No Direction

No Direction is our 70ft Narrowboat which is now home to my wife Jayne and myself, it was launched on 4th February 2008.

We spend the Winters in a Marina and cruise in the warmer weather.

It's That Time Of The Year.

Thursday 22nd March 2012.

Spring has sprung, the sun is shining and the Swans are mating, ( I have just uploaded a short video to our youtube list on the left of this page), it appears that when Swans get together the preliminaries take a lot longer than the main event.

Tomorrow I'm off to Braunston, (by car) it's the BCBM weekend, The Friends of Raymond take the opportunity to display the boat which will be open for the public to view and sit in the back cabin, the first thing they notice, usually when they bang their head is how little room there is. I will be there on Sunday as well to help put everything away

The way they used to live.


As the Friends are a registered charity we will also have the collection boxes on the boat as well as a stall in the main Marquee.

Last Tuesday evening we went to the Gatehouse Wetherspoons pub in Lichfield, it was packed, we eventualy found a table for four but the queue to order food was huge so we ended up at the Old Perculiar at Handsacre, we had a very good night.

We won't see you this time, Ray, as I'm working this weekend. Have a good one. And the steam trip sounds great too!
