Bye bye Blankie
... was still so great to be with the two of them. For a short time they were the closest friends I had while traveling, thats what its like when you backpack. You make fast friends that are like instant family, so it was sad to say bye to Blankie. We did walk her to the station and waved her farewell as her train went past.

Sandhurst Royal Military College Heritage Days

And now it's 7.30pm and we're about to have ...
Wallingford to Weybridge
... so for a short while. We saw parakeets at Medmenham - we are obviously on the way home! We passed some canoes doing a team building day. At Hurley we lost our chinaman's hat overboard (the lid for our chimney) and we failed to retrieve it with the magnet. The canoes went past. We used the facilities there, and had to operate the lock ourselves as the lock keeper was nowhere to be seen.
