We Need Somewhere SAFE For Our NARROWBOAT Ep 101

- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Some places feel safer than others and we really need to find somewhere safe for our narrowboat for a short time. Join us on board Narrowboat One Day More as we visit the stunning Warwick Castle, address a leaking problem, visit our boatbuilder and figure out the logistics of life on board with two dogs that need grooming!
Hello! If you are new here we are Caroline and Pete, and in 2021, after 10 years living in Texas, we sold up and moved back home to the UK to live full time aboard a 60ft narrowboat, One Day More, with our West Highland Terriers! Join us in our day to day life as we continuously cruise the canals and rivers of the UK. All of the ups, and the downs and everything in between!
If you would like to support our channel you can buy us a coffee or the westies some treats here www.buymeacoff.... All donations are put back into our channel, we are currently saving up for new audio equipment.

Awww, Poppy was so enchanting rolling around in the towel getting herself dry!
Oh she's a crazy girl when she's wet.When we lived on land she would always go chasing around the whole house getting herself dry! Even funnier was watching her reaction to herself on the TV when we were doing on pre-publishing check! She normally does't react to herself or Hamish on TV, but she was fixated on the scrabbling around in the towel 😂
Great service from Russell Narrowboats. Lovely clean, dry workshop with no leaking roof! 😂😂
Yes 100%! 😂
Lovely video! Hamish and Poppy have such BIG personalities-I’m still chuckling over Poppy’s bath antics and the shot of one of them peeking under the pram (?). 😂
Oh they are our entertainment for sure, especially Poppy who always has to be where the action is! That was her peeping under the pram hood. She loves nothing better than sitting up the back, keeping an eye out and greeting passers by when we are moored up! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
What a stunning castle visit! And you filmed it really beautifully. It was fun to see the boat shop, with the puppies enjoying exploring it. Take care and stay safe!
Thank you very much Ann! It's always lovely to hear you've enjoyed it, especially when it's not one of our regular cruising videos 😊
Thank You for taking us with you to the Warwick Castle and the events that were there!! 😊
Our pleasure! Glad you can join us by the power of RUclips! 😊
What a lovely visit to Warwick Castle. So much going on with the enactments. Some of those steps looked extremely steep and difficult, but you made it to the top.
I must say those boat builders were extremely helpful and efficient in producing a new door in a very short time.
Great video. Thanks.
You are so welcome! It was a fabulous day out, and the live shows and reenactments were so well done, and yes, lots and lots of steps, far more than I even filmed! We have been so happy with our boatbuilders and very lucky we have received such good aftercare 😊
What a great video and a lovely family day out, I must recommend to our family with children they would love it. We would never know what these place’s are like without you exploring. Well done 👍
You’re so welcome Judy! I can’t believe we have lived so close to Warwick Castle in a house but never been! It was even better using the Tescos Clubcard points and going for free. Make sure you mention that to your family 😊
That was a fantastic vlog! I love history and in particular the Plantagenet and Tudor Period which really defined England, so your trip to Warwick Castle was heaven to me. Poppy and Hamish look so smart with their haircuts etc but I bet they are glad it's only once a year!! Thank you Caroline for showing us Pete diligently making the temporary window hatch - whose a clever boy then 😂. But mostly Thanks to you both for taking me along with you on your adventures. Take care. xx
You are so welcome Jill, and it's always lovely to hear you've enjoyed the video. This was something a little different to our usual cruising videos, so I am always a little wary of still making it enjoyable! Poppy and Hamish are groomed every 8-10 weeks or so. We have friends who groom their own dogs, but westies have such a specific cut we would not want to attempt it ourselves, especially as Poppy is far from cooperative! Luckily our groomer Lee has got used to her ways in the 3 years we have been visiting him! 😊
Ahh, so love this one! So much to see and do around the canals too, seeing Alex doing well and getting the pups rescued from neglect! 😜 i’m sure Pete could make some fold over hinged seats so you can expand the area for sitting! Thanks guys, have a great weekend!❤
Always good to hear you’ve enjoyed it Eric! I worry when it’s not the usual cruising videos if people will still enjoy them. We have seen some extra seating on our type of stern but not really feasible to have them down when cruising 😊
@@onedaymoreaboard i’m sure anything you edit is going to be brilliant to watch! No worries there. Plus because the vlogs always seem way to short means they are exciting and interesting. Am sure we will see more on that seating conundrum soon… now what if they would flip up from the side of the existing ones either side of your entrance? 😎
Another beautifully composed piece that allows us on land and oh so far away to enjoy your travels and experiences. I am so grateful!
