All mine

I went up to Whilton at the weekend and the boat is now officially mine now.  I have the bill of sale and the BSS paperwork and they have all my money :(

I thought I'd take this opportunity to go and fill up with diesel.  This entailed motoring out of the marina and onto the canal for a couple of hundred meters.  I've not driven a narrowboat for over 20 years so I was a little nervous.  But it went ok with no bumping other boats.  The fun bit was reversing back into the marina, but this too was done without incident and I feel pretty pleased with myself.  Fingers crossed, next weekend will see her leaving Whilton for her new home.
