A Spare Weekend

In the run up to our busy period we have rather unusually this weekend got a spare weekend with nothing planned and nothing to do. So we fully plan to make the most of the time relaxing and chilling out aboard.

Tonight we are having a night in with a few beers, a film and later on a nice home cooked turkey madras which I rustled up in the week so just needs warming through and serving with some wholegrain basmati rice and a vegetable bahji.

As the weather looks set to be quite hit and miss with sunshine and heavy showers in the forecast we are not heading far tomorrow and will just head into Lincoln and have a mooch around, have a few drinks on board, have a few drinks in town and at some point decide on what we want to eat. We still don't know if we will eat on board or eat out tomorrow. We will see where our fancy takes us.

And as Sunday looks set to be another day of sunshine and showers we will have a steady morning in town before heading back to the marina and our berth. We have got all of the ingredients together to make a slow cooked steak and ale casserole with dumplings for Sunday evening which seemed quite apt with the downturn in the weather and the drawing in of the evenings. And with the forecast temperatures for the weekend we may even be turning the heating on properly for the first time this autumn.
