    One of the big things that I like about your vlogs is that you allow us to see the journey but don't leave us alone. Your commentary is entertaining and enlightening and matched only by the scenery - happy cruising

    Hi Phil , loved the reflection of the sky on the water , I see that Red the Martian was late for work again , looking forward to spring and the circle of new life beginning with luck heralding the long hot summers balmy days ? ... that's if the geoengineering idiots allows us a few days of respite ? ... I've always loved the dawn chorus , just why I always say, a new day begins I don't know ?, .. as the morning light fills the sky , heaven returns to earth , with the rustling of mother nature apron , along with the sound of you Phil chugging along up the amazon ? ... Lol , .... travel safe .... Trev.

      @@NarrowboatJourneys Hi Phil, did you bump the sides going through the lift bridge? Is that why it came down do you think? It must be VERY finely balanced if that is the case!

    • @NarrowboatJourneys

      No, it was the (gentle) wind deflected by my boat going through I think.
