That is the plan eventually, Just haven't fully decided when I want to commit
Want to do another van conversion first & see more of the UK & possibly the world before settling down

Cool, one of my mates in Towcester sold up last year and bought a canal boat. He’s really enjoying the way of life even though he’s moored up near Bugbrokke

My friends have lived on theirs for over 4 years now
We moved it from Milton Keynes to Ringstead
Not really that interested in a bricks & mortar lifestyle personally

It the future its one thing I would love to do buy at the moment we just don't have the facility to build one from scratch. You never know what the future holds though.

Boat update. It taken longer than expected due to work load but the boat is now water tight for winter.
The new front section of cabin is complete with its front doors.
The back of the cabin also has its new doors plus a proper hatch.
The bigger windows are fitted and the pigeon box on the roof.
I've created a gas locker in the bow of the boat.
In the new year I'll get the rear seat/battery boxes fabricated and fitted. I've got some extra portholes, vents and mushroom vents to fit. Then I shall be able to start the interior fit out.

too much is when I can’t drink any more.
I’m always the camp jack so move onto spirits.
I was sea sick once, only the once. Bloody 5ft waves in the canal, who’d have thought eh ?
