Aww, Rufus & Dupes are just adorable ❤️
They say hello and thank you! 🐕🐰
Oh my gosh...I used to work 12 hour shifts..waking up in the dark and going home in the dark resisted with me so much....its tough I know but the early morning sunlight is truly amazing.
Sorry should read..resonated with me...
Wow the fuel boats do double duty as icebreaker also. 😊
The drone footage is so good. It really adds to your already fantastic film making - and that’s how the vlogs feel, like beautifully crafted mini films that are so much fun to watch 😊
Was eating my lunch while watching , so found the loo scenes interesting haha. We have been there and doen the same thing, its not something you have to think about on dry land of course. Sorry you were so unwell while it was so cold Amy. Spring just around the corner now. Keep going guys. Your both so upbeat no matter what life throws your way.
Great drone action guys! Absolutely love seeing the ice. We don’t get that cold down here 🇦🇺 so I find it fascinating seeing everything frozen, the thickness of the ice and hearing all the crunching. Thank you 😊
Wes, you are nothing if not resourceful - not sure I've ever seen a Thetford cassette flushed with empty wine bottles and a coffee cup before 🤔🤣🤣. Rufus and doops definitely have the right idea - hot water bottle and the fireplace are definitely the best spots. Drone footage at the beginning looking very good as well 👍
Maybe Tomorrow.....you said that several times in this vlog, that's our boat !!😂😂😂
How you havent got a composting loo I dont know , its the best investment I ever made on my boat.
Great video. Love that you are using the drone. Sorry you were sick but hope you are fully recovered Amy. Wes and The Bears were extremely creative with the Elsan cleaning. So nice that your family came to spend time, and you had game night with family and The Bears! Happy cruising.
😊🤗 Kathy
Hello ☺ Good that you soak the bread for the ducks/swans, they can't digest dry bread or crackers properly. And Wes you should wear gloves doing the grotty cassette jobby 😂! Sending love and light to you both and the fur babies 🐰🐶 xx
So glad you both are moving again. Amy i am so happy your feeling better. Getting out in the sunshine walking clearing out those lungs does the body good. Happy water ways.
Very resourceful cassette cleaning solution....I hope we would have thought to do that in that situation! Poor Amy, what a horrible cold, glad you're better now!
You're soo funny I.e the canal has defrosted....you mean thawed 😅 Grace from Belfast x
Hi Amy and Wes. That ice was super thick. Glad you were able to cruise and get water in the end. Looks like you had a lovely time with family 🥰Take care. Nick
a few years ago we did a floating market at Berkhamsted and had a good day trading, but it snowed overnight & the canal froze! We were stuck for a while, the fuel boats couldn't even get through as the locks were covered in ice & it was much too slippery underfoot. During that time I had my car broken into there was nothing of value in the car, it was just a pain! Mind you there are lots of worse places to be stuck, it was a short walk into the town, and we were moored on the edge of Waitrose car park!
I'm normally the kind of person that says no to meds when I'm feeling ill, but for a cold or flu you gotta give lemsimp cold and flu capsules a go, i woke up Friday feeling like a cold was coming on, took them and again Saturday, was fine Sunday
Great video, I watched it on my way home from work earlier. I loved the fact you called me Shore Tars! Made me chuckle ;)
haha sorry! we just remember your hat from crick and couldn’t not 😂👏🏻
Well done getting stuck lol
Hi from Canada! Sorry to hear that ice is holding up your plans. On the weekend my brother told me that the lake he was ice fishing on had 76 cm thick ice…plenty good to drive on with a vehicle.
That's crazy! Cant imagine it that thick, would love to visit Canada one day!
thanks for watching 😊🥶
OMG I couldn't with the cassettes, I think it's time to just go composting toilet lol
It's March now, so hopefully no more ice expeditions.😂
Spring is in the air,but still very cold. 💚
Another hello from Canada! Glad you’re out and on the move again, and that you’re feeling better, Amy! What is the card game that you were playing in the pub?! I’m intrigued!
Ice ice baby
All right stop
Collaborate and listen
Winter is back with a brand new mission.
Something grabs a hold of the boat tightly
No flow it’s like a freezer daily and nightly.
Will it ever stop?
Yo, I don’t know.
But there sure is a lot of
Ice ice baby
Yeah, ice ice baby.
❤Awh everything wrapped up in one, ice, coal delivery, the Animals, poop disposable and then family and escape room and cruising 😊
Another good vlog ,glad your feeling so much better amy stay warm guys,we are having 80degree weather today in san antonio texas but i do miss the english weather
Handy tip when frozen in ...... run your engine in gear for a couple of minutes in forward, then a cpl of mins in reverse. This will break up the ice around your boat. It will aid movement of boats passing you, there'll be smaller ice sheets to scratch your own paintwork. But more importantly, it's good for the wildlife around you, giving them a patch of water rather than ice, & it's less tempting for dogs & cats to walk on. Just saying from experience of 25+ years of winter cruising with a cat & dog.
Aww - cosy times!! I love Rufus's jumper 🥰🥰🥰
One really get those poop experiences in frost.. 😐 Doops and Rufus go so well together, that is amazing. Yes, old rabbits are a bit sad to watch (I have an old rabbit too), they get stiff in their backs and cannot clean themselves so well. I believe that my rabbit is sad due to not being able to jump around any longer. All the best. 🤩
Right off the bat, I saw that sea gull nearly misses the drone. That would have sucked.
At least spring is on the way!
I'd soon be runnin-apoo bizz on canals. So many cassettes to empty🚉💩
Good 0:28 you getting betters hope what a frizen time you had all tc now luv from the oldies 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Awww that was so thick the ice. Loved how u all kept warm. Best wishes.
Hello 👋 from John E.May from USA 🇺🇸
i have covid at the moment guys and i have been so so ill with it. and it happened so fast too. at 11am on thursday morning i felt a weird feeling in my throat then started to feel cold. i thought the heating was off but it was on... by half 11 i was shivering all over and by 12 my entire boddy hurt including my skin.... i carried on the cleaning i had started and folded the massive laundry mountain and then by 5 i was in bed. i stayed in bed for 3 days only getting up to eat shower and use the toilet. i am finally feeling a little better now on day 7 😢
My biggest worry for you was, were you near a chippy. I can't imagine you surviving 7 days without chips.
Hope you get a staff discount from the fuel boat now
Safe travels that’s thick ice wow
couldn't believe it! thank you for watching! 😊
This reminds me of the Franklin expedition in 1847 (?), only, for those poor souls and the pets/ animals that were on board, things sadly didn't come to a happy ending. They really had it rough.
Feel better soon!
❤
oh gosh, hadn't heard of that before! Yeah, we were a lot safer on our 4ft deep canal haha!
Thank you for watching 😊
Your gorgeous mother made the most beautiful ladies! What a sunning family! 😍
Glad you are out of the ice! Enjoy your videos guys! Just wondering if you are an NC State alum? My brother taught there.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
???OK, when you’re continuous cruisers, what does that mean as far as how far do you have to go each time you move???
💜💙💚
Can I just ask. How does the CRT actually know of you have moved on every 2 weeks? Do you have to inform them of your location every time you move, or do the employ someone as a canal traffic warden? 😂
they do actually have wardens 😅 they’re called spotters and they go up and down the towpath and log the boats in their area. They usually cycle the route 😊
😂brilliant, thank you. ❤
Why can't the flue boat do bread and milk
What is the card game please?
What does it cost to live on a boat
Survived? Ffs 😂😂
