I maybe biased Robbie but what a great vlog, possibly your best ever:) It was a brilliant day thank you, and I am now in the book, fantastic. Good luck with the new series.
Hi all. Just a quick update from me. I am now 121 days sober and loving life. Thank you for all of the kind messgaes of encouragement and to Robbie for his continuing support. The last few months have been truly life changing and to have support out there is aamazing so thank you all.
Well done Barry and Robbie for sharing the experience. Recovery groups like AA have given me the best years of my life and brought me to a point where I began to develop a passion for sailing the waterways. Keep it up! 😊
Good luck with the filming. The first series was really something - we really enjoyed it and look forward to season two - although we certainly will miss you here.
We like Azera coffee with cream too 😋. Glad you're on the move again and nice to hear Naughty Lass' engine chugging along the canal. Good luck with the new series. 😊
Great to see you out and about filming again. I'll give you a tip: I think you need a good pair of nitrile gloves and snug work gloves over them (for when your cranking), and some stylus'. I use these all the time while working in the field. I work as an engineer for a county sanitation district here in the states, "trust me, keeping my hands clean and germ (poopoo) free is a priority." Cheers to Barry on his sobriety, your attitude and outlook on life improve ten fold when you come to the realization that you don't need alcohol to make you happy, there are plenty of other things in life to take it's place.
Absolutely stoked to see Anna described as 'stepdaughter' - I was hoping it was heading that way, you sure deserve it. She and Alice are both very lucky ladies!
Yes it was a great video, thanks to Barry for sharing his story. Loved the messy cooking bonus feature! Chester looked so pretty , inspired to visit when lockdown ends. I hope your step daughter can see her cute frozen transfer on the vlog. All the best!
I’m with your girlfriend - you are a messy bugger in the kitchen - loved the way you hammed it up, especially the fall to the floor~ Great vlog, and good luck wth the new series. Cheers from Tasmania, Down Under.
Eh up Robbie nice to see your ok . It was wonderful to hear the Naughty Lass cranking on the canal once again missed that wonderful sound , glad to hear Barry has taken the leap and is doing well with his sobriety, I have been 27 years in September this year sober , it is hard work but I don't miss having a drink at all , good luck in filming your second series ,I look forward to watching that !! Ps Carnation milk in coffee the dogs !!
Great video! So professional and witty. The cooking scenes were a hoot! I have missed the sound of the Naughty Lass's Lister. Good luck with making the new series.
Best vlog yet Robbie!. Myself, Sharon, Frodo the dog, and Billy the pony are trying to learn as much as possible from you until we can explore the cut again, and eventually buy a narrowboat
Good to see you back on the water again. As you say, some of us are still in lockdown with no overnight stay so we are just waiting patiently for CRT to give us a green light. Looking forward to series 2
WONDERFUL! Your back ...So looking forward to travelling the waterways with you again..From the comfort of my sofa (which is lovely this time of year )..KEEP CRANKING IT ROBBIE 👍
Wow I have really missed the sound of that lister . Hope you have enjoyed Chester absolutely wonderful city and waterfront. We still stuck on the leeds Liverpool so extremely jealous at the moment. It would be interesting to know just how many boats have no alcohol on board,not many would be my guess . Not sure about the chilli mate.. Have a great day and enjoy the quiet canal.
enjoyed the first 3 episodes of your tv series but then they just finished for some reason, looking forward to season 2 though good luck with the filming, great vlog btw
Brilliant vlog Robbie,great to see your cruising again mate and best wishes on you now getting filming your next series even though it’s later than you would have liked. Can’t wait to view it,take care stay safe and best wishes to you and yours.👌👍
Thank you for explaining the transfer on your neck. I was seriously concerned that isolation drove you so bonkers that you broke out and got a Disney tattoo from an underground tattoo artist. Regarding chili con carne: I learned my go to recipe in East Texas where, unlike West Texas, they use beans and tomatoes. Fresh tomatoes are always luverly, but tinned, diced work quite well in case you ever find yourself in a culinary wasteland...
Congratulations on the starting of your second season, great news pal. I could only find the first 3 episodes of your first season on Sky catch up. I’ve just tried again today and it’s totally gone now which I’m gutted about, I was really enjoying it too 😓. Anyway great to see you on the move again. Cheers, Ant 👍
Great video. Barry is an inspiration. He’s done so well and is a great ambassador for an alcohol free life. I love a drink and the evening never seems complete if I don’t have a G&T but to be honest during lockdown I was feeling like it was starting to affect my health and my memory! So I decided to stop. I’m now having just a tonic with ice and a slice and I’m really enjoying it and I’m richer. Mind you I did but 4 cans of Guinness for this weekend but just for medicinal purposes 😁 Thanks as always for sharing your adventure. I can’t wait for the next series of Canal Boat Diaries, without a G&T!
