That was wonderful Gary and Nicky. The snow scenery as you were travelling was amazing. Thank you for filming and getting frozen for everyone.
Glad you enjoyed it
Ellesmere's a lovely place and we'll just have to visit it ..hopefully this Summer!
You should
Thanks Gary love Ellesmere and the town a good Tesco’s in the arm also as you know.hopefully all is well merry Xmas 🎅 ❤❤❤
Merry Christmas Philip !!
Hi Gary, I've been looking for a new horn for my narrowboat for at least the last year and can't find one I like the look or sound of!...However I'm loving the sound of yours so would really appreciate knowing it's make and where you bought it. Keep up the great work with the vlogs and I hope you all have a great Christmas, thanks Brian
Hi Brian, im so pleased you're enjoying the vlogs bud. We got our horn from Venetian Marina chandlery (£18.95) and its a better. I'm sure if you contact them (Ruth & Richard) they could forward one on to you
@@GaryCaptainPhillips Thanks Gary, I see Richard occasionally so will have a word when I see him next.
Top of the morning to ya. I have a day off today, so as I sit and enjoy my coffee, I also enjoy Chugabug. I do so enjoy your travels, and I did do as you asked. I went back and watched you vlog on the history of where you are at the present. I must say, I enjoyed this as well. Wow, back in those days when we were still trying to become a nation, you was already industrialized. That is just amazing to me. And to listen to you give the history, shows how much you enjoy the history of your surroundings. Sorry for the length of this, but I just wanted you to know how much I enjoy watching you and your family as you travel the canals. I am 67 years old, I wish I could come over and spend a time doing this. But alas its only a dream. Be careful and I will wait for you to move on again. I did however leave a comment on the post from back then. Even though it is a couple years late.
Once again thank you so much for your kind comment and I'm so pleased that you enjoyed my 'Historical Ellesmere' vlog. You're certainly correct when you say that I enjoy the history of the canals, its just marvellous that the buildings etc are still here for us to enjoy
great vlog on cut cranking it on the cut keep up the great vlogs good see frends on cut and great boats on cut keep up the great vlog thanks lee
Merry Christmas and Happy New year
Same to you Marjory
More and more houses going up around there and everywhere along the canals they should leave it as a green corridor great vlog always What's your workshop tour vlog last night came up in my memories
Hope you enjoyed our vlog and I agree about the housing. In an upcoming vlog I'm afraid you'll see more canal side housing being built
Was down Blakemere back in April.... Very muddy towpaths! Complete opposite on the Aire & Calder at the moment. Is there much boat movement?
All the boats are effectively trapped on the Llangollen Canal so there's very little moving at the moment. So many trees down now following the recent storm
Great vlog Gary beautifully filmed great to see you both the other day
Thank you nd it was lovely to see you both too x
🌲🎅🎄 I hope you weathered the storm ok merry Christmas to you Nicky and the kids 🎅
We did thank you and a very Merry Christmas to you and yours too
Great vlog Gary. Will be spending winter on the Llangollen next winter. Was on it earlier this year. Must have missed that launderette, as that is a great bonus for doing the bedding which cannot fit in my twin tub. Only the sheets can. Keep safe, keep warm and enjoy...😊
Its a great launderette and a great cafe nearby when you're waiting too
Always go right to your channel when posted. I enjoy seeing your beautiful country and especially the history that you include. Wondering...what kind of maintenance you do on your drinking water tanks to keep water safe to drink. Thanks for the ride.
Hi bud and thanks for watching. We use Aquatabs, you just pop them in the tank then give them a good flush through but our tanks are constantly used so all is good
In the first week of December winds get worse on the Llangollen.I see the date of this video is still in November.Hope you are safe and dry through the yellow alerts.
All good thank you

snow is a four letter word😁❄ sometimes
One way to readily gauge the temperature is the size of the snow particles. Yours look fairly large (and wet!) indicating it is not "perishing" cold and the water points were probably O.K. ...FOR NOW... No ice on the cut but you have to go "with your gut"! Long range armchair gongoozlers like me are not there getting pelted!
We after found out that boaters had used the water point and it was fine. Bettisfield does freeze easily though as we have found in previous years
Your weather looks like it did here yesterday (December 7th)! Not a "winter person" myself but I deal with it... Some find it enchanting... but I am heading into the 70th one that I have endured... I suspect that the charm is wearing off! Snow as it may, at least you are not "ice-breaking"! Was there ever anything like a canal icebreaker when these cuts were mostly industrial and commercial? Certainly there must have been spells when the canals froze over thick enough to hinder transport of goods.
There were ice breakers on the cut, you could identify them by their very thin and pointy bows
Very beautiful scenery. Im really looking forward to the time when i can quit work, sell my house and buy a narrowboat.
Its a great life for sure, good luck
Hi Gary & Nicky...thank you for a great vlog of your cruise along the cut in the lovely snowy wintery scene...stay safe and we'll hope you got through Storm Darragh if it came your way...😊
Cheers Gary, yes we survived the storm but its certainly been a rough one

Yes there is... if you go to my home page for Chugabug and click the videos icon they appear in order
Thank you so very much!!! Hope you are all well and keeping safe. x
Hi. Is there any way of watching your videos in order? x
Hi Julie, yes you can... if you go to my home page on youtube and click the 'videos' icon they're all in order there. Hope this helps
Hi Gary and Nicky. The snow looks so lovely when you don’t have to travel in it. I remember that it was very short lived though. Nice vlog 👍Take care. Nick
Hi Nick, it was absolutely freezing matey I can promise you lol
Thank you forthe beautiful snowy scenes helps me to feel cooler. Sorry for ? the possible thumbs down sign, I pressed the wrong button !!!. You deserve the thumbs up sign always and I love following your journeys from Adelaide Sth Australia. Happy Christmas to you all 🎄
Aww don't worry about the thumbs down and I'm so pleased you enjoyed the vlog
Lovely Views of all the snow ❄️ 😀 make a great Christmas card 😀 👍
Morning from NZ, we have just watched your video, can you advise how you do the mapping thanks Pam & Keith, lovely watching the snowfall as we sit in sunshine
Nickys the one in charge of the tracking apps as I'm useless, im sure it's called Relive

Xx
Looks very beautiful, but very cold🥶. Happy cruising❤
Very much a beautiful wintery cruise, from the warmth of my home the canal shows her beauty still. The Cut never ceases to amaze me, along with the Captain of Chugabug.
Thank you for your kind comment James, so pleased you enjoyed it bud
Hello to the lovely chugga bug family. That snow looked amazing. Great vlog as usual. ❤
Thank you so much 🤗 hope you're good buddy
What a beautiful day to cruise. Nicky, if you are the one who does the editing, I love the music you choose on all your videos. You do a wonderful job with all the video editing. Thank you both for sharing your amazing adventures.❤
It's actually me (Gary) that does the editing so thank you very much
Hi Gary looks beautiful in the snow on the Llangollen canal,I’d do the prees branch if you can later on it’s worth doing it,take care in the storms today 😊
We love the Prees Arm matey and the breakfasts in Whixall marina
Stay warm, stay safe,stay dry.Following Chugs and Noah on UA-cam. Happy holidays to all from your friends in the US.🥴
Happy holidays!
Take your hat off and I'll donate money
Lol I've wore my hat before I was a boater
I hope that all of you and Chugs are safe from the predicted bad weather
Thank you were all safe and cosy

I love Noah's Snowman! You're brave to be traveling in the snow, but I understand why. Sometimes you just have to do what is necessary in spite of conditions. God bless ❤
