A night of heavy rain. We were up early to watch England beat New Zealand in the Rugby World Cup and so reach the final next week.

After the match, an unbelievable performance by England, I walked up to a local Screwfix and the Festival Retail Park and bought items for more jobs and improvements to the boat, Evolution we call it.

A new silicone gun to finish grouting the mosaic tiles behind the stove, a new double socket with USB ports for under the TV, a new clothes rail for the dinette area and a magnetic cup holder for the back end for Brenda.

Brenda in the meantime, very unusually for her, read and watched a bit of afternoon TV.

In the evening we went out for a drink with Nickie and Annie, two women we had met who live singly on boats. We went to the unusually named pub, The Holy Inadequate. When Nickie said where we were going, I thought it was an invite to attend church. It was a nice, no frills pub though and gets its name from being unwanted by the pub chains and taken on by a group of businessmen.