I hope you'll be happily cruising and enjoying one another's company for decades to come. Thanks for taking us along!
Forgot to say that the town was as delightful as the castle. I was just floored by the lovely carved bricks over the entrance to one of the first buildings you showed. And to think all of that is genuine. Wow! It must be the furthest thing possible from Texas.
Another very fine video Caroline. Loved the tour of Warwick Castle. Great way to start my Thursday morning. Thanks again.
You are so welcome Neil! Glad we could take you along with us. It was a fabulous day out! 😊
I love traveling with you! Watching your videos brings peace and calm at the time I need it the most. Be blessed and thank you💜
That’s so lovely to hear, and glad we can be of some help in some way. Take care 😊
Wow!!!! that brought back memories, we hired a canal boat from Gayton marina and cruised up to Warwick and back in a week. Hard going as I recall, the one and only time we did a canal holiday. Thanks for taking us back
Warwick Castle looks like a full day out! and of course Poppy looks spiffy with her haircut.
It really was a wonderful day! We were surprised at how much there was to see and do, and the shows were fabulous faulty and very entertaining! Despite the trials of the groomer, Poppy does always end up looking very cute 😊
Enjoyed the trip to Warwick. Thanks for taking me alone.
You’re so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
What an enjoyable video!
Glad you enjoyed it Mary, and thank you even more for letting us know
Very enjoyable!
Many thanks Liz! Thats always good to hear 😊
Warwick Castle Is impressive great video
It was such a great day out, and we are so glad we took advantage of being so close. Thanks for watching 😊
Really enjoyed this. I love history. It was the only subject I was any good at when I was at school!
That’s so good to hear Jill! A little different from the regular cruising videos but we couldn’t miss out Warwick Castle when we were so close! 😊
Thanks!
Hi Both & the kids🦴🦴 Great watch as normal👍 And a sing sing at the end of course X🐇x
Glad you enjoyed it Julie! And yes, even I sing at the end when I'm watching it all through before I publish it 😂
I remember visiting the castle..when I was taking some video footage of the interior some old hag from the NT said stop filming and how would I like it if someone went into my house and took photos of my things...got to the gift shop and you guessed it , a big hard cover coffee table book of the castle and it's interior and a DVD as well!!!.🤣🤣❤️🇬🇧
Oh wow, someone not happy in their job! Thankfully no one was telling anyone to stop filming this time! Thanks for watching 😊
@@onedaymoreaboard I think it was a NT volunteer who was suffering from delusions of grandeur!!.🤣🤣
Lovely photography and video. Warwick really is a great place to visit - fascinating history and you did a great job selling it! Glad you got your window sorted out. What excellent service from the company!
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed it! It's always lovely to hear. And yes, Russells Narrowboats have really looked after us for sure 😊
Love Warwick castle x Especially on an events day x
It was such a fabulous day out! So much to see and do and the shows were great quality! We learned so much too that we had forgotten from school! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
great vlog on the cut cranking it on the cut good see you love the life on the cut keep up the great vlogs on channel thanks lee
Thanks Lee 👍
fantastic vlog lovely to see Warwick Castle and so much to do, I really like the photos you take of your journey along the canal especially the black & white ones you should do a book of your photos
Thank you so much Christopher. I've had quite a few comments about the photos, so really should think more seriously about a book or a calendar 😊
Watching Pete looking at the engines at Warwick and doing the door on the boat I have to wonder what flavour of engineer he is? Great video we toured Warwick 2 times while over there.
It's a great place isn't it! We are so glad we took the time to visit the castle especially. You really can tell Pete's an engineer can't you, he's a mechanical engineer, and just loves engines! 😊
Now I have to google Warwick castle for a history lesson. Is this very recent? The flowers look beautiful. Many thanks for sharing. As always loving your videos.
