The geese have come to The Puzzler to see if there is any chance of food. This is unusual as they are well fed by visitors to the Round "O" park, beside the mooring.
The seagulls are hungry too, but will not come any closer to the window of the boat.
There are contractors working at the Portora Boathouse. As they have been clearing wood, we persuaded them to let us help! This jetty normally only caters for rowing boats, but was perfectly adequate for The Puzzler.
A friend was moving his boat near to the Erne shopping centre, so Sally went to help.
The only access to this mooring is by canoe!
Big Red is pushing works machinery on a barge upstream past the Round "O".
On approaching Enniskillen Bridge he needed full power to make any progress at all against the current. We heard later that he came to a standstill between the old and the new bridges.
He must have got through eventually, as we saw him later on, near to the Erne shopping centre, opposite the Regal Pass mooring. It will be interesting to see what work is being done here.
Another barge leaves the Round "O" to go the quarter mile trip to Riverview. As long as he is away for four hours then the wardens will be happy!
