After issues in Loughborough earlier this year and about to travel further north through GREATER MANCHESTER and into more urbanised areas we decide a SECURITY review is essential.
Will it cope with our SECURITY needs onboard BORDER REIVER
Our cruise this week takes us from the quiet sleepy village of Lymm through the centre of Greater Manchester where we meet Jac’s niece Zoe & her fiancé Danny who try their hand at our LIVE ABOARD LIFESTYLE when they take charge of BORDER REIVER!!
We see the wonders of the BARTON SWING BRIDGE and the MANCHESTER SHIP CANAL mooring for the night in the pretty village or WORSLEY. Jac explores the WORSLEY DELPH and learns all about it’s connection with the INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION.
Finally we see the worst life in our OFF GRID FLOATING HOME… tune in to see how we get on.
Thanks for watching.
Jackie & Michael xx

He looks so like his Dad, the way he stands and moves ! Nice to have family for company sometimes !
We love having family on board. Thanks for the comment x
Some stunning scenery & photography in this video. So many people miss this by not realising the canal is just the other side of the bushes/hedge. Worsley is such a pretty village & surroundings, steeped in canal/mining history - glad you enjoyed this part of the North West/Cheshire. 👍🏻
Couldn't agree more Kenny! We loved it all, hopefully we will be back that way soon. Keep watching x
Love your vlogs, so interesting. Thank you
Thanks Phil we so appreciate you taking the time to leave us a comment. Next week we tackle the Wigan flight of 21 locks.... fun and games!!
Hi Jackie and Michael, great to catch up with your latest adventure. The wind looked awful,
what a faf getting fresh water, well done both of you.
Yes it was, it's a pity we couldn't record us getting onto the water point, it was eyes closed and pray time! Love the comment Julie thanks x
Your vlog is so helpful! The description of narrowboating being like driving for 3 to 4 hours was useful. We are looking to do a narrowboat rental trip next year and your insights are very helpful!
Glad it was helpful Andi! Hope you have seen some parts of the country you would like to visit from all our videos? Let us know where you get to. The K&A is lovely and the Leicester section of the GU canal particularly in autumn. Thanks for the comment x
Another amazing episode, thank you.
Your'e very welcome Graham. Love your comments.
yet another Great episode! really love the fact you go into the history of canals and explain who was who in making them!!
Love your comment thanks for taking the time, we so appreciate every message.
take care great video
Thanks Lilo lovely to hear from you as always x
A hot black coffee sounds great, thanks for a new video.
Your very welcome, so pleased you enjoyed this one and the coffee x
Hello Jackie and Michael mick from Hull really enjoyed this episode but really sad to see what was in the canal hope you are both well and I will look forward to your next episode xx 😊😊
I live not far from Worsley and you enlightened me about the canal and its kick-start of the Industrial revolution.. thanks Jackie.
Hi there thanks for taking the time to comment. How lovely to know you live near the Delph, it's such a great location and we loved visiting RHS Bridgewater as well. Thanks Jackie & Michael x
Hi, great video as always. Have you tried rubble sacks? They are intended for builders waste as they are less likely to become split by sharp bricks and the like or by wild animals. They are great for transporting waste or as a temporary store - tie the top with string or a tie wrap. You can even use a rubble sack to line a box or similar as a planter to grow tomatoes.
Great suggestion thank you. We wouldn't mind but this was the first time we've ever left one on deck for any length of time..... it only takes one rogue bird!!!
On the way to Dunham park. Beautiful walk to see the deers
Yes we did go and have a look, sadly we didn't take the camera to vlog it. Thanks for your comment.
I bought my 50ft semi trad from Lymm marina. It looked exactly the same as the one at 2:12 and came with an engine. Great yard and great people.
That's really good to know as we might be heading that way again this year. Good comment, great to let other boaters know that. J&M x
Really like you content love and peace
Thanks we try to give a little of everything, us, the canal network, history and a view of all the places we travel through. We are just being us, nice to know you enjoy x
Another enjoyable video thank you, some years ago we did a tour boat trip right along the full length of the Manchester Ship Canal from Manchester to Liverpool and then came back by Coach. It was so interesting and the size of the canal and depth of the locks was amazing. We visited Pennington Flash a few times last year by car. It is very beautiful and so many birds there around the lake. Thanks for keeping me entertained 😊
Sounds great Fiona! That is something we would love to do, wonder if they would let us take BR on there??? Pennington Flash is stunning, we had to pass by and get up the Wigan Flight as you will see in next weeks vlog. So pleased to know you are enjoying our videos so much xx
@@cruisingontheborder thank you I really do enjoy them 😊
p.s. loved the canel history, nice touch..............
