Summers Coming

The Orchid garden in Singapore








Bondi beach on a hot Sunday





Victoria Peak Hongkong


It's nearly that time again. After 8 wonderful weeks in Australia this winter, which shortened our winter break considerably we are getting ready for our summer cruise with NB Bendigedig.
Our thanks to Eric, Elsie & Ben for looking after 'Shush' whilst we were away, we wouldn't have been happy going without them here to keep an eye on her. Thanks for the Daffs Elsie.

This year we are going to visit Leeds via the Rochdale and Huddersfield Broad Canals, from there to Liverpool via Wigan and then back to Manchester, onto the Ashton and Macclesfield Canals.


That's a lot of miles and locks but we are looking forward to it, and with no dead line to meet we can take our time and enjoy it, which is what narrowboating is all about, so if Tuesday is as good as the weatherman says it will be, we will be on our way
