The captain gave me a choice today. Either I had a shower or she would keelhaul me. So, a shower it was. Ha, ha, I thought, if I adjust the water heater to a lower temperature I can have a hot shower without the thermostat shutting everything down. How wrong can you be!? Whoomph, and hot water came through. In I jumped and the gas cut out. Well, as the captain said afterwards "cold showers are meant to be good for you."
We set off towards Crick, passing through Yelvetoft on the way.
We've stopped here many times in the past but not today. Crick was calling and we wanted to get there in time for lunch.
We made it, just in time for lunch at the Pickle and Pie at 23.
Afterwards a visit to the Co-op to top up supplies and then back to the boat.
The canal bridge at Crick has this odd looking pipe in the centre. I'm sure that someone told me that it used to be used for watering canal boats. I don't know if that's true or not but it makes a good tale.
Anyway, back to the boat in time for a cuppa and a snooze.
