Hello, Can you tell me how your narrow boat came to be in France? Did you sail it across the English Channel yourselves? Best of cruising.

I love the French canals, especially the Canal De MIDI, so picturesque and from what I’ve seen mostly lock keepers to help boaters through locks. Thanks for a lovely vlog, I’ve only just found your channel. X
@shirleygreaves96502 жыл бұрын
Wow I can’t believe in France toilet waste goes straight into the canal, that would be a strictly big no in U.K.! I’m glad I’ve found your vlog and I’m looking forward to watching more from you. X

Me as a man see women sometimes and am amazed by the beauty of those woman ,there are many many gorgeous women but sometimes some are incredibly, not just beauty but an aurora so amazing as a man you can not help but be transfixed .I hate modern life as you stare you are some sort of pervert ,but all that passes in my Brian Is to love that woman forever ,but in reality the dream is unattainable or beauty is skin deep ,not all men are perverts or sex manics ,but many women don't mind the looks if it is a six pack hunk .And if you dress and look amazing you will attract if you don't like don't do it as most of us are only human and the real bad men are far and few the media loves like much to make things seem like the world is full of horrible .someone staring may be looking and dreaming of love even if they know it is impossible, without dreams life would be even more dull.take care..

I hope to move to the UK just for the canals. I plan on doing a restoration if the hull is solid. Did you get a survey before you bought it? I seem to have a problem with them making me pay for a survey if only to find it needs plating. Is that how it works?

As someone who can remember my mother and sisters dressing like this, I love every look. I also appreciate that you are not heavily tattooed. I see so many women who are fifties style enthusiasts who have huge honkin' tattoos all up and down both arms and legs. I thin that it really detracts from the nostalgic aesthetic, since women did not get tattoos in the fifties.

Apsolutley love the 50s. My personal favourite decade is the 30s, the mix of 20s and 40s if you will. I am aware of the terrible things that happened throughout the entirety of the 1900s, but I still feel accustomed to these decades. Wonderful dresses, lovely presentation. I like this video

Given that we have 1000 immigrants crossing the channel in rubber dinghy's everyday, I assume crossing the channel in a narrowboat is possible. But is it legal?
@velianlodestone12493 жыл бұрын
Yes it is; however the crossing is not insurable unless you are insured through the presence of a skipper & over-the-canal shipping. I believe you also need to have VHR.

Hello from the UK Thankyou for such a lovely cruise along the rivers in France.. What lovely scenery you have.. Ive only travelled once abroad for a holiday with friends to canary island. Was not very impressed. Give me a boat on a river or canal with lovely scenery anytime. I'm hoping to buy a 60ft widebeam in about 8 years time here in uk to enjoy the rivers and canals.. Best wishes John
