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.

Penkridge.

Friday 31st August 2012.
Stafford Boat Club to Penkridge.
4.5 Miles and 4 Locks.

First lock today was Deptmore Lock, a very deep one, worked through in warm sunshine, we passed the Fudge Boat shortly afterwards, Heather and Tony were busy cooking up another load of Fudge probably for the Black Country Festival in two weeks time.

Above Park Gate Lock we moored up so I could get a couple of things from Midland Chandlers, then it was on to Penkridge where we are moored now.

Yesterday we passed a Glass Fibre Cruiser, it was the same model as Jayne and I bought in 1978, the only difference was that ours was clean and licenced.

Dirty and un-licenced.
 
On yesterdays blog I mentioned the broken down boat Hercules moored opposite, at about 9.30 last night a van pulled up and there was five minutes of feverish hammering from inside the boat, then it went quite and the van left, wonder if they fixed it.
