Blackbird singing...: March 2014
http://carrieblackbirdsinging.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 4 March 2014. I bumped into the wonderfully friendly Josie and Sarah again, who run Arthur Daily Trips. On the Grand Union. What I didn't know is that they've recently moved into one of the lock cottages at Cowley Lock and, after helping me open a very reluctant lock gate, Josie gave me a tour of their new home. It's lovely and in such a great spot. I was especially envious of the garden! Anyway, I wish them lots of success because they really are delightful. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Blackbird singing...: June 2014
http://carrieblackbirdsinging.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Friday, 20 June 2014. So, after much delay, Blackbird has had his bottom blacked. It was done in the charming little dry-dock at Bates Boatyard, above the Marsworth flight near Tring and a very reasonable price it was too. The dry-dock featured in the old film 'The Bargee'.

Blackbird singing...: January 2014
http://carrieblackbirdsinging.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 28 January 2014. For anyone interested in my extra-curricular activities, here's my new 'blog'. Thursday, 23 January 2014. Let's just say I was frequently reminded of Jeremy Hunt. The cast were having great fun and as a result, so did we. Wednesday, 22 January 2014. I was thinking about what makes my boat cosy and homely in winter, apart ftom the obvious - my stove! I'm also addicted to my 2 hot waterbottles to warm up the bed before i get in. I blame Simon! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Nb Briar ...

Blackbird singing...: April 2014
http://carrieblackbirdsinging.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, 12 April 2014. Who'd have thought that Hemel Hempstead would provide me with months of sawdust for my compost toilet! I'm always surprised by the bounty to be found along the canal, whether it's wood for heat, fruit and leaves for food, or sawdust for the loo. Sunday, 6 April 2014. About a lovely folk session we went to and where he triumphed with a borrowed double bass. I think it was the nicest session I've been to. Nb Herbie) that I had a go myself. Here's Sandy Haven.

Blackbird singing...: Bulbourne welcome?
http://carrieblackbirdsinging.blogspot.com/2014/05/bulbourne-welcome.html
Tuesday, 20 May 2014. I moored up at Bulbourne, just above the Marsworth flight, nearly two weeks ago. It's a green and pleasant spot, with the short but delightful Wendover arm ahead and the bird paradise that is the Tring cutting. The towpath is also a lane to some cottages and just as I was tying ropes, a man in a huge car pulled up, opened his window and said "how long are boats allowed to stay here? I'd just that minute arrived so I said I wasn't certain, and he said "is it two weeks? In the same ve...

Blackbird singing...: September 2013
http://carrieblackbirdsinging.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Friday, 13 September 2013. Taken to the cleaners. Ok, I'm just annoyed by the price-hike! Thursday, 12 September 2013. Sunday, 8 September 2013. My otter and other animals. I can't seem to upload any of my photos from my phone at the moment. Disappointing but maybe I'll manage later). We had a great day out at the British Wildlife centre at Lingfield where I finally fulfilled a long-held wish to see a real otter. It was fantastic! It was such a lovely and funny surprise. There was an 'adoption' packa...
