I watch many of the boattubers but you 2 are def my favourites now. Great video footage, right amount of talking, music that matches the scenes, Rich making me nervous whenever he does anything on the boat, def no H and S stickers for him lol! Fran just lovely always. Could watch for hours. So laid back like me. Best wishes
Enjoying your videos,not got a boat but enjoy the canals.Out with daughter and grandkids today,and met some boaters from New Zealand at the locks,on the grand union they asked us if we wanted to go onboard while they went down in the locks,it’s good to see that kind of spirit with the boaters.Continue to enjoy your journeys god bless rob x
Tip I learnt was to take a photo of the thing you are changing. That way you have that image to refer to. Loving the journey and your vlogs. What a great outlook on life you 2 have
Verg nice footage near Richmond - At 14:30, there is a penny fare row bost thst takes you from Sion House to west of Ham House across the Thames. Bring a 10p cojn just in case fares have gone up
I loved this video. I’ve never felt confident enough do the Thames but after watching you I think I could give it a go. You two just get stuck in and it always works out. Thanks as always.
Love your videos. Beautiful countryside. I am also enamored with the whole narrow boat experience. Fran, you made a comment about the locks when you left the Thames, you said you didn't want to bore us with the technical part of the locks. I would love to learn more about them and how it all works together. Sometimes it's hard to see in the video what's actually happening.....maybe you could go into a bit more detail. I'm sure there are others that would like to see the whole process. Especially when there are like 20 locks on a short stretch of canal. Well maybe not...I'm kind of a geek when it comes to figuring out how stuff works. And...I would love to see a compilation video of all the redecorating you have done. I keep getting bits and pieces and can't seem to find more about different things you've done. Not asking for much...am I???😃😇
Richy doing mechanical thingammy stuff, whatever next! Who could forget you helping me bleed the brakes on my MG rebuild while you sat aboard pressing the clutch pedal up and down😂😂👍🏼👍🏼❤️
I always enjoy your vlogs and it's a great way to see some of the beautiful places that there are in Britain. I'm sorry, but I have to inform you Rich that Yellow Submarine is a Lennon/McCartney song, although sung by Ringo. Keep on enjoying your life afloat and I hope winter is kind to you.
Great, great video. Loved seeing the Hampton Court area. The tidal Thames too. Oh dammit, it's ALL good! The lock-keepers at Brentford must operate in a different geological time zone. In a vlog a few months ago (Jasmin's, I think), their lock booking was for 0730 and the keeper rolled up at 0840 which meant they were battling an increasing tidal flow up to Teddington. I'll be trying to keep up with your hectic pace ;-) from now on but still haven't seen most of your K&A footage yet, so must go back. Very keen to see what your ongoing plan/schedule will be too as winter approaches.
Hi guys. Thank you for another brilliant episode. Well done Rich for fixing your ignition. I wanted to ask you both what you do about your mail. Do you get it sent to your house? Congrats on getting off the Thames. I don’t think I’d like mooring in London. You’ve been very lucky with the weather. As I’m writing this it’s raining everywhere. Be safe and take care both.
Hi, we have been watching your videos for a wee while now, how is the drone helping you if at all. You had some great shots with it that long flight of locks? Thanks Ian
I absolutely love your videos! They are a fantastic treat every episode! I hope you keep enjoying your travels and taking us all along for the ride 😉 Quick question, how do you get post when you are continually cruising?
Hi Beth - our friend who looks after the house sends it to a post office wherever we are. to be honest nowadays most of it is junk as we get bills etc by email. Thanks for watching x
Hi Peter - we need to be past Winkwell locks on the GU by Dec 3 so we're having to give the L and S a miss this time. Thanks for the invite and for watching x Fran.
Great video as always Good point about the litter tho There is a global trend called Plogging Which is people picking up litter while out jogging etc which I think started in Sweden You'll have to think of a name for the narrowboat version of it Eg picking up litter from the water whilst on a narrowboat etc Eg Nogging Lol

Aww thanks RRG. We enjoy so much making the vlogs and to know that you love watching makes it all worthwhile. Fran xx
I agree! So nice and relaxing, and I feel privileged that you guys share your adventures with us. Thank you!
Rich, next time take a photo of the wiring with your phone, so easy to stuff up wiring!
I can just picture Sherlock Homes and Dr. Watson racing down the Themes in that Police steam boat chasing that steam launch

I'll second that. Works a treat...

