We are out on the canals for a few days to check the recent replacement of Densie's gearbox and leaking water pump and also to attend the marina End of Season Barbeque on Saturday.
After travelling to the boat yesterday (Tuesday) we unpacked ready to start this morning. The cruise is leisurely following our usual route down the South Oxford Canal to Braunston and from there some way along the Grand Union Canal until we decide to turn around.
Nothing new to report about the journey today as we have covered it many times. However it was a pleasure to see a Hobby chasing some of the few swallows still around. We stopped for the day at lunch time a mile from the village of Flecknoe after only 1 hour 50 mins cruising. The boat has been running smoothly and there is no sign of any water leak.
