My husband and I really enjoy your journeys on your boat and I find them very restful to watch before going to bed to settle me down. In our youth we had a small Shetland and we enjoyed boating on Loch Lomond, The Norfolk Broads and on a few lakes in the Lake District, sometimes sleeping on board (a bit cramped), more often in our 'home from home' in our caravette which towed the boat to its different destinations sometimes adventures on our own and some with our kids. Later we got a larger boat - a Princess which seemed very posh but not as easy to take up smaller rivers for picnics where we watched dragonflies dancing and dosed in the sun. When my husband had his cancer treatment 10 years ago he spent his time while in quarentie during radiotherapy planning a sea voyage - a reminder of his days with the RNLI - from the north east coast (where we kept our boat) up the coast of Scotland and hopefully through the Caledonian canal. He was able to achieve his dream as far as Inverness though I didn't join him due to worsening arthritis but then covid locked everything down and by the time it was over he was also less able to manage the boat so regretfully we sold it. However as septogenarians we are enjoying travelling vicariously with you and look forward to seeing your next adventures. Best wishes for your next voyage.
Your videos are a true inspiration to me. Im a single man due to recent life changes, about to start a new life on the cut. I'm both excited but scared out of my mind. Watching your videos has given me a sense of reality on the water. So thanyou so much. Not only for the info but helping me switch off just for a minute.
I grew up in Rotherham, I saw quite a few bands play on that bandstand in Clifton Park. I also used to help the Lock Keeper operate Aldwarke Lock before it was Automated.
Thank you, Robie, for a most enjoyable & informative Video.Its good to be able to see new interesting parts of the country from the comfort of my home computer. The sliding bridge is awesome. Happy cruising.👍😀
It must be great to be your own man Robbie love watching you boating keep on cranking take care hope you are in stoke on Trent sometime it would be nice to meet you in person
Hi Robbie, Hope you’re doing alright on your travels. It’s great to see you’ve got another series out on TV. Good luck with it. Have a great week keep playing the music it’s good.
When you went past Waddingtons boatyard that was actually the entrance to the Dove and Dearne canal that went to Barnsley, where I think it joined a branch of the Aire and Calder from near Wakefield, by the way I went to school with Vic Waddingtons sons
BBC iplayer isn't available where I live. I was able to watch the first two series on Acorn, but here on RUclips is the only place I can watch the rest, so I'm thankful to whoever is putting them up. And I can't help thinking Robbie will benefit somehow from getting wider exposure to more people here...
Love the sound of The Naughty Lass starting up.

This is on BBC iPlayer
Robbie has viewers all over the world who don't have access to the iPlayer.
@@mikeb7117 So this is Robbie benefitting from this content being posted here? Because otherwise this is content piracy, pure and simple
@@isobelmckenzie-price8813 You're right, it is piracy. These videos are often removed for that reason.
@@isobelmckenzie-price8813 dont think Robbie posted this, he has his own RUclips channel