Good to see you back on the cut Robbie. I've been making a few offers on narrowboats as I'm about to become a continuous cruiser. Do you think I'll have any problems with the current lockdown rules? Fair play to Barry! I gave up drinking 7 years ago and never looked back.
We would love to be able to go somewhere BUT a lock on a river and the only way to get on the caulder network is blocked because of a sandbank. Been stuck for last 3 months here in Yorkshire, nice place though and got on a leisure mooring for 21 quid a week with power and a locked gate with only 5 other live on boats, one of which is my son's.
Well done Robbie, you are an inspiration to us all. I am really looking forward to seeing Series 2 and I hope that this will include the Lancaster canal. The Calder & Hebble handspikes are truly rubbish, mine broke at the first lock so I used a mooring pin instead which proved to be an excellent solution to the problem as without it were going nowhere. Stay safe, keep cranking and I look forward to your next voyage. Cheers and Beers, Dave
Probably worth noting Robbie. In about a weeks time the footy is back, and its on the telly for free (mostly). Probably would be a great time to get chunks of filming done for the TV because the tow paths (and for that matter the cut in general) should be a bit quieter while its on. Tiiiiiiiiiip of the weeeeeeek.
great vid. not been home to chester in over 6 years., so great to see familiar sights, although sad to see it so quiet. telfords was always full of students but a nice pub. hope to see some clips through blacon and mollington on your way to e'port in part 2 . we used to do our school cross country run along that section. some fancy bridges along there.
Great video Robbie, thanks for sharing, it’s always refreshing to hear people thinking of others rather than just themselves which sadly is certainly the impression portrayed in the media quite often these days. We took the decision to “lockdown” a couple of weeks prior to the official advice due to vulnerable relatives and glad we did. All the best mate, will no doubt adapt, stay safe and better safe than sorry with all the cleaning. Paul
Kudos, Robbie, for helping a guy out. I have a good friend, retired attorney (don't hold that against him), who's ~40 years sober and =still= goes to AA meetings at least weekly. Even when traveling around the world, he'd do his best to find a meeting. Congrats to Barry for making a tough decision!
Robbie Cumming Sorry if I wasn’t paying proper attention to the porridge making, but I thought you said you were adding cream rather than milk. I’m sure you know how best to do it without my intervention. I forgot to say in the first message how wonderful to hear you’re in the process of making the second TV series, and hope it doesn’t get too frustrating achieving the end goal.
A nice vlog, great editing with really good images.9:14 reminded me of the reaction I get to some jokes I tell. Nice one Barry. Glad you are feeling good.
Loved the cheeky cookery demo. Robbie! I made many visits to Chester on the old Crosville buses from home on the Wirral as a child, so I am indulging happily in nostalgia. However I was totally unaware of there being a canal in Chester. I used to be taken to walk along the river Dee and feed the ducks.Thank you Robbie that your vlogs never fail to lift my spirits, inform and entertain and often make me laugh.
When doing Chilli Con Carne I always use a tin of chopped tomatoes & chilli beans in chilli sauce. You can also add garlic, turmeric, paprika, cumin and garam masala to flavour. Best served with crusty bread.
Never buy tins of chopped tomatoes they are just the scrap bits and sweepings off the floor get peeled plum and chop them yourself you know what you are getting then
Thanks for a really great vlogg, I especially enjoyed you making the chilli 🌶 , i did actually laugh out loud, so thanks again for that. I must say i admire the fact your boat isn’t completely tidy, made me feel better about the way my bost gets sometimes 😄. Keep safe, all the best 👍😃
I wish I could see your series here (can't view iPlayer outside UK) but this nicely crafted vlog makes up for it. A vlogger that uses cutaways rather than jump cuts, nice montage of WAs to tell a visual story, and mix of info and entertainment... raising the bar yet again, Robbie. Nice one.. keep safe.
Good on ya Barry, many more wonderful days to come! You've got a real fine boat there too bud, we're pullin for ya here in El Paso :) Oh yea, Hey Rob =P chili suggestions .. add chili powder and ground cumin ....voila
Excellent strength Barry, your world is starting to turn again. Pity about the pandemic . Well done Robbie, a friend indeed,suffering his own withdrawal in solitude . Great vlog.
