In between the winds blowing the boat here, there and everywhere we were knuckling down to do boat jobs and prepping ready to leave marina life tomorrow and Chris went to sort out his new tyres for his pushbike as he had a puncture at our last mooring and as he struggles with his dodgy foot it’s his best mode of transport. The marina has bike tools anyone can use so really useful.
Anyway, ((I wish you would get to the point)) last night we were chatting with another boater who is the next hatch. He wants to eventually go out cruising but he’s currently residential here at the marina and working, so in the same situation as we were in at Newark. Chris got chatting to him whilst he was sorting out his bike and the guy said to Chris that he was sure he recognised me. Turns out it’s from YouTube! ((OH dear lord Peachy will be insufferable now she’s been ‘recognised!)) He commented on my very first vlog and we have chatted on other vlogs over time. What a nice guy and it was lovely to hear how much he liked the channel ((You mean there is someone who likes watching someone who forgets everything and what they do remember is probably wrong!))
It’s very weird to be recognised off the tele! I remember when I met Fran and Rich who have a YouTube channel and was a bit star stuck because you’re so used to seeing them on TV! Proper chuffed anyway. It’s a shame we are leaving tomorrow as not sure I will get chance to say hello again before we go.
Other than that today has been a bit more freelance work and general social stuff to advertise my books. I’m hoping to carry on with my mystery/thriller novel next week, it’s been so long since I’ve been able to get really stuck into a story I’m getting itchy fingers! ((You should see a doctor about that!))
Until tomorrow and we are back on the cut! Xx

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’!))
