This has been the first year I've had with no family or friends they're all gone we used a kid when we were younger that we'd all be together forever I'm the only one left it has been very hard Merry Christmas to you all love the ones you've got this life is not forever
We have a waifs and strays type xmas and new year. We visit each other or have a gathering at whoever has the most spaceous house :) music and shared lunch. Good fun. Friendships are most important.
“Through misty morns and sunset’s glow, Heidi sails where few dare go. The Rum Wench cuts the waters deep, While pirates’ secrets she doth keep! With a hearty laugh and a deck so bright, She sails the canals ‘til the dead o’ night!”
Twas just a day after Christmas, and all through the locks, not an engine was running, but some just winding their clocks. As a new year is coming, I must just admit, I look forward to Thursday, and Heidi a bit. I dream of her life, with Bonnie beside, and thank her for taking me on a narrow boat ride. She shares her life freely, as she cruises the cut, with her first mate little Bonnie, just know she's no mutt. So drink up me hardy, as I raise up my cup high, and thank God she rescued Bonnie, no lie. The only thing missing is a patch on the eye, with a leg made of of wood, and a rum at her side. I wish you good fortune, as a new year ahead, and if I don't leave a comment, you'll know I am dead.😜 Happy New Year Heidi, and to all that read this. God bless us all.
My partner died in may 17th 2024. So this is the very first Xmas on my own.. my neighbours made me a love Xmas dinner, she's knew my partner .. so I been ok tears yet. Merry Christmas to you and bomboms and Ur whole family...
Heidi, your niece and nephews just love, Bonnie. It brought tears to my eyes, when I saw them petting her and loving her. It’s so great to see.. It just makes me miss my dog even more. This is my first Christmas without him. Happy new year Heidi and Bonnie. I was on my own for Christmas, and a little sad, but it’ll be OK.
Dear Heidi Where do we begin with the joy you bring into our home each week. Your fabulous humour and quick wit warms my heart. Little Bonnie loves her life now and deserves to more than anyone. We live between Ellesmere and Llangollen and just hope one day we get the opportunity to meet the beautiful Heidi and Bonnie. With all our love Jackie & Mark Rogers Cotton Tail and Benji Bamana our little doggies
Thank you Heidi for sharing your Christmas and Family. Our daughter is in Scotland currently, we miss her very much. Seeing a taste of Christmas in the UK from you, and seeing family, warms our hearts. Seeing the stunning beauty and history of England is wonderful. Thank you for sharing family and Bonnie. May your New Year be Blessed.
Our kids aren’t with us, one in Queensland and one in Darwin and we’re in Victoria, hell we miss them; our wonderful neighbours asked us over for a wonderful Christmas lunch, brilliant day. Hope you had a great Christmas Heidi and thanks for the wonderful trips you’ve taken us on over the last year it’s been such a great time. Thanks so much wonderful Heidi. Take care and stay safe. 🥰
I'm a very optimistic, independent, positive-thinking person, but when I watch your videos I feel like I have a lot to learn! I live far away from what's left of my family, and my parents have been gone for many years. I live alone (by firm choice!), but it's never an issue with me. I'm an avid hiker, so on the popular holidays when others are spending time with family in person, I'm on one of my favorite trails spending time with my family "virtually." It's my way of honoring and feeling blessed about holidays past! Hugs to you & your sweet Bonnie girl from the Oregon Coast USA (not sure there's another one, actually 🤔) 🏴☠
Hello Heidi, thank you so much for taking the time to do a vlog. It's nice to see you having some quality time with some of your family. It was also good to look back on some of your adventures. I remember watching all of them. See you next Thursday. Take care and stay safe.🥂🦴😊
Heidi and Bonney. Thank you for such an amazing year on youtube. You have given so much to us . in a narrowboat life. Your funny and a truly wonderful kind beautiful soul. You have helped me personally this year. As i lost my wife last year, Seeing your strength and determination on your adventures. Has been a massive inspiration. ive loved other channels on narrowboat life . All that give their view it are wonderful but for me . Your the best. looking forward to next year. On The Rum Wench. Loves and hugs. Becky.🏳🌈🏳⚧☠❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍 PS sending CV for crew member. Great Cook and Hairdresser
Your year in review was a great recap❣️💝 Youve made so many friends & are a great narrator of your adventures‼️💯💝🎄🥳Merry Christmas & Very Best Wishes for your 2025‼️ 🏴☠️🦜Bones for Bonny‼️🦴🦴🔥
This year I was on my own. Truly a little depressing. . So, just another day. Looks like you had a wonderful Christmas Heidi. Everyone just loves little Bonnie. 🎄☃️❄️🎄
Feliz Natal Heidi e um ano novo cheio de aventuras. Não entendo quase nada do que você fala mas sua simpatia transcende à língua. Parabéns pelo trabalho, adoro passear nos canais junto com você.
