Rainy Day Boating


Here we are again at the bottom of Sheepwash on a rainy morning.  This time it's a left as we head towards our final destination of Brentwood Junction getting on for 100 miles downstream.


Osney Lock and its electric.


Just a tad wet, but what a star. Who would think he had been up all night with the trots!!!


Folly Bridge


Very up market boat houses.


A lovely looking houseboat.



These geese take exception to us using the lock!



More Thames wildlife.


Sandford Lock and it's a big one...



Electronic and self service.


It is so so wide.


Only another 85 miles of this glorious river until we get to Teddington.


Moored at Abbington, our resting place last night.


Now that's what you call a weir.


Skyline at Abingdon.


Approaching Culham Lock and there are four boats behind us.


The two cruisers squeeze in with us.


Yep another brave lady swimming the Thames.


We do love these old wooden boats.


A thatched boat house????


Shillingford.


Tree trimming Thames style.


Moored at Wallingford and off to explore.



The main square.

Tomorrow we are heading for Reading.
