Thank you very much, Hedi, for the mention! We really appreciate it 😊 We're doing great. All things considered! Look forward to seeing you again someday along the cut.
Aww guys, my heart goes out to you ❤️ hopefully catch up with you soon xxx and Josh is doing an amazing job of keeping us all up to date - he deserves a medal ❤️🏴☠️😃
Came here to thank Heidi for her mentioning your coverage Josh! Thank you Heidi and THANK YOU Josh (and mum and dad!) Watching from Australia but originally from Cheshire. 😊
As always, you have the best UA-cam channel on earth. I so appreciate watching every Thursday. Edit: at my age Heidi, I...and thousands of subscribers so look forward to every Thursday. You are one in a million sharing your life journey with us all, we are very fortunate.
I just love the gentle thump of your boat engine 😊 I worked at the Lister engine plant in Dursley back in the 80's and used to hear the rhythmic thump of them testing the engines.
Looking forward to you and the Capt hitting the trail and Capt Bonny teaching the First Mate the Highwayman Trade of robbing travelers of their silver & gold, not to mention their Rum. You two may leave the sea for a little while but you can't leave the pirate life.
Hubby and I have been enjoying you for a year or two on the big screen TV so I thought it was high time I got in touch and let you know you bring a smile to our faces. Especially as we recover from this scratchy throat, cough thing , THANKS 😊 looking forward to your Trip !
Love the wee jumpers and coats you have for Bonnie she looks snug and happy, while you freeze your bits off 🤣🥶 . Would be good to see Gabby coming on the European trip, you two are good together. And very nice of you to mention Josh's amazing coverage of the Bridgewater Breech on Taylors Aboard a Narrowboat channel they are such nice ordinary folk. Stay warm.
Loved the serene beginning of the vlog 😊. Cool gloves as they have your thumb covered which somehow makes a difference. Countryside looks beautiful.😊Glad the ol girl is fettled for the year ahead she's sounding good, the group in the pub sounded good too,makes you want to wurlitz around.😄. Thank you for sharing Heidi, happy prepping for your next adventures. Take care out there and keep warm. 😊
I couldn't remember if it was Wednesday or Thursday, but I know now because our Heidi and Bonny are here again, What a shame about the Bridgewater Canal, where do you start rebuilding something on a scale like that?, Looking forward to warmer longer days, I didn't make any new year resolutions, I never keep them anyway, So good to see You and Bonny enjoying the walks too, Looking forward to the next trip, Thank You as always, for taking us along with you both.
Heidi, you and other boaters should wear ski caps, which would cover everything on your face. Of course, you'd take it off while cruising. Protective eye wear would be helpful. We are counting on you to take good care of yourself. What in the world would we do without seeing you weekly?!
I can’t wait for the European Adventure! Good job getting the Wench serviced, always a good idea to get ahead of problems. There’s cold and then there’s cold on the water, the shot of frost on your mooring ropes made me shiver. A tip for cold feet is to line the bottom of your shoes with aluminum foil, sounds weird but it can work. And finally, New Years resolutions are for chumps, they only make you feel bad about yourself.
Lovely Vlog, I managed dry January 1st, only as I was working a night shift, then the 2nd came and so did the lovely gin I got for Christmas! Oh well next year!! Cheers x
"To be fit doing 10.000 steps a day" she said and walks right into a pub! 😁 ;-) This is good ol' Heidi just like we love 💚 her. 2) Dry January? Something like this doesn't suit a proper pirate. 😁 ;-) 3) Glad to see that the old girl rum wench got some TLC Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and especially health to all involved.
Going home, is a very good thing. Time to reset. And reestablish connections. Saw coverage of your countries recent flooding. Hope you and Bonnie were on dry land.😊
I love your channel Heidi and like to see your adventures. I had to do a double take when I saw your bellows because they look identical to those that my late grandparents made at their kitchen table when they were out workers for Croft & Assinder in Birmingham. Please can you let me have a closer look on film? Safe travels.
