That flight round the church really showed up good in 3D.
I wonder, that 3X speed section. Was it for my benefit? If so, I will say it didn't make much difference to the effect. The 3D is certainly good on the cruises.
You know I never thought of that and glad to here the 3D is working. I add HDR effect to the videos and I think that helps too
Ahh you are very well Smudge ☺️ Hope you three are well. I seem to have missed so many cruises lately - flipping work don’t half get in the way! 🥰
Hi Lesley, we're all good thanks and Hope you are too. Ahh work, I remember it well 😆
Xx
Chris and Steve thank you for sharing your cruise. Very sad time in my country right now so your cruises definitely help settle my mind for a bit. Little Smudge is always adorable
It sure is, so sad. Our thought are with the families. Glad we can bring a little cheer to people
Thanks, Smudge, for the sign-off!
Your welcome :-)
Another awesome vlog. Love that Smudge closed out the vlog. Love his voice 🥰😉 Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
Thanks so much! 😊
Better background music on this video. Are you allowed to pick up the logs from the towpath to use in the stove on Amy Jo ?
Thank you several people have remarked about the music. Yes we can take the logs so C&RT leave them for just that reason. Not all wood burns well but most if dried well burns fine
GG says woof to smudge
and a woof to GG
Yay! A visit to the mighty Wrexham 😃🏴 Thst will go down well in my house 😂😁🥰
In a good or bad way 😊
"Your adventure story has inspired us all."
Thank you
Great Vlog Steve, I didn't know that diesel bug was a thing. It's amazing how dirty the fuel can get.
We were really surprised. Didn’t think our tank was that dirty. We’re always careful with our fuel sources
Hi Steve You'd expect more smudge than sludge. What would show diesel bug? I would think that the black stuff is dead diesel bug. How much did it cost? I don't think the trees were poplars (not populars) as the cuttings looked like conifers. Also the drying device is a mangle, not a mangler. Jeff
Jeff the black stuff was sediment and it cost £200. Of course you are right about the trees. Why I thought they were populars heaven only knows
Very interesting vlog ... Del is a diamond .. cheers for the mention .
Any time Andy
Wow …that was a good job jobbed wasn’t it! Love it when you can see the benefit of something (fuel polishing!)🎉🎉
We were surprised just how much crap was in the tank to be honest
Aww thanks for the shout out, glad you had your fuel cleaned, definitely worth doing isn’t it! Lovely vlog as always! Didn’t know you could get advent calendars for dogs, Smudge looked like he enjoyed that! Loved the tractors, how cool were those hooters! Brilliant! Hope we get to see you soon! xx
You are more than welcome 😊. So glad we watched your vlog and got the polish done. Never thought it would be that bad to be honest
Another very interesting vlog. Loved the tractors. Really interesting was to see the maintenance, wonder if you will notice the difference now you have new filter.
The engine runs a bit smoother now. We are going to have it done again in a few years time
Enjoyed the tractor show,could not see them a your live feed,but definately heard them,glad you left Chris & Jan shopping in Wrexham and switched to the fuel clean operation,yes you guessed it,I hate town centers and shops,Thanks for sharing
I admit I hate shopping too 🤣
Another great vlog! I feel so sad when I see so many trees being cut down. I know sometimes they have to be removed because of disease or being a safety hazard. Oh well… Love the tractors 🚜 That is so neat, an advent calendar of doggie treats for Smudge. Love Chris’ walkabout the marketplace/village, with Jan. Wow, that’s unreal all that sediment was removed from Amyjo’s tank. Good all that “yuk” was removed. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us…
I tried to find a photo of the tree from last time we were that way but couldn’t find one. I would have thought they could have left one or two standing
❤Xx
👍
Wow I wonder if the boat will run better with that sludge out or if it wasn't yet built up enough to effect it?
It does seem to be running smoother now
great vlog on channel keep up the great vlog thanks for shareing
Thank you, I will
GG says woof to Smudge
🦮Smudge woofs back
Hi Steve, just watching this one in January 2025 as it covers the stretch near Dunham Massey where the major breach occurred on 1st January near the Bollin Aqueduct, so it's interesting to see it in happier and healthier times, just after 8 mins into the video where the narrow section started before you crossed the Bollin Aqueduct, where the geese and goslings were. The water stop at 7 mins is where Josh and his parents of "Taylors on a Narrowboat" channel fame were moored near where the dramatic events unfolded (check their vlog!), and they've been stranded there all month waiting for temporary repairs to be completed in order to allow them to refloat and continue towards Lymm, so again it's interesting to look back at when you folks were there to provide some perspective!
