I travelled back in time today by 100 years, well actually about 70 ft. I kept having sneaky looks at the boatman’s cabin to see what was going on and then finally this afternoon I walked in and thought WOW! It is so cute and pretty and it’s like playing dolls houses when you were little. Roy has got it looking just like the narrowboats used to be, well he did once he removed the Dyson Hoover. It really looks quite magical.

There are little hidey hole cupboards everywhere. One of them looks like one of those confession booths you get in churches, well it does if you are only 5 inches tall. Everything is just so cute. Roy has even put his brass knobs up??!! Always count on me to lower the tone 😉

The lace looks fantastic. For the first time since we have had Foxglove the boatman’s cabin is starting to feel really homely, especially with the oil lamp (actually 12 volt) that he has put up. The stove was all lit and it is was really warm and cosy in there. Must get some jacket potatoes cooked in there tomorrow when we are on our travels, a good book and a glass of wine……perfect!
