    Hi Robbie
    The canal from Bielby to Cottingwith was cut by CRT contractors two weeks after your visit. The Bielby Arm is a fresh water nature reserve.
    PCAS is now hoping to open the canal as far as Coates Lock where above the top gates is a winding hole. Malcolm

    • @RobbieCumming
      @RobbieCumming  Год назад +6

      Cheers Malcolm please don’t tell anyone I tried to barge into a nature reserve 😂 On a serious note please could I request some moorings above the lock to make it more attractive to stop/turn around?

      @malcolmslater9287 Год назад +4

      Hi Robbie
      PCAS have been for several years now ready to put boat moorings in place at bridge 8. However CRT have said that they would do the job instead. We are still waiting for them to start.

    Thoroughly enjoyable. I went up this canal with the intrepid Neil Arlidge back in about 2004(?) And we did a huge amount of dredging and weed cutting on nb Ernest. A wonderful era which I miss dreadfully as Neil seems to have disappeared.

    Good to see you on that stretch. I was hoping you made it to Bielby. Decades ago, on a sports tour in the USA, I met the Bielby family, in New Jersey. I've kept in touch with them ever since, now in Texas. Their forefathers emigrated from Bielby village, and I did go years ago to take some photos for them. Since then a couple have been there for a visit to their 'ancestral' home.

    ... and lo, a boat DID appear...actually a canoe ...but still... Now that it is obvious that there is much "brass" to be made from the canals, now that they have become recreational/habitational AND, to an extent, wetland environments for not just humans, more of the old routes that were shortsightedly shut down and abandoned will be rehabilitated. I have seen a few videos about some ongoing restoration projects. more "crankage" potential for the future!

    Yes, the East Yorkshire Wolds are lovely, but it doesnt really get many tourists most people make for York or the Coast or the better known Yorkshire Dales and Moors. Its not really geared up for tourists hence why you probably found the facilities quite poor, its just and agricultual area. I used to live in the East Yorkshire Wolds so I know how nice the area is and there are nature reserves in the area too owned by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, Woodland Trust and Local Authorities. There are the lovely towns of Beverly and Howden and several Country Houses worth visiting and The Yorkshire Wolds Railway and Wolds Lavender, and several gardens too.

    That was great Robbie,enjoy your upcoming filming for the Canal boat diaries,if you pass by my lock just after the Gorilla I’ll give you the bottle of ale that was brewed there on the canal side,just started lock keeping this May after spending 35 years as an NHS Paramedic and loving the tranquil lifestyle.
    Also,at the old lock keepers cottage at my lock live a couple with two white German shepherds and the lady is an author,and she has written a book based around that lock keepers cottage and area,and the two white dogs,its for children and young adults but it’s a nice read and lots of older people enjoy it too,anyway she has signed a copy for you and if I see you pass by you can have that too.
    Have a great time at all the places you’re about to visit,all the best.

    The box that takes 300ml is the final reduction gear off the gearbox to amplify torque and reduce revs and the lh150 is the whole gearbox that gives forward neutral reverse ( of they go wrong they will always fail in ahead to get you home again! The lh150 is a lovely gearbox indeed! And nice to see you doing some maintenance lad! The reduction box has a drain okug on the bottom of the rear face for easy changes sure the lh150 does too but the memory isn't so good for that one the vacuum pumps don't get all the sludge out the bottom in my experience
    Happy cruising and looking forward to seeing more BBC work when it's released! Certainly a beautiful stretch to cruise up and the wildlife is amazing! Keep safe and keep cranking!!

    While you are in the area any plans to visit the River Ancholme Canal in North Lincs (Off the Humber at South Ferriby and runs south to beyond Brigg). I have not seen anyone vlog it yet, so you could be the first! (I've been through the lock at Ferriby a number of times decades ago, but on sailing boats that cannot got to Brigg due to mast height. Near to the Humber is it a popular place for yachties. In Brigg it is more cruisers.)

You can't get stuck that way, really, so it's less nerve wrecking :-) Also glad to see your truck is working again, brilliant! I presume MInimal List must have made it up there too ... do you have any idea how many boats come there? Even with limited moorings and services, seems like a nice place to go if you *really* want to get away from it all. Cheers!
