Something I'd like you to know is that when I am particularly stressed or agitated I binge your channel over and over. I can't move there but I almost feel like I am there and that is often serenity enough, so bless you.
Even though it is so lovely to know that you find my channel relaxing, I hope you don't have too many stressful days too. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
Your attention to everything is fragile and therefore wonderful, and the poetry that materializes in your videos attracts us like the molasses you spread on the leaves and trunks. You make many people happy. Thank you.
Hi Vanessa it’s only me - I’ve been really worried about you and I hope you’ve been alright. It’s just that you didn’t post a Vlog/video last week please don’t think that you have to post one each week. It’s just that I was worried that if you’re okay - I hope you’ve enjoyed this lovely weather. We’ve been having this week unfortunately in the heat my multiple sclerosis Gets really bad - I’ve been in bed most of the week to release the pressure on my spine. I have my two fans going full speed ~ and I’m staying as positive as possible - the nurse has come early with more medication so I’m gonna settle down now and watch your Vlog/video - I hope you have a great weekend and a great week next week - sending loads of love and loads of hugs as always~ Xxx Xxx
Hi Louise, please don't worry about me that is so sweet of you to do so though especially considering your situation; this is testament to what a kind person you are. I am back from my break and vlogging again. I really hope that you can get comfortable. Look after yourself x Thank you for your thoughtful comment. Take care 🌻🦋
my dearest lifetime friend died from complications from MS. a couple of years ago but he had it for 30 years, and still did quite a lot, but was always fighting depression. take care 'only me'....
I am so sorry to hear that you have not been well. I really hoe that you are feeling better now. I wish you all the best in health and happiness- take care ❤️🩹🌻🦋
After an unexpected rush to A and E yesterday ,your lovely soothing video has helped ❤ calm the shock today from my humpty dumpty incident ,its slow beauty, educational shots and artwork are like a balm when life throws an unexpected curve ball😮 We are so lucky to have these peaceful visual treats My thanks for them ❤ and to our wonderful nhs staff who helped me so much.Hope youve had a good break
I shall miss Alice Grace, and Zepher and her ball, and your tea making and lovely drawings, especially. And you… the canal the wild life….I have no adequate words to tell how much.
That is so kind of you. I really appreciate your kind words which are more than adequate. I am back on Friday as I have had my time off. Thank you so much for watching. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
Well said. Perfectly matches how I feel. Combined with her lifestyle, she and her adventuring companion are truly unique. A beautiful blessing on the earth.
Totally agree with the above comments.... An appearance on the One Show and a slot on national TV, awaits this lovely lady and her "partner in crime. "
Fancy pretending Zeph was for sale at the little farm shop Vanessa 😊…I’d have bought her instantly… she’s a credit to your love and devotion, enjoy your family break 😊
🤭🐾🐾 She just looked like she was on sale though! I would never part with her- she's too precious. Thank you so much for watching. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
I hope my views and thumbs thumbs up help a little each week. I live for your release each week! Your videos are lovely. Safe travels from central New York state USA. Alot of your scenery looks like home here to me.
I love your films in every way Each one when viewed uplifts ones day A window into your joyous world Stunning vistas captured by camera held I adore your scatty faithful hound Who retrieves lost balls in single bound Am late in life to at last discover I am at last a true dog lover
This has got to be one of my favourite and most anticipated vlogs each week. Always so crammed full of interesting facts & your wildlife knowledge Vanessa is second to none, I learn so much. It’s 20/30 minutes of escapism each time I view. Thankyou 😊 🌺
I am so touched that you enjoy the channel so much. It is a pleasure and honour to make these vlogs each week. Thank you so much for watching. Have a super rest of the weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
Get yourself a dishing net or pool net with an extension pole, it takes up no space, it can lay under or behind a piece of furniture. Would make retrieving a ball much easier !!! It could also be helpful if Zyph needed help out. Blessings
@@themindfulnarrowboat there are also these plastic wands that have a cup at the end that holds a ball, specifically for flailing the ball long distances for pooch to chase but wand would serve well as scoop for retrieving ball from river. In US they can be found in dollar type store. It would tuck into your backpack (sticking out). Cheers. (Chuckit sport launcher)
Have a great visit with friends and family! Your life on your boat is amazing and I am now officially addicted to watching. It really helps me get through our Texas summer heat. I will be watching older videos you posted until you return! Thanks so much for sharing your time with us!
