I just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying your vlogs. the interior of your boat looks so bright and cheerful now. love to you Phil and Midge, Bushka 😻💖
Thanks Brian. Boating early or late in the day is safer and more peaceful. Night cruises in summer are also very relaxing. Early morning is the best time to get the cats in!
You're using a very good cameras with good resolution and frame rate. It can get annoying with other youtubers and videos that stutter or go fuzzy when the camera can't keep up. Yours are pin-sharp and have good focal depth as well I notice. Nice video! Thank you for sharing.
Hello Phil. With your extensive knowledge of the canal waterways, you should consider writing a book. It would be most helpful to any new boaters. To know where to and not to moor up. Where the nearest shop or post office is and how to get to the nearest town. Thanks for the video.
I suppose, after 34 years, you must be very au fait with where best to stop and stock up on groceries. Especially in a rural area like this one. It would be great if you did a chatty vlog sometime on how far north/south/east/west, you've been on the system.
Beautiful scenery Phil
Thank Phil. Beautiful filming.
Thank you Liz.

Thanks so much! 😊
Looks like a garden.
This is beautiful stretch of canal with especially the wooded areas. The isolated part of this would make that it so nice there.
Superb as always. Lovely sounds. So peaceful and relaxing. Most enjoyable. Thank you Phil.
Thank you Shirley.
I think if I had a boat I would be up and on my way early too, the calm quiet time is wonderful. Thanks for sharing this installment of your journeys.

The perfect antidote to a hectic day at work! Thanks Phil 🙏
Thank you, glad you enjoy watching.
That opening then passing the covered boat under the overhanging willow gave me Wind in the Willows vibes :)
Loved it. Thanks! What a view of the locks. ❤️
Thank you! 😃
Lovely video
Thanks 🤗
Another beautiful video Phil. That soft diffused light and those softer tones and colours. Very painterly. Magical. Thank you.
You are very welcome
Totally agree about the painterly quality of Phil's videos. Quite lovely, calm and unpretentious.
Brilliant Phil, the video almost speaks for itself 👍
Thanks Mike
Great video Phil.
Thank you.
Hi Phil, I love your videos.
Thank you so much.
You're a great narrator and story teller, Phil. Have you considered writing a book of your canal adventures and anecdotes?
Thank you. It would be nice to do that but it's a long term project and there're more pressing things to attend to first.

Thank you. Both are GoPros and set at 1080p at 30fps. Quite fast enough for narrowboating.
Keep them coming, hope you have a good week.
Thanks, you too.

Great idea but it would go out of date very quickly. Shops, Post Offices, Pubs etc are closing down all over the place.
Hi Phil, it's so beautiful there, I am going up to the calidonian canal next week for a few days to stay 😅
Sorry 🤦,,,, to stay with my friend, she has a boat up there, hopefully we get nice weather 🤞
Have fun!

So Pigeon's lock has a swan that plays chicken?
The boat that you pulled over to let pass, did they thank you or say hello?
I don't remember? It was a while ago.
Phil, I've got to ask - do you miss your long hair? 😌
Not at the moment but will probably miss it before too long...
