More Avon, can't be bad!! Well, you managed to avoid two of the three p!aces we had to rescue hirers from when I worked for a hire fleet on the Avon! The first was Marcliff weir, where we once had a 65ft boat go straight over the Weir in a flood, they missed the lock cut completely!! Second was Harrington Weir, where they would get pulled sideways by the current, and get trapped against the weir, then we went out and winched them off! ( Quite common that one) The third one you haven't shown yet was when boats would go straight on at Offenham lock, and bypass it completely, by bumping there way down the weir stream! All helped to pass the time, never had anyone hurt!! By the way, I thought it looked like a crocodile!🐊🐊😏
Love the video and the river, but I like the cannel tow paths so one can get to villages and towns do keep enjoying the journey I don’t think anything puts the lovely cats off
Nice to see you. It seamed like you were traveling thru Massachusetts, USA - all the same towns along the coast, It always amazes me how they came so far to settle here and named their new town location after the one left behind. XOX
If your going anywhere near Bideford Worcestershire. Be aware they have scaffolding up on the bridge end arches. I was there last weekend. Still enjoying and jealous.
Thanks once again for letting me ride along. I don't know where I would have moored, but I suspect David, having found your perfectly suitable overnighter, would have continued on until he found something not quite as nice.
I didn't notice anything strange about the bridge arches except the one you went through was very well marked. When I saw the bit of wood it immediately made me think of an iguana. I saw a beautiful igauna on my way home from shopping yesterday. Thanks for sharing your journey.
What a glorious day!! I never want the vlogs to end, but this journey was so stunning I have to watch again. Just cant thank you enough for taking us along!
Love the cats, the wife and I do town catch and release as well as feeding them. Compared to our lot (we have cats that on home-stay due to their parents situation and have 4 others of our own one is an hic? child but it's amazing what he can do, bit scary when he crosses the road though, his sister didn't make it but now he thinks he's grown up and interdependent, he's still only a baby at 3 years old but very determined. Love the fact your children can stay on a narrow boat and wait to get on land. Guess I'm just a softy, love all animals.
Hi I have just found your channel and been binge watching . In these uncertain times I find you both take my mind to a better place love the vlogs thank you x
fantastic video again girls.family members have a caravan at harvington .so know the area well ..hopefully were you moored up you went to see the old mill which is on the island .all intact but needs plenty of TLC.to restore it..Think if you had just gone round the corner to the next lock the mooring would have been better . keep the blogs coming.one day i will get to say hello if you come back to knowle locks again.
Hello hello' ...I really enjoyed the wonderful journey and the spectacular scenery' ...the bridge - some Shakespearean connection perhaps? ...I saw the log as a frog too ha ha. As long as you moor as safely as possible, at the park would be cool ...your cats are beautiful' thank you for sharing' take good care.
Another beautiful cruise, thanks for all the wonderful footage and commentary. Definitely enjoy Kath's succinct explanations of the differences in the locks, the landings, etc. And glad the 4th boat satisfied the curiosity about if any viewers were passing! But now I'll be awake all night wondering... what about the arches? :) Stay safe and fingers crossed for more good weather for the remainder of the Avon!
Thanks Gals for sharing such a wonderful cruise bringing me aboard "LAZY DAYS", as it is here, ... helps remind one of life on the canals again Did you hear about the three sailors and the midshipman.... Good.
I love it at Harvington lock. I have spent many days blacking boats for other people in the dry dock just over that bridge. The dry dock used to be the original river lock before it was replaced with the new one you just used. Glad your enjoying our beautiful river Avon
Such a beautiful journey indeed! You both are very lucky! Oh and the bridge has different size arches, both in height and design! Have fun and please keep the videos coming!
We did that bit of The Avon on our first ever narrowboat holiday, it must be very nice because we hired 5 more time before buying our boat in 2015. Don't remember that much as it was 2006.
Sitting with a lovely pint of Guinness and watching the scenery really like the caps ladies, well I’ll. watch until the end and then I’ll have to make my darling wife her tea as she is working today but as I make all the meals it’s no hardship and there’s nothing nicer than someone enjoying the meals that you serve up
I really enjoy your vlog. This one in particular. Loved the focus on the kitties at the end. My wife loves the cats as well. Glad to see it when they approve of your mooring.
