Rose of Arden: June 2015
http://the-onion-bargee.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 30 June 2015. Spring Summer Cruse 2015 ❷❼. Sabrina Footbridge Worcester to Upton Visitor Moorings. Date 30 June 2015. Overnight the weather was very warm. We decided to make for an early start as we new we might have a long cruising day if moorings were unavailable. Steady cruise and we ended up having to breast up with a boat on either side. I'm hoping that I have convinced them to write up their adventure. Long Tailed Tit, Coot, Moorhen. Butterflies: Meadow Brown, Skipper, Red Admiral. Cyclist...

The Blog That Used to be Starcross: Update on That Barrow
http://narrowboatstarcross.blogspot.com/2015/07/update-on-that-barrow.html
The Blog That Used to be Starcross. Boats, Beer and Buses. Monday, 13 July 2015. Update on That Barrow. Despite the month-long stoppage at the Lune Aqueduct, CRT has asked its volunteer moorings wardens to continue checks. I check the busy Lancaster moorings more often than the rest of my patch and last Friday, after doing so, I continued up to the breach to see what was going on. CRT staff have installed a rather impressive pipe along the towpath to secure the water supply for the section below the leak.

http://nbpistonbroke.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Piston Broke is now sold. PISTON BROKE IS NOW SOLD. Wednesday, 21 November 2012. Oh dear……. I went down to Kent for the weekend and came back with a lovely cough and cold. Something I could really do without, Paul wasn't the happiest of bunnies either as he hadn't seen a soul all the time I was away so was feeling decidedly lonely, for once he was glad to see me back. Links to this post. Monday, 12 November 2012. Well the washing machine arrived and was installed no damage to either the boat or the machi...

NB PISTON BROKE: Will he, wont he, shall he, shant he?
http://nbpistonbroke.blogspot.com/2013/05/will-he-wont-he-shall-he-shant-he.html
Piston Broke is now sold. PISTON BROKE IS NOW SOLD. Sunday, 5 May 2013. Will he, wont he, shall he, shant he? Well in the end he did! Paint that is. After yesterday when it rained and the paint brush was left in situ today dawned cloudy and Paul was convinced that if he started to paint it would rain. Well that was the wrong assumption because by 2pm the sun was shining. The sides were taped up the paint pot opened and off he went. This is the finished article. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

NB PISTON BROKE: April 2013
http://nbpistonbroke.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Piston Broke is now sold. PISTON BROKE IS NOW SOLD. Wednesday, 24 April 2013. The other day we were sat watching the tele when out of the corner of my eye I spotted this great big spider crawling over Crystals leg, it was a good job she was asleep as it wouldn't have survived to see another day. Big bugger wasn't it, I don't like stow always like this at least Paul rescued it and I am sure it is better off on the tow path rather than in the boat. Links to this post. Saturday, 20 April 2013. Where we are...

NB PISTON BROKE: Phew!!!!!
http://nbpistonbroke.blogspot.com/2013/05/phew.html
Piston Broke is now sold. PISTON BROKE IS NOW SOLD. Friday, 10 May 2013. To say that yesterday was a tad blowy would be an understatement. We had planned to go and turn round but that, of course never happened. Although there were quite a few boats that did move and they certainly didn't look as if they were enjoying the experience. This is how the canal looked here. More like water ski-ing weather than boating weather thank goodness it is a bit calmer today. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Rose of Arden: August 2014
http://the-onion-bargee.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 August 2014. Most people know that I enjoy poking fun at CaRT. If I did not poke fun, then I would only end up crying into my beer. So in the spirit of being a bit more upbeat, I decided to do some fractured motivational posters. As a kid I had a few motorcycle posters on my bedroom wall. So I decided to hang a few inland waterways posters on my blog wall. Under this system the. 39,559 then becomes 30,000. Denary for reports. Eureka! Saturday, 30 August 2014. Market Bosworth to Nuts Bridge 16.

The Life of LittleInsect: Spontaneous storage
http://thelifeoflittleinsect.blogspot.com/2014/05/spontaneous-storage.html
The Life of LittleInsect. This is who I am, take me as I am, or leave me - I really don't care. In My ETSY shop now. Friday, 23 May 2014. No, it's not storage that bursts into flames, or storage that just pops out of nowhere. It's actually a sign of how my life (and craft room) are organised. Now, I am generally well-organised. All my tools are held in neat racks. My hundreds (and I'm not joking! So, I buy it and when I get home, I have to decide where to put it. My craft room is a mass of boxes and ...
