The symmetry with moving your boat, and you moving forward both with your website and being on the television program is quite a neat trick. And shows how the world has way funny little way of doing things. Hope you have a wonderful week ahead of you

I have left my boat on mooring pins on 4 occasions now and come back to find it floating off. One night in a storm it floated off down the canal and I didn't realise until I pulled open the curtains and saw water on both sides. When I use pins, I now put four in and put them to form a rope triangle at the bow and stern. Looking forward to seeing your TV adventures!

Another great vlog, and quite educational too, so thanks for that. Great to hear your "bits" of news too, that's so positive. Look forward to seeing you on the tellymabox next week. Have a great week!

I instantly have a smile on my face when I watch your channel. Your positive outlook and lovely smile is an oasis in a world full of horrible stuff. I struggle to parallel park my car so I’m impressed to watch your skills on the water. Really look forward to seeing you on the telly, how exciting. Will be checking out your website for sure. Take care of yourself 😊👍😊

Greetings from the hill country of south Central Missouri, US. The Ozarks. Have enjoyed watching , that is an interesting way to live, very nice boat. Looking forward to future videos. Thank you👍

A walk down the tow path , singing and strumming ! Healthy relaxing easy to prepare food ! Mays floating herb garden ! With due respect to you May a 10 minute meander on the tow path probably means more to us land Flubbys than the narrow boat fraternity! 😊😊😊😊

[@adrianmichell2751]

..... More to us Land Flubbys than it does to the narrow boat fraternity!!!!😊😊😊😊😊

I've just subscribed on your website and Facebook I know I've just sent a comment on here but I just thought I'd let you know I will look forward to your meditation/yoga videos and blogs and what ever you do on Facebook

[@philcudworth8491]

Ace video May. I couldn't be more opposite. I never take my phone out of the boat when moving. I'm too clumsy! O tie my middle rope first.

[@adrianmichell2751]

Very interesting,thankyou ! 😊😊 Any May video will be a great video ! 😊😊 Journey with May on the inland waterways 😊😊😊😊

[@clivebuckland6902]

Well done May another great, interesting vlog. You are a mind of information and make it so informative, as well as educational . Will be watching Narrow Escapes How exciting and the web site too 👏👏👏👏

[@bobbieboothroyd8531]

[@mayhemmayo]

THANK YOU MAY. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

[@CuffyScrunt]

Looking forward to Narrow Escapes, I have sky+’d that!

[@oldmanhuppiedos]

If you sail alone, it is quite a job to moor safely. Nice that you are on TV, Chanel 4 can be watched via the internet.

[@tangs167]

Hope you managed to get some wood and kept warm last week. Looking forward to seeing you on the telly, have a good week lass, Kevin (not from Scotland ) x

[@markrant1460]

Good morning May I love your "Cheers me dears" it sounds super cheerful. Currently I am in Slovenia and there is so much here that reminds me of England. You would love it here. Hey what's this "old lady hands" comment, it just shows that you aren't a "princess" lol. OMG congrats on the tely show. wish I could see it. Your vlog this week was really informative and very well organized. NICE work girl!! Loved the music. Take care May until next week. Hey what about a detailed vlog on boat maintenance. Mark Alberta, Canada (Slovenia)

[@timdench2583]

Interesting vlog May. Certainly answered some questions I had. Super news on your various updates. Hope they paid you loads to be on the telly.

[@wellbeingonwater]

Haha no way! TV never pays!

[@richardbrown7153]

Afternoon May Bit late to the party, but What an great video, especially for anyone contemplating life afloat, maybe you should do a series of "intro to canal life" video's? I know there are a lot of similar ones out there, but (of the ones I've seen) they all paint a very rosey view of what it's like - you (IMHO) give a much more realistic view, but in a positive way if that makes sense! I shall be tuning in for your TV debut - I'll have to watch on catch up as my aerial didn't survive the recent high winds and repair people want £75 just to turn up! See you next time, and stay safe and happy.

[@christopherbutler7588]

Great video thanks 😊have a nice weekend 😀

[@lexheath8276]

Lovely scenery, and I could listen to you for hours!!!

[@brianodonnell7413]

I thought I recognised Aynho lock on there then you went past the pig place at Nell Bridge! You would have went past us making this we've been moored here for a almost a couple of weeks now and move again at the weekend :) Always wondered how a single boater could moor up so thanks for the vid :)

[@Andrea29987]

Stop with big splashes.... I thought you'd fallen in! I have you on whilstvim sewing and so sound is up so you're heard over the machine whirring! Heart rate skipped a beat too many times then! Looking forward to narrow escapes immensely!

Thank you so much 😁

[@markwilliamson9140]

Hello May hope you are well 🙌

[@PaulB-justme]

Channel 4 series set to record! 😃

[@windsurfingatmeerwijck]

Dear May I see you jump over Board and stop the Boat whit a Rope around your body. I did it that way whit my Boat. But if you put it in reverse for a few seconds and directly in Neutral the Boat stops by it selfs. Its much more easier and less heavy. Play whit it, Nothing can go wrong. And if you Lower your sPEed before you moore its even easier. Good luck. And still not buy a diesel heater.. It saves a lot of work whit your lumber.. But.. Your the Captain.

[@tompavoni9796]

How many miles are there that you can travel on cannal.?

[@czamman]

Can you drive at night? Are there hours of operation?

[@daveffs1935]

A very moorish episode 😁

[@gerardferry3958]

"i have done a fair bit of reverse parking in my time"

[@ppo2424]

A star is born ! What next, a book, a film?! Youre vlogs seem shorter, but i guess you have a lot going on these days. I would like to see how you moor when you cant get near the towpath?! Cheers.
