As the barge set off at 6.30pm up the canal towards Marsworth, DJ Henry kept the group entertained with soul, reggae and pop from the 60's to present.

Thirty fours Social Friends members had a brilliant evening on the Chiltern Countess barge with Grebe Canal Cruises. It was a perfect warm evening for the trip from Cheddington up to Marsworth. As the barge set off at 6.30pm up the canal towards Marsworth, DJ Henry kept the group entertained with soul, reggae and pop from the 60's to present. He also got the residents of moored boats and the evening walkers on the tow path involved with lots of people including children dancing along with the group. When the boat reached the 4th lock, the fish and chips arrived from a nearby shop and everyone tucked in. With dinner over and the barge through its final lock, the group were allowed to disembark to stretch their legs while the barge was turned around at the widest point in the canal. Some members returned to the boat to carry on dancing while others took an evening stroll back down to the Bluebells Tearooms at Wilstone reservoirs before boarding the barge again. As dusk fell the revelling continued all the way back to Cheddington. It was a wonderful evening made all the more special by the friendliness of the crew and DJ Henry getting everyone on the canal that evening involved.
