Embarkation.

We enjoyed a farewell roast lunch on Sunday at the Stag and Pheasant with Paul and Lynne. Monday we moved along onto the water tap where we met up with Bracken and her master who was also filling up his tank. We discussed our cruising plans for the summer together, he is going north and we are heading south.

His dog Bracken is a seven year old rescue dog who is very loyal and loves boating and long walks. She is very friendly, has such a lovely face and her coat is very soft when you stroke her. She is also very alert and as soon as the hose was wound up and stowed away she jumped up into her cruising position on the top of the boat. We turned around at the bottom of Hillmorton locks and headed off for Rugby. Quite a few boaters seem to have got that spring feeling and are on the move now.
