We were set to pass a steel narrowboat when it slowly backed directly across our path. At 2 miles per hour, that's enough time to walk through the boat to the bow and push off. "Sorry, sorry!" they said. I said, "No worries; it's just boating. Everybody knows backing up is hard to do." Like that 1960s Neil Sedaka song: 🎵 Don't take your boat 🎶 away from me 🎵 'Cause backing up 🎶 is hard to do (I'm quite sure those are the lyrics.) #CanalLife #canal #boating #narrowboat #boat #reverse #BackUp
