To Wallingford and Beyond!!!!!

Eventually, the Thames calmed down  and off we went...

So, nine days since the last post, where have we been? NOWHERE! Well, we made it to Reading, but only just as the Thames was in full, fast and furious flow. Red boards went up at all the locks so no choice but to stay moored on the Forbury Loop between Reading jail and HomeBase.  A bit of a worry in the event of a mass breakout in case we were hijacked for a quick getaway...In the end, it was HomeBase to the rescue and we spent the time replacing the kitchen tiles.

Yeah, this is it calmer...

 The birds were entertaining too!

We had wanted to stop here overnight but there was the not-so-small matter of a mooring fee...
Moving on , we moored at Clifton Lock. Should be in Oxford tomorrow. Wonder what the mooring fees will be there...
