Love it😃awesome friend😃❤️.
So gutted you didnt find it. Was hoping for a happy ending 😞 Fingers crossed it turns up at some point and you get it back. Michelle and Andy 🚐😃👍
cheers guys just 2 secs of carelessness and gone ! soooo frustrating ! silly me , thanks Michelle / andy
So it’s not just me, what a relief !!! Sorry for your loss, so frustrating when you know it’s there, I think I’d have had to get in the canal !!
i was advised not to go in due to the undercurrent on that day although i was tempted , very frustrating yes but totally my fault due to carelessness i suppose , just a shame , thanks for watching the video and commenting
Sorry about camera loss , glad you didn’t go in it looked a bit iffy in that water . Take care 🚐👍
cheers eric yes it was cold and dark in there i didn’t fancy it one bit 😂👍
thanks for watching
take care
mike
Oh wow, I’m really sorry you lost your camera, great idea with the rake. Such a shame x
hi julie yes it was so unfortunate , silly me just myself to blame but these things happen , thanks for watching the video and commenting
Try wearing Polaroid sunglasses to reduce the glare? Alternatively get a glass bottomed boat, or adapt a bucket: might be able to see the bottom more clearly.
never thought of the sunglasses actually 👍 you mean like one of those boxes with a glass bottom , could try that yes but the bottom ( 3 M ) was very black covered by reeds , thanks for your ideas and thanks for watching the video
Mike if you want could you rake the leaves up in my garden, seriously bad luck hope you get it back somehow, and another entertaining vlog.
yeah totally my fault being careless for just 2 seconds thats all it took !
yes it was pinewoods at wells , very nice site
Glad you didn't go in the water, those reeds & the current looked dangerous, a CAMERA can be replaced!!
cheers terry spot on , i was tempted on a couple of occasions, glad i didn’t now , thanks for watching and commenting
So frustrating! I wish you all the luck when you next search for it.
cheers rob my fault being careless
Such a shame you couldn't snag it. I was shouting "get in there" but it did look cold. Is the tripod made of aluminium or steel? Magnet fishing maybe?
hi ads yeah cold and an undercurrent, what an idiot i am , less than 2 seconds and gone , tripod aluminium unfortunately, an expensive lesson learnt !
thanks for watching 👍
Hi there kirsty mike and doggies...so sorry youve lost your camera..so frustrating maybe it might come to light..fingers crossed..x
hi louise yes maybe one day it might , just annoyed with myself , but these things happen , thanks for watching the video and commenting 👍
Feeling your pain! Have to say I wouldn’t be getting in the river under any circumstances. Losing the Go Pro is bad enough. Losing the cameraman is so much worse! Stay safe and phone your insurance man. Sorry for your loss mate. Cheers Dave & Helen
cheers dave yeah your so right there i was really tempted to go in at one point it was the narrow boat people that told me not too due to the undercurrent that day , feel so stupid ! thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Hi Mike and Kirsty,
What an awful thing to happen, very frustrating. I see your efforts to get it back with the garden rake were unsuccessful. Maybe something with more like grappling hooks would be better at catching hold of one of the tripod legs. It might be a good idea to widen your search a bit, the undercurrent might have moved it. Good luck with your search, I hope you finally get it back. Take care.
Ian and Angie.
thanks ian & angie yes it was a bit of a bad day we were there most of the day throwing that rake , definitely agree with the undercurrent, although the river looked peaceful , underneath was a strong current , will try other methods next week , thanks for watching and commenting
mike
Hi Mike,
I forget to mention this bit, it could be worthwhile wearing a pair of polarised sunglasses, it might help to take the glare off the top of the water.
Ian and Angie.
@@ianlindsay1454 thank you ian
Sorry to hear about your camera, is it insured?
thank you no not insured being an action camera they are always getting broke or lost
Unlucky! GoPro 9! I would be jumping in. 👍 Graeme
was tempted graeme but the guys on the narrow boats said not too due to the undercurrent that day 😬
Oh no, hope you manage to retrieve it, better chance with the tripod attached I s’ pose but still quite a large area to search and those pesky reeds won’t help. How deep/clear is it? Would you see anything if you just dipped your head in wearing googles?! I don’t know the water quality whether safe or not. I certainly wouldn’t venture right in, too risky!
