We arrived in Peterborough on Tuesday 9th May and got a brilliant mooring less than half a mile walk from the city centre.  I was so excited to see real shops, real eateries and real wine bars.  We’d been away a week and I’d been missing civilisation especially my independence to explore rural areas as […]
