Never sell yourselves short. Out of all the other KZbinr's we could see at the luncheon, frankly you're the only ones we'd cross the street to say hello too. The majority of them are either whiny, self-involved, always stressed about something, and then there's the guy who hasn't seen a comb or shaver in a very long time. We've always loved you guys the best, plus William is far more advanced then any other child we've seen, and that is a fact! There we said it, no apologies, and we mean it all. Take care, be well until we see you again ~💞🤗Lacy, Mike & Hamish 🐾🐾 And a few whales for William 🐳🐋🐳🐋

We are visiting the UK from Lexington KY USA, and while in Manchester I realized, we were a short train ride from Macclesfield. So I asked my wife if she was up for a short adventure to see if we could find Holly the Cafe Boat and have cake and coffee. The Taxi said he knew right where we needed to go, but after dropping us off we discovered we were three miles down the canal. As we were walking we met this lovely lady who gave us a history of the area, and show us the way to the Cafe boat. I briefly meet Joanna, and we ordered the Raspberry lemon cake and the Double chocolate cake, both were wonderful. As was the cappuccino as well. I would encourage you to visit whenever you are in the area. Thank you Vic and Joanna. Keep doing what you all are doing. All the Best

Just a little tip. The toilet fan, that breaks down "frequently", DON'T buy a replacement. Be a JIC, and buy at least 2, and preferably 3. A JIC is a "Just In Case" person. An Optimistic Pessimist, who looks forward to things going wrong, so is never disappointed. Reduces stress by amazing amounts. And, before starting any repairs, always waggle your finger at it, it just might start behaving. Interesting video. Did you spend the whole night at the office? ZZZZZZZZZZ on the floor, or the desk?

The thing that got me is that train companies would rather see people sat in the hallway floors (surely a health & safety risk for them) rather than allow people to sit in their empty seats, crrrrcrrrrazy times! I’m sure it wouldn’t be the end of the world for them to have taken a small token payment for you to sit there, say a fiver or something

The first time I went on a canal boat was in the 80s, on the Grand Union from London to Birmingham area. It rained for two weeks, the towpaths were under a metre of water, you couldn't see the edges. Us kids were stuck in the boat, poor Mum and Dad were wading to do the locks. Eventually we gave up when my sister fell overboard because the ladder was slippy. She was OK. Everything was wet. When we got home we had clothes hanging everywhere and had long hot baths. Don't feel bad when it rains a lot, its different when you're on a boat.

What a tonic that was... I've been so sick and nauseous all day but finally could sit still and watch something. Yes, I absolutely fast-forwarded through the gross parts (thanks for the warnings) and also over what I'm sure was a delicious meal! Too soon! 😬 Thanks for making me smile after a rather grim day.

I’ve seen the add of your boat. Here in London we have a nice weather. Still rains here almost every other day. But when we finished with winter you guys still had frozen lakes and stuff … Yesterday I believe we had the same storm with thunder and rain the whole night. My wife couldn’t sleep at all where as I woke up twice but went to sleep instantly. If you guys need a canopy is best to make your own. I’ve started mine and looks amazing. I do need to cut some edges and stitch together things. My sink doesn’t have bilge pump and even my shower doesn’t. Water comes out straight away. 😎
