- It's time to leave Haigh Country Park after witnessing the Northern Lights from our Narrowboat. We head up the beautiful Johnson Hillock flight of locks at Chorley on the Leeds Liverpool Canal. We cause damage to our Narrowboat but how expensive will it be and we find a beautiful mooring with friends. #narrowboats #Narrow Escapes #England RUclips #Leeds Liverpool Canal #canal narrowboat videos #narrowboat #narrowboatlife #travelvlog #travelcouple #canalboat #electricpropulsion #oakums #vetus #birds #nature #Engiro #Engiro Motor #tinyhome #narrowescapes #art #pencilart #Johnson Hillock #Chorley #Lancashire #electricpropulsion

Another great vlog lads keep them coming Ray.
Thanks Ray. Have a good week ♥️
Super Anthony to the rescue! 🙌 You guys balance each other out so well. And Dexter Boy. Bless him. ❤ Sending love and appreciation to you three. 👏🏼😘🐶
Aww thank you Michael. It was such hard work. We like to think we compliment each other. Dexter is noticeably aging now bless him. Breaks my heart. Have a lovely week and take care ❤️
That looks like a lovely quiet mooring, hope it was. Fab vlog, as always. Thank you. Cheers.
It was beautiful Jane. Hated leaving. Hope you have had a good week so far ❤️
What a beautiful area you’re in 💚 I’m glad that Paul’s eye is much improved. Have a lovely week xxx
It was Angela. Loved it there. The gas bubble has gone now, which is good. Paul has a checkup and of this month so fingers crossed. Have a lovely week ❤️
Wow, I could easily spend two weeks in that spot. Or two months for that matter! Simply gorgeous.
I must admit, as a fellow dog lover it's hard for me to watch Dexter slowing down. I can't imagine what it's like for you guys. Well, actually I can, been there many times. He's such a lovely boy. I never would have thought I'd become attached to a dog that I've never met in person but for those of us that watch your channel regularly it feels like he belongs to all of us. And we all love him. Anyway, didn't meant to get melancholy there!
Hey Mike. It definitely was a beautiful spot. Almost didn’t want to leave. It breaks my heart to see him age. He is definitely living his best life and we love him to bits. It is lovely that so many people seem to care for him too. I wonder if he realised how loved he is. Hope you have a fabulous week. ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked Oh yes, he knows Anthony, definitely.
Completely agree ❤
Been watching you guys for sometime now. You both are amazing to watch and really enjoy your adventures.
Thank you so much. That’s really kind. Have a lovely weekend ❤️
The eye is looking so much better. Keep following Drs orders and you'll be fine. BTW, the lite-duty attire suits you, like you're sailing the Med on a yacht.
Love to see you guys join up with lovely Heidi awhile, that would be a treat for us.
Looking forward to you're hopefully soon rescheduled trip to Paris. Great medicine for a stressed couple. Take an evening bateaux cruise on the Seine and let the illuminated enchantment of Paris wash over you.
Woof to Dexter.
Hey Philip. The gas bubble has completely dissolved in his eye. Wish we were sailing the med with all the rain we have had. Heidi changed her plans, 😢, we would have loved to cruise with her. We loved her company on the Weaver a year and a bit ago.
Paris was amazing. Such a beautiful city and everyone was so friendly.
Have a lovely week and take care ❤️
Thank you for this video. Paul you look fit and slim. Did you notice you have a wonky eye though.?Haha😉Hugs to Dexter. I’m so happy the weather is better for all of you. Cheers.
Glad you enjoyed. Paul keeps saying he needs to do the locks more to try and keep fit. Wonky eye, where 😂. Weather was great but now just rain again. Have a good week ❤️
Oh you got to see the Northern Lights. I missed it the first night, and then too much cloud cover the next night. Must have been fantastic :)
Aww sorry you missed it Andy. It was incredible to see from the boat. Hope you have a wonderful week ❤️
Yippy - - it's Friday so it means Narrowboat Life Unlocked time again 👏👏.
Looking so green. You have moored in a beautiful spot. Hope you enjoyed your meal. 😘😘
Aww thank you. She definitely is very green 😂. It was a cracking mooring, almost didn’t want to leave. The meal was delish. Have a good week ❤️
😘
Truth, fact and honesty..
pillars of trust..
