It is so beautiful there. If I lived there I would find it hard to leave for sure. The Heather is just gorgeous. Gosh I can’t believe it has been 3 years since you were on Silver Fox. Time flies!
Loved the canal adventures, which is when I first started watching you. However, the ones you are doing now at the croft are just as exciting and interesting. You guys are so inspirational and I shall continue to watch you whatever you do!
You to have so much energy and enthusiasm it rubs off on everyone else. I will always support you whatever you choose to do. Keep well and safe. James.
Three years??? Wow! Time flies. Yes, I was a Silver Fox viewer. I miss watching your humor. I pop in every once in a while, but it really was shocking to me it has been 3 years. Congrats on your wedding!
Well, with Shaun saying HE will be building it, we know it will be a wood boat. Shaun sure knows his "wood". Can't wait to follow the build as I've been a want to be cabinet maker all my life. Perhaps you could put some of the needed tools and supplies on the Wish List.
Sean and Colin it's been a pleasure watching you from silver fox on the canal to the croft I think you myself you have more adventures where your at and I think Colin with his mental health finds it easier on the croft but whatever your endeavours I wish you both well
I truly have great admiration on how you guys live life. A lot of people find it hard to let go of the past and never move on and continually try to move backwards. I love how you lads are always on a forward path... holding past memories in great fondness but forever looking to the future. I am really looking forward to some really exciting future content!
The only time I will not watch you is when I am dead, I have missed several episodes due to me being in and out of hospitals so much, but it’s been like that all my life so nothing new for me. Take care my favourite couple.❤❤
Good Day, I am glad to get some clarification on what your dreams and plans are. I wish you all the best in your interesting endeavors. Have a wonderful weekend. Take care…
"I know what 8.2 inches looks like! 🤣🤣🤣 Loved the SLAPS!! 🥵 "Do you think we listen to you?" 🤥 😂😂😂 Let it all out, Shaun!! Bleep!! 👍 Watching this channel is fun, and I enjoy the way you choose to do it because there are always surprises!! What you guys get up to and how you go about your life on the croft is great. Thank you for sharing it with us!! Personally, I find it fascinating and often, very beautiful!! And I realize it is a lot of work and I appreciate that!! ❤❤❤ Chuck in Northern New England
Anyone who watches your vlog on a regular basis knows that you are both settled where you live and happy, so why would you sell up? 😂. It’s such a beautiful part of the world that you are in. Good luck with the boat etc 😎👍
You do seem to have such a rich and happy life. Bees, marmalade, animals, beautiful locale. I'm quite envious. And always eager to see what you're up to
Hmmmm.... Can't really recall when I started following you guys on TH-cam, but I joined you just prior to your building and launching SF. While I really enjoyed watching the canal cruising series, watching your transition to country living, especially in the Highlands, is also quite enjoyable. Interesting items (not a complete list though) - honey production; building up of your apiary; enclosure for Sherlock; your private walks into the woods discussing your mental health; drone shots of the highlands, durning the seasons. Wishing well with the wedding. May you have many fine years ahead of you. Cheers.....
I don’t care a whit for who, what, when, where or why. All that matters is that you guys are well grounded and happy! Do what you do and we will be happy for what you do. Enjoy…
Can't wait for the new boat to be built! I have missed your stories and history lessons. Is the new boat going to be as big as the original Silver Fox? She was a beautiful boat!! Best wishes for your wedding, hope to see some of your wonderful pics of the purple heather, good luck on the surgery, and waiting for the new build! Thank you!
I would really love it if I could bring my Kubota over and help with the railroad barn. Sadly, I don't thing that would work. Best of luck on the new boat and congratulations on the wedding. As Spock said, "Live long and prosper!".
