Cruising on the beautiful South Oxford canal from Wigrams through Fenny Compton down the Claydon locks and onto Cropedry Marina. Beautiful weather and great friends. We cruised for free all weekend keeping the batteries topped up with sunshine. Thanks to Wigrams Turn Marina Limited and Cropredy Marina Elton Moss Boat Company Ortomarine

What a week! Anthony dropped the steel hatch of our boat onto his hand and was sure he had broken a couple of fingers. The next day we popped to the walk in centre at A&E in Rugby, seven hours later we found out he had no broken fingers but then our van broke down. We called Green Flag, meanwhile Pete drove over with sandwiches for us and to see if he could help. No joy with the mechanic so he sent for a pick up truck which dropped Anthony off at a local garage at 1.30am he walked back to our boat and then found out the next day his van has well and truly died and is beyond repair 😞.
Goodbye van, you have served us well and we have many happy memories of our trips together.
Because of the time taken up with the van and trying to find a new one, hire a car etc we are late with this weeks vlog. I’m working on it and hope to get it released very soon.

Who’s that knocking on the boat?

We popped into Wigrams Turn Waterside & Marina for a few days and to get our weekly shop delivered. Such a lovely Marina. Solar panels cleaned, windows cleaned, deck cleaned. If you saw our latest vlog travelling from Crick to Braunston you may have noticed some dusty solar panels. We actually got back from Whitchurch with our belongings at midnight the night before, stayed up until 1.30am unpacking and then set off cruising, we just didn’t have time to clean the roof or find the products to clean it with. Dexters Star now looks all shiny and new again. 🧡
