Despite the topic of necessary chores is sort of mundane with your inimitable style and panache you make an interesting vlog .
Thanks Marina and Myles.
Take care stay safe. XX❤❤
We’ve had log burners for twenty years or more and it’s easy to order new bricks and cut them to size but you have to be careful because they do tend to break easily.
Happy to be stocked up. Especially water. Cleaning is a important part of being happy.
Yes it is! 💜 xx
Love the video. Sending you waves of positive energy for your exam. 🏵🌅
Thanks Dana! 💜 xx
And MILES to go...before you DRIVE.
Congrats....you'll pass for sure.

Hi Marina,Myles. Another great Vlog. Thank you. The Doggies look very happy in your company. Such a struggle in the winter when you have to carry supplies across fields to your boat. The River was flowing fast. Wow! Have a great week. Good Luck with your driving exams etc. Take care
Thank you 💜 xx
SUCH a relatable vlog, we also live on a boat and feel the strain of the boating chores and how one day really sets you back! A beautiful vlog and as a new follower, I am looking forward to watching more :)
Epic cleaning!. But hey, spring is coming!!! and I remember that feeling
Very nice
Dear Marina, Wishing you all the best for your driving test. Do a little meditation before the test then during the test make obvious checking of your rear mirror and when reversing take it slowly making lots of use of all mirrors!!!!! Good luck 🍀 from Los Angeles where drive on the right!!!!!
Thank you Sue 💜 xx
cheap toilet brush tied to a broom handle, cleans the chimney very nicely, love your vlogs.
Thanks for the tip!
A really lovely vlog, those dogs are super cute! I bet you will miss them when they go home. I love watching your day to day life living onboard Alba. Take care both of you. X
You are so kind Shirley, thank you for watching every week and taking the time to leave us a comment, it means a lot 💜 xx
Good luck with your driving test.
Thanks Maxie 💜 xx
Springing forward with the time change, we all love. I've got allot of spring cleaning to do, but want to wait until furnace is not on. Then IT BEGINS. Take care out there and travel safe.
Ideally you'd replace those bricks, to protect the stove. You can usually get them on line, the proper heavy ones not that light stuff.
You guys would make wonderful parents to a lucky fur baby
You look like they youngest gay from 3 rd rock from the sun . I was thinking so he is you now xxx
Good luck on your drive test
Thanks Barbara 💜 xx
Well done on the chimney ! Suggestion before you do it again, take photos of the layout of the fire bricks! ! It’s like taking a photo of a completed jigsaw puzzle before you destroy it to complete again!!!
Great vlog as per usual 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it Rich! Thanks so much for taking the time to write us a nice comment, it means a lot 💜 xx
I know you may not know but another of narrow boater that I have seen are no longer on YOU TUBE a big mistary. But Iam clad you are still here and keep us up dated
good luck with the test
Thanks Emma 💜 xx
Great vlog and lovely cute doglets but omg how much dust does the coal fire make. Eeks. Best wishes.
Yep its a lot!
Lovely to see you both, we haven’t seen silly myles for a while ❤
Hello M&M, you are both a big pair of softies with Susie and George, but it's totally understandable, they're both very cute. Good luck with your up-coming test Marina. 😀xx
Thanks so much 💜 xx
Being welcomed home by happy dogs is ever so gratifying, no matter how many chores are waiting to be done, and look what you have achieved in the end! ❤
It was a wonderful welcome home, definitely worth leaving for it haha 💜 x
Thanks for the video…always nice to hear from the two of you…stay safe and take care !!
nice to hear from you too lovely, thank you for watching as soon as we post 💜 xx
Wow you guys it's looking good 👍🤗👌
Think need to get a dog for the Boat
Just wondering if you can buy replacement fire stones for your stove ? Must’ve frustrating to put that back together with odd pieces. ❤️
Yes they are replaceable 💜 xx
Ordered a jumper and a tote bag for my mum. She loves your channel. From Hessle 🫶🏽
Awww thanks so much Kevin, you legend! Hope you both enjoy 💜 xx
Good luck with your driving test.
Thank you 💜 xx
Your Dan Brown impression tho 🤣🤣 I love it!!
Hehe 😂 💜 xx
👍👍
: )
It's spring now catch up. L
Hi Michael, the spring in the UK officially starts around 23 March. The winter’s holding it’s grip 💜 xx
Thank you for sharing!!
You are so welcome 💜 xx
Yea, on getting a full tank of water and hope gas situation improves soon. Cool socks Myles had on unloading the coal. Timed changed here last weekend and have been blessed with night temperatures 45-58 F degrees. Not ready for the Texas heat and humidity.
We’ve been having snow here 💜 xx
I did have to laugh at this, you made it sound that when the clocks change you will get more solar.....Nothing to do with the clocks......🤣🤣
No it’s going to be a general improvement in quality of our evenings by having more light and more energy to do stuff. More light in the evening = more gets done = less pressure 💜 xx
Another boater said the reason there is a shortage of gas is the company that made the containers has closed down. Dogs do that to you. 👍🏼 was it my imagination or is the smoke from the boat blue?
Thats good to know about gas bottles! No, it wasn’t blue 😊 xx
Lovely vlog guys the dogs are cute and sure do like their heads rubbed, l think u should consider getting ur own dog from seeing 2days vlog u have a lot of love to give to one. I'm sure when Henley-on-Thames regatta comes round u could kit it out in its own sailor suit lol😂. xx💜
We will definitely get a dog in the future but not anytime soon 💜 Sailor outfit sounds perfect xx
Handy hint to clean you fjrebox window glass. Use wet paper or cloth and the grey ashes from your fire. It should be like a paste. Clean off with clean damp paper. Works a treat. I only learnt this myself a couple of years ago.
‼️Sorry lovely, I have to disagree and let everyone else who reads this to know as well. It’s not always a good idea. If you have coal fires using the ash will scratch the glass and can potentially break it. This is what happened to us 😰 We did that in the first year or two aboard, scratched the glass and the glass cracked. Had to replace it. It might work for wood fires but doesn’t work for coal 💜 xx
You should have the dogs more often, it was lovely to see you being soppy & laughing so much. ❤
We’d have them every weekend if we could 😍
Other boaters are saying about the gas shortage too. Puppies are so very cute. 💕
Yes they are, we can’t wait to have them back 💜 xx
Hi Myles and Marina! I've just recently discovered you and have very much enjoyed watching your vlogs. I've really liked watching from the beginning and seeing what it was like doing the switch from a house to a cozy narrowboat home. My heart lives there with you and on narrowboats.
I discovered you a couple of months ago, and about a month after that, I discovered another channel with music that I was enjoying. My mind was suddenly being blown because I was sure you Marina were the backup singer in those videos.
I suppose it was because you were both new to me, and I wasn't really familiar with you both yet, but I've since determined the two people weren't all you.
Anyway, it was an exciting moment to think you were also the backup singer, and for some reason, it has bound me more firmly to watching and enjoying the both of you. You probably won't think you look like her, but to show you what I was seeing, here are a few of the music videos:

ruclips.net/video/6lLOGolntCk/видео.html
Sorry, I confused you guys with Ula and Josh for having moved into a narrowboat recently. You're both enjoyable to watch, but it is you whom I had confused with the backup singer, not that any of this means anything to you.
Hi lovely, nice to meet you, I hope you watch our videos too. Have a lovely day 💜 xx
❤❤
Thanks for watching red 💜 xx
