Easter Sunday

This is the lovely old  Stewarts and Lloyds tugboat Reginald,

and this is the shiny new nb Cobbett leaving with it’s JD3 chugging rhythmically away.

This is a pretend boat nb Carrie Lou which was sitting on top of an enormous cheese which everyone thought was a cake!

   

Nb Doctor Bradley’s Linctus, a work in progress, with little Scooby from nb Comfortably Numb. We have  befriended many boating dogs over the weekend and they all got on well together.

There are two black greyhounds on nb Billy Whizz called Walter and Katy, who keeps chasing off after the rabbits. Molly also lives aboard and here she is posing in her Easter frock.

There are several little dogs on nb “They’re Not Whippets” who resemble whippets, but are in fact Italian Greyhounds.

Well the weather forecast for the last three days was wet, wetter and wettest on Monday and they were right. We didn’t notice much though as the mornings were spent doing jobs aboard, then off to Misty’s Bar for the evenings. We did get a bit carried away Sunday night singing along to Mike on his guitar until 4am. It was so much fun that we didn’t really notice how late it was. Anyway we slept well, skipped breakfast and had lunch instead. Having caught up on the washing I went off for a walk around while Bottle caught up with events, comments and photos in the Virtual Pub on the Canal Forum. It rained steadily all day on Monday and there are now only five forum member boaters remaining here. As we are all live-aboards we have the luxury of being able to wait for the rain to stop before moving on.
