It's raining, it's pouring

And we have opted to stay put - for now anyway. We were going to move off this morning at 9.30 but a look out of the porthole at the teeming rain persuaded me to pick up the phone and call NB Matilda Rose - "We're not going in this are we? - (Subtle or what?) - and the predictable answer came back - "No let's hold off and see what the weather does."
So fire lit, heating on, cup of tea to hand, I will watch the wet stuff outside, from the inside for a wee while.
Wimp!

Sounds very sensible to me, assuming you're in no desperate rush to get anywhere!

Here, here!!! We have turned into fair weather boaters too! Also laid up for a day or two, but the excuse is that we can't get to Sawley Flood Lock until Fri 20th as there is a stoppage - what a shame!!!