I suppose it's all in how folks look at their pastimes. I spent all winter getting my train room together and working on various aspects of my train room. Come spring I moved on to projects outside. This is Vermont and in the winter it's cold. In the spring and summer it's nice to be outside. So winter equals train room. Spring and summer equals something else. And the other thing about trains that I think folks who may think differently is you may spend some time doing stuff and then you reach a point where you kind of step back and just play with it in your head because you got to make a plan and that takes effort and time. I'm anxious and excited to see the boat project. Given the way you fellas approach doing stuff and building stuff I'm sure it's going to be fun for you and fun for me to watch.
I found you and fell in love with you guys because i was doing research on the American canal system and of course the system in England came up and there you was. Obviously we don't have the system here anymore like you guys do there and i found more joy and information from this channel and it got me hooked and ive been here now for a long time. Was i bummed when you sold the boat and got this little farm? A little bit yes but i stayed because of you both and i love this videos just as much as the canal videos. Your little chunk of land and the things you have going on is simply amazing. I think the people that left after you got off the canal have missed out on alot. When you announced this new boat, i found myself worried you was leaving the farm and thinking how much id miss it lol. Thank you for sharing all this with us. Have a great weekend fellas.
Loved my slap all the way in ireland, maybe I've given you an idea, when railway gets built, have a canal running along it with a model of Silver Fox, love you guys. ❤❤
I wonder if it's going to be like a traditional sailing boat for sailing round our stunning Scottish coastline! Maybe a really old-time style one. (No idea what they're called, as you can see!) ⛵🙂
Well,, that’s ok, we, I don’t know I think most of us are here from the beginning and are here for whatever you want to share, we love you guys. Take care and I’m looking forward to your boat build 🌸
Onwards and upwards... that's the way to go. Glad to hear about your new adventure. Looking forward to seeing your videos going forward. I really enjoyed both aspects of your life adventures ie; boating,bees,history etc. You fellas are always most entertaining. My best wishes to your wedding and your continued success. All my best. Robert MacDonald Canada 🇨🇦
I don’t care what you do. I love you on the water, and at the Croft. Your videos on Silver Fox and the rental boat in Scotland made me want to visit England again and see more than the usual tourist sites. I’ve never been to Scotland, but thanks for the stunning views. You guys are so professional, no wonder people think you’re working on a TV show. Bees, owls, dogs, trains, boats or whatever, please keep filming. Can’t wait for the wedding.
Found you and loved your journey on the canals, and I love your adventures at the croft. I laughed out loud every time you slapped someone for a stupid question. 😂
Train barns can take time which is fine, when it starts it will be fun and end up utterly fabulous.❤ I just want you to be happy and healthy and have a really wonderful wedding because we all love you both so much. ❤x x x x Sending my love to you both and Otis, Sherlock, all the chickens and all your fabulous animals and and wildlife, who have I missed out!
How dare you two not live up to the expectations of every hapless viewer (especially ones that think the boat should be called Geoffrey!) touching cloth at the thought of the foxes returning to the canals. 🤪
Kia Ora Lads, you two are so lovely to listen too and watch. Your antics and banter are such a nice change . So may AROHA surround you at all times. Married !!!! OMG that is the Event of the Year in my opinion. Kia Kaha Tane Toa's. UBIQUE
You aren’t Z list to us 😊 but glad you wouldn’t feel pressured into choices for commercial reasons . Anyway who doesn’t enjoy messing about in boats 😊 and enjoying your Scottish home best of both worlds