Wow! As you flew a drone over Stourport on Severn basin (canalboat diaries) I could see my boat moored at the yacht club!! The nearest I've been to being on telly - and she looked better than I would have...
Hi Friend, Good to see you out and about! Here's quick chili recipe...1 chopped onion, mince, seasoning, can of beans and a jar of your favorite salsa. Try that one, It's really good and quick. Peace from the USA
CONGRATULATIONS Barry on your sobriety. My husband has been sober for over 20 years now. Just remember this. If times get hard PRAY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER PRAYED BEFORE IN YOUR LIFE. God will bring you threw everything. I'm a knower of God's work. I'm happy you've joined us, @ least me & my husband. Take good care of yourself sir. Robbie I'm glad that wasn't a tattoo on your neck. A hicky I would understand. Thought the lockdown made you go nuts & get a tattoo..... lol..... You can be messy in the kitchen. But you just have to work harder to clean it up. So don't be messy & you can set down faster... hehehehe..... IT did look yummy. Glad your back on the water. Have fun, be safe, Chris from Missouri
Great to see you back on the naughty Lass, hope you don’t miss having company too much. Don’t know about catching scurvy,I thought you’d got the black spot though before you showed us what it was 😂 good luck Barry,well done mate.
Great vlog Robbie. Fantastic city Chester is. When I was there I did the walk around the city on that wall. A big well done and good luck for the future to Barry Frost. Take care pal and keep safe plus keep crankin it... 😋🤗🥂
Top, top vlog Robbie! 😀 It had it all ... - Drum 'n' Bass vibes - Superb filming - A lovely bloke called Barry - Sailor tattoo (sort of) - Beer of the week (sort of) - Messy con carne - Lots and lots of laughs Simply brilliant. The best thing I've watched during lockdown. You should be on the telly 😉 Good luck with season 2 filming!
Glad you back cranking it Robbie,didn’t realise you are a master chef nice chilli concarni,crap at spelling soz,you descent bloke helping Barry,glad he is on the mend,and you gone very posh ,cream in coffee we have semi skimmed milk,we’ll you deserve it ,and working for the BBC ,looking forward to the new episode on telly,keep cranking man .👍
Glad to see you have respect for us oldies..many young ones have not,in respect to the corona risk...it's no way over for us older people,far from it...lock down for me continues ..stay safe xxx
Great to see you back out Robbie. Your milk dislike might have arrived due to lactose intolerance. I am the same and now buy lactose free milk. The result no issues there. Covid-19 will change things for everyone I think we will adapt. You must be thrilled to be back out cruising on Naughty Lass again . Hope you've had a safe trip to Chester. Keep safe and dry and virus free.
Hi David, I was allergy tested at the start of the year, milk certainly flagged up but lactose (the sugar part) was actually ok. A cream kefir and yoghurt intolerance came up too but thankfully I was told a break from these things is all that’s needed sometimes to overcome 🤞Thanks for watching David hope you are well, stay safe!
Keep it up Barry - I am 10 years booze-free. Best thing I ever did - Alcohol is shit and far too many people are problem drinkers which can turn into full blown alcoholism. One day at a time Barry - that's all you have to do, one day at a time.
Yar me hearty, welcome back. Robbie, isn't chilly con carne supposed to have chilly in it? Half a bottle of Tabasco sauce is no substitute. Well done to Barry on his achievement.
Barry spoke about the shakes, well suffered that and got by with a large glass of Egyptian brandy before going into the mess hall, the brandy help keep the cornflakes on the spoon. That was way back and halve cut down on drinking a lot, I now have a drink or three for pleasure, not that I need one. Hardly open the liqueur cabinet unless friends come by, couple of cans of the lowest proof beer to cool down after walking the dog, maybe a session once a week of 3 pts to talk english with a Brit neighbor or someone's wedding/birthday. Enjoying life and the corn flakes stay on the spoon without help.
I maybe biased Robbie but what a great vlog, possibly your best ever:) It was a brilliant day thank you, and I am now in the book, fantastic. Good luck with the new series.
Congratulations on giving up the sauce Barry. Best of luck in the coming years. Enjoy your life and keep on smiling!
Good on you Barry. Life on the cut does seem to go hand in hand with alcohol. Fingers crossed it all works out for you...
