Now its double trouble with No Problems in Devizes

Moving between Devizes, Honey St and Pewsey.. Kennet and Avon Canal

Goodness it was cold this morning, was -2 last night, and I wasn't too keen on sliding out from under the duvet this morning!

But hey, when I looked outside, it was one of those choc box scenes, with white everywhere. A very heavy frost had taken hold. In the trees were hundreds and hundreds of spiders webs revealed by the damp of the evening before and the cold icy air giving an awesome sight that no human could recreate. We pulled the pins, and tried our best to coil the ropes, but they had to be laid in a solid state on top of No Problem..

Nr All Cannings, K & A Canal

We were on the move to Devizes to take the keys of No Problem Mk2... The deal is done and today I set about getting quotes for insurance.. shouldn't have bothered. The insurance company I use for Mk1 ended up the best deal for Mk2!

I also had to renew the BW Licence for No Problem, it won't be a 'Gold' Licence this year for her.. sad really, we have had such happy times, I am sure I am going to cause the canal to flood when I finally say goodbye to her..

Still, not this side of Christmas.. and we enjoyed a day cruising along the K & A, here Vic closing one of the swing bridges close to Devizes..

So with the paperwork complete we took over the ownership proper of Mk2, and made sure the insurance was in place. We will live on No Problem while we refit parts of Mk2 to make her a bit more comfortable.. that way we probably lead a normalish life while the refit takes place! smilie

Now it is just a matter of planning the order of work and what we need to complete it.. Ah easy peasy!! smilie