Bedford bridge was where Top Gear did a show trying to drown all the onlookers from the pub garden. Some years ago now, they also ditched a caravan in a local field. It could still be there.
Interesting vblog. You two are very close to where I live in Worcester. Pershore is a nice place to moor up . It's a Georgian Town with lovely buildings and a Abbey . Bank Holiday should have been the famous Plum Festival, though due to covid restrictions its been cancelled. One place that's nice to sit in the Garden and have a refreshing drink of local ale or cider is the Angel Hotel . Regards to you both .
I'm abit later watching today. Always enjoy my Sunday vlog. I like the 3 single ladies Annamarie. I'm with Kath, not heard it b4 in that rhyme but I'd wouldn't mind if 3 single ladies came along for me, especially if one had a narrowboat.😂
Lovely vlog. Really like the new narrative style. I think it may have been a distant relative of the Loch Ness Monster????? Hugs to you both and the kitties 🇨🇦💕
Very nice blog, well at long last after many months of hard work, we have taken NB Dogs Allowed out on the G&S for three small trips. One day we might make it to the Avon. Will need a bathroom and bedroom before then🤣
That bow deck looks really precarious. I appreciate you get more room inside but I wouldn't fancy standing on there in some deep locks that I've been through where you pass your rope through cables in lock walls.
Hello ladies, great vlog. I love watching you to. I just recently put 2 and 2 together, 😂🤣 that Annamarie is the one that does all the art work for some of the other great Narrow Boat vloggers. Some really great ones. Wonderful work. The scenery was really beautiful. Thank you again. Until next time. Hugs from Las Vegas NV. 💕💕🐾🐾
Good afternoon girls, and lovely to see your beautiful smiles again! There seemed to be an awful lot of junk in the Avon, dead trees, and other debris, causing restrictions! But beautiful scenery! Button says 'Hi!' to you all! Stay safe! :-)
That looks a lovely place to cruise got to put it on my to do list as it's not too far for me. Thanks to your inspiration I have finally installed a diesel heater on the boat so I have heat throughout so its brilliant and has set me up for some all year cruising. Even have a vent on the deck to keep me warm when steering. Cheers guys take care. Alan x
My friends and I moored at Bidford bridge on a Sunday and watched all the cabin cruisers parading up and down the river .Two of them tried to use the navigation arch at the same time!
Love the lightheartedness of your natural selves much more than the more formal, scripted style. Still the nicest Narrowboat channel though.
More Avon, can't be bad!!

I think it’s quite remarkable that your kitties know to return to their boat home and don’t wander off. I love the perimeter patrol!
Patrol indeed!--but whom? No doubt the primary mission is in keeping these hoomans from surreptitiously making off with "their" estate, yes? ;-)
at 13:18 it is a crocodile, obviously :D
Of course!
Possibly a very rare sighting of the little seen Avondile.
@@edtuckerartist there is crocodile in the uk?!
Your cats are so cute and 'canal boat wise' they know where their home is and thankfully always choose the correct side to jump to explore! x.
gosh how nice. you did look as though you relaxed through!
2 of the lovliest ladies that tour the locks. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks
Some really lovely countryside there ladies - I'm well jealous !!
Love the video and the river, but I like the cannel tow paths so one can get to villages and towns do keep enjoying the journey I don’t think anything puts the lovely cats off
I love the canal tow paths too
Nice to see you. It seamed like you were traveling thru Massachusetts, USA - all the same towns along the coast, It always amazes me how they came so far to settle here and named their new town location after the one left behind. XOX
I love watching your travels. Thank you for making them, it helps feel like I'm going places even when I'm.stuck at home :)
Best music. Good job! You both are in are hearts here in the US.
Thanks for the new video. Very beautiful area with my favorite trees. Like your cat too. Happy cruising.
always happy to see what you two can show us.
