Can I Finish Painting Our Narrowboat Before Winter?

Painting the outside of our narrowboat is a lengthy process, and it is taking me longer than I predicted. As everything is on a boat, and now I have to fit this project in a short weather window.

The weather has been horrible for the last 6 months really. So I wish you the best of luck!!

All this sanding? Years ago I pre-winter, almost panic, painted a large Victorian bay window out side. No time to sand or do any prep. It was a case of 'you can have any colour you like, as long as you don't mind the spider webs the same colour'. Prep was a wipe with a rag soaked in white spirit followed immediately by a brush with the paint. That paint job lasted seven years!

Love your melt and pour soaps. I have been a soapmaker for 22 years now and had a business for around 10 years. I do mostly cold process goat milk soap. It is a very fun hobby. Be careful putting botanicals on top of your soap and they can clog up your drains.

Just a little tip(yes I know its late) but if you put a Din liner over your paint trays, when you have finished you just throw away the liner in the Bin, also you can wrap a paint brush tightly in Cling film and it will still be soft and useable the next day, hop this helps.

You've done an amazing job! Alba looks fabulous 😍

Excellent paint job. Well done! I hope it lasts well after all that work. Where do the dogs live when they aren’t having sleepovers with you? They are so cute ☺️

Hi guys Alba is looking lovely with the freshly painted gunnels, u definitely had good weather to paint her and to be able to catch a few rays of sun. I don't think it will be long till ur little visitors will be back. Thanks for the vlog M&M its good Friday nite viewing 😊xx💜

[@RetireMentalityChallenged]

Looking good! I hope you put some grip tape or something along the gunnels too.

The bread looked amazing. Your vlogs are always so relaxing to watch.

[@colin7878]

Your bread looks wonderful, what is your recipe and method?

[@sheilajoseph9953]

Good job painting.😊

[@dawnrodriguez6280]

Good job guys !

[@robinblackmoor8732]

How about a shout out for bread. Wheat is basically not edible. You manipulate wheat a bit, add a few other ingredients, and then after you cook it you have fantastic bread.

Isn't Toady up for sale

[@CruisingAlba]

Yep, the new video is out now 💜

Put tin foil in paint tray. When finished throw away. No need to clean tray,,,,

I’ve tried it on the other side and it didn’t work for me