I am back and vlogging again, Dottie so hopefully I'll see you again on Friday? I really hope the heat cools down for you all out there.Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
What an interesting and informative vlog Vanessa, better luck next time with your moth sugaring! I loved the footage of the old working board and resilient plants. Hope you had a good break and get you can't wait to return. X
Well I never! I have been alive for 51 years and I can honestly tell you that I have been doing that the wrong way since then! 🙈😂Thank you so much for your great comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
You post and I watch. You turned that boat around like a pro. The little farm hut was quite nice to see. Got to love farmers. Till next video have a nice time 👌 🇨🇦 👍
I pray you will have a wonderful time, with family and friends. They are so important in these troubling times. Looking forward to your safe return to Alice.🙏👍🇦🇺
You are pure magic and so talented you drawings are wonderfull so caputures the feel of wild nature and the poems that go with them be so wonderful to have some printed to buy ,i hope you be back soon and your adorable companion lets see you again very soon .robert
That is such a kind comment, Robert. Thank you so much 😊 I am so pleased that you are enjoying the vlogs. Have a super rest of the weekend. Take care🌻🦋
Thanks Vanessa for taking us along on this beautiful cruise through lovely countryside with all the views of the nature and canal boating history. Your journal as always is magical and with the artwork showing the foxglove flower feeding the White-Tailed Bumble Bee looks wonderful. Have a lovely week. Take care and all the best. Stevie
Always a treat! So many wonderful things to see! That farm shop says so so much about the people there... So honest. Much respect. Even when wet everything looks so beautiful. Thx so much❤
Loved the hardy hollyhocks this year, they were out in large numbers in S. Somerse. I'm a Sussex girl but loving Somerset atm...I will do narrow boat life at some point not long term but I will experience it. x You're doing a grand job at it Vanessa!
Hello,I've only recently found your channel...wow what a find.Really love watching your adventures with your beautiful four legged friend.I have very few regrets in my life,but I do so wish I could draw,your talent is amazing.Enjoy your time with loved ones.Take care,love from Walter cat and Me xx
You can draw, I promise you. If you go back to my old videos, you'll see that I really couldn't draw very well at all, but I have practised each week and now I see the difference as I am slowly improving. Please keep trying x. Thank you so much for watching. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
Enjoy your time with Family Vanessa , I was never one to visit relations , maybe they were happy about that. That Farm store was unique in these times. So trusting and believing in honesty is rare. I miss the English rain as the rain where I am is like warm water. That Bee lives a colourful life , almost magical in the plants he gathers from. You are such a lovely Lady Vanessa and It's the English in you that is differs you from other girls of the World. That was another Gem of a Video. Be safe young Lady.
Being Spanish, I consider UK my second homeland, as I had such unforgettable experiences there when I was young. Watching your videos help me to keep in contact with the astonishing canal and those wonderful places around. Wonderful content. Congratulations.
Lovely to see your interaction with lady Zephyr who is the same age as my Lab boy Blaze. They are such beautiful dogs and wonderful companions. Love your adventures, which bring back happy momories of years long gone. Stay safe and well Vanassa and Zephyr. Love from Blaze and me xxx
Sounds like a very good self-care plan with a couple of weeks out every few months ❤ You show us such beautiful details of nature and share such wholesome vision in the midst of this traumatic world of ours. Every blessing to you, Mr M and Zephyr and thank you for yet another beautiful vlog and commentary 🌸🦋🐾🙏
Hi Margaret, thank you so much for your lovely comment. That is so kind of you. I am back now and hope to have a video out on Friday. I hope you have a super rest of the weekend. Take care🌻🦋
Hope you had a good break.Your nature lessons never cease to amaze me.They seem to be developing into a different theme each week, plants,birds, waterfowl, insects and so on.Is this a clever plan or just accidental? Whatever it is it is wonderful.I watched a vlog by a very well known pair last week, and it was really boring .You actually have the same number of subscribers as they do,but you are streets ahead of them in presentation, content and everything else.Have a good week.
