As the day draws to a close we have had a couple long days of cruising to get back on to the Grand Union.
The Oxford was short of water in places but we hit the lock restrictions just at the right times

We spent our last night on the Thames in Abingdon known as the Queen of the Thames.
I must admit it did not disappoint, we are now sitting on the Oxford at Thrupp.

We have enjoyed the trip on the Thames but the poor quality of moorings and services has meant that we have had a few long days cruising.
But we have seen some great sunsets.

I have not posted due to poor single, we stayed in Reading whilst the festival was in progress.
We watched the revellers leaving tired and muddied but it sounded like they throughly enjoyed themselves.
