The
boat was really hot when we got back to it and it was even worse the next day
as Pa disappeared off and left Ma and I to fry on the boat. Pa came back with visitors – Niamhy along
with Aunty Penny and Uncle Jim. I love
having visitors but AP and Niamh disappeared off again but left Uncle Jim.

| Help I'm stuck! |
We
then spent two days going through lots of locks most of which I was allowed to
help at. Thankfully the weather got
cooler otherwise I don’t think I could have taken the pace. I got chance to play with a few other dogs
but more often than not I was quickly caught and put on my lead as soon as
another dog was in sight – why can they always see other dogs before me??
Naimhy
joined us again – I do love her but she will snarl at me and I get the feeling
that she doesn’t really love me L Oh of course Aunty Penny came too!

| The revs looks about right to me |
We
had to go through a very long tunnel and I have never been so frightened in my
life. I wasn’t allowed on the back deck
with Pa – I had to sit at the front with Ma.
It was very dark, noisy and cold and I whined until Ma realised that I
wasn’t happy. She got a towel and
wrapped me up and cuddled me until I felt better. The tunnel was 3 miles long and it took an
hour and a half to go through – I thought it would never end but suddenly there
was daylight again – phew!

| Is it safe to get off? |
I
fell in the canal today – I guess it was my own fault as I tried to jump from
the bank onto the boat and missed!
However I almost made it but not quite and hit my face on the side of
the boat before crashing into the water.
I swam to the side (yes I actually swam) and Pa pulled me out. I didn’t make a big fuss as, I have to admit,
I was rather ashamed of myself. There
were no warm towels and sympathy for me – great parents I have eh?
