Waiting for rain at Wootton Rivers

Moored Wootton Rivers, K&A Canal

I waited and waited for the rain today… it didn’t turn up, so I decided to go out walking.. but of course, as soon as I left down it came, and with that I decided that I wasn’t in the mood anymore, just didn’t feel like a soaking today.

I did a few bits on the computer today, and phoned the coal boat, but that is at Seend, the other side of Devizes and the Caen Hil Flight of locks. Andy will not be back with in this area until the end of December.  We had hoped to buy our coal from him, but not at this time, I will find a local supplier and ask it to be dropped off at a bridge or some other access point. 

The T Mobile connection that I now have has not been good around these parts, but Orange seem OK, so I have paid my £1.00 for the day to use the internet with no limits to the amount I download or upload, so I am happy enough with that.  Yesterday I was almost at a point of chucking the computer into the canal!!

So nothing much to report today really, I am off to Marlborough tomorrow to have a look around.  I remember going there last time we were in the area, it’s a nice town.

Oh and it’s Vic’s birthday tomorrow too!..   Party time in the evening me thinks!!
