No Problem with NABO!

Moored Nether Heyford, GU Canal

I will get that name right.. Nether Heyford it is, not all the other names I have been calling it!

Nether Heyford, actually, is a lovely village. A very short distance from the canal where there are very good moorings to be able to visit. Down the hill, taking 10 minutes, not the 5 minutes advertised on the bridge for the pub down there by the way! A Post Office and Cost Cutter all in one, with a very good selection of groceries.

It also has a butcher.. but beware he closes at 12.30pm on a Monday other than that open all other days all day. There is a huge village green.. it looks far too big for the tiny village, and a couple of pubs, none of which we visited... I enjoy having a pint for sure when we pass.. but not if I have to trapse uphill on the way back!

NABO, the National Association of Boat Owners have responded at last to the Proposed Licence Increases by British Waterways.. NP and it's crew are members of NABO.

We decided to join this year so that we could have some representation on boating politics, and oh boy there sure are some at the moment!  NABO’s response for those interested - click here

We are both delighted with what they have said, and hope that British Waterways take notice of their comments!

I am worrying about THAT tunnel that we have to go through to reach Braunston.. so we are dithering.. I made a comment on Andrew's blog the other day about me dithering.. at that time I wrote a note to myself  "Thou shalt not dither on important issues".. well I suppose it is important that we get through Braunston Tunnel, so I best get on with it!  Please help me out and don't use the tunnel on Thursday when I will be coming through!!
