Thanks for introducing us to your friend Gabby. She’s such a lovely woman; you two look like you’re going to have some fantastic adventures together.🙋🏻👩🏻🦳🐶
How gorgeous is Gabby’s van. Love it! I’m glad she enjoyed learning on the Rum Wench - gives her a good idea of the reality of boating, especially the cold and darkness of winter. Hopefully she will be able to join you again
Love the content and your vitality, gabbi is just the pal we all want ,her stories and yours would be worth their weight in gold, thank you again for the insight, from Tim in the canaries.
You are so welcome, and deserve much better. I truly look forward to every Thursday, as a man in my sixties... you have the best TH-cam channel in the world. Edited: it did make me cry, you reading it. Thank you once again. Jay
What an adventure full life of travel for Gabby. Good to hear she came down under to visit New Zealand and has seen our North and South Islands. Looking forward to your 2025 adventures, Heidi.
Dear gorgeous Heidi and little Bonnie How wonderful to watch your vlog. You are an absolutely ray of sunshine, and we are blessed to watch you every Thursday. Love Jackie and Mark Rogers and our beloved doggies Cotton Tail and Benji Banana xxx
Thanks Again! We love sharing our Thursdays with You and Bonny!! Was nice to meet your friend Gabby and to share in her adventures as well. Thanks for the ditty and having a good time with all the friends and family!! Hope you were able to see yeas soon!! 😁😁
What a Lovely way to start a brand New Year, With Heidi and Bonny cruising again, It's so wonderful to be taken on Your cruises and learning about New places along the way, I had a little drinkie too, so Cheers me hearties and looking forward to the next one, As always, Thank You both so much, for taking us along.
Hi Heidi, so you're back to being A Teacher again and what a lovely lass Gabby was as pupil. Her van was like her history of traveling around the word, very adventurous. Been mjssing posting Since the new year as. I've had a nasty chest cold so all I've been doing id sleeping and not ding anything much. The weather has been quite cold and snowy but today we got to 2c. So yet anther uniqe type of post ,you always seem to come up with bright ides that your channel so good to watch. Bye for now luvz ya lots XXX
Happy New Year , you lot! 🥂i do agree with Jay: thursday evening i get my Martini ready and need an update on The Rum Wench or i go mad! Great to meet Gabby proper! Love her already: if you have a Ginger Lemon tea at the ready, you can’t go wrong with me! She has a brilliant van! I loved all the wood and textiles she collected! She’s def a keeper, Heidi! Have a great week(end)! ❤🍵☕️🍹🥂🍺♥️
You ladies are an inspiration to us all, it takes guts and determination to do what you ladies do and the way you live your lives.😊 Gabby has a 1st class teacher in you Heidi I'm sure she'll be back cruising pretty soon. Happy and safe travels to you both. 😃
Love watching your videos with you and your lovely dog Bonnie, shes a gorgeous wee dog. You show us good and bad times on the water that shows us more like what your every day life on the canal is like. I hope you keep producing your videos, stay safe.
Thanks again for taking us along! Warned up to a bit below 0C. Last Friday It was -35C when we left our Contra Dance Gig so it feels balmy. Scooping snow today and tomorrow to get ready for the next round Stay warm young Lady.
What an awesome friend you've got there, reminds me of my mum, she went all over the world on her own to weird and wonderful places(Antarctica, Mongolia etc) as well. Hopefully we see more of you and her on some fantastic adventures. Thanks for the vid and have a great week
That was a great ditty! I’m glad you are safe, I was worried when I heard the Bridgewater canal had serious problems, and was collapsing. I don’t know if that’s near you.
Ditty was just perfect. Have you ever watched how Bonny will check both sides of the boat when you under bridges as if she's checking for clearance, and she is defiantly supervising when you moor up, watching how close you are to the banking. Gabby's a good Yorkshire woman like myself she seems to live a blessed life -subtitles LOL. Wild Atlantic way is nice but there are many nice places in Ireland; well the damn countries covered in snow and ice and freezing cold now but summer and autumn can be magic.
Nice to see you exercising your teaching skills, Heidi. I have always said that no really good teachers, have ever been taught those skills. They are born into us. Some can do it, others cannot. Sadly many of the lesser teachers, struggle through, and leave their students lacking the knowledge they needed so badly. Your boat now seems to be in fine fettle, no problems with the gearbox, and the sound of that engine gets better every week!! I love to hear it shutting down too, as it slowly ticks to a halt....then that silence, that is music!. Robbie Cummins has another nice engine on his boat, both of you being traditionalists of course. Have a good year cruising after the service, and take care on the icy decks!! John xx
That shot at 25min with the smoke drifting out of your boats chimney is straight off a calendar. Also liked the shot of the closed lock gates clothed in green. You are an oasis of peace in a stressful day. Thank You.
Belated Happy New Year Heidi, I hope your trip to the Peak District was a lovely break and also nice for you to be back on the Rum Wench again. It was great to meet Gabby and watch her do really well on the locks…. her van is brilliant too! Her enthusiasm reminds me of you, so you’ll definitely have some fun when you go on any travels together. Looking forward to hearing your plans for 2025, take care and keep toast warm in this freezing weather ♨️❤️🐾😊
Great vid. Love your first mate. Ready to jump right in. As an ambulance driver she obviously has a good head on her shoulders . Keep up the great work.
Hi Heidi HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU BONNY AND YOUR MUM Bonny is really good on the top of the boat love to see her ears ,I follow Julie and Martin also now they are like you very good take care wonderful lady love your vlogs, only trouble we want more take care xx❤
Thank you for another wonderful, action packed, Bonny filled video. Lots of love to you and Bonny, your mum and dad and all the family. I hope you all have a wonderful new year, with many more adventures to come. Take care and keep yourselves safe, happy and warm. With love and hugs, 🙂🐿️🌈❤️ [xöx eve xöx]
Great vlog Heidi, I love that stretch of the cut and love middlewich so much, that lay-by is a perfect stopover and I stay there whenever I’m up that way in my ‘van 🥰
Fantastic, loved the lock lesson, looks like your friend had fun and her van looks really cool. I love tents and camping pods. I once got a little complacent camping in North Norfolk in 40mph gusts and spent the whole night keeping my old dome tent upright omg! Being in the outdoors is amazing and can't wait for these freezing temperatures to do one 😁
Hello from Northern New Jersey, USA. It was nice of you to give Gabby a taste of narrowboat life. I look forward to the next adventure. Be well and stay safe.
Another great vLog. A lovely ditty from Jay, and although you didn't cruise that far, you were able to show Gabby a few of the tasks when living on the canals. Gabby, if you are reading this, don't be concerned about asking for help and/or advise, as the boating community is (for the most part) just like a large and friendly village. Heidi, when you get onto Oxfordshire feel free to give me a shout (I'll send you my phone number as a DM), as I can help (on Tuesdays) to run to the shops, laundrettes, and so on. I also have got you a (delayed) Christmas treat. Speaking of Christmas, did you know that there are only 25 letters in the Christmas alphabet? That is because there is no L! Take care, safe cruising, and keep up the great vLogs!
Nah then, ey up me duck. Hope you and the lovely Bonnie had a blessed Christmas and happy new year. Gabby seems like a reet nice lass and she's from God's country so that's already a massive thumbs up 👍
Happy New year Heidi and bonnie so glad to see you back to blogging again. Just want to wish you all the best of luck with your travel plans in your boat and campervan through the year of 2025. Looking forward to being able to see where you get to this year both on the boat and in your campervan.
Hello Captain Heidi and First mate Bonny. Welcome to 2025. You are a great teacher in the ways of the narrow boat. I have personally learned a lot. Best wishes for a new year and safe adventures. Always fun to tag along. 😊
Thanks for the intro to Gabby- there is a " great read" in her life story. A way to pay for her travels? Great to see you get a restful (bar mooring up) easy day that is so not solo boating. A happy suprise to see you on board Rhapsody in Blue for New Year celebrations🎉 And finally looking forward to my armchair adventures either on board or further afield with the van❤ Jan Adelaide
I hope you stay warm and safe Heidi, I bet you're glad you are not stuck on the Bridgewater canal (Breachwater canal). There was a troll I think on your Facebook post today trying to cause an argument with me about News channels and Vaccinations etc. It was uncalled for but I note it has now disappeared, thank you if you deleted that person's messages. ❤
Hello Heidi and Bonnie. Gabby seems like a great crew patient and willing to help you and to learn. You are an excellent teacher explaining what needs to be done and why. Unlike most men Ive had aboard my 35’ sailboat Gabby listens. In my experience, guys don’t take instructions well and think they know it all. Sorry guys. Joseph.
Thanks for the cruise Heidi, ur videography is just ace, lovely to meet Gabs...I've had a secret desire for u to meet a special someone to share life with, me and hubby have 38 years of bliss maybe not ur cup of tea but oh well I can hope right? Lol Hugs from me to you.
So pleased to see you are safe and nowhere near the Bridgewater breach. You know there is far more to doing locks, like where the bywash is, or which side paddle to open first as under currents can push the boat the other way. I have done 1,000s over man years. Please take care out there. Oh, bvthe way, Happy New Year to you and Bonny. I went to the first Glastonbury, it was free.
Of course and I’ve shown them in many videos when single handing myself all around the country and across the Mersey … it’s just no fierce bywashes on this stretch 😂
If i have not said it yet . Happy New Year to you and your dog . Good luck for the year . I am keeping an eye on the Bridge Water breach . As they are all stuck there for a time as the breach is so big and at the last look it was still falling in on its self .
Hello Heidi Mick from hull happy new year really enjoyed this episode hope you are both well and I will look forward to your next episode keep them coming xx😊😊😊
Be careful Heidi, you train up a new Mate too well and Capt Bonny may just have new First Mate and you will be a Rum serving wench at a canal tavern watching The Rum Wench sell away. LOL Great video.
Moored there a couple of months ago. I concreted in some chains and marked them with yellow paint on the edge, should it get windy. With the Bridgewater canal out of action, I guess you'll be heading back South, unless you're going to go through Manchester. Cheers for now.
I’m being blacked on the weaver in March …. Bridgewater out, bosley shut 😂 I’ve no idea as I can’t risk getting stuck the wrong side of a stoppage and not making my blacking appointment as I’ve already paid my deposit
I love the way Bonnies head popped up when you mentioned "ready for a cruise" she is so sweet, what do you think will your friend Gabby get a narrowboat of her own? 🛥 Oh and a Happy New Year.
She’s a pirate for sure! I knew when she asked for that rum! A pirates life for me for me!!! Hehehehe 🎉 And I do think of you as my friend across the ocean. ❤
Wonderful vlog as always Heidi ❤ love Gabby ❤ she’s had fabulous adventures too 😊 cheers to you both with my glass of red wine 🍷 (only drinking to keep warm honest😉😁) have a lovely week ❤xx
"She's from Yorkshire, so I'll put some subtitles on". - Love it.😂
😂😂 I’m from Cheshire, and people have enough problems understanding my accent 😂😂
Accent? What accent!
@@TheNarrowboatPirate I'm a Scouser so I'm saying nothing 🤣🤣

