Date - 30 Aug 06 Day - Wednesday Start - 0900 Abingdon End - 1830 Enslow -- Last night we ate in town at a restaurant called "The Broad Face" This is situated just to the west of the river on the approach to the bridge. The food was very good and the service likewise. We left with "Lord Toulouse" at 9 am this morning and joined the queue for Abingdon Lock, they were only locking two boats through at a time apart from a Dutch Barge who went by himself. As Andrew and Wendy have to be in Braunston by Sunday we let them go in before us. We were to see the back of them at almost every lock for the rest of the day. We had to wait at all the Thames Locks until we got into Oxford and then things changed, we went straight into Godstow and King's Lock and then turned hard right into Dukes cut. Just as we approached the Oxford Canal at 2-15 I received a text from Andrew saying there was a queue of 5 at Duke's Lock. He had come throughOxford and was two boats ahead of me. He stopped soon afterwards to fill with water but we continued on to moor at "The Rock of Gibraltar" in Enslow where we found "Draco" already moored for the night, so we will eat with them in the pub tonight.
