So glad the trolley made it back to Jay. What a wonderful thing Andrew did…saving the baby duck was so sweet. Kris, don’t let a few bonks get you. You seem to be coming along just swell. Hats off for not getting discouraged, you got this. I found it interesting about the tiller handle. How fabulous that Andrew’s mom found the one his family used. Can you please explain about the plaque regarding Andrew’s family on the bridge? Be well and thank you for letting us come along.
Thanks so much Lisa ❤️! Good question, I should have given a bit more context. There was a plaque on the bridge for years (this is it www.picturesofengland.com/England/Northamptonshire/Braunston/pictures/1195341) which disappeared a few years ago and no one knows what happened to it. We’d like to get it replaced and put back where it belongs!
Hey Kris. Thank you so much for the link. I will be sure to watch as I am fascinated with long boats. I was watching a video this morning about one that sunk because of the recent flooding in Barrow on Soar. Hope all is well.🦆
Isn't there a theory on the interwebs about how ALL gingercats in the whole world probably share like 4 braincells alltogether? I have a gingercat, and the stereotype holds true in his case.
I have a ginger girl and can confirm, they are a different breed! "Sometimes I think this cat is a genius and other times I think she's an idiot" - well, that's cats in general! Applies to people too 🤣
I’m sure that you have already been asked and answered this question (if so, sorry), but please could you share the name/brand of your torch 🔦. It’s awesome, well done.👏 🙂🐿🌈❤️ P.s I’ve just realised what I wrote/asked above - So, the brand of torch is fine, but if you’ve also given it a name, hey, I’m down for that too. 🤣
Haha, I should give it a name, it is after all an essential part of the boat infrastructure 😂 it’s a Shadowhawk LED 30000 lumens rechargeable torch, if you search that it should come up. Can’t vouch for if it’s a Forever Torch yet, but I assumed that I would lose or break it, so I wanted to go for something on the economical side.
"Cubby" Broccoli would be proud; opening with a bit of product placement was a genius idea and I am sure the cheque from Harry Stiles will go some way towards re-blacking the boat next year - good call. And what a great idea to launch a Summer video during these glum winter days (my heating is making all the right noises but I occasionally stand in the driveway to warm up!). Moving from product placement some genuine drama with not one but two plot lines. The duckling saga obviously aimed at Millennials while us older coves found solace in the great shopping trolly story - and how historic... forget about Andrew's family heirloom tiller peg, can you imagine Thomas Telford witnessing the opening of his masterpiece Ellesmere canal and, while the great and good stood around applauding in wonderment, someone causally emerged on the towpath and chucked a shopping trolley in............ telephone lines with dangling trainers, canals and shopping trollies, they are natural bedfellows. Anyhoo, the trolley made it home and with the added benefit of a sex change. As it dismounted the boat it was a she and by the time it reached the far side of the car park she became he - very PC. As usual, loved the camera work, editing and music - the bee was lovely and the unhurried way you let the butterfly exit the frame rather than follow its course. I must admit I still spare a thought for working boat owners who live in about a third of the space you occupy but its great they keep those old vessels alive. Until the next time, keep enjoying canal-side pubs, enjoy the onboard navigation banter and enjoy each others company - you are blessed.
Thank goodness 😅 the trolley got back to Jay. Love that you were able to get Andrew and the cart reunited in the shop along with its two sibling carts. Kris you are the swan/duck/goose whisperer, not so sure about cows and sheep though think 🧐. But, it was another great rescue…..although maybe not as dramatic as the trolley or Andrew’s rescue of the water cap. You have to admit that was epic! I went back and rewatched the “The Grand Re-Union” video, that was so good. Love that you have a feline escort when you are out for the evening. Another beautifully shot and edited video. Thank you for making a windy, snowy day, a delightful one. 😊🤗❤️ Kathy
You’re so right, we really peaked with the water cap. Don’t think he’s rested on his laurels though, he pulled something fun out in the last few months from a lock 😂 but no spoilers!!
The shopping cart saga 😂 I looove the watering can swan! Watering swan? Amazing. Also: the ginger cat, too cute. And so for the duck and her tiny baby. And: how many Harry Styles shirts do you guys have? 😄 Lovely vlog as always :)
As per…you post a well paced/edited, stylishly shot Vlog!! 🤗 You guys are very likable, regularly save wildlife and now shopping trolleys😂…as well as now you can service your own engine! 🥴…what’s next!?🤭 Look forward to the next beautifully crafted snapshot of your lovely life on the cut!!🙃 Ps…love the hat…your style is sublime!! 🤗😘 Ben..x.
The duckling rescue was amazing. So glad mother duck made her woes known - and that you understood her. Trolleys cant communicate like that, but nevertheless….
Lovely to see you both back with a new video. 'Dry January' was swiftly aborted at around 10 minutes after that delightfully cold lager shot...far too easily influenced.
Ahh, lovely to go back to summer for a while and I found myself remarkably soothed by a shopping trolley finally home in its rightful place. What just happened to me?! 😂
You know already that chucking summer stuff out in the middle of winter will make everyone jealous and hate you but you just don't care. I admire you for that. I would have taken the same approach. Am considering going a bit tranny again (used to do it in my relative youth) and am paying attention to you for fashion tips. Don't agree with all your clothing decisions. Am not a mindless fanboy. But do so, so, so enjoy your vids. Many thanks from myself and Wallace. xx
Love your vlogs but what's that about 'back on our steak bullshit'........ F#@K the veggies and vegans it is their loss...... enjoy it, after all, thousands of years ago our ancestors were hunter gatherers and killed to eat and live, and I don't think tender stem broccoli, red peppers and asparagus would have been on the menu!!!. Keep up the good work.💋
😅 can't hate on the veggies, some of my besties are! I do very much enjoy a good steak though. We try to buy good quality meat from a decent source (farms, local butchers) as much as we can. Having said that, those cows given the chance would definitely kill us.
@fatbloke1953 what the hell! Firstly, why do people feel it is acceptable to spread unsolicited hate on Vegans? Cheers mate, total random rudeness. Secondly, what’s with the living like your ancestors. Do you crouch in your mud hut and stare in wonder at the big yellow god in the sky? In fact do you consciously aim to emulate your epocryphal predecessors in any way? Probably not. But you use the example where it suits you to soil a happy Video. @krisatomic. Thanks for the sensible reply.