Absolutely. All couples argue. Hope you have a good weekend ❤️
I love to see that you two are a normal couple. Got to admit, though, what you call fussing at each other is pretty sweet compared to most! Hope Anthony's sunburn browns up and doesn't hurt! Beautiful scenery this week, LOVED the Northern Lights, and glad you had super Anthony along to handle all the heavy lifting!! Have a lovely weekend!
Thanks Diana. We don’t have blazing rows. Just bicker 😂. Sunburn has calmed down thankfully. The Northern lights were a real treat. Hope you have a lovely weekend too ❤️
Hi, gentlemen! Just watched this video and will need to binge the three(?) additional vlogs that I missed while on my 3 week vacation to Illinois and Wisconsin, USA. I need to google what a prang is. Will need a picture along with the description. 😅 On to the rest of my vlog binge! 💚💚💚
Aww hope you had a good vacation ❤️
Nice video guys👍. Whenever Anthony is cooking I get the urge to do the same. And now, off to the kitchen.
Hey Chris. Thank you. Glad you enjoyed. The Hairy Dieters Healthy Cottage Pie with Tumbled Spuds is definitely worth trying. Have a lovely week ❤️
Hi Paul, Anthony and Dexter! I have been away and just started to watch your vlog today 😊 great homecoming for me that your vlog is as great as before. It is fabulous to catch a snippet of narrowboat life and the close-knit community. Hope you all are getting healthy and strong. Wishing Paul’s quick smooth recovery on his eyes. Anthony you are looking toned and trimmed from the last time I saw you. Bravo! And nice to see Dexter. He looked good for a 16.5 year old dog. BTW, did you do a video on the comparison between having your current narrowboat and the one you sold? Like to hear your feedback. Have a great week ahead. Look forward to your new blogs to come.
Welcome home. We got back yesterday from our delayed Paris trip. Boating definitely is a great community. We love it. Paul now has a cough. I am great though. Off for a run later. I have really been trying to lose weight. Hard for me to tell if it is working. Paul has a checkup on his eye at the end of this month, so fingers crossed. We never did do a comparison, this may be something we should consider for a future vlog. Hope you had a good time away. Have a good week ❤️
Lovely vlog n cruise. Love the banter it’s like being there. So natural. Brilliant and dear Dexter doing so well too. Best wishes. ❤.
Thanks Trevor. We want our vlogs to be as close to what we get up to as we can, so good to hear that. Have a lovely week and take care. We love Dexter so much. ❤️
Loved that vlog. My wife and I were walking along the canal in that area a few months ago and it really is a lovely place. Anthony you are a gud un looking after Paul and I’m sure Paul would do the same for you. Keep safe and well ❤️
Hey Nigel. It is a beautiful area isn’t it? He definitely would look after me too. Hope you have a great week ❤️
That bow thruster is really a good piece of gear. The glass roof, it is so clean and gave an interesting optical illusion as your narrowboat passes under bridges.
The bow thruster is great Frank. Great for last minute quick adjustments. Love how the light reflects off the skylights. Not something we thought about when we got them. Hope you have a wonderful week ❤️
All ways very interesting guy's watching your vlogs and wee dexter god love him ,got to ask what is tumble potatoes wish you had put up a photo of your dinner dish ,how lovely was that dexter getting new toy you have got lovely fallers on your channel save traveling 🐕💙
Hey Helen. Glad you enjoy. Dexter is such a gentle soul. Tumbled spuds is basically par boiled potatoes and then roughly mash (not to a smooth consistency) with plenty of pepper and a little salt. It sits on top of the mince like a cottage pie. People are so kind. Dexter loved his toy. Have a great weekend ❤️
Good Evening hope you are all well? Just catching up, we have been decorating 🤦♀️. Sending lots love and hugs xxxxx
Hey Michele. We are currently in Paris, hence the late reply. Hate decorating so good luck with that. 😂. Love to you and Simon ❤️
@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked wow, just seen the pictures on fb it looks beautiful x
Loved it ❤️
A rubber hammer maybe with lots of cloth around it when you tap it gently back into shape. Guess it will always be a bit weak in that area but should work hopefully……would insurance cover it or maybe you dont want to use insurance due to increase in premiums if you do.
Oh yeah dont forget Anthony that drinking lots of water and warm drinks very good for clearing a chest infection….
Hey Lisa. We tried the rubber mallet thing, it was ok but because we were getting new covers, they had to fit perfectly, so we had to replace the bar 😢.
