Sadly our year’s cruising was coming to an end even sooner than we’d planned, as due to a couple of lock and bridge closures we needed to be at Mercia Marina by early November, a month earlier than expected.
On the way down from Birmingham the signs of changing season were becoming more obvious with autumnal leaves and early mists.

We’d like to wish everyone from near and far a very Happy New Year, and look forward to connecting with you in person, or online, in 2016.
Unbelievable photo’s again Barry. Always look forward to seeing them. Happy New Year to you and Sandra. Ray and Pauline. xx
Hi Ray and Pauline
Ah thanks for that – Barry loved this collection too. You may have to wait until the end of the year before seeing any more lol! Hopefully not …
Happy New Year to you both too, and we hope we get a chance to share your delightful company once again in 2016. xx
Happy New Year to you both.
Thank you Carol, and to you 😉
