We're on the piss!

But without the alcohol.
We had trouble mooring and knew the back end was aground but needs must.
As the rain has continued the sluices have been opened.
This means the canal level has dropped and the boat has a very obvious list to port.
Some of the cupboard doors are hanging open unless the catches are on. It also means I'm staggering a bit trying to keep my balance.
If the levels rise we can float off, if not we will try to pole off, if that fails we will hope for a tow from a passing boater.
