    A big hello to Heidi from Richard now in New Zealand. I've been here over thirty year, but I'm an Expat from Allesley, Coventry.
    I enjoy watching UA-cam with bits of England in it, plus I have an old friend Frank who has a part share in a narrow boat.
    I think if I was to ever return to England, it would be with a narrow boat, but without any experience, it would be very daunting!
    I have lived semi rural for most of my life, so narrow boating would be for me, pacing through the (mostly) beautiful countryside.
    Meeting a lady boat owner would be a good start, but that was not a hint lol.
    Happy cruising Heidi.

    I really enjoyed this video. The Llangollen canal is beautiful especially out of the tourist season. I had to smile when you put the rum into your hot drink. You’re right about the dredging. Sometimes the bottom gets to near the top.

    2:30 I’m in Sydney’s inner west, a stones throw from Glebe and Newtown. I’m sitting out on my little balcony in a T-shirt and.....I’m drinking an alcohol-ick beverage.
    It’s almost 7:30pm (time for Shaun the Sheep on the telly) and a lovely 23°C. The humidity is at 73%, with winds at 19km/h.
    And despite ALL of that, I’d much rather be there on the cut, looking at those beautiful views, breathing that crisp morning air and definitely opening up those faffing bloody swing bridges for you.
    Take care

    Absolutely loved this one Cap’n H!
    The camerawork is just heartbreakingly beautiful.
    I’ve only experienced that magic once when I was having to work in Evesham and had to drive to a meeting through the Cotswolds at dawn in the summer. As usual my satnav set the controls to “goat track”. I found myself driving along a wooded wide valley with a fine mist clinging to the paddocks like a haze of woodsmoke and the early dawn sun lit the valley all along with shadows in the mist and that enchanting golden light. I could have wept it was so lovely.

    Hello Heidi, I've just found your channel and have found your vlogs fantastic. I'm so envious of your lifestyle.
    We spent 2 months in the UK Oct-Nov 2019 and toured around UK, Scotland (including Skye), wales etc. One place we stayed was near Bath. Our son who lives in Hereford meet us there and took us to Bradford on Avon. I worked the lock there for a long boat ( just because I could say I've done it. It tuckerd me out so we had to adjourn to the Lock Inn afterwards, LOL ;-)
    Keep Vloging and I'll keep liking and watching. All the best

    Strangely, I felt as though I would prefer to be there with you, opening the lift/swing bridges.
    What an Adventure.
    Then I took another sip of whiskey (just enough to wet the lips) and reality returned.
    I really enjoyed seeing the visual effects you included this week with the drone and that magic stick camera. It looked like someone was following you around doing the photography. Brilliant.

    Hi there Heidi. Just calling in from Nz. Have just discovered your channel, and after about 2 minutes I decided to subscribe.
    Three of us back in 2008 hired a narrow boat during the shoulder season and ended up on the Llangollen Canal and finished up in the village itself. Of course going into shops, the first question asked was what country we are from. Then the subject turned to rugby. Anyway......I'm loving your presentation, just everything about the channel. Thanks for taking the time to upload and share.
    Merry Christmas and season greetings. Atb, from down under.

    I love watching you and your wonderful sense of humor when things get rough. And your music is so perky and uplifting. You cannot help but tap your foot or jig to it's jaunty rhythm. You perk up my day, thank you. Oh yes, and I love your sound effects! Thanks!

      At 9:20 I spotted a narrowboat with solar panels on the side, I haven’t seen that before, good idea. Enjoy your wood heater and a nip!😊 9:20

    Hi Heidi, yep I was sitting in my nice warm home with a hot beverage watching you freeze your knackers off as you put it. It was well worth it in the end, the view by the lake is stunning. Hope you have a lovely Christmas, cant wait to see the new paintwork. ❣

    Thanks again and take care.

    P.s I know that this is an older video, but if you ever need to remove the residue from a sticker, eucalyptus oil and a lint free cloth is amazing at removing it. Just a good little tip 🙂
