A masterful edging job. 😍😁
Missed you guy’s!! Hope you can get back to weekly videos again, I so much miss the updates and the love seeing Bex and Chris together tackling any and all obstacles!
Thank you Craig,once we're on a roll we can get th out but it's been a tricky few months, so sorry, we can't thank you enough for the support 🙏 ❤️
Ok call me crazy, (doctors say I am) hows ‘bout you merch (sell) the parts of the boat that have been replaced?
“Own a piece of the Wondering Nomadic Crobot!”
Instead of discarding pieces to the bin as trash, sell them. Lol, a piece of the floor, an old crusty rusty valve, PVC pipe autographed, ballast rocks. I think it would be lovely to have a piece of your lovely home on my mantle.
Love watching you two, you make me laugh! I love how you seem to see the humour in all you do. Thank you. Just subscribed.
Hi and thanks for joining the madness, Thank you so much ❤️
Not just a professional plumber, a professional *adult* plumber 👌
exactly 😂😂
Just discovered your great channel and subscribed. Look forward to many more!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for joining ❤️😊
Nice to see you both grand on getting yr covers adjusted and good luck for getting hot water soon tc now both the oldies 🤗🤗👍👍
Thank you oldies have a lovely week ❤️❤️
It’s the year 2054 & we still need to finish the boat before we go cruising… oh wait the canals have gone ..
😅🤣🤣🤣
watching you remove the cover with caution trying to avoid the spiders brought back so many memories for me when i had my boat i used to send the wife in first to try and do a short wrecky for the spiders they didnt bother her but scared me shitless thats why the boat had to go in the end
I do wonder at times if I can handle it, I imagine when the boats finished and it gets cleaned more the spider situation will die down....well fingers crosses, until then im going to live in fear
I love those covers. Top quality. That's going to be a great cruising boat when it's finished. ❤❤
it really adds a new dimension to the narrowboat , cheers buddy ❤️❤️
Great to see you two again.
Becca, having spun around the sun 70 times one thing that I have learned is "if it ain't broke don't fix it!!". If by chance you have not replaced that old valve consider buying a new one and store it somewhere safe, maybe tie it onto the old valve with a piece of string. If the old one does begin to leak then replace it but not until.
Hopefully the weather holds for you guys. We seem to have had a lot of Britain's weather lately, but there isn't anything one can do about that.
REMEBER GUYS YOU HAVE AN ELECTION ON THE 4TH. DO GET OUT AND VOTE IF YOU HAVE NOT!!

Just one step closer guys, can’t wait to see her finished and going along the canals. Great to see you both and take care. 💕
Thank you Pauline, this year has been mega tough xxx
@@TheNomadicCrobot. I’m really sorry to read this guys it doesn’t make for much fun when you’re having a hard time and as your videos are so very upbeat makes it harder still. I love how bright and happy you two are but it can be very hard to keep the cheer in your voice when things aren’t going well. We’re all here because we love watching you, we love your crazy antics, we all get excited for you when things go well but we’d also support you when you’re down that’s what friends are for, to lean on when you need some support. Well I’m here for you guys and I honestly care. Please take care. 🥰 🥰 🥰
Bless you, yes we do try to have fun with the project but it gets the better of us at times, and there have been things going on outside of the boat which have made things a bit harder. but happy to be back, Thank you so much ❤️
@@TheNomadicCrobot Is your dad alright Chris?
02:26 Now there is a brilliant idea for Crobot merch. You could sell Crobot Verified certificates in various areas of expertise, such as plumbing, electrical, painting, hoovering--er, Titaning, Brain-eating Spider Removal, and Verified Rubbish at Everything. Everyone needs a framed certificate on their wall.
A certificate in Titaning is something I can get behind. 😁
Hi you two, got to hand it to you your 100% determined to do the right job on this waterworks on board Crobot 👍 and the Canopy Good for you Guys.😊
Together your doing a great job 😊 Keep up with your positive attitude 👏 and we look forward to seeing you up and exploring the Canal Networks 😊❤xx
Thanks John, the determination is there, though has got the better of us both attires, its been a very tough year but weve managed to just about keep it together xx
The beginning of the video made my head spin and I’d only had one glass of wine 🍷😂. I’m really happy y’all are finishing up the hot water issue.
I still think you’ve finished the boat and y’all are on a beach somewhere 😂😜😆
yes we highly recommend that you get very insanely drunk through our videos, it makes for much easier viewing 😂😂 woaw...now that sounds like a grand idea 😂😂
Hi Chris and Bex. That cover looks excellent. Can they not apply spider repellent 😂 Take care. Nick
There missing a trick with that, could you imagine, spider less covers , woawwww cheers Nick
I like this! You are among a very few nomads living in the same spot. Are you nomads then?
Even if you say that you are to navigate every single spot of the waterway network. You yet almost just been navigate a single spot...
Love the efforts with the onboard waterways!
I think were going to have to rename the channel to the "not so" nomadic crobot, what the hell has gone wrong 😂 Thanks for sticking with us
@@TheNomadicCrobot Oh no! Then you remove the contradiction in your name!
