From St Neots to Brampton Mill, River Great Ouse
We have continued our journey back downstream after a quick shopping halt at Waitrose in St Neots. Amazingly their system gave us a 50p refund of a car park ticket!!!
We passed back through the enormous lock north of St Neots and headed downstream hoping the rain would hold off, and fortunately it did.
After publishing yesterdays blog we saw this dragon boat go charging up and down the river.
We have moored for the evening at the GOBA moorings at Brampton Mill, a wonderful old watermill and associated buildings that have been converted into a pub and restaurant.
We forgot to say that we saw the Red Arrows fly over the river yesterday, obviously on their way to somewhere and not performing or practicing.
We are moored on the edge of Port Holme Meadow, believed to be one of the biggest common meadows in Britain, with it's common land status going back to King John.
