Oh my god, "loads of seaman"... I'm glad I wasn't the only one that was crying from laughter 🤣. That was epic. The scenery was absolutely gorgeous and the history narrative spot on. Thanks again for having me in your world, it was just what I needed this morning! Have an excellent week ✌🏻💖😎
My God you make me smile, I don't understand how anyone can give you a thumbs down, why bother watching the vlog if you don't like it. I adore you and I envy your lifestyle. Lots of love from Sweden 🇸🇪.
I wondered how many takes "boat full of seamen" would take 🤣 Stunning views and thanks for the in depth story of the embankment, I love hearing about the engineering that goes into these jobs. Good to see you both laughing!
Oh my God, outtake of the year, I haven't laughed and had the tears rolling down my cheeks, just below my eyes ! for a long time. what joy you bring, and wonderful filming, to so many, me included. oh joy. guy
7:25 I could tell by Shaun's face that that comment was going to end up in the outtakes. Wifey didn't understand why. But what a reward!? Shaun's laugh could be used for the "laughing policeman"!
Hi guys, the big shaft is the site of the collapse of the tunnel in the 80's, a guy saw it cracking reversed out dropped his family then raced back through before it collapsed, one of my first canal site jobs was moving the clay from the repair from Railtrack land to the old clay pit over the tunnel. Relined Barnton Tunnel back in the day, night shift spent at the bottom of the shafts cos you could pick up radio Luxembourg, eke them were the days
One of the best guys, I could see from Shaun’s face that you’d had some trouble with the river Weaver seamen! Outtakes were hilarious, you have to go back to Laurel and Hardy for such infectious laughter.
Hi 👋 from Tennessee USA 🇺🇸. Looks like you two have beautiful weather to do your travels. Glad they were able to fix all the damage of the canal. Really enjoyed the video. I hope you two have a fantastic weekend and be safe.
Colin, what I enjoy so much in your narration is the teaching you do--informing everyone about the history of the specific region you are in. I know, from some segments, that you are very hard on yourself about slips ups--everyone does that. I am really excited by the new build. Love you guys. This lady completely understands about traffic reappearing and disliking it.
Hi, guys! That Shaun has a wicked laugh! Love it, and Colin knows just how to set him off! That’s why you’ve been soulmates for years - you have to enjoy laughter together! My daughter was helping me divide my hosta perennials at my Foxes viewing time today, so I rewarded myself after the hard work with you two, and Otis! Thanks for the sunny vlog!
These outtakes are priceless. In these difficult times your laughter is just what we need. I don't know what I found funnier. A boat full of seamen or the thought of Colin getting stuck on seamen. It is a good job we have all got clean minds!
If I am having a bad day I just find this vlog and go straight to the outakes. Shaun's laugh should be bottled it makes everything better - thanks guys.
Lots of seamen going and down the canal...I just knew that was was going to be in the outtakes...watching Shauns face trying to hold it together...oh brilliant vlog ...sorry guys didn't pay to much attention to history part laughter got the better of me ..have a good week guys and Ottis....🤣🤣
One of your most entertaining videos! I was laughing almost immediately with "reciprocal" and then the kettle and the lovely shots of everything. Absolutely wonderful! I so enjoy the both of you (and your work = such lovely, lovely videos and you are both so humorous). I continue to be a big fan of you both - Lucy
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 I wondered how you got through that sentence and in the out takes I see you didn't 🤣😂🤣😂 love to you both woof to Otis. Take care and stay safe.♥️♥️
The outtake with Shaun laughing is the perfect antidote to anyone having a bad day. I challenge anyone not to end up laughing along with him. Thank you for the best channel on TH-cam
I just cant believe what a professional job you do and the BBC hasn't picked you up....every vlog better than the last. Color me impressed...love you both **** and Otis too XOXOX
Waited a whole week to see you both and Otis - gosh we need MORE! You give us great beauty, knowledge, and lots of laughs with the seamen (spelled this way on purpose !! ) as well. Hoping you take the “boat elevator” to the river next week as that looks crazy cool!! Thanks so much for sharing your lives, love and journey with us - you’re the friends we’ve not yet met! 💕
So happy you guys passed 100k! "Loads of seamen on it"....lol - Shaun trying DESPERATELY not to smile! @7:20ish - and your PRODUCTION values have soared so much!!!
Shaun - I just loved your sly smile when Colin said "full of seamen". Colin - I'm glad I wasn't taking a sip of my coffee when you said "coat hanger". I would have had to clean my laptop screen! Your outtakes are glorious and delightful as always. Thank you gents!
If anyone says anything about seamen from now on, I'll be finished! I hurt from laughing now and the out takes really finished me off! Wonderful, the highlight of my week! X
Always enjoy your vlogs! It was nice of you to help out Mark and Deb on well deck diaries. They are such a nice couple and I love to watch their vlog too.
I remember that canal collapse.......hello lovely fellas, by the way - you’re both looking lovely, and Otis full of bounce.....🐶❤️ ..... it’s really good to see the repairs that have been done. Jam butty mines 😁 we have Talskiddy Treacle mine here in Cornwalll......honest! 😁 it seems very much against the spirit of Narrowboating that a water point should be padlocked off like that......unless of course the water from it is contaminated in some way. Wet wipe showers all round then. ...brings back memories of camping in the middle of nowhere! Oh my life, I’m still getting my head around aqueducts and you chuck in a boat lift........whaaat?? Have a great week lovely fellas....love the laughter! 😘😘😘😘