Thanks Julie, something different to show we thought x
We usedto moor for a short time at that marina the one with the pub by the side of it in Boothstown whe they dug it out they found about 6 sunken barges an a silvery blue Volvo 340 the car was in better condition, Appologies for sounding like a smarty but a Flash is another name for a lake great vlog stay safe. 😊
Hi Robert, thanks for the comment and extra history about Boothstown, so interesting. Yes we did know the other name for a Flash... keep enjoying our little adventures more to come, x
A sail away sounds cool , can do the outfitting myself , must check for costs . Thanks .
Go for it! It's a great option Scott, let us know how you get on. J&M
that was a funny swing bridge lol
Hmm the 'lift bridge' I couldn't remember which way it went. All our filming of content is done without pre planning and 'what we say is what we see, think and feel.... no scripts are followed at all. Sometimes I have blonde moments and get it wrong.... Jac. xx
Your plants hanging tough in the wind.😊
They certainly are, it was very windy!!
Love your video's, the drive I do once every three year's is Regina to toronto staying in Canada the drive is 27 hr (2,659 km) one way.. 35 years ago I did it all in one go just gas and coffee.
Oh wow! What a long journey, bit too far for us we think. Lovely to hear from you and great to know you are enjoying our waterways adventures. J&M x
I remember watching a narrow boat vlog, where the guy had a water filtration plant that could cleans canal water to make drinking water. I just thought it was interesting. Always a hassle, needing water points.
Wow that sounds great, so interesting. Space is so limited on a narrowboat we wonder where he put all the kit.... great contribution to our channel comments. Thanks J&M X
Arrr me hearties another brilliant video. Thought something was going to happen like when you were told to clear off but fortunately nothing did.
Sorry to disappoint Paul, it was just a really sad end to the day and just shows you never know what people throw into canals. The smell was too bad for us to touch it. Thanks for the comment and great to know you are enjoying the vlogs. x
@@cruisingontheborder yes the smell is something else. As part of my job when I was working for the council I had to collect dead animals. Badgers mainly but dears were more smelly. We picked up one dear it was big and was bloated to the point that it exploded. Luckily we were in the yard when it happened. I went green and was praying to the toilet god. Other people had to sort it out and I got ribbed for weeks
@paulcook7752 wow Paul 😵💫😵💫 that sounds dreadful… poor you 😢
Love that you are using the new map book to show where you are. Helps me compare on the google map.
I do that too!
From Vancouver Island!
Haven’t been back to the UK, since 2007.
It’s just about time, I think!
We’ll rent a hire boat!
Great comment and good to know you are following us on maps. So good to have you onboard. x
Lymm is where I am from. My family all live round there. Fantastic to see the village now I live in the lakes.
Hi so pleased we could show you a little something of Lymm, how long is it since you have been there?? Lovely village and Jac found a great coffee shop.
@@cruisingontheborder about 6 years when I moved to the lakes. My mum and dad and family are all round there and have been for the 40 years I’m aware of. Beautiful village. And just past the old number 3 pub in little bollington was my primary school. Great video. Lots of history in lymm x
Ah yes I remember that windy water spot on a corner on the Bridgewater canal. WE had a similar experience...always windy there it seems and a challenge to get alongside or depart. I do hjope you get a chance to look about Worsley some day. Its a neat spot and there's a water point there too. Not many of those on the Bridgewater. We also visited Manchester several times and really liked the place. good moorings but the Rochdale 9 are a challenge. I so enjoy your weekly videos.
Ah ah John, it was scary wasn't it!!! Thankfully we haven't gone in the Rochdale 9 direction... how did you find then?? Thanks for the compliment, we tackle the Wigan flight next week!!!! Now that's fun.
we did thee Rochdale 9 at least twice. They were heavy and a couple had too much trash in the lock, but that is expected in big cities. Now the Wigan flight can be heavy too, much like the Caen flight on the Kennet/Avon We doubled up with a single handed chap so my wife drove the doubled up boats while I and the other chap worked the locks. They are close enough that one can walk ahead to drain/fill the next one while the other works the lock with the two boats. Weather was good and that makes the experience a lot better. It pays to have ones act together and work as a team.
