Hello lovely people on UA-cam! We are so sorry to have been away from the channel for so long, and wanted to explain the circumstances: It’s with a heavy heart that we tell you that our relationship has come to an end and that we now must go our separate ways. Very sadly in the coming months will selling our beautiful Lavender Lee. We both have the utmost love and respect for each other, and we look forward to both of us pursuing boat life as individuals, on our own boats. We want to say the hugest THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us. From your generosity on buy me a coffee to the hundreds of kind comments we have received each week- it has been an absolute pleasure getting to know you all and have not taken a single second of that for granted. Thank you so much for all for joining us on our amazing narrowboat adventures. Although shorter than we anticipated, our narrowboat journey has been so important to the both of us, with memories we will always treasure. Lavender Lee will always hold a special place in our hearts as our first home, she is a special boat and I’m sure has many amazing adventures of her own to have in the future, even if it’s not with us❤️ One of us may take over the channel in future to continue documenting our life on the water, so please do stick around if you would like to! Thank you to the amazing community that has formed around our channel, we have loved making videos for you all, and hope that you can understand why we must now step away. We ask for kindness and privacy as we navigate this difficult time. We will be keeping all of our videos on our channel for people to continue to enjoy if they so wish, they are cherished memories for both you guys and us to remember! I know a lot of you have absolutely loved hearing Izzie’s music, so just want to take a moment to link where you can still find Izzies current and I’m sure future music if you would like to follow along and support that! Sending love and light to you all! And thank you from the bottom of our hearts❤️
Awww I knew something was up and I just happen to check out your thames post again and saw this reply. I'm saddened to read this 😢 i hope you both are okay and im sure me and all on your channel will wait around for you to stay in touch. I don't think anyone else has seen this message yet... Take care of yourselves. And remember we all love you both. Love and light from me to you both ❤
Dear Izzie and Ciara, I'm so sorry for your sad news and my heart breaks for you both 💔 Thank you for your lovely message explaining the circumstances, and for your beautiful generosity in 'holding in' we who have been privileged to have followed your shared boat adventure over these months. So, life moves on differently now for you both, but I hope you will be able to cherish the blessing you have been to your subscriber base, who have so enjoyed each episode with Lavender Lee. I shall keep a keen eye on the channel in case - in the future, and no hurry (or pressure!) - either of you was able to continue on with it. And as @LeeHour-s1o has already said - "...remember, we all love you both". Meanwhile, love, prayers and many blessings from down-under. And thank you both; I have so enjoyed the journey 🙏 Richard x
Sending love and light back to you both. Sometimes life takes us in different directions and unexpected journeys. It's heartbreaking. But I have no doubt each of you will find your way.
Gorgeous humans. Thank you. I'm sad you are splitting up but it happens to the best of us. It's part of life's journey. Take care and be happy wherever your paths take you now. Bye for now xx
Please take care of yourselves. It's been an absolute pleasure watching your journeys. Hoping for the best for both of you and Lavender Lee. Enjoy the next chapters of your lives.
We are 💔to hear of your parting we truly thought you were perfect together and soul mates out love goes to you both and wish you all the very best for your futures so sad the oldies 😔😔
Wow hi from Oregon I just popped in to say Izzy your voice is incredible the talent the lyrics the music is wonderful but oh that voice I could listen for days! Take care both of you.
Well done for facing your fears! Seeing your reactions to the boat wakes reminds me of when I was a novice motorcycle rider and tight curves would scare me. In retrospect, those curves were nothing once I had a few hundred miles under my belt. Especially compared to some of the treacherous mountain twisties I'd tackle later on. I have no doubt in a year or so, boat wakes on the Thames won't give you a ripple of nervousness. You've got this!
Hi Izzie and Ciara , lovely warm voice you have Izzie and not forgetting you Ciara , professional lock person . Do you intend to leave the Thames at some point ? Go north onto the canals see other towns n cities .
