    Enjoyed the video 👍
    Have you ever thought about getting one of those small compact fold up walking tread mills.
    Pat could put it in front of the tiller and walk the canals like Eileen does but whilst steering the boat 👍

    A lovely cruise is always enjoyable to watch. Sweet picture of Pat having a kip with your grandchild.
    Ellesmere Port boat museum is looking a bit sad at the moment probably because of Covid and a lack of money.
    Thanks for the Vlog. All the best. Stephen

    Another nice Vlog, but that stretch of canal, seems very overgrown, with
    a few rusted hulks which I'm sure could have been restored .
    Looki g forward to the next Vlog !
    Stay safe !

      The stretch from Chester to Ellesmere is sadly underused. It also sad to see so many rusted boats, some were CRT boats! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

    A just cruising vlog seems a long time since we had one and it was lovely.....pleased you got to see family at last great photo of Pat snoozing with grandchild and so many water lilies on this canal...very surprising to see a large ship over the rooftops as you moored up

    Must have been lovely to see the family after such a long time. Pat looked as if he was helping out alright. Eileen, you must walk a million miles in a year, keep it up, you're looking great. Thanks for the vlog, I've been watching the olympics to fill our winter days. NZs doing ok, but we're a bit small to mix with the big boys and girls. Take care.

    • @ournarrowboatquest4894

      We haven’t had a chance to keep up with what’s going on on the Olympics apart from the occasional news reports! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

    I never realised until this vlog that Eileen is a tiller girl ! And Pat you are so right about retiring l know there are ‘nt enough hours in the day!

  • @borderreiver90
    @borderreiver90 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You must get up to the Lancaster canal and cruise it...no locks unless you go down to Glasson Dock....time Pat did some walking to keep fit and let Eileen steer the boat for a while......

    • @ournarrowboatquest4894
      @ournarrowboatquest4894  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We’ve done the Lancaster Canal th-cam.com/play/PLaPoGUm1NN2t8O7Zd8DLnWAlXYr9dayxV.html, loved it, especially at Glasson docks. Agree with you about me driving the boat more often, I really need the practice! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

    Nice cruise . Mr negative here again , i see Pat managed to hit the tied up CRT barges and also i think you need a blacking as the sides of the hull are very beat up . I know it's hard to keep the hull black with all the locks and moor ups etc . I love your vlogs by the way :-)

    • @ournarrowboatquest4894
      @ournarrowboatquest4894  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      🤣😂, hello Mr Negative 👋, Pat didn’t actually hit the CRT barge, as it wasn’t tied up very well it banged the bank as we passed. We are hoping to patch up the blacking when we get to a suitable mooring spot! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍
