Absolutely love you guys. You're not afraid to be open. We get some good laughs. And I love that you openly talk about mental health. Keep up the good work.
Who are the 66 that didn't like this vid? Every vid I've ever watched was well edited, funny (Shaun plays the best Strait Man) for Colin's antics, and filled with all sorts of canal informational tid-bits. You guys keep posting and I'll (and my husband) will keep watching.
Stumble across this channel on RUclips what a perfect tonic you both are!! the perfect antidote ''from whatever this all turns to be'' sending you both oodles of respect and appreciation from the cluster of Canarian islands
Hello from North Carolina USA! The two of you together on a fantastic journey brings warmth to my heart, in addition to having something to watch other than COVID or politics. I have absolutely enjoyed watching every video. The visual scenery gives me a feeling that I am riding along. Thank you very much for sharing your experiences. Im curious if Shawn will eventually be sending invitations to subscribers for a "Hyacinth Bucket riparian entertainment" this spring? (minus the water dredging scene). Again, I really enjoy the videos. Well done!
I'm recovering from my latest heart attack and it still hurts when I laugh you bad buggers! Laughed a lot tonight, brilliantly presented and Mrs C photo bombing you was brilliant. Keep up the great presenting. Smiffyx
I’ve only just ‘found ‘ you and wanted to thank both of you for your honesty and cheerfulness. I shall certainly go back over your vlogs. Take care, God bless.
I can't tell you just how much happiness the two of you laughing and loving life gives me. I truly enjoy watching your videos (and outtakes of course) to share in your adventures. Thank you both so much for sharing it with us. God Bless!
One episode to go then I'm caught up. Love you guys you're both such a tonic. Hang in there Colin I've suffered with mental health for years been practically housebound with it for 20 years now. Just know from one MHS to another your videos are keeping me happy the scenery is amazing especially for someone who can't go out. Keep posting and love to you both 👍🐶💙💙
We live in south FL and your kind of boating is so much more relaxing then ours. BTW keep laughing Shaun, it's infectious and a pleasure to hear. Really enjoy watching your channel.
We traveled around the states full time in an RV for years and loved it. Typically spent 3 weeks in one spot and then moved on to the next. I 've wished many times, since finding the narrowboat vlogs, that we had canals in the states. I'd be on the water in a heartbeat.
Oh that was entertaining, informative and fun. Thanks fellas. There was some great music too. Without being too gushing, you two make my Friday evenings.
Last year on a caravan site, I was awoken by the couple in the adjacent pitch 'hoovering' at early o'clock in the morning. It sounded like they were struggling to push it mind you, the amount of moaning they were doing. Carpets must have been filthy, it took them bloody ages! I can do mine in a couple of minutes! Brilliant vlog, I think that's the first time I've seen Shaun blush! Take care guys, stay safe & have a great week.
Haven't been good lately and the laugh fest of pronunciation nightmare plus all of Shaun's laughter (yours too Colin) has given me a least a short time of joy. For that I thank you guys immensely.
Thank you for being genuine, honest and hilarious!! The worlds a better place because you two are in it! Just thank god neither one of you had a twin! Lmao. Keep them coming gents. You make my day!
Dear C&S, I know it's a bad time to ask a question after the Q&A session has just finished but I was soaking in my "hot bath" in Cyprus watching your great video and a few thoughts came to mind. 1 Thank you for limiting the in program ads. It's so annoying having to keep drying your hands. 2 As I intend permanently living in a motorhome sometime soon, I'm sure that I will miss having a bath. 3 As for rocking in the shower whilst rubbing the inside of your toes, being alone makes it difficult with the arthritis, but for years, my Thai g/f saved me from turning into a vampire by getting the clippers out. In return, I let her get her nails painted in different designs every time. 4 A couple of years ago, I slept in some trees off the toe path near to Macclesfield in a hammock with a tarp to keep the rain out. It was so nice. My question is Q1. If a sodden, disheveled old tramp (me) stood 5m away from your boat shouting "Collin, Shaun", would you: A. Do nothing? B. Pop your head out of the port hole and say "Hello stranger, you look like you need a cup of tea and a nice piece of Shaun's cake" C. Shout piss off and call the police? D. Start the engines and disappear under the nearest tunnel at warp 9? I'd still love you guys, whatever you did.
You know its not just the high quality of production, your presentation or even the historical interest which keeps me watching your channel, but also the intellectual stimulus. I had never considered nocturnal matrimonial activity (I appreciate it doesn't have to be nocturnal or matrimonial) and vacuuming within the same thought. Obviously you have to be careful not to mix up partners, vacuuming with a loved one is probably not efficient and you could do yourself a nasty injury in bed with a vacuum cleaner, especially an upright. Keep vlogging.
