Cassiobury locks in the rain, as can be seen from the puddles on the towpath it has been raining a bit today. There was plenty of room to moor up below this, the bottom lock, in plenty of deep water. Paddy isn’t going to like the puddles this evening when I take him for his walk.

Last night we had a lovely time celebrating with family, and friends of my eldest sister and her husband, their Golden Wedding anniversary with a grand party held at their youngest son’s school in Apsley, where he is caretaker, which is rather handy see we were moored in Apsley.
