Hello, im the painter behind the 4 seasons boat you passed, it was painted on behalf of the owners at dewsbury marina. Id happily share some more work if youd like to see. Many thanks for the kind words.. Squidge
Oh wow I'd love to see your work. I've just painted mine camoflage. I'm very critical of my own work. My brother was going to help me he was a great artist but sadly died 3 years ago.
Our favourite quick and tasty meal when camping. One ripe banana and 2 eggs whipped together and you have perfect pancake batter. Nothing else needed. Cook as per any pancake and serve with Bacon or as a sweet with strawberries and yoghurt. Noodle soup made with 2minute noodles and any veggies easy peasy!
You have to read it like a pirate: I one knew a lass, that sailed a ship. It filled with but rum, no mate have a sip. A long ship she be, with her captain at sea. And when she reached land, she share it with me. The flag that is flown, a skull and cross bone. It's nothing to toy with, that ship be her home. So raise your cup highly, and drink of the rum, and if you don't do it, you sure be a bum.
Your editiing and music selection skills are fantastic, and are a rather fine compliment to your narration skills as well. However, your content and personality are what truly makes this channel !!! Cheers from a small town in Alabama. Woo Hoo!
Mate i'm a fellow narrowboater 90% through a FULL refit from bare metal and was watching a video tour of your boat from 3 YEARS ago to steal ideas. It made me really happy to click your channel link and see that you're still crackin and knockin out content. I got an extra kick out of the fact that you're currently driving around my home city of Manchester. As i'm typing this your video showed you on the Leigh branch of the canal which is where the other half of my family are from. So random!! Anyway, your content is brilliantly produced and you yourself are a pleasure to listen to. That bit about the orange water tickled me. Keep making content and people will keep watching it!!!
This is the most joyful and uplifting point of my week. Thank you Heidi & Bonnie! The true measure of a person’s humanity is their regard for animals (such that dogs and cats are)- I love how you work with Bonnie (not that you mentioned it, just that it is evident!).
Hello Heidi, nice to see things are going great for you on the canals. And I’m glad that you’ve enjoyed the Bridgewater Canal it looks extremely beautiful from what I saw of it. And your videos always bring a laugh to my day when I watch what antics you’ll get up to this week. I’ve particularly liked the fact that you explored some wide-beams in your recent videos. All in all, I’m glad that you and Bonnie are happy healthy and have had fair weather. Hopefully you have calm weather and sunny days in the future. Ben from Australia 🇦🇺
What a great Sunday roast on Tuesday😆 It’s lovely to be see you back among the boating people, they are so lovely and generous. I enjoyed the towns and houses but I agree living in the lighthouse would be a blast. You need to put the ditties in a book and sell them, with the writers permission, I’d buy one. Linda
Love your beginning with Twirly Whirly Woofer Bonny doing her stuff, lovely little woofer. I love poached egg on crumpet for a quick lunch. Have to freeze crumpets individually though but the mixture of loads of butter and egg yolk in the holes of toasted crumpet is so yummy.
What a wonderful, uplifting video. And what absolutely lovely, amazing people you meet within the waterway community! Just heartwarming! Worsley looks a stunning, picturesque town. As English towns SHOULD look! Taken care of! 🙌🙌🙌 Truly LOVE your vlogs Heidi! Bonny absolutely living the most amazing, joyful life!
Heidi you are ace! I am a fellow middle aged woman with exactly your sense of humour :D Just put my deposit on my dream boat and will soon be living full time on the canal as a single female boater (who will also be laughing at the bridges that are number 69)
Heidi that was such a pretty town, reminds me of Shakespeare. Your go to is my regular but I have soup with toast for lunch but I’m fussy about my soup, not out of a tin. Canal life is such a lovely life, I know it has its downfalls but it’s how you make it. What a wonderful meal, nice people. Found a fantastic mooring spot in Leigh, shame it’s only 48 hours. Great vlog Heidi, so very much love waking Friday and finding you waiting for me. OK love to you and Bonny. Oh your tiller pirate, LOL, still a work in progress. Take care. ❤️
I’ve just discovered your gorgeous channel while searching for something jolly and uplifting to watch. And here it is. I absolutely love watching anything to do with canals, rivers, lakes, the sea. And your videos have snippets of history, legends and myths to boot. All round, a fabulous watch and here’s to many, many more. I’ve subscribed. 😊👍⚓️👋🏼
For a filling quick meal...probably more suited to a cold winters day cruising try this....take a tin of your preferred soup , I like golden veg or oxtail...also a bag of tilda cook in the foil bag rice..lime and coriander is good...mix together and heat slowly...when bubbling hot add a generous spoon full of aubergine pickle and enjoy .....it will blow your socks off...
People after my own heart. One if my favorite rums is Coconut Malibu. Great stuff. I don't know if we have the strawberry variety. I'll have to look. Take care and God Bless to Yourself and Bonnie, Paul from Florida.
Cut up veggies of all kinds, put them in the pan with oil or butter, soften them up a bit and then pour your eggs as in omelet over it and cook very low heat 🎉🎉🎉 variations are endless ❤❤
