Friday 14 September
Left Napton-on-the-hill, but saw the windmill. Bad day weather very windy. Locks once again have different paddles and on the first lock I jammed the windlass on and when I released the safety catch the windlass swung round and hit my right boob.
Washing got blown off the boat due to a large gust of wind. John tried to catch it but it all went under. Spent a few minutes with the hook pole but all we found was one t shirt. I just hope that my black bra does not get caught round their propellor. Very upset as my favourite PJ's (the ones that Jean Parkes and I brought in an expensive shop in Malvern) are at the bottom of the canel or round another propellor. Did not reach Banbury so moored up by a railway line and the M 40. Very poor television reception; every time a train went past we lost the picture. Went to bed in disgust with a book.
