Alternative Living Aboard A Narrowboat (And Some HUGE News)

[@craigwatson4565]

The crust on that bloody bread - oof! Chef's kiss 🤌🤌🤌

[@ItsOhJoe]

😍 thank you!

[@katefinnegan8129]

Best of luck in your new job Dani. I’m sure it will be sad to be without your partner for so long. Internet can’t give you a hug when you need it. But again, it’s only 3 months and the time to do these things is when you are young so keep checking off your dream list.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Aw distance makes the heart grow fonder! I’m sure it will fly by 😊

[@notsohairybiker]

On the upside Joe, no snoring, beer when you want one, go at your own pace, all the sport you can get on TV, happy days!!!

[@ItsOhJoe]

😂😂😂

[@PatriciaDavies-dh2fh]

Hi Danni,I will for sure miss you ,but will keep Joe company congratulations on your new adventure can't wait for you to come back 💓💓

[@lindadouglas9393]

Exciting news Danni! Congratulations 🎉 Joe, your single handed boating skills are brilliant… and you film, bake bread, make lunch , replenish the stern gland and operate the drone… very impressive, love your videos, all good wishes to you both🤗

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you appreciate it!

[@obiblooze5902]

Good luck Danni, it's great that you support each other as you do, lovely couple. What a contrast between the quiet of the canal and the busy busy M5. I know where I'd rather be. Keep the good vlogs coming Joe :-)

[@ItsOhJoe]

Yeah it’s a great contrast! Thank you!

[@isobelchapman9548]

Oh wow what an opportunity…..good luck young lady. More baking and cooking for you young man. Take care and enjoy each other’s company whilst you can xx

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!

[@macmcelroy6165]

all of us will miss you Danni , good luck sweetie

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!

[@bindatek8801]

I'll miss you Danni always happy , but we will still follow Joe and his smiling face, he will keep us company and amuse us, of that I am sure! Good luck with the new job Danni, and enjoy it!! Take care as always!! John

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!

[@phillipsharpe6459]

Congratulations on the new job , beans on tost the staple diet of the man on his own must have sauce, 😁👍

[@ItsOhJoe]

😂😂

[@Mstred]

Congratulations on your new contract Danni. Life is always sure to bring changes throughout. By the way Joe, that bread looked so good. Could you share the recipe or do a cooking episode about it, please?

[@WilliamGladstoneNo91]

Good to see you pair yesterday, and I got a sneak peek of the special guests 🤫 congrats on the new job Danni 🎉 and don't worry Joe single handed isn't all that bad once you get into your own rhythm I'm normally moving us on my own while Emma's busy working away inside.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you! Great to catch you!

[@sandyprosser805]

Oh dear we going to miss you , but congratulations 🎉 Danni on your new job, oh Joe you will have loads of time on your hands now then!!!! It will pass quickly, just keep Danni,s garden going, have great week 😊

[@RetireMentalityChallenged]

Sounds exciting and challenging. I think Danni should collect a weeks worth of little snippets and send to Joe each week to integrate into his shenanigans as he sees fit> Good luck on your new adventure.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Good idea! Thank you ☺️

[@jonathanwright2986]

Thanks

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you so much!

[@nathanberry4339]

Congratulations, I grew up in the channel islands just a word of warning though if your planning on going back and forth using Aurigny be prepared for expensive tickets and unreliability especially if your going to Alderney

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thanks for the tip!

[@CliveBrown-g6t]

Hi Joe! Good project for you whilst Danni is away gallivanting. Make a video on how you can bake a bread, toast it, butter it and then put beans on it within the space of 5mins 😂😂😂. But seriously could you make a video on how you make your lush Breads! that would be absolutely amazing!! 👍👍 😊 Regards Cliff - previous from #hit and Smell it!

[@colinrance5823]

Congratulations on your new job Danni im sure the time will go quickly, maybe you can film bits and send them to add to the vlogs now and again. Better still if you still have vincent joe could visit you and tour the channel islands. Good luck.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Yeah we did think about Vincent! Will definitely share clips of the island!

[@tropicaltrev1617]

I was contemplating buying a narrowboat just before the pandemic hit while working from Vietnam. Then the prices skyrocketed so am now living in the Sacred Valley of the Incas in Peru. Wherever i am in the world i always find myself looking at narrowboat vlogs. Must be a sign. Thanks.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Ah wow, we’d love to travel more to he honest. Peru looks beautiful!

[@SailingSwallowtail]

Oh, my heart is breaking, so bitter sweet. Danni, maybe you can post a short off your iphone from the channel islands. Hopefully the calendula will be blooming when you get home. Joe, this video was brilliant.

[@lynmoore8355]

woohoo how exciting.. Congratulations Danni... 3 months will probably fly by. enjoy, and WOW 2020 you were coming to OZ, where I am hope one day you will come back here and come to Adelaide and can meet you guys... take care.. and enjoy your new job.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you! We hope to visit one day for sure ☺️

[@jimgolden886]

just letting u know paddles are frequently raised at that lock to keep it empty due to leakage problems in the cottage I was told but maybe wrong, but they're always up there when I go through, exciting news for Danni , Joe you'll just have to concentrate on beer of the week more.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Ah that makes sense - thanks for that. We had a few of those on the K&A but usually sings there I’ll make it ‘beerS of the week’ 😂😂

[@cluckgould2954]

Aww Danni i will really miss you. I'm really happy for you though. Joe will be great fun to watch still 😃 ❤

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!

