We’re just sitting in the Swan Inn in Isleworth where we stayed last night, waiting for high water so we can set off and ride teh tide rather than fight it.
I must confess to being a bit worried: paddling through central London with all the pleasure craft on a hot, sunny, July Saturday will, I suspect, be quite stressful, especially as we’ll be travelling quite quickly by the time we’re there as we’ll be assisted by both tide and current… hey, it’s why we do it I suppose.
We’ve changed our plans as well, rather than staying over tonight in Docklands we’re going home as we just discovered our getting out point is further away from the hotel than originally believed and we’d have been carrying the boat for a mile and a half along fairly busy roads – going home’s a better plan!
