We stayed at Bugbrooke for the best part of a week, we had our BSC booked in at Blisworth and as we both like Bugbrooke we decided to sit it out there and continue with the pen making.
I do enjoy the walks around the area, my favourite one takes you over the railway bridge and up through fields where you are rewarded with some fantastic views, I then follow the stream back to the canal and home again.
We had visitors whilst there, Maffi and Molly moored up opposite us at The Wharf and popped over for coffee the following morning - Dudley had a Goldilocks and the three bears moment - someone's been sleeping in my bed!
We were lucky enough to get some lovely weather too with the weekend being extremely hot.
On Sunday we set off to be in Blisworth for our appointment with the BSS Examiner, just a couple of small things to sort, one of which we needed to find someone on route to do as we had to get going to be in Linslade for our Easter Market.

I went to secondary in Bugbrooke in 1971-73. Lived in rothersthorpe, nr N'ton Arm and often walked on the towpaths in summer. Some were falling in to the canal- only just passable. I loved the gentle countryside but since moving to Yorkshire have got used to bigger hills and craggyness and now prefer it.