Hey Heidi, you asked for easy recipes that you can do in bulk. You may already know of it but, one I love is chicken rice and sausage.... just boil some chicken (throw a couple of chicken bouillon cubes in the water). Then cut up some summer/smoked sausage links and cook it up in a skillet (I like to get a little bit of a sear on it with olive oil and butter). For the rice, I use the water I used to boil the chicken to cook the rice in to give it some extra flavor. Then just pull apart and/or cut up the chicken and mix it all up. As far as how much of each, I usually use about 1.5 cups of rice (uncooked) and 2-3 medium sized boneless chicken breasts and, as far as sausage, I use about 14 ounces. It easily makes enough for 2-3 meals for two people but it's easy to scale up or down to make as much as you want, and it keeps well in the frig. Thanks for another one. Take care.
Just love Thursdays’s. Great video again Heidi. Love Phil’s Lighthouse. Bonny is too cute and how well behaved she was with the other dog. The view of the canals you were on were BEAUTIFUL. Nothing like that here in Chicago USA. If you have a crock pot you can cook your dinner on low all day and it would be ready for you when you’re ready to eat. Google crock pot recipes for the kinds of foods you like and get recipes from that (just a suggestion)❤️🏴☠️
Greeting from sunny SA. A great episode, music, people, the sound of that lovely engine & great scenery. Thank you. I have a quick recipe for you. My grandchildren love it & ask for it regularly. Ingredients: 2 eggs, 500 grams of pasta, small amount of cheese, one chopped Onion & a packet of bacon (chop the bacon into small square +- 1 inch. Cooking instructions. Place the pasta of your choice into a pot of boiling water & boil for +- 15 min. once these are cooked rinsed in cold water & empty water. In the meantime cook the squares of bacon to your liking. We like them crispy. Prepare the chopped onion, whisk the eggs, grate the cheese. When the pasta is ready & the bacon cooked add them together. I add the bacon to the pasta, then mix. Add the onion & mix, add the eggs & mix. I also add some crushed garlic & ginger & heaped teaspoon mix again & add the cheese. This should take you about 25 to 30 minutes. Our grandkids & myself love to add tomato sauce but this is up to you. This should give you at least 3 to 4 meals. I normally make a double batch which can feed seven or eight of us. Enjoy & have a great day. Dave
Sure enough about the boating community, here in the USA too. Boaters seem to understand about helping each other no matter their skin color or religion or who they love or their shoe size or anything else. Good for you for offering to help those folks whose boat came unpinned. On my last caravan trip, I chatted a bit with a neighbor camper in the campground that week, nice folks, tho we didn't really talk much ... and then on my drive home with my trailer/caravan in tow, I came around a curve in the road to see THEM pulled over on the side of the road. Of course I stopped. Flat tire, help came, but they felt so much better to know I had stopped in case they needed more help. We ALL must do that for each other! Hmmm, you'd think the businesses along the Bridgewater canal would want boaters to stay there, and spend money. You're the best. 🙂 You and Bonny. And the ditty from Jayne. Great vlog!!!
All Phil’s have a big un 😜. That Sunday lunch looked amazing. We used to call Manchester Tart, Salford Slag 😂. Hope you’re keeping well hun and hope to see you soon xx
Heidi good day to ya, I can't get over how Bonny is doing when it comes to socializing with other dogs and people. I know you are VERY proud of her for that. As for simple food recipes, try frying up left over spaghetti or macaroni, then crack an egg over it. Having left over rice is always good as you can heat it up and then scramble up an egg in the reheated rice. Don't forget about French toast; bread soaked in egg and then put into a fry pan. after it is cooked put syrup, cinnamon or jam or nothing on it. Take care Heidi, Mark Alberta, Canada
First time seeing your videos and am struck by the high quality of the video itself (how clear it is), and you are so positive. I'm sure you appreciate the beautiful places you have over there on the canals, really lovely. Dublin.
Recipe: Tofu scramble. Get firm tofu, a spice called Tofu scramble and follow directions. Healthy and delicious! I'm not a vegetarian either. Plus tofu helps with hot flashes 🔥I watch all your vids from Illinois, USA. 😁 Rock on!
That were mint that were or as they say down yer in the westcountry , twere gurt lush.😁 Thanks as always Heidi, safe onward travels and happy faffing for the week ahead.😊 Hope Sandra and Nicky are well and doing ok .😊
Most enjoyable episode again Heidi and Bonny! We always look forward to it you are a breath of fresh air that can be a very nice vibe with all the bad stuff that goes on around the world! We look forward to the next episode Cheers the Cornish crew James and Shelly xx
Heidi is truly marvelous ! Ahoy Heidi & Bonny! ❤❤❤ from Chicago, IL USA 🇺🇸 P.S Heidi, my 2024 July summer solo vacation trip to London,England, was fabulous! I ❤ London, England 🇬🇧 Thank you for inviting me!!
Hi Heidi I loved your vlog today you went past my Friend Maddog's (yes that's his crazy nickname) boat at 5.56 on your video so i was able to check out where he was. His is the green boat on the left under the tree. Your life is so great ambling along in beautiful places like that. Have a great week.👋👍
Just watched Who's bright idea. Really enjoyed it, especially as I live near the Bridgewater at Eccles and lived facing the canal at Monton when there was no lighthouse. I'll be watching the rest of your videos. Good luck