Guys we have had many a sleepless night awaiting the outcome of the trolley saga. Thank you for completing our journey. Safe travels ❤
Haha! Very glad to deliver a happy ending!!

We have the same it is called no cut May. but as it is now June the have cut the paths now, and some of the parks as well.
I do wonder just where the rest have gone as they can have up to ten some times. Well that is ducks life .

💖💝💞 you're so right about the working boat cabins, we are living in many feet of luxury! LOVE your commentary as always. x
Yes why they do that is so bad as if they do it once then they will do it again and again that is a shopping trolleys.
Good evening you two, lovely video , gosh your videos are so beautifully done, thank you for perspective as well.
Thanks so much ❤️

Lovely vlog! Can we see more of the sweet kitty, Matilda? 🙂

Another classic vlog, 10/10. The electric fence made me 😂 (sorry) the amount of times they’ve caught me out.
Xx
I enjoy your videos so much. So glad you rescued baby duck. I think Mum brought him back to say thank you ❤
Thank so much! ❤❤❤
Just what January needed !
😎☀️
The shopping cart saga 😂
I looove the watering can swan! Watering swan? Amazing.

Too kind, thank you Ben 🥰
Hahaha Matilda I feel is representative of most of us....genius/idiot 😂
So true 😂
The duckling rescue was amazing. So glad mother duck made her woes known - and that you understood her.
Trolleys cant communicate like that, but nevertheless….
Hahaha ❤️
Lovely to see you both back with a new video. 'Dry January' was swiftly aborted at around 10 minutes after that delightfully cold lager shot...far too easily influenced.
oh noo haha! Cheers!
"think of your ankles!" 😂
Ahh, lovely to go back to summer for a while and I found myself remarkably soothed by a shopping trolley finally home in its rightful place. What just happened to me?! 😂
Haha, it's nice when something goes right for once!
lol that's so cute. "The duck is going ape shit". Hahah. Glad to see she recovered her duckling.
We were very happy to help, hope they’re both doing well out there! 🦆
❤ this made me miss summer, but also, after watching this, I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I am looking forward to the next one.
Thank youuuu ❤️
I do love a duck rescue, well done.
It's so nice to watch a summer video in the middle of a grey winters day. So thank you for that.
Cheers Millysue
So nice to hear that, thank you ❤️
Thrilled to see the trolleys reunited 😁 and the ducks!
Another lovely video 😍
Thanks so much! 🥰❤️
Beautiful cinematography and edit once more ❤ the ginger guard cat too ❤
Thank you very much ❤️
Love your vlogs, beautifully edited, thankyou 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
It's nice to see summer nature when it is -20 outside right now. Cheers from Finland.
Thank you! Stay warm out there!
Thanks for the reminder of summer, I had forgotten what it's like.
It feels so far away doesn’t it! 🌞🌻
Always a treat when you post. Glad the duckling is safe! 🐥

I don’t know if I’m at my fashion best here Brian if I’m honest, I can do better. Delightful comment, thank you.
You are most welcome, m'dear. Keep 'em coming.@@krisatomic
I love how you showed that electric fence who’s boss. 😂
LOL 😌
Your videos are so good that I give you a thumbs even before I watch it
Ahh that’s very kind ❤️

Are these two in any way competent?
