It Could Be FAR WORSE! Our NARROWBOAT WINTER On The LLANGOLLEN CANAL Pt 9 Ep 58

[@joanneowen4540]

I have been watching the news of the big flooding all over England,and my heart breaks for everyone suffering,and I worry about you and all the lovely Narrowboaters I have learned about since watching you..dearly hope all are safe and the waterways remain safe and recover comes soon for the villages affected.Thank you for sharing the beautiful trips you take.Love from Canada

[@onedaymoreaboard]

The wind and rain has been truly awful this year, and so many sad stories of people losing their boats and homes to flood waters. Thankfully our boat has been safe in a little marina while we have been traveling the country catching up with family over the last few weeks. We’ve had road closures due to flooding and had to take detours, but at least our home is safe. Thanks for thinking of us and we are glad you are enjoying the videos 😊

[@NotMolly-jf2rh]

😄 Hamish has the cutest walk. Lol

[@onedaymoreaboard]

He does that little bum wiggle doesn’t he 😂

[@Setinmywaysalways]

Great to watch the Scenery in parts of the Country not yet travelled.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Glad you enjoyed it! We are doing the same, watching vlogs of the areas we are planning to travel this year 😊

[@julietwigg4414]

You could make a wonderful calendar with all the love photos of the dogs throughout the season

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Now there’s an idea for next year! Thanks for watching 😊

[@robertknight5435]

Another great vlog, we noticed you have a westie tiller pin, and having westies was wondering where you got it from. Like you we came over from the States 5 years ago to live on a narrow boat and shipped our two westies with us. Logan was 9 and Finley was 2. Again like you we lost logan last year whilst on the Weaver. keep the vlogs coming and hope to meet sometime along the waterways of Britain.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Such a similar story! Where we you in the States? Sorry to hear about you poor boy Logan. It’s so hard to lose them isn’t it. This is where we got ‘Dave’ the westie tiller pin from dracocrafts.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=316. They have lots of different designs in stock but will also source something particular if you ask them I think! Thanks for watching 😊

[@robertknight5435]

We lived in Louisiana, my wife was born in Arabi Louisiana. I was a deputy sheriff in Lafourche parish, i moved over 20 years ago. we did have a boat in Florida were we spent log weekends out in the gulf and on crab Island . Your right loosing Logan has left a big hole in our lives.@@onedaymoreaboard

[@mwm1960]

One day more we enjoy your travels.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

So lovely to hear that 😊

[@susanhill9166]

Beautiful countryside ❤

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@1beakin]

You have no idea just how much I have enjoyed watching your Vlogs from beginning to end and then back again during this time of recovery from my accident just before Christmas. Thank you.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

That’s so wonderful to hear Bette. We are glad we can be a little help with your recovery. Hoping you are still on track to be back to 100% very soon 😊

[@philipizzard2584]

Wow that roast pork looked beautiful so nicely cooked hope it was 👍 nice,I liked the prees branch was so pretty.thanks again ❤❤❤

[@onedaymoreaboard]

The Prees branch was so perfectly quiet! And the cafe in the marina just a short walk away was a great treat too! I have to say Pete’s roasts are the best. I’m very lucky 😊

[@mindless-confusion]

Loving your vlogs and loving the displays of Westietude!

[@onedaymoreaboard]

So much westietude for sure! It’s so funny editing and seeing it over and over! Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@lesleym6952]

Watching this vlog when I was hungry was not a good idea! That roast looked lush 😋🤤🤤🤤 Is it your son’s song at the end? Such a wonderful tune, I love it! 🥰

[@onedaymoreaboard]

It was a wonderful roast. Pete’s definitely got it mastered, even in a small space with a small oven that he moans constantly about! It’s not Alex’s song, but it’s definitely his style. It’s ’Time On Our Side’ by Ten Towers 😊

[@1twilight9]

Very nice and relaxing. Loved the camera work and no doubt a lot of editing work was had. Well done folks and Dogs. A narrow boat would suite my little Jack Russel and myself perfectly. Thanks

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your lovely praise. It means a lot! We can highly recommend this way of life for you and your little friend. Hamish and Poppy will tell you that boat dog life is the best life! 😊

[@geneboyd523]

Love the pups

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Thank you! They are living their best lives as boat dogs 😊

[@Debba521]

As you said, what a place to be trapped. So lovely along that canal! But the great revelation was Pete cooking! Does he do it all, or just the Sunday roast? I guess I shouldn't be surprised. A lot of men can cook, some are great chefs. So if Pete does the cooking, no doubt Caroline does a great job putting the videos together! 😊

[@onedaymoreaboard]

As I said, it could have been far worse! We were so lucky to be ‘trapped’ on such a gorgeous stretch of canal. Pete loves to cook and I would say we share the cooking about half and half. He has his specialities that he loves to cook, and our friends love him to cook for them, especially Sunday roasts, risotto and sticky toffee pudding! I count myself very lucky 😊

[@andyfalk1428]

So good to see some good old fashion cooking done on the boat. Hope it was a wonderful meal. Love your vlog, so peaceful and unpretentious. From a fan in Victoria Falls.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

