  1. *New episode*
    Great excitement last week as nine geese flew onto our moorings. Join us tonight on the 'Erica' and find out what happened and why geese might not be quite so different from us as we might think.

  2. The term “hosepipe ban” does not mean a blanket ban on any use of hosepipes, it means specific uses are restricted. You can check these on the website of the relevant water company. For example here are the restrictions from South East Water southeastwater.co.uk/about/upd So please before you decide to police someone’s use of the hose, make sure you know the terms you are policing. #hosepipeBan #boatLife 2/2

  3. A little #hosepipeBan tip for anyone who lives around #boatLife folk. If you see someone using a hosepipe to fill their boat (or Van, or other domicile)’s water tanks, especially if it is a blue foodsafe hose, this is NOT a violation of the ban. This is equivalent to them drawing mains water for drinking and domestic use. We usually do not connect our boats directly to mains water pressure as this causes a sinking risk. So filling tanks is our only way to get domestic water supply. 1/2

  4. It's been a HOT week in the UK (particularly on a steel narrowboat)! So come and enjoy the cool of the evening with us onboard the Erica as we 'freewheel' into a warm summer night.

  5. Nestled along the rugged Berwickshire coast in Eyemouth, the harbour exudes the charm of a traditional #FishingVillage with rows of quaint cottages overlooking calm tidal waters. Colourful fishing boats and lobster pots line the quay, reflecting a community deeply connected to #BoatLife and the rhythms of the sea. Visitors enjoy the tranquil #CoastalViews, where emerald hills meet the rocky shoreline, creating a perfect #SeasideEscape. The town’s historic harbour is a favourite stop for walkers and nature enthusiasts exploring Scotland’s stunning #HarbourTown heritage.