In answer to the "are you selling the croft". Pretty sure you don't need to move from a house onto a boat when you build/buy a boat. Otherwise my mrs would be well pissed off. And I'd need chopping into quarters.
👋Sounds like the song My Heart's in the Highlands,. Love 'The Girls' nice goin Sean. Duct Tape is a good product, m8 held his car together with it for a while, we told him he should use Gaffa/Car Tape. Nice goin m8s, I'll be lookin forward to seein the new boat. [Useless Info] I've been lookin for a broke catamaran to rebuild. Nothin on your scale. Nice goin m8s, lookin forward to the nextie. You all stay vertical Eh!
Amazing how intrusive we can be 😀 You must have to shake your heads when reading the questions. Yet you both smile and answer. On the other hand it is also amazing how misunderstood your comments can get scrambled.😁😅. That has to make you go 'HUH?'. Just keep moving on 😂😂😂
It's my considered opinion that the two of you have so much love for each other, for your dogs, for the croft, for your hens and Sherlock and the bees and Scotland etc, that you'd never leave them unattended, or change from your plans which are ongoing and making you happy (operations or other ill-health situations notwithstanding* *you can look that word up because I cant explain it!! 😊) Anyway, I feel whatever you choose to do, as long as its within your financial and health conditions, and makes you happy, you'll be successful anything you set your minds at. Thankyou for sharing your lives and videos with us. Good luck with your ongoing plans, and love to your animals, who I am 100% sure you love too, and so will always take good care of. 🏴 Bye for now. Take care. Stay safe. 'Bee' happy. 🐝🐝 B.M.S. (SE.London) 😊🏴♥️🇬🇧🙂🖖
@@FoxesAfloat It's only fair to acknowledge how well you respect and care for your animals (& insects), home, and followers. I've always believed it's right to give praise where it's due. Thank-you for responding. Good Luck with your wedding, operation and other forthcoming plans. 🙂🏴♥️🏴🙂🖖
With an army of bees, a wooden submarine would be able to avoid the metal detection. It would be painted silver to blend into something like grey rocks and Sherlock could be trained to act as periscope on your way to take over the world 😂🎉
I’m thinking a trailerable aluminum fishing trawler with a small cabin. Question will be width. How wide can you trailer and would you go wider than 6’10”, making some canals impassable, should you decide to visit UK canals. Also, what are you trailering with? Is there a camper van build in your future?
Guys another fantastic honest episode. The heather is abundant on my local golf course in woodhall spa in Lincolnshire it looks beautiful. Blooming heck I love your channel and I love you guys, keep up the good work looking forward to your future adventures ❤️👍
You really don’t need to explain, I’m happy watching and
Laughing along with you both 😂🫶🏻💙💙
It is so beautiful there. If I lived there I would find it hard to leave for sure. The Heather is just gorgeous. Gosh I can’t believe it has been 3 years since you were on Silver Fox. Time flies!
For me, its the two of you I watch, what you are doing is fun as well.
Oh, as well as Otis and Sherlock
Thank you! 🤩
I loved you on Silver Fox, I love you on the Croft, I love you for you in whatever you do!💗💗💗🤗
Thank you so much!
Loved the canal adventures, which is when I first started watching you. However, the ones you are doing now at the croft are just as exciting and interesting. You guys are so inspirational and I shall continue to watch you whatever you do!
Cool, thanks!
You to have so much energy and enthusiasm it rubs off on everyone else. I will always support you whatever you choose to do. Keep well and safe. James.
I think having things on the back burner is wise. It gives you something to plan for and look forward to doing.
Whatever you do or don't do, I have been and will remain a subscriber and watch your interesting, entertaining videos.
“Moving ahead and seeking joy!” Well said Colin, never look back in life.
Three years??? Wow! Time flies. Yes, I was a Silver Fox viewer. I miss watching your humor. I pop in every once in a while, but it really was shocking to me it has been 3 years. Congrats on your wedding!

