Taking a gamble with our mooring | Living on a narrowboat full time - 214

[@beingauthentic1234]

Sadly bitter lemon suckers will always exist, but instead of being a drain you are both radiators. You radiate joy, happiness and kindness. I know it’s hard when it catches you off guard but try to protect your energy and focus on your lovely cruise and seeing the northern lights. We appreciate your energy and hard work, you bring so many people enjoyment 💜

[@MelG-ut3hs]

Well said!

[@jillthornton7216]

Just think how many people enjoy your vlogs and look forward to watching them every week , not everyone has the opportunity to travel and have the adventures you do and so it’s great to come along with you for the ride . You can’t please everyone so don’t worry about trying .❤️❤️

[@mrkgrav]

I get why some people think KZbin has made the canals busier BUT without the videos the canals wouldn't be busy which would mean they'd need more maintenance and the fees would probably be 2X+ what they are now, I'm happy more people are using them and showcasing them not just for us in the UK but for the rest of the world, keep going guys, ignore negative people

[@Minikisses20000]

I have to say, I love seeing you and the Bears traveling together. 🩷🩷

[@NicoleWinter-gp9ni]

Me too 😊

[@IzzieandCiara]

Wolverton was where me and Ciara moved all our stuff onto Lavender Lee, and so is quite special to us both. I'm so sorry they were mean Wes, makes me really sad- it always gets to me when someone makes a nasty comment! Really enjoyed this week's video, I found it very calming 💗💗 - Izzie x

[@rebeccareynolds9621]

Ignore people who aren't kind to you. I love watching you living the dream that we haven't been able to. Keep smiling sunshines ❤x

[@carlpegg3958]

When you get time fit a valve that allows you to switch over to a new bottle. Makes life a bit easier 😊

[@lacylobdell7455]

SUGGESTION: when putting away seasonal clothing, perhaps keep 1 outfit aside for the 1st days of changed weather. Also, you could drill holes in the bottom of that tire to allow the water to drain out easier. SO excited to see you both enjoying your lifestyle. Hugs from Louisiana!

[@ramblingadventures]

Oh and I can definitely sense a more relaxed pace on the vlogs since Wes left his job. It’s nice to have longer ones, thanks!

[@Rachellovescheese]

Aww, I’m sorry those horrible people gave you a downer Wes. Most people are lovely & would be thrilled to see you guys. I personally would run to the shop & come back with a big bag of snacks 😊 I loved seeing Doops in the field with the rainbow 🌈 ❤

[@carolinebutcher8160]

What a lovely cruise you had today with your favourite Bears. It looked absolutely gorgeous and the camera work was superb....Northern Lights 😮 Don't give any time to negative comments because it gives them credence, and they really aren't worth your worrying over. You are both such beautiful kind souls and your enthusiasm shines bright. That is what I love about you both. Xx

[@BoatTime]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@mazack00]

"Ned the Gardener" is a true gentleman!

[@janroberts1815]

Great vlog. Lovely to see Doops again Ignore what shallow people say, they need to get a life, probably jealous of your happiness in their dull life. Rise above them and be proud of who you both are

[@NicoleWinter-gp9ni]

Weirdly I missed this vlog when it came out and have only just seen it but I wanted to say that I love your vlogs and it’s people like you who bring some joy and interest to the canals. The canals wouldn’t survive without people on them. You two are fab. I love your down to earth approach and the inclusive, authentic and open attitude to life that comes across in your vlogs. 😊

[@MelG-ut3hs]

I am like you Wes very sensitive to what people say but please don't take those negative words to heart.You are both wonderful joyful positive people.Just forget these negative idiots.