Thanks I needed a grin But mainly I love seeing Otis, especially today. You see, my dog passed away this morning. It was time, she had a good life but cancer came and took her. So you see, I'm pretty messed up right now. I know you two know what I'm feeling Go now and give Otis a big hug Thanks, just needed to tell someone Mike.
At 7:24 it was one of the best moments yet. I straight away thought - there will be outtakes! Brilliant stuff, thank you guys. My week is not complete without you, I wish I had patron money
you guys are so full of happiness and joy. Shaun has the most sincere and infectious laugh ever. and you Colin, with your amazing insights into the histories of the British rivers and canals are sublime. i hope you get this message as i'm writing this 31/12/21 Happy new year to you both and Otis. let's hope 2022 brings you lot's of happiness, good health and endless giggles along the way. thank you for entertaining me over the year and i look forward to seeing more of your loveliness next year xXx love Chris
Just started watching Britain by Narrowboat, and absolutely loved it! Colin and Shaun you are awesome. Watching vlogs on TH-cam now, cause I can't get enough! Bless!
Well on a wet Saturday morning I’ve loved this vlog but your outtakes really cheered me the F up.... woke up a right miserable Yorkshire man this morning and you guys cured me 😃
Oh thank God for fridays. You 2 guys deserve all the best for letting us into your world. I used to live in Rudheath Northwich and can relate to your route on the canal & the boat lift. Fridays just wouldn't be the same without you guys. Robert from Manchester
OMG you two had me crying with laughter . I did feel a bit silly because every time you went into one of those tunnels I found myself ducking my head . Thank you guys and have a great week x
Shaun only just got through the seamen section. bless him.
😂😂😂
Was just about to say.... Great job on the tongue biting Shaun. How many takes was that? 😂
He can’t stop 🛑 laughing and that pleases Colin. 😹
Colin:
"I keep getting stuck on that bit", Shaun: "I'm not surprised" 🤣😆 priceless 🤣😂
@@carolehayden8566 ...
and us lot 🤣
Is there anything better than Shaun laughing uncontrollably? I am still wiping my eyes! Love to you both!♡♡
I'm still laughing 🤣
Oh my god, "loads of seaman"... I'm glad I wasn't the only one that was crying from laughter 🤣. That was epic.
The scenery was absolutely gorgeous and the history narrative spot on.
Thanks again for having me in your world, it was just what I needed this morning!
Have an excellent week ✌🏻💖😎
Glad you enjoyed it
It was Sean's smirk that set me off. Honesty guys every week there is something to laugh at.
And I am just now watching the out takes, tears guys tears.....
@@Sammo-w2y I'd love to see a compilation of just outtakes, that would be hilarious 😊
I have learnt not to drink and watch these guys at the same time. I'm either going to choke or spray it out laughing.
My God you make me smile, I don't understand how anyone can give you a thumbs down, why bother watching the vlog if you don't like it. I adore you and I envy your lifestyle. Lots of love from Sweden 🇸🇪.
😊 thank you
They are not people they are robots. It's so you don't get a big head
Well done Shaun for keeping a straight face with all the sea men traveling up the canal
🤣
I really should wait for the outtakes before I comment again 🤣🤣🤣
I to saw the slightest of smiles begin. Annnnddddd then the outtakes.
Oh, man!…..Seans laugh in the outtakes is hilarious! I made it into a ringtone.
🤣
I LIVE for Sean's laugh❗❗❗ I knew that "sea man" 😂🤣😂🤣😂 wording couldn't just pass. Thank you for making my day even better than it already was.
Glad you enjoyed it
I wondered how many takes "boat full of seamen" would take 🤣
Stunning views and thanks for the in depth story of the embankment, I love hearing about the engineering that goes into these jobs. Good to see you both laughing!
Our pleasure!
Oh my God, outtake of the year, I haven't laughed and had the tears rolling down my cheeks, just below my eyes ! for a long time. what joy you bring, and wonderful filming, to so many, me included. oh joy. guy
Cheers Guy 👍🏻
I’m guessing about 20 minutes of uncontrollable giggling, even the one that made it in was close to Shaun loosing it. Lovely Friday vlog. brilliant.
Thanks Nigel!
Two big kids having a great laugh. Loved it.
Never grow up! 👍🏻
The giggles hit and off they go! Love it lads and thanks for the trip today.
Our pleasure!
Fab video!! ❤️ Collin could become a history teacher 😅😅😅
Haha! Maybe!
100%. Colin and Martin Zero as history teachers with Techmoan from TH-cam doing science and ViHart doing maths. A TH-cam school....
7:25 I could tell by Shaun's face that that comment was going to end up in the outtakes. Wifey didn't understand why. But what a reward!? Shaun's laugh could be used for the "laughing policeman"!
🤣🤣🤣
I didn't think it was possible but your vlogs get better and better. Keep up the good work. We love it when you get the giggles xx
Thank you so much!!
I’m supposed to be listening to a work conference call, but instead, I laughing along with you on your outtakes...😝
🤣🤣🤣
I LOVE Sean’s laugh. It’s so contagious. ❤️❤️❤️
🤣🤣🤣
What a wonderful life you guys have created for each other
Thank you! x
Nothing better than some history , good views, good humour , Otis and ofcourse you two. Have a good weekend.
Thanks, you too!
After a tough week watching your vlog has cheered me up. Had a good laugh at the outtakes . You both are great.
Awesome! Thank you!