I so look forward to your video every week. That iron stained water looked like coffee or tea ☕. No wonder that moorings 48hr a stones throw from Aldi and a short stumble from the pub 😁. Lovely couple(&sister) they really spoiled you there, fantastic. Thanks for the vid Heidi.
Great video Heidi so many nice people on the canal. You were saying about some nice Dinners we use parsley box very nice meals and you don't have to put them in the Freezer or fridge.They've got at least six month shelf life on them. Go no line and have a look and if you bey £40 or more it's free Delivery.have a great weekend 😊
Hi Heidi, and beautiful little Bonny, I must say I really appreciate you both. I love it when I see little Bonny when she’s just having so much fun and being herself is wonderful so wonderful to see and Bonny is a change little puppy used to be terrified of everything , Heidi, bit of a shame you haven’t got a girlfriend you’re a wonderful lady and someone in your life to share. Everything. Really love and appreciate you both. You don’t know how much you make me so happy when I see your videos to see you both. Lots of love from Australia.
Good afternoon Heidi you are looking good! Girl your view of the land are stunning, along with fantastic folks along the way. Thank you for letting me see your world 🌎 oh and the meals and snacks look yummy wow❤take good care your friend Cindy from Orlando Florida 🏝 ❤
Brilliant vlog Heidi. Thanks for letting us share your adventure. Love it that the community comes together for each other. Take care and stay safe. ATB to you and Bonnie. X
Hey Heidi and beautiful Bonny . Loved the vlog and shows how kind the boating people are. What a fantastic roast. Bonny looking really happy she living the dream. Have a fantastic weekend , take care ❤
Love watching you adventures. I feel like I am living the life on the canals as I watch. Thank you for explaining the different rules of the canals. Glenda Futch in Florida
Hello heidi mick from Hull really enjoyed this Episode keep doing what you are doing hope you are both well and I will look forward to your next episode xx😊😊😊
Quick and easy microwave rice from Aldi 45p, loads of different flavours. I usually fry it in a pan then make a quick veggie curry with curry paste, condensed milk, a bit of water and whatever veg I've got in. Or you can just make rice and flop a fried egg on it 🍳👍🏼
Evening Heidi. I live alone and when I want a quick meal, I cook a helping of Paella. Frozen from Morrisons, and cooked in a frying pan. Quick and easy in 15 minutes.
When I bushcraft i have a fav recipe. Take 3inches of chiritzo sausage skin it cut it into 1/4 inch slices then halve the slices gently heat in a saucepan to release the oils. Chop up one onion add it cook till the onion is soft, then sprinkle some knor Aromat on, add risotto rice a cupped handful add water till it covers the rice and cook till the rice is done add some cheese 5 minutes before you take it off the heat the baby bell cheese is good broken up into 3 or 4 pieces but any cheese will do. One pan cooking no plating up man cookery class haha
Thanks Heidi. Brought back a lot of memories. As a kid, playing on the side of the Bridgewater Canal with my cousins. Then other times in someone's car (we didn't have a car) getting very excited while we waited for the Barton Swing Road Bridge to be swung round to allow a ship to pass along the Manchester Ship Canal - and also watching the Swing Aqueduct in action. Fast forward to around 45 years ago on a hire boat braving the locks through Manchester and turning via a huge lock onto the Bridgewater. I don't think there was a time limit in those days.
Heidi great video lovely to see all the kind genuine people great you got invited for dinner how nice also bonny really enjoyed her time hope you both have a great week best wishes take care 😊😊😊😊😊
Hi Heidi Firstl time ive text you, just had to say love your vlogs. Me and my husband came across you when searching youtube and had to go back and watch them all they, were great but, sadly now we have to wait a whloe week. As someone who suffers badly with anxiety I personally want to thank you, i dont go very far and hate busy places, but i now say what would Heidi say, its an adventure , you've even got me thinking about buying rum. We also adore dear little Bonnie, what great company she is and such a good girl, love seeing her riding on top of the boat. Sorry to waffle on but thanks for letting us share your journeys. Take care, look forward to seeing you next week. ❤
OMG, I love Thursdays. It's my day off (I work an odd schedule), AND it's Heidi day. Always looking forward to your vlog. They most definitely brighten my day. Thank you.
Evening Heidi and Bonny I think that wideband had more space in it than my house! I got my new (to me) 40" _telly just in time to cope with it 😀 As you're currently on the Bridgewater Canal, I wanted to send you a pic of the Monument to the Duke of Bridgewater which is near me, but it's covered in scaffolding at the moment! In the food front, may I suggest "One is Fun" by Delia Smith it's a bit dated now, but you might find it useful. The recipes are dead simple (they must be if I can cope with them!). That Sunday Dinner has just made me very hungry - it looked absolutely scrumptious! Stay safe and happy both of you.
Thanks again Heidi for stirring memories of my time on these waterways nb Epiphany. Agreed that Peel Holdings have ruined the visiting experience by limiting the licence to 7 days. I was waiting for you to visit the entrance to the underground canals at Worsley that spawned the UK canal system. I guess you can't do everything in a half hour or so. 🙂Your vlog is the week's highlight. Cheers ❤️
Hi Heidi and Bonny, got my new hip two weeks ago the opp went well and I'm making good progress, your vlogs are a lovely distraction. Stay safe. Bill from Lincolnshire.

