Green Boat Services were moored near St Helen’s Wharf this morning, taking a rest between helping other boats.
Lady Ethel arrived at around 11:15 and left soon after taking a load of people upstream to Oxford. I was asked by some customers how to get to the landing so directed them through the Upper Reaches carpark.
A rather elegant rowing boat, moored up by the Upper Reaches last night ,left a few minutes later, heading downstream towards Culham.
‘This England’ motored up under Abingdon Bridge having refueled at one of Abingdon’s two refueling places.
Also had a shouted exchange with to the captain of Dylan Thomas, the troubled poet, and stood for a while next to Cloud Cuckoo.
You are going to get a new hobby soon Backstreeter. It’s called Plane Spotting. It will be just great lying on the river bank, looking skywards, watching the Dreamliners skimming over your head.
Sounds like it was a fun and eventful day of boat watching! Great picture too.