I had a wonderful time away- thank you so much 😊 I filmed me doing the engine check today so that will tickle the engineer part of your brain too! 😃 Have a super weekend. Take care 🦋🌻
what a special midsummer journey with you and Zephyr and Alice Grace, and all the birds and bees, the plants, herbs, trees and villages. What a complete farmshop you found. Enjoy your time with friends and family. 😊
Hi Vanessa, it’s a great tribute to your channel that so many of us viewers miss you when you’re away. I found myself worrying that something had happened and so joined your Instagram where I saw you in London on the wildlife march 😅. I hope you enjoy your time with your family and thank you for sharing this beautiful video. ❤
I’m so sorry that you were worried. It is lovely that you have joined me on Instagram though. The march was so inspiring. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻
Well they took one look at me and quickly left so it wasn't that intimidating for me! 😂 I think that I must smell! 🤭 Thank you so much for watching. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa, I love that you are interested in the “resilient” plants and give them attention! Living in the dry southwest of the US, drought resilient plants are my friends in gardening. I spend a lot of time capturing rainwater or carting in mountain stream water to help them on! “Relish the rain” indeed!
I very much enjoyed this one Vanessa. Saturn has had a lovely rebuild and its so n8ce to see her heritage preserved and to see her still hauling cargo. I wish you luck in finding that elusive pink moth. Sending you all my very best from Avondale, Arizona .
Hello Vanessa, I look each day to see if there's another vid, has it been two weeks? I was beginning to think you had jumped ship. Down to two bickies, I see. Checking the comments I notice you have fans across the pond, you will soon be world-famous, Another lovely relaxing video. Bryan. Warrington. Every blessing (John 3:16)
Hi Bryan, I only had last Friday off so perhaps you didn't see the vlog before that? I am back and vlogging again now though. I am so pleased that you are enjoying the videos. Thank you so much. Take care 🦋🌻
Another lovely vlog Vanessa, I have only just discovered your channel and have gone right back to the beginning and I’m on number 70 at the moment. I’ve ordered your book, so I’m looking forward to it arriving.. enjoy your break 😊
So good to see you back on you tube today and I totally understand the need to keep in touch with your family. This weeks poem and drawing were really moving love the way you show us the little things in nature that most of us would overlook like the plant that struggled to grow between steel and concrete or the bee in the foxglove hope you have had a wonderful time with your family and that I will see you here again next Friday Steve
Hi Steve, I have returned from my time away and it was so lovely. I am really pleased that you enjoyed the vlog this week- thank you so much for your kind words. Have a super weekend. Take care 🦋🌻
We thought that dessert was for you and my husband said well she is burning it off every day! glad it was for the moths tho! And the bumble bee - he was practically sliding out of the flower.... Hope your stay away went well
Hi Vanessa, thank you once again for the wonderful video keep up the good work. Don’t scare off too many people you’re such a beautiful looking lady with heaps of character. Lots of love from Australia
Good to see you back. I missed you last week. I assume that was the visit to family and friends that you were talking about this week!! I hope that you had a lovely time.
That was my time away, Ruth and I am back again now. It was wonderful to see my family although I didn't get to see everyone that I wanted to as I ran out of time. Still, I am grateful for the break. I hope you are well? Thank you so much for your kind comment. Have a super week. Take care 🦋🌻
I'm half way in and LOVING it, also enjoyed reading the comments, you have attracted some amazing people in! Got a bit of a bump at the last one I landed on though as I think your music is amazing, and often really love it which I don't normally do with music...I often wonder how on earth you find the perfect piece and the time it must take to do so. I'm already glad to hear the break is over and it's full steam ahead...! Loving Zeph! And no skimping on the bikkies at the end please, we are all starving by the time it gets to the poem and they are well earned!
Hi Mary, you are so kind and I really appreciate your comments. I am so grateful to have some wonderful followers of the channel. I really was too careful with the biscuits this week wasn’t I?🤭 That won’t happen again!😂 Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. Have a super weekend. Take care🌻🦋
Hello Vanessa, I also think the stalls along the road are so cute, unfortunately there are also people who steal the money and products. Have fun during your visits.
Hi Sue, I am back and vlogging again now. It was a super break but I am glad to be back again. I hope you have been enjoying the sunshine? Thank you for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
I had no idea moths could be attracted with a sweet treat (I've learned something new). We never got to see you finish off the ale (LOL). Save travels.
