RIP Hoobie

Sorry we haven't posted for so long but we have had an eventful time to much to tell.
But I thought todays news needed airing here. Our beloved Hoobie passed away this morning
at Mum's house in Stoke. His lump on his neck finally got to big. He died peacefully in no pain 
at the bottom of the stairs looking to go outside as usual.

The Reason we are in Stoke is that my Mum has had a stroke and is in hospital so he boat is in
Scholar Green and we are in a house . Looks like we will be here til Christmas.
Well I will try to post a little more often Bye for now Dave & Beryl.

Boy does time fly. We are currently at Fazeley we left Ashton marina on 2 Jan went as far as Rugeley stayed a few days then returned to Great Haywood lock closures so we decided to go to Penkridge for a little Market therapy like retail therapy but a little cheaper. Richard joined us for a weekend,
We then returned to Great Haywood. The towpath just about everywhere is so wet and muddy Hoobie manages to bring most of it in with him,Beryl is not at all impressed. We are making our way to the Grand Union to head south would have liked to go on the Soar and Leicester line but winter works on Trent and Mersey stop us so it's the Coventry and Oxford canal to Braunston. £120 lighter today Domestic alternator gave up the Ghost luckily with having a smartgauge and smartbank fitted it automatically transfers the output from the engine alternator to the domestic bank after charging the starter battery only indication was that it was taking longer to charge the batteries each day.RCR fitted new one this afternoon. Of for a walk into Tamworth tomorrow.
Bye for now Beryl and Dave
