Monday 8th April Much a’day o’fives t’weir yesterday. Just kept on a’coming. Knead t’escape dis shadowy lagoon. Lister & chums combine (‘arvester)
in propulsing our Bart bye delightful countryside, gliding almoist effortlessly along thee Arm d’ Market Harborough. Gradual progress makes us arrive sum thyme later than when said wanderings commenced. Aft a slumberly lie in, ov coarse. Specially aft yesterday’s crazy departurings !!
The Market Harborough ‘Arm’ should ne’er ‘av bean just sum kind o’ almoist forgotten apendage. In 1793 the original concept was for a canal connecting Leicester with Northampton, finally linking up with the Grand Junction Canal near Northampton. Built to broad beam dimensions, the Leicestershire and Northamptonshire Union Canal had stretched South from Leicester, reaching the village of Debdale when financial problems prevented progress for over a decade. When construction did finally continue the canal evolved, flowing by the village of Foxton and successfully onto Market Harborough by 1809. Unfortunately work never progressed further South towards the intended destination of Northampton as the money had run out again. Knot longer aft, a cheaper narrow beam link to the Grand Union was constructed between Foxton and Norton, with mammoth watery lock rises/descendings at Foxton and Watford, with a twenty three mile pound between the two lock flights. The Leicester line was opened in 1814. Later intentions to fund widening Watford and Foxton lock flights to accommodate broadbeam craft never materialised.
Tuesday 9th April Tis shall bee a staticness o’relaxtion. With a few Barty jobs of coarse. And so it shall bee !! Aaaarrrggh !!!
Wednesday 10th April Weed aboat turned in Union Wharf basin aft taking advantage o’facilities on Monday and then secured Bart’s lines so today we
manage an efficient escape through the reads to a moist pleasant Aquavenue. A Splendid location two rest if e’er their weir. An unfortunate incident occurs as we is coming in t’land.

Dopey old Woolly jumbuck (who ‘ad jumped on skippet’s back) getz ‘is nethery tendrils caught in Lister’s alternator pulley belts. Knot Good !! Lister be stopped n aft securing fore n stern lines using said mooring chains investigations do commence. Weir quite nasty. Luckily all OK. Unpleasant smells in Lister’s room. Alti hath beecum quite hot n bovered. Wiv belts slackened off, alti can be rotated and those trapped n painfully ripped tendrils dragged inta’ Alti’s body izbee caerphilly removed, bit bye straggly bit. Quite messy. One of t’ fan blades ‘av bent two. Will be left az iz. Might break if forced back. Knot wurth t’ risk. Both V-belts are looking relatively suspicious so skip takes action. New belts signed fore, handed over by that quatermaster chappie, fitted & tensioned. Dat unpleasant smell has faded so Lister bee woken up agin and tings seam OK. Positive readings from battery monitor backup positive thoughts. Will keep an eye on tings to make shore all be OK in coming daize.