Fantastic vlog Heidi. I love the peak district, it's my nearest national park. Upper Booth farm or North Lees for camping. Kinder scout via gindsbrook or the pennine way to kinder downfall, also the Great Ridge to lose hill has amazing views. Win hill via parkin clough is good steep uphill fun! Wish I was there now but probably freeze in my tent 🤣😁
great vlog - yes we are following the information on the Breach via Taylors aboard a narrowboat, our boat is currently on the hard at the marina just up the canal from them - cant wait to be back out cruising as Bramble cuttings is one of our favorites too
Ahhh The Wench needs fresh oil or is it Rum? Nice and peaceful on the cut great scenery. Hope you have thawed out and prevented frost bite to your extremities. Till next week
Loverly views on the Hike, but Yes, Cold.🥶 We've come through our Cold spell here in Hampshire, & have had nothing but Mist for days now. 🙁 Dreadful what happened on the Bridgewater, but some Culver dams are in, & that'll hopefully get the Boats out. Big fix-it job there. TFS, take care, & keep warm you 2. 👍🙂🐶
Thanks Heidi, you bring the cheer to start everyone’s weekend. Classically funny innuendo, new music? Are any of those raspberries recordings, because you wouldn’t want to pay royalties of course? Perhaps a few good Pirate grog Buuurps could be mixed in there?
The sunken fibreglass boat has been removed at last ! 🤪 😅 We walked down the Bridgewater on Tuesday. Standing there in person, the scale beyond belief. The embankment has washed right away to the original level of the fields 😳 Where the navvies first started pile up the spoil 250 years ago. Lol Fingers crossed Peel actually fix it ! The Government had to step in and pay in 1971, Peel didnt own it then though.
I gave up on NY resolutions last year!! I was beyond feeling frustrated and letting myself down! I'm much happier now knowing I'm free of that millstone around my neck. 🎉
when i was a kid and not a goat we used to go down to the canel when it was freezing the ice was 2feet thick,not ant more earth is warming up it will turn into a new sun one day
* NEW YEARS RESOLUTION * I managed to do "dry January" till Tuesday January 14th Shame on me 😂 never give up "giving up" hey! Another lush video Heidi 👍 X
Hi Heidi Wow it looks cold and beautiful there. Love the Peak District, very brave walking there in the winter. Does your water tank freeze when the temperature drops? Looking forward to your Europe adventures. Stay warm Linda
Lovely cruise this week. Would love that Hike though it would take me a lot longer with my broken body. Temps went from -35C to a very balmy 4C stayed there for about five days. Ugh! Didn't melt much. -24C now which is a nice temp though it's suppose to get back up to around zero C Saturday. Stay warm dear lady!
Hey Heidi hey girl so good to see 👀 and Bonnie 🐕 I agree with you on getting home we just lost another family member we are now down to cousins now, mom and dad's aunts and uncles are gone but we go on appreciate life as it comes❤ so yes girl get urself home with family and friends get a well deserved recharge and come back and take us on a brilliant cruise. Good deal on getting maintenance on the boat, keep warm your friend Cindy from Orlando Florida ❤🏖 and yea girl we are cold to currently 14° C 🥶
Enjoyed the vid but you have the gloves on back to front. The foldy bit goes at the back, thank goodness she didn’t send you a hoodie, getting that wrong would be a disaster!😂
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr I know how you feel on the cold. It's supposed to drop down to -34 Celsius next week. The polar vortex is dropping down to freeze everything here.
I showed her in last weeks video … she lives in a van and a fellow adventurer … we good mates and decided over winter to do some adventures together 😃🏴☠️ she doesn’t have a UA-cam channel
So glad found your amazing vlogs on UA-cam I'm just wondering how do we find you on waterways love to say hello give bonny a little gift from Bella my assistance dog be good to say hello your vlogs are helping us understand narrow boating kind regards sasha Burrett x❤
Like you, my only resolution has been never to make any new year ones. I have stuck consistently to that throughout my life and that consistency, I think, is a virtue.
Dry January??? Any-hoo it's been beautiful and sunny in Barcelona. 2C coldest early morning temperature but in the sun after 10 a.m. 10 to 15 degrees, so if you venture over here let me know! No new years resolutions but gave up smoking over a month ago, so just finishing the bat sh*t crazy phase 😆
Very disappointing your most high Pirateness. Those temperatures were ideal for hunting the mysterious chapel coat peg instead of which you sat in a nice warm pub which is the worst condition possible for observing said pegs. 😂🍻🍻🥂🥂
Thank you very much, Hedi, for the mention! We really appreciate it 😊 We're doing great. All things considered! Look forward to seeing you again someday along the cut.
