What Retirement?

When we had our needlecraft shop, many of our customers who were retired used to complain that there were never enough hours in the day since they retired, I used to think they were exaggerating, they were not. The idea of retiring to a narrowboat was to lead life at a maximum of 4mph so far we have been more stressed than when we owned our own business, well not quite, a nicer kind of stress. Today we managed, with our childrens help the last placement of our cars, to Brinklow Marina on the North Oxford Canal. Yes, finally seeing where our permanent, albeit transient base will be. Tomorrow will be the start of the next cruise from Cropredy to Brinklow.
