Broken down in the basin at the head of the Erewash Canal, waiting for RCR to help us with a broken alternator bracket.

 

Actually a very nice place to be stuck.

Think we are hiring on the Broads again next year. Some friends want to go so think we are going with them.

 

They want to hire from Brooms so think we are going to hire three of their Captains. 

 

Not hired from there before so it will make a nice change.