Wow nice video scenery stunningeat vlog..... best wishes Ken and Christine
Love the music girls, who is it? Xx
If your going anywhere near Bideford Worcestershire. Be aware they have scaffolding up on the bridge end arches. I was there last weekend. Still enjoying and jealous.
CANNUT believe how BOOTIFUL!!!
Thanks for sharing such a lovely cruise. Also good to see all 4 of you happy and well.
Hello from Cincinnati Ohio usa. I enjoyed riding along. All the best!
Thanks once again for letting me ride along. I don't know where I would have moored, but I suspect David, having found your perfectly suitable overnighter, would have continued on until he found something not quite as nice.
Looked like a Croc to me! Lovely video as always. I'm all caught up now I believe. Take care x
I didn't notice anything strange about the bridge arches except the one you went through was very well marked.
When I saw the bit of wood it immediately made me think of an iguana. I saw a beautiful igauna on my way home from shopping yesterday.
Thanks for sharing your journey.
That was a lovely cruise along the river Avon....stay safe....thanks for sharing
What a lovely cruise! Thanks for sharing.
Lovely scenery and cool music :-)
Thanks for the smashing Vlog guys I did enjoy it. I think the tree looked like a snapping turtle.
Great vid as usual ladies ... yes it’s a frog ... bloody big one too ... loving the views
Thanks for a lovely afternoon Cruise
Really pretty scenery! Thanks for sharing!
Love sharing the journey with you two too.
What a lovely relaxing and we'll put together video. Can wait until a new one comes out. Thanks for your time sharing
Lovely videos wish I lived on a narrow boat myself so peaceful 😁
My cat Fidget heard your cat meowing so he had to try to talk to your cat. It was funny to watch. I wonder what he was trying to say to your cat.
My cat went up to the tv and was looking for Alice and Munchy behind the screen. I'll try to send a picture.
What a glorious day!! I never want the vlogs to end, but this journey was so stunning I have to watch again. Just cant thank you enough for taking us along!
Thanks for sharing. I enjoy your videos very much.

Lovely to find time to catch up with your journey along the Avon. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. Very pretty cruise x
That log definitely looked like a frog! Lovely vlog and I loved Kath’s narration. I also loved Alice the safety monitor! X
Glad to see the cats are keeping a good eye on things.
Another lovely video ladies, looks a wonderful stretch of canal and the cats are literally living their best life 👍🏻
fantastic video again girls.family members have a caravan at harvington .so know the area well ..hopefully were you moored up you went to see the old mill which is on the island .all intact but needs plenty of TLC.to restore it..Think if you had just gone round the corner to the next lock the mooring would have been better . keep the blogs coming.one day i will get to say hello if you come back to knowle locks again.
That log kind of looked like a Goanna , which is a kind of monitor lizard I sometimes see hanging out near rivers in Australia.
I am enjoying your trip along the Avon River. Looks delightful!
Great blog as always, the Avon long distance path sounds very tempting

Thank you for your vlogs. We’re cat people love seeing how they are on the “cut”.
Thanks Gals for sharing such a wonderful cruise bringing me aboard "LAZY DAYS", as it is here, ... helps remind one of life on the canals again Did you hear about the three sailors and the midshipman.... Good.
The music mix was perfect for this chill out video.
Thanks
I love it at Harvington lock. I have spent many days blacking boats for other people in the dry dock just over that bridge.
The dry dock used to be the original river lock before it was replaced with the new one you just used.
Glad your enjoying our beautiful river Avon
Thanks for sharing that. It's nice to learn of some of the changes that have been made.
Such a beautiful journey indeed! You both are very lucky! Oh and the bridge has different size arches, both in height and design! Have fun and please keep the videos coming!
Me and my girlfriend like watching these videos together we only just recently found your channel but we're enjoying it a lot :)
The scene at about 9:50 into this blog would make a beautiful print.
Such a pleasure to watch. Ty for another great vlog.
Brilliant....love the cats, they seem so happy......stay safe ladies...xx
Thank you will do
We did that bit of The Avon on our first ever narrowboat holiday, it must be very nice because we hired 5 more time before buying our boat in 2015. Don't remember that much as it was 2006.
