A Short Walk?

We were expecting to have a quiet day yesterday after a lazy breakfast and few cups of coffee in The Square Sail, we set out on what was going to be a short walk up Steep Hill and around the top end of Lincoln. Well a little over two hours later we eventually made it back to Naughty-Cal. We had walked a bit further then expected, a good 7.5 miles in fact as we walk at a very brisk pace.

A little weary we untied and set off back for our home berth. We knew that the wind was due to pick up later in the afternoon and it is no fun being blown around when trying to moor up a light boat so we made a break for it while the wind was not too bad.

Settled onto our mooring I fired up the slow cooker and set the steak and ale casserole off cooking, filling the boat with a lovely smell all afternoon and into the early evening. With the boat being blown around, the rain pattering on the canopies and the heating ticking away we settled in with a few beers and a few tunes until the casserole and dumplings were ready to eat.
