Greetings from South Carolina, I went to my doctor today, she asked how am I keeping my stress down. I told her that watching your channel along with Julie and Martin also Paul and Antony. I am so happy for all of you and the close friendships you have with all the boaters. God Bless
Hello South Carolina and Greetings from Cambridgeshire in England 🇬🇧👋👋🇺🇸. Good choices there - in fact you follow the same favourite narrowboat channels as me! One more I could recommend for you to maybe take a look at and that's "The Mindful Narrowboat" with Vanessa and her dog Zephyr - she's excellent for keeping the stress levels down. Stay safe.
That's wonderful to hear James, and exactly the feeling I am aiming for with the vlogs, especially the music choices. The boating community, as you can see, is one of the huge positives of this lifestyle, and we are lucky to have have found some wonderful friends. Paul & Anthony were one of the first bloggers we watched when we were researching this lifestyle change, together with Fran & Rich of TH-cam channel Floating Our Boat, not sure if you have checked them out? the Mindful Narrowboat is also a good relaxing choice like Jill has said too, although we have only exchanged hellos and waves with Vanessa when we passed her a couple of years ago. I remember our first time crossing paths with Julie & Martin when they had just started their channel and they were excited to be recognised, and now we are the best of friends 😊
The area of the Foxton locks sure was pretty. Your video tonight was a nice way to end an emotional day. I'm out of town for the weekend and today attended a cousin's memorial. Just relaxing now and staying cool. We're in the middle of a heatwave of temps in the high 90's! Glad the car has great AC!
We are so sorry to hear about your sad day Joyce, but are glad we helped in some way to bring some peace to you. You’re right, Foxton is a beautiful area and we never tire of the view from the top of the locks. We certainly don’t miss those temperatures in the 90s from our Texas days 😊
Thanks so much Phil! Pete’s very dedicated to those planters. But we have decided we need to replant them with some autumn colour as they haven’t faired as well as previous years with this cold wet summer we have had!
Hiya Caroline and Pete, wow 😮. Beautiful foxton, so very pretty there. I am in the middle of writing you a letter, then I will start getting your pressie removed from the stretch frame and putting it all together, along with the other hobby that I do. And you will never have to buy these for about a year. Take care ❤ X X X
Thank you so much Colin! Always good to hear that people are enjoying what we are putting out there. Choosing the music is one of my favourite parts of the editing process 😊
@@neildaly6787 thanks Neil. I’m only an honorary member of the boating community at the min as I don’t have my own boat yet but plan on getting one very soon.
Foxton seems an age ago but it was another fantastic weekend. As for taking advantage of me with the car shuffle, you can’t take advantage enough after all you’ve done for me and you know I love to help where I can. All Pete’s cassette training came in handy last week. He taught me well. 😂. Have a great weekend. See you soon xx
You didn't know it would be Phil Week this week did you 😂 And next time you have a full starring lead role! Everyone will be inviting you over for cake ❤️
The trip down Foxton locks looks so nice. I know the swing bridge you are talking about on the Market Harbourough arm, we went through it whilst on a helmsman course and took 2 of us to operate it.
It is honestly the most difficult swing bridge on the network to operate! Perhaps there are others that we haven’t done yet! I don’t think I’ve ever managed to lift the latch mechanism and push the the gate at the same time without someone’s help. Either Pete has to get off the boat or a lovely passer by or other boater has helped me. I don’t know how solo boaters manage it! You’ll see how lucky we were on the next video! Thanks for watching 😊
This has been a very popular video - as I was watching the number of likes went up by 20!! And 204 “views” - just gos to show how much people love your channel - mmmm a fire in June - might have to rethink our heating on the widebeam build……..
We are very happy and still in a little disbelief at how the channel has taken off, and how many lovely viewers we have from all over the world, yourselves included! We have the multiple stove, and 3 diesel radiators heater through the Eberspacher, that we use to take the chill off the boat in the winter mornings. It has been a lot colder this year and the fire has been lit far more than we would like in the 'summer' months! 😳
I do enjoy your videos very much. Your videos and pictures of your folks countryside just , must say blows my mind of the beauty there. Your blogs just brings out the beauty of your country. Be safe and Cheers 👍🫶🌹🍻🇨🇦
We are so happy we have this way of bringing you along on these journeys with us. We are always astounded by how little of the UK we had actually seen before we moved into our boat, and this is a beautiful way to explore our country 😊
Great blog guys, I've been using the merlin app for some time and yes it's brilliant. I wish when my friends visited they would bring cakes and tarts Like yours did as they looked yummy. Stay safe 🙏.
