Carol
Married to lovely hubby George since 1969 and having 2 children Sharon and Mark and 6 fast growing grand children, we’d been continuously cruising on narrowboat Rock ’n’ Roll since April 2008. We've now set out on another adventure on our wide beam boat Still Rockin’ built in Droitwich and launched at Braunston in July 2014 so we continue our cruising … on the rivers and wider ditches around the UK.