This channel is helping me get through some dark days.
Glad we can help, Mark ❤️❤️

You two are so silly, you got me giggling. I love the shots looking up at the sky through the trees as you cruise under them.
Yeah, so relaxing 💜
Laughter is always the best medicine
100%
Your giggle fest had us in tears as well! Love you gents and Ottis of course.
You're the best!
I've had a knackering day at work and your seamen giggling has cheered me up no end. 😂❤️
I'm so glad!

Shauns face when you said seamen. That’s some brilliant control.
Hardly control when. you watch the outtakes 🤣🤣🤣
It was the words you used with it..."coastal boats full of seamen"...imaging filling that boat with it's cargo. ☺
Thank you for the laughs. You had me in tears laughing so hard. Have a wonderful week.
You too!
THANK YOU for the laughter. Made my day
Glad you enjoyed it
I love the laughter!! I laugh right along.
🤣🤣🤣
Excellent video. Glad to see you two in better spirits, better with the restrictions being lifted and bright sunny days.
Yes! Thank you!
16:10 so, so funny! Gonna put that on a loop for a day when some sunshine is needed! GG guys!
🤣🤣🤣
Just in time! A fine dose of Shaun's laughter is the best medicine. Sorry Colin, your laughter/frustration helps too.
Glad you enjoyed it
The laughing outtake is brilliant, had me laughing too. Love you guys, thanks x
Glad you enjoyed it
Just finished watching vlog 152. You guys slay me. You do your share of laughing especially at the end (out takes). Love you. Be safe.
Thanks so much!!
this has to be one of your best vlogs yet
Thanks, Nathan!
@@FoxesAfloat iv watched documentaries that werent aswell laid out as your vlog
These outtakes are priceless. In these difficult times your laughter is just what we need. I don't know what I found funnier. A boat full of seamen or the thought of Colin getting stuck on seamen. It is a good job we have all got clean minds!
Shaun's mind is far from clean 🤣🤣🤣
Shaun, you have a great infectious laugh, still grinning now. You both bring joy to so many 🙂
Thanks so much
Wicked. Brilliant. Otis running along tow path is a source of joy. Choked on me lunch starting at 16:30 or so. 🇨🇦
🤣🤣🤣
In the final edit I remember thinking, "How did they get past the river full of sea men," without cracking up. Thanks for the outtakes, always a hoot.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You guys are like fred dibnah guide to canals turning something that would might be boring but you make interesting and funny in places!!
Aw, thanks!
Exactly why I tune in every week 👍🏼
Otis is living the dream literally 😎
He is!
Ready and watching with a brew... relax on a Friday. Thanks guys. 😊
Enjoy!
@@FoxesAfloat, yep great drone footage... lovely 😍
Thanks for my weekly fix guys. I want to find the jam butty mines too.
Another gem from the first lords of the waterways loving your work lads
Glad you enjoyed it