Well, I still need to see if my recipe will attract the moths but generally it is supposed to be a good way to see them. Mr M drank the ale🤭 Thank you for watching. Take care🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa and Zephyr, hope you had a lovely break with your family and the weather was a bit better on your return. Particularly loved the poem this week. Every time I see your lovely mug and saucer at the end that you bought at the pottery, I think how lovely it is. Have a good week xx
❤Loved EVERYthing about this video... thank youuuu so much for creating such wonderful stories (along with captivating visuals) for us to enjoy throughout your journey :)))
How wonderful to see the old workboats still able to be enjoyed. What a cute farm shop! Enjoy your time with family, and Alice Grace will welcome you home for many more adventures very soon . - Mekhala x
Hi Vanessa. Loved the latest vlog. It's great you're going to see family and friends. That's very important. I will miss you and Zephyr very much, but look forward to your return. Please know that you have helped me immensely in so many ways. I, like you, am a lover of Nature and she has so many wonders and blessings to share with us. Thank you for showing us Nature and history by narrowboat. Have a great time. Take care and stay safe. Elizabeth and Alfie ( my Lhasa Apso)
Lovely vlog as usual watching you wind the boat reminded us of a holiday about 6 years ago on the Mon and Brec canal we did what seemed a 20 point turn with my wife on the front with a pole worse winding hole I've ever seen, Loved the bee on the foxglove brilliant photography, hope London went well ,won biscuit challenge was surprised with 2,take care.😊
I bet the Mon and Brec was wonderful though! Congratulations on winning the biscuit challenge- it is rare that only 2 make the plate. 😂 Thank you for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻
I normally stop at the farm shop too. I cannot believe all the types of eggs they have, from turkey eggs to quail eggs in size. I always get 1/2 a dozen duck eggs.
Are the duck eggs nice? Isn't it great to have a whole shop like that built on honesty. I've seen many little ones along the canal but a big shed like that by the road is something else isn't it? Safe cruising, Trev! Take care 🦋🌻
A change is good as a rest they say, be lovely for you and zest to see family and friends, then come back to your nature surroundings, take care catch up soon 😀🐝💐
It was a lovely break indeed and I am back on my boat now which is great too. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋

Hope you had a good break.Your nature lessons never cease to amaze me.They seem to be developing into a different theme each week, plants,birds, waterfowl, insects and so on.Is this a clever plan or just accidental? Whatever it is it is wonderful.I watched a vlog by a very well known pair last week, and it was really boring .You actually have the same number of subscribers as they do,but you are streets ahead of them in presentation, content and everything else.Have a good week.
Hi Chris, that is such a kind comment thank you so much 😊 Where are you now? Are you off on your adventures again? Safe cruising. Take care 🦋🌻
Lovely video, as always.
The close up of the greasy gears tickled the engineer part of my brain.
Enjoy your break.
I had a wonderful time away- thank you so much 😊 I filmed me doing the engine check today so that will tickle the engineer part of your brain too! 😃 Have a super weekend. Take care 🦋🌻
what a special midsummer journey with you and Zephyr and Alice Grace, and all the birds and bees, the plants, herbs, trees and villages. What a complete farmshop you found. Enjoy your time with friends and family. 😊
Thank you so much, Sian. Have a super rest of the weekend. Take care🌻🦋
Thanks for what you do 😇💗💗💗 love and bless you Vanessa, good to go visit your family see you when you come back.
That is so kind of you. I’m back again now and it was a lovely break. Thank you for watching. Take care 🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa, it’s a great tribute to your channel that so many of us viewers miss you when you’re away. I found myself worrying that something had happened and so joined your Instagram where I saw you in London on the wildlife march 😅. I hope you enjoy your time with your family and thank you for sharing this beautiful video. ❤
I’m so sorry that you were worried. It is lovely that you have joined me on Instagram though. The march was so inspiring. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻
That crowd of gongoozlers was quite intimidating😮, sinister-looking in fact😒🙁👥👥👥👥👥👥👥👥👥👥👥😱
Well they took one look at me and quickly left so it wasn't that intimidating for me! 😂 I think that I must smell! 🤭 Thank you so much for watching. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
"Life Finds a Way" Hope you're having a great time! Zeph is so adorable ❤
It certainly does! I had a great time thank you and I’m back now which is lovely too. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻

Such a good narrator. Thanks for your vlog this week. Stay well. x
Thank you so much, Vanessa! Take care🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa, I love that you are interested in the “resilient” plants and give them attention! Living in the dry southwest of the US, drought resilient plants are my friends in gardening. I spend a lot of time capturing rainwater or carting in mountain stream water to help them on! “Relish the rain” indeed!
