Accompanying another . . .

Yesterday I had the opportunity to have an outing on a narrowboat with Rod Lee, Vicar of St. Columba, Corby, where daughter Liz and her family worship. This was quite unexpected and very pleasant.

Rod moors the boat he shares with three others at Welford Basin Wharf on the Welford Arm of the Grand Union Canal - a very pretty and quiet spot. Although I am on sabbatical, it was good to be able have some fellowship over the tiller, supplied from time to time with hot drinks by Rod's wife, Glenda.

It was only a short trip down the arm and on to the winding hole at Downtown Bridge and return, but it was really relaxing and worthwhile.
