Notes: I was assisted down the whole flight at Napton by the following Black Prince hire boats, mainly by a Thai / Canadian lady by the name of Waan. All trhe rest of the Canadians were a great bunch and at the end of the day gifted me their excess food due to them flying home the next day. I treated Waan to a drink at the pub. Speaking of which, I dined on their delicious faggots and it was absolutely fabulous. The best I've ever had.
