Does He Like My New Boat?

[@davidjones8680]

I don't think I've ever seen David looking so happy before. Suits you Sir.

[@carolinecaiger6717]

What a brilliant idea to get David back on the canals and get a much more interesting holiday bringing Foxglove back ❤ She's beautiful!

[@MouseToes]

OH I have been looking forward to the canal husband coming aboard!

[@for.tax.reasons]

David falling in love with the boat is so sweet to watch, and i love your relationship, its not just anyone you'd allow to sail your home away 😂 i hope we get to see more of both of you on the cut!

[@theonus_4483]

Haha David is such a legend. Love to listen to him, what a guy.

[@GeekGnome02]

If the lord of the locks himself gives your boat the nod of approval, that is a very good sign. I am so glad to see you enjoying your new boat.

[@Silkytoaster]

OMG - The Lord Of Locks !! That’s the best comment ever ❤😂- very apt .

[@GeekGnome02]

Lord of the Locks! Do we have to bow as he putters by?

No telling what excitement you and David could get into out on the canals. Beautiful boat for beautiful people!

[@nickgiles7568]

Amazed that David did not take things apart and start tinkering as he is want to do.Don't leave him alone in it for too long !

[@joline2730]

Nick: yes, he nearly dismantled the engine 😂😂‼️

[@remyllebeau77]

How dare you? He is a professional tinkerer. Haha

[@01cthompson]

David: Just make sure Lorna puts the first scratch in the paint before you even think of touching the tiller.

[@KennaGreen]

Thrilled to see David’s seal of approval. 😊

[@carycoombe3380]

Pimping out your boat to David... Emptying out the toilet and stocking up on cheese... Hilarious!

[@itsjustanidea]

Great video Lorna and great to see you smiling again.👍👍

[@DonLefFL]

"so I've emptied the toilet" 🤣 A sure sign company is coming.

[@leswallace2426]

I absolutely love these videos where canal people meet up - great bunch with great camaraderie.

[@nancyboston201]

I’d like to see David back narrow boating again too. That’s a great idea to share the trip. I look forward to seeing next weeks adventures.

[@johnedwards1685]

Two rather sweet and pleasant people in tiny but rather sweet boat.

[@mottmott5156]

Yeah we get to see David cruising the cut on a real boat! Looking forward to that. That was a really neat meet up. Thanks to you both made my Sunday morning coffee a real treat.

[@themetalgardener4960]

I watch both of your channels but the ones with both of you together are some of my favorites. When you both do one from the same trip I'll watch them back to back.

[@Dave-zj1zj]

Thank you, Lorna, for the ride along with David. You have a very beautiful boat. Congratulations

[@ajbarrett857]

Lorna, NB Foxglove is gorgeous (I'm so jealous)! Loved seeing you & David discussing her fine points. Looking forward to new adventures! 💗💗💗

[@smilysun8358]

Love seeing David’s face: apparently glowing in delight of the boat and being tickled by the color pink. Love you David!

[@annjarvis9300]

Great David loves your new boat and how kind of you to offer him to take a week aboard we are sure he will we are Ann n David the oldies watch you often tc now enjoy your lovely boat 🤗👍🌹

[@corriedeacon7842]

What a great solution not to worry about returning to mooring within 7 days. And you know the boat is safe. The watertank is much bigger than I though. Have lots of fun with Foxglove.

[@permaculturee]

I agree about the portholes.

[@beautifully_wonderfullymade]

Same, I think they let in a surprising amount of light and make the inside so cosy. The windows capture the outside world in a magical way. They also are very private, probably why it feels like a cosy cottage inside.

[@PeteEllson5656]

Love the pink theme. It's a boat that stands out because it's a beautiful color.

[@CherylSteele-rt8dj]

🎉🎉🎉😅 It's so exciting seeing the pink dreamboat at last Lorna. Lovely seeing David too, enjoying the new adventure with you. Thank you and happy travels. 😊

[@bongy36]

I love Foxglove, she’s a beaut! Canal husband is one lucky man to get his hands on her 😊

[@leedavies3629]

Nice one lass I think Dave was chuffed with ya boat and that a top idea let him take it 7 days out and you bring it bk happy days cheers Lorna have a Top week 🙂🦊👍✌️

[@72stutz]

My favorite narrowboat couple ❤❤❤

[@sailorcheri]

What a cute cute boat. Love it Lorna!

[@marjoriejohnson6535]

Just as soon as you said cheese, i knew it was David. Love your little boat.

[@jabbertwardy]

David will need a full pink kit when he pilots the boat 😂 But he looked genuinely thrilled about the boat when he sat down in the saloon. Can't wait to see more adventures aboard Foxglove!

[@timothywalker4563]

A balanced boat with maximum efficiency and if the weather turns, more room feel to wait out😊

[@Mr-x-683]

2:36 David was right 😅 this Christmas proves it 🎉

[@azcharlie2009]

You Brits are so cool! We Americans can learn a lot from your minimalist view points. Cheese sandwiches, and a few tomatoes... Simple is good sometimes. All the best!

[@DebbieAllred3]

Love David! I've watched his videos for years.

[@layalabi1667]

What a great video! The boat is amazing!! And...your deal with David is brilliant for both of you!!😊😊😊😊😊

[@stevehunter8473]

Thats a great plan to get David to move your boat to where you want to have your holiday, better holiday for you and a nice cheap holiday for David too, and knowing your boat is in Safe (ish...) hands. Looking forward to some cruising blogs from you both.

[@normanboyes4983]

It’s a nice wee craft and the portlights look fab and are effective at their primary purpose.😉👍

[@andrewbarnard667]

Excellent vlog. The first boat we looked at was 23.5ft and as much as i liked it the main bed was only 3ft wide. The extra 1.5ft makes all the difference.

