This makes you think of all our brave miners who lost their jobs in the 80 s heroes !!

Thank you for these vlogs, I find the waterways a fantastic trip back into the history of our country. Very peaceful and tranquil way to travel. I've never visited these branches of the Grand Union, and I am really enjoying your trips. Look forward to your future adventures. In the meantime, I'll catch up with some of your older ones.

How did you connect the ignition to the 12v may I ask please?

Eggs???

Just watched, not sure if you found out what your 3rd filter was but to me it looks like a pre fuel filter, it’s to help stop any water getting into your engine! Happy travels.

Thanks for the tips. I just find it fascinating... I do talk too much 😅 Thank you for taking the time to comment

You don't have to talk for 100% of the video, 80% is enough. Then a little more steady camera work and we're getting closer to better vlog quality. Then there will be a subscription again.😊

I always enjoy seeing your content, I find it so relaxing. Would like to buy you both a pint or two when we visit the UK this summer!

Hi, thanks for the vlog, well done Karl for remembering the exact morning spot in the pic. I like seeing the moored boats especially any thing traditional, plus the little bit of the baby woodpecker at the end.

I liked the visit to the Triumph factory that’s a good idea for a future destination for us.

Lovely paint job you did there and keeping it gleaming. I caught the Itchy Boots reference yes they are superb travel vlogs (or channel as she referees to it).

I used to tell the kids off if they left a windlass handle on the balance beam like that🙂

Was great to meet you guys to. We had a good time (since repeated in October), -“Old Goose” crew 2.

Great to see you again, from “Old Goose” no. 2 crew

The second Marina you passed is Welton Haven Marina.

I remember biking in the Dales in the 70's, before Hawes became a tourist trap. On a busy Saturday there might be 6 or 7 bikes parked in the main street at the most, not the dozens you see now. And the Ure is pronounced "Yor", as in Yorkshire. York was Jorvik - "the town on the Yor".

Hello, Loved the video, it’s interesting to see people’s reaction to the tunnel on their 1st passage. It does get quite low. 31 minutes is my personal record but that time we were the only boat going South. Sorry for being pedantic but the junction at Hardings Wood (Kidsgrove) is with the Hall Green branch of the T&M. The Macclesfield joins that branch at Hall Green stop lock, 1.5 miles to the north. The T&M were paranoid, to say the least of other waterways joining their canal so built branches out to meet the newcomers and therefore able to charge ridiculously high tolls on them. The worst example of which is further down the canal at Middlewich where the 100yd Wardle Lock branch connects with the Shropshire Union’s Middlewich branch. Happy and safe cruising, Paul

Great view inside the tunnel. Karl did an excellent job! Thanks for posting these vlogs. It is definitely an area we hope to cruise to one day.

Enjoyed your tube. Thanks.

👋👏👏👏👍👍

Its raining here in Grenada too!

Enjoyed watching you cruise on new waters.

❤great start

👋👍👍

Looks so peaceful

It's not the end of the journey but the beginning of the next one! We are currently out on the boat around Stone. Keep forgetting to film anything but are enjoying the cruising. Take care and we look forward to seeing your next big adventure. ❤

What a lovely vlog. Gorgeous cruise and spooky at the Charity boat yard. Does look eerie. And loved the bike ride too. Idyllic lifestyle. Best wishes

That was a walk.😇😇😇

Nice to meet you

Thanks for a look around the Triumph Factory. Stella's Dad would have loved spending a few hours there. Weather looks better than now!

Cool

Hi Guys.

Hello to you both. How are the water levels? Apparently, it's been bad around Stenson. Looks like you picked a good time to get away!

Hello 👋 we have just discovered your vlogs and enjoying catching up with them, find them so interesting and relaxing, we're heading onto water ourselves in a couple of months after years of hiring. Keep up the good work! xx

Hello Feom Grenada 🇬🇩

Hi there. Enjoyed your vlog. Never seen a woodpecker so close, so beautiful. I note Emeralds crotch cover is the aluminium type and that all three sides seem to roll up like tent doors. Would you recommend this type of crutch cover over the more trad heavy wooden types. And if you would recommend your type please would you let me know the make / suppler..many thanks Gary

Great vlog, loved it! Nice to see you at The Tiller Cath and doing so well, very encouraging for us girls🤔maybe one day I’ll get a chance to do it. I hope you had a lovely dinner at the pub, well deserved🤗 Btw, Great job on bathroom. Take care, Susan (oz)

Great to see a lot of our regular cruise from a different perspective. It normally takes us about a week! Can't resisit a visit to the pub 😄

A lovely vlog, it's been a long time since I was called a lovely lady. So nice to be able to say hello.

You see you don't need bow thrusters.... well turned👍

Enjoying your vlogs. That strange noises are muntjac deer barking.

Sunset nufrumos

Just love storms! Will probably watch this over and over ⛈️⚡️yep, probably been struck by lightning sometime 😂 You could try looping it for an ASMR

There is a true magic to those locks and canals. Speaks to a history that shaped the world

Great vlog thanks for sharing 👍

Absolutely Morning Star!

A great look at the boats. We didn't get to look at the boat with the reclaimed material - it looked very impressive. We had a great couple of days at Crick and it has been fun watching everyone's vlogs showing all the different parts of the show. Take care xx
