Hello Friends & Family,
At last! We think we will escape and go to
Plymouth very early tomorrow. We have been on a mooring buoy for
four days at Dittisham. We did blow up the rubber duck and go ashore
yesterday and have also cruised up the river and back to give the engine a
run. Everything is charged for here. We went ashore on
the Greenway side this morning and were greeted with a demand for 75p each just
for parking the dinghy! We walked up past the Greenway house which
belonged to Agatha Christie (now National Trust) but it was
closed.
This evening we are parked on the town jetty and
able to charge the batteries and have a wander round the town. I am
looking forward to a shower and Graham has decided he fancies fish and
chips! He doesn't seem to mind being smelly!
Once we are in Plymouth we will be able to do
the laundry and we are then heading home for Ali & Anthony's
wedding.
