Barging On

Barging On

Barging On is the continuing story of Peter and Meg’s exploits on a barge called Colibri. The book, On Wet Foundations, tells the tale of how and why they bought a disused commercial barge in Holland, began converting a cargo hold in Belgium and went on to discover a cruising lifestyle in France. Wanting to continue their live-aboard life, they now have to work out how they can stay afloat financially. <br /> <br />Sharing their love of the French waterways is one way to go about it, but they have to finish converting their barge before that can happen. This takes a while, though, because they can’t resist exploring more of France first. And, of course, they have to allow time for some fun in winter too, don’t they? <br /> <br />The conversion of Colibri is completed eventually, but not before some things that weren’t supposed to happen have to be dealt with. <br />
