Part 3 of the Mersey trilogy and we are rewarded with drama, trepidation, child like wonder and great calm. Thank you LBG for your delightful interpretation of the big day out.. xx.
Thank you for letting us ride along .. I personally being from Philadelphia/US enjoy your city stuff a lot ...thank you for sharing your world ...and so cool you get together with the others/your friends and make a video together ..... magical magical magical ... you make other people so happy with that kinda stuff!! enjoy !!!
Very interesting trip down memory lane. A bitter sweet one for me, those Stolt Chemi tankers bought up the contract our ships were working, & made us all redundant. Good to see they still the working ditch the same way from QE 2 basin back to Stanlow, & sometimes a trip up to Partington. then back load at Stanlowe for Rotterdam, &/or Antwerp .
Great vlog, learned some things about the Mersey that I never knew, and I've lived here my entire life! Great shots of the Liver buildings, see you spotted a few real Liver birds on the river! Take care.
Interesting to see the industry still going going on in the river. It makes me realise what the Norfolk Broads might have been like when they still brought the sugar by water to the sugar factory by Cantley. We still have the old wherries sailing on the Broads but they’re volunteer run and no longer carry cargo but it’s always an impressive site when you see one sailing down the river towards you with their huge black sails 😀
It was fun to see all three channels for comparison, here's an example; (When the tanker moved into the lock, each had their own comment:) Michael - "Biggest ship we're ever likely to share a lock with". David - "It's pretty big". Lorna - "HOLY GUACAMOLE!". As I watched the behemoth glide in toward the narrowboat, my response would have been much more like Lorna's - but not worried as much about YT censors... HOLY CRAP! 😲
Fascinating seeing the differences between yours and David's videos - given you were at the same place at the same time :-). Love both the styles! Happy Holidays!
Thanks you are very funny and informative as i live in Birkenhead and have been fortunate to go across the dock that you, David and Minimallist were in! I lived in Eastham when my Dad was alive. I have crossed on the ferry but it's nice to get your perspective of Elle' Port and Warburton Bridge i have been over and Stockton Heath bridge which is very high above the canal and my Dad worked in Irlam that was great and i wish you a Merry Xmas and more vlogs in a Happy New Year :))
Very well done video (the best of the three, frankly). I especially liked the perfect music and soft, ambient sound track used seems most fitting for this anti-climatic crossing. Cheers!
I agree. Actually, I hate it when vloggers have such loud music. I'd rather listen to the sounds of the water and the wildlife. If I want music, can turn the radio on.
Really interesting to get three vblogs for the price of one. Not boring to get three posts on the same subject. Each post seems to build on the others. Thanks, enjoyed that.
Well done to all of you that was excellent. Michael is fearless and makes up for jo' s nerves. I was at Elsmere on the 19th of October making a vlog on Minimalist's recommendation and looking out from there I can see just how wide the waters are there. Many thanks take care. Alan.
Wow, I didn't know that my River was sacred to Hindus. Just shows how little I know about my own city. Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it while waiting for the football to start 👍⚽
Thanks for another view of the crossing, each adding something to the mix. A large car plant and the site of a Victorian 'theme park' were passed on your journey too. Looking forward to the second part of the trip with anticipation and, hopefully, a similar synchronised release.
Been a subscriber for a while but must admit have not watched your vlogs. This one was beautiful and very information and photographic. Will go back and watch all your vlogs.
Frantic dramatic movie/radio intro voice: "The fate of the universe hangs in the balance, what shall we do!?" Resonant confident voice, with gravity: "Reconvene the Thames Team."
Port Sunlight is fabulous. The old hospital is now a fabulous bijoux hotel. I was going to have my honeymoon there but drugs wore off and my girlfriend escaped.
Watched all 3 vid from you guys... Your footage looked best by far, pity you never captured the rainbow over Liverpool... Appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to produce these great vids.. Thank you Liked & Subbed
@@lornajaneadventures If I knew you were all going to be here in Liverpool I would have come down and said hello... Love watching all the canal bloggers on RUclips.. Thanks
wow, I'm almost at a loss for words. That was a very nice video. I would say the narrow boat gods were watching you as the river became rather smooth. Poor George he had to put up with David in your video. lol Going to be hard waiting for the next video, but what choice do I have. lol
great vlog, i used to live on the row of houses on the left, the second one, past the new builds on the way up to barton bridge, when i was a kid. used to love watching the ships n played all up and down the canal side. did you have special permission to go on the manchester ship canal. narrowboats was a rairity on there x
8:55 - The ship on the left is coming off the canal - the centre one's coming out of Eastham docks ! It seems David got this wrong too (but Michael didn't !)
Must be mad to go on Mersey , I have fish it ,but never go across on canal boat and I live in Liverpool that is one flat sea that day ,was that the only way
Picked up on your journey as you enter the south end of the Wirral peninsula Picked up on a few facts I was unaware of having lived here all my life Check out channel for more info about the peninsula I subbed
Thanks for the interesting historical background info about the Mersey river and its crossings.
Loved watching all 3 perspectives of this journey. 🤗
Having watched Jo & Michael's vlog and David's vlog, it's great to have another view of this adventure! Thanks for this, Lorna.
Lovely music, lovely shots and lovely commentary!
A GREAT TRIP WITH AMAZING VIEWS AND GREAT COMPANIONS TOO....
Brilliant vlog! Thanks for coming along. See you next year for the wash xx
Minimal List I’m looking forward to it already

Holy guacamole? Not the exact words Id have used if I saw that tanker entering the dock with me 😂 another great video and cruise with friends 😀

Of the three vlogs, I liked your video composition the best! Beautiful pictures!

