We left sunny Sonning this morning and made our way to Tesco, I can't see me shopping in Tesco again though as this is the new mooring fee. £100, that's a bit steep.
We stocked up on a few things and then turned the boat around and headed along the Kennet and Avon.
We travelled through the Oracle without mishap but a few minutes later the heavens opened.
We had thunder, lightening torrential rain and hailstones.
We started to open the next lock, but had to stop, we couldn't see what we were doing.
We managed to reach Burghfield and we have moored up for the night and lit the fire.
We both had a shower to warm up and had a quick drink in the Cunning Man and then returned to the boat.
I cooked lamb chops, new potatoes, broccoli, cabbage and carrots.
Then it was feet up and kindled out.

Despite the weather sounds lovely.
The evenings are turning chilly aren't they. Those mooring fees are expensive!
It's £9.50 at the official mooring but no one can use it as there are liveaboards moored there.
Even that is too expensive on top of a shopping bill.
