Part 2 - Chapter 3

"...a powerful hallucinogen and deliriant, which is used spiritually
for the intense visions it produces." (Wikipedia)


"..we had a lot of empty space next to us, affording marina views we'd not had before."




"...a one-ninth scale model of the old town. It really is a clever and beautiful creation."











Individual scenes in glass cases.


 "and an elderly husband returning home to find his
much younger wife in bed and her lover underneath it."




"It turned out to be our worst eating experience for a long time, competing closely
with The Boathouse in Braunston, and an unfortunate choice for a birthday meal."


"We keep busy, doing various smallish jobs around the boat.
We buy tubs and flowers, Gerberas, for the roof. "


"The shelves in our bedroom are hideous..."


"...so we sand them down and revarnish them a better colour, and we make
them less deep, and mount them on more appropriate brackets."


"Our overnight mooring was just north of Norton Junction, opposite Weltonfield Marina..."




Buckby Top Lock.


"Wide canal, beautiful farming countryside, and remarkably
few other craft around. We sailed the world alone."




"Elsan point!"


Flowers doing well.


"In the distance, the water changed. It became less reflective, yet paler."


"It was a thick film of some deposit across the width of the canal,
and extending for hundreds of yards."


"We slowed as we approached, and peered suspiciously
over the edge of the boat as we drifted into it."


Scum on the water - the culprit.


"Are you taking the pith?"
