Walked up to Osney lock and discovered that they had closed some of the weir gates and were no longer displaying the red boards. So we went back to the boat and set off.
Went up the river as far as Godstow Abbey where we moored to go to the Trout for lunch. The only beer was Landlord served without a sparkler, but the food and service were excellent so I had two courses.
After lunch we went on upstream and turned right into Dukes cut, and at the end of that we turned right onto the Oxford canal to get back to Oxford.
We moored for the night opposite the hire base. Went to the Rose and Crown to eat, then went to meet Peter in the Harcourt. After showing Peter round the boat he drove us to the Masons Arms in Headington Quarry. He also brought us back again.