Thanks for the tip. I am usually good with hydration and tend to drink at least 2 litres a day. Have a great week ❤️
Wow the lights, amazing. It’s 1 degree here in Dartmoor, Victoria as I write, just went and “put another log on the fire” and here you guys are in T-shirts, but I love the cold. I couldn’t walk across the lock gates like that, it’s way to high for me, I don’t do heights, I’m grateful I’m only 5’ 2” if I was any taller I’d have to crawl as it would be to high for me. LOL. This is a very pretty trip, I’m loving what you’re doing. I reckon Heidi would be a fun person to travel with. Oh hell no the frame. Great trip, stay safe guys and huge cuddles to our beautiful Dex, love you sweetie. 🥰
Hey Pauline. I have to admit, I prefer to be cold that hot. The weather has recently changed and we seem to be getting lots of rain. Ironically , Paul is 6’ and hates heights 😂.
We have travelled with Heidi before and had a great time.
The frame was a costly mistake. 😬. Hope you have a lovely week ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked. You can send some of the rain here if you like. I think I told you, but hell I’d not expect you to remember with all the posts you get, we ran out of water in our tank a few weeks ago, just so little rain; all the farmers (cattle) are saying they have never seen it so dry, it’s costing them a fortune getting hay brought in so we’d be grateful for some of your rain. Take care guys, look forward to your next visit here. 🥰
Think we often forget how extreme the other way the weather can be. Hope the rain comes soon. ❤️
Life wouldn’t be the same without my Saturday morning (watching from NZ) peaceful Narrowboat life episode. You folks have played a huge part in reducing my hypertension, so thanks for the hard work, we really appreciate the effort! I personally love hearing you both bicker, it makes your videos feel more natural and adds an element of humour, as you’re never mean to each other. Best wishes to you three x
Aww thank you Nolan. Glad you are enjoying the vlogs and find them relaxing. We never argue but do bicker. Like all couples, you can’t agree all the time. Have a great week and take care ❤️
Thanks guys for yet another great video. Have a good weekend 👍
Thank you Kevin. Glad you enjoyed. Have a lovely weekend too. ❤️
Ouch, your poor frame. Hope you could get it fixed ok. Just lost my favourite windlass to the canal sprites today and that was bad enough. Those locks are hard work though we found many of the L and L locks were. Love the lady photobomber at the last lock lol.
I know! It was an expensive fix 🙄. Fingers crossed not lost a windlass yet. It is gutting isn’t it? They really were hard work, we forgot how difficult the L and L can be. 😂, I would have photo bombed too. Have a great week ❤️
Another fine vlog! Beautiful weather, beautiful scenery. The color of Morning Star fits in so well with the vegetation along the canal. The Northern Lights looked amazing. Dexter is a little doll; glad he liked his new toy! 😍
What is tumble spuds? Enjoy your show!!
Thank you. www.hairybikers.com/recipes/view/hairy-bikers-healthy-cottage-pie-recipe is the recipe I use. ❤️
Aww glad you enjoyed. We were concerned when we first saw the colour but love how much it blends in. It was incredible to see the Northern Lights from the boat. Dexter is just the sweetest soul. He loved his new toy. Think it was the crackling it made. Have a lovely week ❤️
Great video,Anthony you must be soooooo tired,bless you…love you guys ❣️🇨🇦
Thanks Barb. I was shattered 😂. Hope you have fab week ❤️
I hate witnessing couples arguing. Give us positive vibes to match the glorious scenery. Please
Me too. We tend to bicker rather than argue to be honest. Like to keep things real too. Have a great weekend ❤️
😻another great video.
Thank you. Have a good weekend ❤️
remember to look after your eye
hmm am not sure how to use the emote and add a comment I will figure it out lol
It is getting there Terence ❤️
😂.
I've been a occassional watcher over the past year but am really enjoying your vids lately so try not to miss any. They are gentle & lovely. I agree with others, you balance each other out. It makes watching delightful😊
I agree Pam these two guys are a joy!
Thank you Pam. That’s really kind. Glad you are becoming a more regular viewer. We do appreciate it. Hope you have a great week ❤️
Aww thank you Joan. 😊. Have a lovely week ❤️
Please do not argue on your flogs, there is enough of that in this world this and other vlogs are the new fairy storys with happy endings for old people. Old man 70 lol 😊
That’s not old Mike. Aww no worries. We like to keep it real but can understand people don’t want to see the bickering 😂: have a lovely week ❤️
Go on Anthony 👊🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 Looking good for it to my lovely ☺️ Hope the pram hood pole was an easy or st least inexpensive fix. Glad to see you back at it Paul and feeling better 😃 And always lovely to see ol Dexter looking relaxed and happy 🥰 Happy weekend to the 3 of you ☺️
Aww thanks Lesley. Been going just under a year to the gym and lost 1 1/2stone. Feel loads better. The pole was extortionate! Hope you have a lovely weekend ❤️
It is useful to see that canal boat journeys are not all about pleasant cruising through the countryside. That flight of locks is not for the weak or the impatient.
