Stayed put today, the weather has been awful, persistently raining all morning then showery in the afternoon. Managed a walk into town between showers to purchase a few items, Sue stayed on the boat and has been baking cakes for Klara's crew and ourselves.
Weybridge high street has changed for the better, I used to come to Saturday night dances at the Ship Hotel during my late teens, then I seem to remember it was a bit run down, now it is part of the Best Western chain with fine dining & a wedding venue.
Morrisons, Waitrose, WH Smiths and Boots are close along with every bank known to man, estate agents that a man of my means shouldn't bother to look in, a Slug & Lettuce pub and Subway bar along with various niche cafe's and bistros. All within easy walking distance from this mooring.
We will be moving on tomorrow even though the forecast is looking a bit iffey again.
