G'day, Yeah, absolutely. Two actually nice people, smart, polite, well mannered, erudite, happily married, raising a secure happy little Toddler, in England, on a couple of Narrowboats, Car-less, cruising the remaining navigable bits of the Industrial Canals, having walked out of the Citybased TV Editing Industry whereinat they met... I exist in the corner of YT where Production Values matter not, because one is The Fool On The Hill, an actual Mad Scientist, living on an Endangered Species Sanctuary ; so the story is what's interesting, not so much the Cinematography (though my second most popular Video was picked up by the BBC Nature Documentary Unit..., & Falmouth University gave me a Gold(coloured) Medal for winning the Low Technology division of their EqualsProject (International YT Videomaking Contest {!}...). These people started out as TV Editors, then they fell in love, got married, moved onto Narrowboats, opened a Cafe, and have now gone Broody... GREAT Story, Very unusual... Captured a lot of people's most fondlycherished Fantasies...; With Brilliant Cinematography to boot. How is it that they don't have Millions of Subscribers ? And I love the way they've Marsupial-parented William... Carried him around EVERYWHERE they go, Showing him Everything they have to do To Make their Life Work... By the time he starts Walking, He'll be Delighted to Follow close behind And Try to help... The Eastern Grey Kangaroos & Swamp Wallabies I share my breakfast with, every Sunrise ; Fully approve the method of Parenting... Such is life, Have a good one... Stay safe. ;-p Ciao !

I'll bet the apartments are beautiful as well. Thanks for the tour. I also love the vegetable dinner you fixed. It looked delicious and I am so envious because when I try to make it the vegetables never seem to get as soft as I like or one thing gets soft another is not nearly done. The only thing I would add to it is a nice slab of corn bread. Y'all have a Blessed evening.

Nice to see a really intelligent couple enjoying the beauty of life itself. Not a 'conventional' lifestyle as who invented 'conventional' anyway. I hope maybe you can settle somewhere for Williams schooling & keep the boat going too with a permanent mooring. Just so nice to see a lovely serious minded intelligent couple make a success of a different way of life instead of what the masses do who live like robots. Wish you continued success x
