Today was a lovely day - I wasn't a billy no mates!!
Boat was sprung clean and laid out in visitor mode.
Finally we can both sit somewhere comfortable - result.
Dearly beloved hasn't seen the boat since the changes and he said it was a huge improvement.
We had a cooked breakfast for lunch as that was all I had on board that would please his taste buds.
And of course cake and tea (he brought the cake).
Anyone ever read the book 'The tree that sat down'? If this one isn't sitting down then it must at least be kneeling.
See ship's cat is very brave.
Not scared at all by two crocs...
While waiting for dearly beloved I was sitting on a tree stump watching the world go by. (Mostly on very fast virgin trains it must be said.) A hire boat went slowly past and the hirers invited me on board which was very sweet of them but they were going in the wrong direction. It was a lovely thought all the same.
They were American seems like they are all invading us these days!
Coming here stealing all our narrowboats ...
Only joking.

Lovely boat Kath. Nice to see the inside. I will read through all your posts when time allows.
How does the cat fare on the water? No wandering away when you moor up? Glad you and your beloved had a fine weekend together. :)
Yep--England's beautiful canals and gorgeous narrowboats are a draw indeed for Americans--in this big country we've nothing close to England's incredible canal system--just a few unjoined canals back East near the great lakes.
Ciao!
Hi Jaqueline
If you read them all then you must be a glutton for punishment!
The cat is very timid, however last summer she did disappear twice on the Fossdyke and on one occasion on the Oxford Canal I discovered just how far she had wandered when a farmer told me where she had been seen the evening before.

coming here stealing our men ... :)
LOL! What can I say? Not only does fair England have the most incredible canal system and beutiful boats--it also has the most amazing men! Who knew? Not me! Dear Sir gives British men a very fine reputation as the best of the best! :)