That has to be the most I have laughed this year so far , if you could bottle you two it would sell like hot cakes . Thank you so much not for just answering the question but for making fun to watch . I love the fact that Otis was in so many shots as well . Stay safe and cant wait till next week send hugs and x
Loved the Dr and your nether regions, ruffling his hair. The old boy walking the dog had just had his tussocks tussled and then the Bloke then trying to sort his nits out. There was the bike thief that Colin chased wearing next to nothing down a tow path...... Keep rocking the boat. 👍🏻
A great one for laughs! The info is great too, but secondary for me. You two are such a special couple...loads of fun you are. Grateful you're willing to share.
Best one yet. You two are fantastic. One thing I find is that when you are on the boat people talk to you all the time. Then when I'm in town I still talk to strangers. My girlfriend thinks I'm strange but I don't have an answer cos I'm pretty sure she's right. Thanks agai. 😊
I only found your podcasts about a week ago and I have been binge watching them, I suffer from a mental illness that prevents me from going out so I understand how you feel, I love the honesty and I love your dog, I cried when you cried god bless you both 💜
I am not sure why this came up on my YT feed as I have no interest in narrowboats or indeed living on any kind of boat but since the first video appeared I have watched your travels and I have to say thank you, they mostly cheer me up and are very informative, you guys have a great dynamic going on and are clearly very good together!
This is my favourite RUclips channel ever. I was subscribed a while ago and somehow found myself unsubscribed for a while. I had (and still have) no idea how I did it, but am just so so glad I got you boys back!!! Truly you are a breath of fresh air in my life and as I am also adult ADHD and on the spectrum, I so know where you are coming from and love your videos. Colin is the biggest sweetheart and you two together make me smile everyday as I binge watch your videos. Thank you for all the time and effort AND research you put into each video. It is truly appreciated, as are you. Also, I love living vicariously through you 🤗. Adventure time with the boys! Sending lots of love and 2 great big covid free air hugs to you from Caloundra on the Sunshine Coast in QLD Australia. 👋❤
Hey guys. I’m not sure why, but the RUclips algorithms decided to introduce me to your channel. I’m so glad it did! I love the banter between you and the accents. Who knew that there was no t in wa er. Keep posting and thanks for the fun.
Thank you once again for a good laugh and really interesting facts about life on a narrowboat. You are so fortunate to be living this life and thank you for sharing some of it with the world. Looking forward to the next one. Have a great week.
I love it when you two are so engaging on such a multitude of information. Well done. Enjoyed it so much, keep up the great work and be safe out there. Hugs to you both and one for Otis.
Another great video Colin and Sean. You two are such great ambassadors for canal travel, I am finding all your vlogs entertaining. Always lots of information, great senses of humour from both of you. Keep doing what you do guys. Happy travels Nick.
I'm from Australia and I love your long boat videos. I binge watch them. We don't have canals and I am just so envious of your lives on the beautiful and scenic canals. Wow what a beautiful boat the Silver Fox is.👍
Another crack boys. We bought our 65ft beauty in Oct last year with the sole intention of living full time on her, what with lockdown 2 and 3 we've only just been able to make the move onboard 2 weeks ago, albeit marina dwellers due to work, loving every minute so far. Foxes Afloat have been a massive part of that journey and education, been watching pretty much from when you started, and can't wait for 4 o'clock on a thursday now. Always impressed by the production quality you both put into your vids. Tea would have been spat out everywhere this week, soooo funny, great to see Shaun back on full form
Your giggles are infectious! What a delight to be a part of your channel. I look forward to Fridays to see you both. Thanks much for sharing your adventures with us!
I’d never heard of winter canal closures until finishing you guys during lockdown. I was on the way to a job today in Stroud and saw that the locks on the Gloucestershire canal were being renovated. Everyday is a school day. Thank you both for giving me some entertainment during the lockdowns
Bonkers! Bonkers! Bonkers! with your curly hair and all. Lovely Otis is getting pretty brave and daring on the back of the boat (OK stern!!) Love and hugs as always.
Yes it was a bit worrying watching Shaun after the break when he (and Colin) was ill. He seemed to lose his spark for a few vlogs, but so relieved to see him falling about laughing again.
The old girl at the end could become a permanent member of staff. One of those one frame additions to each vlog. Not sure you're allowed to do that. Plays with the mind. Great vlog. Had me in stitches. Cheers.
Great Videos, always look forward to Fridays. Was that Edwina Curry photo bombing you in the out takes? ha ha, the circles you move in, going up in the world!
