About Us

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.

Kingston upon Thames


Our first mooring after arriving at Teddington Lock. 24 hours free then £5 a night after that. Still think its criminal after spending all that money for our Thames license! Still Kingston is a fabulous for shopping place. We found Lidl's that had an offer for bottles of real ale, so Dennis and Ian went and fetched their trolleys and bought out nearly all they had. ( Not quite but certainly seemed like it.) We decided to pay for a second night because the next port of call is Hampton Court and we were advised to leave about 9ish in the morning to hopefully find somewhere to stop.
