Great vlog! Thanks for pretending not to be scared when I was slightly freaking out at the front and thanks for coming along for the ride! Hope to see you soon, Jo
Love this 4:15 "...OMG...feel it..., I would not recommend this if you get seasick." (slight pause, then a very concerned look) "Does David get seasick?" LOL
Wonderful! I've also watched the other two vlogs about this trip and all three were so enjoyable. I would very much like to take this journey someday. Thanks for bringing us along! I look forward to your next video
Magic! A very different journey. Nice to watch the boat reacting so well in some serious water too. Thanks for sharing. Will have to watch the others' vlogs tomorrow. I'm sure they will have captured another interesting angle on the trip. Cheers.
We watched all three Vlogs. Different cameras, different views, different people. *It worked* We really enjoyed doing all three Vlog's in the same time period. You four have to do this type cruising again......... Thank you for allowing us in on your adventure. 👍👍👍
Really enjoyed the video, as I always do. It looked like the most amazing day ! You get such a different perspective of life from the water. Thanks for another great vlog.
I know you are at the limits of your craft but I could not help laughing when you said "it's like going to sea". Great video, loved the scenery and the presentation!
Sorry I’m late getting to this vlog but I’ve been catching up. Funny but I used to catch the 65 bus from Surbiton to Ealing many many years ago when I was a first year apprentice at a Training College. Dread to think how long ago! Loved the vlog and would loooove to do that journey.
This was another brilliant vlog once again from you. Loved how you caught the terror and excitement of being up front and so close to the “action” I remember my first rough cross of Breydon Water in the Norfolk Broads. Thought I’d made a terrible mistake and I was about to reenact the Titanic 😂 but once I realised the boat wasn’t sinking and I was still making progress I relaxed and began to really enjoy the waves. Keep up the great work Lorna, seeing you smile so happily really does make the days seem just a little brighter 😀
Yours is the 2nd Vlog I've watched on this journey and it was great to see it from a different position. Come on be brave after the chop from Limehouse to Battersea, you all hade a wonderful cruise the will get even better for Jo & Micheal. Will watch their's next and hopefully lots more of their trip onwards up the Thames. I lived on the Thames at Wraysbury and had a great time, evening trips up to Windsor or down to Runnymede for a meal or just chilling out on deck with a G&T, ducking as the planes flew overhead into Heathrow. Just one point, make sure all scuppers and decks are clear of debris before setting off, don't want the pump or drain aways clogging up. Safe boating.
Amazing binge watching the three vlogs, same thing different perspectives. Lorna I think it was definitely wilder up front. Thank you for sharing your experience :)
I'm gradually catching up on various peoples' vlogs and it's great to see how much cross-over there is in the You Tube narrowboat community. In more practical terms, I can see a good case for ordering a vertical-stemmed barge-type bow with a bit of a shear....that is, if a new boat was an option, and you wanted to cruise on tidal waters.
How exciting was that?! Was so surprised when you said you were starting THAT far down the Thames - and although I guess that water was quite calm, being only a foot or two above the water and so solid i think i would've been squealing my head off having it come splashing up like that. Congratulations all round
Hi guys,I love the banter,it makes me laugh,there's great camaraderie between all of you,that lock gate looks so scary, While you are waiting for the gate to open,as for the water,it's so turbulent,rocking your narrowboat,from side to side, Did you all get a bit nauseous,on your boat trip,
i watch your video and Cruisingthecut video at the same time to see how much would sink up it was funny seeing some of the same thing but with two peoples point of views and the two different styles of vlogging shooting the same thing and the same time
