Touch and tell is our Narrowboat named after the motto of Hearing Dogs for Deaf People "Hearing Dogs Touch and Tell". On this part of our website we would like to bring you a flavour of our experiences on the British canal system through extracts from our log book. ..Please be patient and keep coming back as we will be adding new pages from time to time both to cover our experiences to date and to add stories of our new adventures. . The stories are illustrated by pictures, when we have them and for those who wish to view them. . As some of the text files are quite long I have not include the pictures on the pages. . The photographs are all available via hyperlinks, single photos using a camera icon multiples as a page of thumbnails. . The logo above also links to a picture of the boat. . Some pages can now be downloaded as a zip file including the pictures for off line viewing - see the included read me file.
