Moved the boat up to the junction as our 48hours was up by the Marina. Needed to get water etc and it seemed like everyone else had the same idea. So we had to wait patiently, not something that Baz is good at! Anyway eventually moored up about 12 30 and I popped up to the village and had a haircut. Went for a walk in the afternoon.

Our 44th Wedding Anniversary!
We had decided to go to The Tower of London to see the poppies that are being placed all around the moat of the Tower.
Got the bus to Rugby and the train to Euston,then the tube across to Tower bridge. They are truly amazing and it's a very moving experience to think each poppy represents a human life and they are only half way to completing filling the moat.
We had fish and chips at Traitors Gate and sat and enjoyed the view of Tower bridge. To our surprise the bridge began to open and a tall ship went through. Another 1st, never seen the bridge opening.
We wandered some more then headed back home getting back about 6.30. Lovely day.
Saturday 6th Sept
