What surprises me is, why didn’t the previous owners keep the boat maintained. By the way, enjoyed the two of you playing and singing. In my day we said jamming, lol.
Haha we love a little jam, no he didn't look after the boat very well, it's always quite sad seeing these beautiful boats get run to the ground, she just needs a little love ,thanks Shoan
Thank you, we're actually starting to see a bit more progress which is nice, off for our blacking next week so will be nice to get the boat out for a change thanks again 😀
YEP! We Love a Bit Of MAD Crobot - I reckon Your Hinges are Knackered on those hatch doors - I get the same problem with the back door to our 'House!' (Sorry - Didn't mean to Swear!) where the Window/Door fitter 'inset' them too far 😞 ... A nice little project to increase Your DIY Knowledge though - EH?? 🙂
Haha,yes we think it must be the hinges, not quite sure how hard it will be to fix but it's another one on the list to destroy while trying to use my new found DIY skills haha
Hi to you both another entertaining vlog. Chris, I did notice that that when you knocked your mooring pin it was angled towards the nb . I once pegged an awning down not thinking the angle mattered , how wrong I was🤦♂️. It’s brilliant how you always (?) manage to keep smiling. Take care!
yes it wasn't put in right at all, just a quick panic stump.haha were going to have to up our game these next weeks as we head out for a few weeks on the river to get the boat up to backing, exciting stuff thanks for sticking with us through all the madness :)
Hi Becca Chris,well you are getting there,still lots of things to do I guess,Becca you are pretty good at your woodwork wear did you learn it from ,Chris you are still good at doing nothing productive lol 😝 when did you say your having the boat lifted at Fox’s Marina are you worried about it must admit I am so sorry to say ,your both work so hard I truly hope you get there in the end ,till next time take care keep yourself safe,John 😂😝🙏😜🌹🌹🧐😆😃🦁🦁
there really are so many bits to still do its working out which ones can be done on route, were actually not to worried about the survey as we do know a lot of the boats history, its more for peace of mind and what will be will be, we will get there eventually and take on the canal system, were heading up to the the marina at the beginning of august so not to long know, blacking has been essential from day one, thank you for sticking with us John :)
Hi Becca, Chis and your adopted ducks, Great Vlog as always. You both work so hard, and are good at what you do. That's really good having your gas locker on the side of your boat. Becca the toilet construction is coming on very well, and its so neat and square. Well done Chris on cleaning the Gas cupboard and fitting the duck hatch wooden inner pieces. Your vlogs are such a pleasure to watch. Have a great week. Take Care.
Hi thanks for your lovely comment, it makes vlogging it all worth it, its quite the challenge when were both quite unsure of what were doing, but its fun having a go and learning, not long now till set sail for our blacking and survey that should be very interesting, thanks again take care
haha thank you thats nice, were hoping to put at least 3-4 out a week once we have more time and especially when were cruising, thanks for your support and lovely words :)
@@TheNomadicCrobot. What put out 3 or 4 loos a week or 3 or 4 vlogs a week? LOL, yeah I know what you mean. Boy that will be a lot of work but it will be great, I won’t hold you to it but I’d love it. Take care and I so hope that terrible heat has gone, it must have been terrible in a steel home. 💕
Your crapper will be so smart it will be a shame to use it , l’m sure the duck poo will add to the patina .Will you be having an opening ceremony ? P S love the T shirt Bex never seen a row of pencil sharpeners before 😱
Got 11 ducks and Mum at Needingworth - there’re sweet but very hungry. The ones at the dolphin Hotel at St Ives are terrors and take no prisoners. Will be passing Fri AM on way to the Bedford River Festival in my Freeman 22/2 so will leave ducky food and beer on board for you both Keep well xx
Oh amazing, we love them, it's the swans you need to watch haha will be heading that way in the next weeks so will have to investigate, that's so sweet thank you I'm not sure we're at the marina this weekend but would love to say hi some time , when will you be passing back through? We have invested in some duck pellets now as it's a bit nicer on them
haha they are very scary... but yes probably massively fashionable in the spider world...why so many of them go through the surgery to have themselves so bulbous amazes me
FYI - I guess feeding ducks bread is "ok" (not ideal) but you don't want to throw the bread in the water because it can cause algae blooms. (So dry-land feeding only)
yes we know its not ideal with upgraded now to duck pellets which will be far nicer for them, oh thats interesting tanks we thought it would help soften it for them, thanks for your kind advise
Oh thank you, we'd love to it's was always our plan to try and include a bit more music, we're travelling up soon for our blacki g and survey so will try and fit some in, thank you for asking 😊

Hi, thank you for sharing your progress.
Thanks for enjoying our journey 😀
Think you both amazing and have tackled your journey brilliantly. Love the vlogs
we have tried to stay positive, though do have our days when it gets a bit much, soon rust will be a thing of the past :)
Please get an electric drill and a wire brush Bit for the Drill. It looks like you do a lot of wire brushing and probably bang up your hands. :-)
Thanks Mike, I do actually have e one but I just find it easier with the brush, people do keep telling me, maybe I enjoy the pain HAHA
@@TheNomadicCrobot LOL, My hands feel your pain. great job and thanks for sharing :-)
Your crapper will be so smart it will be a shame to use it , l’m sure the duck poo will add to the patina .Will you be having an opening ceremony ? P S love the T shirt Bex never seen a row of pencil sharpeners before 😱
owww a grand ceremony..amazing, dont give me ideas like that haha amazing t-shirt I agree :)
Your marigolds are getting crusty Chris! Thanks for another episode of the normadic crowbot ! It just gets better and better !
I know...im failing them...but I can't quite part with them yet...we have an unmatched bond

Cheers Will, by the time we've finished all the DIY you will have finished the whole canal circuit haha
@@TheNomadicCrobot ha ha looking forward to meeting you two.
Love the t shirt!
It's awesome isn't it haha
You might be able to adapt a fan for a desktop computer. They're smallish. Good to see your new video, getting closer to sailing the canals. :)
thats. a great shout, or maybe a parade of hamsters in little wheels under the floorboards?

@@TheNomadicCrobot Heading back from drunken mayhem on Mon 25 July. You can't beat the Bedford River Festival; its watery madness..
Bulbous bums, certainly scary but then fashionable! 😱I don’t think the spiders your talking about have had plastic surgery though!😂
haha they are very scary... but yes probably massively fashionable in the spider world...why so many of them go through the surgery to have themselves so bulbous
amazes me
@@TheNomadicCrobot 😂🤣😂🕷
FYI - I guess feeding ducks bread is "ok" (not ideal) but you don't want to throw the bread in the water because it can cause algae blooms. (So dry-land feeding only)
Cornflakes are better than bread. Bread is not good.
yes we know its not ideal with upgraded now to duck pellets which will be far nicer for them, oh thats interesting tanks we thought it would help soften it for them, thanks for your kind advise
Use soft fit vent there half the size of yours
Oh interesting thank you
O'h mister Attenborugh (?) more Ducks than Rust this time! Shit so to say 😁 Thank U
Haha exactly makes a nice change on the rust front 😄
👍👌❤🇨🇦
Are you going to play guitar and sing some more. That was enjoyable.
Oh thank you, we'd love to it's was always our plan to try and include a bit more music, we're travelling up soon for our blacki g and survey so will try and fit some in, thank you for asking 😊
your just getting rid of one crap piece for another
haha pretty much