Welcome back I've missed you both
Thanks Tony a slowwwwwww little month
Hello Becca, Chris, I am amazed every week with Becca's skills, and this week is no different. Becca explains how the Calorier works, what pipes go where and why they go where they go. It's way past my pay-scale. Chris you did a fantastic job with the Canopy upgrade, getting it stripped down, off the boat and off to Titan's. You both work very hard and what a great team you both are. So nice to hear a bit of dramatic music. Loved this week's very interesting and informative Vlog. Thank you very much. Spoolbox.
Becca has built up quite the skill set bless her, im glad you are all understanding it...its still very mind boggling to me, I feel we are a good little team we both have our moments, Thanks so much for sticking with us
I went there to get a new zip fitted. Just remembered. While I waited. Cycled up from the river.
great little family run company Will
Hi guys love watching you, I look forward to watching you when you post, you both make me laugh 😆, becks your an inspiration in what you do 😊
Thanks so much for enjoying our nightmare adventure
This Channel is so Wholesome ! xx
Thank you so much 😊❤️
Yes, i would go with the ball valve. The packing leaks in the gate valves.
Thanks for your advice
Great Video Guys , Motorhead all the way Chris R.I.P Lemmy .
absolutely ❤️❤️❤️
Well we know which poppet on the titan cover will pop out first! 😁 Good video, thank you. Just what I need as I anxiously wait while big sister goes in tobhave another cancer operation. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Oh Bless her, such a tough time for you guys, glad we managed to make this hard time that tiny bit easier, we're sure she will pull through ,sending lots of love ❤️ ❤️❤️
Nice one Guys (Go Kart Tyre Kid) 👍🏼
Hi Nick thanks for telling us that, we really do appreciate them,just get confused with who's who at times,thanks so much 😀
Great job Bex................
Thank you ❤️
Hello sweeties ! Botties! Chrissy and bex! You’re getting there guys ! Chris you sure you weren’t that special kid at school !! lol joking Chris ! Have a great week you lovelies peeps !! See you on the next one xxx
Hi Mandy, Thanks for all your support, its been a tough journey this one, hope you have a lovely week xxx
Might be worth spaying all the edges and seams with Scotchguard, or whatever its called, to add that extra level of water resistance? Btw, I like the fact you never move, adds "authenticity".
haha thats a very good point Thank you
Nice one guys 😊
Do you guys live on the boat full time?
How do you cope?
I love watching what you are achieving. xx
80% of the time yes, though its been a bit of a rough year so it's probably been a bit less, thank you so much for the support 😀 ❤️
Bex looks like she's in the dentist waiting room
😂😂😂
I've heard Barford bridge is getting some of those inflatable buffer sausages like you get at bowling alleys.
Should be safe for you then😂
finally we can return the bridge 😂😂
I was stood on my boat minding my business with a beer when I felt this almighty pain in my leg thought it was a wasp but it was actually a false widow. that was the last thing it ever did 😂
Scary things, I have heard the bite is very similar to a wasp, why do these things love boats???
good vid on chanel
cranking it thanks for the vids you do thanks lee
Thanks Lee we really appreciate the support ❤️
Don't know why you don't get rid of all that ballast, any company that makes or sells them will give you more broken concrete tiles and you can always find that stuff free to take away. Just generally getting rid of all the not needed stuff would make life easier.
were holding off for when the boats done so we can make sure we have enough to level it out, saying that there's n nothing more than id love to do but book a huge skip for it all 😂😂 what a mess
Wondering why didn't you install the calorifier next to the boiler, you would have had to run less pipe and low loss of heat. But admiration on your determination.
we are hoping to have the water heat from the engine when were cruising so having the tank there supposedly optimises its use
If possible insulate the pipe carrying hot water, specially the long lengths.
That's a very good point, thank you
Hi guys hope yr both ok. Sorry I’ve not left any comments recently I was temporarily suspended from making any comments because of some daft things that I don’t believe in. I’ve had my say a bit too many times for their liking. Even tho I wasn’t the one making horrible remarks about certain people I was just saying it was wrong. Long story but I’m back on now that the ban has been lifted (I feel like a villain lol) 😂. Anyway I’m glad to see you’re cracking on with things and the WW will soon be sailing! Good luck with the (MOT) checks I’m sure it will pass. Catch you both soon. Huge hugs ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Estelle, thats ok...we all have our lives to lead, it's probably quite frustrating seeing us not moving 😂😂 oh no now I need to know what you said that got you banned??? Thank so much for being back with us, fingers crossed sh passed the safety checks have a lovely week ❤️❤️❤️
@@TheNomadicCrobot
Oh I’d love to tell you but I’ll get suspended again hahaha. Right let me try to explain haha. Without saying exactly what it was it was about the month that’s just been celebrated. Our own daughter is l***ian (have to put that or YT will send me to the gallows if I say the word.) So I’m obviously not against anyone as she’s my best mate, no matter what their lifestyle. Until it starts affecting kids and then I have a problem and so does my daughter and many other L G B …. So I’ve said a few times that I don’t think kids should be told they can be something they were not born as or given anything that could affect them long term when they don’t know their own minds at such a young age. I was only discussing it with other people who were saying it too but I was struck off and suspended. I also commented on Dr*g story hour, where men dressed up read to kids! I just think they’re adult entertainers and what the heck have they got to do with story hour for little babies? I don’t get it. Hope you can get what it was from this cryptic comment lol. I don’t care who does what as long as kids are not hurt. Each to their own and I don’t judge anyone but I just love kids and if there’s a chance something could harm them I can’t keep shtum. Hey ho anyway I’ve been allowed to comment again hahaha. Til next time 😆
And good luck! Hope she passes with flying colours 🙏🏼. xxx
You are moving slower than the glob warming 😂. But i enjoy at max each vid and hope to see you in many. Maybe you will trow a party for a "new boat" after the renovation and when you will start going on👍.