Your comment made us watch it again and I see what you mean. Such a shame. Hope they repair it soon
"This Content is really amazing! Great job, everything is explained very well."
Much appreciated!
Lovely vlog so relaxing rolling through the countryside and AmyJo in the snow put the topper on it,
Hi Silverbirch. Yes we waited 11 years to get a snowy photo of AmyJo and now I have it. So pleased 😊
Xx
Yes, that was quite a bit of snow on AmyJo! Glad you had some quality time with family.
Thanks Frank. We have had snow on her before but in a marina. We really wanted it iut on the cut and now we have it 😊
Another awesome vlog! Love Smudge having a conversation with mum. 😊
Thanks Brigid. I couldn’t resist that scene 😊
Great pictures of the canal
Thank you kindly
Great blog
Thank you
Great vid 👌 Ruth and David life's Too short
Thank you both. Hope you are both well and keeping warm.
AmyJo looked so pretty in the snow 😍 Another wonderful vlog - thank you for continuing to share your adventures with us. And thank you Smudge for coming out of your shell and continuing the commentary. What a super star you are 🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
Glad I've watched your vlog just loved seeing the beautiful scenery in the canal as you ride along just seems so peaceful even with the snow. Seems Smudger has the life as well. Cute homes alongside the canal too wouldn't mind being there. Just stay safe, warm and tc of yourselves. Steve Chris and Smudger thank you for letting us join you on your journey. Til next time, cya. 👍😁🤗
Glad you enjoyed it
great vlog on the cut canking it keep uip the great vlog cranking it thanks lee
Glad you enjoyed it
You're very welcome, Steve, Chris and Smudge. Thanks for sharing your fascinating adventures and I'm more than happy to start contributing in return which hopefully helps in some way!
Well, like I said. Thank you so much!
great Vvlog guys, glad the beanie is coming in handy in your cold wintery snowy weather.
It sure is Lyn. Ever so warm!
Incredible footage. I can see why you get all verklempt.
Yes its beautiful there. One of our favourite stops on the Llangollen canal
Wow what an amazing mooring. ❤
It sure is. Our fav spot on the Llangollen
❤Xx
👍
That is a nice lake (mere). I could see you folks staying here for a week or two.
Maybe next time Frank if we are lycky
Another awesome vlog! Spectacular views…. And as you know, I’m a sucker for drone footage…Love it! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Take care…
Thank you Brigid. I love flying the drone so more to come 😊
Lovely scenery, I agree Steve about Blakemere. Also when you came out of the tunnel. Must have been so frustrating hanging around trying to get the services sorted out.
We got there in the end, such is boat life 😊
Blakemere is just beautiful and your drone footage was outstanding 😍 Smudge cam would have been good there! 😃 Funny seeing Chris without a coat given how flipping cold it is only a few weeks later. Just watched Paul and Anthony’s vlog and you all on Boxing Day and it was positively barmy! 😂🥰
Yes we couldn’t believe how warm it was up there but cold at the basin
Some very nice pictures of the English country side and canals
Thanks Les
Blakemere is stunning in any weather but a bit of sunshine does pop the colours, I too have to stop when I see the sun shining through a beech tree! Lol! Blakemere is my favourite stretch of any canal to date, my Dad used to go fishing there back in the 60/70's. 🙂
It really is! We’ve stopped there several times and at different times of the year. Love every minute there
great vlog on you cranking it on the cut with frend thanks for your share on channel cranking it on cut thanks lee
No problem 👍
Happy new year to you both. Lovely video as always. For some reason, RUclips had unsubscribed me. Looking forward to another year of your channel. Take care.
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. Its happened before to others and youtube have no idea why they say
smudge has very good english for a dog!
Not bad is it 😅
We like to see and learn about towns we have not been to see. Thanks for the vlog.
Your more than welcome, thanks for watching