Id happily share some more work if youd like to see. Many thanks for the kind words..

Oh wow I'd love to see your work. I've just painted mine camoflage. I'm very critical of my own work. My brother was going to help me he was a great artist but sadly died 3 years ago.
Thats the packet house, you're in my neck of the woods now, I love it Heidi, I left my England 60 yrs ago to come to Canada, I miss home very much,
Oh wow - very very talented, I love it ❤️🏴☠️ do you do campervans ?
Our favourite quick and tasty meal when camping.
One ripe banana and 2 eggs whipped together and you have perfect pancake batter. Nothing else needed.
Cook as per any pancake and serve with Bacon or as a sweet with strawberries and yoghurt.
Noodle soup made with 2minute noodles and any veggies easy peasy!

Yaahooo it's Heidi Day.👏👍
Edited: you meet the most wonderful people on the planet Heidi, i just wish more people were like them in every day life.
Aww thanks Jay ❤️
You have to read it like a pirate:
I one knew a lass, that sailed a ship.
It filled with but rum, no mate have a sip.
A long ship she be, with her captain at sea.
And when she reached land, she share it with me.
The flag that is flown, a skull and cross bone.
It's nothing to toy with, that ship be her home.
So raise your cup highly, and drink of the rum, and if you don't do it, you sure be a bum.

