Wednesday 29th August 2006 Cookham to Penton Hook We got off quite late in the morning, just before a lock full of boats, and kept ahead of them to Maidenhead. I decided to go around the back of the island below the lock, and so got behind the narrowboat, and dutch barge we were ahead of. At the next lock we missed out on the penning.
We had a fairly boring run down, with nothing really happening out of the ordinary. We stopped above the lock at Penton Hook, just above the lock moorings. This is a fairly good spot, apart from 1/3 of the planes out of Heathrow flying overhead. At least you don't get the landing planes, so it was quiet in the morning. --- Mike Askin nb.
