After the slight thaw from yesterday, last night's minus temperature's has caused me no end of problems underfoot. I nearly went over twice and with the canal just a few feet away, I really didn't fancy falling onto the ice. It might be thick but even I don't think it would support my weight!! To top it all the fog was really quite dense and for the first time in ages I kept Jade close by my side. Her walk was cut short and she really wasn't happy when we turned back, but I felt it wasn't safe for me to continue. Maybe tomorrow will be better. The forecast for the next few days show a thaw during the day and sub zero temperatures overnight so I can see us still being here by next weekend. One of the other boaters told me that the drinking water tap was frozen so I think we will have to be even more frugal with our water supplies. At least the showers are working and there is still running water at the elsan disposal. ( Definitely not drinking water though!!!!) Both Ian and I are getting down to our last few clean undies so I might have to resort to what another fellow boater does, ( Heather on nb Bracken ). She washes them at the same time as having her shower!! I will leave you with a very foggy picture and another one of those what can you see in the picture.
