In the world we live in it's really nice to see people who are genuinely happy.
I havent watched regular Television of any kind for almost 6 years. Your channel brings me peace.
EVERYTHING on tv is a LIE, we are under the ONW WORLD GLOBAL REGIME, TV is a method of brainwashing. Mainstream Media as a Weapon of Social Engineering and War ua-cam.com/video/2eEY-9kUkyg/v-deo.html
I enjoy your videos so much I've tried watching videos by other canal boaters, but nobody is anywhere near as enjoyable to watch as you guys. Benny's music perfectly fits the pace and the scenery, and your personalities match it all perfectly as well. I'm SO glad I found your channel!
So before I realized Benny was doing the music I thought, "Wait. Did Neil Young make an album I don't know about? No, that's David Bowie. Nope, it's Sufjan Stevens." Then it dawned... it's Benny and he is doing his own thing. I love it. There's another UA-cam channel that uses its own music called "Adventure Archives" and I think it makes for great content. Really authentic and creative. Thanks for sharing your journey and your music.
Thanks for the kind words 😊❤
Re music , I am a 60s babe, now we’ll old .. your music has a sixties vibe to it ❤
I LOVE THAT PADDLE BOARD BECAUSE IT HAS ALANS BEAUTIFUL PICTURE ON IT!❤😻🥰
Allen the cat always looks so comfortable.. .. enjoying her life on your narrow boat. Boat life seems to be just right for her. 😊
I'm paranoid that she will be attacked by a dog!
Yes they're Damsels and Froggy was a Toad and beautiful. Lovely times xx
It might have been a frog in a toad suit - just saying ..
Hi There Ben Emily and Alan , Hope you are well , What a Great time you have had , Amazed at all the wildlife you see , a turtle wow how Great to see one in the water , And Alan looked Happy with her new friend , And wow to your surf board with Alan on it , your Pizzas looked tasty , so All looking Good , Thank you for Sharing , Take care All , 🐈⬛🐕, 🌅🌞
I absolutely loved the electric blue damselflies!
That was fantastic the professionals ❤❤ thank you xx
Benny is the dough master. Always looks so good.
Nice one guys, thanks for sharing your life with us 👍 xx
Hi, I'm so impressed by Benny with everything he can do. You are a lucky lady Emily. Also super impressed by what you take on too Emily. You fit so well together. Never seen such a laid back cat as Alan, she's amazing. I'm really jealous of your lives. XxPru nb Dream Catcher, Grand Union South.
What a brill new paddleboard you got
Nice one guys, great to see you relaxing with your friends and having fun paddling boards and eating delicious looking pizza. Nice to see Alan being so relaxed around Chanty. The "frog", btw, was actually a toad. A good rule of thumb when I'Deeing them, is that toads have dry, knobbly skin and frogs have smooth, shiny skin, so your friend, Nobby, was definitely a toad. 😄😄
And toads are mostly land reptiles.
Oops amphibian.....
Very Beautiful People and Awesome Places, thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Fab paddle board! I need Benny's pizza dough recipe! Thanks for taking us for a lovely afternoon trip via your vlog. This is so good to watch on a rainy October evening! Benny's music just so suits the canal lifestyle!😊🛶
I just love your camera work accompanied by Benny's beautiful music ... xxxx
I will admit that at first I was doubtful about your music in the videos. Yet now I look forward to the music and it help make the videos unique and memorable. Very nice video.
Loved this video ….great content ….Benny’s music always adds a special touch.
The “Allen” paddle board was the star of the show.
That frog was a toad, how amazing to find it on your boat. Lovely to see you finally got to Redhill. My cats the same, he’s round so has to have a medium sized life jacket. He doesn’t mind wearing it though. Really great vlog, so calm and relaxing. Great music too. Absolutely loved the Alan decorated paddle board. Loved this vlog, great to see Adam and Lauren too. Toad, turtle, goat, cows, swans, cat and dog, a very animal orientated vlog. Take care, lots of love. xxxx
Thanks so much 🥰😻🐸
That was a toad, they are happier out of water than frogs.
Wonderful to see you guys so happy working together keep it up guys x
Just loved the Alan paddleboard. Couldn't stop laughing at boarding method. Glad to see you made it to the boat yard.
That critter was Mr Toad!