I can tell by listening to you that you’ve taken back control Barry, keep at it, well done and all the best for the future 👍
brill barry! you'll always have support here 😊
Ps. I finished with the stuff 5 years ago and actually hate the taste of it now lol
Hi all. Just a quick update from me. I am now 121 days sober and loving life. Thank you for all of the kind messgaes of encouragement and to Robbie for his continuing support. The last few months have been truly life changing and to have support out there is aamazing so thank you all.
Well Done Barry… a great story… thanks for sharing it
Wow! Amazing story, Robbie and Barry! All the best in your continued recovery! You know have a new 'crew' pulling for you!
My eyes are watering when Barry talks about stopping. So hard mate, such an awful illness. Go well.
Well done Barry and Robbie for sharing the experience. Recovery groups like AA have given me the best years of my life and brought me to a point where I began to develop a passion for sailing the waterways. Keep it up! 😊
Aaawwwww that was just lovely what Barry said. Good luck Barry you are a gem of a guy. Happy days belong to you. X
Thanks for sharing Barry. Lovely to see you moving on the canal again Robbie.
AA kept my Father in Law alive for years by helping him stay sober one day at a time. Gereat group of people.
Nice one David. I'm glad your Dad found AA. AA kept me sober for three and a quarter happy years. I thank them for those times.
This guy could drive anyone to drink!
Good luck with the filming. The first series was really something - we really enjoyed it and look forward to season two - although we certainly will miss you here.
We like Azera coffee with cream too 😋. Glad you're on the move again and nice to hear Naughty Lass' engine chugging along the canal. Good luck with the new series. 😊
Great shot of Snowgoose and the white ducks! Great to get your life back Barrie 😃👍. Keep up the fight lad, don’t let the booze back 🌟
Great to see you out and about filming again. I'll give you a tip: I think you need a good pair of nitrile gloves and snug work gloves over them (for when your cranking), and some stylus'. I use these all the time while working in the field. I work as an engineer for a county sanitation district here in the states, "trust me, keeping my hands clean and germ (poopoo) free is a priority."

Very enjoyable video. Congratulations to Barry. Keep it up. Perhaps you'll start a trend on the cut!! 😊
Absolutely stoked to see Anna described as 'stepdaughter' - I was hoping it was heading that way, you sure deserve it. She and Alice are both very lucky ladies!
Glad to see ya back cruising. Robbie, please congratulate Barry. Job well done sir

Yay! Excellent Barry! Lovely seeing my home town on your vlog and the telebox too thanks Robbie!
I’m with your girlfriend - you are a messy bugger in the kitchen - loved the way you hammed it up, especially the fall to the floor~
Great vlog, and good luck wth the new series.
Cheers from Tasmania, Down Under.

Congratulations Barry, 3 years sober on the 01/01/21 myself. All thanks to AA. Keep coming back Barry!

Best of luck with series two, looking forward to seeing it
WONDERFUL! Your back ...So looking forward to travelling the waterways with you again..From the comfort of my sofa (which is lovely this time of year )..KEEP CRANKING IT ROBBIE 👍
Wow I have really missed the sound of that lister . Hope you have enjoyed Chester absolutely wonderful city and waterfront. We still stuck on the leeds Liverpool so extremely jealous at the moment. It would be interesting to know just how many boats have no alcohol on board,not many would be my guess . Not sure about the chilli mate.. Have a great day and enjoy the quiet canal.
Loved the colours.... especially the BLUE blue blue skies. So refreshing and uplifting. Just like your videos. :-) Best wishes!
enjoyed the first 3 episodes of your tv series but then they just finished for some reason, looking forward to season 2 though good luck with the filming, great vlog btw
Brilliant vlog Robbie,great to see your cruising again mate and best wishes on you now getting filming your next series even though it’s later than you would have liked.
Can’t wait to view it,take care stay safe and best wishes to you and yours.👌👍

Congratulations on the starting of your second season, great news pal.
I could only find the first 3 episodes of your first season on Sky catch up. I’ve just tried again today and it’s totally gone now which I’m gutted about, I was really enjoying it too 😓.

Fair play to Barry! I gave up drinking 7 years ago and never looked back.
Nah you’ll be right mate 😎👍
We would love to be able to go somewhere BUT a lock on a river and the only way to get on the caulder network is blocked because of a sandbank.

Well done Robbie, you are an inspiration to us all. I am really looking forward to seeing Series 2 and I hope that this will include the Lancaster canal. The Calder & Hebble handspikes are truly rubbish, mine broke at the first lock so I used a mooring pin instead which proved to be an excellent solution to the problem as without it were going nowhere. Stay safe, keep cranking and I look forward to your next voyage. Cheers and Beers, Dave
Cheers Dave
Coors, yo! Can't wait till "Canal Boat Diaries" finally comes ashore in the US or online in some way. Great time. Thanks.
