    Being Australian and loving Midnight Oil how lucky are you to have one of our iconic musicians on your boat so jealous.

    Such a great time you are having and getting to meet Peter, how cool is that! The "Oils" were just so big down this way and their music is amazing. Their lead, Peter Garrett, became a Member of our Federal Government, and even was a Government Minister for a time. Not bad for a great Band. Love their music and seeing Peter Gifford again brought it all back for me. Magic!

    Everyweek my partner and I watch your vlogs and love to see your new encounters. My name is Bev LISTER and I was born in 1969! My partner takes great pleasure in mocking me when you say “fire up the old girl” 😂. I think the Rum Wench goes to prove the oldies are the besties , love to Bonnie xx

    • @pamcullen537
      @pamcullen537 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Hi Bev, I’m also a boater and my maiden name was Lister. My late husband had an air cooled 1946 Lister which sounded amazing but as he ran it on used cooking oil it smelled like a burger van 😂. My boat is much more fragrant! By the way, I was born in 1954 and still makes me smile to see park benches with Lister Dursley on them. All best wishes to you 🦆💕

    There once was a rum wench named Heidi,
    Whose laughter and charm were so mighty.
    With a drink in her hand,
    She’d dance through the land,
    Her spirit was wild and quite flighty!

    Heidi, what a fantastic video. What a treat meeting up with Pete, Wow. As a child I grew up where you were moored and met the policeman. Queens Street. You were tied up (ooh er) by Cow Lane Bridge, the former name of Frodsham Street I believe. Thanks again for posting and glad your mum made the trip to see you.
    P.S. one of my favourite haunts is Telfords Wharehouse, MANY a happy time spent in there to this day. Cheers.

    Jesus Heidi you have an interesting life and you never know who you will meet on the canals. Peters boat, Emily, is just perfect and that table and the bed ingenious, hope that he is really enjoying been on the canals. Hello mum you're looking great as always.

    Loved this vlog. I went on a horse-drawn narrow boat from Chester to Manchester in 1976. Our start was delayed as our boat needed to be fixed and that boatyard you went past had to finish a boat before they could fix ours. They relaunched the boat sideways into the canal. It ways a fabulous trip. I was on a trip to the homeland as they used to call in my youth, being from Australia. Thank you for your vlogs.

    The sheer volume of history in places like Chester always amaze me! I live in Canada where, beyond a few hundred years of European occupation, the indigenous sites are not at all obvious and they didn't build any monuments or large structures. My own house was built in 1850, which is just a baby compared to the oldies in the UK.

    Love Chester! I was there early in October as a stopover train-hopping from Manchester Airport to Penzance to start a trip across the south coast. I find Chester entertaining every time I visit and there always seems to be something new to see. I walked the towpaths and saw many of the same sights although I didn't have the pleasure(?) of running the locks. I did, however, get a nice 4K video of a drone swoop up the staircase; now I just need to edit it into something useful.

    Sometimes when i watch your video`s Heidi, it reminds me of when i used to have a tug... a lot easier when you are younger, but still doable when older, if you put your mind to it, as peter proves....😘

      I have a tug … I love her … it’s just the deep draft that’s hard work at times as a single handed boater

    Great vlog,really enjoyed the look around Chester, and how lovely to have a mum and daughter day.
    What a nice chap Peter was loved the fab secret places on his boat.
    Made us laugh when we saw the policeman, great that he had his photo taken with you and Bonnie.
    Have a good week, look forward to seeing you and Bonnie next Thursday.XX❤

    Thanks for a lovely reminder of Chester. Did you notice that the cathedral has a detached bell-tower (most unusual) that looks like a sail-less windmill.

    Waw, Heidi! You’ve outdone yourself here: what an amazing vlog! Loved the city of Chester, love history and what is better than to have a teacher explain it all. I thought okay now this is fab just to discover you had Midnight Oil Pete in your rear entrance. Life doesn’t get better than this! What a combo! I hope something musical comes out of this… cheers! 🎉❤😊🥃🦮😎🤞💎💪😜

    Heidi, I always love it when your mom comes on fact I was gonna say when is she doing her next trip with you? It’s been a while last year I think possibly coming out of the black forest going into Manchester or Birmingham… Anyway, I love your mother. I’m glad you finally got that hole done and by an Aussy rock legend to boot… Giffo should do his own Vlog. I would definitely watch it… That is a beautiful town definitely I love it when you do the tours. Thank you, Heidi as usual can’t wait for you to do more of the town tour…

    Telford's warehouse is at the of a long bike ride for me from North Wirral. I've had many a pint in there, followed by a very careful ride along the canal back home. Great to see you visiting Wirral Heidi, and well done for braving the ever fickle Mersey.
