Another lovely interesting episode thank you.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Our pleasure! x

[@redhmanchesteruk.]

So nice to see one of these videos with a cruiser stern. Great boat.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi again. Yes we like our cruiser stern. Glad you’re enjoying our channel. 👍

[@redhmanchesteruk.]

@@cruisingontheborder Yeah, definitely, done a few boat trips and holidays over the years. Nice to watch and reminisce and see the many places I've never been to.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Great. Glad you liked narrowboating when you did it yourself. Guess it’s nice through our videos to see places you didn’t get chance to visit. 👍❤️

I feel the same about nature. I keep windows open to hear the bugs and frogs...like Crickets, Katy Dids and tree frogs. I always felt so much better outside. It is as if it opens up my my world to me. ...... My dog and I went to the park at the dam early this morning, and under the giant Oaks was the best breeze......felt so good. She had a wonderful time tracking as there are Deer, Racoon, Possum, Coyotes and possibly Bobcat, frequenting the river coming from the forests on the hills. We go about four times a week. We have to have it. It's food for the soul. I sing in the car and she barks with me. She starts soon as we head for the park from McD's. She even tells me when she's ready to leave McD's. We have a great time on our outings in nature.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Getting into nature is the perfect way to relax and chill. Sounds like you love it as much as we do.

[@lovelyskull3483]

Thank you. So relaxing, except for the water run.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Your very welcome 🙏 hope you keep enjoying them. Love your comments.

[@ParabrisasMotocicletas]

30 degrees and I thought for a second that Mike still standing strong 💪on the tiller in long pants 👖 😂.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi again Yes I’m a stalwart! The tiller has to be manned as you know. A skippers life can be tough! 😜

[@ralphtomlinson2461]

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi David. Thanks for the nice comment. Glad you like our channel. We had to post the latest episode 3 days later than normal but are back on track now so a new episode this coming Wednesday as usual. 👍

[@sharoncampbell206]

Now, in August in Ky., U.S.A. it's going to 37 C actual temp.on Friday, going from 93 F, today, Tues., 8/22j. Have to go out very early each day, or very late, nearly dark. Hate HOT weather. I don't like AC, either, so using it sparingly during the day, and opening doors and windows at night. I turned it on this morning to head off the heat. Love the show.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Thanks Sharon so pleased you are still enjoying. It sounds very hot with you....

[@kenwiggins2699]

Enjoy your videos. Jackie is beautiful.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi Ken. Glad you like our channel. Jackie will be flattered with your thought re her being beautiful. Thank you and stay tuned as they say Ken.

[@foreverdroningon]

Lovely video. If you are ever in Newbury again. In the wharf near the bus station there is a toilet block which has a drinking water tap outside. Keep up the good work ..

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi lovely to hear from you and thanks for letting us know about the facilities 👌👌. So pleased you enjoy our little waterways adventures 💕💕

[@foreverdroningon]

I watched a few episodes and you brought back a few memories for me as I lived near the canal just downstream of Aldermaston and used to boat and fish there a lot as a child. The water was not good in those days as one of the factories would pump filth into the canal. Some days the water was very clear and I could see the bottom but there was no life there. Other days the water was covered with foam. All the locks were in a state of disrepair and looked more like waterfalls as the water came over the top of the gates, Thankfully it has all be restored now for people to use. Best wishes John@@cruisingontheborder

[@cruisingontheborder]

@foreverdroningon wow John lovely to hear your story. Great section of the network 💕💕

[@ianmac-uk]

[@ianmac-uk]

Thanks for your comment Drew 👍

[@theubiquitusgastronaut8273]

You raise some good points of view regarding a car. It must be a tough decision. Would love to know a bit about your backgrounds. Are you both retired? Cheers

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi again Hope your well. In the end we decided to keep the car for now as we have a bit of travelling to do this winter. We both do work online as freelance. I’m ex Royal Navy and Jaq was an accountants Director. Take care and thanks for your comment. 👍❤️

[@patmancrowley8509]

33 Degrees celcius is 91.4 degrees fahrenheit thereabouts so it's not too bad. How is the humidity? My brother in Phoenix Arizona experiences 40.5 degrees celcius and they say that since the humidity is way low that the heat isn't bad. I'll bet dollars to donuts that you could bake several loaves of bread in a parked car!

[@cruisingontheborder]

Man… Arizona is HOT!! 😎😎😎

[@patmancrowley8509]

Have a Tom Collins to cool you off.

[@cruisingontheborder]

Ooohh I love a Tom Collins.. not had one of those for years. Remind us of the ‘recipe’? ❤️👍

[@rayclarine793]

Not so warm in Scotland we have had a few hot days so global warming will be ok up here

[@cruisingontheborder]

It's not so warm here in Yorkshire at the moment either!!! It's nearly June too. Great to hear from you, keep the comments going.

[@Mommles]

May I ask y'all's ages?

[@cruisingontheborder]

Hi M Thank you for taking the time to leave us a comment. Michael’s old Jackie’s not. 🤣🤣🤣
