70 now and our five wonderful years aboard our narrowboat Skyy seem along time ago. Jacquie, allowed me to build my replica three wheeler kit car, which was a great success. Now it's time to start on a bigger project and that is to make a good Triumph Stag even better, here goes.

BYE BYE FOR NOW

THURSDAY 9TH TO FRIDAY 10TH JUNE 2011

We left Rugby quite late in the day, I had been trying to arrange travel insurance and awaiting a return call, but we decided to make a start and soon had the three Hillmorton locks behind us. We carried on for another hour before stopping for the night close to Willoughby Wharf. On Friday morning we continued on our way back to our old mooring at Wigrams Turn Marina, The church spire at Braunston showed us that we weren’t far from the turn and soon we were on the last leg of this journey. Fifteen months since we had been this way and the old working boat was still sunk and it looked like another one was about to go under, very sad.




As we motored down through the marina to our new mooring, several old chums waved us a welcome and we were soon settled in and our spring cruising was at an end. We shall start again and continue blogging later in the summer, in the meantime have a good one.