Great video thanks watching 3 videos on the same journey with different people and different views was fun. Am looking at getting a narrow boat but won’t be doing the Thames 😳👍
A big wave (no pun) and hello to you! I just subscribed to your channel after watching David's (Cruising the Cut) and Minimal List's version of the Thames's, was extremely curious about your version of the experience. And it's confirmed .. everyone was terrified lol! Look at that (bloody hell) current almost throwing the boat onto the lock gate at 2:28 .. oh God indeed! "Oh fog" was what you said?
Great, totally different experience from the bow of the boat. Would the tide have effected ye where ye were on the Thames. Enjoyed and will watch again.
Do you hose the boats down when you come out of salt water. We used pull the boats out after running in salt and since our engines were cooled by exterior water we would also have to flush them. Still ended up with pitted aluminum and rust spots. Salt ir played havoc with screws nuts and bolts mounting hardware also.
Nice video! I have one question: Is it possible to swap out the small motor for a very substantial V-8, with 6-blade hi-pitch propeller? The reason I ask is, these narrow boats appear too slow. Thanks in advance.
Can you please tell me, where you got the map of bridges from? I would like to see all bridges up as far as Marlow, or downstream from Marlow. I googled but couldn't find it thank you.
Who said this during David's vlog ..."I'm worried that I am not worried about it ." My take on what you really meant "I'm not worried about it because I can swim and my boat is not at risk ." Ok , we will accept the excuse that excitement over rides many emotions sometimes ..... Just subscribed to your channel . There are a lot more splashes in your vlog , it's like watching some of the scenes from the movie Titanic .......... All you needed to do was stand on the bow and reach for the stars . Or was that Buzz in Toystory ?
I'm a Kiwi and have never been to England however I think I've seen the Millennium Bridge before (7:30). Is it the bridge that Voldermort or he who shall not be named and the death eaters wrecked in Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince?
I can't really hear you over the choppy waves there but overall good video and coverage of the entire experience, I'll catch up with the rest of your vlogs real soon, keep up the good work!
A simply amazing video doing Narrowboating on the Thames. Love Narrowboating but stuck in Detroit.
Wonderful Lorna. This film brought back so many memories of my life in London. I love all your films, please keep making them. X
Lovely vlog Lorna and happy seeing all of you vloggers making vlog along the same narrowboat and routes. Kudos to you all.
Great vlog! Thanks for pretending not to be scared when I was slightly freaking out at the front and thanks for coming along for the ride! Hope to see you soon, Jo
Love this 4:15 "...OMG...feel it..., I would not recommend this if you get seasick." (slight pause, then a very concerned look) "Does David get seasick?" LOL
We loved this. You got some awesome shots. What a day!!! This will be such a good resource for anyone doing that trip.
Thank you very much ! i'd viewed David's, and then Jo & Michael's and yours is delicious Icing on a beautiful triple layered Cake...
Cheers !
I follow David, and you are so funny! I wish you the best from NY!
Hi London Boat Girl what an amazing video I just loved it. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Cheers Jo
Wonderful! I've also watched the other two vlogs about this trip and all three were so enjoyable. I would very much like to take this journey someday. Thanks for bringing us along! I look forward to your next video
Great viewing Lorna, i binge watched this with Minimal List, and Cruising The Cut vlogs ... huge thnx to all for sharing! Davie xx
Brilliant vlog Lorna especially from a view from a boat you really don't realise how powerful the Thames can be.
My 2 favorite narrowboat tubers.totally different styles for this one from each of you.
Magic! A very different journey. Nice to watch the boat reacting so well in some serious water too. Thanks for sharing. Will have to watch the others' vlogs tomorrow. I'm sure they will have captured another interesting angle on the trip. Cheers.

