Well is has been a
while, I really don't know where the times goes! We finally left Braunston on Thursday. Cupboard looking good, and we now have 2
windows at the bow of the boat with a table which either clips up behind the
windows or drops down into the cratch.
So all very posh! Paul has
painted it but will do some decoration when he has the time. Leaving Braunston meant 6 locks and a
tunnel. We were very lucky with the
weather and the 6 locks took one hour twenty minutes. Good going.
We were paired with another boat, that helps, also it was fairly busy so
some locks were ready for us to go straight in and others we were able to leave
open ready for the next boat. Which all
makes life that bit easier.
So now we are
moored near a village called Weedon.
Just ahead of us is the Pub where we stayed when we came up and found
Falcon. Haven't been there tho as we
have a problem with electrics/fridge, not
sure which, have an electrician visiting tomorrow. So have had to eat up lots of food from the
fridge!
Not been any where
today, it gets busy on the canal at the weekends! We’ve been busy though. Helped Paul get everything out of the bow
locker which is where the gas bottles go.
He then managed to squeeze himself in there to clean it out and treat
the rust. Hoping for dry weather
tomorrow, so he can paint inside.
It means that while he is working
we have no gas, so not even a cuppa!
Well wrote that yesterday, so we are still at Weedon and hopefully the electrics are now working properly. May stay here a few days yet.
So that is the
latest from us. You all take care.
