It
was raining when we woke up or at least when Richard woke up. I just couldn’t wake up and ended up with
breakfast in bed – aren’t I spoilt?! We
pulled over to the wharf and filled up with water and emptied the toilet
cassettes. I don’t know - in one end and
out the other!
I
then spent the morning resurrecting about six days’ worth of blog which I had
managed to lose yesterday. I very rarely
close my laptop down - usually hibernating it and I type the blog into a Word
document before copying it into Blogger.
I think what had happened was that the document hadn’t saved itself
properly as it was too big and it was slowing the laptop down to such an extent
that I rebooted and lost the lot!!
Fortunately I managed to find a back-up but it had no photos so I had to
start again. Anyway I am now up to date
thank goodness.

We
stopped for lunch at Honey Street having only done 7.5 miles – most of which
was on tick-over as we passed all the liveboards (maybe I should call them
bridge hoppers so not to confuse them with other people who live aboard and are
continuous cruisers). We need to be in
Hungerford on Friday evening as we are meeting up with friends.
The rain started as were approaching Pewsey so we pulled over and
moored up for the night. Goodness only
knows what is going on at Pewsey - the visitors moorings are just thick with
undergrowth and the towpath is almost invisible in places and muddy. I couldn’t even shut the side hatch without
getting grass in the boat! We have
stopped at Pewsey before and it wasn’t the greatest of places to stop then but
this time was far worse :-(