You two are just "too" much. This was a very funny vlog with many not so subtle innuendos. I agree about the close quarters and the relationship "cracks". The scenery was beautiful , the photography wonderful! Keep on having fun, you make my Fridays.
Your boat always looks so beautiful--is it like taking care of a car? How often do you do things like scrub the outside down or polish it, and do the canvas covers need special care?
Good Question and answer blog. Now that Otis is full grown, I see he is at times without the tram sides. In one shot the boat was about a foot from the grassy bank and he was watching it go by, does he sometimes take the liberty of stepping off the boat? Does he like swimming?
Love the video and when Shaun starts to laugh, then Colin joins in, it becomes a laugh fest for all. Truly, a great vlog and thanks for showing many shots of Otis in action guys!
Otis is becoming quite the handsome young man, but I'm always afraid he is going to jump or just go ass over tipoff into the water. Good to see you guys weathering the storm!
you two are the high point of my Fridays, I always get a good laugh and you make my day seem better no matter how my work day went. Please keep up the good work.
2 parts I nearly chocked on my drink at were 1- rocking the boat whilst the hoover is “sucking” and trying to say Carly hayre 😂😂 yous two crack me up thanks for the video guys stay safe
You both are the most WONDERFUL people!! Always positive, always laughing and always supporting each other!! I say this after every video, but THIS one is the BEST ONE YET!!! ❤️❤️
Wonderful information for anyone considering full time cruising. Hire a boat, more than just a weekend, more than just once and make sure it's right or at least has the possibility of being a good fit. The Rideau Canal over here in Canada has some legit requirements to operate a motorized boat safely and with a modicum of skill: You need to get and pass a license and exam. However our season is at best six or seven months. The whole canal freezes over each winter, part of it being the longest skating rink the world, going through downtown Ottawa and out to the suburbs.
You can't be in a bad mood after watching your vlogs. Every minute watching you guys is a joy.
Aww, thanks, Bill! x
These guys brighten up the day for sure. They're great way to start a Friday...
It's real comfort tv
Not spilling one's wine when being mounted by another boat is a sign of being a true professional :-)
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Professional boater, sailor or just boozer?
A trick: you can watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Layne Lane yup, I've been using flixzone} for years myself =)
Shaun's laugh never fails to cheer me up. Have a lovely weekend guys.
You too 👍🏻💜
29 years together! Fantastic lads.
Thank you so much, Andrew!
Shaun's laugh is so infectious and Colin's history talks are so fascinating. Thanks lads.
Our pleasure, Carol!
Oh my, watching you two getting the giggles made me laugh. You're better then an antidepressent, give Otis a cuddle, he's grown so much
😂👍🏻💜
Shaun’s laugh should be prescribed - it’s infectious 😂😂😂
Just like his rash!
"If this boats a rockin" don't bother us we're HOOVERING! Great laugh. Have a great week.
😂😂😂
Absolutely love you guys. You're not afraid to be open. We get some good laughs. And I love that you openly talk about mental health. Keep up the good work.
It should be illegal for you two to have so much fun... I love listening to your laughter..
🤣
Who are the 66 that didn't like this vid? Every vid I've ever watched was well edited, funny (Shaun plays the best Strait Man) for Colin's antics, and filled with all sorts of canal informational tid-bits. You guys keep posting and I'll (and my husband) will keep watching.
Hehe! We can't please everyone. Our channel average is 99.3% which we're more than happy with 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I’m sure that was Edwina Curry photobombing you at the end! Great vlog as usual guys. I was crying with laughter!
It was Edwina. She's a fan of the channel and wanted to meet us 👍🏻
Just watched the vlog and thought that as well. Headed straight for the comments to see if anyone thought so.
Outtakes? I thought that the whole lot was an outtake - top episode guys - regards to Matt !
It kinda was 😂
Stumble across this channel on RUclips what a perfect tonic you both are!! the perfect antidote ''from whatever this all turns to be'' sending you both oodles of respect and appreciation from the cluster of Canarian islands
Wow, thank you!
Sultry tone: "Darling, care to hoover tonight?" LOLOL..."Don't rock the boat baby, rock the boat....."...you guys are SO fun:))
😂😂😂

I'm recovering from my latest heart attack and it still hurts when I laugh you bad buggers! Laughed a lot tonight, brilliantly presented and Mrs C photo bombing you was brilliant. Keep up the great presenting. Smiffyx
She's such a sport!
I’ve only just ‘found ‘ you and wanted to thank both of you for your honesty and cheerfulness. I shall certainly go back over your vlogs. Take care, God bless.
Welcome aboard!
I laughed from start to finish. What a tonic you two are.
