D and I went a walk along the Grand Union Canal from Catherine de Barnes last week.
Village Hall
The Boat Inn looked busy.
We walked for a change towards Elmdon Heath for a while and then returned and walked in the other direction towards Copt Heath.
The canal was being dredged and we saw at least two dredgers. A sign with information explained why it was necessary. Apparently the canal is very very badly silted up.
We saw several young Moorhen and also juvenile mallards.
The remaining photos were taken by D with the Canon SX50HS bridge camera.
Baking
D made a Blackberry and Apple Loaf (recipe BBC Good Food website) with the blackberries picked at Stoneleigh.
D and E made another of the GBBO's cake boxes recipes - this time chocolate and hazelnut babka. I thought they did really well as E has never made bread and D has only made the occasional loaf or pizza base.
I hope everyone is staying safe and well.
We are in Herefordshire at the moment. I would have liked to have stayed a few more days as the weather looks good but sadly, we have to return home not just for a shopping delivery but for a gas boiler service and it looks like a BT engineer visit as there are problems with the internet at home apparently :(
