Great job to clean the stove, it looks like new. Beautiful photography of all the stunning old houses. The group of geese blocking the way 😀 I am not sure if I would pass inbeteen them. Thanks for another very nice video.

Beautiful cruise. Loved the family of ducks on the path. I presume they eventually moved to let you pass. Your stove was beautiful after you both done your maintenance on it. Looked brand new. Thank you again.

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Glad you enjoyed watching Shirley 😊, re blacking the stove certainly made a difference, we were pleased with the results. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

I had a Morso Squirrel in my kichen, years ago. I put a back boiler in it. Tons of hot water. Cooked a very good baked potato in it.

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Hi John👋, yes the baked potatoes are fab, one of the best things about a solid fuel stove is the baked potatoes and slow cooking on the top of stove!👍 Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

Thanks Lee👍

Very good work on the stove. New glass and the blacking made all the difference. Interesting to see inside the grate with all its different components. Reminded me of the old Rayburns, when we had to replace the fire bricks. There was some wonderful bird song in one of the scenes.

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Thank you guys😊, glad you enjoyed watching. It certainly did make a difference, almost looked brand new when we completed it! Glad you enjoyed the birdsong to, it was a lovely spring day! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

Those thashed house are a Farmers dream. How often would they need to be re thatched do you think?

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Apparently they can last between 20-50 years depending on how you keep them maintained! Who da thought it! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@bencooper6284]

Did I pass you in Uppingham last week Eileen? I did a double take as I couldn’t believe it was you….

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Err, possibly we were in the Leicester area last week! You should have said 👋. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

[@rexgeorg7324]

couldn't find your video in my KZbin search guys I typed in the word "narrowboat"

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Thanks for letting us know Rex, not sure why, maybe we have a setting wrong or haven’t categorised it properly. I’ll get Pat to look into it as we are not getting many new subscribers lately.

[@rexgeorg7324]

@@ournarrowboatquest4894I did notice all the ones that came up used the word norrowboat in their title

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

We have tried that but haven’t been consistent, so we’ll try doing that again.

[@rexgeorg7324]

well done all sorted - 4th on the list (on upload date)