What a lovely comment to wake up to! Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@alexrudd1171]

Lovely video! I think I recognise those dogs! 😂

[@onedaymoreaboard]

They miss you ❤️

[@tompinnef6331]

Thank you for this lovely video. Always excited to see another video up. Just got home from grocery shopping. Getting ready for a major snow storm. The NWS calling for any where from 7 to 14 inches of snow. Plus winds of 40 mph or more. Seems we are right in the middle of the possible path of the storm. Starts Monday night till early Wednesday morning. So made sure we did the normal ' bread - milk' run. Plus got fuel for the snow blower. Cannot wait to use the blower. Started up on the first pull and is ready to go. Then like after all storms. Going to be a bitter cold snap after the snow. Highs one day high forecasted to be 10 F and low of -4 F. Take care and be safe. Spinner

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Hey Spinner! Sophie told us about the expected snow storm coming to your area and she’s expecting to be working from home tomorrow if what they have promised arrives! Your temperatures for next week are crazy cold but we know you are far more used to it and more prepared than us Brits would be. We complain when it gets just below freezing 😂

[@tompinnef6331]

@@onedaymoreaboard Well my 14 hp snow blower is ready for duty. But Sat / Sunday looks brutal. 17 / -3 F and 8 / -9 F. Then way better then 2009 record low -29 F with wind chills of -45F. I'll update you next video after we get though this. LOL. Should have seen us fighting fires in that weather. Was a fun time.... (not really) God Bless - take care.

[@christineprice5463]

Lovely video! Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@themacs1974]

Watching this series brought back lovely memories of our hire boat trip from Whixhall Marina to Llangollen. Thank you. Next up, Warwickshire Ring! Which company built your boat-appears to be a true quality build.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Our pleasure! We are glad we could bring back some lovely memories for you! We recently cruised through Warwick and had a lovely stay on the Saltisford Arm after we came down the tough Hatton Locks! Our boat was built by Russell Narrowboats. The did a wonderful job from afar as we were living in Texas at the time. Here's the story of the build if you haven't see it yet kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJDIYamKbteYp5Ysi=dVgDuVKR944TVXnW 😊

[@lionelmarytravels6003]

Good morning both of you. I love the monochrome sequences you slip in occasionally and the one of the two dogs was perfect. Petes roast dinner looked great. How I love crackling!.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Oh we are big crackling lovers too! Pete’s favourite pub snacks are pork scratchings and he’s quite the king of the Sunday roast! Glad you enjoyed the video 😊

[@gingermolinero8386]

Hamish and Poppy are adorable please give them pet pets for me

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Thanks so much Ginger! They love their boat dog life! 😊

[@EdSmith-wb6lx]

Thanks for taking us along the Llangollen it is one special place to be trapped on, beautiful scenery all around, Looking forward to your next vlog Stay safe and well. Ed 40 S of Vegas

[@onedaymoreaboard]

It certainly is! I’m just editing the next video now, with a hint of sadness, as it’s when we say goodbye to the Llangollen and our wonderful winter. Thanks for watching 😊

[@jamesfrankie]

A beautiful vlog.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@mishkawp8200]

Absolutely gorgeous photography again. I particularly love the black and white ones of the dogs. It certainly looked like a beautiful place to be marooned last winter - I’m not sure it would be as attractive this winter in the mud and pouring rain!! Hope you’re safe from the floods xx

[@onedaymoreaboard]

We have had so much wind and rain this year it’s been crazy! We have always said that freezing temperatures with ice and snow are far preferable to rain as it freezes the muddy towpaths, making for much cleaner dogs and boat! The Llangollen is such a beautiful place to be trapped 😊

[@kevinfriday5528]

The video quality is fantastic! Thank you both for sharing this,

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Our pleasure Kevin! It’s so lovely to read comments like yours 😊

[@1beakin]

Stay safe and warm take care of those little puppies

[@onedaymoreaboard]

They are all snuggled up as usual Bette 😊

[@nicholassimpson5646]

Great vlog guysnice views I like to be trapped there so nice nice to see the dogs having fun I remember that vlog when he would not come back just like a naughty child that dinner looked so nice to die for as they say hope you are safe after all this rain I know you are a year behind so I hope you are away from floods guys have a great week big hugs for the dogs

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! Our boat has been safe in a marina while we’ve taken some time away to catch up with family all over the country. The floods have been terrible in some places! We will always remember Jasper ignoring his Dad at that Bettisfield water point! One of our favourite photos that really shows the character of our stubborn old boy! I’m lucky that Pete is such a good chef, and loves to cook! 😊

[@1258-Eckhart]

Poppy is such a delight galloping up those steps. Also delightful was that wonderful sunset from the Prees Branch. I live in the middle of the city, so yours are the only sunsets I get to see! I suspect that the pontoon was there to enable the brickies to repoint the brickwork, which is both an abutment and a retaining wall.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

