Here she is.......just bought IRIS the narrowboat, or 'IRIS No. 3' as she'll be known on the Thames.

My friend Mat and I need to move her from Uxbridge in West London, down the Grand Union Canal and onto the Thames. We then need to make the journey upstream to Reading, a total trip of about 72 miles.

Could quite possibly be a 'leave as boys, arrive as men' type experience.
