155b Not A Vlog: Weedon to Whilton
155a Not A Vlog: Blisworth to Weedon
Vlog 155: The End is Nigh
Vlog 154: The Ghost of Blisworth Past
After several days at Yardley Gobion, during which time I had the boatyard opposite look at – and hopefully fix – the diesel leak, I carried on with my return journey up the Grand Union canal, going back through Gayton, up the Stoke Bruerne locks and up through Blisworth tunnel (no signs of any ghosts this time round).
Vlog 153: I Canuck Believe Who’s Aboard!
151a Not A Vlog: Grove lock to Stoke Hammond
Vlog 151: I Should Be So Locky
In anticipation of both some friends coming to join me for an afternoon, and then some special guests from overseas coming aboard a few days later, I edged just a few miles further north on this leg of my trip up the Grand Union canal, mooring my narrowboat at a point where both sets of visitors could easily find and get to me.
150a. Not A Vlog: realtime cruising up the Wendover Arm
Vlog 150: Wending my way
Having turned around at Cowroast, my narrowboat journey on the Grand Union canal now continued north but with a diversion down the short length of the restored Wendover Arm. The navigable canal is only about 1.5 miles long so far and I found it quite narrow and shallow but quite scenic. I moored right at the far end where there’s a large winding hole.
