Running total mileage 2243.7 miles

Once again, as planned, we are back in Braunston, good internet signal, no phone! The moorings opposite The Boat pub were all pretty full so we have come further in beyond the marina entrance where there were a few spaces left. We rather hope it isn’t this crowded when we come back at Christmas time.

Refuelled the boat at Calcutt boats with 125.5 litres of diesel which should see us OK until Christmas, in fact we seem OK for most commodities until Christmas, Diesel, Gas, Coal, Kindling etc. Only one small fly in the ointment is the fact that for some unknown reason the chimney has begun to leak (water) so I assume that some seal on it has failed. Will have a look in the various chandleries here to see if they stock some sort of sealant.

 Tomorrow for the weekend shopping and then back along the South Oxford towards Banbury.