I am amazed how you managed to get Edwina Currie to photo bomb you at the end.
😅🤣😂🤭
She’s a fan of our channel and wanted to meet us and have a cameo appearance in a vlog so we arranged it 😉
I can't tell you just how much happiness the two of you laughing and loving life gives me. I truly enjoy watching your videos (and outtakes of course) to share in your adventures. Thank you both so much for sharing it with us. God Bless!

Back to my regular Sunday morning viewing slot...
OMG! I laughed so much I nearly wet the bed!!
Brilliant 🤣 start to my day thank you 😊
Second line... Welcome to Shaun's world.
You two crack me up. Never has a Q&A be so darn funny.
Aww, cheers, Jan!
Oh that was entertaining, informative and fun. Thanks fellas. There was some great music too. Without being too gushing, you two make my Friday evenings.
Aww thanks, Paul!
As a Yank all I can say is “way to go guys. You hit a home run with this one.” Thanks for your good work.
I appreciate that!
Colin, your videography and editing is great and getting better with each post. Nicely done and great fun.
Glad you enjoyed it
Humour on the canal, my goodness you both were absolutely hilarious, you bring a light of sunshine in all our lives 🥰
Oh thank you!

Glad we could make you laugh xx
Thank you for being genuine, honest and hilarious!! The worlds a better place because you two are in it! Just thank god neither one of you had a twin! Lmao. Keep them coming gents. You make my day!
Thank you so much, James!!
I love that the whole world can come across your videos & be massively cheered up plus see how beautiful the English countryside is. 🙇♂️
Always welcome! x
Sat here with my Friday Foxes grin on again. Shaun's laugh gets me every time. Fantastic cameo from Edwina. See you next week. Stay safe 🤗
You too, Peter!

😂😂😂😂 All in a day! 😂😂😂😂
Thank you for sending this ray of sunshine to my eye balls. i have smiled so much watching this tonight.
Our pleasure!
23:48 Wow! You have Edwina Currie amongst your fans. That's pretty impressive.
Is it? 😂

Hey guys. I’m not sure why, but the RUclips algorithms decided to introduce me to your channel. I’m so glad it did!
I love the banter between you and the accents. Who knew that there was no t in wa er.
Keep posting and thanks for the fun.
Welcome aboard!
Yeah you guys and Edwina you have to get her in a vlog. You are all such individual characters. Thanks for making me smile 😍😍
Haha! That's as much as we're doing together for now 😂
Best laugh I have had all week.
Loved the scenery, music and your great rare wit.
As I have said before, the BBC should hire you pair.
Hehe! They’ve asked but we like things as they are 👍🏻
in the Outtakes wasn't that Edwina Currie?
It was. She’s a fan of the channel 👍🏻
What a great insight into narrow boat living. Thanks.
Our pleasure!
YOu guys are killing me....LMAO. Fingers running through the docs hair....I snorted.
😂
Thank you once again for a good laugh and really interesting facts about life on a narrowboat. You are so fortunate to be living this life and thank you for sharing some of it with the world. Looking forward to the next one. Have a great week.
Glad you enjoyed it
I love it when you two are so engaging on such a multitude of information. Well done. Enjoyed it so much, keep up the great work and be safe out there. Hugs to you both and one for Otis.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great video Colin and Sean. You two are such great ambassadors for canal travel, I am finding all your vlogs entertaining. Always lots of information, great senses of humour from both of you. Keep doing what you do guys. Happy travels Nick.
Thanks, Nick!
"Hello Mrs Duck. Are you on your own..." I think Shaun's been on one of our holidays! We love talking to wildlife
🤣
Great video again boys, a great laugh and very relaxing to watch the scenery flow past, well done.
Thanks 👍
We've been together for 29 years..... some picturs follow....You guys sure are a lovely couple, love ya !!!
Aww, thanks!

Alternate Vlog title: “Honest questions made awkward”. 😆😆😆 especially that first one
😅
Well done video with interesting questions and scenery
Thank you, Richard! x
Got the dreaded Covid 19 last week and the laughter this episode generated was much needed..! Thanks both.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your giggles are infectious! What a delight to be a part of your channel. I look forward to Fridays to see you both. Thanks much for sharing your adventures with us!
Thank you so much!
Just found your channel in my feed and I have binge watching ever since. You guys are awesome, keep up the great content! Subscribed
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks for the close up of my newly painted "The Sundowner" ... 😄
It looks stunning!
@@FoxesAfloat just got to put the inside back together now!
When the boats rocking,don't come knocking !!
We're hoovering !???
🤣👍🏻
You are both absolutely adorable. These videos are such an enjoyable oasis of joy in an otherwise hectic world.