Lovely 😊 video x watch you & Heidi & a couple of others on UA-cam so tempted to join you all xx Bridgewater is also a place in Somerset near me x the history is amazing x although I am a southerner 😆 please come and visit the Kennett & Avon one day x and maybe see Bristol my old home city xx
Ah ah great yes maybe we should all get in convoy!! We've been on the K&A last year and loved it. If we do get to Bristol again we'll let you know. Great comment thank you xx
I've had a Reolink Camera on our Boat for a year or more. Lots of preferences in the App to ensure detection and notification when absent and of course audio to any miscreant! Langiage for that normally Anglo Saxon and Loud! Have a good Winter. G. NB Happy Days.
Hello NB Happy Days, great comment thanks and so good to know you have a Reolink to... we love the fact you can talk to your intruders. Our language would make them run off the boat very quickly if we got to talk to them!!!!! x
Some days are diamonds some days are stone Xx
Hmmm, great comment thank you x
Need a sail on that boat!
Ah ah Peter maybe not, that was the trickiest water mooring ever!! Thanks for the comment.
Hi guys, here in Australia, three hours it’s nothing behind a wheel of a car , many times I drive from Brisbane to Sydney in one hit the longest drive ahead I had for awhile was from Brisbane to Deniliquin, which was 1440 km from Logan city. Anyway, keep up the good work. Love your Videos , Cliff from Logan City, Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺🧑🏾🦽
Hi Cliff, wow that is such a long journey that is like us travelling from Yorkshire to southern Spain... would be nice to do that and go to the sun, it's so cold here in Yorkshire at the moment. Love the comment, thanks for always providing us with some great information xx
Brilliant video really enjoyed it. Had everything that did even Jackie swearing 😂 . Thankyou so much for posting
Michael from Leicester xx
Oops Michael, I'm very sorry, it was only a little swear word.... mind you there could be a little more in the next video!!! Keep watching. Thank you for your kind coffee today, we so appreciate your support xxx
You can swear as much as you want 😂. You two are such lovely people, so full of banter xx
@michaelshaw1662 🙏🙏🙏
Everybody please go back and watch the previous episodes! They are fantastic! YOU will LOVE all of them. ENJOY!
Sharon thank you so much for your kindest of comments. We love hearing from you. Happy New Year xx
@@cruisingontheborder My pleasure! So relaxed, and positive, and even if there is a "happening", I love the way it's handled. "All GOOD"! .
Pennington Flash lake is the result of a depression caused by mining subsidence being filled with water. Always enjoy your content.
Wow we didn't know what, such an interesting fact. Thanks for letting us and our viewers know. So pleased you are enjoying x
To visit my sisters I have to drive 12 hours straight. I usually take a break at Lake Eufaula State Park in Oklahoma. Go for a swim and such. I haven't visited my brother in Phoenix, Arizona just yet but that will be a two day drive at least and probably three. Retiring at the end of February and am looking forward to taking my sweetie-pie with me Phoenix, through the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. AMAZING place, Colorado. Been there many times as a kid camping and fishing. Looking forward to this trip so very much.
Wow Pat that's such a long way. In the UK we sometimes have no concept of just how big each state in the USA is. Enjoy your travels to see all your family. xx
I live by lake eufaula, don't ever see many mentions of it!
@@shelleydouglas1263 Wonderful place.
We "went" this way last week with "Floating our Boat"! What a beautiful place Worsley is!
Jacq, could I make a suggestion as I don't like missing either the interesting sights or the info. Wondering if it would be possible for you to voice-over the information rather than typing it on screen.
I play it twice so I can read it and can willingly carry on doing that 😊
Hi there, hope you had a lovely cruise with Fran and Rich, we passed their boat on the Leeds & Liverpool on our journey. Sometimes we do do voice overs, that's Michaels department... hope is didn't spoil your enjoyment. Thanks for dropping us a message. x
The old number 3 pub I think 👍👍
Thanks for the comment, clearly you have local knowledge.
@@cruisingontheborder there wasn’t many pubs when you got to 18 in lymm. They were all spaced a long sobering walk from each other and the number 3 had the best night life and quiz nights. Sadly the landlady past away and the pub was never the same again. Brilliant video
You have a bow thruster, strong enough? so in wind with no help, you loose the bow, then control the bow position with the bow thruster until positioned properly to loose the stern. same without a bow thruster really but one must loose the stern quickly, before the bow crosses the canal, and be strong enough to do so, which might put the weaker person at the helm so the stronger can loose the lines and jump aboard.
