Thursday 31st December
On the nicest day of the winter I slept in until 8am. Dog walk and breakfast took us up to 9:30am, and then checking the map, if we set off at 10:00 we could be at Autherley Junction about 11:30am, then Aldersley at 11:45 and into the first lock of the Wolverhampton [...]
Continue Reading →Big Lock, 19th December 2009 Thanks to the lady with the dog who pointed out that BW had put the wrong dates on this notice. Should of course have been 19th December and 20th December – but I never even noticed either.
Continue Reading →What an anticlimax coming home to lashing rain and colder temperatures this morning than we had in a week of travelling through Latvia, Estonia and Finland.
Looking outside at the rain I can’t get inspired to write anything about canals today so here’s a few jottings about our holiday instead. Personally I can’t see the attraction [...]

Continue Reading →Early January is certainly the coldest time I have ever spent living aboard. Temperatures overnight reached minus 16C according to local measurements, and the canal was well frozen for days on end.
Sadly while away from Zulu I neglected to properly drain the Paloma water heater so I can only blame myself for the new shower feature in the kitchen, consisting [...]
Continue Reading →Last week I was concerned that Norman, the resident moorer at Big Lock moorings, was not around. On previous visits he was always there – sitting outside with dog Holly, a rollup and a mug of tea putting the world to right with all the passing dog walkers, or pottering around on the moorings where he has [...]
Continue Reading →I don’t know why I do it, but every year or two I feel an urge to go to the IWA National boat festival and so with Wolverhampton in striking distance of Zulu I decided to go.
By the time Saturday arrived Zulu was in Polesworth, so after realising I had moored in a wasps [...]
