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.

Kew Gardens

We arrived in Little Venice on Friday 2nd July. Row upon row of boats greeted us and I honestly thought that we wouldn't find a mooring. Well luck was with us and one space appeared. talk about fitting into a tight space. We shoe horned our self in and Dennis and Margaret breasted up alongside. We will now stay for the 14 days permitted and leave the boats while we go to Antwerp for the tall ship race. Before we leave on Sunday 11th we are going to make the most of being in central London and do the touristy things. First stop was Kew Gardens.
