Northampton

Pink

The sunset wasn't quite as we'd expected as the cloud didn't break up as quickly but for 10 mins or so as the sun set to our left we were treated to fiery pink skies reflecting in the water.

Pump to Sailing Club

The Pump on the dam juts out into Pitsford Reservoir with the sailing club on the far bank.

Dry Overflow

The overflow at the southernmost corner of Pitsford Reservoir is dry at the moment, the bridge is just before the dam on the southern edge of Pitsford Water. Nice graffiti but the bridge needs the work to be finished and some water under it for the best picture.

Trolling

Graffiti under the bridge on the southern end of Pitsford Water. The bridge spans the overflow from the reservoir which was sadly dry because seeing water cascading through the bridge and down the steps would have made an interesting sight.

The beers were out early

Only lunchtime and the wine and beer were already out on the boat when we met up with everyone for lunch.

Bridge Nine

JD & Coke with its crew passes under the Banbury Lane Bridge on the Northampton Arm of the Grand Union Canal. Linda was helping a work colleague to move the boat from Billing to Gayton Marina for maintenance and Megan and I met them here for lunch.