Brilliant as ever! needed a laugh, received with thanks! Great bonus Otis footage as well, the weekend has officially started!
Glad you enjoyed it
@@FoxesAfloat Ah! I was the first today, I am not getting notifications of the advanced screenings for members, strange! but typical TH-cam.
I've got into the habit of giving you a thumbs up before I even watch the show, just in case I forget. Otis is looking very content with his life.
Otis is loving boat life xx

Very interesting, I didn’t realise canals could just disappear. I thought Colin did a great job keeping a straight face...until the outtakes. 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the laughs. We all need some of that these days. From Alberta.
Thank you! x
You guys are so funny, im in stitches.

Thank you, Eric xx
Shaun’s laugh is everything!!!!!! 🤣
Quality vlog as always, radios loss is very much our gain 👍 we had a share in a narrowboat based at sandbach so brought back lots of memories.
Thanks for sharing
What a giggle Seamen Shauns face was brill. Will look out for you at Crick show x
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
A big “Well Done” to Shaun for managing to get through one ‘Sea men’ take with only a hint of a reaction! I think you deserve an award for that! 🏆🥇
You didn’t watch the whole vlog, did you?
@@FoxesAfloat...oh, I did! Notice I said ‘Through ONE’! 🤣🤣🤣
Shaun - I just loved your sly smile when Colin said "full of seamen".
Colin - I'm glad I wasn't taking a sip of my coffee when you said "coat hanger". I would have had to clean my laptop screen!
Your outtakes are glorious and delightful as always. Thank you gents!
Glad you enjoyed it
Shaun's laugh at the end set me off too. Your videos are always a Friday highlight.
🤣🤣
7:20 Confirmed that shaun certainly has a naughty mind 🤣🤣 love it!
🤣👍🏻
I knew that I would find MANY cuts in the Outtakes on this topic. HaHaHa!!
Shaun laughter always brightens our days!
Laughter is good for the soul xxx
So many seaman jokes, so little time!!! Keep up the fun times! And the great history stories!
Always! 🤣
If anyone says anything about seamen from now on, I'll be finished! I hurt from laughing now and the out takes really finished me off! Wonderful, the highlight of my week! X
Glad we could make you laugh, Jackie xxx
Love watching your vlogs,such beautiful scenery, and you and Shaun's giggles and inuendoes had me laughing too.
Glad you enjoyed it

Just looking at Otis on your Calendar, and how much he has grown. Thank you and take care.
He has! Almost fully grown now.
Anonother feast of history and beautiful views and double entendres "coastal boats full of seamen..." that's made my week.

Thanks I needed a grin
But mainly I love seeing Otis, especially today. You see, my dog passed away this morning. It was time, she had a good life but cancer came and took her. So you see, I'm pretty messed up right now. I know you two know what I'm feeling
Go now and give Otis a big hug
Thanks, just needed to tell someone
Mike.
I'm so sorry Mike. We know how that feels after losing Dillon (and other dogs). 💜
@@FoxesAfloat thanks
Another great one. Really appreciate the way you teach and make it fun at the same time!
Glad you enjoy it!
You could see at 7:26 Shaun was just about holding it together - the outtakes proved that! hahaha
Another great vlog lads, well done
Legend!
Great vlog. Have to say the best Outtakes ever. My wife and I had tears in our eyes.
As a career US Navy Seaman...I, too, was in tears!
Glad you enjoyed it
Oh my gosh...I should have waited for the outtakes!! Hysterical - y'all could NOT keep it together on seaman on the river...too funny!
🤣
At 7:24 it was one of the best moments yet. I straight away thought - there will be outtakes! Brilliant stuff, thank you guys. My week is not complete without you, I wish I had patron money

Aww, thanks so much! x
Well done for keeping a straight face at the mention of boats full of seamen Shaun....... ❤🤣🤣🤣🤣 👏👏👏💪
You didn't watch till the end?
I wish we could get two videos a week. I really enjoy your videos. Hope y'all are having a wonderful Spring.
Thank you! You too!
"You must have been gargling your bong water" just became one of my favourite insults 😊
🤣
Between Sean's laughter and the snorts during the outtakes, I'm wiping away tears. Thanks both of you for the laughs!
Any time!
Just started watching Britain by Narrowboat, and absolutely loved it! Colin and Shaun you are awesome.
Watching vlogs on TH-cam now, cause I can't get enough!
Bless!
Awesome! Thank you!