I want to shout out to Benny as a chef (kept tidy by Emily) and a musician, his songs have a slight flavour of David Bowie! ❤
You two are a lovely couple to watch, so happy I envy you so much. It looks like a lovely way of life. I love the getting on the paddle board. It looks fantastic. The pizza made me feel hungry.
I just love that you show the good bits, that’s what makes your work really great. It all looks so easy, and fun too. But like ducks your feet are busy keeping it all going. Keep up the great work. I am a Brit living in the USA. She what’s to move and live like you guys are, I have to keep explaining, it’s harder then it looks!
Brilliant video guys, you look as you had great fun on your paddle board
Ben and Emily a match made in heaven ,I can see you love each other very much lovely to whatch ,take care xx
That was a pretty good trip up the Soar .That was a Banded Damozelle Fly the others are Damsel Flies.I was impressed you got the life jacket on Alan .I dare’nt try that on Errol without protective body armour 😂
😸 ❤️
What a wonderful vlogg! Love your way of life
Alan is very lucky to have you both
Those blue fly things are absolutley beautiful … and so was mr Frog lol xx
Love all your music and songs Ben.. very calming in these days of turmoil ❤
Never seen anyone get on a Paddle Board like that and with a Dog too 😊. You must have scared all the poor fish in the area with Alan’s face staring down at them !
Great episode love the music,John from Victoria Australia. Looks like England v Australia in World Cup ,should be fun ! Keep up your good work and music cheers .
Hallo, viele Grüße aus Kassel in Germany ❤❤❤❤ich verfolge sehr gerne euer Leben auf dem Boot.
Probably my favourite episode. So much packed in and some very amusing moments. Good job guys! 🐐👍
Absolutely wonderful vlog guys i am becoming so impressed with your channel and love the life stile you have chosen.
Proud of you for tackling the river so well! ☺️❤️ and looked like it was so worth it!!
Hehehe, it's beautiful here, I've got used to it a bit more now! 😸
Loved the chilled out video. Nice to see you relaxing and enjoying time with your friends Z.Look forward to next weeks . Love ya lots Trevor and Linda xx
Wow what a lovely time you all had what memories!
Nice to see you all having so much fun! Looking forward to seeing the boat work...Alan is sooo cute! 😊
The rest of the World is mega stressed but you guys are mega chilled. lol x
Great video and awesome paddle board!
It was me that piped at you at the lights (M1 junc 25)
Don’t look so worried, I wasn’t trying to kidnap you 😄
Thank you Ben and Emily. Your vlogs are always soothing, fun, interesting and motivating and this one was no exception. Great music Benny.
What a delightful video! 🙃
Allyn and I have a lot in common, "rotund."🤣😂 That was such a cute way to refer to her. My cat never liked the harness on, he would shimmy across the grass like he was on tactical maneuvers. The paddle board will be so much fun for you all. Another great vlog, so nice to see a new part of the country with you. Take care, stay safe and have fun till the next one. 🥰
Fun episode folks! You should photoshop Alan doing the hang ten thing on the paddle board. I hope the hull turns out ok next time.
Yes Damselflies, I love watching them emerging from the water, hatching and then drying in the sun before their first flight. But Dragonflies are more spectacular, and easier to see.
Love your new paddle board guys.😃 Good luck with the boat lift and blast by the way too. All will b3 good.😉xxx
Happy to see you guys hanging with Adam and Lauren. The only thing missing was Ben and Lauren jamming 🪕🎸👍
Those turtles are most likely terrapins. They were once popular pets often discarded down loos, and end up in the rivers and canals. They can live a long time in the UK and get quite big, but can’t reproduce as our ambient temperature is not hot enough.
Great vlog guys. Bennys got his dough out😂😂😂😂
Beautiful tunes what a great show today
Paddle board mania , good luck with the repairs....
The hull looks great, Alan was secretly impressed 😂
Gorgeous paddle board.
Such joy as always, keep the vlogs coming, you make a lot of people very happy.
That was a fantastic episode! The paddle board is fantastic! That pizza looked epic. And those damsel flies are quite beautiful. I just had a nature walk with an insect specialist ( i know theres a proper name for that, but its not coming to me at the moment). He picked up damsel flies and dragon flies by the wings, gently. He said , unlike butterflies , their wings don't get damaged by gentle touching. If you put your finger close to their legs, they will reach out and grab on. It was very endearing. Then he let them go back to their frolicking. I think they were ok.
