Gas..stronomy

As we thought a cold night, I thought we had covered everything that the cold may effect but forgot the gas, while cooking breakfast it ran out.....not a problem we have two bottles ....just switch over and on we can go.....no  the lid at the bow the covers the gas hole was frozen solid ( hole pronounced   'ole  is the word used for all things on narrow boats ie engine 'ole  bed 'ole store 'ole and so on )    so pour some warm  water on it to un-freeze it.....no warm water cos the gas has gone out, anyway we heated some water on the stove and were in business


                                                              Gas locker is the square panel just above the red circle


We did have a partly frozen canal but a slight breeze kept in moving enough to stop a full freeze

   Boat Spot 

The saloon, just behind the cratch area on our boat, covers a lot of roles
Bar
Library
Entertainment centre
general relaxation zone
Oh yes ...usually  dog sleeping area...most important.




Two wooden doors lead into the cratch seating area well they do on warmer days !!



We're preparing for another cold night, the fire is lit day and night which means we get up in the night to add fuel.

Bye for now
Baz and Ali
