@TheNomadicCrobot From an older punk to one getting older, your music is certainly raw enough to tick all the boxes. I would definitely spill all my beer jumping around to it 😁🍻. Cheers.

I have subbed to quite a lot of narrowboat channels, but really only view 4 or 5 regularly and Crobot is top of the list - thank you for, well everything you've vlogged really. Nice to see bits of my home region from the water ways. Cheers Simon (of Suffolk).

Sweet Jesus, Mother Mary, Mother of God and all the saints in Heaven can, will you guys ever catch a break!! Love your song Forever Days, your singing reminds me of Joe Strummed, one of my favourites. Your voice has that wonderful 1970’s angry punk hint to it that drew me in to loving and performing that style of music.

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

we are cursed 😂😂😂 at least it hopefully makes for fun viewing 😂😅 Thanks for enjoying the song, I love Joe strummer, one of the greatest to ever do it, so has probably been a big inspiration 😊

Great Song Guys 😊xx

Since Chris is so bad at forgetting the key, why don’t you add an Apple AirTag keychain to your keys, so if you leave them behind; by accident of course lol, you get a notification that it was left behind, especially if you drop it it’ll lead you right to where the key is. It sound a lot cheaper $ easier than relying on Chris’s memory 😂 Love you guys, keep it up!! 🎉❤

Godmanchester 1:34 - you moored against the entrance to the original lock! New one originally manual at the guillotine end…. Called it the "hangover cure” because after 308 winds to raise it, you’d be sober (briefly) ! 20:06 - my favourite mooring place: skinny-dipped in Dec when based in Buckden prior to lift-out… talk about Walnut Whips..

I love forever days mate 💜 when that first chorus hit, it litrally gave me goosebumps. And the ending is EPIC!!!. You need to make a few more! Like Benny for Ben and Emily and just have your own music in the videos. Long time fan of the channel and was shocked when I seen you in a kevin Talbot video a fair few months ago

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

What a lovely comment 😊 thank you, iv got so much music iv made but for some weird reason like to keep the 2 worlds apart..but I think I might start to merge them a bit more after the lovely response. Yeah kev is my older brother..he told me to start a youtube channel so that's where the idea came from originally

[@fp30e]

Hello Becca, Chris, I like the way Chris was explaining everthing today. That must have been a strong underwater current as Becca was struggling to keep control of the boat. Good choice of music as you put up the canopy. I like your large stick thing. Are you able to be undercover with the large stick thing in place? “Weed Hatched!!!! Did Beccca find any vegetation wrapped around the prop thingy? Nice bit of mooring coming up to the lock Becca. Excellent banter throughout the Vlog. It was a shame the tree was still blocking the lock to your home mooring. Excellent Punk Song by Chris. Great to hear the dramatic music (thank you). Excellent editing as always. Can I also praise Chris for the fantastic artwork that goes with the title of every episode. So well done. Very impressive. Thank you for a most entertaining Vlog as always. Take Care. Spoolbox.

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

Thank you so much for tuning in again, it's been quite the adventure, It was a really strong current.Becca done so well controlling the boat. Yes when the large stick is on she can stand inside the canopy, the weed hatch was actually free of any vegetation for once. we had known of the tree but where preying it would have been moved by the time we reached it. Thank you for all your lovely words it really makes it all worth it 😊 so kind

Thank you so much 😊

[@PaulUnderwood345]

@9:09 Jeez Chris. It's dodgy enough jumping from the side of the boat whilst it's still in motion & not properly alongside. But jump of the front like this, get it wrong and fall into the path of your boat, you'll either be slowly and categorically crushed to death by 20 tons at 3mph, or trapped underneath the bow and drowned, or a bit of both! Either way, it'll certainly take some of the fun out of the day.

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

I never even thought of that, what a dangerous move.

[@Elaine-y4i]

I think next year you should go out in every weekend build your experience and confidence up 😊

[@blinzohagen]

Easy solution guys - We use a thin bungee rope attached to the keys and hang it around our neck. We never part with the key. Lock the cabinet if necessary & return to it later. Hope that’s helpful (but it may make your videos less crazy)

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

now thats a cracking idea

[@John-s3t6q]

Well She will know and you hope you know just wear the key is each time . When you have to use it .