What little Star Bonnie is, she's amazing. I watched you taking your Narrow Boat across The Mersey and I must say, I take my Hat off to you. As a Born and Bred Scouser who lives not far from the River I know just how quickly conditions on the Mersey can change, well done girl. Watch that Pussers Rum, it needs to be treated with respect 😂👌
All the very best Heidi and Bonnie, thanks for the videos throughout 2024 I have now become addicted to the channel. Here’s to 2025 stay safe and keep doing what you do 👏👏🎉🎉⚓️⚓️🏴☠️🏴☠️🎄🎄
Got your Lidl sweater on, where i went today for bread for our river swans and duck food and also wine for myself! Have a very cozy time. ❤❤By the way Wallace n Gromit end up on a narrowboat in their new film (1hour in).
Hey Heidi, just wanted to say thanks for all the work you put into your videos through the year to keep us all entertained. The videos are top notch and it's great to see the subscriber count always climbing. I know it's not easy thing to do day after day and I hope being closer to friends and family this winter help carry you through the cold months and recharge your pirate batteries. Well, that and a little bit of rum never hurts. lol.... As always, thanks for sharing a little bit of your life with us. Take care. Roger
Jay a love your poem but haven’t commented or liked it as it will disappear if I do and I need to keep it there until I can copy it when on a computer … so please don’t think I’ve ignored it 😃🏴☠️❤️🥃
@@youknowme8578yes all ok, I posted on my socials and on UA-cam community that I was having a week off as I’ve been hiking with friends and not had the time to edit but I’ll see you again next week 😃🏴☠️❤️ happy new year ❤️
I used to spend Christmas alone but there's so many kind people in the boating community. I've had presents and Christmas dinner with some new friends on the marina. When I lived in a flat it was oven pizza, walk the dog and not much else. Happy Christmas Heidi and Bonny 🎅🏻🎄🕊️
Merry Christmas Heidi, hope the old guy in red came. You definitely deserve him to empty his sack in your little place. Best wishes for the New Year xxx
Happy NewYear for 2025 Heidi. I’m really glad I found your channel (don’t be ruuuude!) by chance and have watched many great videos, you’re a natural VLOGGER. You bring more happiness into peoples lives than you realise, THANK YOU. Please keep doing what you’re doing, it’s just awesome and I hope you and your UA-cam channel continue growing from strength to strength.
@ Amazing that you reply to so many posts. I have a challenge that will create content for you while doing your health a brief favour. Try doing the famous Dry January. It will be fun seeing your responses week on week as to how it’s going and if you’re just going to wet your lips or drown yourself with Rum in February?
Heidi & Bonnie, I wish you all the love/fun/laughter & happy times in the New Year. It’s been fun watching all the things I should be doing with my boat and don’t have to because you do it for me 😂. Perhaps it’s me but you seemed a bit sad so I hope you’re ok ❤ Big Hugs 🤗🦆💕
Aww I’m ok, thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️ Winter stoppages are frustrating but much needed for maintenance and I’ve always got my van for adventures ❤️❤️ Happy New Year Pam 😃🏴☠️❤️
You have taken me on great trips and told me about the places you have sailed to. I live in Walls Mississippi with a population of around 1500. I enjoy all your videos.
How lovely to get all the family together , sometimes you just need that time with family and friends to feel that warmth . I think as we get older we need that contact. Xx
Good afternoon Heidi and Bonny. So glad to see you well. Looks like a wonderful Christmas with family and friends. You always bring a smile with your adventures. Wishing you all the best and much happiness. 😊
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and have a happy New Year to you and Bonny. I see theres a "Pirate" event at Anderton next summer. You'd better get your cutlass sharpened to fend them off. 😂
What a lovely video Heidi ! Happy New Year to you. Bonnie and your lovely family. I recently discovered your channel and I am now hooked!! I love your gentle humour, the scenery and of course your adventures!
Thank You for all the time and effort that you put into making your Vlogs. I've been following your adventures for some time. We've met briefly at Unity fest but i was too shy for a conversation with you (i had my elderly staffie with me, sadly one of her last adventures). Good luck with all your future shenanigans. Libbee/Rainbow.
I’ve been on my own this year, my wife passed away at the end of October after 48 years together. My family live away so although we have Skyped a lot it’s not the same as having them close by. My neighbour has been coming round for a coffee every morning since I came home from hospital alone, he’s been so kind and has helped me so much to get through this phase of my grieving process.
Happy New Year Heidi, Bonnie, Rum Wench and Mom and Dad. A healthy and prosperous 2025 to all of you. Thank you for shining your light on all of us. Cheers, Joseph and Gigi, Cape May, USA.
