Shiplake

Happy Mother's day, Mum.

Enjoying a quiet weekend in Shiplake and Sonning, where Sumo can run around offlead like an idiot. There are some fallen trees on the thames path, so we're going to help our friend Chas chainsaw and log them up later. The lock keeper at Hurley kindly gave us a load of his, too. Some nice horse chestnut, which will season and burn well. I tried bowsawing some limbs we've been carrying around for a while. It was hard work, and it took forever. So we gladly jump at any opportunity for some nicely cut logs, that just need splitting.