Hi Alan, great comment and suggestion. The wind was too strong for just the two of us, glad fellow boaters helped us. We have heard other boaters have exactly the same problem there. Maybe CRT need to move the water point??? Hope you are enjoying our videos. xx
"Panama Red"
The body in the plastic bag reminds me of some of the episodes on the hit TV show " Inspector Morse ".
Scary to think it might off been.... thanks for the comment x
hej, dejligt at se det ser altid hyggeligt ud hilsen Denmark
So pleased to have you with us from Denmark. You have a very beautiful country. J&M x
Well done on such a gusty day's you had and some lovely places you have visited sorry last part spoiled your day 😢
Hi David, thanks for your lovely comment, yes sad end to the day. One thing we realise with this is you just never know what you will find or what is around the next corner. A very interesting way of life. Hope all is well with you. Next week we tackle the Wigan Flight of locks.... now that is fun and games. x
Well done to hubby for phoning police, anything suspicious should be investigated - dog or otherwise you never know, it should not be ignored.
Very very true, it actually could of been anything..... let's hope it was just rubbish but the stench was horrid!!
You need a plastic bin or similar
If that was me I would have stopped and retrieved item not knowing exactly what it was I felt bad then just passing by the police won’t care. For all they knew it could have been a baby wrapped in a fur coat or blanket. 🥺
When I was younger I use to have to walk down the canal to go to school and came across a baby that had been thrown in the canal I’m afraid it has scarred me for life so when I saw your post it made me really sad and bought back memories. When I’m on our boat I’m always on the watch it’s so sad people can be so nasty.
@AmandaGreenwood-ph2yo reading this made us very 😢
i love those older industrial building which have perfect residential type proportions and shapes. Can you stash the rubbish in the weedhatch till you can dispose of it?
Hmm thanks for the comment, we normally take it straight away to be disposed off.... that magpie was a nightmare!!!!
Not many comments about the herb you smelt :-) Possibly be found in a ' tea ' .
Smell can really shock you . Once got the scent of a lady before I saw her exit her house , 50 m away :-)
I still remember Bill and Ben the flowerpot men , they had a lovely friend :-)
Thanks for sharing! You are giving away your age Scott with the Bill and Ben mention... mind you we remember that well as well!! Ha ha
As such , dead bodies float for a while , being in a plastic bag does not help .
Many many years ago they found the body of our Maths teacher at school , into his 80s I think , an avid walker , ended up in the canal around Solihull .
Wow what a sad story...
Jacky your hair will wear out on your left side. Tie it up or put hat on when it’s windy. Love your video and can smell the coffee!!!
Oh now I love this comment Carole, please tell me why I will wear it out, it is because I am always playing with it??? You have clearly been paying attention to me.... ha ha ha. So pleased you are enjoying our videos.
A windy early cruise and a sad ending. I pray if it was a dog, it wasnt thrown in alive. people do these things and think nothing of the suffering. I hope you reported it anyway. Great scenery and pretty towns.
Yes, so sad after our windy start to the day. Yes of course, such a sad thing to show but it's a fact of life that people throw all sorts into the canal. We often crash over metal objects, like shopping trolleys!!!! Glad to hear you enjoy x
I'm looking into narrowboat life and interested in your experience of the Bridgewater canal as I'm from Leigh and will be frequenting the marina at the lift bridge. You are correct that Leigh has mixed opinions, it definitely is a town of two halves, some old mining town problems alongside it's nicer areas like Pennington. I hope your experience was a good one 😊
Welcome aboard! We hope you make it, it's a great life!! Leigh, yes there are mixed opinions, we had a good experience. It the Wigan flight had been open for longer there would have been many more boats around too. Safety in numbers and all that... no seriously all was good. Keep us up to date with your narrowboat story. J&M. x
LiKe someone else has asked what happened to the black bag? Nice video
Thanks for the compliment and dropping us a comment. Sadly we don't know, it was too smelly to get close to!!
