The water up the Ashby has been getting very shallow in places now with this dry spell we have had.. We are on quite a good spot and Derwent6 had made its place in the mud but we were starting to lean a tad.. We had a boat in front of us which seemed to be in a deep spot but we love it here so much we stuck with it.. The sunsets have been fantastic and the wildlife is so great you don't need a telly, oh and Tooty is in his element, and we are getting plenty of solar.
We got a text from David and Lisa on nb What a Lark saying they were on their way back to us and was there room, and of course there was and of course the chairs came out..
We walked up to the pub, which takes 20 minutes, and had a fantastic meal with good company. We can recommend this place as the food is tremendous and worth every penny.
We were left on our own the following day as David and Lisa set off early (or sparrows as Lisa calls it) as it was another warm one and they wanted to get as far as they could before it got too hot.. The boat in front of us moved off as well and we stole his deep spot and we were now completely floating again. Storms were on the cards, but we didn't get them so the BBQ came out again.
It was the perfect evening. All on our own, so we have Country Music playing from the doors of Derwent6 and the smell of Pork loin chops on the barbee, with a beer in hand, what is there not to like.. The following day was a scorcher and we were pleased of the shade we had, but we could see the storms coming..
Sure enough it poured down but later in the evening We love this life!!!!
