Heading Back To The Marina

By this time, the 'lock down' was in place and all the pubs and restaurants had closed. The leisure boaters were requested to return to base and go home.

We ambled back to the marina reckoning we were pretty much self-isolating on Stella.

We envied the people in this lovely canal side house who were locked down there

Our final night's mooring above the bottom lock at Napton

Rousham House & Gardens 2

The gardens were not very spectacular in March, we were the only ones there, and it rained.

This was our mooring at Little Heyford

We walked one and a half miles to Rousham House.

Lots of bantams!

Here we are at our base, Wigrams Turn Marina before setting off down the South Oxford Canal.

Recently went to a Stubbs exhibition at Milton Keynes art gallery near the theatre.

Here's a few of the many paintings which were on display.

Home Haircut

Don't be silly - of course there's no photo. Suffice to say, S.W.M.B.O. did a pretty decent job. Needs must in these strange times.
It comes home to you how strange these times are when Saffie our cat says, "Do you want me to leave the radio on for you while I go out?".