Have you been been back since?
@@TheNarrowboatExperience not that bit yet, were going to go there this year but no motor & covid stuffed that. Maybe next year!
Hi ladies from Oklahoma! It’s always a joy to watch ur vids!!!! Luv luv luv the scenery!
Thanks so much
Sitting with a lovely pint of Guinness and watching the scenery really like the caps ladies, well I’ll. watch until the end and then I’ll have to make my darling wife her tea as she is working today but as I make all the meals it’s no hardship and there’s nothing nicer than someone enjoying the meals that you serve up
great vlog. The pile looked like a New Zealand Tuatara lizard.
Sue O'Keefe agree with Sue
Keep at it girls.. A big love from New Zealand. Xx.
I really enjoy your vlog. This one in particular. Loved the focus on the kitties at the end. My wife loves the cats as well. Glad to see it when they approve of your mooring.

Love the commentary, reminds me a little of how "Ask the Leyland Brothers", did their voice overs. Great video.
Amazing vlog beautiful scenery thank you girls.
love your cats and both of you
Love that you share so willingly 👍✌️😊🙏🏼
Hi girls it is so good to see your lovely country after lockdown I go wish I was there as well to enjoy
Glad you enjoyed. Hope you are well.
The Narrowboat Experience yes I have being well after being in hospital for a week 5 weeks ago and watching the videos made it better
We are at an Airbnb and just watched you on the big screen ♥️👍😀. Lovely 🖖
It is very relaxing watchma the video
Just !!! another wonderful video the English countryside is so beautiful and the cats behaving so well
Thank you
I'm abit later watching today. Always enjoy my Sunday vlog.
I like the 3 single ladies Annamarie. I'm with Kath, not heard it b4 in that rhyme but I'd wouldn't mind if 3 single ladies came along for me, especially if one had a narrowboat.😂
I ❤️ watching your kitties. Beautiful scenery too.
I thought the thing on the weeds looked like a small iguana. Love kaths humour with the number of boats and you tube watchers lol.
I love that cats have to chat with you about things - I assume their opinions.
Our cats are very opinionated.
Lovely little journey , I thought it looked like a frog too !
Lovely vlog. Really like the new narrative style. I think it may have been a distant relative of the Loch Ness Monster????? Hugs to you both and the kitties 🇨🇦💕
Very nice blog, well at long last after many months of hard work, we have taken NB Dogs Allowed out on the G&S for three small trips. One day we might make it to the Avon. Will need a bathroom and bedroom before then🤣
Was able to watch today, but not this afternoon. Stay safe, Ladies, and be careful.
Lovely video, quite charming. In my opinion the 'what does it look like' reminded me of an alligator. I look forward to the next one.
Glad you enjoyed it
A relaxing trip in the summer.
13:15 thought of a Beaver.
That bow deck looks really precarious. I appreciate you get more room inside but I wouldn't fancy standing on there in some deep locks that I've been through where you pass your rope through cables in lock walls.
Great vlog again , I like the subscribe point :)
Wonderful : ) ...thank you
Hey Girl’s nice to see you guys you take care..❤️🙏👍☮️✌️

Good afternoon girls, and lovely to see your beautiful smiles again!
There seemed to be an awful lot of junk in the Avon, dead trees, and other debris, causing restrictions!
But beautiful scenery! Button says 'Hi!' to you all!
Stay safe! :-)
Yes, you do have to keep your wits about you
That looks a lovely place to cruise got to put it on my to do list as it's not too far for me. Thanks to your inspiration I have finally installed a diesel heater on the boat so I have heat throughout so its brilliant and has set me up for some all year cruising. Even have a vent on the deck to keep me warm when steering. Cheers guys take care. Alan x
That sounds great. We recommend the trip too - just watch the weather as apparently the river levels change with little warning.
My friends and I moored at Bidford bridge on a Sunday and watched all the cabin cruisers parading up and down the river .Two of them tried to use the navigation arch at the same time!
It's a great spot to sit and watch the boats go by.
Thank you for making me laugh out loud! "Kat's gone all prudish!" Cheers! DonP
