A perfect end to a perfect weekend
As I sit here I was reflecting on my perfect weekend listening to Maffi playing his guitar. AS I was writing my blog I realised that I didn't need to worry about my next magazine article, I could write about it for that!!!! We had a great time, full of adventure and fun with new visitors (keith aka Jelunga) and a trip along the canal on Ocelot (Steves new boat) as well as an attempt to turn my new dinghy into a submarine.
This morning Mr Cool, who decided he was too cool to mess about in the dinghy until saturday night, couldn't get his hands on the dinghy quick enough. I was told he would do the taxi and he would deliver me, by dinghy, to the bottom of the Oxford so I could walk up to work the short way. I did suggest that I was quite capable of walking from where I was (and walking was perhaps quicker), but that was not acceptable, and I was summoned. There I was in my best clothes trying to look professional in a lifejacket and a boat half full of rain water, being delivered through the mist to the bottom of the oxford with a grinning baffoon on the tiller talking to the ducks and trying to get passengers. I have never been so pleased to get out of a boat in my life!
Actually, it was really good fun!
