Windsong Blog
Roger retired from the RAF in April 2009 and, having become 'canal-aracks' about 15 years ago, we decided to have a narrowboat built to live on in our retirement. We had planned to live on the boat full time, but two bad winters have convinced us that we are not hardy enough, so we are now land-based in the winter,and will be doing extended cruising in the spring, summer and autumn.
