Email: Doing it right

Published: Wednesday, 16 May 2012

We left our moorings at Ventnor Farm Marina and went through Calcutt Locks where we shared a lock with first time hirers from Calcutt Boats.

There was a member of Calcutt's staff on board instructing them on the working of a lock, he then went with them to the junction with the Oxford canal before jogging back to instruct his next hirer.

It can be done properly.

We went on to have dinner at the Bridge, by bridge number 111 on the Oxford. It was one of the best restaurant meals I have had in many years, Great food.
