Thanks Meryl and Kate
Yes, I’d love to do a barge holiday. As soon as my mobility is better, I’ll definitely give it some thought.
We live very near Mercia Marina in Derbyshire

On a canal boat at this very moment! Lovely relaxing yet interesting holiday. When the weather’s good, can’t beat it. Relentless rain, though, everything becomes grim very quickly.
Try a weekend and see!

I lived on a boat for 20 years. 1979-1999.
Experiences, far too many to mention.
We did spend one year sailing through the French canals and rivers to the Mediterranean ( Marseilles. And then of course, home again.

Hello!

I’ve been chatting to a couple of posters about boat life; one who already lives on a boat, and other whose husband would like to.

I’d love to live on a boat; but I’m fully aware that I’ve got a very idealised, romantic view of things…
Also, it would be pretty impossible for me in reality at the moment.

But in the meantime, I’d love to hear your experiences
Thank you! x
