When you up anchoring?
I usually move every 2 weeks sometimes sooner Ross! I’m working on the next vlog now, but have been a bit busy on other things so it should not be long now until I post another TH-cam vid.
👍👍Looking forward to the next cruise!@@NarrowboatCruisingLifestyle
Hello me ol cocka. Looking forward to your next vlog. I'm looking at buying a narrow boat myself. She's a 57 foot traditional boat with a Lister HR3 engine, with a Lister Blackstone mechanical gearbox. At 64 grand, she's not cheap, but a real beauty. Anyway, happy new year to you.
Sounds good Joyce. I wish you all the luck and happiness with your new boat. And all the best for the New Year.
just say to the idiots Jesus loves you for what you are
The bloke complaining about the length of time you've been mored up reminds me of the people that move in to a quant old village with a historic church and patition to stop the bells.the flats in your opening remarks look much newer then the canal.😢
Some people are just nasty B’sss haha!
Boring as fuk
Lockdown was bull.
Yes it was!
The main problem with stupid people is that they don’t know they are stupid. In fact they think they are very clever and that their views are right. They fail at every level of intelligence, understanding, self-awareness, communication etc etc…😂 Any attempt to education them is rather pointless as they are usually unable to learn. But good luck!
Nice to re watch this one.. I walk passed Roydon Lock most days with Rex. Me & Allen did some fishing near that Hunsdon Mill House. Wish you was still here, I bet this feels like ages ago now. xxx
That was probably four years ago now. I quite liked it there but the weather was crap if I remember rightly xxx
Love going through your older videos. You've travelled quite far now Dad. I loved visiting Stoke Buerne on my travels. Beautiful. xxx
You must be a bit bored going through the old ones haha! Xxx
Excellent video Dad, really enjoyed it! Tom O Wood looks like a beautiful place, that building was stunning. I’d love to be moored up by them pretty hills… What a view! Love how excited you sound about the wood and wartaaa haha! Ashby looks like he’s taking it all in. New adventures now Dad, Good luck to you xxxx
Glad you liked it Clare. Tom o the wood is a pretty little place. Waltaah haha! What am I like. New adventures on the Stratford coming up. See you soon love dad xxx
This makes me laugh every time I watch it… Go on Ashby Haha!
He’s got plenty of guts haha! X
Lovely video! It took me awhile to watch over the Christmas period. Hope you and Ash had a good one! Wasn't that medieval house something else!! I love finding those little treasures. When you think of all a house like that has seen in it's lifetime. So many changes. I hope that problem you were having with the algorithm is sorted out? Looking forward to you next video and wish you and yours a very Happy New Year!!
Thank you. Yes I love finding little gems like that old house. And I think the same as you about all the things that it would have seen. Hope the New Year is a good one for you. All the best Vince and Ashby.
Love Tring.
So do I Simon!
Thanks again, Vince. I enjoy all your videos. Have a happy Christmas and all the best for the year ahead. I look forward to sharing more of your adventures :)
Cheers Andrew. Merry Christmas to you and your family. And I hope to see you on the next one!
Hope you and Ashby have a fab christmas. From Jess & Mike
The same to you and your family Jess & Mike. Love Vince & Ashby!
Nice one Vince.. Thanks! have a happy Christmas!
Cheers Jeff. And the same to you and your family mate.
I lived on a boat for years..endured it more than enjoyed it!
It can be a bit of a slog sometimes.
Happy Christmas to you Vince - and the Crew!
Thanks Ross and the same to you and your family mate.
Hello Vince and welcome back, and let me start by saying narrow boats are not the peasants of the waterways. On the contrary they are the kings, made of steel and built to last, unlike what we called the Tupperware Taskforce of the fiberglass hulled variety. People who narrow boat all year round are also true boaters, not like those fair weather boaters. I must admit I never made it to the Stratford Canal, it indeed does look very pretty. Anyway Vince I wish you and your family a very happy Christmas and I'm looking forward to the rest of your trip on the Stratford. Cheers mate, Kevin.🎄
Hello Kevin. Thanks for sticking up for us live aboard narrowboaters haha! And the same to you and your family mate. See you on the next one.
Hooray!!!! another great episode
Thank you haha!
Merry Christmas Vince and I look forward to your adventures on the Stratford Canal in the New Year!
Cheers Paul. And the same to you and your family. I will try and get another one out between Christmas and the New Year.
Good to catch up with you and Ashby exploring the network. Nice part of the world . All the best Vince for 2025. Rob
Thanks Rob! Yes, it is lovely around here. Hope you and the family have a good Christmas.
You've done well to collect all your firewood. Hopefully it's enough keep you warm over the festive period and beyond. I only manage to collect scraps and wood burns so fast on my stove, I have to use coal to keep it going.
I’ve been lucky with the collection of wood. I just manage to get enough when I need it Timothy. I will probably come unstuck, so since the video I bought 1 bag of coal as an insurance. Have a good Christmas Vin and Ash.
Great to see you out and about have a good Christmas, Christine, Peter and Welford the Whippet.
Look after yourselves, and we wish you all a merry Christmas Vin and Ash.
Sorry for not holding brolly for you but Ashby needed attention 😂😂. Lovely little cruise Vince, beautiful countryside. What's with people mooring on water points? Tut tut!! 😊 Just in case we don't see you again before Christmas, merry Christmas and a very Happy New year to you and your family Vince. And of course Ashby ❤.
Typical, Ashby always gets the attention haha! Glad you enjoyed the vid Kath. And I wish you and your family a very happy Christmas. Look after yourself Vin & Ash x
Cracking vlog as usual pal. Merry Christmas to you and Ashby, all the very best. Andy, Lesley, Jax & Berra.
Cheers Andy & Lesley. Nice to hear from you again. Hope you are both doing well. And a Merry Christmas to you all Vince & Ashby
A very good vlog and sceneries and village all the bet for now😊
I’m glad that you think so Suzanne. Have a good Christmas! Vince & Ashby
Nice one again Vince, calm and relaxed.
Cheers Mike. I’m glad you found it so. Have a nice Christmas!
@@NarrowboatCruisingLifestyle You too mate, and Ashby.
Hi Vince I don’t know if it’s possible but if it is you should add Apple Pay to your buy me a coffee cause I tried to buy a coffee but the only way I do stuff online is with Apple Pay and it won’t let me use Apple Pay and wants credit card or some kind of linkI don’t understand the link part but a credit card I understand I personally don’t have credit cards temptation to spend too much you know.
Thanks for trying Clint. No I’ve got no control over what buy me a coffee do. I don’t like credit cards either mate. Merry Christmas!
Happy Christmas Vince and Ashby and to all your family too . Loved the new video Julie and Alan 🌲🎁⛄ xxx
Cheers Julie & Alan. Hope you both have a wonderful Christmas x
Do you ever fish on the canals?
Very rarely Jack!
Another great vlog with lovely scenic views. Thanks for the invite to travel on the back with you and Ashby. Sorry about not holding the brolly in the tunnel for you. Maybe another time I hope you and Ashby enjoy a wonderful Christmas 🎄 looking forward to your next adventure. Bye for now.

Hi Vince. I Wish you and Ashby a happy Christmas and a good new year hope all is well and can not wait for next video from Brian w.germany
Cheers Brian. The same to you and your family. See you on the next one. Vince & Ashby
I had a look at the OS map and there doesn't seem to be a church anywhere near Tom O'the Wood, so that would make Turner's Green a hamlet rather than a village. The nearest church seems to be at Rowington.
That’s interesting danensis. I will have to get you onboard as a researcher haha!
