Cranking on

[@debbiewarburton5588]

So sorry to hear your news. On a lighter note, the mattress in a tree, gives a whole new meaning to Air BnB 🤣

[@stephenpegum9776]

Ha ha - good one Debbie !! 😅😅

[@bjumorrisdatter904]

🤣😂😆😅

[@jonshaw9472]

Me and the Mrs absolutely love this show, we record it and watch it later on...if it was 3 hours long neither of us would move until the end...quality show and top bloke.

[@MessengerRising]

There's something really admirable about a man taking on the world alone. Nobody sees everything you go through Robbie but you're still doing it nonetheless 💪🏻 🍀 😉

[@missr7340]

So sorry to hear about your break up. This last year has taught me how unpredictable life is and how to deal with loss. Your canal diaries show helped me through a really difficult time so thank you for making a difference.

[@kendataylor6386]

Ah Robbie - my heart goes out to you, it really does. Thanks for sharing so much of your life with us. Every blessing - KL x

[@colinfox2516]

Sorry about your upset. But your a handsome young man and new adventures await. Was wondering why you been missing thought it may had been Covid. Always a pleasure to watch your vlogs. Keep up the good work. PS that pulled beef banquet look delicious.

[@ClayDisarray]

I've been really enjoying the show on BBC4, nice to see you have a KZbin channel too 👍

[@nancylovesme]

You are an amazing soul Robbie.One day you will meet someone else and it will be right.So glad you did not give your beautiful boat.I was very ill with covid when i began watching you and you have kept me going.Thankyou.xxx

[@annmariebackhouse5121]

Me and my hubby really enjoy your canal boat diaries,we want to see more!! Sorry to hear your news, your best is yet to come, onwards and upwards...live life to the full,enjoy everyday. It's all an adventure.

[@cherylwevill9980]

It's heartbreaking to hear of your break up. 😥Sending positive thoughts your way. As a fellow boater, you are are one of the few vloggers I watch. Keep cranking it Robbie.

[@RobbieCumming]

Cheers Cheryl that means a lot to me thank you

[@angelabarnett774]

Sorry about your break up, must be really difficult to maintain a relationship when one person is travelling and the other land based Looking forward to seeing the work on Naughty Lass

[@suwhale5748]

Really sorry to hear the news. You have your canal family. If that's any consolation. Love your programmes, I learn so much.

[@richardwitter23]

Stay strong Robbie, like you say ‘keep cranking’

[@SamSitar]

crank through life.

[@eyezlordd]

The dog man

[@davidcollishaw2771]

Mum said that makes you go blind.

[@martinfinch7083]

Keep Cranking Robbie - still playing catch up on the vlogs but loving them as much as i always did.

[@silentwitness247]

In my experience, life is like a novel. You have a rough idea of the plot but every page you turn can reveal something new and unexpected; sometimes good, sometimes bad. Each chapter can reveal a completely new turn of events but you keep reading. In my experience, the ‘story’ turns out right in the end. Keep on keeping on mate.

[@claremaidofthewave251]

Like that 👍🏻👌🏻

[@SamSitar]

turning those pages is the fun part.

[@harveypaterson15]

Onwards and upwards Robbie. These things happen for a reason in your life's path. All the best for the Cranking Year.

[@julesbe3552]

Good to see you're back on the road, er, canal, mate. Thanks for your boldness - must be hard to talk such private matters on screen, but I guess at the same time it's hard not to, as the whole vlog is your private life as much as it is your work :-D And it's right to continue doing what one is good at!

[@cannyexplorer5357]

Just loved watching the 2 series of canal diaries. We have had to stay home for three weeks as we developed bronchitis after both getting a chest infection. Life can throw you hard knocks but it makes you stronger somehow. Keep safe during your travels.

[@leslielutz1874]

You're a keeper Robbie. I feel sorry for the other one 😂

[@donnapeters3126]

As one door closes another door opens, the world is there to enjoy with your cranking adventures... Keep smiling. 🤗

[@danielgornall5643]

Sorry to hear about your break up but watching this is just the therapy I need sat in my van chucking it down with rain outside supposed to be working

[@RobbieCumming]

😂

[@Richardj410]

The up's and down's of life. Glad you good and healthy. Then of course narrow boating my favorite part of watching your videos. Thanks for taking the time to do these and continuing to "keep cranking"!

[@mosschops1974]

Ah Robbie - so sorry to hear your news. Keep doing what you do and be true to yourself. xx

[@joanmccarty6445]

New viewer Robbie you will be fine your a logical, kind man, and have a wonderful thing going….we are glad to find you !

