Benevolence is a model narrowboat


Yes, it wasn't hard to see from yesterday's photo that Benevolence is indeed a model narrowboat. In this wider shot the cargo of stone is visible. Steve Parkin in his Narrow Boat Albert blog gives the extra information that the boat belongs to James Griffin of Wyvern Shipping.


Now, I don't know if this is Mr. Griffin. He doesn't seem to be watching where Benevolence is going, but there were more model boats zipping around in front of The Boat Inn pub at Stoke Bruerne.

Not these, though. Victoria and another boat emerge from the top lock, both very much full size.


Well, that might be all from Stoke Bruerne, but there's plenty of material left from our two recent trips. Including more timelapse footage of our BCN expedition, when I get around to uploading it. Watch this space!
