A three week cruise to the middle levels.

When our neighbours, John and Rita, on narrowboat Izzyinn II mentioned that they were planning to cruise off for 3 weeks in September, we said we'd try to join them, though we did wonder if we'd be taking a chance on the weather and the possibility of the river going onto fast flow. add to that a recurring problem with our BMC 1800 overheating and spitting it's coolant out. and my, very unpredictable, rock and roll work timetable, would it ever happen?
Typically at the first lock we breasted up, opposite the boats moored at Willy Watts Marina, then another narrowboat appeared. We waved him through and left John & Rita to follow us, with Glenda resetting the lock.
