40. Sometimes Narrowboating ain't fun! Wet, cold & windy plus a very rowdy city mooring.

    I totally feel your pain.
    I have Acrophobia too.
    I always tell people, I'm not scared of falling, I'm scared of the sudden stop at the bottom !!!

    It was lovely to see such a lovely couple on such a rainy day ☔️ Beau our 6 month old cocker spaniel says hello too.
    Beau fell in canal so you might want to think about life jacket’s for your two little doggies. Took me an hour to wash all the black horrible silt out of him. Have a great time wherever your travel to next 🙂x

    From Birmingham, so was nice to see it from a different perspective, I don't often visit that area but will try and visit to see where you moored your boat. Keep up the good work, love all your videos.

    First time watcher, really enjoyed the blog.
    I'm originally from Brum, I left there 12 years ago but as a kid I would often go to the guillotine lock and jump the gap with friends, the things you do when you're young 😊
    In the next few years my partner and I are looking to move from our small holding to a canal boat but we're looking at an end of garden instead of continuous cruising.

    • @thenarrowboatgoodlife
      @thenarrowboatgoodlife  4 місяці тому +1

      Welcome! What a lovely idea, we may look for a garden mooring in the future once we’ve had our fix of exploring! Good luck with your plan. Thanks for watching ☺️

    That was a really good watch! We’re narrowboaters too but currently landlubbers because our doggy is recovering from surgery. This was great coverage of Birmingham. I think your channel is one of the best ‘narrowboating’ ones.
    Ps I’m English, hubby is Scottish - our boat is Capercaillie.
