  • Join us for a realtime narrowboat cruise on the tidal River Thames from Teddington Lock to Limehouse Lock. Enjoy the sounds of the water, nature, and countryside as they change to the bustling, busy, city-centre river through central London in this ASMR style video. Ideal for meditation, mindfulness, or just to enjoy some peace and relaxation. Also a great resource if you are planning to do the same trip or would like to see the famous London landmarks from a different viewpoint.

    So so enjoyable! Love listening to the water slapping against the boat. It’s a tremendous mixture of a water sounds, bridges and sunlight dancing on the water. I’ve been sitting here stitching away with Lily and Molly curled up snoring their furry heads off. This channel is a brilliant idea. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Hugs❤️

    I didn't think I'd like videos without the commentary but I was so wrong. This is what drew me to narrowboats in the first place, that calm and quiet travel through the English countryside. Well done guys.

    I am chrome casting this through the TV and the children are silent as they sit and watch this its amazing. Please keep these types of videos coming. We are in our summer hodays here in NZ so the children are home all day. So it's like going on a boat trip but staying home at the same time.

    Amazing. We've cruised (not on the Thames and in a hire boat) a couple of times over the years, so I have done this real time. Cuppa or glass in my hand yep a great experience. Will have to watch in 30 mins at a time though - busy time of the year. Merry Christmas you 3 have a lovely break. Jocelyn. NZ.

    • @andybusard6694
      @andybusard6694 2 роки тому +1

      I think the current, coupled with the lower than "usual" camera location makes it seem like the boat is going fast. Based on the trees passing and the walker at about 36 minutes keeping pace, the actual speed is less than 5mph. I love the peaceful aspect of the voyage! Like I'm able to relax on the boat as it goes on its voyage. Great channel!!!

  • @skgorman1214
    @skgorman1214 2 роки тому +1

    So how do you store all these real time videos? I remember you showing us a cabinet full of them on discs? I can’t imagine having an unending cloud storage for all your real time videos or do you? Also how do you record your dialogue during the trip as you travel and not have the bow camera and microphone pick it up? Occasionally I could hear some voices from the stern but for most of the video I could only hear the water lapping. What is your speed on this particular section of the Thames?

    • @BritainByNarrowboat

      @@BritainByNarrowboat No not on another channel. You are my favs and I thought there was something in one of the Foxes Afloat vlogs in which you mentioned how much footage you have and that was one of the reasons you wer starting the new You Tube channel How do you keep all the film footage stored?

    Lovely video. Just to be pedantic, did you livestream this? If not, then it's not "realtime", it's a recording.

    • @BritainByNarrowboat
      @BritainByNarrowboat  Рік тому +3

      Yeah you are being pedantic. ‘Real-time’ does not mean ‘live’
      Realtime means, the actual time during which a process or event occurs.
