Thames Ditton and friends

25th Sept Wednesday

We pootled to Hampton Court and met George and Carol for a short boat trip with them just up to Sunbury and back. Very pleasant especially as it was sunny and hot. Lost the 'proper' mooring we had outside the palace by so doing unfortunately but managed to moor on the end of the row of boats and tie up to trees when we got back. This is a beautiful mooring.

George and Carol had invited us for dinner, which was a delicious one as usual with them ( they are fantastic cooks). Another great evening with good friends and much wine (and whisky?!). I don't think we will live down the dreadful stuff we contributed - grocers at Molesey not being the best wine merchants. And Pete didn't take his glasses! G and C tipped us off to getting the train back one stop, instead of doing the mile walk back to the boat, which was perfect and we even managed to climb back on board without tripping over the ropes.

Another lovely day and evening.
