Even had some time this afternoon to make the girls some rings. To the neighbouring boats benefit (and Whispers), I haven't yet found the time to learn 'Let it Go' yet...

Met another boatie family last night with kids same age as Bobby. I've been talked into staying another night here in Napton so they can enjoy getting to know each other a little longer. They played Perfection. Anyone remember that anxiety inducing game from our childhoods?

Advise please... Made a new ring this morning. Jackie said it's too feminine for me. Is she a) right, or b) planning cunningly to have the ring for herself? Personally I like it.

Rocking it today! 'His and Her' copper bracelets made from some old gas pipe we had on the boat. Followed by a banging salad made with fresh falafels and bulgar for our tea!

Now I know I not Farmer Giles, but even I know thems are not horses!

Really looking forward to seeing the next two trishaws out and about in Kidlington and Blackbird Leys. Chip in, or better still fundraise towards them if you can. Rich x justgiving.com/campaign/CWAOx…

A day of mixed emotions. Said goodbye to my dad yesterday morning for the final time. And today we mark his grandsons 10th birthday. Sleep well ol' boy. Bobby and I will both make sure the MacKenzie good looks live on 😉x

Motoring mafia are staging some sort of mass demonstration here in Banbury. Not sure what there demands are or the point of this protest. Looks like they've been sat here for ages. #ShouldHaveCycled 🚘 = 👎 🚶🚴‍♂️ = 👍

Today's make. Just made this from a piece of old gas pipe from the boat. Bit more macho than the last one. I'm keeping it!

The birthday boy! Unicycling day one... Happy Birthday, you brave, kind and enthusiastic young man!

More making this morning. I'm calling this piece 'Number 1' as although just like it's creator - it's not perfect, I am happy to be starting my portfolio with it...

Another lovely stop over in Banbury. The now 10-year-old Bobby also showed his skippering worth, by taking the boat through Banbury Lock for me. He's one heck of a helmsman already! Moored for now in King's Sutton, hoping to get some more creative time tomorrow.

Quick evening wire wrap ring in copper. As always, all my pieces come with a story. This one was made just above King Sutton Lock on the Oxford Canal this evening. Whist enjoying a lovely glass of Beckford's Rum and Carmel whilst listening to Andrea Bocelli 🥃🎶 Rich x

Been playing with some photography on my walk this morn. Would like be some feedback and suggestions 😊

Me moonlighting 😆

Top marks Cappagh. Double yellows, zig-zag bit by a crossing and a junction 👏 Parked today at 9:45am by Tesco in Kidlington. @TVP_Kidlington Cherwell District Council anyone close with a ticket pad?

Wow I've been quite huh? Sorry all, bit I've been working my socks off on my new business. Go have a look what I've been at 🙏🤟 Rich

Just witnessed a hatchback Merc squeeze through here by mounting the curb (you can still see tyre marks. May need another bollard. Ian Hudspeth OBE 🇺🇦 Cyclox