Thanks so much as always Billy! It was like a while new world opened up to us when we downloaded and started using the Merlin app. It's so interesting that it can pick out so many birds in the chorus around us. It's always wonderful having Phil to visit, and even better that he calls ahead to give us some options from his extensive baking repertoire! 😊
It’s Phil Week in the world of narrowboat vlogging! He’s on Narrowboat Life Unlocked’s video too this week 😂. And yes, those cakes are all his own work from scratch, and he even gives you some options to choose from before he arrives. You need to invite him to stay 😂
@@onedaymoreaboard we watched him on that too 🤣🤣 I need him to educate me as these are my favourite cakes. Just balled my eyes out re: Dexter tribute xx😬😬
Lovely set of locks - so close together. You made it though before the rain started. Weather here - cool fall day. High of 67 F and a low of 42F tonight. Had to shut the window last night - just the north winds and cold last night to keep it open. That was a first closure of the window due to cold since early spring. Even cooler tomorrow but then next week back into the 80s. Not looking forward to the winter - calling for a 'harsh cold and snowy' winter - we'll see if they are right. Take care - hope the family / puppies and you are doing well. Enjoying the new ride (Durango) - it's larger then the old Equinox. God Bless - Be safe. spinner
It's such a beautiful view from the top of Foxton Locks. They are the longest set of staircase locks in England, where the top gates of one lock are the bottom gates of the next, so that's why you have to be very careful going down to open the paddles in the correct order to prevent flooding, or draining the locks by accident!. We had never had to pass a boat in the middle pound like that before so we were grateful for the help of the experts to guide us! we have woken up to that misty rain that makes you so wet, but at least it's not too cold yet! Love the Durango, we are sure you will have many happy years with it. Stay well 😊
Love this! It's Time On Our Side by Ten Towers. Here is the full version on TH-cam if you want a listen th-cam.com/video/0MqqeXvnk78/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fZqeZx6PVPtrCPbj 😊
@@onedaymoreaboard THANKS! ♥️ my name is Gary & Linda Crabtree. Ben and Mag was our dogs. Ben bit Maggie as a new puppy. So we name our channel ben8mag. lol!
Hello Gary & Linda! Oh no, that not good but funny all the same! What a great channel name! Our TH-cam name before we got the boat was Mr Jasperooney, named by our kids when our oldest boy Jasper, who is no longer with us, was a puppy and his nickname has always been Mr Jasperooney! 😂
Actually Alex can't take the credit for that end song, it's by Ten Towers, but he wrote other music that I use on our channel every now and again, including those opening few notes 😊
It's 69 degrees right now. I know we'll have more beautiful days but right now it definitely feeling like fall. It's too soon! 🍂 🍁 Looks like Phil got a better day with you than he did with Paul in this week's vlog. 😊 Anthony said you're all going to Barcelona! I'm obsessed with Gaudi so I'm very envious. ❤
Yes we are very excited Dorothy! We have been talking about going away somewhere together since we were traveling together last year and now it’s almost here! Fall is definitely in the way here too, and like you say, seems far too early. We didn’t seem to have had much of a summer this year, and the nights are already drawing in and we are waking up to chilly temperatures! 😊
We've just had to light the fire! It's going down to the low 40s tonight. We tried to brave it out last night and woke up very chilly. The dogs are happy though as they like nothing better than snoozing by the fire 🔥
@@onedaymoreaboard I haven't turned on the heat yet. Trying to put it off. Of course it has gotten warm again but some day soon the heat will have to go on!
We can highly recommend it! It really is a lovely area of the country, and the view from the top of Foxton Locks is just stunning! Thanks for watching 😊
Yikes! Cold enough for a fire in June?!? 😮 I was in northern WI, USA in June and though it was chilly and rainy, not cold enough for a fire. It looked really cozy, sitting by that fire. Love your filming and stills (and when you switch a scene from color to b/w). Caroline, you calling "Enjoy!" to Pete as he was trundling down the path, made me chuckle. Bet he just loved that!😂 Safe cruising and have a great, and dry, week.