Probably worth noting Robbie. In about a weeks time the footy is back, and its on the telly for free (mostly). Probably would be a great time to get chunks of filming done for the TV because the tow paths (and for that matter the cut in general) should be a bit quieter while its on. Tiiiiiiiiiip of the weeeeeeek.
Great to see you back on the move Robbie. That's my fav coffee too will have to try with double cream. Take care and stay safe
Great vlog Robbie. Congrats and Best of luck to Barry!
I'd say you've added, positively, to many people's lives Robbie. Chapeau! And, long may you continue to crank it so!
Just finished watching the little gem of a 'first' series.Enjoyed the journey and wonderful shots.Don't forget to do a show in Ireland!
Hey Robbie. Great vids as always. Hope you're well & happy. Rog the Dodge with love from the Steel City. X
Cheers Rog good to hear from you mate
great vid. not been home to chester in over 6 years., so great to see familiar sights, although sad to see it so quiet. telfords was always full of students but a nice pub. hope to see some clips through blacon and mollington on your way to e'port in part 2 . we used to do our school cross country run along that section. some fancy bridges along there.
Cheers I think you’ll enjoy episode one of the upcoming BBC series I made then as it features the return journey.
@@RobbieCumming ill look out for it but not in uk so will have to wait for it to go online
Yeah it’ll get uploaded on youtube by someone I bet!
Just the way the elites like it, quiet #NWO
The falling down was funny. Why no chili powder in the chili? Glad to see you back.
I didn’t have any! I do now though so it’s all good 🥵
Great video Robbie, thanks for sharing, it’s always refreshing to hear people thinking of others rather than just themselves which sadly is certainly the impression portrayed in the media quite often these days. We took the decision to “lockdown” a couple of weeks prior to the official advice due to vulnerable relatives and glad we did. All the best mate, will no doubt adapt, stay safe and better safe than sorry with all the cleaning. Paul
I wish everybody thought about masking as you. That is the intelligent way to think of " to mask or not to mask" .
My missus also says I make a mess in the kitchen.
Kudos, Robbie, for helping a guy out. I have a good friend, retired attorney (don't hold that against him), who's ~40 years sober and =still= goes to AA meetings at least weekly. Even when traveling around the world, he'd do his best to find a meeting. Congrats to Barry for making a tough decision!
Great vlog again Robbie and much respect to Barry, hope the new series goes well keep up the good work😎👍🏼
Try making your porridge with just water and a bit of salt Robbie. Usually comes out smooth and creamy texture if not heated too rapidly.
That’s what i did though
Robbie Cumming Sorry if I wasn’t paying proper attention to the porridge making, but I thought you said you were adding cream rather than milk. I’m sure you know how best to do it without my intervention. I forgot to say in the first message how wonderful to hear you’re in the process of making the second TV series, and hope it doesn’t get too frustrating achieving the end goal.
A nice vlog, great editing with really good images.9:14 reminded me of the reaction I get to some jokes I tell. Nice one Barry. Glad you are feeling good.
Love the Naughty Lass cooking segment. Crank it with Tobacsco!!
Loved the cheeky cookery demo. Robbie! I made many visits to Chester on the old Crosville buses from home on the Wirral as a child, so I am indulging happily in nostalgia. However I was totally unaware of there being a canal in Chester. I used to be taken to walk along the river Dee and feed the ducks.Thank you Robbie that your vlogs never fail to lift my spirits, inform and entertain and often make me laugh.

Good on ya Barry, many more wonderful days to come! You've got a real fine boat there too bud, we're pullin for ya here in El Paso :) Oh yea, Hey Rob =P chili suggestions .. add chili powder and ground cumin ....voila
Excellent strength Barry, your world is starting to turn again. Pity about the pandemic . Well done Robbie, a friend indeed,suffering his own withdrawal in solitude . Great vlog.
Love the channel mate...finally subscribed after watching you from day one! Keep up the good work from Wolverley! Funny bugger u are!
Wow! As you flew a drone over Stourport on Severn basin (canalboat diaries) I could see my boat moored at the yacht club!! The nearest I've been to being on telly - and she looked better than I would have...
