Missing links.

Set off out of Aston Marina by 10:00 and moored up in Stone by 12:00, visited the Titanic pub (The Royal Exchange) where we bumped into Phil and his pooch Freddie who had kitchen passes for a couple of hours, we last met up with Phil at the pub last winter along with the rest of the Aston Marina Friday early doors crew. Phil is looking forward to this winters gathering although it will somewhat be depleted.....The mad as a hatter crew of EHC, the batty fruitcakes of FD and the pair of crackers from Caxton will be elsewhere, Michelle the landlady was her usual bubbly self, free bowls of chips were presented to us to welcome us.

Phil & Sue
