The Perch, Binsey



Discovered one of our blades had broken slightly across the spoon, rang Tom Balm who helpfully suggested we should tape it up. So far we have helpfully ignored him and left it as it is. Caught up with some very very mad people on a home made raft with built-in barbeque; exchanged pleasantries. They are hoping for ten miles a day and are unusually making us look entirely normal.
Mustering another vast wake, overtook several narrowboats, fending off two dog comments and several `it's alright for the cox` type remarks. Pulled in to the Perch near Oxford for lunch. It is quite busy so they have closed the kitchen to catch up; eating various peanuts and crispy pig items while we wait.