[@claire0donovan117]

So happy you both have started the rest of your lives together ,at that beautiful canal .So special you will always hold it in your memory .Thank you for dropping in for a chat ☺️.As always stay safe .💚☘️🤗❤️☺️

[@rachelshonahague5718]

Never let negative people get you down Wes. It's called jealously.😉xxxx

[@joycebirrell2866]

Ignore the ignorant ones Wes, you’re doing great. Some people are never happy xx

[@fp30e]

Hello Amy, Wes, Rufus and Doops. We miss Doops. What a nice cruise you had. Shame about the negative attitude of the person who upset the flow of the day. Amazing that you saw the Northern Lights. Amy well done on changing the Gas bottle. All the best - Spoolbox

[@sallyannlidtka7290]

You two have made us all want to watch your vlogs so congrats and well done x

[@deballen6147]

Hey guys brilliant meeting you at Crick. Just catching up with the vlogs.. Horrible horrible people. F*** em don't let it dampen your spirits , you are such a lovely happy couple ❤️

[@bencooper6284]

That guy you met is a well known ranter. Don’t take it personally. He had a massive go at me once when I was single handing through cosgrove lock and asked him if he could shut the gate behind me.

[@anneholloway5896]

Thank you so so much for your time today and our photos I really really appreciate it xXx thank you both xXx💖💕xXx

[@jaybee8547]

Love your vlogs & it takes enormous courage to expose yourselves to criticism, so don't let the haters wear you down Wes. 🤗

[@shirleygreaves9650]

Take no notice you two are brilliant, aww Doops is back again.😍 love you both the man is just jealous of you. X

[@karenwallace9099]

Considering that real life is visible. Without any denials or omissions from you we are yet again given the gift of your journey in life. A journey that fills our eyes. Heart. And emotions with hope. Thank you for another wonderful video that used clips and music 🎶 excellently. Looking forward to your next.

[@raymondc5473]

The Aston Martin on the driveway probably belonged to the builder 👷‍♂️ 🤣 Lovely vlog as ever. Raymond in Casares.

[@philwinter2156]

[@bettyonaboat]

Aqueducts, the Northern Lights and amusing commentary - I loved this!

[@jackypengelly1613]

Sorry you had such a bad experience, some people are very obnoxious. We went to crick hoping to bump into you both- we met a lot of others but couldn't find you anywhere! Hope you enjoyed it as much as us. Love you guys! Keep up the great vlogs- say hi to The Bears for us. Finally- soz about Doops 😢xxx

[@juliebecker6049]

I think you are great! Don't let anyone stop who you are!!

[@annjarvis9300]

Glad you got the nice place in the end and hiw nice the bear help with the grass trim tc now the oldies 🤗🤗🤗🤗👍

[@davidtildsley8409]

Hi you two. Just watched this and I really feel that the horrible 1% you meet can cancel out all the wonderful amazing friendly folk you meet all the time!...which is ridiculous but that's how my mind works!. Great to meet you at Crick hope we didn't bother you to much when we just dropped on you!. Love Dave and Rachel NB HOLLY X

[@7obeone76]

We were fortunate enough to catch a few words with you today at Crick. You are are just as lovely in real life as you are in your videos. We forgot to send our love to Rufus, and also I apologise for my wife's insisting on you eating more vegetables.

[@01thefarm]

You 2 are just fabulous just ignore the bad vibes ❤❤❤❤

[@sarahpalmer8789]

Hello from Phoenix, Arizona :) I love your videos and have been catching up on them over the past few months! I've never been to the UK but your videos really show its beauty. The water of the canals and all the lovely nature is so incredibly soothing to me and I just love how genuine you both are. Wish you all a very happy and stress-free summer!

[@robertturner6241]

We all love you guys ❤

[@narrowboatersatlarge]

"Mellors, my bush needs trimming! See to it at once!" It was fantastic to catch the Northern Lights :) Misery Man probably missed it all. Farewell, Doops :( although she (?) had an amazing life with you guys.

[@Minikisses20000]

Hello to you both and of course Rufus. 🩷💙🐾🐾

[@Minikisses20000]

Aww, I know you are missing your Doops. I loved when you were reading to Rufus and Doops. RIP little bunny. Missing you💙💙

[@kimhutchinson1379]

That last bridge you went under was where we picked up an Adidas top!!!! Got to Cosgrove servces and went down the weedhatch, Paul passed it to me and I fell down a hole !!!!

