We’ve woken up to another drizzly day but boat jobs wait for no-one and it’s off to the Elsan and to fill up with water to do some washing. Tomorrow I’m off to visit mum and go on holiday to the Isle of Man so Chris is boat alone, so the blog will be having a week off as I want to enjoy the time with mum ((You mean you don’t enjoy your time with Chris?)) Of course I do… 😉 This holiday was booked before we decided to embark on this cruising adventure and one of the reasons we’ve had to stay in the area as I mentioned earlier. It’s much cheaper to book train tickets in advance so needed to know I could be near the station.
I spent some time getting this blog scheduled and the vlog updated so they are all set to run whilst I’m away. Once the blog returns I should hopefully have more cruising blogs and vlogs and places to share as we cruise up the Erewash to have the boat taken out and blacked and then we vaguely plan to go towards Willington. I’m not saying 100% as who knows! Then it will be a few weeks hanging about and cruising this stretch as we are booked into Mercia Marina whilst Chris goes on holiday – again, this was all booked before we decided to leave. Right, i hope you’ve enjoyed the adventure so far. ((They will certainly enjoy the break from you I’m sure)) I will be back at some point. If there is anything you want to know about boating life then leave me any questions and I will try and include them in the next blog or vlog. In the meantime you can follow me on Insta or Facebook where I will still be sharing pics of my holiday and if you want to watch the vlogs remember you can sign up to YouTube and subscribe to my channel for free. Also, if you feel like buying one of my books or sharing a review that would be wonderful. For now, it’s goodbye from Brackets ((and goodbye from Peachy)) Until, next time… x

After living in various parts of the UK, including Wakefield, York, Derby, and the Yorkshire Dales, I now live on a Narrowboat cruising the canal network. I enjoy reading, writing, travelling, walking, kayaking, watching all forms of motorbike racing and socialising (networking).
At the beginning of my writing journey, I started my blog which tracks the ups and downs of writing. ((I need to mention that my blog posts are usually visited by ‘Brackets’!))
To the books…
