We had planned for Mark to join us after work tonight and Hemel Hempstead station looks close to the canal. Annie was reaching the end of her tether with tiredness but we had to press on, with Annie taking over the driving and me doing the locks. All the locks were against us which slowed us down somewhat but still managed to moor up near the station at 4.30pm.
We walked into the town centre and found as Asda store to catch up on food shopping before Mark arrived. I walked over to the station to meet hom at 8.30pm. Annie did us all a lovely curry - looking forward to having Mark on board! Noone got much sleep as the rain on the roof was so heavy.
These are the voyages of Ken, Annie and dog Peggy. As we cruise we will try and keep the blog up-to-date - internet access permitting of course. Ceilidh is a 54ft cruiser style narrowboat. It was built by J Pinder Ltd for Black Prince hire boats in 1995.
