This is my boat, moored up for the night, whilst on a journey on the River Trent, taken in 2006.

And as the darkness of night closes in, the cozy little cabin shows its charm.

Have you still got it Rich ?

@Alun Lambert: Unfortunately this spot on the river was a bit remote, but luckily, I had plenty of drink on board, so we were very happy...

How utterly cool! I love the shot and what a great-looking boat!

@Bookfool: Many thanks. She is just a little boat, but has a big personality.

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

I read somewhere that we might all be living on these, soon . . she looks well-loved.

@Ronnie 2¢: Thanks. We re-painted her blue in late 2007, but put her up for sale this summer. She may be sold by next week, so I posted it as a kind of farewell.

I'm rather envious of you and your boat... what a wonderful way to relax ;-) Nicely romantic image, Richard. But you're selling her?? Too bad... somehow I think that was a tough decision.
