After a wonderful weekend with the Cutweb Rally at the Blue Lias pub, we set off for home. The intended route is via Oxford and the Thames. We shared the locks with a fellow club member as far as the junction with the Oxford Canal and after that had a really good run right up to the summit and as far as Claydon Locks. On the way, Belmont, a fellow Braidbar Boat said hallo and said that our friends were at the top of Claydon, and indeed we found Barabara and Malcolm there. Stopped for a chat. Pressing on, I have not had the bike out this time,so progress was of necessity a little slower and as this flight is all on the curve, synchronisation with other boats is not easy. After a sunny start to the day, heavy rain showers were now the norm, so well short of the Cropredy Town Lock we moored up for the night.
