Halfie: What's this? Another Granny Buttons?

Wednesday, 5 June 2013

Spotted on the Grand Union in the Ivinghoe Locks area last week, nb Albert Henry.

Nothing unusual about that, you might think. But what's this painted on the forward part of the boat?

Granny Buttons!

Does Andrew Denny know about this?

Sue said...: Yep I know, but usually artwork is done on both sides. We need a spotter further along the canal don't you think?!! :-); 5 June 2013 at 23:18
