I went for a walk today along the tow path and I saw Gregory's Girl. I was so excited to see her but you were not home. I hope I see you tomorrow because you are one of the reasons I left Canada to live on a narrowboat. Love Chris
Thanks so much for featuring Tarporley! I was crew on it on that day showing people around! Spotted both you guys i was in absolute awe! It was lovely chatting to you both!
Such a lovely day out in London with your guys. Your vlog captured all the atmosphere of the show. So glad Jason and his sandwich 🥪 lived to cruise another day 😅❤🧸🧸
I am glad you had a lovely time, it’s great fun taking part, and I am happy you showed Trelease quite a lot as that is the first Brum Tug made, there were 2 BTs there, mine being the other one 😊… sadly the event does tend to get spoiled by the Banthams that you see trying to interfere with the pageant and generally cause mayhem and hit other boats… mine got hit badly last year, but there is nothing that the organisers can do about it… sadly the selfish side of boating 😢
"Trying to cause mayhem and hit other boats"... not at all. No boats hit, nothing damaged at all, and no one held up either. The first time Barnet appeared was to collect Richard Parry who changed his mind and decided not to come. The second time with Scouser and Barnet we were enjoying the parade and providing some action and movement for the spectators and were careful to move around in the gaps between other boats so as not to be disruptive. Incidentally all the people on the tugs in the video are also IWA members, the company is a corporate member, and we supply a good deal of equipment to the event, like the pontoon being used as a stage and the smaller tug used by WRG, free of charge to enable the event to take place.
@@jamesthecox so why do pirouettes in the pool when when others boats were participating in the organised parade… being an IWA member doesn’t mean you get to rain on anyone’s parade… the organisers said the banthams weren’t even registered for the cavalcade… why not officially take part if you want to participate? last year one of them went through the bridge so fast that they couldn’t stop when a go boat was in the way and clattered me so hard that I was knocked off my seat… Why not just let the boaters do what they had come a long way and paid to do without having to avoid idiots who should know better…
@@trossyafon8214 why do pirouettes in the pool? Because it is interesting for the public, first and foremost. More action and spectacle than a slowly chugging series of very similar looking narrow boats. Very appreciated too from all the comments I saw on the day and subsequently. As I said in the previous comment, we were careful to only do things between other boats in a natural lull, briefly, and moved about the pool- the longest time spent being to the side of the island, out of the parade route. The entire time we were observing what else was happening and instantly moved out of the way of anyone wishing to move through. And we were particularly careful that no-one had to avoid us, we were always giving way and moving around them. it's a bit hard to "register boats for cavalcade" when you're not sure which boats will be there until the day before- because they are working, day in and day out, all over London and surroundings. Including moving the floating stuff for Cavalcade, placing, moving and replacing the buoys for the boat handling, and moving non-participating, unattended boats for the IWA and CRT so that everyone can be moored where they are put by the organisers. I think the organiser you spoke to wasn't particularly well informed, because the company that owns these tugs is an official commercial partner of the event. It seems the organisers have decided that charging £30 or £40 to register boats that may or may not be there, to a company that is providing thousands of pounds worth of support free of charge, is a bit churlish. I personally spent about 14 hours that week, unpaid, doing work that would support Cavalcade, such as securing the handrails to the floating stage at 10pm on Friday whilst everyone else was enjoying the beer tent! However there are other tugs also in the area owned by other people and companies, which complicates the matter. What colour was the tug that was speeding last year?
Loved the vlog and happy we'll see doops chunking on food for a little bit longer ❤ I wished narrow escapes had featured you on all 5 episodes instead of 3
Thanks for all your videos, found you some time ago and look forward to each new vlog. Sorry about Dupes, sad to see him in these catching up videos but he was a much loved rabbit. Amy, where do you get your headbands from, love them. Thanks. Keep vlogging xx
Hello Amy, Wes, An excellent Vlog as always. All those canal boats, so many. Was there a local area where they could turn round to go back home? Take care. Spoolbox.
Hi guys. I just finished watching narrow escapes. Is there a second season? It seemed to just stop at the end of episode 15 like they gave up filming and forgot an episode? Cliff hanger 😢 what happened to the boat that hit the bridge, did they find enough pine cones, 😲

I'm catching up on videos! This looks like a fun day. I always loved seeing how Dupes demolished his veggies. So nice that we're still seeing him.
Thanks so much for featuring Tarporley! I was crew on it on that day showing people around! Spotted both you guys i was in absolute awe! It was lovely chatting to you both!
Really enjoyed that, looks like a grand festival- your 'younger' take on canals is quite refreshing.
Loved the chaos of it, looked like a right laugh.
Such a lovely day out in London with your guys. Your vlog captured all the atmosphere of the show. So glad Jason and his sandwich 🥪 lived to cruise another day 😅❤🧸🧸
Ahh, IWA event and chaos... two things that seem to have gone hand in hand since time began! Fun for the gongoozlers though! :D
I love these 2 kids! All power to you!
Lovely to see tge last few videos featuring lovely Dupes.❤️
Oh Doobs I love you ❤
Saturday morning at 9am is probably the local park run. They are all over the country on a weekly basis.
Izzie and Ciara! I think the world of them. I love it when my You Tube crushes run into each other. 😊
Same!! I came here to say all of that! 🧶
It's like the Llangollen in summer 😂😂😂
11:29 😂😂 one of the bears on board getting a bit too excited at a FAMILY event 😂😂😂😂
I know - disgraceful scenes! He just really really likes boats!
Thanks for the great video both, it was great to see the amazing 'Brum Tug' Trelease again!

Amy spoke about it in the last video, were your ears pinned on?
Try being a bit more empathic.
