Your best bet is to buy either "Canal Boat" or "Waterways world" from the newsagents.
The waterways world annual magazine is out at the moment. Theres lots of information for first time buyers in there. I saw a copy in WHsmiths.
I havnt found much on the net, it seems that its one area that...
If you buy a new one at £50,000 maybe.
But if you shop around you can get an older boat that needs tidying for substantualy less.
If you get a cruising licence for the waterways and dont mind moving about you dont need a mooring and the associated costs. In my younger days I used to work at...
Have you thought about a narrow boat?
Slough isnt that far from the Thames or canal network.
The slough arm runs off the grand union from Cowley.
Everything you want has already been done in a boat and you would have more room.

Sorry, not trying to hijack the thread.
If anyone else is interested in Tika and Utonagans, either pm me or Ill start a thread off topic.

No wolf content as wolf blood is illegal in the UK. They originaly took German Shepard, Siberian Husky and Alaskan Malumute to get the rough idea then bred to get closer to the wolfie look.
Hes about 5th...
Thanks for the tip on moving the pack forward.
Now hes bigger it fits better and is further forward.
The straps were a bit long when he was younger.

This isnt very buschcrafty but sometimes you want a bit more comfort and technology on some trips.
You can get 12 volt to laptop adaptors for pretty much any laptop you want.
So you can run it from the car 12 volt source.
How about one of the jump/leasure battery packs.
Not much use if you...
Its a great idea your pack looks good.
My Tika has a pack and is happy to carry his own supplies when we are walking any distance. The only problems I have is making sure it all stays balanced as we use up water, by far the heaviest item in his bags.
So I use a couple of water bladders and try...
It was a very warm day on Friday and I had to explain to my kids what the couple were doing on the blanket behind the tree. My dog was much more curious and had to go and poke his nose in, literaly.

Thats bit of a wait?
I got mine within a couple of days from amazon.

I think I must have got mine through one of the associated traders on amazon.
Maybe you could cancel your existing order and switch to one of the...
