Dennis and Margaret needed to get diesel and also wanted a pump out. On the way met the diesel boat. They had already sorted out another boat with diesel and Dennis pulled alongside waiting his turn. Once the other boat had paid his money he just pushed away which left the diesel boat and Dennis just sitting in the middle of the canal. With hose connected to both boats what should come round the corner but a trip boat going back to Little Venice. With a lot of fancy handling the diesel boat managed to make a small space so the trip boat could pass. As Dennis was pumping out at the time the passengers got more then they bargained for. What a pong.
About Us
- Ian and Irene Jameison
- 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.