Been cc'ing about 20 years now and quite honestly say never had any issues regarding security....but then saying that the english bull terriers keep us up to date with that👍
Oh on another thing the only time back in the day the only boats with flowers/plants on the roof were funeral boats🤣🤣....just saying
Anyway keep going ya always put a smile on me face👍👍👍🍻🍺🍻🍺
Hi there, love your comment and we've only had that one security 'type' issue in all our years.... not as long as you Lord though!! Didn't know what about funeral boats, great fact thanks. We will and thank you x
@cruisingontheborder I float about with a mate who's family go way back with the working boats and this mate is a wealth of information and the story's he tells are fascinating 👍
Tell what ya though "it were bloody hard work for ya money"
Well done for phoning the Police regarding the Bag.
Unfortunately these days it could be anything.
Sadly people are abandoning their Cats and Dogs or disposing of them because they can’t afford to pay for them to be rehomed !! Many of the Shelters are requiring £150-200 per animal as a condition and contribution before they will accept a animal ( bit strange when you consider people are calling the RSPCA Shelters etc because they can’t afford their Dog or Cat anymore !! ).
Sadly it’s always the Animals who suffer the most from this Cost of Living Crisis situation and some people are struggling with the bare essentials for their pets,like Food.
We would Love a Dog but I cannot justify firstly spending out £1000’s on what we used to call Heinz 57 ?. But you have to consider Insurance and possible Vet Fees and not just the Food.
My Children are the most important ( and they cost enough lol 😂 ).
Another great video ❤
Hi and thank you for the great comment and such wonderful information. It's a sad fact of life that these things happen, the canal is an easy place for 'anything' to be left!!!
Owning a dog or any animal is an expensive thing and some people entered into during COVID without realising the costs... so sad.
Agree with you about children haha..... So pleased you enjoyed the video. xx
Altringham? you mean Altrincham? 😁😁😁 great vid guys and hope you're both well - great to see the familiar surroundings of my hometown - Tom xx
Tom, sorry to get the pronunciation wrong, we are from Yorkshire so maybe it's just our accent. Hope we show the canal through Altrincham off ok xx
@@cruisingontheborderPronunciation was fine, it’s the spelling that was dodgy…
It's sad that people act so weird about cannabis - a super strong medicine, and relatively harmless recreational drug. People are fine with alcohol because the government says its ok. When only a 100 years ago that too was illegal.
Hi Daniel great to hear from you and yes you make such an interesting point 👌
It is legal in Canada. At first, people were worried about what would happen, but in the end, it really was fine, and there were no issues.
Bet you're glad you don't rely on sail power, what with that wind!
On the subject of wind, it was quite windy up here in the North East recently.
This kid went flying past me, screaming his head off in terror because of the wind.
I yelled at him, "Let go of the Kite, Son!"
Good evening Batman, we wondered where you were? Rescuing people and saving the world we hope!!! :) Yes sail power would of been interesting, think we would be in the North Sea by now!! Lovely to hear from you. J&M x
Looks a good secure knot used for tying up to that mooring ring - is it a bowline?
Michael is our knot expert!!
Hi Jackie & Michael
Another great video with lots of history and some great cruising, totally agree about getting tired at the tiller, it's hard work standing there for hours on end
Take care both of you
Lots of love
Jane & Martin.