Aww guys, my heart goes out to you ❤️ hopefully catch up with you soon xxx and Josh is doing an amazing job of keeping us all up to date - he deserves a medal ❤️🏴☠️😃
We loved Bramble cutting
@@TheNarrowboatPirate he really is! Lovely family.
Came here to thank Heidi for her mentioning your coverage Josh! Thank you Heidi and THANK YOU Josh (and mum and dad!) Watching from Australia but originally from Cheshire. 😊
I love the narrowboat community. Thank you for supporting 'The Taylors Aboard' Family stuck on the Bridgwater Canal. May God Bless you all.
It's Thursday, the best day of the week. It's HEIDI day.🎉🎉
Thanks so much again Jay xxx
As always, you have the best UA-cam channel on earth. I so appreciate watching every Thursday.
Edit: at my age Heidi, I...and thousands of subscribers so look forward to every Thursday. You are one in a million sharing your life journey with us all, we are very fortunate.
Great video your thumbs up to total views ratio is massive I think you really connect with your audience who absolutely love you 🍀🍀🍀
I just love the gentle thump of your boat engine 😊
I worked at the Lister engine plant in Dursley back in the 80's and used to hear the rhythmic thump of them testing the engines.
Yay Heidi's back. Love your tranquil cruising music ❤
Can't beat a walk in the hills of the Peak District, glad you enjoyed it. Thank you.
Love your colorful double entendres 😂. Glad you’re safe and sound and in no peril because of the breach. Here’s to 2025 and the adventures to come.😰🥳
Whooo hooo 😃🏴☠️
Looking forward to you and the Capt hitting the trail and Capt Bonny teaching the First Mate the Highwayman Trade of robbing travelers of their silver & gold, not to mention their Rum. You two may leave the sea for a little while but you can't leave the pirate life.
I know 😂😂 pirates need to head of in search of treasure every once in a while 😂🏴☠️
Hi from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
Lovely Bonny looks so at home on the boat. She has the best life with you Heidi 💖
She is gorgeous 🥶🏴☠️
Hubby and I have been enjoying you for a year or two on the big screen TV so I thought it was high time I got in touch and let you know you bring a smile to our faces. Especially as we recover from this scratchy throat, cough thing , THANKS 😊 looking forward to your Trip !

Hello Heidi and Bonnie. You are a joy to watch and listen to. Your music is terrific. And nothing beats Heidi’s sense of humor. Thank you. Joseph.
Thank you! 😊
Thanks
my new years resolution is to keep watching your vids and i have not failed love them Heidi keep them coming lots of love stay safe❤
Thank you! You too!

I love Thursday too. I can’t wait for the van trip. Last year’s trip was so good. I hope you go somewhere warm.
Thanks Nancy 😃🏴☠️❤️
Dry January, my a***,Love the video. I'm glad you've had a full service, lol 'xxx. I'm looking forward to your land adventures very soon xxx
Well lovely you stay safe in Europe 👍👍👍

Sad about the Bridge water, going to take some mending..
And an awful lot of money too. I wouldn't be surprised if Peel Holdings tried to offload the Bridgewater onto CRT to fix.
beautifully shot video, feeling a bit re-energised myself now
Looking forward to another year following your adventures. Peak district is a lovely place.
Good luck
Belated Happynew year hope its a good one for you and the little one .May the rum flow free and warm .✨✨✨✨🍺🎉🎉🎉
Same to you!
I can’t wait for the European Adventure! Good job getting the Wench serviced, always a good idea to get ahead of problems.

Oooh I’ll try the foil trick, thank you 😃❤️🥶
Good day Heidi and Bonny. Just a quick hello and stay safe and warm. Always look forward to see what is going on with you guys. See ya soon 👋😊
Switch hands. The finger cover should be on the back of ur hand when not in use ! Love the scenery you bring us.
I know, someone said 😂😂 trust me to put them on the wrong hands 😂😂
Lovely Vlog, I managed dry January 1st, only as I was working a night shift, then the 2nd came and so did the lovely gin I got for Christmas! Oh well next year!! Cheers x
Great video Heidi that walk Certainly , blow all the cobwebs away. Have a great weekend 😊👍
You too 😃🏴☠️

We love your videos Heidi. Bought our first narrowboat boat recently. You are an inspiration
Aww thank you, hopefully see you on the cut soon 🏴☠️🥃😃
Hey, I liked the look of that pub, great atmosphere.
