Messing about on the river.


After 25 years of marriage, Bev and I decided we needed more time together...hanging out together and going to places together that we both like. So today, being our day off, we went to Henley-on-Thames and took a pic nic and a friend's boat out for a trip down river. Henley is famous for the Henley Royal Regatta held each year in June.
We like boats and rivers. It was glorious - warm sunshine and golden autumn colours.
We saw lots of birds including great crested-grebe, cormorant and red kite as well as the more common swans, mallards, coots and pigeons.
There are always jobs to be done around the house (and money things to sort out) but it is good to stop and just go somewhere nice - like Henley.
