So
the snow actually arrived over night, the forecast has been saying
snow for a while and then it never materialised. John cleared the
snow off the solar panels and they actually soaked up some dullness
to top up the batteries. This afternoon we took a stroll up the
first few Marsworth locks to the reservoirs, which was lovely. Our stretch of canal
isn’t frozen (yet), just a bit slushy, but my sister reports it is in Kings Langley
though.

We’ve
both had a touch of flu for over a week now, just when you think
you’re better then it all comes back worse than before, typical of
the flu virus.
Last
week we spent a few days with Heather & Jason up north (on the train). The kids
were thrilled when we surprised them and picked them up from after
school club/nursery. We all had a lovely meal in the amazingly
refurbished Cock & Bottle pub in Tarleton. The main reason for
our trip was to attend Magnus’ first nativity at school, however,
along with us he was unwell & spent a duvet day with us and had
to miss the first performance. His teacher messaged Heather &
suggested he go in to school for the morning performance the next
day, which he did. We had lunch with Colin & Carole from the
Wool Boat who we spent most of last year cruising with. This was our
second trip to the
Cock & Bottle.
