Many times, people write to us saying
how lucky we are in the things that we are able to do, and this November
weekend was a perfect example. We were invited to stay on our friend's longboat
and sail up the canal, mooring overnight and sharing wonderful vegetarian
meals. The autumn weather was perfect for socialising and taking the
photographs you see below. |