Hi Jane & Martin xx lovely to hear from you. So pleased you enjoyed this one, sad end :( How is life with you, good we hope!! xx
😊hi guys am I dreaming jaq you said that the bridge would swing I'm sure it lifted 🤔 anyway that Tudor building wàs beautiful to see did you find a watering hole 🍺🍾😲 at the end of the day or was Michael making brownie points with a 🍽️ tonight 🙏 jaq anyway thanks for the 🎥 take care all the best John 😊
Now John, everyone deserves a blonde moment...... that was certainly one!! We never script anything so often we come out with some right funnies or bloopers!! Michael always earns lots of brownie point ha ha. Virtual hugs to you xx
Homegrown lettuce, perfect anytime of day. Wonder if it goes with cornflakes?😅 lots of love to you both as always xx
Hmm not sure lettuce and cornflakes is a good combo.... do you choose mayo or milk to go with it??? Ha ha x
@@cruisingontheborder mayo of cause 🙄😉xx
Oh be Jesus.. bodies in the water 😂 it’s not me.. I haven’t given in yet lol. Dog.. my worst nightmare 😤 biggest tragedy of life is people to dogs. Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks for your comment and yes we agree with you. Good to know you are enjoying our waterways adventures x
👍👍Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks for your emoji's from Australia x
As police say if you suspect it report it and let them decide if waste of their time
Yes agree with you, great comment. Thanks
Just catching up on your videos Jacqui and Michael. I've been having a crappy time with a long cold virus , and the NES seizures l get , so sorry for not watching for a while . Nice tyat you caught up with Jackie's niece . That was a shock to find what ever was in the black plastic bag , but a good deed to report it even if it was a dog . Some people are just cruel or just couldn't afford to take the poor animal to the vets . Good idea about the security camera on your boat . If l saw somebody trespassing on mine (if l had one that is) l'd be shouting "Oi You, Gerroff my boat, you %#@$! ..... 😂😂
Hi Jerry, we missed you. Hope you are keeping well and feeling a little better??? Yes a sad incident on the canal. Yes security is so important, you can never be too careful. Stay safe and well Jerry and Happy Christmas to you xx
“ MARY JANE” All Purpose Herbal Seasoning The happy herb
LOL thanks for that. Maybe we'll try it x
Great vlog but not to sure about canals starting the Industrial Revolution, the canals were developed to service the Industrial Revolution. Iron Bridge and the Black Country is the birthplace of the revolution
Oh we love the extra information, the plaques at the Worsley Delph told us all that... hope we didn't get it wrong xx
@@cruisingontheborder In the UK there are multiple sites all claiming to have kick started the Industrial Revolution. The formation of a workable banking industry, the Age of Enlightenment, Jethro Tull and Abraham Darby also lay claim to the start of the revolution. The revolution did not start by any single event, it was a combination of lots of innovations all coming together and the railways were by far the most influential event in the Industrial Revolution
It’s age old question of what came first - the chicken or the egg - ask any American who invented the lightbulb and you’ll probably be given the wrong answer
The evil weed. Marijuana.
Very evil and smelly too......x
So what was the outcome of the mysterious bag in the canal?
Sadly we don't know, it was too far away from the side of the canal for us to try and get it and we couldn't stop with the boat.... a really sad end to our day. Thanks for the comment and question x
As always loved your blog. Always interested,sad about that package in water. Where you guys from originally?
Hi there love the comment thanks. We are both from Yorkshire. So sad about the floating bag..... x
@@cruisingontheborder my brother lives in Yorkshire near Hillsborough. I assume you behind with your blogs seeing Jackie still with her shorts on,! Too cold and wet in Crewe in Cheshire.
@sandrakent8049 great comment 👌 yes we are behind. We record footage every day sometimes we can produce 3-4 videos from one weeks recording so you can see how quickly we can lag behind. We also want to publish videos of all our journey for us and our subscribers so yes we’re still in shorts and the sun ☀️ is shining. Hope you’re enjoying xx
I literally had to think about watching this when the intro showed the floating bag. Cruelty to animals is so upsetting for me. However as always a fantastic video and I thank you. At my age you would think I would be more stoic, but I’m not. Have a great week and thank you. I just closed my eyes when you cruised by the bag, thanks for the warning.
I’m with you, I just cannot bear to watch it, so turned it off, apart from that a nice video👍
We both totally agree with you and we were in two minds if we should show it, but it's just a very sad fact of life that these things happen! Some people don't deserve anything from life if that is what they do.... Thanks for keeping watching and for dropping us a comment. We so appreciate it xx
Your magpies are cute looking compared to the Australian magpie's we have here. A much bigger bird and very wicked. When cycling in the UK we never had problems with your magpies .But your huge seagulls! Had one try to steal our cooking pot. Fortunately it couldn't take off with it but it certainly was dragging it away from our tents.
Ah yes our seagulls are dreadful, they will come and steal food from people. Do Australian magpies looked like the UK ones. Love the comment x
Our magpie in South Australia is actually the Piping Shrike. They are actually wonderful birds. Mate for like and take great care of their young. See if you can find a video of their melodious calls. Each bird has a unique song to share.
What was the badge on the guy's track suit top?
Hi not sure, will have a look. Thanks so much for your comment, great to hear from you.

Wow Ray I'm blushing, I’ll mention it to the Captain... he'll love that. Great to hear from you and have you onboard on our waterways travels. Jac x
Weed.... It smells disgusting ,, carnt stand it...
No us neither, dreadful. Thanks for dropping us a comment and hope you are enjoying our little waterways adventures x
get a black plastic bin with lid for your rubbish
Hi thanks for the comment, yes we have one of those inside, we just weren't expecting the birds to attack the bag we were about to take the rubbish so quickly. Argh!!!