Hey James. Glad you enjoyed. It definitely isn’t all roses and castles. Those locks were back breaking. Hope you have a lovely week ❤️
Sounds like your eye is coming along quite well Paul. Thank goodness! Glad you got to see the northern lights. What a gift that was to see them. Anthony you got your workout today with setting all those locks. Dexter is a very sweet old boy. He seemed to like his new toy. What a busy place to moor. Great to have your friends around though. Have a lovely weekend. Cheers!
It is definitely getting there Heidi. Northern lights were incredible. Never thought we would see them from our boat. I most definitely did get my workout. It was back breaking. Dexter is the sweetest soul. He loved his new toy bless him. Loved the mooring, didn’t want to leave. We had a great time with friends. Have a fab week and take care ❤️
Dexter is adorable and what an amazing age, we have a Springer Spaniel who is 14 years and 4 months. We have recently bought an Innopet Mamute dog stroller which folds down and is invaluable for when our George gets too tired. Maybe good for Dexter?
Hey Denise. He really is amazing. We adore him so much. We tried him in a trolley, but he wasn’t having any of it. 😂. We just don’t overdo his walks now. Hugs for George and have a lovely week ❤️
Have only been watching your vlogs for 2 1/2 - 3 months. Trying to catch up on some of your older ones, and really enjoying them.Paul always says at the start of the vlog who you are. I know your from Manchester Anthony, but where is Paul from, and how did you meet each other.Plus what a great talent Paul has with his drawing.
Hey Jennifer. Glad you found our channel and are enjoying the vlogs. Paul is from Wigan and we met online 24 years ago this year. I have to agree (I know I am biased) but I think Paul is amazing.
Have a great week and take care ❤️
Sterling effort there Anthony….loved the vlog ,as peaceful as ever. How is you generator doing with diesel consumption? Did you manage to fix the pram cover? Have a good week Morten
Hey Morten. It was back breaking. Was so glad when we got to the top. Consumption is loads better. I reckon we are probably on par to the last boat given we don’t cook with gas.
The pram cover was costly to sort. All done though thankfully. Have a lovely week too ❤️
Sorry I didn’t get to say hi in person, hopefully next time.
Aww it would have been lovely Heather. Sure we will pass through again. ❤️
A lovely way to start my weekend. Thanks guys. That's a beautiful mooring you finished on....and tumbled spuds...yum!
Thanks Neil. Really kind. We landed back today from Paris, hence the slow reply. Have a great week ❤️
What a lovely day and canal,I love the different shades of greens. So nice to see quite a bit of Dexter, bless him. I'm like you Anthony, I love doing the locks and walking between them, it good exercise. Noticed some paddle mechanisms were horizontal, not seen those before, are the unusual to the L&L canal ? I love the banter between you both, and knowing you, know its doent mean anything, its just the way you both are = lovely lol. Hope the days again get as nice as that day was with the sun and warmth. Happy cruising to you three xxx
Hey Susan. It was a stunning location. Dexter is doing ok bless him. It really is good exercise. The horizontal ones are fairly unusual. They have them on the Rufford branch too. Absolutely that Susan. We have always had banter like this and there is no malice in it.
This week is meant to be nice weather; so fingers crossed. Hugs to you. Have a good week ❤️
Great vlog again , far more entertaining than anything on TV . Really hope you can get up as far as Skipton . Loved going on holidays up there from here in South Wales .
Aww thank you Wyn, glad you enjoy them. We have everything crossed but may have to turn when we get to Gargrave. Hope you have a lovely week ❤️
After all the work he did, Anthony needs a much-needed vacation as we call it here in the States. Those locks are massive! Both of you get better from the surgery and respiratory problems. I live in Washington State on the eastern side and we've had a lot of wind and having asthma and allergies make it worse. Today, I feel like I have a head cold!
Thanks Joyce. We have finally got to Paris. 😊: the locks were exhausting. We are both good now thank you. Aww hope you get better soon. Nothing worse. Have a great weekend ❤️
Lovely vlog ❤. What a stunning day for a cruise. Anthony you worked your socks off doing all those lock! Amazing. And cooking dinner for the invalid 😂. Seriously though I’m so glad you are healing Paul. Congratulations on all the new subscribers❤. I bet the TV show really helped people find your wonderful channel. Hope the sun is shining where you are. 34C here today!