Really enjoyed the video, as I always do. It looked like the most amazing day ! You get such a different perspective of life from the water. Thanks for another great vlog.
Exiting stuff! Makes a change from the usual tranquil waters of the canal system 👍🏻
I know you are at the limits of your craft but I could not help laughing when you said "it's like going to sea". Great video, loved the scenery and the presentation!
Fantastic video, even David was good! The whole video has to be one of my best, thank you so much. Cheers

Really enjoyed this .... nothing better than a sunny day on the Thames :-)
Yes, just watched all three vlogs and good to see them from three different perspectives. Pucka Trip !

Brilliant,nice to see another view of the same journey
Love it
You when past my hometown of Putney & Battersea. Hope out had a great time.
Great vlog. It's been good seeing three different accounts of such a fantastic journey.
Hi that was great thank you🍎
Came over from Davids Channel. So watching from Florida USA. Even though I am tech from Sweden.
Brilliant! Like watching the gates of doom open at Limehouse. All the times I have been on the Thames, always wanted to go via narrowboat.
Great job on this! Big fan of David's blogs, and subscribed right away to your channel!
Very cool! so nice to see London by longboat! looking forward to your next video!✌😎
gonzoman66 adventures longboat? They are not vikings! It's a narrowboat.
that was great, looking forward to see more of your adventures
looking good there David
This looks very scary . Boats don't scare me, but knowing a person home is at risk is terrifying. Great video though
Amazing binge watching the three vlogs, same thing different perspectives. Lorna I think it was definitely wilder up front. Thank you for sharing your experience :)
Great video. You made me laugh when you were in the lock. Thanks

Just watched Minimalist's version well done on you as well! Just got a Pawgram from George
...he is very proud of all.
Whoa! Awesome ride.

Was so surprised when you said you were starting THAT far down the Thames - and although I guess that water was quite calm, being only a foot or two above the water and so solid i think i would've been squealing my head off having it come splashing up like that.

While you are waiting for the gate to open,as for the water,it's so turbulent,rocking your narrowboat,from side to side,
Did you all get a bit nauseous,on your boat trip,
That would be an amazing change compared to travelling in narrow canals. I’d be pretty nervous with those big boats zooming past
i watch your video and Cruisingthecut video at the same time to see how much would sink up it was funny seeing some of the same thing but with two peoples point of views and the two different styles of vlogging shooting the same thing and the same time

Your vid came up as a suggestion having watched CC's - great waves 😆
Great, totally different experience from the bow of the boat. Would the tide have effected ye where ye were on the Thames. Enjoyed and will watch again.
Your views Lorna and David's views were fantastic but I felt for you at the bow
Great vid - nice screaming effects added in - oh that wasnt effects - it was you ACTUALLY screaming - lol. Great watch , thanks for posting
Do you hose the boats down when you come out of salt water. We used pull the boats out after running in salt and since our engines were cooled by exterior water we would also have to flush them. Still ended up with pitted aluminum and rust spots. Salt ir played havoc with screws nuts and bolts mounting hardware also.
klayofthemystics salt water doesn't make it this far upriver on the Thames.
Love the RMT Cap 💋
Splish, splash, I was taking a ... cruise on the Thames. In the beginning, you could have used more freeboard. Certainly an adventure!
Thanks great vlog.
My partner and I love this TH-cam video and wished it was us.
i added you because i follow Minimal List and love narrow boats i guess i a gongoozler cheers
Lovely video,
Phil Sheard,
Birmingham
nothing like a shot of adrenaline to get you going. all great videos.
Nice video! I have one question: Is it possible to swap out the small motor for a very substantial V-8, with 6-blade hi-pitch propeller? The reason I ask is, these narrow boats appear too slow. Thanks in advance.
brian belton you can put huge engines in if you want, but the max speed on a canal is 4mph so it’s not usually a good idea
Can you please tell me, where you got the map of bridges from? I would like to see all bridges up as far as Marlow, or downstream from Marlow. I googled but couldn't find it thank you.

Peter Dorn yes that’s the bridge
@@lornajaneadventures Thanks, that made my day... or night as I watched it.
Definitely looked a bit choppier from your perspective than from David's.
Is London boat girl called that because she lives there, surely the only place she could have been born is Belgravia, soho Kensington or similar
Fabulous x
Does it cost to go through any locks in the UK? Thanks
Only a very small number, on waterways that aren’t managed by CRT. It could be a lock fee or more often, a licence fee for that waterway
I can't really hear you over the choppy waves there but overall good video and coverage of the entire experience, I'll catch up with the rest of your vlogs real soon, keep up the good work!
Lorna never saw you so happy.
nice goin m8! before i forget, good luck crossing that ditch to where they speak with a different accent an its not irish :)
Where was David when you were on the river? Is he really your husband?
Nice one.
_Crewing The Thames_ with cohort _Cruising The Cut_
That looked like a elevator drop in the lock.
It all was sounds soooo much better and sexyeeeer when a female say David hehehe but my Nick name is jag 😁 owell much love to yeee all 😘👍
Holy mother of god xx
Raymond C I knew you’d enjoy!
