Copperkins ll

This is Copperkins ll, with our good friends Rob and Susan aboard. Well, actually just Rob as Susan is behind me operating the lock with Helen. They are only out for a week and met up with us on Tuesday evening East of Birmingham. They then travelled with us the next day under Spaghetti Junction and down the Grand Union canal to Catherine de Barnes where we had a very enjoyable dinner in the Boat Inn (thanks Rob and Susan). They then had to turn around and head back to their base as they have to be back in Bristol on Monday.

Really good to see them again after they had to pull out of visiting us in the summer and we hope to rendezvous with them and Copperkins ll again around the New Year.
