From Navigating CANALS to EXPLORING open Roads | CAMPER VAN LIFE [Ep 101]

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Many thanks for watching, I know a few of you will be asking ‘Why a camper van??!’ Well, the further I cruise my boat away from family & friends the harder it is to visit, plus I can now follow my dreams of travelling on both land and water .....Pirates often go plundering and pillaging on land too 🏴‍☠😁 For more info such as filming equipment, Music, FAQ and more please visit my website - thepirateboat.co.uk🏴‍☠

Oooooooooooo 🐵😯😯🐵

[@milanondrak5564]

Corsairs were land pillaging pirates, pirates plundered at sea and often took entire ships to add to their fleet. Privateers plundered at sea and on land but they did it for a king or country.

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

@@milanondrak5564 so many pirates headed inland to go in search of adventure and treasure too between cruising the high seas 😃🏴‍☠️

[@trevorpoxon401]

Nice to see you getting out and about Heidi. Wherever you go we will be with you. Really enjoyed your adventure on dry land, who knows where you taking us next week 🤔. Look forward to it captain. ❤❤.Trevor & Linda. Ps don’t know why your surprised at being recognised. Didn’t ya know tha famous Up North 🤣😂

[@toniadams6606]

Hi Heidi. Enjoyed watching your adventures with Sandra. I too have a narrow boat (Merlot) and a VW campervan. My mooring is in Waverton, Chester. I am very interested in how Sandra is coping with the Irish Canals. I also would like to ship Merlot over to Ireland as husband dreams of living there. Thanks again. Looking forward to your next adventures. Bye for now. Heather x

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

She is loving it … she has a blog you can follow watergypsy3.wordpress.com/ 😃🏴‍☠️ live the dream 😃

Reminds me when I lived in a VW bus for 6 months in the early 70's. No heat unless the engine was running. Nice bed, sink and campfires for cooking food. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on your new campervan, with this you can escape the dreary places, weather and travel to the Sunshine. You need a holiday from the tube and relax without breaking out the camera.

[@kuukeli]

yay

[@gdotone1]

ocean or sea? let's do this again. love the story time: excellent. let's visit a bunch of places that have stories, lol, lol.

[@elizaphe58]

Lovely I visit Cockerham, Thurnham and visit Glasson Dock with a branch of the Lancaster Canal but sadly the Locks need repairing. I do my Power Walking along the Lancaster Canal. Also Heysham and Morecambe are my days out and short stays plus Lancaster.Carnforth is lovely the train station is so lovely. Love the Camper Van although you do get residents in Morecambe moaning about the Camper vans spoiling the views lol Rita's cafe on the front is a must! I want a camper van lol In 1977 I travelled from my Grandmother's house in Belfast all around the Irish Coast in my Uncle's converted meat van! the best holiday ever! it's great to mix up what you are doing! I did want to live on a narrowboat as a child and Bunkbeds were my narrowboat! although had afternoon tea on one last year! just found a competition to win one lol might give it a go!

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Yes I’ve seen the competition - it looks an amazing boat ❤️

[@davidsedlickas8222]

Superb filming and commentaries on an exceptional adventure. Rocking up at the pub and not being open reminded me of pulling up outside the Anchor on the Shroppie one day and it not open until the landlady felt like it. When it did though I was overjoyed at learning that the band Black Sabbath used the pub for a drink after band practice so I was made up. Hope you are well and all is well with you. Keep safe warm dry and virus free.

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Aww I used to love it in the anchor with olive the landlady 😂 thanks so much for watching David 😄🏴‍☠️

[@Stephens8x6Workshop]

What a super adventure Rum Lass, didn't know you were going to be on my turf for a jot ☺ See you can't stay away from the waterways (he he) Next time your round this way you're welcome to come and have a play and make something in my tiny workshop. If only I could fit it in a narrow boat 😣. Keep your shiny side up. Subbed, liked and rang your bell ☺

Love it Heidi !! “We’ll be in bed by 8 o’clock “…………….” Sandra’s just left it’s half eleven “ 😅😅. A good evening all round. Still watching, not so much bingeing as a shocking realisation occurred to me. Soon I’ll be up to date and then I don’t know if I’ll be able to cope with one new video per week 😳😁. I’ll have to go back and start all over again. Your vlogs are always entertaining, full of laughs, a great insight into the canal lifestyle and addictive. Thank you 👍

Lately i take a cold shower to prepare for your video, didn't feel like it today so i went out on my deck in 0*C naturist style. Got a whoo-who from the new nieghbor lady. She said she didn't know we had comedy routines here as well.

[@derekcarter3446]

My list of Ladies of the of ill repute 1: The Rum Wench 2: Anne Bonny (sailed with Calico Jack) 3: Mary Read (known “friend” of Anne Read) 4: Lady Mary Killigrew (Her husband was tasked by the Queen to hunt down pirates) 5: Maria Lindsey (Married to Eric Cobham ,Stole a ship from the navy dock yard in Plymouth) 6: Grace O'Malley (Fiery Irish red head) 7: Rachel Wall ( The last female pirate to be hung in Massachusetts) All theses Ladies was pirates of some reputation. Number one on this list is still at large , but can be pacified with quantities of liquid gold sold at all good grog shops. If you should see her cruising the inland waterways give her a hearty wave, and never ever try to board her from behind Good sailing Heidi keep the wind at your back and your tinder (firewood) dry

I uprated the electrics on my 7m camper.Bolted a 500w solar panel to the roof, added another 100Amp hour battery. Only wish I had put in a 2000 Wat inverter instead of the 1000W one as it won't power up the microwave when I'm wild camping.

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

There doesn’t look much space on the roof with all the vents and roof windows but I’ll think of something 😃🏴‍☠️

[@paulroberts5677]

It would be wonderful to cruise to the Lakes. We have the same problem with the Stroudwater canal being split by the M5. However, we are going to dig a tunnel under the M5 (I wanted to put a lift bridge across it). We have brought the cut under the A38. Need to dig another mile of canal too. Google Stroudwater Canal.

Heidi, I just Love your little camper van !!!! Cheers!

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

P.s a great piece of kit to get for the van is a small pair of sturdy metal tyre ramps - the hard plastic ones just sink into soft ground, or snap on hard surfaces. They come in handy if you’re parked somewhere overnight and you want to level out the van. Just to stop the blood rushing to your head whenever you lie down. 🙂🐿🌈❤️

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Ooh I’ll look into them, thank you 😄❤️

That was a bloody great video Heidi. Those vans you and Sandra have are fantastic, my opinion, I stress MY opinion, they’re one person vans but hell I’d love one.

Fantastic towns you stopped in, very pretty, we did 4 weeks on a narrowboat then 4 weeks hire of a motorhome in the UK, it’s very pretty and so different to Oz, loved it. Very much enjoyed that, thanks for taking us on the trip. Stay safe. 💕
