Last summer, I decided to live my best slow-life fantasy and rented a canal boat for a “relaxing weekend getaway.” Cut to me reversing into a duck (who was absolutely unbothered), getting tangled in a rope I swear was plotting against me, and waving confidently at tourists while absolutely not knowing how to park.
But somewhere between narrowly missing a lock gate and accidentally flashing a fisherman (long story), I discovered the true magic of canal boat puns. Because if you are going to drift aimlessly down a canal, you might as well do it with humor; and a really solid snack stash.