That was a great point about the Hindu ceremonies - and very interesting about the history and environmental history.
Fantastic vlog - thank you :)
Great music selection and sound balance overall. Fantastic content as as well of course.
awesome adventure, thanks Lorna 👍
Fascinating. Brilliant video!
It was fun to see all three channels for comparison, here's an example;
(When the tanker moved into the lock, each had their own comment:)
Michael - "Biggest ship we're ever likely to share a lock with".
David - "It's pretty big".
Lorna - "HOLY GUACAMOLE!".
As I watched the behemoth glide in toward the narrowboat, my response would have been much more like Lorna's - but not worried as much about YT censors... HOLY CRAP! 😲
Your Vid is so different from the others, I like yours the best so much info. and calm music and your voice. You need more Viewers!!!!
- I agree!
It's also interesting to se a glimse of how the others vlogs are created.
OMG! Beautiful job! I could listen to your calm and soothing voice all day! You have a gift, and thanks for sharing.
Best city in the world people are the best a long with irsh 💚 wonderful place 👍👍💯 lreland and Liverpool 🇮🇪😁😄❤️❤️👺😺
Impressed by the many facts you bring up on route!!!
Fascinating seeing the differences between yours and David's videos - given you were at the same place at the same time :-). Love both the styles! Happy Holidays!
I've missed your videos lately, you educated me on your descriptions of the historical canals during your travels down the canals.

Loved the music. Boy oh boy - when that big boat came into the lock you must have been feeling very tiny! Looking forward to the next vlog!

Have subscribed to your channel.
Lovely footage Lorna. Its funny how you all approach the points of interest differently, thank you x
Wow, I didn't know that my River was sacred to Hindus. Just shows how little I know about my own city. Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it while waiting for the football to start 👍⚽
Thanks for your beautifully shot perspective. Did you notice George was strapping Jo in very securely? Smart, caring dog.
Loved your voice, piano, and exceptional choice of views. Carry on Y'all!

Another fantastic collaboration! All the best of the season to you, keep well!
Good job! I'm so relaxed that I subscribed.
13:52 "Holy Guacamole!" (I can't believe I missed your video when I watched David's and Jo and Michael's. Subbed!!)
Great video, very calming music. 7:00 George be like "Mehhh, nothing I've never seen before" LOL he's such a good boy!
Well done, all three vlogs mesh together nicely 😊
So funny when you were pulling faces in the end of David's video! 😂
As David says... Very professional
Spotting Boaty McBoatface - nice one!!
Great vlog and another perspective I enjoyed after watching Minimal and David videos. Funny your perspective on the ocean going ship.
Been a subscriber for a while but must admit have not watched your vlogs. This one was beautiful and very information and photographic. Will go back and watch all your vlogs.
I always believe you're honest with us. "Too people"🤗
Hi Lorna,
Came from David's channel & subscribed.
Loved your side of the story, thankyou
Beautifully edited.

Great vlog Lorna, happy new year.
Of the three versions of this trip this is definitely the shortest👍
There at 13:44, the Pilot and Michael look very much like The Mariner and the Mountain Man, which sounds like it ought to be a title of something.
Watched all 3 vid from you guys... Your footage looked best by far, pity you never captured the rainbow over Liverpool... Appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to produce these great vids.. Thank you
Liked & Subbed
PatBot thanks. I didn’t even notice the rainbow until I saw it in Jo’s video. Shame I missed it
@@lornajaneadventures If I knew you were all going to be here in Liverpool I would have come down and said hello... Love watching all the canal bloggers on RUclips.. Thanks
nice goin l.j. m8! keep up the good works stay safe vertical an well eh!

I enjoyed the different ways you each adopted to tell the story...
great vlog, i used to live on the row of houses on the left, the second one, past the new builds on the way up to barton bridge, when i was a kid. used to love watching the ships n played all up and down the canal side. did you have special permission to go on the manchester ship canal. narrowboats was a rairity on there x
tracy fun there are a lot of rules and red tape to go through. Jo & Michael talk about it in detail on their video
@@lornajaneadventures thought they would be lol. Not seen there vlog yet will watch it soon x
@@lornajaneadventures are you all ok, hope all is well. Been waiting for the vlogs from you but not seen anything yet. Xx
Appreciate your perspective!!
8:55 - The ship on the left is coming off the canal - the centre one's coming out of Eastham docks !
It seems David got this wrong too (but Michael didn't !)
Just seen you on "CC's" vlog, good stuff, nice to get another perspective.
Great vlog

I thought so. Thanks for the speedy reply. Just watching it now!

Must be mad to go on Mersey , I have fish it ,but never go across on canal boat and I live in Liverpool that is one flat sea that day ,was that the only way
