There was no rush to get up this morning so I had a nice lie in with
breakfast in bed :-) I thought I would
send FL a text to see what time they would be passing us so I could wave only
to get a reply that they were behind us!
We went in for a cuppa and chat and returned to Mary H to get ready to
go out to lunch.
We took the ferry across the river to the Shepperton side and were met
by one of my old friends, Andy, who took us back to their house where Chris was
making a lovely lunch – the smell of roasting chicken was lovely. Chris and Andy live opposite where I used to
live in Shepperton and their youngest daughter, Hazel, is the same age as
Victoria. We had a lovely catch-up
afternoon but it was soon time to go back and catch the last ferry back to
Weybridge.
The ferry is expensive at £3 each for a return ticket but the young
ferryman told us that our ticket would give us £3 off in Nauticalia (they run
the ferry). We wanted a couple of things
so went in and in fact got £4.50 off! So
the ferry only cost us £2.50!
We had arranged that when we got back we would go to the pub with FL
and Klara so we toddled up to the Old Crown and had a couple of drinks. This must be the final farewell!!
We got back to the boat to this lovely sunset.
I have to confess that the first two photos were taken a couple of
years ago on a beautiful sunny day – it wasn’t like that today sadly :-( But they are the same views as we have had this year.
