After a great week on Nb Hawksmoor we feel recharged and recuperated, ready to get back to work and training.

When lived in north Wales I walked along the towpath of the world's highest canal aqueduct several times. Fabulous view & quite something to see how thin the iron is holding back all that water. One nutter of my acquaintance did a BASE jump off it.

Testing different propellers for electric narrowboats.
I think narrowboats are uniquely British, I don't believe they are found anywhere else. There is a trend now for converting diesel narrowboats to electric and new electric narrowboats are being built.

@cruisingthecut.bsky.social on the pros and cons of a small boat. I had a crossbed on my first boat, and cured the cold feet and head and damp duvet from condensation with a couple of pieces of cheap closed cell foam ‘kipmat’, which served many needs on my boats.
