Another early start and we were away by 0730hrs. The river was very still but within a couple of hours the wind was up. We are under pressure to get to Billing on Tuesday, so there wasn't time to stop off anywhere. However we have made note of places that we can explore on our homeward journey.
We had a brief look at the new marina in Ringstead - it only has six boats in it at the moment and no facilities laid on.
We stopped for breakfast and spent another half an hour chatting to a couple who are building their own narrowboat. They are going to Crick later this month so have arranged to meet them there.
We reached Irthlingborough at about 1430hrs and went for a walk in the village before settling down for the rest of the day. We were so tired - not used to all this physical work - that we were in bed by 2130hrs.
