How to Leave a Comment on Our Blog. Monday, June 30, 2014. Video trip and the canal charity event. Towards the end a Heron does what herons do and flies ahead several times before it gets brave and allows us to cruise by. Was from Paddington to Bletchley and gave several sta...

NB Fruit of The Vine: May 2015
http://fruitofthevine-keith.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
NB Fruit of The Vine. Wednesday, 6 May 2015. 2015 Cruising Season Approaches. Since we winterised our boat in November last year she has entered the dry dock in Stourport in order to be blacked. A decision was made to splash out and have her grit blasted and a two part epoxy coating applied working on the principal that this method is more cost effective. So we might stave off fitting PV panels on the roof until we can disprove this theory. We are planning our main summer trip this time heading for the R...

Places we have visited: May 2015
http://visitsbyharnser.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Places we have visited. This Blog give some detail and photographs on some of the places we visit, not the journey to get there. Monday, 18 May 2015. The town does have some old buildings but most of these were lost due to bad subsidence when some of the old Salt mines collapsed mainly due to poor engineering and water erosion. In Victorian times they were building timber framed so that they could be jacked up as the ground subsided. There is now a new marina in town and just behind it are the remains of...

NB Windsong: An unexpected meeting…..
http://nb-windsong.blogspot.com/2015/06/an-unexpected-meeting.html
Wednesday, 3 June 2015. An unexpected meeting…. Having left Twyford Wharf on Sunday morning, and moored just short of Cropredy, we continued on yesterday to Fenny Compton. The wind got increasingly strong during the day, and we got caught in ne or two heavy showers. As we arrived at Fenny, the heavens opened once more, the wind rose to gale force and we had horizontal hail! While we were mooring a couple walked by with suitcases. Suddenly, the chap turned and said ‘Roger’? 3 June 2015 at 17:15. We had a ...

Thursday, 30 October 2014. Relocation, relocation, relocation…. On Monday morning, bright and early due to our body clocks still being on British Summer time, we waved goodbye to Gayton Marina for the last time and set out for the short trip to Brinklow Marina, which is to be Windsong’s new home. A last sight of Gayton Marina on the left through the bridge, and the Northampton Arm of the GU. Our mooring for Monday night. On Tuesday morning, we again set out reasonably early (for us! As you can imagine it...

Tuesday, 31 December 2013. To all our readers…. Please join us later on in January, as the Windsong crew travel to France for an extended 5 week holiday in the Dordogne (dependant of course on internet access! Tuesday, 17 December 2013. Having just realised that I hadn’t put the answer to the quiz question, although if anyone looked at the comments they’ll know it was at home in Northants, I thought I’d better update you all on our doings since then. We hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas and I&...