Thanks Dawn. It was a beautiful section. I was exhausted by the end of the day. Paul is doing great thanks. The gas bubble has completely gone. We have been recognised more since the Ch4 programme. It is crazy. Your Alaskan trip looked fabulous. Hope you and Rachel are both well. Bet she missed you. Have a great week ❤️
Love seeing both of you and Dexter. Please give him extra pets from me
Thank you Ginger. Extra pets given. He is such a sweet lad. Have a great week ❤️
Bless you all 🙏 Anthony Superman 👍💪 Paul I love your vlogs, be patient with your eye 👁️ Dexter, love him ❤️🐾🐾
Thank you Claudia. It was a back breaking day. The bubble has now gone from Paul’s eye, which is good. Have a great week ❤️
Great vlog Anthony and Paul, lots going on. Hope you enjoyed your two weeks not travelling. What are tumbled spuds? Am curious. Have a good week. ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thanks Katelyn. We had a lovely time just moored with friends.
www.hairybikers.com/recipes/view/hairy-bikers-healthy-cottage-pie-recipe
This is the recipe. They are essentially well seasoned roughly mashed potatoes. Have a great week ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked ahhh we call it cottage pie or shepherds pie, but not mix leeks into the potato, am going to try that. We just mixed grated cheese in and on top to give it a crusty topping. Thanks for that link. ❤️
Thank you for another lovely video!! Hard work on the locks but the scenery was beautiful!!!
Thank you Laya. It really was hard work but guess it keeps me trim. Loved our mooring, didn’t want to leave. Have a good week ❤️
yes include bickering 👍😁
😂. There is plenty of it Phil. Fortunately we rarely argue. 😊
Hi guys, another great video. Hope you managed to sort out the bent frame. You do make me laugh the way Anthony shoots a look is hilarious.😆We are heading up to Lancashire on Friday to pick up our son from Uni. I so look forward to our visits. Just love the area. Have a good weekend xx
Hey Sue. We had to pay for it to be replaced 🙄. I always say my expressions don’t hide my emotions 😂. Aww, enjoy Lancashire. It is a beautiful part of the country. Enjoy the time with your son. ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked Thank you xx
'Cracking'...... just love it. We are only holiday boaters (for the last 40 years) but we love to keep up with you vlogers. You all show us places we haven't yet seen and may like to try. Keep up the good work and above all ENJOY every day. 👍🍻🍾🥂
Glad you are enjoying the vlogs. We did the same before we got our boat and we also watch specific vlogs of an area if we are going there and haven’t done it before. We love boat life. Have a fabulous week ❤️
Great that you can at least do a magic show now. Has the sight retuned then? Anthony, you are looking good! such a difference since I started watching - well done! *hugs* to you both...oh and Dexter too of course! 🙂
The gas bubble has gone now but the sight is now different. He has an appointment at the end of the month to see if anything else is needed. Aww thank you, I have really been trying to tone up and lose weight. I feel loads better. Hugs to you and have a lovely week ❤️
Brilliant video 👏 Have a fab weekend and give Dexter a massive hug from me 😁❤🥰🐕
Thanks Robert. Glad you enjoyed. Hugs given. Have a fab week ❤️
❤❤❤DEAR Paul Anthony and Dexter wonderful to see you 3. Looked like lovely weather and good for cruising. Not to mention I am having potatoes for dinner as well. hope all stays well and the weather fair😊. Scratches for Dexter from Florida.😊
Weather was incredible at the time of filling Susan. Not so much now. Mmm enjoy your dinner. Raining now but hoping for a nicer week. ❤️
Hi Anthony and Paul. Those locks looked a little bit tight. Shame you damaged the frame. That sounded like a nice meal that you prepared 🥰 Take care. Nick
Hey Nick. They were tight. Can’t believe the frame 😬. That was an expensive mistake. The meal was delish. Hope you are well and having a good weekend ❤️
💜💙💚 Weren't the northern lights phenomenal. Lovely video. Oh and to see Dexter having his best with you two. 🤗
They were. So lucky to have seen them. Love Dexter. Have a good week ❤️
Another wonderful video. Such glorious scenery. Anthony, take care of that chest infection! Nasty buggers those.
