We are a retired couple who after living abroad for 5 years are now living in Levin, New Zealand.
From October 2006 we cruised the inland waterways of Britain. We sold Narrowboat Gypsy Rover in July 2010 and continued our travels around the UK in our new Motorhome. In August 2011 we returned to New Zealand ahead of our motorhome which arrived in October. Although now land based we will be continuing our travels throughout New Zealand when time allows.

Final Statistics!
2233 locks, 4335.88 miles, 96 tunnels, 131 swing bridges, 58 lift bridges and 6314.5 engine hours since our adventure began. Wow now that's something to remember.
My first emotion was sadness at the ending of your story, but I realized it's only a chapter ending and a new one beginning. I thank you for sharing the last one with us, I hope you will share your new chapter with us, and I wish you continued good luck in the future.
Hi Bones Yes we are sorry too, we were not quite ready to quit yet, but these things happen for a reason. We will be continuing the blog with all our travels

And how many loads of washing have you done? Bet you never counted them!
My very best wishes for your new future.
