What a lovely day

After breakfast we moved up to Samuelson Bridge just before Banbury and paid a visit to Morrisons for supplies. 

Then on to Banbury where we dropped off our food waste and rubbish. 

Next into Banbury Lock where there were several people watching our every move. Luckily we did everything right and even managed to have a chat with some of the onlookers. 

The weather is splendid today. Factor 50 sunscreen for the captain and a large floppy hat. 

At Bourton Lock it looks as if someone is renovating the lock cottage.

That's great news and we can't wait to see what it's like next time we come this way.

We've stopped near Williamscot again in an attempt to avoid further travelling in the heat of the day.

Even managed to get a late lunch outside. 

Then spent some time with the pressure washer removing leaves and duck poo from the roof. The pressure washer is battery powered and the water comes straight out of the canal. 

And this is where we've stopped. The only thing is that there are 2 ducks who have tried to share our lunch, been on the roof a couple of times before being shooed away. Let's hope I don't have to get the pressure washer out again tomorrow.