Thank you!
Lots of laughter,great medicine especially in these times .Thank you guys.
Glad you enjoyed it
Another great video - loved your baby pics from early coupledom !
💜
Fantastic editing on these videos, very enjoyable to watch.... Perfect, lots of work !!
Thank you very much!
Thanks so much for the laugh, you guys are fantastic.
Thanks so much! 👍🏻💜
I’d never heard of winter canal closures until finishing you guys during lockdown.
I was on the way to a job today in Stroud and saw that the locks on the Gloucestershire canal were being renovated.
Everyday is a school day. Thank you both for giving me some entertainment during the lockdowns
That is awesome!
Bonkers! Bonkers! Bonkers! with your curly hair and all. Lovely Otis is getting pretty brave and daring on the back of the boat (OK stern!!) Love and hugs as always.
Thank you! 😊
It's really nice to see Shaun back on full form after being ill.
It really is 😂💜
Yes it was a bit worrying watching Shaun after the break when he (and Colin) was ill. He seemed to lose his spark for a few vlogs, but so relieved to see him falling about laughing again.
You two are awesome, stay safe
You too, David!
You always make me laugh so hard!!! You can't say that!! Love to you both! Great job and thanks!!
😊 thank you
The old girl at the end could become a permanent member of staff. One of those one frame additions to each vlog. Not sure you're allowed to do that. Plays with the mind. Great vlog. Had me in stitches. Cheers.
The 'old girl' is one of our ex MP's and ministers 😂
Sean is your perfect straight man!! I love his hearty laugh!! Makes me chuckle right along with him!!
😂💜👍🏻
Great Videos, always look forward to Fridays. Was that Edwina Curry photo bombing you in the out takes? ha ha, the circles you move in, going up in the world!
Yep! She's a big fan 👍🏻
Great editing!
Glad you think so!
Rocking with the motion. You’ve just made a crap day seem funny I can’t stop laughing thank you.
Any time!
I choked on my tea. Lol
You two are just "too" much. This was a very funny vlog with many not so subtle innuendos. I agree about the close quarters and the relationship "cracks". The scenery was beautiful , the photography wonderful! Keep on having fun, you make my Fridays.
Thank you so much!!
I really enjoyed this vlog. Nice to know about the challenges of living on a boat. I especially enjoyed the pictures of both of you through the years.
Aww thanks!
Your boat always looks so beautiful--is it like taking care of a car? How often do you do things like scrub the outside down or polish it, and do the canvas covers need special care?
We clean the boat once a week and treat the canvas twice a year 👍🏻
Otis’s little side eye at about 1:02 is the cutest! “Daddy, why is Dad kissing me so much?” 😆
Yeah, he looked like an embarrassed kid! 😂
Good Question and answer blog. Now that Otis is full grown, I see he is at times without the tram sides. In one shot the boat was about a foot from the grassy bank and he was watching it go by, does he sometimes take the liberty of stepping off the boat? Does he like swimming?
No, we've trained him only to step off when he's told by one of us.
Love the video and when Shaun starts to laugh, then Colin joins in, it becomes a laugh fest for all. Truly, a great vlog and thanks for showing many shots of Otis in action guys!
Glad you enjoyed it
Enjoying our channel. Hugs from Canada
Thanks so much!
Otis is becoming quite the handsome young man, but I'm always afraid he is going to jump or just go ass over tipoff into the water. Good to see you guys weathering the storm!
Ah, he's been in a couple of times. Doesn't hurt him and he learns for next time 👍🏻
HAHAHA..never realised a story about hoovering could be so funny!
Keep up the great work guys.
Thank you 🤗

Yet another very entertaining and informative episode. Anybody would think you enjoyed doing them. My god was that Edwina Currie photo bombing.
Yeah, she's a big fan of the channel and wanted a cameo appearance 👍🏻
Was that Edwina Currie photo bombing at the end? That was a fright!
It was! She’s a fan of our channel and wanted to meet us and have a cameo appearance in a vlog so we arranged it 😉
You both are the most WONDERFUL people!! Always positive, always laughing and always supporting each other!! I say this after every video, but THIS one is the BEST ONE YET!!! ❤️❤️
Hehe... Thank you! 😂
Wonderful information for anyone considering full time cruising. Hire a boat, more than just a weekend, more than just once and make sure it's right or at least has the possibility of being a good fit. The Rideau Canal over here in Canada has some legit requirements to operate a motorized boat safely and with a modicum of skill: You need to get and pass a license and exam. However our season is at best six or seven months. The whole canal freezes over each winter, part of it being the longest skating rink the world, going through downtown Ottawa and out to the suburbs.