Great vlog well done to your friend I'm from north Wales t
Thank you Heidi for introducing us to your friend Gabby, such an interesting and lovely lady!
Thank you, hopefully she will come cruising again in the future 😃🏴☠️
Thanks for introducing us to your friend Gabby. She’s such a lovely woman; you two look like you’re going to have some fantastic adventures together.🙋🏻👩🏻🦳🐶
Yes, she may come cruising next summer, if she hasn’t got her own boat by then 😃
Gabbys van is brilliant, she’s very brave doing all that travelling on her own.
I know 😃🏴☠️❤️
How gorgeous is Gabby’s van. Love it! I’m glad she enjoyed learning on the Rum Wench - gives her a good idea of the reality of boating, especially the cold and darkness of winter. Hopefully she will be able to join you again
Yes, she loved it so hopefully she will get to cruise it next time 😊🏴☠️
You know it’s Thursday when we all get to see the lovely Heidi and Bonnie. It means one more day until the weekend officially begins.
Aww thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️
Love the content and your vitality, gabbi is just the pal we all want ,her stories and yours would be worth their weight in gold, thank you again for the insight, from Tim in the canaries.
Aww thank you 😄 and yes she has lots of stories 😄
Once a teacher, always a teacher regardless of the subject. And when you add passion for the subject, perfect 😅
Thank you! 😃
Lovely video, brings back belief in people and raises spirits in these times that are far from light 👍
lovely to meet Gabby, she is so much like you, with the love of travelling, and festivals, and living in her campervan and you on your boat.
Yes we do have a lot of similar interests 😃
Heidi, that made me so happy. I've got a few tears running down my face. Thank you Heidi, God bless you.
😂😂 thanks so much for the ditty 😊❤️🏴☠️
You are so welcome, and deserve much better. I truly look forward to every Thursday, as a man in my sixties... you have the best TH-cam channel in the world.
Edited: it did make me cry, you reading it. Thank you once again.