[@gailpz4764]

Love you guys ! X

[@KevinMarshall-o9u]

We love your vlogs, saw you yesterday at Crick would have said hello but you were chatting to Pete and Caroline and didn't want to be rude 👍

[@FredHarris-x9i]

I just like you two! Fun to watch ! We are moving next weekend onto our own narrowboat We are very excited. See you on the journeys

[@newlifegratitudeherenow]

Do not take anything personally, it is his problem and nothing to do with you! Allow it to wash over you and just carry on…and that way there is no ‘confrontation’, resistance or any other negative emotion or feeling…😌🙏😍 what is left is the authentic happy you, just keep shining your light, your energy and joy…no need to be reactive, just keep smiling at everyone regardless of how they are ❤

[@graemeoliver179]

Hi wes and amy i work in wolverton where you went passed that train mural i saw you come past

[@Pamelasue414]

You guys are such a delightful couple! You’re so lucky to have found each other 🤗x

[@mariebenoit2029]

Totally ! Many would get benefits to watch them behave and care of the loved one. Very peaceful and joyful to watch ❤

[@tonywest7236]

Seen you at crick this morning, wanted to say hello but you were deep in conversation with someone. Ignore negative people x

[@letsbefrank6269]

I saw you at the Cricket Boat show, via another vloggers, you can’t hide anything from me! 😊

[@alanandammakingnewmemories2950]

great vlog guys and congrats on retiring the lights were here in oz as well

[@suenicholls5446]

💕😀xx Hi both, found you via channel 4 narrow escapes. Looking forward to watching your vlogs. 🥰

[@irenefitt9108]

What a sad life some people lead 🙄 It’s great watching you both on your continual adventure and sharing it together and with all of us Almost feel We are with you there. It’s also great that we get to see different parts of the country . I like trying to guess where you are 😊

[@melhorler45]

Lovely

[@Walen10n]

I just was in Milton Keynes and watched the narrowboats in the marina there! Now we are in Crick on The Crick Boat Show, hope to see you there! ❤

[@bluedeva]

I think G G may need some ex golf buggy tyres to save your paintwork when mooring, at least they are not too big to take up valuable space in your roof lockers but handy to have if needed. It’s so lovely seeing you and some of the other KZbin boaters on Narrow escapes. I feel Wes’s pain with not ready to do the winter clothing swap I’ve been putting it off too 😂🤣 wishing you both and of course the lovely bears a nice bank holiday wknd 🤗PS ignore the negative nellies and just keep being you 🤗

[@bobbing_along]

Absolutely love it round Wolverton and Cosgrove! Hope Bubbles lived up to our hype 😅 Sorry that miserable man was horrible to you. I expect you're very over it now, but that's so unpleasant and upsetting x x

[@Minikisses20000]

We had the Northern lights on the 11 when i was working to Chicago in Colorado. It was amazing to see.

[@margaretwilliams3504]

Yes, I am on the K&A and I am laughing. Brilliant vid., guys. You are clever.

[@SheilABeer-x8q]

You will both be fine. I've got faith you both and your you tube channel will flourish ❤😊

[@BrandiHerrera-y1l]

I LOLed for real at the... call them sweatpants for nothing joke.

[@artfulcodger]

When they’ve expressed their opinion, just say “There We Are Then..” - You know what it abbreviates to, and you’ve just called them that in a totally non-confrontational way! Don’t let them get to you, focus on the 15,000 who DO want to see your videos!

[@Michael-ln7us]

Exactly 😊

[@krisatomic]

Hope you guys enjoyed Cosgrove, it’s so pretty, I really loved our time there. The internet absolutely DIES once you go up the next lock so you were right to stop when you did. Not Robbie Cumming’s number 1 fan lmaooo. What a miserable [redacted].

[@keithweybury5212]

Great vlog guys

Ignore the haters - we love ya 😊

[@claireswain9748]

Our gas goes when we cook chips! Every time, it's a joke😅

[@dwill4948]

Ignore big mouthed Towpath Twits. There's always some bloke who thinks he has more right to the waterways than anyone else. Keep doing what you do. Your videos are always a delight.

