Back on Thames water.

The good weather disappeared as we made our way down two locks on the river Wey to Thames lock where we paid our transit fee to get back on the Thames. The Weybridge moorings were empty as we pulled in.

Gordon and Sue got quite wet working us through the locks, I was dry under my large umbrella watching from the stern, Dot was making pasties for us all.... mmmmm.... the aroma emanating from her galley was making me salivate, a little while later they were devoured with mugs of hot tea.


 I am registered online with Thames Visitor moorings  who administer the EA visitor moorings, a £5 fee was paid, we will stay at least two days (first 24 hours free).

Dot & Gordon take the ferry to Shepperton

For our last supper together we went to the Minnow but not sure if we didn't take to the surroundings or menu but we ended up  eating in the Old Crown opposite.