You're so welcome Marcia, we love taking you along with us! This was filmed at the end of July, but the hanging flower baskets everywhere have seemed to stay gorgeous for quite a while this year as we've had such a lot of rain! 😊
Thank you for the video. Hope the family / puppies and you are doing well. Take care - God Bless Spinner
You are so kind Spinner! The weather is miserable and getting colder but at least we have the cosy fire 🔥 😊
@@onedaymoreaboard You are welcome. Been under the weather a bit. Will update you next time I buy some coffee. WX here - hit 41 last night - was a 'bit' chilly this morning. Fall weather here for sure. Removing the window AC unit soon. Take care - God Bless.
It's always fun to spend time with you guys. Visiting a castle is definitely not something yo do around here. Why did the hatch door need to be redone? My heart goes out to Poppy for having to endure the groomer. Be well. Leigh
We are always glad you can join us Leigh! Isn't RUclips a wonderful thing! You're right, not a common sight in Texas! But you have the Alamo! Rain had got into the hinge of the hatch door as we think the seal had come away, and the damp had caused the oak to swell and stain. It was a quick and easy fix though, with the lovely guys at Russell Narrowboats 😊
Beautiful memories 😊We're not far from the castle ,because we live in Coventry. Best regards❤️☀️
That's good to hear Julia! We lived in Rugby years ago and can't believe we have never been. It was a wonderful day out! 😊
We have just done the route you are on and stayed at the Saltisford Arm. What a lovely mooring and lovely people. Unfortunately we couldn’t go in the castle due to only recently rehoming our little dog who cannot be left on his own. We viewed from the outside ! So thank you for showing us what we missed! Loving following you on our summer route. Although, theoretically, you were following us ! Can’t wait for the next vlog ! The Hatton flight ? xx Jean
It really is just lovely isn’t it Jean and the people there make it even more special. Glad you could give you a little tour of the castle, and totally understand about not leaving your little dog. You’re right, the next episode that I’m just finishing is the Hatton flight of locks and on towards Kingswood junction, stopping near Tom O’ The Wood pub 😊
Great video as usual - Pete the handyman! Pity this isn’t this week…..
Next episode is the Hatton flight too! Only a few weeks out of sync with you guys 😊
Warwick Castle is very neat place. I particularly loved the raptors. It was a big crowd even though the sky was VERY moody. I was afraid you'd be caught in a downpour. The town's flowers were gorgeous. Of course, Warwick is a tourist destination but it seems like all the villages take pride in their common areas. The pups look so nice with their grooming, but they are probably glad it doesn't come around very often. Good idea to bypass the dryer for Poppy since it causes a lot of stress. ❤
It was a wonderful day out Dorothy, and we were so lucky with the weather staying dry! And you're so right about villages and towns taking pride in their common areas, especially with the abundance of flowers. You will see even more as we head down the River Avon in a few episodes time, with some very gorgeous villages and small towns. 😊
@@onedaymoreaboard The volunteerism is impressive too. I'm in awe of the volunteers that are trying to reclaim the canals.
The castle looked very interesting.What's it very expensive to go in. 😊
It was a wonderful day out! A full day ticket ranges from about £28-£39 depending on the day and time of year. We actually bought our tickets using our Tescos Clubcard points that we had saved from grocery shopping, so it was a free day out really! Definitely worth the money as it was full day out with so much to see and do. The only downside really which is typical of these sorts of places, was the poor quality and expensive food options! Next time we would be more prepared and take our own picnic 😊
@@onedaymoreaboard thank you for the information. Have a great weekend 😀
Another amazing video I really like this one quick question is your son Alex no longer working for the cruise ship or is he home on his two or three month break that they always get?
So glad you enjoyed it Bette, it's always good to hear! Alex is between cruise contracts at the moment. He starts rehearsals for the next contract next month, and will be joining the ship in January, together with his girlfriend Hannah, who you will have seen in some of our videos. She is a dancer in the production cast and they are excited to be on the same contract! 😊
Hi guys hope your all doing, can i ask how come you guys havnt swapped your muilty fuel stove for a diesel stove?
Xx
Thanks for watching Edward 😊
The Cape is my favorite pub in the world. The food is scrumptious. It helps build you up for Hatton.
You’re so right there! It’s either your reward at the top or your sustenance for the way down. Hatton is a beast of a flight 😊
