This was yesterdays sunrise. You could say 'the calm before the storm'. Last night was very lively with the boat being buffeted by the winds and rain. The Trent is up again but not yet in the red so boats are still managing to do the sharp turn into the Erewash without to much difficulty. Those that sail past do so at a good pace not only being pushed by the wind but also by the fast flowing currant. Put it this way, I don't think I fancy venturing out at the moment. Ian's sister Shelia and brother in law Chris have come up to see us. As they have travelled up from Burnham on Crouch in their camper van, the dog doesn't have to be ousted from her sleeping quarters to put the camp beds up. I've sent them all off with Ian to get our diesel in a can from the boat yard at Kegworth. Last time his prices was 85p Ltr so I'm hoping they haven't gone up by to much. Christine is also coming to see us this afternoon. Last time we saw her young Josh was the grumpiest little boy imaginable so I'm hoping he will be in a better frame of mind today. Only time will tell!
