Middle Levels - Day#1

 Friday 16th May 2025

 A trip in an area that we've not visitied before, on land or water. The nearest we ever got with Jannock was Peterborough.

We drove to Fox Narrowboats, just outside March, and moved all our stuff aboard Platinum Fox. Everything about the boat was explained to us and then we were off! 

 

Our plan was to moor up in March centre and spend time getting all our stuff sorted and generally making ourselves at home. We reversed to moor up at the library moorings as the bridge moorings were full up. 

Then we visited the local Wetherspoons (the Hippodrome) as we had been told that the interior was worth seeing as it was an old cinema. The decor was excellent with lots of period cinema posters on the walls. The food was good as well and Graham was over the moon as they had Thornbridge Jaipur on handpump, one of his favourite beers.

We returned to Platinum Fox via the town centre to see where the Saturday (tomorrow) market was likely to be. We also noticed an Indian Restaurant called Gurkha Spice which looked interesting, but having already eaten we decided to save that for the last night aboard.

Once aboard Graham found that the TV was not working properly, the remote control did not work and all functions were not available using the buttons on the TV itself. Off on our travels tomorrow.
