We hadn't planned on stopping by the Bridge Inn again but on the way to Napton we spied a sign saying Tuesday Steak Night, Rump or Sirloin for £7.99 
This was too good a opportunity to miss so we managed to find a mooring just as another boat pulled away. Ian looked at the bank and said it would be suitable for painting the gunwales on that side so we decided to stay for the 48 hours permitted. The winding hole was only a little way up from us and I spent a happy few hours watching boats attempting to wind round. This Alvchurch boat tried winding the wrong way ie reversing into it rather then putting his bow in first. The consequences was that he got well and truly stuck on the mud. Luckily another boat appeared from the bridge and after attaching a line, pulled them out.

Mine came and was perfectly cooked but Ian's was more well done then he liked. He reluctantly sent it back and they were ever so good as to cook him a perfect steak within 5 minutes. Even though we had this slight problem I would still recommend this pub.