[@ellemdee276]

I can't get over at how adept you are maneuvering that boat. That perfect 90° turn in one smooth motion & then docking in that congested basin? You should teach a class in narrow boat handling!

[@SamSitar]

i would take that class. :)

[@RobbieCumming]

I’d love that I’m a good teacher (after having many bad ones)

[@sarabaldeschwieler7763]

You're a good man, Robbie. All the best going forward!

[@BdManus]

Beautiful videography. I loved the reflection of the trees in the water. Very calming.

[@joannemason5581]

Sending you hugs and best wishes. Thank you for allowing myself and others to be vicariously part of your wonderfully interesting life.

[@oddmanout98]

Very impressed with your turn at the end there Robbie. Thanks for sharing all your videos. I first saw you on BBC and really like your style of presenting. So I was really pleased to see you were continuing to vlog. Sorry to hear about your split though. That’s tough. I wish you well. Atb. Paul.

[@keithellison1345]

Just been to the Spice Factory in Blackburn today. What a wonderful selection of spices, more than I ever knew existed. Thanks for the heads up. Enjoying the TV as well as your vlogs.

[@DeanPorterEsq]

Loving your editing skills, especially at the opening scenes. Keep up the great work buddy.

Hi Robbie, good to hear your chat with Mr Ball well down .

Some amazing photography, upgrading all the scenery with your ability to draw perfection from your camera. Lovely. A very nice vlog with Nev on board to keep the focus on the canal and of coarse, PUB OF THE WEEK. That baguette looked pretty good mmmmm. Thanks Robbie and Nev, keep cranking it, and take care.

[@Rose-Willow]

I'm sorry about your break up. It can be tough, I think we've all experienced the heart break so can empathise with you. How can a lovely guy like you be single? You have an admirer here and I'm sure plenty more! Keep on cranking x

[@jerrymccarthy2744]

Onwards robbie. Remember, when one lock closes, another one opens.

[@unionjack2819]

For every old boot there's an old shoe. Keep cranking it Robbie.

Chin up Robbie. Sorry you've a a turbulent time. Thank you for sharing your life. Your videos are a breath of fresh air to many people. Very best wishes, Bill.

Sorry to hear about your break up, they are always horrible aren't they - regardless of who chose to end things. Good to see you back on the cut again and when you are ready I'm sure you won't be alone for long. (hope that doesn't sound flip).

[@wilfamos7314]

Thanks for another awesome video! Much appreciated. Stay safe Robbie 🙂 Very sorry to hear of the personal problem. All the best.

Hey Robbie nice to see you out and about again. We all miss you. Hey, you hang in there buddy. Soon it will be spring, the birds singing, flowers blooming, warm days. Something for all of us to look forward to. Take care. Head up and keep smiling.

[@bdh3949]

Cool sounds being made as you pass-by on the frozen canal. That is one tight mooring and that pub is worth going to the UK for. Things happen even best intentions can go astray. Having been in similar situations in the past I have come to believe that most things work out for the better in the long run. Thanks for hanging in there and showing us Robbie.

[@kirstierhodes2058]

Good to have you back Robbie . Keep cranking it

[@paulturner7837]

Feel for you mate, hope it gets easier soon. Thanks for the vlog, always great to see what your upto and looking forward to seeing what you do with the Naughty Lass 👍

Always a treat to catch up, Robbie. We're trying to cut out the meat but goddamn do those baguettes look amazing. Great you've got your dad aboard! Hopefully making things less lonesome at this moment in time. Sending good vibes, yo.

[@andyshortland]

.. been following your adventures on BBC4, didn’t realise you had your own YT feed, now subscribed, keep on boatin’ (no g) 👍🏻⚓️

[@cherylspencer8707]

OMG!!! I can’t communicate how ridiculously excited I am seeing the Navigation again! (Daft I know for a 40 year old woman to get giddy over that BUUUUUT I have NEVER seen any BoatTuber go through my home area of Horbury, never mind make the Navigation a focal point!) So... Back-story to all the excitement. Boringly simple really. I was an energetic (read bloody tiresome!) toddler and child. Dad, who’s since passed away, used to walk me and my brother for miles down the canal, stopping at the Navigation for a bag of crisps and to look at the boats before coming back via the ‘scary’ bridge. You’ve just rushed back so many memories. A sincere thank you for this week’s video, Robbie! I can’t wait to live on the water some day... Keep cranking! 🤗🤗😘😘 xx

[@RobbieCumming]

You're welcome Cheryl glad to bring back nice memories for you 😊

[@dr_gimpy]

Sorry to hear it. Safe travels.
