October 1st and temperatures are soaring.

Its been really hot today, so we made only a short journey to The Kings Head near Wadenhoe Lock. The intention was to stay for lunch and then press on in the afternoon. We had a round of sandwiches and a pint and it was so pleasant in the pub garden we decided to have a meal there in the evening and leave early in the morning. Lin had cod and chips and I had belly pork with crackling and potato gratin. It was delicious. When we came through here before we stopped and picked sloes next to the lock. They're now steeping in gin and it'll be ready for Christmas.


On the way...
The Mill at Oundle - posh! We didn't patronise.
An early start in the morning, we've some catching up to do.