What a bunch of nosey buggers we are. Looking forward to seeing the new boat and continuing to share your adventures
Excellent vlog today guys, you both make my whole week as specially if it's on a Friday or a Saturday.
"Go out and find the things that bring you joy and try new things and go new places."
Now there is a mantra for life if ever I've heard one ❤
Sean and Colin it's been a pleasure watching you from silver fox on the canal to the croft I think you myself you have more adventures where your at and I think Colin with his mental health finds it easier on the croft but whatever your endeavours I wish you both well
Bloody hell has it been 3 years since you left silver fox , when has that time gone , good luck with your new adventure 🎉
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Love the slaps for stupid questions!!
I truly have great admiration on how you guys live life. A lot of people find it hard to let go of the past and never move on and continually try to move backwards.

Whatever you guys do is gonna be fab, i am going to be waiting patiently xx

Coming from a family of wooden boat builders, I am looking forward to watching this build! Woo hoo!
Anyone who watches your vlog on a regular basis knows that you are both settled where you live and happy, so why would you sell up? 😂. It’s such a beautiful part of the world that you are in. Good luck with the boat etc 😎👍
A lot of hard work ahead. You guys are amazing. ❤❤
Sorry to hear that you are having such a tough time my friend not fun at all, hope it gets sorted soon 🤞🏻🙏🏻
You do seem to have such a rich and happy life. Bees, marmalade, animals, beautiful locale. I'm quite envious. And always eager to see what you're up to
Thank you very much!
i just started to watch the "canal videos" again. They were soo good with the production.
Hmmmm.... Can't really recall when I started following you guys on TH-cam, but I joined you just prior to your building and launching SF.
While I really enjoyed watching the canal cruising series, watching your transition to country living, especially in the Highlands, is also quite enjoyable. Interesting items (not a complete list though) - honey production; building up of your apiary; enclosure for Sherlock; your private walks into the woods discussing your mental health; drone shots of the highlands, durning the seasons.
Wishing well with the wedding. May you have many fine years ahead of you.

Hope your groin isn’t to painful Colin. Lovely to see you both. ❤
Definitely consider naming your boat Geoff 😊

The train barn is next year or the next. Whenever You can do it! No problems!

It's not going to be a narrowboat, I reckon it's going to be a submarine with a fancy scandi wooden interior.

I wonder if it's going to be like a traditional sailing boat for sailing round our stunning Scottish coastline! Maybe a really old-time style one. (No idea what they're called, as you can see!) ⛵🙂
Hi guys what ever you do I’ll be watching. Keep surprising the viewers always love the content❤
Thank you for sharing your life with us. On the canals or on the croft, you are entertaining and I enjoy it all. Thank you. ❤
You are so welcome
Groovy episode. Nice to hear you lot are keeping busy and hopefully out of trouble.
Well,, that’s ok, we, I don’t know I think most of us are here from the beginning and are here for whatever you want to share, we love you guys. Take care and I’m looking forward to your boat build 🌸
I think it will be a day boat or a weekender. So you get some time on the water but still have your home.
Onwards and upwards... that's the way to go. Glad to hear about your new adventure. Looking forward to seeing your videos going forward. I really enjoyed both aspects of your life adventures ie; boating,bees,history etc. You fellas are always most entertaining. My best wishes to your wedding and your continued success.

You two are always fun and joy to watch

Found you and loved your journey on the canals, and I love your adventures at the croft. I laughed out loud every time you slapped someone for a stupid question. 😂
Awesome! Thank you!
Wishing you both well can't wait for new narrow boat videos

Thanks guys for yet another entertaining video. Had to laugh though, “We never go back always move forward”, well apart from building another boat…
You’ll look a bit silly when you see the boat 😂👍🏻
I’m a married female but you two are good looking men xx
❤️
Sounds really great that you are having Another boat. Just to say the marmalade arrived safely and it was really nice think you.😊 enjoy the weekend. 😊
Aww, enjoy! ☺️

We do.

Don't say Mike Hunt really fast. It can get you into trouble😊

Looking firward to build and whatever adventures the biat takes us on! oxo
Good luck guys, always something to look forward to!
Cheers from Colorado! Exciting times ahead!🥰
People shouldn’t ‘Surmise’ on what you’re up to.Are you building a ‘Broads Cruiser’…..x
I’m looking forward to whatever the new Silver Fox will be! :) hope all is well with you both!
All sounds very exciting! Take care and enjoy! ❤

You dont get narrowboats on the Caledonian canal, etc....a tupperware boat, for the loch/s.....
Good luck to you both

It's my considered opinion that the two of you have so much love for each other, for your dogs, for the croft, for your hens and Sherlock and the bees and Scotland etc, that you'd never leave them unattended, or change from your plans which are ongoing and making you happy (operations or other ill-health situations notwithstanding* *you can look that word up because I cant explain it!! 😊)
