5th August
I left Pete to do the shopping and go canoeing and took the train from Oxford to Finsbury Park to spend the day with my boys, Fran, grandchildren and extended family, Ann, Adam, Romany and Zeb. I had a wonderful day with them all and Olly and Fran gave us all a great lunch with Olly dodging the rain to BBQ. We actually managed to find a warm part of the day to sit and eat in their pretty, newly planted garden which was something given this choppy changey weather.
My little grandson kept us amused watering the patio (?!) and singing his whole repertoire of songs - "let's do it again!" - accompanied by his new tambourine (present from Ann and family) with me on maracas and Ann on castanets. We got a lot of applause. Might be a new band in the making here.
Got back to the boat around 8.30pm, Pete meeting my train. Poor chap had not paddled as there had been a huge thunderstorm at the time he had wanted to go. This weather is infuriating.
We watched the amazing Usain Bolt lose his final race in London before going to bed.
