    I just want all three of you to know that I quietly watch your videos here in Buenos Aires and for me they are a wonderful escape and breath of fresh air. I don't normally comment, but I'd like to say thanks for the wonderful videos and wish you all the best from Buenos Aires!🤗

    I stumbled across your videos and have been hooked . Over here in the northwest US we have nothing like that . Your well edited videos along with tasteful music and a good sense of humor make watching them very relaxing . I also have learned a lot about canals and narrow boats along with a touch of history . Thank you gents for all the work you put in .

    Did you notice the house on the left after lock 21 with the curved barrel roof. There’s another at Lowsonford. There are several of these along this stretch of the Stratford on Avon Canal. It is said that they were built for canal workers, re-using the timber centring (supports like shuttering for concrete) used to support the brick arches of the bridges during construction. A bit of 18th/19th century recycling perhaps.

    THERE'S the Muttley laugh, at 17:14, but there is smoke involved. :-) A Q for a future Q&A: Do you ever worry that canal you-tubers will cause their own problems by bringing more doofuses to the canals, especially with future lock-downs? Have you thought about making a "Getting started with a canal boat" series that might focus on etiquette particular to specific places? Maybe short-attention span things, 10 mins or so, focused. Like talking to others who are moored around particular locks to arrange going together, the importance of going slowly through particular stretches, or tipping volunteers with a cup of coffee or what. You both seem very sensitive to others' needs, and you'd be the perfect ones to have that kind of series. Thanks for all!

    I noticed some cut logs beside the canal at 2.30, are you allowed to take them for the fire ? Also it might be a silly question, but why are the locks so close together

    • @FoxesAfloat
      @FoxesAfloat  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Yeah, most of the time you can take the logs (Unless it's on private land). The locks are close together to make them easier to work. The person doing them can walk from lock to lock.

    Port side, hurmf, port is always on the left side of the pointy end of the boat, when looking towards the pointy bit from the blunt end or stern. This is irrespective whether you looking forward or backwards. So the Christmas tree factory was on your starboard side. Just saying, use it, or dont use it.

      You are correct - the trees were on their starboard side - but as Colin said "Your port", so he was correct, as the trees were indeed on the left/port/red light side of our screens.
