That classic pic at Cropredy

Moored Williamscot, Oxford Canal

Further to my blog yesterday Paul has sent me the link to HIS classic pic at Cropredy taken by his son Andrew, and it is much more interesting and significant than either Andrew's or mine.  In fact it is when his new boat was put in the water on arrival there from Reeves the shell builder a couple of weeks ago!.. I think my mind is playing tricks on me because I only looked at this pic the other day when going to Paul’s site to see how things were going, I couldn’t have taken it in properly, because I was searching all over for it, but I was looking for a hire boat.. Paul’s usual way of travelling the waterways.. that is, until April next year!

Mike of NB Globetrotter showed a picture of Chris’s boat Serius on his blog last month.. On the way through Reading they were.. Globetrotter was also daubed in the night, but Serius seems to have attracted a rather twisted graffiti writer..

We will be passing through Reading soon, ‘passing through’ being the important bit!!
