On the move....

Well, tomorrow is the day. We're off on our travels again, all washing,spring clean! Done. All appointments, acupuncture,glasses, done...
Can't wait to get moving now.
Heading to Liverpool for 11th April for 2 weeks stay in the dock, with the company of our good friends Dot & Colin on their boat Ascot.
And after that, who knows...well for us the trip to Liverpool will have been far too fast so we will probably spend a lot longer heading back. certainly stopping a week here and there when we have places to discover...
Kal, our 15 yr old who lives aboard as a home schooled teenager is now wanting his own space....a boat....that sounds really good and would give him his very own space to retreat to when he's had enough of us and vice versa but not sure I would want him sleeping on it. One problem, no money to buy a boat!! Ha So if you know anybody who has a boat that they want to relieve themselves of that will go to a caring home for a very good reason at a price equivalent to £0.00 or as near as damn it please get in touch lois2626@hotmail.co.uk
I don't mean to sound cheaky but sometimes there are boats hanging around that people just want someone else to take the responsibility of, we're all together 24/7 and we really do feel that bit of space would be such an asset.
Anyway roll on tomorrow and if you see us don't forget to waive ........

feeling on edge

Well it has to be time to move on now. Winter seems to be over and I am getting very on edge, need to get moving so we think Tuesday is our last day here and then were heading for Liverpool....can't wait ......

Feb is here and nearly gone..

Looking to be moving on next week...we are booked in at Liverpool for the 11th April and will be joining our friends Dot & Colin on nb Ascot.
They are currently moored at the Boat&Butty on the Runcorn arm whilst we're in Nantwich.
We would like to move this week but were hanging around for 2 Crewe F.C. Matches on Sat and next tues' please don't think out nb lives are ruled by football, I have averted interest as my son plays right back for them....
Really can't wait to get moving now.

new year ahead

Well what a new year, 5 days of mayhem on a caravan rally in Farndon. Fed and entertained all day every day with themed evenings of old english, posh night, medieval and school disco. Absolutely the best way to spend bringing in the new year... Back to reality now though and we have booked for Liverpool Dock in April which we can't wait for. Start cruising beginning feb and make a slow cruise towards liverpool taking in everything along the way. We are so lucky to have this life. We have a couple of rally's tucked in between now and then so that Kal ,our 14 year old gets to socialise with friends his age. Roll on Feb . . .

THE FREEZE

Well I don't know where it is but having got caught out on the 24th Nov last year we are enjoying the milder winter weather.
We have bren hovering around Nantwich but can't really stay much longer. It seems all the liveaboards congregate here including those who have moirings just over the aquaduct, can't really blame them getting closer to the wayer source.
We have been on a couple of caravan rallys and have another one booked. Looking forward to christmas and the new year. Hope everyone has a great time.

winter thoughts. .

Well here we are, we have been wandering around been away in the caravan on some wonderful rallies that do our home schooled son the world of good. Were now just coming back onto the shropshire union and wondering where we will end up for the big freeze. Hopefully nearer a tap than last year. Having the time of our lives. Looking forward to the weekend nd the bonfire rally in Congleton
