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.

Mink at Whitchurch lock




As we approached the lock landing I suddenly saw two shapes in the water. On closer inspection I realised they were mink. The lock keeper told us there is a family of four terrorising the wild life and so far they have avoided capture.


This dragon boat was on race practice while we were waiting for the lock to fill. They wer'nt very good. Couldn't keep the paddles in time so ended up weaving all over the place.
