The house sale is finally completed after a year of hassle and we live in an apartment (posh name for flat) awaiting completion of our narrowboat 'Bendigedig'. The name of our narrowboat is welsh and means wonderful or blessed as we thought it would be wonderful to have our own boat after many, many narrowboat holidays. After lots of research on the internet we chose the Northwich Boat Company to build us a 57 foot traditional narrowboat, as we wanted a british built boat. We found them very helpful when we met them at the Preston Brook IWA Show last August 2005. We booked a build slot and put the house on the market. It finally sold in February 2006 but delay after delay within the chain meant we had to put back the start of the boat until August 2006. The shell is now being built in Cheshire and we look forward to seeing it completed at the end of this month.

Hi Elsie.
Congratulations to your and your husband Eric, for getting to live the dream. Like you we are also living the dream, and like you had delay after delay due to selling the house and the problems that goes with it. For us we moved onto our NB Misty Lady January 2005, so we could await the building of our new NB Hadar, which is being built by Roger Fuller in Stone, Staffs, so not far from your boat.
It is of course an exciting time for you and I wish you all the luck in the world. If your ever passing through Stone I will look out for you. If you see the boat in Roger Fullers Basin give us a hoot.
Best of luck I will add you to my blog list.