The Rum wench will be singing now she has had her service 🎉🎉
She sure will 😃🏴☠️❤️
Going home, is a very good thing. Time to reset. And reestablish connections. Saw coverage of your countries recent flooding. Hope you and Bonnie were on dry land.😊
Thank you Heidi and Bonny. Cheers.
Looking forward to your campervan adventures.
I love your channel Heidi and like to see your adventures. I had to do a double take when I saw your bellows because they look identical to those that my late grandparents made at their kitchen table when they were out workers for Croft & Assinder in Birmingham. Please can you let me have a closer look on film? Safe travels.
Keep warm Heidi. You really must come out pirating on the sea in the Spring. 🙂
Fantastic vlog Heidi.
I love the peak district, it's my nearest national park.
Upper Booth farm or North Lees for camping.
Kinder scout via gindsbrook or the pennine way to kinder downfall, also the Great Ridge to lose hill has amazing views.
Win hill via parkin clough is good steep uphill fun!
Wish I was there now but probably freeze in my tent 🤣😁
cold winter days the pub is best
great vlog - yes we are following the information on the Breach via Taylors aboard a narrowboat, our boat is currently on the hard at the marina just up the canal from them - cant wait to be back out cruising as Bramble cuttings is one of our favorites too
Oh no … I hope you are safe and sound ?
Ahhh The Wench needs fresh oil or is it Rum? Nice and peaceful on the cut great scenery. Hope you have thawed out and prevented frost bite to your extremities.
Till next week
Ha dry January lasted 4 days here. Cheers from across the pond
That’s better than me 😂😂
Dont envy you on a canal boat this weather Heidi
Loverly views on the Hike, but Yes, Cold.🥶
We've come through our Cold spell here in Hampshire, & have had nothing but Mist for days now. 🙁
Dreadful what happened on the Bridgewater, but some Culver dams are in, & that'll hopefully get the Boats out. Big fix-it job there.
TFS, take care, & keep warm you 2. 👍🙂🐶
Thanks, you too 😃
@@TheNarrowboatPirate Lol, I meant Coffer dams. 👍🤗
Ey up me duck.
Nice to see you up in the hills, looking foward to seeing more of your adventures this year 🙂👍
Thanks 👍😃🏴☠️
You need a scarf Dear! Lovely cruise. God Bless.
Thanks Heidi, you bring the cheer to start everyone’s weekend. Classically funny innuendo, new music? Are any of those raspberries recordings, because you wouldn’t want to pay royalties of course? Perhaps a few good Pirate grog Buuurps could be mixed in there?
😂😂
Once again, it is a very enjoyable video. Hope the winter doesn't get too rough. Be well and stay safe.
Thanks, you too!
Ohhh Miiiii What a cute pit'l phurry 1st mate you have there my dear..... 🐕🐾🐶
Y' the bettah to charm you with, my deary..... 🏴☠️☠️🦜💀
Looks a lovely pub.... great video as always, thanks Heidi ❤❤
Cheers 😃
Good day to both you and Bonnie! Great video. 😊 Bonnie looks cute in her coat. You do not look like the Michelin man.lol😅
The sunken fibreglass boat has been removed at last ! 🤪 😅
We walked down the Bridgewater on Tuesday.
Standing there in person, the scale beyond belief. The embankment has washed right away to the original level of the fields 😳 Where the navvies first started pile up the spoil 250 years ago. Lol
Fingers crossed Peel actually fix it !
The Government had to step in and pay in 1971, Peel didnt own it then though.
Fingers crossed 😃🏴☠️
I gave up on NY resolutions last year!! I was beyond feeling frustrated and letting myself down! I'm much happier now knowing I'm free of that millstone around my neck. 🎉
😂😂
Great video Heidi.hope you get the van sorted ready for your next adventure xxx
Thanks Denise 😃❤️🏴☠️
when i was a kid and not a goat we used to go down to the canel when it was freezing the ice was 2feet thick,not ant more earth is warming up it will turn into a new sun one day
Brilliant vlog as usual, never make new years resolution chuckle cos they never work😊 lolx
😂😂
My new years resolution was to drink more rum. Sod dry January
* NEW YEARS RESOLUTION *
I managed to do "dry January" till Tuesday January 14th
Shame on me 😂 never give up "giving up" hey!
Another lush video Heidi 👍
X
Better than I did, well done 😂😃🏴☠️
That was a chilly week on the network. It snowed, it froze, and very slowly it thawed.