There are some powerful plants out there aren’t there? Thank you for watching. Take care🌻🦋
I very much enjoyed this one Vanessa. Saturn has had a lovely rebuild and its so n8ce to see her heritage preserved and to see her still hauling cargo. I wish you luck in finding that elusive pink moth. Sending you all my very best from Avondale, Arizona .
Hi Michael, the work that is done restoring those old boats is amazing isn’t it? Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Take care🦋🌻
Hello Vanessa, I look each day to see if there's another vid, has it been two weeks? I was beginning to think you had jumped ship. Down to two bickies, I see. Checking the comments I notice you have fans across the pond, you will soon be world-famous, Another lovely relaxing video.
Bryan. Warrington. Every blessing (John 3:16)
Hi Bryan, I only had last Friday off so perhaps you didn't see the vlog before that? I am back and vlogging again now though. I am so pleased that you are enjoying the videos. Thank you so much. Take care 🦋🌻
I came for the canal cruising and stayed because of your talents. New sub!
That is so kind of you. Thank you so much for becoming a sub too. Have a super rest of the weekend. Take care🌻🦋
Another lovely vlog Vanessa, I have only just discovered your channel and have gone right back to the beginning and I’m on number 70 at the moment. I’ve ordered your book, so I’m looking forward to it arriving.. enjoy your break 😊
Thank you so much for your kind comment and for going back through the old vlogs too. Have a super week. Take care 🦋🌻
Important to stay in touch, cheers to a great video, enjoy the time away!🐕🦺
Thank you so much 😊 Take care 🦋🌻
So good to see you back on you tube today and I totally understand the need to keep in touch with your family. This weeks poem and drawing were really moving love the way you show us the little things in nature that most of us would overlook like the plant that struggled to grow between steel and concrete or the bee in the foxglove hope you have had a wonderful time with your family and that I will see you here again next Friday Steve
Hi Steve, I have returned from my time away and it was so lovely. I am really pleased that you enjoyed the vlog this week- thank you so much for your kind words. Have a super weekend. Take care 🦋🌻
We thought that dessert was for you and my husband said well she is burning it off every day! glad it was for the moths tho! And the bumble bee - he was practically sliding out of the flower.... Hope your stay away went well
It smelt delicious and I was tempted but the moths come first!🤭 Thank you for your lovely comment. Take care🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa, thank you once again for the wonderful video keep up the good work. Don’t scare off too many people you’re such a beautiful looking lady with heaps of character. Lots of love from Australia
What a kind comment- thank you so much ☺️ Take care🌻🦋
Good to see you back. I missed you last week. I assume that was the visit to family and friends that you were talking about this week!! I hope that you had a lovely time.
That was my time away, Ruth and I am back again now. It was wonderful to see my family although I didn't get to see everyone that I wanted to as I ran out of time. Still, I am grateful for the break. I hope you are well? Thank you so much for your kind comment. Have a super week. Take care 🦋🌻
Hello Vanessa, a lovely vlog as usual, enjoy your time on land with family and friends, we’ll miss you. 😎
It was a great time away- thank you so much. Back to the boat and vlogging again which is lovely too. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻
I loved the cooking twist for nature, very well done
Thank you. It smelt very inviting 🤭 Take care 🌻🦋
Haven't seen you on here for ages.
Perhaps you have missed my vlogs coming out somehow? I only had last Friday off. Thank you for watching this one. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋

Such a lovely video and I found it very touching. Thank you 🦋 xxx
Thank you so much kind, Lydia. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
I'm half way in and LOVING it, also enjoyed reading the comments, you have attracted some amazing people in! Got a bit of a bump at the last one I landed on though as I think your music is amazing, and often really love it which I don't normally do with music...I often wonder how on earth you find the perfect piece and the time it must take to do so. I'm already glad to hear the break is over and it's full steam ahead...! Loving Zeph! And no skimping on the bikkies at the end please, we are all starving by the time it gets to the poem and they are well earned!