Your Vlogs always have that feel good factor…❤
Your frog is a toad! Cool.
Such a wonderful vlog. New paddle boat, which is beautiful with Alan’s pictures all over it, friends like yourselves in a fun loving way, and good weather on the day. Hope all goes well with the boat and, Benny, I loved your first song about being on the water. Thank you both.
Hi Guys, What a terrific vlog. So much fun and laughter. Keep up the good work, love to you both xxx❤
Mission accomplished 🚀 Demob happy 🎉
Lovely to see ...and a different kind of environment.
Ben's clothes... what a cool Style...
Guys, your vlogs are so good these days! Loved every minute, time flew by, excellent backing music Benny, especially the 12 string bits.
Keep up the good work. We bought your album "Ancient Suit Songs" just recently, a brilliant collection, well done.
All the best,
Keith and Sue

I just love the whole vibe - happy times ... Pizza stays growing and being its own thing after you make it. Great, thanks for sharing these adventures. Allen on the paddleboard was inspired !
Loved the little toad that turned up on your narrowboat! Not seen one of those for many years!
Rotund cat , hilarious !
Loved this one, so funny, brightened my day no end.
Fab paddle board! Feeling sooo calm and relaxed after watching you guys! Like I bathed in liquid Xanax and swallowed some bath water. ☺️
Brilliant video guys thank you!
Love your awesome inflatable Ben & Emily "Alan" paddleboard from Goosehill! It looked like lots of fun as you tested it out with your friends. Beautiful blue damselflies too.Those pizzas looked really delicious! 🍕🍕🍕🐱🏄♂🦋
Love the paddle board❤ take care you two and Alan bless her! Xx
Wow that shelf turned out wonderfully! And that frog was the cutest
👏 Wonderful Music 🎉 Amazing Videography 🌟

I thought we had watched them all the video's but NO this was new to mus clad I click on . thanks you 3
Those pretty blue flies are called Banded Demoiselle :)

'Because she is a bit of a rotund cat'................Just love the use of words there!!
Love the paddle board 😊nice video 😊thank you
Damselflies not damsonflies! 😄😄😄😄 love you guys!!!
😅 Hehe thanks!
I think Making a Narrowboat with nanny and grandad are at that marina. If you get the chance the woodworking they have done inside is beautiful! Lovely video. My boy Marmaduke lives on a harness to go outside. But not sure he'd take to a lifejacket.
Not sure why I missed this , glad you got there !
Marigolds? @TheNomadicCrobot will want a piece of that action!
Great Vlog today, love the Alanboard
Too funny "Prime Lettuce"
Love the paddle boat. So much fun.
I guess you slept in the van while your boat was getting blasted? My wife is desperate to get a SUP, awesome to see Alan & your Scooby doo logo. I'll have to buy a mug! Xx
It was a lovely video.And seeing you all enjoy yourself. The paddle board is lovely with pictures of Alan on she looks so cute.And going out with friends on your paddle board and enjoy it.Thank you for sharing your week. Have a lovely weekend all three of you. 😊😊😽
Wow Ben and Emily the Alan paddle board was amazing. Those pizzas looked really tasty. Take care. Nick
Bloody love you guys 🥰
If it’s a toad they need to have access to the land.
If it’s a frog they are fine in the water. 🙂
They are both amphibious, however toads spend more of their time on land.
We bought a life jacket for our beagle. She fell in and as I grabbed the strap she slipped straight through!!!! Then I was warned that dogs/cats can overheat in life jackets!!! Be careful out there xxx
Just like the Stones song Paint it Black
Alan not joining in with the paddle board fun?... must be a scaredy-cat!
Great vlog you guys, really fun to watch.
Such a happy beautiful video. Pizza's look amazing
Love the paddle board. Enjoy.
Ben and Emily, been watching off and on for a few months. After this one I finally subscribed, it was so beautifully done, cheers...
P.S. Ben, love your music. Some of it puts me in mind of early David Bowie and Van Morrison... the folky, mystical vibe. I mean it mate. Good stuff.
Always enjoy your video's ,Benny you are man of all trades ,what a man Emily ,
