May on the Move! Cropredy to Claydon | South Oxford Canal

[@guy.h]

It was lovely seeing Claydon Top Lock again. My Uncle moved in there when it was almost derelict and did a lot of work making it habitable and generally sorting it out. He tragically died before finishing, but his partner carried on. He was very happy living & working there. The cottage has a huge forge inside the kitchen/living room as it used to be the canal's blacksmith. The other buildings have stables, workshop and allsorts there.

After watching a few years of narrowboat vlogs, I will make it a plan when i retire in 2 years to rent a boat every sommer. Thanks for the video and happy cruising May. ⛵😀👍

[@vynleshmynle7372]

Why wait? Get your tickets you could own May’s first ship

[@teaeff8898]

I always enjoy your videos. 😃 I’ve got at least 30 years on you but you keep singing songs I like, lol. 😆

[@clivebuckland6902]

Another Great Vlog May. Seemed like a relatively peaceful trip. Hearing the birds singing in the background and seeing your boat on the water in such beautiful natural environment, gives you a really good feeling. Loved the lock and boat manoeuvring, mooring etc training, passing on your experience Thank You for Sharing

Beautiful video May 👍🏼🍄🌻🌹

This women looks like a central caricature in a Jane Austen novel...if she wakes up lonely it's by design not circumstance!!!.❤️🇬🇧

[@wellbeingonwater]

Oh yes, by design always! Thank you for watching !!

[@Davidm1fcf]

Cropredy to Claydon! Brings back great memories of childhood holidays along the Oxford Canal.

[@vynleshmynle7372]

May, loving your stuff, great combo of life and fun. Your friend is fantastic. I would however ( Always a however ) you’re great 🙁

[@MichaelJemson-nv5zo]

Enjoyed this weeks visit may . look forward to next weeks edition stay safe and happy cruising 😊

[@TheLampini]

So nice to see young folks on the cut ❤😊

[@markrant1460]

Hey May, I appreciate what you were saying about getting sun burnt. Some 55 years ago my back got burnt to the point of blisters. To this day I still can't stand hot water on my back. By the way get into the habit of wearing that cool hat so that you keep the sun off the back of your neck otherwise you could experience sun stroke. When you do find a new owner for your "boat with no name", give some thought to having a good bye party and include "boat with no name". You might find the grief of leaving her a bit easier. You might also want to revisit Kublar-Ross and her work around grief. See you next week Mark Alberta, Canada

[@paulstuart100]

absolutly love your videos

[@tjhouston5201]

Lovin' this video. Great choice of soundtrack btw.

[@vynleshmynle7372]

Thanks!

[@wellbeingonwater]

Wow, thank you so much hugs

[@paulgoodwin1201]

Hi may. Live on the cut for 36 years, then moved to Cornwall. We live in a lovely place but miss the boat life so much. Are you planning to come back to the cut. If any body is thinking ov taking the plunge just do it. Many thanks. Paul

[@oldmanhuppiedos]

Hi May, Another nice vlog, enjoying a day in the life on the channel with nice people. Summer is not really summer yet with sometimes a beautiful sunny day.

[@Ipuu1]

04:30 Is it okay to put tap water in coolant? Ideally, this would be distilled water. You can also use bottled water or tap water. Bear in mind that tap water or bore water contains minerals that can leave deposits throughout your cooling system, contributing to corrosion which will reduce the lifespan of the radiator and other components in the cooling system

[@vetworker]

What a lovely video. You have such a calming energy about you. 🙂🙂🙂

[@gilleslacroix4255]

Hi May …i think you should do a boat maintenance video for the future lucky owner…keep it up love this chanel !

[@julie9242]

Hello May, Great watch has normal. Don't forget to rest when you can. Take Care X🐰x

[@mayhemmayo]

THANK YOU MAY. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

[@shirleygreaves9650]

Lovely vlog, thanks for taking us along. X

[@sailingheretic]

The paint job looks great May! FYI…I think WhiteSpotPirate may be looking for a change of pace and considering a narrowboat. That black epaulette jacket of yours makes you look a bit like a naval commander. 😀🇬🇧😀. Wow, those kayakers are really moving! No worries May…my boat almost ended up in the middle of the lake because I left it in reverse gear when docking.

[@mothmagic1]

You and that boat have had some adventures and made some memories. Of course you got sunburnt as a child, we cared nothing about things like that as children. Being fair of hair and complxion you burn more easily than many of us. Like all your "May on the move" type videos this was very relaxing

[@maidbloke]

Another beautiful vlog. So relaxing. 😍

[@philld2576]

Looks really nice and tranquil 🙏

[@tangs167]

I recognise that mooring spot 🙂 Hope you've stayed cool the last few days? Have a good week young un.

[@19Loretta69]

Lovely video as always.

[@vynleshmynle7372]

Got my tickets May, might get a few more before all is said and done

[@Rex-c5t]

when hammering in the metal spikes they must be at an angle facing away from the water!!

[@nikkibell4121]

I have just found you on here with your raffle - I live in Banbury and I work on Forge Farm Clattercote wharf where I work ! It's an organic pumpkin farm !

[@wellbeingonwater]

Ah yes I know it!

[@KelvinStirling]

hello spider.. great vlog again. i really must take up yoga. 😊❤

[@barbohanley3882]

Great vlog ❣️🇨🇦

[@RobinPalmerTV]

Motion is lotion for mind body and soul in life and narrow boating.

[@vynleshmynle7372]

May. Great i

[@vynleshmynle7372]

Nice job May, no F’ing around at 23:12

[@ronnyskaar3737]

Love your videos. You are good at filmmaking. I just think... If you got the sound a bit better it would be flawless. Cheers. I'm talking wind-noise and low frequency rumble. Try a high pass filter.

[@Martyn2021]

Moving along heading towards a new adventure making memories along the way, that will last a lifetime. To borrow from John Lennon - Every day in every way its getting better and better

[@ThomasFarnell]

I have tried to bye a ticket for some weeks now bab but I don't now want I am doing rough but I would love to get a few 😢

[@mikereynolds6837]

Same here

[@mojobumbles474]

Whats the plans May, will you go for another boat?

[@eon498]

❤🎉

[@debraamos3028]

What are you going to do with your car when you move onto new canals

[@dennislowe7316]

Love the video as always May, although you seem to be getting a tummy on you,😂🤣😂

[@robgould2234]

Ì love you ❤xx from robert

[@mikesmart390]

Tried to buy raffle ticket unsuccessful don't want to join faceacke and failed on password

[@jonahjones89]

May, I am just wondering, as I watch how you open the locks with your bum! Do canal boaters have Canal Boaters bum, like tennis players get Tennis elbow 🤣

[@johnslavin2270]

I hope you get an electric motor in your new boat. Your video has a scene where you are breathing in shimmering diesel fumes and that just ain't good right?

[@christiandedome2764]

And yet some people still there is no God now maybe they will they will Stop and pay attention ❤