I hope so too! 😃🏴☠️

Very entertaining thank you. Your enthusiasm is a joy in chilly January.
Thanks very much 😊🥶🏴☠️
I love how Bon’s a proper narrowboat dog now, so good when you’re doing the locks. Happy New Year Heidi and Bon x
She loves it 😊🏴☠️❤️
I so much look forward to Thursday and your romps. Safe sailing in the New Year. Stay away from the Bridgewater!
That was a great ditty! I’m glad you are safe, I was worried when I heard the Bridgewater canal had serious problems, and was collapsing. I don’t know if that’s near you.
I’m about 9 miles away at the moment but all safe and sound, thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️

Fantastic, loved the lock lesson, looks like your friend had fun and her van looks really cool.
I love tents and camping pods.

Being in the outdoors is amazing and can't wait for these freezing temperatures to do one 😁

I hope you stay warm and safe Heidi, I bet you're glad you are not stuck on the Bridgewater canal (Breachwater canal).
There was a troll I think on your Facebook post today trying to cause an argument with me about News channels and Vaccinations etc. It was uncalled for but I note it has now disappeared, thank you if you deleted that person's messages. ❤
I get trolled all the time, just ignore them … some people just get off on being knobs xxx

Hi Heidi lucky Gabby getting some instructions from two experts. Stay safe Heidi saw on TH-cam about the Bridgewater canal breach, scary. Linda
Yes it’s terrible but luckily I’m about 9 miles away the Bridgewater 🏴☠️

Everything is ok watching your videos,if am stressed i just watch your world.
Thank you 🏴☠️
Moored there a couple of months ago. I concreted in some chains and marked them with yellow paint on the edge, should it get windy. With the Bridgewater canal out of action, I guess you'll be heading back South, unless you're going to go through Manchester. Cheers for now.
