Being the last weekend before the bank holiday weekend we know that at some point we will have to put a splash of diesel in the tank if we are to make it to our intended long weekend destination. But we can do that on our way back into the marina on Sunday.
So where to go?
We don't fancy venturing too far. In fact we are quite looking forward to heading nowhere on Friday evening and having a quiet night in with a film and and a nice chilli that I rustled up earlier in the week which is now sat in the freezer waiting to be reheated.
But where to head on Saturday?
The weather looks set to be dry if a little over cast and not overly warm. So with this in mind we think we will head down on to the Witham and with a bit of luck grab a mooring at Fiskerton Fen.
Fingers crossed we can get a mooring as with so many other navigations struggling with water levels this year the Fossdyke and Witham have seen a huge increase in the numbers of visiting boats. Great for the local economy and waterside pubs of course, but a real impact on the availability of the already limited visitor moorings.
The pontoon at Fiskerton is not the longest to start with. Three narrowboats and it is full. But we can live in hope I suppose.
