Better weather today ...

 ... that’s what the forecasters say anyway ... at 09:30 this morning it didn’t look too bad at all
 There must be something more interesting than narrowboats passing
 We’d been warned about the bridge - the current from the other side pushes you against the right had wall of the bridge - it did too, we managed to get through though with about an inch to spare!
 The River Thames creates two islands at Radcott and are connected by the three bridges in my previous post
 Another cracked willow ...
 Fishing for crayfish on the Thames
 Nice extension!
We've just come around the bend above... 
... and the next one comes up immediately - great fun!
Grafton Lock house (1896) ...
... and it’s lovely gardens ...
 ... and this group of ‘mixed’ mallards who came along for the ride.
 The sentry!
 It’s been a bit mizzley and drizzly on and off all morning ...
 10:45 and the sky is getting lighter
 Approaching the moorings at Kelmscott Manor - I hope there’s room for us...
Well there was! and these were our first visitors.
I’m off to visit Kelmscott Manor - looking forward to that!
