We like our boat although the length at 60' is bigger than what we've had on prior trips and it is a bit harder to manage. The canals are low level because of lack of rain and we are usually bottomed out 4 or 5 times a day. Not fun.
Overall we've had a great time with the Tuds from Saturday last till Monday. Geoff and Helen Bailley from Monday to Thursday ( Dave and Cheryl Barnard joined us for dinner on Wednesday in Hinckley ) and then The Barnards, Ray and Joan from Thursday till today, Saturday.
We have been on the canal for 8 days and the only day of rain was today. But it was only for the morning.
We are in Atherstone at the moment enjoying a lunch at The Old Red Lion and we will be looking for a laundromat this afternoon.
Here are a few pics.

Looks fab! Sorry you're bottoming out, though.
The countryside looks gorgeous. So glad you're having a good time! Miss you.
