Hi all! The expedition is bedded down only five miles from Teddington locks, with Clemmy also snug at kind and generous Molesey Boat Club. Today's 17 mile row from Old Windsor featured water like glass, the first, brief drizzle in the whole voyage and an eerie cruise through the riverine suburbia of Shepperton and Walton-on-Thames where everyone eslse seemed to have disappeared.

Dosh continues to be handed over,including a tenner deftly transferred to Clemmy by means of one of her oars. The plan now is for a penultimate row tomorrow to Eel Pie Island and a grand finale ar Chisick on Saturday afternoon. More soon!
