After a lovely eve with Bob & Kath we thought we would change plans a little. Hire a car for a few days go to the Boat show, pop down South and hopefully stay with our wonderful friends, Gill & Brian. Visit Barry's parents. Go over to see our lovely daughter and son in law our FAB grand daughter and of corse see the new addition their puppy.
So several phone calls made and Gill said 'Yes' car hire all sorted and we have decided to put boat in the new Croperdy Marina. Then we went on line to get our Advance Senior tickets but needed an address to send them. Decided to wander round to see Bob & Kath to use their Marina address. Well now the deal is we could have tickets on condition we help showing nb Far Away at Crick. Great just up my street talking to people about boats. fantastic!
Then we chatted about our brass mushrooms which have gone horribly dull and I wanted Barry to paint them red. 'What' said Bob 'you can't do that, bring the boat round and will uses an electric buffer to clean them up' 
We had been talking 'power' last night as it a subject we boaters always talk about! We had decided to get rid of our Microwave, takes up too much room and never use it. Or when I do Barry nearly has heart failure. So we traded the Mrcowave for tickets and bright shinny mushrooms. How's that for good old fashion trading!
Moved on to Top Lock at Cropredy beautiful afternoon and the day finished on a high as The Gunners won the F A cup 3 - 2.
So it's cards now and a glass of the Red Stuff
