Rivers Lee and Stort

After attending Ray’s very successful Pub Party, by tube from Little Venice, we have joined the Rivers Lee and Stort and cruised both to Bishops Stortford and Hertford. Once the long drag from East London is over, these rivers are a gem. The traffic is negligible, the scenery outstanding and life is very pleasant.

 

Terry and Wendy Stark spent a day with us, boating from Sawbridgeworth to Roydon.

 

By chance we found a Netto store selling Marston’s Single Malt at 99p for 500ml. An absolute bargain!

 

Purely by chance we discovered our ISP at home had gone, “tits up”! Nick did a bit of research and sent the results by email, so I have signed up with TalkTalk, to be connected in September. If the service is as good as the shop I went in it will be superb.

 

Incidently we have been relying on unsecured wireless networks for internet connection and generally it does not take much walking to find one.

 

We are now making our way slowly to Limehouse, where we will lockout on to the Thames at 0545 on Wednesday, Minima Yacht Club for the evening.

 

Terry and June
