Jen's first visit

Arrived at DSM in time for lunch, Jen & I did some food shopping and brought Fish & Chips back to Averina for lunch.  Heading out for our first stop at Dunhampstead for the night.  Troll came out from under the bridge at Hanbury junction pointing out we hadn't operated the side panels at the three locks - who knew??  The little canal art shop was open and we purchased some coasters with canal roses painted on them.  Chap in there offered Jen the chance to win a badge if she could tie a knot - mega embarrassment for Jen as this was a "children's" competition, she will appreciate looking younger than her age when she's 40 but not now!  

Lasagne for supper, slightly charred as the oven is really hot!  Learnt once the oven is on you don't need the heating on as well!
