First Blog

Well at last I have decided to put a blog together. Don't know how it will work out but i'll give it a go.
A little about me Worked for 28 years as Catering Manager for the Local Authority retired for 5 years. Married to Bernard for 46 years Bernard had his own business as a Building Contractor. Have two children and four grandchildren. Have been caravanning for 36 years with a touring caravan and boating for 11 years we've had two cruisers moored at Tewkesbury on the river Avon and Upton on Severn on the river Severn. When we retired we decided to buy a new narrow boat we have a Liverpool Boat by the new boat Co. we were moored on the river Severn at Upton for 3 years with it but found it frustrating because when the river flooded we couldn't leave the marina so 2 years ago we moved moorings to Barton Turns Marina Nr Burton on Trent where we are quite happy. More car miles to travel from home as we live in South Wales but worth it as we can always get out.
Thursday 3rd May we are going to Barton Turns and taking the boat out for 8 days.
