Another trip

We're out for a couple of weeks, and luckily for us we seem to have a good weather window.  Out this morning past the Boat Inn, unfortunately closed and looking for a new tenant.  There must be at least three or four who have tried to run this pub and then decided to move on in the ten, (or is it eleven), years that we have been visiting the area.

Just down the Stockton flight, we stopped for luch at the Two Boats, where the landlord mentioned that they had now been open for twelve weeks.  I remember the previous landlord talking about how hard it was to cover the cost of the rent from the takings, so I can only wish the new guys luck.
