Wednesday

This morning I rewrote my feature article 'Chocolate on the Shroppie', rewritten as 'Bournville 5', and submitted it with three archive photographs to Canals Online.


I rang the editor, Linda, to enquire as to whether she wanted a report on the whole Thames Traditional Boat Festival on Saturday, or should I just focus on the narrow boats taking part. She asked for a mixture.