Dear Lavender, Thank you for getting Izzie and Ciara safely to Hampton Palace moorings, you deserve a lengthy rest. Considering how smoothly you rode the Thames I now wonder if you may have done that journey before; you were so relaxed about it. Maybe someday you might share some of your journeys with us, the viewers, or maybe they will be your secret for ever. Dear Izzie and Ciara Proud of you for stepping SO FAR out of your comfort zones. Now you can have several weeks of peace and hopefully quietness as you get to experience some incredible adventures ahead. Going back along the Tidal Thames will be no different than what you have experienced. Just make sure that you have a full tank of fuel and do those service checks. This run has been good for Lavender's engine considering the higher revs and the length of running time involved. Big hugs to all three of you. Do take care and treat Lavender to something special. Mark Alberta, Canada
Ladies what an achievement. Well done! I remember feeling exactly the same as you when we took out widebeam on exactly the same route from West Drayton to Boveney Lock just past Windsor exactly this time last year. Great vlog, lovely music and editing. I hope everything is going well in Edinburgh and Hampton Court. If you ever plan when you leave to cruise up to Windsor please drop me a pm. I would love to buy you both a coffee and say hi. Have a wonderful weekend xx
Hello! I can never get over all the rubbish in the canals 😢 well done with your cruise. I really hope both your work commitments go well, and you still get time to do your videos. I really enjoy them 😊 more singing please x
Hahahaha…I had so much fun going on this week’s adventure with you! You are real sailors now. There is nothing that either of you can’t handle. As the day went by, I could see that you were really beginning to enjoy yourself on the tidal. It turned out to be a lovely day for an outing on the boat. I always taught my son that nothing is ever as scary as you build it up in your mind to be. So you should just go ahead and face it head on. Anxiety and dread are terrible things. Thank you for showing us the mooring at the end. I would say that your home for the rest of the summer is a nice step up from where you were earlier in the morning. 😊 Jodi and I are having a wonderful summer. It continues to be hot, but we are making the most of it. We are looking forward to an ELO concert in September and of course the grand baby is due in late October. Ciara, have fun in Scotland. I hope that you really enjoy your time up there as much as possible. Come home with a thick brogue so that we can all have a laugh. Be sure to send us updates when you can. Izzie, good luck at your new job. Have fun playing the long dead queen. I know you can bring her to life (I think I am funny even if no one else laughs.) Much love from Ohio, Tim.
Well done you two … what an achievement. Something to be proud of off and a story to tell for years to come … thinking of you both as you move to the next chapter of your adventure … lots of love and best of luck with the new jobs xx
Well done! That's a couple of _very_ long days. I chickened out of the Thames this year (wanted to go up to Oxford) because of all the red boards and locks out of action back in Apr/May, but it look like you've picked a far better time. Enjoy the River!
Phew! That was an exciting episode! I already knew that you made it safely, but I was on the edge of my seat, willing you along safely. You are both amazing. Enjoy your time at the palace, Izzie, and in Edinburgh, Ciara. You are making wonderful memories. Love from Aunty J. XXX
Well there you go two brave and amazing people, doing a crazy surreal thing but it worked. The sound track is spot on as always you never know this journey may inspire some new songs
You both did so well on that tidal stretch! I think doing a something scary like that makes everything seem easier afterwards. I was petrified before doIng the Harecastle Tunnel but this really didn’t turn out to be as bad as I had made out in my head. After that even unrelated things like single handing my way through locks and going on rivers (tidal or not) seem a lot more manageable. You’ve got this!
Love the video. Great music and lovely scenery. The nice thing about living on the canal is you can move a find a area to suit your taste. Sometimes a short cruise can completely change the atmosphere.