I think you are right about the brick work on the bridge. Poppy was so funny charging up those steps! She certainly has a very big character for such a little dog. It’s funny when I’m editing and she catches sight of herself, or hears us calling her or telling her to fetch her ball! We’ve certainly seen some stunning sunrises and sunsets in our time aboard, and every now again, when I perhaps miss the convenience of a house, the view the next morning shakes me out of it! 😊

[@jennyyipcy]

HNY to you all and Hamish & Poppy. Hope you're staying safe from the flooding. It is so lovely to see you have re-planted your flowering pots. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful vlogs 😊

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Happy new year! Thankfully our boat has been safely tucked up in a little marina while we have been traveling the country to spend time with family. We’ve been held up by flooded roads and had to take detours, but at least our boat was safe. We’ve had so much wind and rain 🌧️ 😳

[@trevorsbarkingmadchannel4501]

Stunning vlog and cruise as always. Doglets just too cute. Playing and watching tele omg. Cuteness overload. And your roast wow looked delicious ! Certainly dangling that carrot and selling the lifestyle. Sooooo tempting. Best wishes.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Glad you enjoyed it Trevor! Poppy was so funny when I was editing this video, cocking her head and listening to Pete calling to her about her ball!! Pete certainly is the king of the Sunday roast. I count myself very lucky! 😊

[@bryansnapp7364]

Pete & Caroline, thank you for the beautiful content. Have a wonderful new year. All the best from our family to yours ! God bless from Ohio, USA.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Happy new year to you too! We are so glad we can bring you a little of the beauty of the UK canals to OH 😊

[@sandihandi7831]

I love parsnips with a roast. Unfortunately it's hard to get them in Northern US i winter. Travel safe folks. Stay warm. Think spring!

[@onedaymoreaboard]

We remember the search for parsnips when we were in Texas, and then finding them at an exorbitant price! At Christmas, a lot of the grocery stores put their basic vegetables down to crazy low prices, and we were so excited to see a bag of parsnips for 15p (about 20c) 😂. Looking forward to spring even more this year after the crazy wind and rain we’ve been having 😊

[@dorothydotson7154]

Hope you are keeping warm and dry! BTW, love the aerial views. ❤

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Pete’s getting more confident with the drone now and love choosing the music to go with his footage. Our boat has been tucked up in a small marina while we’ve been traveling to see family over the last few weeks, and thankfully it’s all safe apart from a little leak in the chimney 😊

[@jillchew-tetlaw3388]

Sunday roast looked good, hope you enjoyed it.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Pete is the master of the Sunday roast! It was lovely thanks. And we just enjoyed another one today! Thanks for watching 😊

[@1beakin]

Thanks!

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Thank you so much for your support of our channel Bette! So appreciated and we will be put it towards improving our audio equipment 😊

[@karendwyer5841]

Another lovely vlog, hope you guys had a lovely Christmas & new year, look forward to following you through 2024 Super big hugs for the stars of the show 'Hamish & Poppy' ❤🐕😍😍🐕🐕🐕😍

[@onedaymoreaboard]

They really are the stars aren’t they! Such a pair of characters living their best life as boat dogs! Wishing you a happy and healthy 2024 and thanks for watching 😊

[@cotcottage2788]

Great vlog again and Happy New year to you both hope your wintering well catch up soon David and Ruth

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Happy new year to you too! We’ve had our boat in a little marina while we have been traveling the country spending time with family but can’t wait to get back to new adventures for 2024. Still no definite plans yet, we need to pore over the maps some more! Do you have any definite plans yet? 😊

[@paulturner7837]

Hi guys, I’m new to the channel. Really enjoyed the vlog.The dogs are lovely, they seem to enjoy the life of a boat dog 👍. It looks like Winter is a good time to do the Llangollen canal. The waters a bit deeper and hardly any boat traffic. That roast looked great, have a lovely week. Hope the stoppages finish on time for you.

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Welcome aboard Paul! We are glad you found us. Hamish and Poppy love their boat dog life as you can see! Winter is definitely a perfect time to experience the Llangollen canal as we’ve heard the summer can be so busy. We are already thinking of returning there next winter as we loved it so much and still feel there is a lot we missed 😊

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi guys, wow what another wonderful video wonderful countryside. I’ve never been to England, but I would like to think one day I will get there my brother did the DNA test and apparently where are 68% English I have a friend of mine who was born in England he did these DNA test and there’s only 3% so I calling the non-pommy. Anyway, keep up the good work. Looking forward to more videos in 2024 Cliff from Logan City, Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺👨🏻‍🦽

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Thanks so much! It would be interesting to do one of those tests and see how it came out for us! Perhaps we are really from your neck of the woods 😂😊

We always thought we were half Irish, because of our hyphenated name, but obviously not, it was only 7% Irish

[@steveempidogreynolds4413]

We were trapped in Days Lock on the River Thames in the floods for 14 days in 2018 , we had to wheelbarrow across the fields to Dorchester to the supermarket....

[@onedaymoreaboard]

Wow that’s proper trapped! What time of year was that? Hope you were ok. We have this worry about being on rivers in the winter because of the flood potential. Being frozen in on a canal seems far more preferable if we had to choose one, and we were lucky we were right by facilities and a Tescos when we were frozen in! 😊