Enjoyed the architecture along the canals. The lighthouse is quite unique. Thanks for sharing. Be well and stay safe.
Thanks, you too!

Oh wow Andrea - exciting stuff - is it a new build and if so who is the boat builder ? Hopefully see you on the water soon xxxx
A joy to view.

I've had a few Manchester tarts in my time, let me tell you. Lovely. Don't be rude!
Amazing how well-behaved Bonnie was. Good on you 🐾🐾

Just love Thursdays’s. Great video again Heidi. Love Phil’s Lighthouse. Bonny is too cute and how well behaved she was with the other dog. The view of the canals you were on were BEAUTIFUL. Nothing like that here in Chicago USA. If you have a crock pot you can cook your dinner on low all day and it would be ready for you when you’re ready to eat. Google crock pot recipes for the kinds of foods you like and get recipes from that (just a suggestion)❤️🏴☠️
They use too much electric unfortunately 😃🏴☠️❤️

Hope you’re keeping well hun and hope to see you soon xx

What fabulous boaters - Sunday diner on a Tuesday is an absolute treat ☺️

Just watched Who's bright idea. Really enjoyed it, especially as I live near the Bridgewater at Eccles and lived facing the canal at Monton when there was no lighthouse. I'll be watching the rest of your videos. Good luck
Aww thank you 😃🏴☠️
Banger👌⭐️👍
I so look forward to your video every week. That iron stained water looked like coffee or tea ☕. No wonder that moorings 48hr a stones throw from Aldi and a short stumble from the pub 😁. Lovely couple(&sister) they really spoiled you there, fantastic. Thanks for the vid Heidi.
Thank you 😃❤️🏴☠️

You were saying about some nice Dinners we use parsley box very nice meals and you don't have to put them in the Freezer or fridge.They've got at least six month shelf life on them.

Everything. Really love and appreciate you both. You don’t know how much you make me so happy when I see your videos to see you both. Lots of love from Australia.

Hello heidi mick from Hull really enjoyed this Episode keep doing what you are doing hope you are both well and I will look forward to your next episode xx😊😊😊
Quick and easy microwave rice from Aldi 45p, loads of different flavours. I usually fry it in a pan then make a quick veggie curry with curry paste, condensed milk, a bit of water and whatever veg I've got in. Or you can just make rice and flop a fried egg on it 🍳👍🏼
boy am i glad i found your vlogs really enjoy them Heidi❤
Aww thank you 😃❤️🏴☠️