Thank you Leann. Glad you enjoyed. They really are. As an asthmatic, I am more prone to them. All good now though thank you .
Have a lovely week ❤️
Your a goodboy 😊 Anthony take care both of you be safe & have a brilliant weekend 😊 ❤
Thank you Linda. It was a back breaking day. Take care and have a lovely week ❤️
Great vlog as always. Your'e very welcome re Dexters gift - lovely Dexter
Aww thanks Dawn. Glad you enjoyed. It was so kind re Dexter’s gift. People’s generosity never ceases to amaze us. Thanks again and have a lovely week ❤️
Morning Guys. Great video as always. Just noticed that Watt Way is in your final video outro 🤣🥰🥰
Aww thank you. Glad you enjoyed Never noticed that. Will have to have a re look 😂. Hope you are good. ♥️
Hi guys hope you are all well.
Was that your old boat in the background at the end of the video
Hey. No, that was Hakuna Matata. Very similar colour though. Have a lovely weekend ❤️
Super video as always, love Dexter. Lost my little 13 year old Pug on April 27th. Miss her very much, she loved going on boating and fishing trips.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed. So sorry to hear about your fur baby. I can only imagine the heartache. Hope you have a lovely week. Hugs from us all. ❤️
Afternoon guys
Great to see you in a beautiful area, approx 15/20 mins from me. I walk the dog a lot around there. Looking good the pair of you and Dexter plodding on. Enjoy the weekend. X
Hey guys.
Hope you are all recovered now. Seems to be quite rife at moment. Aww thank you. Dexter is still plodding bless him. Have a lovely week ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked thanks guys, but I am still not fully recovered. X
Oh no. Hope it isn’t too long Bill ❤️
Had Covid over week ago. Just rough from it now. Thanks x@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked
What a lovely mooring spot you found stunning there. You two and Dexter are what we say living your best life ☺️ as you should as you deserve to. Weather looked great too. Take care❤
Hey Judith. It was stunning. We always say we think Dexter is living his best life. We love life on water. Weather was lovely. Have a great week ❤️
I love seeing real life, bicker away, I just laugh at it. ❤️ Beautiful spot you were moored at, the boat was blended right in with all the green. Poor Dexter, he looks like his joints are giving him a hard time, he does well to get out and about though🥰. I’m curious about the recipe you were making Anthony, we love our tatties so always looking for a new way to make them.
We’re having a rainy day which is well needed, we haven’t had much since the first of May and the ground was getting pretty dry. Because we live surrounded by trees , fire is always a worry so I’m happy for rain. 🤞
My weekend is watching Season 3 of Bridgeton, listening to a book series while sewing a dress, listening to a couple of newer favourite performers who have recently put out albums . Check out Teddy Swims “ Lose Control” my fav song of his so far. Also Shaboozy , fav. Song is “ A Bar Song , Tipsy” which just makes you want to have a couple shots of Jack Daniel’s whisky and dance. 💃🏼😂.
Take care, have fun, look after Dexter and each other🥰🙋🏼♀️
Hey Dawn. Yep, guess all couples have their differences. We can definitely see Dexter aging at it breaks my heart, bless him. He does amazingly well.
If you google Hairy Dieters Cottage Pie with Tumbled Spuds, you should find it, very tasty.
We have been the same with the weather. It has been shocking.
We have also started watching Bridgeton.
Will check out the new artists. Sound fun.
Hope you have a lovely week ❤️
Another glorious day out with you three, lovely ❤❤❤
Thank you Colin. Love to you. ❤️
Cannot wait to see Skipton. Enjoyed the video.
Thank you. Love Skipton. Hope we can get that far. Have a lovely week ❤️
I find you two bickering [ but really it's bantering!] really quite amusing. It's real so please include it. Edited to ask - what are Tumble spuds? How do you make them & how do you serve them?
Thanks Debra. We like to keep it real. I don’t care how much a couple get on, everyone has disagreements.
Tumbled spuds are par boiled with butter and pepper. Usually used go on top of mince beef like a cottage pie. (Google Hairy Dieters Cottage pie with tumbled spuds 👍) have a great weekend ❤️
Fabulous! On both counts. Thanks for the recipe tip. I'll be giving that a try.
Great vlog. Love Dexter, you are so fortunate to have had him with you for 16 and a half years! 💙
Enjoy your cruising and keep cooking those wonderful meals Anthony 👍
I would love them, but hubby won't eat anything minced, fussy eater 🙃
Thanks Jan. We know we are so lucky. He is such a gentle soul.
