Well the day went pretty much according to plan, rain held off so a pleasant day’s cruise. Watered up at Dundas before stopping for lunch at Claverton. Continued on to Bathampton for a very pleasant evening meal at The George Inn. This location is one of the favourite photo locations (during the summer) and attached is a photo of the boat moored outside of the public house, as can be seen a very comfortable walk from the boat to the pub!. Tomorrow we move on to Bath hoping to moor until Thursday to enable me to get back to Torquay on Wednesday for a dental appointment. Originally booked a hire car, which was quite pricey at £31 per day (plus fuel) but then checked train fares and found that I could make the trip for £21 return, hire care dumped and train fare booked!
