2026 Edition

Over the years, hundreds of happy readers have received this free e-book, simply by subscribing to the NarrowboatWife newsletter, but I thought it was time to update the book for the 21st century. So, to be first to hear about the new, updated edition, please subscribe to my new Substack: Peggy the Narrowboat Wife. (For anyone new to Substack, it's kinda part blog, part newsletter, part social media tool.)

I'm always writing articles around the web about canals and rivers, community boating, and living on a narrowboat. I'd love to keep in touch with you through Substack. Are you coming over? Click here! and I'll stick another log on the fire, and put the kettle on.
