A really cold night again last night as the fire just took the edge off the biting cold before the central heating kicked in. With the water we got yesterday this enabled us to have nice long showers to freshen up.. The canal coating of ice is now thicker than ever due to the minus seven temperatures we got last night and the bitter winds we have been getting. At midday we set off the catch the bus to Crick. We were meeting up with Del's mum Pat and husband Keith in the Red Lion Pub. The bus took about ten minutes and cost us £1.60 each way. The food here is good quality and great prices and it comes recommended. It was lovely to see them and catch up on all the things going on. When we left them we walked to the post office to post a few letters and then popped into the Co-Op for a couple of things, before getting the bus back to Hillmorton. When we got back it just seemed colder than ever and the wind was biting our faces, we were glad to be back in the warmth of Derwent6. We then got a tap on the boat and opened the side doors to find two police support officers standing there. "Have you seen this man walking around as we are concerned for his safety, he is not dangerous" they said. He was apparently walking around in just a shirt and believe us it was not good in those temperatures. The police helicopter was flying round looking for him as well, gosh lets hope they find him.......
It was nice to just sit by the fire with the telly on and we watched the Folk awards..yep! we love our music......