How fast this year has gone by! It seems like yesterday you were cruising the Weaver and challenging the Manchester ship canal. Thanks for all the adventures and I’m hoping you and Bonny take the camper back to Europe this summer. 🏴☠️ 🚐 🏴☠️
Mele Kalikimaka! Mahalo for taking us on the ride ... it's really been a great Pirates adventure!! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us in the new year! Much Aloha! A Hui Hou!!! 💖🤙🌈🙏💞🥂🎊
What a lovely look back over your year Heidi 😊 thank you and thank you for sharing a bit of your family Christmas with us. 😊 You take great care and wishing you and yer wee Bonny all the very best for 2025. 🥳
Happy Holidays. I hope you and Bonny had a wonderful Christmas Day, or as yall say, Boxing Day, and I also hope that you and Bonny have a wonderful New Year's Eve and day. Love watching your videos from Washington state in the USA and am looking forward to your 2025 season. Stay safe and will look forward to your next adventure.
What a beautiful vlog. Lovely to recap on the year and your adventures. You've been so brave tackling the ship canal and crossing the Mersey. You have a lovely family and it was great to see you all together. Have a wonderful time and here's to 2025. Love to you both 🐕🎄 xx
Happy Christmas Heidi. Thank you for all the vlogs etc this year. Such a shame I couldn't get to meet you this year (northern trains did their usual cancellations thing) but there's always 2025. Merry Christmas to you, Bonnie and you're family
Happy New Year Heidi and Bonny, I think one thing is for certain and that is that Bonny as had the very best year of her life and loves you and boating and van life very much. All the best for 2025 to both of you.
Thanks for your uplifting videos. My partner is going thru cancer for the second year in a row. I can get lost on the canals with your cruises. Thank you.
What a nice home your mum has! Peace and love to you and your family, Heidi. Your vlog is the best of them all. Here's to 2025, fingers crossed! Cheers! 🙂
The tree will really give the Trafalgar Square Tree a run for it's money!! Well, Heidi, you did make an good effort, to bring a little bit of Christmas into the Pirate Ship. Christmas is really for children, I think you will agree. December is nearly over, and hopefully are the long nights and dreary days. Sunshine and warmth is on the way!! Have a happy new year!! John xx
Awww thanks John, I do love Christmas though and the atmosphere of it all … it’s just a bit different when living in your own 😃 the weather will start getting better around March as Jan and Feb are the coldest months 🥶 Happy New Year ❤️😃🏴☠️🥃
Great look back over the year Heidi and so many wonderful memories ❤ look forward to next weeks vlog 😊 wishing you and all your family and friends a very happy New Year ❤ xx

How has this year gone so fast.. Glad to now be on the water, watching you weekly definitely pushed me to just do it! Thanks for the videos, thanks for the inspiration. See you one day on the cut..
Merry Christmas greetings Heidi and Bonnie 🎄👋, lovely to see a recap of your 2024 adventures and how brilliant to see you and all your family having a wonderful time together💕. Have a happy, healthy New Year and I hope 2025 brings you all you wish for Heidi 🥳. I look forward to watching more of your great vlogs next year 😊❤️🐾🤙🏴☠️x
Many have shared the journeys this year with you both, so thank you. You'll end up with more bottles of rum than the ship in Whisky Galore 😅. Cheers with a Tia Maria.
It's so unlike you not to load a video on a Thursday tea time. I hope you are ok, Heidi. Not anywhere near the Bridgewater breach? Look forward to seeing your next vlog, and really hoping you are well, safe and sound until then. x
This has been the first year I've had with no family or friends they're all gone we used a kid when we were younger that we'd all be together forever I'm the only one left it has been very hard Merry Christmas to you all love the ones you've got this life is not forever

My neighbour has been coming round for a coffee every morning since I came home from hospital alone, he’s been so kind and has helped me so much to get through this phase of my grieving process.
Aww I’m so so sorry ❤️
Happy New Year Heidi, Bonnie, Rum Wench and Mom and Dad. A healthy and prosperous 2025 to all of you. Thank you for shining your light on all of us. Cheers, Joseph and Gigi, Cape May, USA.
Aww thank you, same to you 😃🏴☠️❤️
How fast this year has gone by! It seems like yesterday you were cruising the Weaver and challenging the Manchester ship canal. Thanks for all the adventures and I’m hoping you and Bonny take the camper back to Europe this summer. 🏴☠️ 🚐 🏴☠️
I’m trapped now until March, so we are hoping to get away for a month if all goes to plan 😃🏴☠️❤️
Hooray Heidi day and hoping everyone had a Merry Christmas !!!

The tree will really give the Trafalgar Square Tree a run for it's money!! Well, Heidi, you did make an good effort, to bring a little bit of Christmas into the Pirate Ship. Christmas is really for children, I think you will agree. December is nearly over, and hopefully are the long nights and dreary days. Sunshine and warmth is on the way!! Have a happy new year!! John xx
Awww thanks John, I do love Christmas though and the atmosphere of it all … it’s just a bit different when living in your own 😃 the weather will start getting better around March as Jan and Feb are the coldest months 🥶 Happy New Year ❤️😃🏴☠️🥃
