Ahoy!
Just got back from a lovely weekend away on a canal boat...
Lazy days (when it wasn't raining!). Note the keg of German beer on the roof (courtesy of Markus) and Steve's expert piloting with a glass in one hand.
Watch out if you go over 2 miles an hour - the speed cameras will get you!
The locks were quite good fun, but difficult to steer into, especially considering our boat was the biggest you can get at 70 feet long!
We stopped at quite a few lovely country pubs along the way too. I had my first go at darts (clearly not a natural talent, but at least I didn't come last!)
Here's the crew (from left to right): Stuart (in the captain's hat), Steve, Me, Ben, Jenny, Ian, James and Markus.
My shoes! You can't really appreciate from this picture just how full of mud they were, and how dripping wet! They're currently in Stu's washing machine...