Glad you like my meals. Aww, your husband doesn’t know what he is. Missing. Have a fab weekend ❤️
By the time you get this you've probably got back from Paris, I'm so envious. Thank you for this week's episode very enjoyable. The best to the three of you . Paul I'm so glad your eye is improving, as an artist and magician it must have been very worrying for you. Lots of love 💖Stephen.
Hey Stephen. Last day today. Or has been great. Glad you enjoyed the vlog. He has a checkup this month so fingers crossed. Has a lovely weekend and take care ❤️
So good to see your eye looking much better Paul, and Anthony taking care of you, I think we all need an Anthony in our life's, saying that you do compliment each other.
Anthony not sure how much weight you've lost but your looking in great shape, no wonder doing locks, cooking, and then riding the bike to the car, I was shattered just watching you.😂
How lovely of those people to leave a gift for Dexter, he has know idea how famous he his.
Take care of yourselves and Dexter, have a good week.
Thanks Christine. Glad Paul’s eye is now on the mend.
I have lost 1 1/2 stone since last year and feel loads better for it. The locks and cycling definitely help compliment the gym too.
It really was so kind of them to leave Dexter a pressie. He is just the sweetest. Have a lovely weekend ❤️
So nice to see a sunny day Anthony really worked hard. I really enjoy your vlogs because you don't play background music it is not something which would stop me watching because boat time plays music but I love them two and Rufus but I do prefer no music xxxx
The weather was fab Pamela. It was a hard day with all those locks. We don’t often put background music on. Only when the wind noise is too bad. Glad you enjoy the vlogs. Have a lovely week ❤️
Hi Paul, Anthony and wonderful Dexter wow what a beautiful place you’re moored at, Anthony, you are really burnt please wear a broad rim hat , here in Australia, we have more melanomas in skin cancer in the world and I always wear a bucket hat which covers your ears. Anyway keep up the good work. Really appreciate you both Cliff from Australia
Hey Cliff. I definitely need to find a hat. Not come across anything suitable yet. I do use sun protection through. Glad you enjoy the vlogs. Have a lovely week ❤️
Thanks for a lovely vlog, the places you get to moor up are astounding, you really can pick them. Shame about the pram frame but I am sure it would straighten out with the correct percussive maintenance tool ( hammer) after all, it was once a straight piece of bar. 🤗☮️
Hey Crichie. We really have been blessed with some beautiful moorings. Unfortunately, the bar had to be repurchased 😬. We attempted a rubber mallet and got it sort of straight but it needed to be precise for our new covers. All good now though.
Hope you have a great weekend ♥️
Leeds Liverpool locks are meant for 58ft boats. Any longer should go in solo slightly diagonally.
Hey Ian. We didn’t have any trouble with the boat, just the overhanging frame of the pram cover that sat proud of the button. The boat sits fine in the locks.
Stunning area! I love Anthony so glad he is looking after you, Paul!! What is tumble spuds? X
Hey Jacki. It was beautiful. Aww thank you. Paul would do the same for me. www.hairybikers.com/recipes/view/hairy-bikers-healthy-cottage-pie-recipe
This is the recipe. Have a great week ❤️
So delightful to watch. More bickering please! 😂
Thank you 😂. Have a lovely week ❤️
Not a good place to lose concentration - in a lock! Our canopy frame is like yours and sticks out the back when not in use. In a lock we always lift it over our heads and have it facing forwards. Loved the video
Lesson learnt. We started taking it off. Amtrim, who have done our new covers, have designed a foot for us so it keep it upright and doesn’t sit proud of the button. Have a lovely week ❤️
Dont like it when you get all these comments,so many and after reading them,they have said everything I wanted to say,so I wont bore you with same things,just leaves me to say,Thanks for a great vlog again
😂. Sorry. We still like comments. Glad you enjoyed the vlog. Have a lovely weekend ❤️
Hi lovelies what is tumble potatoes please and look forward to the next episode lizzy bulgaria x
Hey Lizzy. Here is a link to the recipe. It is essentially roughly mashed potatoes.

Hi Both....How is your new propeller doing? I have recently come across a relatively new design of propellers which are supposed to make significant improvement in performance even at low speed (as in a narrowboat). They are toroidal propellers. Supposed to be quieter, significantly improve performance, significantly reduce cavitation, and do NOT require significantly more engine power to turn the propeller. If you still having problems, it might be worth investigating.
