Somewhere under the rainbow

We have been promising Dorothy a holiday on the narrow boat and here we are.

We set off yesterday, with fine weather.




And we tried to tell her how to do the locks but Alison still ended up doing most of the work.



The rest of the day was very wet so despite having amazing fish and chips and exploring Stourport there are no more pictures.

Today it was much nicer and time to get the radio out and listen to TMS.



The Staffordshire and Worcestershire canal is beautiful though sometimes a little narrow.



It was still conspicuous that nobody else volunteers to take the tiller and therefore have to do the locks.

There is little complaint about the amount of work they have to do though.

Maybe the following picture says why. Find a helper and let them do it all.



We finally made it to Kinver and got a nice mooring. A pity we can only stay for 24 hours here.
