Lottie D is a 57' cruiser stern narrow boat named after our daughter Charlotte. With us both finally retired it's time to record our life on the canal network.

Back to Dunham

Well, almost. Having just checked we are actually in Little Bollington. Nothing of note to report today other than thank God it's a week day and most of those yoghurt pots (fibreglass cruisers) are tied up again. The way they zoom around on a weekend is intensely annoying. Yesterday we had one that came charging up behind us at an estimated 7 mph with a stern wash almost breaking onto the towpath. I immediately pulled to one side and waved him through only to find him stopped just around the next corner, knocking his pins in.
Today we arrived at our destination mid afternoon, again marvelling at this beautiful weather. We don't know whether to move on tomorrow or stay another night. We will see how we feel in the morning.
Tonight it's pork tostadas with taco sauce over tortilla chips topped with melted cheese and sour cream. All freshly prepared, of course!
Delicious!
We decided to let this fester intensify in flavour for a while so it was down the The Swan with Two Nicks for a pint. A quick scoot under the aqueduct and we where there - perfect!
