308. The 'wife' and I go boating, from Abingdon to Reading

A long-standing viewer offered me and my "canal wife" (aka good friend) Lorna the use of his boat on the upper River Thames for a few days - thanks Ed! - which we were delighted to accept. This is the first of two videos of that trip.

Ed (who owns the boat) has now refurbished it and is hiring it out! See his Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...