Congratulations Heidi, 40 Thousand subscribers, Well deserved and here's to Many more.
Thank you so much!
Evening Heidi. I live alone and when I want a quick meal, I cook a helping of Paella. Frozen from Morrisons, and cooked in a frying pan. Quick and easy in 15 minutes.
🏴☠️ As always a fun episode Heidi, see you next Thursday! 🏴☠️
When I bushcraft i have a fav recipe. Take 3inches of chiritzo sausage skin it cut it into 1/4 inch slices then halve the slices gently heat in a saucepan to release the oils. Chop up one onion add it cook till the onion is soft, then sprinkle some knor Aromat on, add risotto rice a cupped handful add water till it covers the rice and cook till the rice is done add some cheese 5 minutes before you take it off the heat the baby bell cheese is good broken up into 3 or 4 pieces but any cheese will do.
One pan cooking no plating up man cookery class haha
Thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️
Great friendly community. Looks a great life.
Thanks Heidi. Brought back a lot of memories. As a kid, playing on the side of the Bridgewater Canal with my cousins. Then other times in someone's car (we didn't have a car) getting very excited while we waited for the Barton Swing Road Bridge to be swung round to allow a ship to pass along the Manchester Ship Canal - and also watching the Swing Aqueduct in action. Fast forward to around 45 years ago on a hire boat braving the locks through Manchester and turning via a huge lock onto the Bridgewater. I don't think there was a time limit in those days.
No the time limit has only been in effect for about 4 years 😟
Love your map animation!
Heidi great video lovely to see all the kind genuine people great you got invited for dinner how nice also bonny really enjoyed her time hope you both have a great week best wishes take care 😊😊😊😊😊
Lovely video Heidi! Best wishes from top of a mountain in Spain.
Oh wow, wonderful 😃❤️🏴☠️
Wonderful looking food,,you lucky pirate,😂
Grrrr a new mighty video out leeds is a nice town
Hi Heidi
Firstl time ive text you, just had to say love your vlogs. Me and my husband came across you when searching youtube and had to go back and watch them all they, were great but, sadly now we have to wait a whloe week.
As someone who suffers badly with anxiety I personally want to thank you, i dont go very far and hate busy places, but i now say what would Heidi say, its an adventure , you've even got me thinking about buying rum.
We also adore dear little Bonnie, what great company she is and such a good girl, love seeing her riding on top of the boat.
Sorry to waffle on but thanks for letting us share your journeys.
Take care, look forward to seeing you next week. ❤
Aww thanks so much! Everyday is an adventure 😃🏴☠️❤️
OMG, I love Thursdays. It's my day off (I work an odd schedule), AND it's Heidi day. Always looking forward to your vlog. They most definitely brighten my day. Thank you.
Aww thank you 😃❤️🏴☠️
Evening Heidi and Bonny
I think that wideband had more space in it than my house! I got my new (to me) 40" _telly just in time to cope with it 😀 As you're currently on the Bridgewater Canal, I wanted to send you a pic of the Monument to the Duke of Bridgewater which is near me, but it's covered in scaffolding at the moment!
In the food front, may I suggest "One is Fun" by Delia Smith it's a bit dated now, but you might find it useful. The recipes are dead simple (they must be if I can cope with them!). That Sunday Dinner has just made me very hungry - it looked absolutely scrumptious!
Stay safe and happy both of you.
Thank you, I’ll have a look
Great vlog Heidi. What lovely people you meet. Treated out to Sunday lunch on a Tuesday.it's all because we all love you 😍xxx Glenn & Marion Leeds
Thanks again Heidi for stirring memories of my time on these waterways nb Epiphany. Agreed that Peel Holdings have ruined the visiting experience by limiting the licence to 7 days.
I was waiting for you to visit the entrance to the underground canals at Worsley that spawned the UK canal system. I guess you can't do everything in a half hour or so. 🙂Your vlog is the week's highlight. Cheers ❤️
I was only there for one day … the 7 day rules makes it difficult to spend time anywhere on that canal unfortunately
Hi Heidi and Bonny, got my new hip two weeks ago the opp went well and I'm making good progress, your vlogs are a lovely distraction. Stay safe. Bill from Lincolnshire.
Wishing you a full and speedy recovery Billy. 😊
Aww get well soon Billy xxxx
