know Chas is enjoying exploring blogger already, it's really great to see. I hope to persuade Chas to add a webfeed once he has played with it for a while. ;)

Gonna pull the chair close to the fire now and pour myself something warming, well its snowing, it's an excuse?
