Pennine Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 My very first canal holiday. Aboard nb Ernest Thomas in 1958. A school organised holiday for fortnight, from Autherley up to Chester, then to Weston Point, and back to Autherley. The following year we went from Walsall to Oxford to vist the AERE at Harwell, where we were mightily impressed by a computer that could print a picture of a naked woman! Fred Morley was skipper both times, as can be seen here in this pic. Lovely bloke. Whilst we kipped on folding bunks hung from chains, Fred kipped on a pipe bunk slung over the engine, a BMC 1500.
