It's muggy along the Cam

Baits Bite Lock to Nr Waterbeach, River Cam, 1.5 miles 0 locks

I have had a headache for most of the day today, its muggy and humid here on the Cam. No sun or rain, just an overcast sky.. We got our Tesco delivery this morning from a very cheerful chappie who was intrigued as to how we managed to order online!

Not long after we packed it all away, Vic and I went to the Milton Country Park, Lucy was delighted, she loved it there yesterday.  Well at least today it wasn’t raining… had a nice cuppa at the Park Centre, it really is a delightful place.  A couple of lakes that were once working pits.  Great for families, and there were a lot of youngsters enjoying the playparks as well as the walks and lakes.  I thought the facilities for fishing were great there for families, although at the moment it is closed season, the fishing platforms are well made and flat, and the charge for a days fishing is just a fiver, very fair.

We have some post to pick up at Waterbeach on Saturday, well as well as post, Wendie is sending me the data lead for the camera that I left at her house at the weekend thank goodness… At least there will be some pics on the blog next week!   Anyway, we moved down just a bit today for a different back garden.  We might just start on the roof tomorrow if the weather is OK… Ho hum, yes the roof needs stripping and repainting.  I think once we have made a start it will be done quite quickly, it’s just a case of getting started

Yesterday evening there were moorhens taking turns sitting on their eggs, this morning there were three moorhen chics exploring the river… ah such is life on the river, there is always something of interest, something that makes being retired to the waterways such a fabulous way of life.