good evening Carla and Lzzle i love watching all of your UA-cam videos I hope you are all well and enjoying your adventures on your narrowboat please keep up the good work on your UA-cam videos please keep safe and warm
Awwww how proud we are of you both 🤗🤗 over coming your stress and fear give your selves a pat on the back well done all the best you tpyou both for the new ventures tc luv from the oldies 👍👍🌹🌺🌷🌟🌟🏅🏅
Hello lovelies, just to let you know you are missed. We of course understand that your work commitments and responsibilities must always come first, but you bring so much joy, laughter, fun and wonderful music to your vlogs..following your daily life & antics onboard your floating home is wonderful. Looking forward to the next installment when time allows. Love to you both & Lavender Lee. T xx
Hello again ☺. Well done. Being a northerner I don't know London and have never seen the Thames so thank you for the cruise. Grow a pot of lavender on your boat, great for bites and nettle stings. Just pick it and squeeze until the oil comes out and rub on. Oh by the way, those fish and chips won't be has good as the ones you get on the east yorkshire coast lol 😂. Sending love, light and new job blessings 🍟🎭 xx
Well done both of you for making it to Hampden Court Palace and conquering your fears of cruising up the tidal section of the Thames. Good luck Ciara and Izzie with your projects that are coming up and 1 month in one mooring must be exciting to have time to work plus do some more work on the beautiful Lavender Lee. Take care and have fun ❤
Oh my goodness, what an episode. We were feeling your angst and stress all the way. Kudos to you both, you laid down the challenge, met it and took the prize: chips and battered halloumi and onion rings; way to go you! Such credit and inspiring to us everywhere. I feel what we need is merchandise, T's and caps and sweats etc. Happy to fly the Lavender Lee flag. We had to laugh at your choice of snack - crinkles and squares. They sound like a boring pensioners trip out 🙂. Ciara, just want to wish you a very successful trip to Edinburgh, I know you will rock the show, metaphorically speaking. How you both fit in what you do, and stay as cheery as you do, is amazing. Stay well, safe, and above all, enjoy yourselves you two beautiful people. ERin x 💙🏳⚧🏳🌈
Just seen the end of the Danish Girl, and loved it. Sadly, the real story isn't quite the same. But great cinematography none the less, esp at the station that you helped at, Izzie. Soo hope you get an album out soon, and wish we could get to Hampton and Edinburgh to see you both in action, as it were, and perform. ERin 💙
Hello my lovely grandaughter Izzie & hi to lovely Ciara. I should have primed you to lookout for where I lived for a while at The Anchorage on Riverside, which is at the end of Eel Pie Island, next door to the White Swan Pub and the Hampton Ferry. Being on the tidal bit of the Thames the road which cut across our front garden would flood at high tide and you had to use the back door to leave the property . I absolutely loved living there, so much history- and I loved rowing on the Thames. Not forgetting the delights of Eel Pie Island. So maybe a bit of the river is in your blood!!! Love you both muchly. 🥰
Dear Izzy, Ciara and Lavender Just stopping by to say "hello" and hoping that all is going well at Hampton Palace and Scotland. Hugs to all three, Mark Alberta, Canada
Well done for getting to Hampton Court. It was a pleasure to see you at Hanwell and sorry to hear that you acquired that sheet of material around your prop a little further on; glad you found it before you got out into the river (although the strength of the incoming tide would probably still have taken you up to Richmond!). The usual stretch to catch a sari or similar is closer to Southall (maybe it had been there all along?!). The cruise past Syon House, Richmond, Marble Hill - all wonderful - and you seemed to enjoy it in the end. Good luck with your summer jobs. Izzie - your voice is stunning by the way. Brava!
Thanks for the tour of your adventure up the Thames! You handled the challenge like a pro! Enjoy your time together until your work obligations begin and best wishes on your new endeavours,❤️from🇨🇦
YAAAAY! Well done you made it! And smashed it might I add 😲👏🏻👏🏻 so glad you got the mooring for the month, I think you'll be so much more chilled there hopefully 😊💓 enjoys xx
Im so proud of you both and am very pleased we could get the anchor and life jackets to you in the nick of time! Watching you both do that together was so wonderful to watch. What a fabulous place to moor. We’ll be along to watch you at Hampton Court
Well, yet again ladies, you’ve come up with another entertaining, funny, lovely video. Awwh, Izzie, when you appeared in the cabin wearing your life jacket looking so forlorn, scared & anxious, I didn’t know wether to laugh, cry, or just wished I could give you a great big hug!! You did amazing on the cruise & the help & assurance Ciara kept giving you was amazing. You really are two wonderful young ladies, living your dream & entertaining us all. Can’t wait for the next video of your adventures, it’s just a shame that work dictates you having to be apart from each other so often. Stay safe. 👍🏻💙⚓️
Great video, well done 🎉 I am stressy like you two, I just over think too much ha ha , wow your mooring looks lovely, Ciara are you away for the whole time? Hope not and you get to enjoy the mooring. Good luck Izzie :) ❤
You both did a fantastic job - it’s always extra scary facing challenges outside of your comfort zone that could potentially be life threatening, but you did it, and now you’ve gained a new skill set! And you did it on the internet which is next level! Good luck with the new jobs, and I look forward to seeing around Hampton Court in the coming vlogs!
