All aboard for some narrow boat rag rugging!


Last weekend I did some Rag Rug sessions with 'Spirited Away' guests, during Float By Boat's 'October Off-grid' weekend. Fantastic fun - great company.

Nourishing food....
 
  
 
 
Also nourished by peaceful meditations afloat
 and gentle solitary walks along the towpath,
and an entertaining walk full of laughter,
 in the company of my cabin mate Sarah!
 
crab apples along the towpath
 
I never sleep so well as on board a narrow boat moored in the middle of nowhere!

 I've come home with a new favourite poem too
 (Carol Ann Duffy's 'Prayer' read by Tor before an evening mediation).
