Visiting Mother.

Have been away from the boat since Wednesday evening visiting family.Came back Sunday lunch time. Waited in all afternoon for our nephew Graeme to come pay us a visit,however he didn't arrive until this morning(apparently he'd been watching the cricket). We left Stanley Ferry with Graeme and his wife Lesley on board. The plan was to spend a night at Altofts lock, but there were no visitor moorings,so we dropped our passengers and continued to Castleford where we moored for the night. While on our way to Castleford Richard and Gill phoned to say they would meet us there. They stayed an hour or two then went home to meet the kids from school.
Tomorrow we will Visit mother in Allerton Bywater, which is a short walk from the Castleford Mooring. Another night moored in Castleford
