Wonderment

We decided to hire a small barge for the day.

The kids loved it, even Libbie who has the attention span of a fish.

There were a few crashes, some dodgy moments as we met other barges in the 30 minute long 'Tunnel of Death', and a very helpful old lady as mooring near the pub for lunch proved trickier than first thought. She did walk away shaking her head and muttering in a loud voice though, so I was slightly less grateful.

The pub lunch was truly dreadful, but the sun was shining and the kids played in a wood, so it didn't seem to matter that we will probably all come down with botchulism tomorrow.
