Great cruising video! Thank you!

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Thanks Helly🙏, glad you enjoyed watching! Thanks for watching and w!👍

[@johngrant7979]

Enjoyed the video 👍 Have you ever thought about getting one of those small compact fold up walking tread mills. Pat could put it in front of the tiller and walk the canals like Eileen does but whilst steering the boat 👍

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Well there’s a thought!! 🤣😂. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

😂🤣, couldn’t resist sharing that one! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@brodie2711]

A lovely cruise is always enjoyable to watch. Sweet picture of Pat having a kip with your grandchild. Ellesmere Port boat museum is looking a bit sad at the moment probably because of Covid and a lack of money. Thanks for the Vlog. All the best. Stephen

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Glad you enjoyed watching Stephen👍. I think we are going to add a little video of the boat museum to a future vlog. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@Rovinman]

Another nice Vlog, but that stretch of canal, seems very overgrown, with a few rusted hulks which I'm sure could have been restored . Looki g forward to the next Vlog ! Stay safe ! Stu xx

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

The stretch from Chester to Ellesmere is sadly underused. It also sad to see so many rusted boats, some were CRT boats! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@johndashwood7671]

Nice one. Liked the picture of Pat in the chair. Keep well.

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂, thanks John! 👍

[@susanpgi1579]

Forget the vlog - the photograph of Pat snoozing with your granddaughter is beautiful and touches ones heart strings. 🥰

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂, quality grandad time! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@berniebne8243]

Looking forward to the Lithium Battery video.

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Hopefully in a few weeks, there’s been a bit of a delay with the delivery of a main component! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@sheryld1957]

Just a cruising video? We live for these. Thank you!

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Glad you enjoyed it Sheryl! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@richardclark148]

A just cruising vlog seems a long time since we had one and it was lovely.....pleased you got to see family at last great photo of Pat snoozing with grandchild and so many water lilies on this canal...very surprising to see a large ship over the rooftops as you moored up

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Glad you enjoyed watching Richard🙏. It was great to see the family after a long year! It’s so much time in their little lives! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@phillipbateman2284]

Must have been lovely to see the family after such a long time. Pat looked as if he was helping out alright. Eileen, you must walk a million miles in a year, keep it up, you're looking great. Thanks for the vlog, I've been watching the olympics to fill our winter days. NZs doing ok, but we're a bit small to mix with the big boys and girls. Take care.

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂, always time for a snooze! We haven’t had a chance to keep up with what’s going on on the Olympics apart from the occasional news reports! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vid keep up the good vids on the cut with frend and crank it stay safe lee

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Thanks Lee🙏. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@tonycarter3756]

I never realised until this vlog that Eileen is a tiller girl ! And Pat you are so right about retiring l know there are ‘nt enough hours in the day!

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

You’re quite right Tony, so much to do! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@borderreiver90]

You must get up to the Lancaster canal and cruise it...no locks unless you go down to Glasson Dock....time Pat did some walking to keep fit and let Eileen steer the boat for a while......

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

We’ve done the Lancaster Canal kzbin.info/aero/PLaPoGUm1NN2t8O7Zd8DLnWAlXYr9dayxV, loved it, especially at Glasson docks. Agree with you about me driving the boat more often, I really need the practice! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@lyndamorrissey6646]

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

[@davewhiteley2483]

Think we cut the grass your mooring spot 🤣🤣👍

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂🤣, thanks Dave, we moored there specifically as the grass was shorter! 👍

[@dwc123fitlady]

Getting caight up with the vlog. Were the shells of barges left along the canal abandoned?

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Thanks for watching Donna🙏, yes they were all abandoned! ☹️

[@pocketchange1951]

👍👌🇨🇦❤

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

👋🙏👍😊. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@carolynkotlas2248]

All these derelict boats in the video…does the CRT ever clear them out of the canals?

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

It doesn’t look like it Carolyn. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@TheSkskitey]

Nice cruise . Mr negative here again , i see Pat managed to hit the tied up CRT barges and also i think you need a blacking as the sides of the hull are very beat up . I know it's hard to keep the hull black with all the locks and moor ups etc . I love your vlogs by the way :-)

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂, hello Mr Negative 👋, Pat didn’t actually hit the CRT barge, as it wasn’t tied up very well it banged the bank as we passed. We are hoping to patch up the blacking when we get to a suitable mooring spot! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@monkeywhite5711]

I live right near there not many people visit here

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

The stretch from Chester to Ellesmere Port is sadly underused! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@yumikostettler4544]

Did you say " speed camera" ?

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂🤣, yes, as we passed at 2 mph! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@richardfoote4518]

Interesting video but Pat didn’t dance. Enjoyed ir

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

🤣😂, I’ll make sure he puts a little dance in just for you Richard! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍
