Sailing on the seven seas

Well, what a lovely week of weather.

Sadly, we've spent it inside working, but last night we were let loose and went out!

But not just anywhere - we went out to a FLOATING GIN PALACE!!

(Alright, our friends had hired a canal boat and were adventuring along the waterways near to where we live, but they had said booze on board, therefore the description stands.)

And it was lovely - not only to see friends in actual person - but also to be out in the glorious weather taking things very easy at a top speed of less-than-walking-pace.

And because we drove around an hour to meet them, because the weather was beautiful and because we were on the water, it felt almost like a mini holiday.

And now it's the weekend and the sun is still blazing so the paddling pool will be out.

Yes, we have bits of work to do, and yes, there's always a huge list of house jobs, but the floating gin palace vibe has set me up for the weekend and I intend to try and channel that spirit (pun intended) for the next couple of days.
