Moored in Newark


This will be Jomima’s winter home. It is, of course, not winter yet but the time has come for us to attend to other things. We will still be taking her out on occasions, if the sun shines, for a trip up the river. However, the river Trent is usually at its best in the spring when the new ducklings hatch and the fishermen are constrained by the closed season. It is strange, most walkers, rowers, sailors and other users of the river always say hello and wave as we go past. Unfortunately, much as we have tried to be friendly and avoid disturbing their lines, the fishermen only respond with a glower.

That is all for now. If we make any interesting river journeys then I will provide an update. Now where shall we go next year?
