We woke to a cold frosty morning. Even had a frozen hatch
Busy day planned. We have brought some new leisure batteries and need to put them in. The old ones are going to a local boater who can not afford to replace hers. She will get far more from them than us selling them to recycling centre. My husband removed them from the boat and I put each battery on my shopping trolley and moved them to her boat. It was an icy morning so took a little while but well worth it. My husband was putting in new ones while moved old ones.
I then decided on a few trips to tesco to stock the boat with tins. Just in case we get stuck in ice or snow. While i was shopping my husband got chatting to lovely man who said he got divorced at 65 and decided to go back packing around the World. Came back and decided to buy a narrowboat. He has been cruising ever since. He has been cruising as part of a pair with a lovely lady. It was such a lovely friendship made me think how fantastic the boating community are.
After doing normal boating house keeping like water and toilets. We decided to move on. My husband moved the car and I moved the boat. It was a such a beautiful evening. Photo mooring up for evening :-)