Hi Mary, you are so kind and I really appreciate your comments. I am so grateful to have some wonderful followers of the channel. I really was too careful with the biscuits this week wasn’t I?🤭 That won’t happen again!😂 Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. Have a super weekend. Take care🌻🦋
Hello Vanessa,
I also think the stalls along the road are so cute, unfortunately there are also people who steal the money and products.
Have fun during your visits.
Thank you so much for watching. It is sad to hear that some people take advantage of the honesty shops. Take care🦋🌻
@@themindfulnarrowboat That is indeed a shame, as stalls keep closing because of it
Amazing!. ✌🏻👊🏼
i guessed foxglove and bumble bee ,garden is looking great ,have a peacefull time with friends and family take care
Great guessing! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Take care🌻🦋
Vanessa Mr M & Zephyr have a lovely break with your family see you on your return
Thank you for brilliant filming always a joy to watch 🐕💜💙
Hi Sue, I am back and vlogging again now. It was a super break but I am glad to be back again. I hope you have been enjoying the sunshine? Thank you for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
I had no idea moths could be attracted with a sweet treat (I've learned something new). We never got to see you finish off the ale (LOL). Save travels.
Well, I still need to see if my recipe will attract the moths but generally it is supposed to be a good way to see them. Mr M drank the ale🤭 Thank you for watching. Take care🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa and Zephyr, hope you had a lovely break with your family and the weather was a bit better on your return. Particularly loved the poem this week. Every time I see your lovely mug and saucer at the end that you bought at the pottery, I think how lovely it is. Have a good week xx
Hi Nicola, it was a lovely break thank you so much 😊 I am so pleased that you enjoyed the poem. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻
Hoping you enjoy your lovely break with family and friends can't wait for the next adventures 😊
It was a super break- thank you so much 😊 I’m back on the boat and vlogging again which is lovely too. Have a great weekend. Take care🦋🌻

Fantastic vlog. Loved watching this. I was at Shardlow by the canal at the time
How wonderful! I hope you had a good time? Take care🌻🦋
Hi Vanessa. Loved the latest vlog. It's great you're going to see family and friends. That's very important. I will miss you and Zephyr very much, but look forward to your return. Please know that you have helped me immensely in so many ways. I, like you, am a lover of Nature and she has so many wonders and blessings to share with us. Thank you for showing us Nature and history by narrowboat. Have a great time. Take care and stay safe. Elizabeth and Alfie ( my Lhasa Apso)
Hi Elizabeth and Alfie, I am back now so there will be vlogs every Friday again. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Take care🌻🦋
Lovely vlog as usual watching you wind the boat reminded us of a holiday about 6 years ago on the Mon and Brec canal we did what seemed a 20 point turn with my wife on the front with a pole worse winding hole I've ever seen, Loved the bee on the foxglove brilliant photography, hope London went well ,won biscuit challenge was surprised with 2,take care.😊
I bet the Mon and Brec was wonderful though! Congratulations on winning the biscuit challenge- it is rare that only 2 make the plate. 😂 Thank you for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care🦋🌻
Hello mindful family.
Hello Mr Will! I hope you are well? A filthy thumbs up to you from the Mindful Crew 👍Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
LOVE AND BEST WISHES,I WILL MISS YOU SO MUCH
I’m back now, David- thank you so much ☺️ Take care🌻🦋
Have a lovely break.
Thank you so much 😊 Take care🌻🦋
I normally stop at the farm shop too. I cannot believe all the types of eggs they have, from turkey eggs to quail eggs in size. I always get 1/2 a dozen duck eggs.
Are the duck eggs nice? Isn't it great to have a whole shop like that built on honesty. I've seen many little ones along the canal but a big shed like that by the road is something else isn't it? Safe cruising, Trev! Take care 🦋🌻
you are absolutely brilliant with your stories Vanessa, love all of your videos. Enjoy the break with your family. Greetings from Germany. 😊
That is so kind of you, Michael! Thank you so much 😊 Take care🦋🌻
What a fascinating tale! I love how you make every experience with your narrowboat sound like a magical adventure. Looking forward to your next update
That is so kind of you- thank you so much! Have a super weekend. Take care 🦋🌻
@@themindfulnarrowboat Thank you very much, you will be fine, take care of yourself and always be happy
A change is good as a rest they say, be lovely for you and zest to see family and friends, then come back to your nature surroundings, take care catch up soon 😀🐝💐
It was a lovely break indeed and I am back on my boat now which is great too. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