Hey James. It is definitely a massive improvement. We can feel the difference, especially when trying to stop. I will google the propeller you mention though, sounds interesting. Hope you have a great week ❤️
Please let Dexter know that I understand how difficult it is to be both an icon AND a sex symbol.
😂. I will. It must be really tough 😂. Have a good weekend ❤️
"60' narrowboat up the Johnson" ...uhmm OUCH?
😂. Why didn’t we think of that title ❤️
Well there you go we did see the northern Lights Down in the south west Dart moor . A lot of people did go the next night as they did think it would happen again. But no they did miss the lights,
They certainly were John. Incredible to see. We tried again the next night but nothing here either. Hope you have a lovely weekend ❤️
Lovely to see the Northern lights. Did you say "tumble spuds"? Looked nice from what I could see. Have a good week and a pat for Dexter
Hey John. We never thought we would get to see them from the boat. Just amazing. I did say tumbled spuds. They were delish. Hope you enjoy the week ahead ❤️ .
Thanks for the great vlogs
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed ❤️
I'm also jealous of your weather. It's grey, windy & cold (12 degrees) in Aberdeenshire
Not great anymore Deborah. Been raining non stop! Have a lovely weekend ❤️
Great to see that your eye seems to be much better, Paul. BTW, those lovely bluebells are much rarer here in Germany, but we happen to live close to one of the few places where they blossom in the wild in a small wood. Always a great destination for a photo trip during the season.
He is definitely getting their Klaus. I love bluebells. The smell of them at their peak is incredible. I bet you get some great pictures of them. Didn’t realise they were fairly rare in Germany. Have a great week ❤️
Oh bless little Dexter! I cherish every day with my little Dolly Dog ❤
Us too. He is such a sweet soul. Hope you are keeping well Liam. X
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked all good thanks lads, just wish this bloody weather would make up its mind! Where’s summer!!?? 😂🫣❤️
Couldn’t agree more 😂 x
I hope you got to taste that well deserved Cider Anthony. Best wishes to you all.
Have a great weekend. Steven ❤️
I lost certainly did Steven. Tasted so much better after all those locks. Have a great weekend too ❤️
Get Dexter a coach when it’s a long walk for him….
Hey Toni. He won’t go in one. We tried him in a trolley bless him. He was straight out. We tend not to take him on long walks anymore. It is just too much for him. Hope you have a lovely week ❤️
Hey guys I have been watching for a while know and just enjoyed the your content. I would like to see more issues and the problems you face daily as it seems your trips are all yippee but we all know life is not like that. I hope this makes sense
Hey Alan. It does make sense and we have shown the downside to boating. But recently, there have t been any moments like that, which is good. Hope you have a fab week and we will definitely show mishaps as and when they arise. ❤️
That was a great video guys. The scenery was amazing and I really enjoyed the cruise with you. Thanks for sharing your adventures and much love to the gorgeous Captain Dexter. BTW Anthony ... what are 'tumbled potatoes'??
Thanks Louise. Thanks for coming along with us. Tumbled spuds is essentially seasoned potatoes that are lightly mashed so still chunky. It ia a hairy dieters recipe. Have a lovely week ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked Thank you Anthonyxx
Hey. Anthony did you get the pram bar fixed. Have a lovely weekend.
Hi Timothy. We did. It was an expensive trip 🙄. We have recently changed our pram covers and Amtrim have put a leg on either side to raise the bar to stop that from happening again. Have a great weekend too ❤️
Great blog as usual so look forward to watching you guys 😊, love to dexter xxx
Thanks Catherine. Glad you enjoyed. Dexter is flat out bless him. Have a good week ❤️
Time for a cup of tea and a lie down Anthony? 😀
Absolutely Craig. Or a nice glass of cider 😉. Have a good weekend ❤️
Just love how quiet it is when you move away from bank 😊 you have my dream boat 😊 price of a small two bedroom house no doubt but worth it I feel. Dexter pottering about more slowly than former years but he looks content and probably happier than if you in a big house and needed to leave him most of day to work full time to pay a mortgage.
Hey Lisa. He definitely is living his best life. It breaks my heart to see his inevitable aging but he is loved. Have a great week ❤️
@@NarrowboatLifeUnlocked 😊
I think that eye needs to get better to let Anthony start driving the boat again, keep it in one piece 😂😉
😂. Couldn’t agree more David. ❤️
Another great video, thank you guys for bringing us along x
Thanks Sandra and thanks for coming along with us. Have a lovely weekend ❤️