Yay! You guys did great on the tidal section 🎉 Looking forward to the next video! Hoping Ciara had a good time away with work and Izzie enjoyed the new spot and job! 😁 love, us x
A big well done i did that journey over three spread out days, am i right you did it in one? If so your engine is holding up well and not over heating. The scenery along the tidal is stunning, Eel pie island was trendy in the sixties before my time as a social spot, You are now moored at a lovely spot with Royal parks, gardens and a palace to explore, happy days xx
Hello my friends. I hope that all is going well for you in your new jobs. Just wanted you to know that you both have been on my mind. I know you both miss each other, but your separation is just temporary. Meanwhile, your hearts will just have to grow fonder. The summer heat has finally broken here in Ohio and all is well on the grand baby front as my daughter-in-law enters her last trimester. It is with a full heart that I wish you well from Ohio. Love each other, Tim. ❤
Hello again ☺ Just sent a comment but think it deleted? Well done ⛴🚤. Being a northerner, I don't know London and have never seen the Thames from that prospective, so thanks for the cruise. Get yourselves a pot of lavender for the boat, great for bites and stings. Just pick and rub until the oil comes out of it and apply, very soothing. By the way, fish and chips from down south never as good as those on the east coast of Yorkshire 😆. Sending love, light and new job blessings 🍟🍟xx
Well done Izzie and Ciara! You were both completely amazing and (I feel) right to be a bit nervous about the tidal Thames - Lavender Lee looked so tiny all of a sudden against such a broad expanse of water! That's a beautiful mooring you have there for the next month. I have to be honest and say I've lived away now for so long that I have forgotten the geography, so I'll be pulling up Google Maps in a minute to see where you started and where you finished your long day at the tiller. Best wishes to you both in your respective jobs in the coming weeks. And of course - just LOVE the music that is your sound track for these vlogs ❤ Are you any nearer to having access via Bandcamp available, Izzie? EDIT: OK, all mapped-up - got my bearings now!
Wow! That was something! Tell me: is there GPS for waterways? 🤔 Just wondering how you know where to go, moorings, etc. And I may have missed it: Where is Ciaria going???

What an adventure! well done guys x

Great job what a adventure 👏 your having had every faith in you both enjoy your chips 🍟 ❤

I'm SO GLAD that's over, and you can just chill in one place! I was so nervous! 🥶
18:40 was such a 'Carry On' moment. I had to chuckle. Charles Hawtrey could never. 🤣#CarryOnUpTheCanal
What a great cruise❤️. You have to be very proud that you overcame your fear and eventually enjoy the cruise❤️😍. I enjoyed it a lot 🙋🏼♀️😊❤️
Oh my god well done 😊 you made me have tears of happiness ..😊 i love your spirits.
Wow what a fab adventure! ❤
Woohoo! Congrats on completing your epic cruise!
You both did so well on that tidal stretch!
I think doing a something scary like that makes everything seem easier afterwards.

Love the video. Great music and lovely scenery. The nice thing about living on the canal is you can move a find a area to suit your taste. Sometimes a short cruise can completely change the atmosphere.
Found you via Boat Time and it's so great seeing you enjoy the Thames near me! Have a great trip!

Wow as a mum I was worried sick wondering if you made it. So pleased you did 👍🥰
Jan here from Making New Memories. Well done you two and such a brave move. Make sure you have a swim in the Thames at Hampton. I did and loved it x
Thanks for the tour of your adventure up the Thames! You handled the challenge like a pro! Enjoy your time together until your work obligations begin and best wishes on your new endeavours,❤️from🇨🇦
Well done girls I knew you could do it🤗
I hope you'll be posting another video soon!!
Absolute legends.