Hi Friend, Good to see you out and about! Here's quick chili recipe...1 chopped onion, mince, seasoning, can of beans and a jar of your favorite salsa. Try that one, It's really good and quick. Peace from the USA
Might try that for hubby! ❤️Dozy and Dim narrowboat adventures ❤️
CONGRATULATIONS Barry on your sobriety. My husband has been sober for over 20 years now.
Just remember this. If times get hard PRAY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER PRAYED BEFORE IN YOUR LIFE. God will bring you threw everything. I'm a knower of God's work. I'm happy you've joined us, @ least me & my husband. Take good care of yourself sir.
Robbie I'm glad that wasn't a tattoo on your neck. A hicky I would understand. Thought the lockdown made you go nuts & get a tattoo..... lol.....
You can be messy in the kitchen. But you just have to work harder to clean it up. So don't be messy & you can set down faster... hehehehe..... IT did look yummy.
Glad your back on the water. Have fun, be safe,
Chris from Missouri
Great to see you back on the naughty Lass, hope you don’t miss having company too much. Don’t know about catching scurvy,I thought you’d got the black spot though before you showed us what it was 😂 good luck Barry,well done mate.
Great vlog Robbie. Fantastic city Chester is. When I was there I did the walk around the city on that wall. A big well done and good luck for the future to Barry Frost. Take care pal and keep safe plus keep crankin it... 😋🤗🥂
Really enjoying your BBC four series.
Great to see you back on the cut!
Great vlog, All the best to Barry.
CONGRATS Barry!!!! Keep up the good vibes!
I thought that was one of your best episodes to date dude.
Great to see you are on the move again. Can’t wait till the rest of us can get cruising.
Lister Cranking 👑King 👑 Robbie 👑 Love from Adelaide Australia 👍👍💖
Top, top vlog Robbie! 😀 It had it all ...
- Drum 'n' Bass vibes
- Superb filming
- A lovely bloke called Barry
- Sailor tattoo (sort of)
- Beer of the week (sort of)
- Messy con carne
- Lots and lots of laughs
Simply brilliant. The best thing I've watched during lockdown.
You should be on the telly 😉
Good luck with season 2 filming!
Thanks mate ha ha 😉

Another great video. Best of luck with filming for the new series :)
Didn't think it would take long the old hand signs and the odd majik word.
Rock on, Barry!! Stay strong. Great that you're taking control of your life. You've got this!
Well done Barry!
It may be drinkable but it won't get you pissed..love from Ireland
Ah, you are back ! good to see you.
That's a cool bit of wood with the Naughty Lass written on it! Was that a custom piece for the boat?
Great isn’t it - custom Calder and Hebble spike. A gift from crank it crew member Holly’s Dad after he snapped my original in the paddle gear 💪😂
Glad to see you have respect for us oldies..many young ones have not,in respect to the corona risk...it's no way over for us older people,far from it...lock down for me continues ..stay safe xxx
Great to see you back out Robbie.
Your milk dislike might have arrived due to lactose intolerance.
I am the same and now buy lactose free milk. The result no issues there.
Covid-19 will change things for everyone I think we will adapt.
You must be thrilled to be back out cruising on Naughty Lass again .
Hope you've had a safe trip to Chester.
Keep safe and dry and virus free.
Hi David, I was allergy tested at the start of the year, milk certainly flagged up but lactose (the sugar part) was actually ok. A cream kefir and yoghurt intolerance came up too but thankfully I was told a break from these things is all that’s needed sometimes to overcome 🤞Thanks for watching David hope you are well, stay safe!
Keep it up Barry - I am 10 years booze-free. Best thing I ever did - Alcohol is shit and far too many people are problem drinkers which can turn into full blown alcoholism. One day at a time Barry - that's all you have to do, one day at a time.
Yar me hearty, welcome back. Robbie, isn't chilly con carne supposed to have chilly in it? Half a bottle of Tabasco sauce is no substitute. Well done to Barry on his achievement.
Did not have chilli onboard Joss so just had to make do! Got some now tho 🧐👍
Great video as always and 👍to Barry.
Barry spoke about the shakes, well suffered that and got by with a large glass of Egyptian brandy before going into the mess hall, the brandy help keep the cornflakes on the spoon.
That was way back and halve cut down on drinking a lot, I now have a drink or three for pleasure, not that I need one. Hardly open the liqueur cabinet unless friends come by, couple of cans of the lowest proof beer to cool down after walking the dog, maybe a session once a week of 3 pts to talk english with a Brit neighbor or someone's wedding/birthday. Enjoying life and the corn flakes stay on the spoon without help.
Love. Blessings from California. You are so good . .
