    ► FAQ
    Q• Why are you uploading cruising videos and renovation videos at the same time.
    A• As of October 2021 we have finished our journey to visit every waterway on the connected system but we still have a back lock of videos to edit. For this reason we are uploading a cruising video each week till we finish the journey. In November 2021 we started a project to renovate our Narrowboat and as there was a lot of interest in is filming this we decided to alternate the renovations with the old cruising videos. We also aim to get one renovation video up each week until the cruising videos are finished.
    Q• Why do you speed up some of the footage in your videos?
    A• We don't, we film it as time-lapse footage. We do not have the battery capacity or data storage to film in real time as our cruises can last up to 7 or 8 hours. We use to the time-lapse footage to help tell the story of movement rather than showcase the scenery. We limit the amount of time-lapse shots we use in each vlog.
    Q• Why are your video's so behind?
    A• We would love to release all our video's in the same week that we film them but that isn't possible for us. Jo only really has the capacity to edit two video's per week and as we make a video for each cruise that we do and we some times cruise 3 or 4 or 5 times a week we inevitably get behind. We fit in the vlogs around our lives not the other way round.

    Hi Jo , Michael and George, nice to see three of you again. I haven't been checking out alot vlogs since my husband died in October 2021. He loved his narrowboat channels . I feel I'm able to start watching them again. You both look well and George has grown so much. Michael how did you loose so much weight? Looking good. From Susan in Crewe, Cheshire previously from Euxton, Chorley Lancashire. ❤️💙🐾

    • @MinimalList
      @MinimalList  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry for that loss, but glad you’re back to watching narrowboats puttering about once more. I lost the weight the old fashioned way… I’ve been very hungry for about two years now. Might make a video explaining sometime soon. M

    "Good morning, and all that business". That was hysterical. My wife HATES IT when I do EXACTLY what she said, and not what I clearly knew she meant. She hates it more that I laugh myself silly afterwards. Keep up the good work Michael.

    I have been away and not watching your videos for quite a while. But I am back.
    WOW Michael!!! Where did the rest of you disappear to?? My guess is that you have dropped at least 100 pounds and in not that long a time. I hope this is a very healthy story and not a tale of deep whoa and intrigue and misery..... It may be time to do a special video on just why and how you have done this. AMAZING. We love the three of you--not just narrowboating. I am proud of you, and I CRAVE your secret to success.

    By the way, re: George and the stinging nettles. I'm not sure that stinging nettles affect dogs like they affect humans. They certainly don't seem to bother our two dogs.

      All that fur they’ve got does an excellent job keeping the nettles from stinging… hence why I wish I was a wee bit hairier around the gams. M