[@markrant1460]

Dear Chris and Bex Chris how about you buy Bex, for Christmas, a hinged tiller arm. You should be able to get one at the local chandler. It would mean only one tiller arm instead of two. I think that there is a special song for you two. It is by Mark Lindsay and is titled Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head. Uncle Google should be able to find the words for you. Cyber hugs for you both, Mark Alberta, Canada

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

Thanks Mark, woaw that tiller sounds like an awesome idea, I didnt even realise you could get them, yes boat life seams to ha e it's wicked way with us,maybe it wasent the best time of year to try and do a cruise 😅😅 thanks for the love and support We really do appreciate it

Thor to the rescue driving in the mooring stakes. the turkey burgers didn't get a mention. do you have a split charge system for your leisure batteries

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

Iv just asked Bex and we are not actually too sure about the split charge, Thor on the mooring stakes 😂😂 and the turkey burgers will make a return...I promise 😂

[@ChrisCastle-yq7rb]

Chris - terminology, you park a car but moor a boat also its a lock landing, not a landing strip!!! What ever happened to the calorifyer (not sure if spelling correct) that Bex put in? That would give you free hot water from the engine? Having said all that, your vlogs are great and tell Bex she has the patience of a saint!

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

The calorifier is all set up but just needs a few final tweaks , yes I dont know how Bex puts up with me

[@EricWigham]

get some volunteers from the marina and clean it up lol

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

great idea 😂

I’m a bit worried Bex on a couple of shots Chris looked intelligent haha but the he tried to open the lock gate when the lock was full 😂😂. How you haven drowned him I will never understand ❤

[@JohannusFandangulus]

Two things - why do locks sometimes get closed on rivers? Also, forever days is an incredible song - so catchy. Would you be able to sing it as an acoustic track with your normal voice rather than the performance kind of voice?

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

Its seems like its mainly due to maintenance, but this time its because we are blocked from passing, Thank you so much thats suck a lovely thing g to say, Thats a great idea

[@endeavour2968]

I wonder if you tattooed the word keys to the back of Chris’s hand he’d remember the frigging key. Better get Chris to get keys cut weekly, when his bank runs out of money he might start to remember the key 😂😂 What if you attached the key to a radio or walki talki, becks can transmit as she pulls away, Chris as a matter of giving instructions to proceed then can’t forget the key without forgetting the radio, would you forget the Radio Cris?😂

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

now that would be a good idea, we do actually have some walki talkies...but like everything just havent quite got round t them yet

[@endeavour2968]

@ thought you where going to say, you had walki talkies, but Chris left them on the last lock gate with the keys. 🤔😂🤣

[@PinkLittleElephant]

Normally in a lock you are ok to only use the centre line, rather than the bow and stern mooring lines. Also means you only have to adjust a single line as the water.level in a lock changes. Conversly, never use the centre line as an additional mooring line.

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

yes I wanted to get used to just using the centre line on this trip, but just forgot really , makes alot of sense

[@PinkLittleElephant]

@@TheNomadicCrobot Although the center line is obviously attached to the middle of the boat, most people then run.it among the roof with the end on the stern hatch so you can easily pick it up without having to climb all over the roof. Also made easier if you have 2 centre lines ... One for port and the other starboard. The loose end then runs back either side of the roof and doesn't get tangled with solar panels etc

[@reneharkamp4309]

Amsterdam, calling 📞 ,, the Keys ! ,, ,, Who's Keys ? ,, ,, the Kings 🤴 Keys!,, 😊

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

what keys??? haha

[@kwattsMacavity]

Ok some safety tips. DO NOT stand right at the back of the boat inside the arc of the tiller. If the rudder hits an underwater obstruction you will be straight off. Don't travel with the canopy up it's an expensive mistake to make. Especially since Becs isn't getting the benefit of it anyway and it is just obscuring her vision. Man up Chris and dress for the weather.

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

wise words, we certainly dont want to be forking out on a new cover

[@CaptainK007]

PAH a twig in the lock! Becks will have that sawn, carved and whittled into a war canoe complete with oars in no time. 😂

[@bigKDL]

Hi good video few little things don't travel with fenders down (your not a plastic boat) and never fenders in a lock very dangerous.love your playing with the ropes winding the rope around a bollard is as good as leaving it loose there is no real need to use ropes in a lock but that comes with a bit of experience but if. You really think you need them normally the centre rope around a bollard then given back to the captain to hold is more than sufficient in most locks.If I was in your position I would go and moor on the lock landing nice bollards no mud no one passing couldn't be safer then you would know as soon as the lock is cleared

[@paulinehiggins8239]

Oh sh*# it’s still there, not just is it there it’s huge and looks like it’s there forever, it looks like a forest has drifted down to the lock. Maybe you should get an electrician in to install better battery power as it looks like you might be there for some time. How disheartening is this. Oh guys I’m sorry. Not into punk but I must admit Chris you do have talent. Good luck to you both, I so hope they start work on this soon. Stay safe and see you soon. 🥰

[@TheNomadicCrobot]

Hi Pauline, yes we had heard about the tree weeks back but had tried avoid thinking about it too much, looks like a full EA job, but it should hopefully be made priority, Its just one of those things when cruising..you have to expect there to be closures this time of year, No I imagined it would be for a lot of people but seeing that I wrote it while away I thought id include it, I dont really write punk songs any more but with all the extra time decided to give a few a go again for giggles , Have a lovely week
