Little moves

After a night of rain we a greeted to a lovely sunny morning, we say goodbye to our last night neighbours and off we set again. The canal is high on its embankment giving us lovely view over farmland and soon we are at Turners Green with its lovely beamed house adjacent to the canal and its not long before we turn off the Grand union and on to the spur that links to the Stratford On Avon canal. Here we moor up for the night, just as a down pour breaks over our heads, which doesn't last for long as the blue sky's reappear.

The story of idle women, was that during the Second World War women took up the challenge of moving cargo in the narrowboats and on there uniforms were the letters I W which became the nick name Idle Woman, but really was the initials for Inland Waterways.

And her is someone with too much time on her hands .
