    Chica coverage so very interesting. Always appreciate the “homework”... Just great footage, terrific sound beds! Thanks for all the effort.

    I've been watching you gents for a long time now. One of the reasons I like your content is that I grew up in the UK countryside but have lived in South Korea for 8 years and your vlogs really help with my homesickness. Particularly happy with this episode and the last one as my hometown is Northwich (Barnton) and it's really great to see familiar places but from a different perspective (on the water). Love your content guys! keep it up :)

    That Otis always has such a serious look about him. Always on a gunwale watching so intently and so curious about the livestock! I bet the cows were a total fascination to him. Great story about the Chica. Keep bringing us quality entertainment. We are living this canal journey through you!

    Love your blogs. Don't comment too often, because it must take so much of your time replying to everyone. So I'll just say....thanks for creating something so enjoyable to watch. You have an appeal to so many different people that I know personally. Better than anything on television . I guess for you both it's still a bit overwhelming to know that thousands of folks look forward every week to following your adventures feeling like they know you personally. Hope you carry on enjoying what you've doing and keeping us all entertained. Good 😊 luck. Geoff. 🚂. 🚴. 🎸. 🏊

    Thank you! My husband and I have been so grateful for you two this past 16 months. You’ve managed to distract us from the current events every evening. We’ve learned so much about the canals, toilets, the UK and how many things “you can’t say” on YOuTube. Dillon and Otis have endeared themselves to us and our own pups. (Sam and Fred). Thank you again from Rock HIll, South Carolina, USA.

    Who doesn't have a passion for old timber bridges. They knew how to build them in those days and they fared well over time. You can't say that about a timber bridge today because they're all flat packs for a garden pond.That were a great vlog. Cheers

    I cycled yesterday to Dutton Locks to see Chica. Love the story, so I had to check it. Unfortunately I couldn't make nice picture from the path, but there was a lovely lock keeper who told me a lot about Chica. Thanks for the advice guys!

    I always watch out on our local canal in the Midlands thinking I would catch a glimpse of the silver fox - well yesterday I was in *** for a random day out to the museum and went to the pier (didn’t want to because I couldn’t be bothered with the walk) caught the sight of your boat - then I saw you pair! I was going to get your attention but I saw you were deep in conversation with some other people. Anyway took a picture of my young daughter and the Ferris wheel with your boat also :)!

    We are supposed to be working in one of those houses that need the boats. They got flooded in january. All the materials have to go across the river in them tiny boats. Only we could get a job in the worlds most awkward house

      I think I walked through their garden last week on my way from Sutton Weaver to Dutton Locks. They are lovely properties! I was shocked at how high the water had gotten. I hope you get everything sorted. x
