It's a fascinating way of life. It's not normal for people to have to carry water when living on the network. It's just that when I'm alone, I do not drive the boat (because I can't, and also, I need to stay at the secured spot)... so, to take the stress away, I can top up the water tank until hubby is back.
This way, as he arrives, he can continue on our journey, instead of having to turn the boat around, or stress to make the journey to the next water point.

The water point where I filled my bottles is only about 10 minutes away from my boat, because boaters are not allowed to moor closer for more than 2 days.

They have systems in place for everything:)))
