This year I've gone back to people on the canal; so there's incidents from daily life and history, like the workboats - here's John Knill in 1950, delivering a cargo to Newbury; and Ishtar, keeping boaters supplied with coal last winter; and the CRT paddle boat, dashing off to clear vegetation in the Long Pound. And a couple of cross-section pictures, which are always a fun look at boatlife on the inside. A few anthropomorphic rats have sneaked in, too. What else? Crofton pumping station, the Aldermaston tea shop, Tyle Mill and the Mikron Theatre boat...
You can get one from my Etsy shop, or Devizes Books; or directly from me if you can find my boat, which will be easy at the end of this month because there's the big floating Christmas fair in Bradford on Avon, on 30 Nov-1 Dec.
