Date -4 March 07 Day - Sunday Start - Cropredy 1020 End - Napton home moorings 1720
Last night was magnificent, a clear sky with a full moon and lots of stars, as we were moored at Cropredy there was very little light about and we were able to watch the eclipse of the moon on and off from about 2145 until midnight, when it was just a copper coloured disk in the sky. This morning while we were taking the dog for a walk it started to rain and its still raining as I send this, consequently I got quite damp. We met more boats this morning than we have all week, several Ownerships and a couple of Kate Boats, one at Cropredy that was having its alternator replaced, in addition to this there was only a coupe of private boats. Just before lunch Diana called up that there was a wet patch on the bed, now it wasn't me and it wasn't the dog. It was the seal failing on the Bullseye in the roof of the boatmans cabin right above the bed. This will need removing and resealing, but there is no chance of that in this weather so at the moment there is a rubber mat laid over it to keep the rain off. We stopped for a while at Fenny Compton for lunch when another Ownership passed us, this was the last boat we were to see on the move the rest of the way home. -- Brian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Visit this site and help save our waterways http://www.savethewaterways.org.uk/