it was much deeper than we thought sue and almost black at the bottom under the reeds , someone on a narrow boat advised not to go in on that particular day cos of the undercurrent but on good calm days it’s pretty clear , typical tho eh ! just unlucky and carelessness by me
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel ☹
Oh no Mike!! We are back there next week with both paddle boards. We'll keep an eye out for you. Julie was so hoping to feature in your vlog, on her board. #bugger
you both were in it and i saw you packing up and got distracted then you’d gone so i couldn’t tell you what had happened and to not expect the video that i was filming , totally my fault , what a wally , but these things happen #muppet 😂
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel - I'm sure we'll see you in town now. I hope you've checked Amazon for skipper's hats. It's your new vocation. Our best to Kirsty. Julie said, you're welcome to try paddle boarding. Bring your cozzie' 😆🤣 Stay safe, and have a great weekend. Rgds D&J.
@@dazzle52k52 never paddle boarded before that will be fun 🤩, yes the captains hat is on its way 😂 , have a great weekend 👍
Bugger it, worse things happen at sea they say and you were nearly there (wet and deep), it is such a shame but to get the 'shot' have to go to extremes. Take care, stay safe and dry
exactly mick that’s what i was trying to do , getting “ the shot “ , but 2 seconds and camera gone ! only myself to blame
Oh no! What a sad day.
i’m a total dumb%##s , no excuses
That was a bit tense at times. I was hoping you where going to get it back, anyway hope you manage to find it. 🤞🤞
thanks paul we spent a lot of time there we must have been so close , hope you are both well , take care
What a nightmare! 😩 i hope you get the camera back mate.
The Sub Aqua shout out is a great idea...failing that, you could get your trunks on and have a wade about ... with a Magnet 🧲 👍
thanks i’d love to get it back but silly me no excuses , i was tempted to go in at one point , it was deeper than it looked and the reeds at the bottom were moving to fast with the current so it put me off 👍
What a shame but I loved the rake idea. Take care Gill
thanks gill yes we were so sure it would work , never mind , thanks for watching
You must have felt awful. My heart goes out to you
cheers alan , my fault only myself to blame . 2 secs of carelessness is all it took
Bloody shame; especially as you knew where it was (generally) 🙄💙❤️
yeah such a shame but my own fault i’ve only got myself to blame ! 😬
thanks for watching and commenting
Iv got scuba gear here have you tried your local sub aqua club they might help. Im in Shropshire maybe to far from you
thanks for your concern and offer of help yes we are way down in suffolk we will try again this weekend as it’s in a small search area providing it didn’t drift
thanks
Very nice stay safe and stay connected pls guide us through 🔔 have a nice day 💕💕💕
Bloody hell Mike! I’m gutted for you, I’ve just bought a brand new camera as we’re stepping up from just phones and it’s not cheap is it? Such a shame I bet that lost footage was easy a 30k view job as well 😂
oh cool what camera did you get ? yeah gutted what a total idiot it was gone in less than 2 secs , my fault totally , haha yeah a 30k view vlog in the first hour i was hoping 😂 got seriously trolled for this video though , more than my usual
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel we got the DJI Osmo Action which is virtually the same as the GoPro, trolls commenting make me laugh I don’t give a 💩 lol it’s all interaction for the RUclips analytics
@@RickandHeather nice one yeah same as gopro , yes the more trolls and thumbs downs the more interaction, bring it all on 👍😀
Extending decorating pole attached to rake? B & Q do one that extends to 3metres. Might give you more control over the rake. Hope you manage to find it. Take care.
thanks helen & another good idea 👍
thanks for watching the video and commenting
take care
Any Steel on the tripod . If so you could try a magnet. 🧲
hmm good idea , possibly on a certain part , i think it’s mostly aluminium , thanks for the idea and thanks for watching the video
Gopro 9 I would have a mask on and be in there 👍
trust me i was thinking the same but the narrow boat people advised me not too due to the undercurrent on that day
Can you borrow another GoPro 9 to film under the water, watch the footage and see if you see it?
possibly yes on a better day maybe , it was just too dark under there especially under the reeds
😔😔😔
Oh no that’s terrible
my fault being careless
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel I would have cried , lesson learned as you say. I hope you do get it back.
@@TheChapin333 thanks sue that would be nice yes we are continuing the search this weekend
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel fingers crossed 🤞
Put a shout out on FB or Look for sub Aqua Group
good idea cheers 👍😀
What a shame keep ur chin buddy
thanks will do & thanks for watching
