The cruise back to the boatyard safely navigated within good time and the boat surprisingly returned intact. We then motored the few miles back to Bradford on Avon for a final breakfast at the Lock Inn Cafe where most of us were restrained apart from Paddy and Brian who had the Boatman’s Breakfast – what a plateful! A good breakfast but not actually quite as good as those we had become used to – fried bread definitely greasier!
A thoroughly enjoyable week I hope was had by all with the good fortune of no rain - amazing during the second week of March. For me it brought back splendid memories of previous canal ventures, the last of which was some 24 years ago. If they wanted a repeat I would suggest venturing further north into the Midlands! Watch this space.
