We have not been up to Hannah the Narrowboat since New Years Day, more down to other things going on than a lack of wanting to do so. Things needed checking out such as the level of water in the bilges, water pipes and the like so the visit was well overdue.
Everything was fine so there was no need for us to have been worried and I am sure that if anything had been untoward I would have got a text from Ronny or the marina itself. Although it was cold it was still great to be back aboard.
On the Monday we decided to get out and about for a walk along the Northampton Arm of the Grand Union Canal - we were not taking Hannah out as the wind was pretty blustery which is not fun on a narrow boat!
