The Angel, Henley.

Had breakfast and headed off, stopped in Wargrave for provisions. Vastly overcharged for three pints of mild in the Bull, but reasonable ablutions. Steered by our Nelmesman for a couple of miles, then Chris stepped in.
Just arrived in Henley to find we are in the middle of swan-upping; loads of skiffs and launches, excellent atmosphere. Sitting with a great gentleman who used to be involved with the upping as a waterman, and his wife. The Wherry blocked in by various boats; may have to have a few more beers.
