Spring

What a lovely day it was today, almost like spring!! Cleared all the rubbish off of the roof and gave the boat a wash - looks like new again even though it is almost 19 years old. You never know, if tomorrow is the same I might even get round to cleaning the brass and taking a little cruise, just up to the winding hole and back.
Surprisingly there are a lot of boats about today, whilst I was cleaning the boat and working in the garden there must have been about a dozen boats go by, one of them was brand new, I saw it in the workshops at Harveys the other day and now it is cruising. It was called 'No Direction', hardly an appropriate name for a boat as far as I am concerned, it must be going somewhere!! As to where the rest of them were going who knows. Apparently it is half term next week for a lot of schools in the area so I will no doubt see lots of boats in the next week. Half of the enjoyment of canals is sitting and watching the boats go by.