Glad you enjoyed the video and especially the stills Julia! It's always very reassuring to hear that people are enjoying our format. Pete loves that toilet emptying 'banter' that we have!! I do offer to do that job but he always says no 😂 Our daughter lives in WI, and loves the seasons compared to our time in TX, although the extreme snow is something else! 😊
Hello from San Antonio, Texas! You probably don't miss the over 100 degree (F) weather here. I want to say that I enjoy seeing the black and white stills of the videos. Nice effects. Love the cutie pups too.
Thank you so much! No, you're right we don't miss those crazy hot temperatures when everyone just wanted a few days in the high 80s for some respite! We have some lovely memories of quite a few visits to San Antonio, mostly for choir and band competitions! 😊
The pink osteospermum are lovely- such a bright pop of colour~ the duckling audience was very sweet. all that pfaffing about with the car - do you sometimes want to NOT have the car! Phil - saw him a few minutes ago on Narrowboat Life Unlocked! Are you training him?
Several viewers said they have seen Phil in Paul & Anthony's vlog too! We said it must be Phil Week! That flower is beautiful isn't it! I'm glad you told us the correct name. The minute I saw it I knew it needed the black & white too colour transition! Having the car is sometimes a pain, yes, but it's really still necessary as Pete sometimes needs it for work meetings and I want to be able to get to my Mum's easily too. Moving it, we have decided, is just part of the adventure 😊
So kind of you to say! I started taking an interest in photography about 15 years ago and have done a few online courses, and used to take natural light family photos for friends, so not exactly professional, just a passion of mine really, but it's nice to have this avenue to share now 😊
Hi Richard, the opening shot with the white cottage in the intro on the videos is actually Tatenhill Lock on the Trent & Mersey Canal. I think it was filmed on our second week of cruising back at the very start of this life! Thanks for watching 😊
Lovely to hear that you enjoyed it. Yes, the cakes are homemade by our friend Phil! It’s always wonderful when he comes to visit and brings us treats 🍰😊
Finally got around to asking a very important question...is Pete the one who has to empty the toilet cassette all the time? I can't help but wonder what negotiations took place to produce that result? 😉
Well, it does always get round to the toilet question eventually, and yes, Pete is the chief emptier! 😂 I do offer (sometimes), but he always says no! We do sort of have a division of duties, and I take care of all the laundry, and most of the inside cleaning, while Pete takes care of the outside maintenance. My facilities jobs are emptying the rubbish, and doing all of the 'water' jobs, like the washing machine, washing up dishes and filling the kettle etc. And then there are other jobs that we divide equally, like the cooking! 😊

I love the color of your kitchen cabinets.
Thank you! Considering we chose everything online without seeing it we are really happy with how it all turned out 😊

Hi guy's, great vlog again. Your planters are looking good, all Peters hard work.
Thanks so much Phil! Pete’s very dedicated to those planters. But we have decided we need to replant them with some autumn colour as they haven’t faired as well as previous years with this cold wet summer we have had!
Hiya Caroline and Pete, wow 😮.
Beautiful foxton, so very pretty there.
I am in the middle of writing you a letter, then I will start getting your pressie removed from the stretch frame and putting it all together, along with the other hobby that I do.
And you will never have to buy these for about a year.
Take care ❤ X X X

Excellent Video again! Thank you for sharing
You’re so welcome! It’s always lovely to hear you’re enjoying them 😊
Love the drone shots!❤
Thanks Lorna! Pete has become quite the drone pilot now and I loved finding the perfect music to show it off 😊
Lovely as usual. There’s no place cozier on a damp day than in front of a Narrowboat fire
You’re so right Beth! Always lovely to hear you’ve enjoyed the videos. Hope you are both well 😊
nice video and a good selection of music. Thanks for doing this. Colin from Canada.
Thank you so much Colin! Always good to hear that people are enjoying what we are putting out there. Choosing the music is one of my favourite parts of the editing process 😊

During Ep95 we were wondering whether the lock in the opening title sequence is Foxton top lock or possibly Hoo Mill lock on the Trent and Mersey?
Hi Richard, the opening shot with the white cottage in the intro on the videos is actually Tatenhill Lock on the Trent & Mersey Canal. I think it was filmed on our second week of cruising back at the very start of this life! Thanks for watching 😊
