Getting close to a perfect day

In life you don’t need a lot to make you complete. Love, health and a bit of freedom  usually derived from financial independence all go into the mix to give a happy life of opportunity and exploration and adventure. 

We woke to a very misty canal in complete contrast to the evening before. That gave us permission to relax and enjoy or 38th year married. We’ve been in a relationship for over 42 years …. It’s to be recommended. At lunchtime we took a lovely late winter walk to Shugborough for lunch and a walk in the grounds. 








We have to be back home tomorrow for other family obligations so we had a choice of staying where we were and winding in the wide tomorrow or motoring the well hidden winding  hole at Milton … as it was so nice we fired the donk up and headed off to Tixell lock.



Another excellent wind from Rachel and we decided to stop and moor above the lock as it was dropping cold and the geese on the wide are an unwelcome alarm clock.



We finished the day off with  lovely meal of fillet steak for me and some fizzy stuff. Some music to entertain us into the evening now. 

Don’t die with regrets or unfulfilled ambitions. Life is so fleeting and so precious try whenever you can to live in the moment. Yesterday is spent and tomorrow comes with no guarantee. Sermon over
