About Us

My photo
In 1977 we hired our first narrowboat from Anglo Welsh at Market Harborough.From that moment our destiny was set. In 2006 we finally purchased our own brand new 57' narrowboat which we named 'Free Spirit'. Our aim is to travel the length and breadth of all the navigable rivers and canals of the UK. This will be our story as it unfolds.

The family visit

Really cold yesterday so we had to leave the fire lit to keep the boat warm. I expect most Grandparents are the same when the stove is hot, worry worry worry in case Josh went any where near it. He's like a mini tornado rushing from one end of the boat to the other leaving destruction in its place. I wouldn't have him any other way. Bless. An added bonus was the Candy boat shop moored next to us. Josh had a great time deciding what sweeties to buy. If he had his own way he would have had the lot! Christine and Kev took us out for a meal last night to the Waterfront at Barton Turns. Lovely pub and the food was excellent apart from the new modern so called "Michelin" status where portions are tiny and prices exorbitant. Glad we wernt paying!!!!
