Banbury Canal Day
I took the motorbike up to Banbury Canal Day last Sunday. I wasn’t feeling that great but it was lovely to see the town bursting at the scenes with people and stalls all celebrating the canal and ridiculously hot weather. I had a great time catching up with people and looking around. There was something for everyone.
Kayaks
Peter in his barrow boat with some rather fine bunting
Tooleys yard was open and had some good traditional crafts 
and it was so good seeing Atlanta in the dry dock looking really splendid
There were pirates
birds
of various sorts (not to mention Jolly Boatman)
the French Market was great: 
Horse and cart
a bit of sawing
a bit of dancing
The market, people and canal – quite a scene, quite a crowd.

Hello Bones - we pulled in to moor outside The Boat pub late yesterday - we're wondering if you're at home today? We'll be leaving Thrupp about lunch time tomorrow (Monday). We'd love to say hello in person. Kind regards Carol and George NB Rock n Roll
Looks really fun, but nothing about giggling ducks!?
Hi Carol,
Thanks - I won't join you for dinner as I have some stuff prepared (and I am allergic to everything under the sun), but I will pop around for a drink afterwards! Wonderful!
SEe you later!
