Hello, we are just about to do 'take two'
to get to our marina
We have our food
We have some clothing
And... we have the rain.
Which is ESSENTIAL we found out... for boating!
Lots and lots of people have asked us (after watching the last video)
Well... that's a bit of an exaggeration
a few people...
Just one lady! In the chandlery
This is the plan. We are going to get the boat
And it's not going to catch on fire
And we are going to cruise... at the speed of light
(bird sounds)
And then we are going to moor it up.
Very efficiently and effectively and not hit any other narrowboats
I'll video that!!
And that's pretty much the plan
Ok... sneaky little update, while Kath's driving
We are hoping to make it through... um...
is it Stoke Bruene tunnel?
"No'
'No, um'
It's um... the tunnel that leads to Stoke Bruerne
And hopefully we are going to make it through tonight
and that would give us
Some extra time. To sleep in in the morning
'Two boats fit there?'
'Yep'
You think two boats fit there?
Have you seen it?
Yeah, two boats fit there like they do under the bridge.
And how was that?
And how many times did I bump?
Pardon? I couldn't here you answer
'No times'
We had three solid days to complete the journey
Which included over 20 locks and two swing bridges
Never done a swing bridge before
There's more footage about locks that we couldn't include in this episode.
So we plan on making a episode solely devoted to locks and swing bridges.
We had superb weather
The sunset were lovely.
There was lost of nice pubs.
We even saw the first ducks of the season
We had a lovely time, but unfortunately we did have to go back to work
In the end, returning to work gave us a rest for our day job on the narrowboat