😂
One thing I always do is take a photo of something before I take it apart. Then I have the photo to review when it comes time to put it back together.
Hi Cheryl - good advice. Thanks for watching.x
@@FloatingOurBoat and try RTV around the connections.
The most natural of the boat-tubers. Great stuff, as always. Keep 'em coming. :o)

looks so nice
"WE..wanted to walk the dogs"...."well YOU did"...hahaha ...rich being as honest as ever... Great fun ...all the best...
Lovely trip
As I "power-watched" all of the previous episodes over only a few days, I'm so happy to have the new episode to watch! Best Wishes from Indiana, USA!
Tanks Lisa - since reading your message days ago I've got 'Indianna wants me' song going round my head - Rich x
@@FloatingOurBoat lol, sorry! You were much better off with Yellow Submarine! ;)

I totally agree. I have been watching for ages, and still haven't a clue about what actually happens when you crank on them things!
Richy doing mechanical thingammy stuff, whatever next! Who could forget you helping me bleed the brakes on my MG rebuild while you sat aboard pressing the clutch pedal up and down😂😂👍🏼👍🏼❤️
Just found you guys and am all caught up. What a lovely couple you are. Fun Fact: The Canadian band Rush lets their drummer write the lyrics.
We did like the screwdriver key 😂🔑👍
Well done with the editing, very atmospheric music. Wwve been on the boat for just over a year now and your vids always give me an itchy tiller hand.
Thanks Col x
You are brave doing some of the tidal Thames. Hope you enjoy being back on canals 😊
To Ringo's defence: he didn't write the tune, it's a Lennon/McCartney composition.
We've enjoyed this vlog, as we always do.
Hooray 16 mins of enjoyment for me to watch coming up
Lovely ! Many thanks. AJ
Another very entertaining video many thanks
That was great, thank you. I particularly enjoyed seeing Hampton Court, Kingston, Richmond stretch of the river, I grew up near there.
Seriously did you just describe a pump out as a lovely experience? Wow 😲

Hi Andy, our housekeeper keeps it for us and sends it to a post office wherever we are. Thanks again x
Nope. That definitely wasn't Jamaica!
In the town where I was born........🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵
I hear a Bob Marley/Beatles remix coming on 😉

Ian
Hi Ian. Due to restrictions it's difficult to fly the drone in London. Another reason yo get back in the countrside. Thanks for watching.
Hello again I have listened to "you and me" and its not the track. Could you please let me know what is the intro track to your vlogs. Many tanks..

@@FloatingOurBoat many thanks, lovely tune, I'm more of a metal head but your tune reflects the calmness of how it should be living on the cut...
Cheers Gaz glad you're enjoying.

Hi Rich did you get caught up in the Annual Draw Down at Teddington /Richmond ?
Hi Ramsey - no we got through all ok - thanks for watching.
Sluices on a bridge??
guys great journey If you are planning on coming to the river lee or Stort stop by for a cuppa Peter The Old Swan
Hi Peter - we need to be past Winkwell locks on the GU by Dec 3 so we're having to give the L and S a miss this time. Thanks for the invite and for watching x Fran.
Wow what a day you guys. Happy you made it. Will try and meet up soon. Love you XX
Hi Bob - heading up north very soon xx see ya then loadsa love xx
Great video as always
Good point about the litter tho
There is a global trend called
Plogging
Which is people picking up litter while out jogging etc which I think started in Sweden
You'll have to think of a name for the narrowboat version of it Eg picking up litter from the water whilst on a narrowboat etc
Eg
Nogging
Lol
