Do I look ready for a blue rinse and a crimplene frock? No, don't answer that!
We left our peacefull overnight spot and arrived at Marsworth top lock intime 
to watch a pair of Wyvern boats, engaged in a team building exercise, 
decending. We waited and then shared the flight with another boat that 
contained a young pair who were 'managing' the exercise. She (J) was lockside 
whilst he (T) steered.
Come elevenses time I got cake for us and as I am well brung up, gave them a 
slice each. I pointed to the cake on their slide and said to J "you have cake". 
"yes" she replied " we have cake" (sounds like a Serbo Croat language lesson) " 
do you need some my dear?" she added " I can get you some" 
I informed her that what I had said was a statement and not a rhetorical 
question  "oh!" she added " I did think it was a but odd" then she realised 
that I had given them cake and was sooooo pleased.
As the locks were passed through, she got all excited as normal procedure was 
followed - " its like team building world on the canal!" she said.
We left them at Marsworth and continued north, passing Allan Cazally at 
Pitstone wharf and made our way to Slapton wharf where we filled the water tank 
and washed 4 weeks of grime off of Jannock. Winded and are now moored for the 
night.
Graham caught 3 crayfish today which we eat for tea.