I assume that the herb was cannabis aka marijuana. I think I heard that it's legal in the UK for medicinal purposes. BTW, just letting you know that "Altringham" is actually "Altrincham". One of the quirks of northern pronunciation.
Thanks for the comment, apologies for our pronunciation error. A virtual chocolate biscuit for you too xx
@@cruisingontheborder Your pronunciation was fine from what I remember. It's the spelling that was the problem. For some unknown reason it's "ch" and not "gh"!
So someone shouts over to ya " to get out of here" and straight away you hot footed out of there, why? Wish you explained more about that moment, what was so bad that you had to move on his say-so??
Thanks for your comment. We hope you watched the follow up episode where Michael does explain what happened and why we did what we did. Look forward to hearing from you again and do enjoy our other videos 😀😀🙏 xx
Jaqueline, you need to follow Zoe’s tip and wear a pony tail in windy weather.. you waste energy keeping your hair off your face!
Love this 🤣🤣 I’ve sent her your comment. She’ll find that hilarious. 🙏🙏
Cannabis is the answer for the virtual biscuit and u can make edables using cannabis
A virtual chocolate biscuit coming our way xx
@@cruisingontheborder does that mean I’m going to get mentioned on the next video
What kind of people throw a dog into a canal. I really hope the poor thing did not suffer.
Hi Judith, we were so very very sad when we saw this. There was nothing we could do.... some people are just horrid!! Thank you for taking the time to drop us a comment x
At least the bird made a mess outside your boat , one of my dogs has learned how to open the kitchen door despite me putting a lock on it and then get into the kitchen and open the dog proof bin and drag the contents all over my house 😂😂😂😂😂
Oh dear Nathan that sounds dreadful... it kept coming back to try again!!!
@@cruisingontheborder maybe you could leave a small speaker out on the stern and play some preditor bird noises to keep it away ? Also my house has now sold and iv found a lovely 60 ft ex hire boat with a very unusual 4 big windows in the saloon so it's just a matter of time and hope to get everything sorted out 🙂🙂🙂

Hi could it be green and you have to cut it with a mower? 😂
LOL x
Weed

"I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today." Who said that famous line?

Give us a clue? I’ll try not to google it..

Wimpy from Popeye!
@@Loveboatreruns1978 RIGHT YOU ARE!
Some lowlfe boater emptied their shit bucket in to the bin bag you cant beat a compost toilet.
Hmmm..... let's hope not!!
Why did you not stop and fish the bag out it could of been a baby wrapped in a fur blanket or anything I couldn’t of just left it as you know the police will not care at least you would of got peace of mind but that’s me I’m very soft and caring and would not of got it out my head it’s sad enough passing poor animals that drown as it is but at least you can see what it is. 👍
Thank you for your comment
We called the Police who do care. They sent an officer to examine the package. The bag could have been a crime scene. There was obviously nothing alive in the bag as sad to say it smelt strongly. In our opinion It is better to call the Police unless there is an immediate chance of saving a life which there was not. 👍❤️
Did the police get in touch and let you know? I just don’t know why you had to mention it in your video that’s all it was quite upsetting to know people just go by and not care. Would it have been any different if the bag didn’t smell bad would anyone still care.
@AmandaGreenwood-ph2yo Amanda we are so sorry to hear your story, it brought a tear to our eyes 😢😢. People are just horrid. We did let the police know and deal with it, best thing to do. We thought about leaving it out of the video but we show all aspects of boat life…, it’s not all nice cruising sadly. We hope you are ok. 💕💕💕💕
I have to ask. Jackie, have you had a DNA test to see if you’re related to Paul from Narrow Boat Unlocked? You have the same mannerisms, words and reactions to what you see. I think you’re long lost siblings.
Glad it’s not just me that’s thought that. They are so similar is so many ways.
Hmmm not what my actual brother would think to this.... ha ha love the comment.
Oh! Look! It’s Joe Biden secret stash… you may have just solved the biggest question on every American’s lips… what? Wait??? How is this? It’s a Narrowboating Channel isn’t it. 😂🤣
Love the comment, great banter thank you x
So sorry to hear you use bad language. We’re out…
😂 😵💫😵💫
I listened twice to the whole video and didn’t hear any bad language. What are you on about?
