ICE-O-Lation

The Ballad of Anderton Marina

We're as drunk as a skunk in a moat, its nice
We're as drunk as skunk in our boat, trapped in ice.
She's been working on her accent, its posh and so fine,
before we known it, with Harry she'll dine...
Beneath the ice, it was eels we sought,
a zing zing boom and out they shot...
We call this our mole hole, because its so dark
then we open the blinds, to shout, HELLO OH HARK!
To our neighbors we smile, and spread our good cheer
and then we walk home and drink our 10 beers.
They may think we're crazy, as we're rocking the boat
and breaking in the ice, in our natural formed moat
Tomorrow, oh dears, we climb the rail for Bath,
cutting our boat trip so short...  but oh, must we hath!
Being stuck in the ice, was fun for a while,
But eventually we found, it took a bottle to smile.
And so we set forth on a new escapade
to Bath then to London, we make our parade.

What grand lyrics your adventures do create.
Enjoy the rest of your journey my lady mates.

Just a teeny bit cold over there, huh? Sad you have to cut your boat adventure short, but hope you find other grand things to see!

(lovely ballad btw)

Smart move. We were hoping you would save the boat for another time. Hostels are not nearly so cold as steel boats.
"Keep Calm and Carry on"
Love, Jacqui and Mike

Stuck in the ice is tragic. But think of the lovley song... without the ice you never would have made it.

Enjoy Bath and London lovelies!
