I love to see what other people do to the interior of their boats, I am going to make radical changes to the interior of Tickety Boo in the not too distant future, once the hard work on the outside is done I can have fun on the inside designing a new colour scheme!

I started this because I live in a tiny house & get ideas for storage from them. This led to the blogs....and now I am addicted. I love tiny homes but, alas, I love my garden even more and a few pots on the roof would not suffice, so I remain a distant admirer!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109183493763320024.post-64527163219166851672011-05-03T14:57:53.553-07:002011-05-03T14:57:53.553-07:00Hi Paul, great to hear from you.

Only joking, I think you should follow your dream, as I did, It is a wonderful way of life, not always plain sailing, pun intended, but non the less if it is truly what you want, go for it! Good luck, keep in touch and let us know how your getting on.

I just read the Email from Christine...Hello Debbie<br /><br />I just read the Email from Christine you posted, and It was a bit of a deja vu moment in what she wrote. Why? you may ask,<br /><br />Well, I stumbled across a narrow boaters blog about 8 weeks ago, and started reading and reading it, then another and another etc.<br /><br />The upshot now, is that because I am at a sort of crossroads in my life, I have a deep feeling that selling up and embracing the lifestyle of living aboard a boat would be a kind of perfect way to end one, not so happy chapter in my life, and start another completely new one.<br /><br />So thats my story, at this point in time. It will take a while of course to get there, but the seeds of the idea have been sown.<br /><br />Regards<br />PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109183493763320024.post-9243085941764323572011-05-02T11:19:07.248-07:002011-05-02T11:19:07.248-07:00This feels like being invited to a big and wonderf...This feels like being invited to a big and wonderful family!!!<br />What a great feeling! <br /><br />I managed to get my picture into the program, if not here, then you can find me in the followers. <br />Thank you all!!!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281372868768938008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109183493763320024.post-72208326264969273202011-05-02T11:13:27.395-07:002011-05-02T11:13:27.395-07:00Thanks Guys for making Christine so welcome to &qu...Thanks Guys for making Christine so welcome to " Boaty Blog World"! <br /><br />Jaqueline, thank you for your lovely comment about my writing, I said much the same to Christine about your blog!<br /><br />Christine, welcome to the new chapter of your life xDebbienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109183493763320024.post-12301818997616877592011-05-02T10:48:59.493-07:002011-05-02T10:48:59.493-07:00Thank you, Jaqueline!

Please visit my blog at http://truelovefloats.blogspot.com<br />where I share my story of falling head over heels in love with narrow boats and English canals. I too wanted to know if a single woman could live life alone and afloat. Another blog to follow is Cesca. There is a link to her blog on Debbie's site. She is a single boater too. (and I agree with you--Debbie's blog is wonderful and her writing is gorgeous.)Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00291147592806356951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109183493763320024.post-43548627264355593822011-05-02T05:24:12.610-07:002011-05-02T05:24:12.610-07:00Thank you all for your lovely comments, it`s so go...Thank you all for your lovely comments, it`s so good to read that there are other ones out there who have the same dream - I hope they will all come true! I`m looking forward to reading your blogs. <br /><br />Thanks again Debbie!!! Unfortunately I`ve read all of your blog, I hope you will write some more soon, you are a poet.