[@marianneeckertjensen4723]

A beautiful cruise 😍

[@CGremillion]

I'm curious about all the NC State and UNC shirts that Wes wears regularly. I'm originally from North Carolina but havne't heard Wes talk about whether he'd spent time there.

[@MrDiscoseeker]

Love ya xxx

[@rebeccawilkes7919]

You are stars ❤ silly person 😢 brilliant vlog Amy once again xxx rebecca nb it'll do and Bonnie dog 😊

[@jillipepper5353]

Aw, poor Doops😢. All three nights the Northern lights were supposed to be visible here…..we were clouded in and couldn’t see anything even though we live rural and I tried with my phone it didn’t matter. I have seen them with my naked eye twice in my life though, on very cold crisp winter nights. 👍🏼🙋🏼‍♀️

[@TinaMatheny-o9m]

Really enjoyed the music

[@MoonRadio1]

Great video

[@lancecullen77]

May I ask what the temperature would be when Wes said his legs are sweating in his sweatpants? I'll hazard a guess it was about 23°C. Just FYI for me in 🇦🇺 23C is too cold for swimming and I typically wear long trousers or jeans at that temp or below.

[@louisecrane1072]

There's always one Wes and Amy you show much more ❤in you flogs than listening to that nob and his hate don't let it burst your bubble ❤❤xxx

[@NormanTyrer]

Everybody's opinions will always differ. You've got to learn to chill 😎 Enjoy life and be content in yourselves ❤🙏

[@larryalbert1027]

If you put one or two holes in the bottom of the tire it will drain faster

[@matthewwoodward2738]

Can’t u get an automatic change over valve? Would save a lot of hassle ❤

[@veronicashipley9123]

Wes, please wear a hat in the strong sun! And sun prot3ction of yiu dont already🤔. Especially with no hair. My husband got skin cancer on his head and face from many years of working outside when he was building. Also Lidle oat milk is very good. Sending love & light ☺ xx

[@markvear4284]

Chin up don't let anyone rain on your parade....I never usually comment but these sad people cheese (vegan of course) me off. As my dad once said if you've got nothing nice to say....say nothing ! For what it's worth your brilliant and I always look forward to your next vlog....Keep up the good work :)

[@ruaidhrikathygill8833]

Righty tighty, lefty loosey! Unless it is reversed in the UK 🤷. Ned the gardener!! Love that you are back cruising with The Bears Aboard. Nice mooring spot!! Don’t let miserable people bring you down. Yeah Northern Lights!!!!! 😊🤗 Kathy

[@pilpelet100]

Another great video. Thanks. Ignore miserable grumblers. Don't let them get you down. I have a little criticism - not to do with the vlogs or your lifestyle - but please, for your own sanity, don't have food or drink next to your computer/keyboard! It's a recipe for disaster!🥺🥺😉😉

[@Jacqueline-es5yb]

I love the way that when you get quality graffiti you don't get other people 'tagging' them to spoil them, there is a level (at least amongst) graffitiests (if there is such a word!!) of respect for the work. I love that one.

@@LeeMcilwaine Oh, on ours it is. That’s wonky :)

[@christinemcintosh1450]

I got told off at the Weeden Bec laundry. It really upset me. Some people don't realize that one little thing can really put you on edge. It wasn't even my fault. Oh well I just had to remind myself that everyone else had been so mice and friendly. So it was a him problem not a me problem.

[@TheDibbster]

Having thoroughly enjoyed your vlogs for over a year now, I have a question. Why do you travel everywhere with the bears, and what’s their story? Are they relatives? Also as everyone says, don’t give the silly hater any more of your time, he is very clearly jealous!! What you two have is so special and it’s a genuine pleasure to be able to share your adventures with you. Thank you 😊 Keep up the great work guys! xxx

[@8mmwirecutter]

Your editing is good but you are going to get a bad back it might be better to link a TV either with a usb or an hdmi cable just to help. Keep up the good work. G & A