I’m still frozen in where I am at the moment 😫
Hi Heidi Wow it looks cold and beautiful there. Love the Peak District, very brave walking there in the winter. Does your water tank freeze when the temperature drops? Looking forward to your Europe adventures. Stay warm Linda
Hey Linda, no luckily the water tank has never frozen as it’s well insulated and below the water line 😃
My New Years resolution was not to make a New Year's resolution. So far, so good, it's going perfectly! 🤣
😂😂
🇨🇦 glad to hear you like winter. I do too be in Canada are winters is a little different than yours.
I do but then I get ready to go in search of dryer, warmer weather 😂😂 we get a lot of rain, floods and mud over here 😂😂
I've stopped drinking alcohol, only saving it for special occasions. I feel much better for it.
Lovely vlog happy journeys 😊
Thank you! You too! 😃
Hi Heidi, I made a New Years Resolution about 15 years ago and that was not to make any more NYR’s & to date I have stuck to it - oh rrrrr! ☠️😊
😂😂
Lovely cruise this week. Would love that Hike though it would take me a lot longer with my broken body. Temps went from -35C to a very balmy 4C stayed there for about five days. Ugh!

Glad to join you on your forthcoming adventures……..2025 is going to be a great year. Cheers.
Thank you 😃❤️🏴☠️
A little help with engine repairs. 😊
Thanks so much again Mark 😃🏴☠️🥃❤️
@TheNarrowboatPirate It's my pleasure.
Heidi whos your "friend" that you went walkabout with, the chip eater 😘
Has she her own channel ?? hope you and Bonny are good xx
I showed her in last weeks video … she lives in a van and a fellow adventurer … we good mates and decided over winter to do some adventures together 😃🏴☠️ she doesn’t have a UA-cam channel

So glad found your amazing vlogs on UA-cam I'm just wondering how do we find you on waterways love to say hello give bonny a little gift from Bella my assistance dog be good to say hello your vlogs are helping us understand narrow boating
kind regards sasha Burrett x❤
Any idea how long the canal repairs will take? Stay warm Heidi girl!
No idea … I know the breach will take a long time but the usual winter maintenance last until end of March in places
Hello Earth angel , Have you got any plans to visit Ireland in your camper van ?
Yes definitely but in warmer weather - maybe later in the year 😃🏴☠️
My New Year's resolution was to not make any New Year resolutions. Sorted! 👍
😂😂
I meant "while filming"
Happy New Year Heidi, yes , Newyears resolution to eat less and stop swearing all the best in the new year Bob
❤ xx
I haven't broken my resolution for 2025. That is; not to make any resolutions 😅 Wet yer lips, kiddo ❤
😂😂
Like you, my only resolution has been never to make any new year ones. I have stuck consistently to that throughout my life and that consistency, I think, is a virtue.
Look at all of that water in the fields. Obviously the gods are telling you dry January isn’t feasible. 😮
😂😂
Dry January??? Any-hoo it's been beautiful and sunny in Barcelona. 2C coldest early morning temperature but in the sun after 10 a.m. 10 to 15 degrees, so if you venture over here let me know! No new years resolutions but gave up smoking over a month ago, so just finishing the bat sh*t crazy phase 😆
Awww well done you! 😃
Snap, Dry January ❌
😂😂 cheers!
Dry January 😂
😂😂
Help to getting you serviced😅
Thanks so much Jim 😃🏴☠️
Happy New Year Heidi & Bonnie. My resolution is to not make any... 😈
😂😂
what do you recon your average annual overheads cost in total??????
There are 2 videos in the description of all my videos that cover boating costs and rules of the canals 😃
How far away from your family are you! An hour or two?
For 2025 I resolved to make NO resolutions. So far massive success!
😂😂
Hi lovely can I ask how much your engine service was please oo arr lol 😊
It was around £200
@TheNarrowboatPirate thank you lovely
Very disappointing your most high Pirateness. Those temperatures were ideal for hunting the mysterious chapel coat peg instead of which you sat in a nice warm pub which is the worst condition possible for observing said pegs. 😂🍻🍻🥂🥂
😂😂😂
hello heidi could you give a shout out to my mate ivor biggun hes a new fan
😂😂
looking forward for new adventure Happy New Year Hedi. worm regards from Ben. 💙
get a flat or a cottage
No thanks
