A day in the life of Bev, a skipper in glasgow
I'll get up at...

And then I...
Will work on a funding application for a project to take people with dementia out on the canal.
My day will consist of...
Draining the water from the barge's diesel tanks; this has to be done every spring. Having lunch with our grandchildren that my partner looks after, planning the litterpick & bbq at Bowling Beach this saturday.
I'll look after...
My tiny dachshund Richie - he'll need a walk, and I'll help with the grandchildren in the afternoon.
Other things I'll do in the day are...
A cryptic crossword, maybe; some writing, definitely. It's the Bank Street Writers gathering tonight.
I'll go to bed after...
