  • We make some minor improvements to our narrowboat home with a bit of DIY, but run into problems with living in a floating home, before setting off back towards Oxford, encountering several mooring challenges unique to life on the rivers 🌿🌊

    You can buy little cup things to sit items with wheels or legs on, to stop them from moving or scratching the floor. I have an old brass bed with wheels that I use them on, to stop it moving in the night lol

    When you think about it, look for a couple of locking replacement wheels for your cart. But you may have already thought about that, lol.

    Just find some plastic lids and sit the caster wheels in the lids so it can't roll around so easily, but you should still be able to pull the cabinet out if you need to, the lids will slide along the floor.

    Hi Amy Wes,how come you two are always smiling and looking so happy,like your new storage unit but it tried to escape lol how did you stop it from moving about ,nice of you to walk into town to but your unwanted unit in a charity shop so kind of you most people would have dump it then walk to town ,the Thames is a lovely river so much to look at the house along the banks if only hay ,that was nice of the lady to let you moor along side her boat don’t see many like that mostly say no mooring lol great blog makes me so happy watching you two till next time take care keep yourself safe 😊,John 👀🇬🇧😂😘🙏🌹🌹🤝🫂🫂😅🤫🤫🫶

    That look of achievement when the PS5 slides into its new home! 😁Mine is still boxed up and I can't wait to get it unpacked when my boat stops looking like a building site! I really miss it and only have my Switch which is also great but y'know.

    Where we are going, we don't need wheels lol ;) I'm happy you are getting river confident, it is good to leave some slack rope incase river level goes down or use snapable tie rap. I'm trying to invent a gadget just for this purpose. Looks very busy out that way, you need a cannon to make more mooring hehe ;)

    Hi Amy, Wes, Nice book shelf, Hope you managed to fix it so that it did not slide. It was very sad when our Queen died. And we are doing well with new PM's. Nice Cruise. Well done Wes for backing up to moor. Good to see Rufus doing Rufus things. Hope Dupes is happy doing Dupes things too. Have a lovely week. Take care.

    Well done with your shelf unit. Hope you managed to find a way of stopping it rolling about😄. Kind of that lady to allow you to moor next to her. Was Rufus ok with being next to someone else? Take care. Nick

    There are castor wheel cups with felt on the bottom especially for furniture, stops furniture from wandering. You need another PM we heard the news in Australia.😮

    That roling cupboard... lol 😛
    You could put a hook on the side of it and secure it to the wall perhaps!
    I have a living room door that wont stay closed, so I use a cute rubber piggy in front of it... but you have a dog so probably not a good solution for you ( the dog may disagree 😛)

    Thank you! The vegan bar sounded interesting. I am finding vegan food to be more expensive here in Oregon, USA. Is that true there also?

      It can be more expensive sometimes, but a lot of uk supermarkets have their own vegan range which is really affordable!

    I’m rewatching this video and I have a question. When they make new money for the king, is the old money with the queen still good? Yes, it’s a silly question but I’m from the USA and really don’t understand.. 😂🤣😂
    I hope it’s the same but what do I know about British rules, lol.

    • @BoatTime
      @BoatTime  11 місяців тому +1

      They have started the money with the king on into circulation but the money with the Queen on is still valid, but no more will be distributed so it will eventually fade out 😊

    I’m buying my first boat in the next 6 months or so, how long are you allowed to stop and moor on the river Thames? Everywhere online says no more than 24 hours… and how far do you have to go again before you can moor somewhere else? I know the rules on the canal but the rules on a river is confusing
