Title: The laughing Cavalier - Narrow Boat
Post by: Martin [Admin] on June 10, 2008, 11:13:17 am

Just going through some backup folders, found this.
Spotter her on the Grand Union Canal, Hemel Hempstead last year.
... always have your camera with you!  ;)

She is fitted with a very modern and quiet diesel with bow & stern thrusters... and was a very nice piece of kit!

Nice boat! (If you like that kind of thing....)  :angel:

Good to see the 'work ethic' is reinforced daily in the Davis household ;)  (A bit like 'daily floggings will continue until morale improves....')

NB Young Kirk is just as capable of taking a piccie as you are ;)

Extra gruel rations for the boy!

I f God had meant narrow boats to have thrusters he'd have made horses that walk sideways.
