Dave managed to cruise The Maisibert across the Edstone Aqueduct despite high winds.

This weekend Dave and Sue visited us and despite the rain we managed a short cruise which ended with a meal with Rita and Scooby.

So that I could help with the locks Rita cruised Festina Lente with The Maisibert strapped to the side.

Yesterday we tackled the Hatton Flight which consists of 21 locks

Whilst the girls were in the church Scooby and myself went to discover the Castle.

Before we left Warwick Hilary and Rita visited the Collegiate Church of St Mary with its ornate ceilings and stain glass windows.

We have moved on to Warwick this afternoon with Rita and Scooby, which ended up us having a drink or two in the Cape of Good Hope.

Before we left Leamington Spa today we had a quick look around the gardens, they were showing signs of the local goverment cut backs.

We left Brauston on on a very wet Thursday after having repairs carried out on the cratch cover at A. J. Canopies, we tried to leave Hilary at Lower Shuckburgh but she managed to escape.

This weekend was the oficial start of our summer cruise and Craig, Claire, Darren, Maisie, Ray, Sacha and Elaine helped ourselves, Jackie,John Rita and Scooby up Buckby locks and into Braunston today.
Last night we had a great evening in the New Inn at Buckby Top Lock.

We have spent the last few weeks in Braintree where we celebrated Claire and Craig's 25th birthday with a bowling session and a family get together on the day of their birthday.