[@JeghedderThomas]

Yes, as you say, it seems roomy and light, like a proper cottage, only modern and in deliciously light colours.

[@johngilman760]

How could David not love your boat! He always comments about how much he likes smaller narrowboats!

[@hallowther9735]

A wonderful solution for both you and David. His current boat is up on land needing some care and your’s allows him room and full facilities. His using it keeps things in continual check and he could bring it closer to your work , switch with you and head home while you cruised for a bit. ( if David did decide to look for a used copy, he can still be boating ) Lorna, you came up with a great idea. Also, I agree with David and you and others, the portholes were the better choice. Keep making it home Enjoy! All the best, Hal

[@sandbridgekid4121]

Square windows eat too much wall, and will radiate copious heat come winter.

[@TomTremayne]

Lorna, great video, can we have more of you & David. He's interesting even when not reading a script, you bring the best out in each other & it's just so watchable!

[@ExpressoMechanicTV]

A very pleasant little boat and equally pleasant occupants.

[@wendybrealey8368]

Love your two's rapport. Great idea to share a trip so you can enjoy boating further afield too (my hubby's negative comment when I was waxing lyrical about your gorgeous boat - that you're limited in how far you can go and over the same ground - just ignore him 😀). Unluckily we have no canals so it's a moot point 😁.

[@ESMarker]

Absolutely wonderful!! Welcome aboard David !!! Looking fotward to seeing you both out and about!! Sos whens the cruising beginning!!🤓❤❤❤

[@centauri61032]

What a lovely couple... 😘

Absolutely fabulous..too too fabulous to see you in your gorgeous pink canal boat. Wonderful to see you afloat after such a long time You deserve some loveliness. Now David is no longer in a canal boat naturally he must be your first staying guest... Love to see that vlog.😂 Lovely to see you in your proper home at last. Happy Cruising... Loads of bestest wishes And many many cheese sandwiches to you ML 😂😂

[@zapfanzapfan]

That was a very happy canal husband 🙂

[@orangecookie.]

OMG! I’m in tears - the whole episode was so sweet! 🌸🦊✨💯

[@dave64340]

64 gallons for water is great. Your boat is seems bigger inside than it looks . I think smaller boats are going to be the future. They make more sense.

[@gerardosullivan1642]

Very nice boat still a place to live good sailing.

[@renozirk3279]

Love seeing you and David, esp together!

[@lellymills]

Absolutely fab to see you two together again, Lorna! David seems smitten with Foxglove, and who wouldn't be? Enjoy! Hope to see some more videos with Canal Hubby and Wifey very soon! All the best to you both! XX

Lovely little boat. Very 50s atomic design.

[@raymaulder7383]

Brilliant video with David, thank you.

[@beautifully_wonderfullymade]

That was a lovely video, thanks for sharing.

[@maobfh]

I have been having the same thought, David, and I want to get me one of those!!! I have been looking at narrow boats for many years, and in that time I found one I loved but someone else did, as well. But I have NEVER been utterly charmed by a boat until I saw Lorna’s! I don’t believe I meet the UK residency requirements, however, and I want a liveaboard boat. The only navigable canals in the states are in the Great Lakes region and it gets cold on a level the UK doesn’t see. Brrrr! I tried, off the water, and chickened out in November and went south. Taking one to France is an option and would be delightful and I am thinking VERY SERIOUSLY. I have not found the boat builders online but won’t pull the trigger until Lorna has a chat with them about upgrades for commissions for those she sends to the builder. And I need to do more homework on requirements in France.

[@rogerbrown5558]

Haven't see you two together for a long time. Thanks Lorna for sharing. Not too many guests. I might sink.

[@Starboatbuilder]

Hi Great news - how about some details of the construction. I like it..The round windows is clever

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good see you out cut keep up the good vid and cranking it

[@fat_tommo_goes_boating]

You’re a genius!

[@1973Washu]

That is a nice boat, it turned out great.

[@steveowens398]

I see your plan now! Luring David back into narrowboating. Poor man! And so resistant to the idea! ;0) Looks like you could manage two boats in the same single-width lock too.

[@robertlalor8090]

Properly bijou. Great to see our David having a nose. Happy cruising.

[@dorothydotson7154]

Generally I don't care for portholes because they are often quite small but these are big and wouldn't tag my claustrophobia. Beautiful boat and worth the very long wait. Yes, David needs his little narrowboat!

[@for.tax.reasons]

The first thing he says is its very pink 😂 it IS the ultimate cute boat.

[@pidginmac]

What a lovely visit ❤

[@joecrachemontange4613]

Love your boat , Its fantastic.

[@Sim0nTrains]

The way it was described sounds like a Tardis, smaller on the outside but bigger on the inside and that offer was funny but enjoyable to see, great video Lorna

[@katelights]

I like that if you are cruising with guests they can sit at the dinette and chat while you are driving

[@vicmiller7191]

David, I am not sure that pink is your color but I can see you having one of this size. It is not my color choice but my Wife sure does love it. Looks good Kids. Take care and thanks for sharing.

[@dawnbearman]

I like the color and the interior space. About water. Ever thought of a small solar water from air machine ?

Lorna, do not let him persuade you to have a cruise through London, that cruise was scary enough with a bigger boat!😃

[@marvindebot3264]

She's a roomy gal for her size that's for sure. I love the portholes, I would have asked for a duck hatch, however.

[@freemanontheland24]

I love your channel 💗

[@pollenhead]

You read my mind. Before you even mentioned it I was thinking that you should let David take Foxglove out to get some canal water back in his veins. I look forward to the videos.

[@petitebiogeek]

Yes, please, more collaboration with the canal husband! Cheese sandwiches and tea as more bribes.