Great vlog- nothing stopping your adventures on the rivers and canals now
Well done girls. You are certainly in the best part of London
YAAAAY! Well done you made it! And smashed it might I add 😲👏🏻👏🏻 so glad you got the mooring for the month, I think you'll be so much more chilled there hopefully 😊💓 enjoys xx
Im so proud of you both and am very pleased we could get the anchor and life jackets to you in the nick of time! Watching you both do that together was so wonderful to watch. What a fabulous place to moor. We’ll be along to watch you at Hampton Court
Well, yet again ladies, you’ve come up with another entertaining, funny, lovely video. Awwh, Izzie, when you appeared in the cabin wearing your life jacket looking so forlorn, scared & anxious, I didn’t know wether to laugh, cry, or just wished I could give you a great big hug!! You did amazing on the cruise & the help & assurance Ciara kept giving you was amazing. You really are two wonderful young ladies, living your dream & entertaining us all. Can’t wait for the next video of your adventures, it’s just a shame that work dictates you having to be apart from each other so often. Stay safe. 👍🏻💙⚓️
Great video, well done 🎉 I am stressy like you two, I just over think too much ha ha , wow your mooring looks lovely, Ciara are you away for the whole time? Hope not and you get to enjoy the mooring. Good luck Izzie :) ❤
You both did a fantastic job - it’s always extra scary facing challenges outside of your comfort zone that could potentially be life threatening, but you did it, and now you’ve gained a new skill set! And you did it on the internet which is next level!
Good luck with the new jobs, and I look forward to seeing around Hampton Court in the coming vlogs!
Yay! You guys did great on the tidal section 🎉
Looking forward to the next video! Hoping Ciara had a good time away with work and Izzie enjoyed the new spot and job! 😁 love, us x
So good to see you guys on the Thames! That’s our home turf! We’ll look out for you once you get closer to Henley!
We hope you're both well 🥰
Eagerly awaiting your next video, but understand you guys are busy bees! Stay safe x
Haven't heard from you 2 in what seems like ages, hope you are both OK ❤
A big well done i did that journey over three spread out days, am i right you did it in one? If so your engine is holding up well and not over heating.
The scenery along the tidal is stunning, Eel pie island was trendy in the sixties before my time as a social spot, You are now moored at a lovely spot with Royal parks, gardens and a palace to explore, happy days xx
Amazing adventure, well done & welcome to Surrey!
Love the bit Hampton court to Kingston. Great vlog ladies. Brilliant. Glad u got moored up and all set for the fab new job. Best wishes to u both 🎉
Great job on the Thames! Once again a lovely vlog ❤
The anticipation is always worse than the event. Well done on making it up the Thames! Hope your new jobs are very satisfying.
Awesome! Well done both of you :)
Hello my friends. I hope that all is going well for you in your new jobs. Just wanted you to know that you both have been on my mind. I know you both miss each other, but your separation is just temporary. Meanwhile, your hearts will just have to grow fonder. The summer heat has finally broken here in Ohio and all is well on the grand baby front as my daughter-in-law enters her last trimester. It is with a full heart that I wish you well from Ohio. Love each other, Tim. ❤
Well done ladies 🤓
Wahooo great job guys xxx ❤❤
Go ladies go Xx
Hello again ☺ Just sent a comment but think it deleted? Well done ⛴🚤. Being a northerner, I don't know London and have never seen the Thames from that prospective, so thanks for the cruise. Get yourselves a pot of lavender for the boat, great for bites and stings. Just pick and rub until the oil comes out of it and apply, very soothing. By the way, fish and chips from down south never as good as those on the east coast of Yorkshire 😆.
Sending love, light and new job blessings 🍟🍟xx
Congrats!!!!!
Well done Izzie and Ciara! You were both completely amazing and (I feel) right to be a bit nervous about the tidal Thames - Lavender Lee looked so tiny all of a sudden against such a broad expanse of water! That's a beautiful mooring you have there for the next month. I have to be honest and say I've lived away now for so long that I have forgotten the geography, so I'll be pulling up Google Maps in a minute to see where you started and where you finished your long day at the tiller. Best wishes to you both in your respective jobs in the coming weeks. And of course - just LOVE the music that is your sound track for these vlogs ❤ Are you any nearer to having access via Bandcamp available, Izzie?
EDIT: OK, all mapped-up - got my bearings now!
Is that you signing?
What a beautiful voice
Wow! That was something! Tell me: is there GPS for waterways? 🤔 Just wondering how you know where to go, moorings, etc.
And I may have missed it: Where is Ciaria going???
Hi there, where are you, you are missed. Come back and talk to us all out here who are missing you. 😊
Where are you both we are missing you
Are you ever coming back 😢xx
:)
Hidehi were are you 😢
Please check your email account :)
Glad you made it along the tidal section without issue, and I hope the mooring is better for you than other places have been 🤎
