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.

Chaos reigns in the Jameison boat

Even the dog has left home! Jade couldn't cope with the upheaval especially when her bed disappeared! You see we are completly changing our galley and all because we bought a new cooker from Midland Chandlers freaky Friday event. A Caprice free standing cooker will replace our seperate oven and hob. It means the balk head has to come out and be moved over by about 9" and because we couldnt match the excisting work surface, 2 new ones had to be bought.With Ikea pratically on our doorstep it was ideal for finding just what we wanted at a reasonable price. So as you can see from these photos life is going to be a little difficult for the next few days and poor Jade  had one of her nervous breakdowns going into hyper dribbling panting mode as soon as we started to move things around. I phoned Christine and thankfully Jade can stay with her until Monday. More photos as and when things start progressing.


The old cooker came out last night and is standing next to the chair
