We are taking the family out on the boat tomorrow, so today my wife and I are making preparations. We go to Wayford Bridge (where our boat is moored) to check that the engine will start (it did), make sure that the bilge pump is working properly (it is) and to give the whole boat a bit of a clean.
We then head over to Spixworth to say happy birthday to my sister-in-law, give her her card and present, and to film her for one of my vlogs. The filming goes well, and I’m pleased with what my sister-in-law says in response to my questions. One down and about half a dozen or so to go!
We head back to Southrepps just as darkness is falling – the nights are really drawing in now, which is a reminder that summer is well and truly over. Fingers crossed that the weather stays fine for our family trip down the river tomorrow!