[@annjarvis9300]

Awww well done on getting the job all our very best wishes Joe will miss you so will we but sure the time will fly. Tc now the oldies 🤗🤗👍👍🌟🌺

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!!

[@mishkawp8200]

Enjoy the job Danni - congratulations, hope it goes smoothly. Joe, I’m amazed how you managed to get so much drone footage whilst single handing through all those locks - great work. Love seeing the boat and countryside from the air. Happy adventuring while Danni is away 😊

[@westaussiejeff1547]

Sounds like a great opportunity not to be missed, All the best!

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thanks so much!!

[@christinemarchant4678]

Lovely loaf 😋congratulations Danni enjoy 😊

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!

[@Westexec]

Hi Danni and Joe. Well congrats on the new job. I have just had three and a half months apart from my wife. She is a Canadian by birth and went back last September to visit her family . I had to stay behind to look after our sick doggie who unfortunately passed away in January this year after developing an incurable genetic disease. We communicated on messenger and had face to face calls. I was ticking off the days until she flew back and I had a countdown calendar. The first few weeks dragged but suddenly it was halfway and then the weeks just flew by. She will be home again before you know it Joe. You have the best time of the year coming up. I had the countdown to the shortest day and the worst weather. It will be a great adventure Danni. Enjoy the experience. It will only strengthen your bond. Take care and Joe, keep us posted on here.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you so much! Sorry to hear about your dog, they are such big parts of the family. We will be counting down the days I’m sure of it!

[@johnshaw4140]

Good luck with your new contract Danni , we'll keep Joe company while you're gone

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!!

[@rolandvasquezguzman9083]

Great news Danni, Take care of your self and Joe now you can do what ever you like to do without any control😜😜

[@ItsOhJoe]

😂😂

[@andreaPat70]

Congratulations on the new job Danni I will miss your smiling face and foraging but will continue to follow Joe as he skilfully navigates the waterways single handed. Impressive bread making Joe.

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thanks so much! I might be able to forage seaweed now 😊

[@jenniferpruden4059]

Congratulations Danni, what an opportunity 🎉🎉. 3 months will soon pass Joe. Best wishes for your single handed time on the narrow boat. Love the videos and drone bits. Hope all goes well for you Danni, will miss you. Take care and stay safe both of you.🙋🙏🙏🍾🍺👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩❤️

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you! Yeah I think we’re catching up a bit again now! 😂😂 once you’ve crashed one three times I think you become numb to losing it, I was a bit scared going under the M25 I must admit, tiller steering with my bum 😭😂

[@billywindsock9597]

Just good to see you two each week. I’m sure you will be on now and then.

[@ItsOhJoe]

I’m sure!

[@Tass...]

Congrats on your new job Danni. The time will fly by. The real challenge... Can Joe keep the roof garden alive for 3 months? 🌱

[@ItsOhJoe]

😂😂 Thank you!

[@garyh.1819]

Much success Danni, the Channel Islands’ gain! Q: will you be island hopping? Joe, please stay safe and if the roof garden should fail (it wont’t) theres always plastic 🥕🌶️🥬🥦 and of course “Cooking with Joe” could be a weekly segment.

[@robinacjohnston]

I was running along the towpath from Hemel to Kings Langley yesterday and thought I saw you but was too knackered to say hello. Mentioning cash only at Sainsburys on Saturday caught us out too! Next stretch along to Tring and beyond is truely lovely IMO

Aw amazing! I’m sure our paths will cross again soon 😊

[@eddieroutledge1]

Love the mega speeded up drone footage of going through the locks.... If only!!! Ketchup AND brown sauce on the beans... Sheer indulgence 😅 All the very best for 12 weeks in the beautiful CI Danni. Enjoy.. 😎

[@christinetaylor6897]

So pleased for you Danni, you will love it, I'm sure. Joe how do you steer the boat, go through locks,, go under the M25 and still fly the drone, brilliant filming. However, beans on toast with red AND brown sauce. Ha ha each to their own. Best wishes Christine x

[@ItsOhJoe]

Learning to multitask since being on a boat! Haha

[@markrant1460]

AAAHHH Danni congratulations, such GREAT news!! 3 months sounds like a lot just as a 1/4 year, 90 days is no time at all. Do go safe, as all of us know you will. Joe you are a man of many talents, between boating, beer and baking. Hey that's three "B"s. Until next week, go safe and stay warm. Mark Alberta, Canada (where we still have snow)

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you! Yeah that sounds a bit better 😂😂

[@margaretwhite8996]

Wow new adventures indeed. Congratulations. Have an awesome time indeed. Best wishes

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you!!

[@narrowboatliving8241]

Good luck Danni on your new adventures. Joe, sometimes the paddles and gates are left open on the grand Union because the pounds they feed sometimes run dry. CRT normally leave notices on the gates this affects

[@ItsOhJoe]

Yeah we’ve had ones like that before on the K&A, I didn’t see any signs & the other boater heading down hadn’t heard of them needing to be left open either!

[@narrowboatliving8241]

When you get further along towards the locks at the Tring summit you may find more paddles open as the pounds there are notorious for running low

[@jraphael7044]

Congratulations Danni, v exciting. Will we get the odd glimpse of life on the channel islands via the vlogs? Enjoy, 3 months will fly by x

[@ItsOhJoe]

Thank you! Yes we’re hoping to film a few videos on the island!
