Handy tip when frozen in ...... run your engine in gear for a couple of minutes in forward, then a cpl of mins in reverse. This will break up the ice around your boat. It will aid movement of boats passing you, there'll be smaller ice sheets to scratch your own paintwork. But more importantly, it's good for the wildlife around you, giving them a patch of water rather than ice, & it's less tempting for dogs & cats to walk on. Just saying from experience of 25+ years of winter cruising with a cat & dog.

Wes, you are nothing if not resourceful - not sure I've ever seen a Thetford cassette flushed with empty wine bottles and a coffee cup before 🤔🤣🤣. Rufus and doops definitely have the right idea - hot water bottle and the fireplace are definitely the best spots. Drone footage at the beginning looking very good as well 👍

Great drone action guys! Absolutely love seeing the ice. We don’t get that cold down here 🇦🇺 so I find it fascinating seeing everything frozen, the thickness of the ice and hearing all the crunching. Thank you 😊

I grew up in Rickmansworth, it's where I first fell in love with narrowboats, I would cycle down to the lock and hang out opening the gates for people (I was only about 12 ish) back in the days when it was perfectly ok to be gone from home all day on my bike and nobody worried!!! The good old days!

Hi from Canada! Sorry to hear that ice is holding up your plans. On the weekend my brother told me that the lake he was ice fishing on had 76 cm thick ice…plenty good to drive on with a vehicle.

One really get those poop experiences in frost.. 😐 Doops and Rufus go so well together, that is amazing. Yes, old rabbits are a bit sad to watch (I have an old rabbit too), they get stiff in their backs and cannot clean themselves so well. I believe that my rabbit is sad due to not being able to jump around any longer. All the best. 🤩

Great video. Love that you are using the drone. Sorry you were sick but hope you are fully recovered Amy. Wes and The Bears were extremely creative with the Elsan cleaning. So nice that your family came to spend time, and you had game night with family and The Bears! Happy cruising. 😊🤗 Kathy

a few years ago we did a floating market at Berkhamsted and had a good day trading, but it snowed overnight & the canal froze! We were stuck for a while, the fuel boats couldn't even get through as the locks were covered in ice & it was much too slippery underfoot. During that time I had my car broken into there was nothing of value in the car, it was just a pain! Mind you there are lots of worse places to be stuck, it was a short walk into the town, and we were moored on the edge of Waitrose car park!

Was eating my lunch while watching , so found the loo scenes interesting haha. We have been there and doen the same thing, its not something you have to think about on dry land of course. Sorry you were so unwell while it was so cold Amy. Spring just around the corner now. Keep going guys. Your both so upbeat no matter what life throws your way.

This reminds me of the Franklin expedition in 1847 (?), only, for those poor souls and the pets/ animals that were on board, things sadly didn't come to a happy ending. They really had it rough. Feel better soon! ❤

Can I just ask. How does the CRT actually know of you have moved on every 2 weeks? Do you have to inform them of your location every time you move, or do the employ someone as a canal traffic warden? 😂

they do actually have wardens 😅 they’re called spotters and they go up and down the towpath and log the boats in their area. They usually cycle the route 😊
