This brings back great memories. My husband and I and 2 other couple rented a narrow boat in Wales a few years ago and we had a really great time. The scenery was spectacular!

Thanks Tally,

Good to hear that you enjoy my blog. I too don't like the plastic binding machines - so this was a great find. Perhaps you could find somebody with more space and share the machine............

Thanks for all your detailed posts. Today I took a...

Thanks for all your detailed posts. Today I took a closer look (more time on hand since on sickleave).
Good inspiration, good explanation. Keep on blogging long posts!

And for the bind-it-all: My eye fell on it some months ago. At work I have access to the binding machine with plastic rings, but them I don't like. Too bad my little space is too crowded anyway, but as I know myself .....

Thanks Heather, Vivien, Gunnel and Claudia for looking in, I follow all of your blogs......

Narrowboating is so much fun, we hire one for a week every year, starting a new place each time.

The Bind-it-All, I really look forward to explore more, the idea that you can combine all sorts of paper..... or all those 'masterpieces' you have done already ;o)

Very good idea! I made a sketchbook that way, but ...

Very good idea! I made a sketchbook that way, but with plastic spirals...

Oh, the narrowboating looks like so much fun! In a week, we're doing a live-aboard while the children have school vacation. I just love being on the water.

The Zutter looks very cool, too; I'm going to check it out. The books look great.

I love my Bind-It-All, too! Your book is lovely.

My husband surprised me with a narrowboat trip from Oxford to Windsor in 2007. Being an American, I had no idea what a narrowboat was, but it was a wonderful way to spend a week. I would love to do it again!

Please go sketching Clare, this is exactly what my blog is about - to inspire - as I constantly am by other blogs, yours included.........

Thanks, you have made my day ;O)

WE are in the Midlands which is heart of narrowboating - there are so many canals here. You've inspired me to go and take a walk along there again this week and perhaps sketch!

Thank you both,

Carol, I might have seen the Bind-It-All on your blog as well.

Thanks for the question about narrow-boats. I suddenly realize that the term is not logic to everyone.

A narrow boat is between 45' to 70' long and 7' wide. Used to transport goods on the English canals and rivers in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries - first by horse-power, later by steam and then by fossil-fuel. As the landscape varies a lot in hight, there is a lot of locks. Now mostly used for leisure and/or houseboats.

I will post more on this subject.

I love the little books you've made! And what a great idea to photocopy the pages for the canal book.... I'll look forward to hearing about your holiday.

Is "narrow boating" the same thing as a kayak? My husband and I kayak. And I have/use /love my Bind It All. Must be why I love your blog!