we know, weve had alot to contend with these last years and this one has been especially hard, Thanks for your comment ❤️
@@TheNomadicCrobot i'm seeing myself in you, how not to love ? 😘
👏👏👍
You are quite the lady Becks.
amazing girl ❤️
Leave that rising stem valve(stop cocky valve) alone.
it's not leaking and it may never leak.
Ball valve(leavery one) can leak also.
Thanks for this
@@TheNomadicCrobot Yea, don't waste money listening to armchair boatwrights regurgitating they read from some other armchair expert. Talk to tradesmen. Those valves have been used in various industries for long before you were born. it looks like a rising gate valve. there is a seal on the shaft that can be tightened if leaking around the gland. I've used them for steam, fuel, water, oil, even air. Now, if you were doing a complete strip and rebuild I'd go with new, but not plastic valves(they get brittle and don't handle frost very well.
Anyway, good luck with your boat and channel
Thanks
Thank you so much for this, so incredibly kind of you ❤️
@@TheNomadicCrobot you are both so much like us when we were younger and I love watching your journey
We try and make the most out of the nightmare that we have been delt 😅 Thank you so much for joining us on this adventure
Bex shouldn't be on the cover................She should be the Centerfold.
now were talking 😂❤️
Will this boat ever be done... Maybe buy a caravan instead... 😀
good idea
Sorry guys but unless there is some chaos, disaster and or shenanigans, discombobulation or other failure I’ll have to unsubscribe.. Hope you had some cooling cream after all that Titan love 😂😂😂 (keep em coming)
😂😂 your not wrong....we try harder to destroy something in the next weeks 😂😂
So no new content,,,, canopy,,,, spiders,,,, and plumbing we have seen……. I m sure you have been busy, but… people wait for the next vlog and ..oh .. we’ve seen that 😮
Sorry Patrick , we can only really put out what weve been doing, its been a rally tough year so far
😂
Hope all is going well. Trying to stay off TH-cam well cut down at least coming to addicted too it. Not good
Hi Simon, I dont blame you its very easily done, hope your well, weve both had a long hard year but still managing to stick it through at the moment , have a lovely week❤️
Hi guys love your videos, but wonder why your lovely boxer is never in them. Being a boxer dad myself I know he/she would add a lot to your content. So please please give your wiggle butt some airtime 👍
Hi James thank you for your comment, unfortunately cooper passed away a few years back, it was quite upsetting for us so we didn't feel comfortable putting a video out explaining, though means alot that you can still remember him, thank you so much ☺️ 😀 🐶
@@TheNomadicCrobot so sorry that Cooper is no longer around. I always seem to put my foot in it like that. Losing pets is terrible.
Keep up the good work guys. Always fun to watch 👍
No way that was 12 months ago.....
Was it 2 years ago maybe??? 🤔
I forget its been so long 😅
Will titan give me free pram if i say i no you
definitely 😂😂
Great video guys but stop complaining about the spiders. The spiders we have here in Australia are poisonous and can kill you. The worst your spiders can do is scare you to death. 😂
but there so scary with there long legs Henry 😂😂
haven't looked for at least a year. nothing happened apart from a few plugs for a few companies. so you're still conning everyone for a few quid? time to feel ashamed innit?
We dont charge for our videos there free for anyone to view 😉
Just to let you know that you haven't been missed.
New high quality covers rain proof sun proof snow proof ,,, bridge proof ?,,🤔
😂😢😊
Maybe an ideea for boat airbags? Or some springs horns 😄
@@dand5593 😂🤣😂🤣
only one way to find out 😂
Hey I thought your face was familiar, you used to work at Customark previously Intascreen, I am the Crosland engineer remember me? I moved the machine from Meldreth to Royston. I have a boat on the go it's a 57 ft Trad, I don't have a TH-cam channel, but I do post on Canal world forum, we should keep in touch. my name is Phil
Hi Phil, yes I just about remember, I quit there to work on this chaotic project, woaw thats amazing, yeah Jay that works there too used to own one, one problem...nether of us have ever moved much 😂😂 will have too hook up when were out buddy
