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.

If you've had your bike nicked in Leamington Spa, it's probably in the cut.

Kings Bromley Marina.

The Mid-February Bulletin from the I.W.A.  carries a report  on a clean up day carried out earlier this month by the Warwickshire branch of the organisation. The aim was to clear rubbish from the Leamington Spa section of the Grand Union Canal.

Twenty eight volunteers with grappling hooks dragged out almost four tons of scrap metal, including over 30 bicycles, 20 shopping trolleys, road signs and other general junk, they even removed  a Christmas tree complete with baubles and stand, all deposited there by persons unknown.

Persons unknown is about the only description I can use without being censored.
