I maybe biased Robbie but what a great vlog, possibly your best ever:) It was a brilliant day thank you, and I am now in the book, fantastic. Good luck with the new series.
Hi all. Just a quick update from me. I am now 121 days sober and loving life. Thank you for all of the kind messgaes of encouragement and to Robbie for his continuing support. The last few months have been truly life changing and to have support out there is aamazing so thank you all.
Well done Barry and Robbie for sharing the experience. Recovery groups like AA have given me the best years of my life and brought me to a point where I began to develop a passion for sailing the waterways. Keep it up! 😊
Good luck with the filming. The first series was really something - we really enjoyed it and look forward to season two - although we certainly will miss you here.
Absolutely stoked to see Anna described as 'stepdaughter' - I was hoping it was heading that way, you sure deserve it. She and Alice are both very lucky ladies!
Great to see you out and about filming again. I'll give you a tip: I think you need a good pair of nitrile gloves and snug work gloves over them (for when your cranking), and some stylus'. I use these all the time while working in the field. I work as an engineer for a county sanitation district here in the states, "trust me, keeping my hands clean and germ (poopoo) free is a priority." Cheers to Barry on his sobriety, your attitude and outlook on life improve ten fold when you come to the realization that you don't need alcohol to make you happy, there are plenty of other things in life to take it's place.
Good to see you back on the water again. As you say, some of us are still in lockdown with no overnight stay so we are just waiting patiently for CRT to give us a green light. Looking forward to series 2
enjoyed the first 3 episodes of your tv series but then they just finished for some reason, looking forward to season 2 though good luck with the filming, great vlog btw
Yes it was a great video, thanks to Barry for sharing his story. Loved the messy cooking bonus feature! Chester looked so pretty , inspired to visit when lockdown ends. I hope your step daughter can see her cute frozen transfer on the vlog. All the best!
I’m with your girlfriend - you are a messy bugger in the kitchen - loved the way you hammed it up, especially the fall to the floor~ Great vlog, and good luck wth the new series. Cheers from Tasmania, Down Under.
Brilliant vlog Robbie,great to see your cruising again mate and best wishes on you now getting filming your next series even though it’s later than you would have liked. Can’t wait to view it,take care stay safe and best wishes to you and yours.👌👍
Great video! So professional and witty. The cooking scenes were a hoot! I have missed the sound of the Naughty Lass's Lister. Good luck with making the new series.
Best vlog yet Robbie!. Myself, Sharon, Frodo the dog, and Billy the pony are trying to learn as much as possible from you until we can explore the cut again, and eventually buy a narrowboat
We like Azera coffee with cream too 😋. Glad you're on the move again and nice to hear Naughty Lass' engine chugging along the canal. Good luck with the new series. 😊
Kudos, Robbie, for helping a guy out. I have a good friend, retired attorney (don't hold that against him), who's ~40 years sober and =still= goes to AA meetings at least weekly. Even when traveling around the world, he'd do his best to find a meeting. Congrats to Barry for making a tough decision!
WONDERFUL! Your back ...So looking forward to travelling the waterways with you again..From the comfort of my sofa (which is lovely this time of year )..KEEP CRANKING IT ROBBIE 👍
Good to see you back on the cut Robbie. I've been making a few offers on narrowboats as I'm about to become a continuous cruiser. Do you think I'll have any problems with the current lockdown rules? Fair play to Barry! I gave up drinking 7 years ago and never looked back.
Congratulations on the starting of your second season, great news pal. I could only find the first 3 episodes of your first season on Sky catch up. I’ve just tried again today and it’s totally gone now which I’m gutted about, I was really enjoying it too 😓. Anyway great to see you on the move again. Cheers, Ant 👍
Eh up Robbie nice to see your ok . It was wonderful to hear the Naughty Lass cranking on the canal once again missed that wonderful sound , glad to hear Barry has taken the leap and is doing well with his sobriety, I have been 27 years in September this year sober , it is hard work but I don't miss having a drink at all , good luck in filming your second series ,I look forward to watching that !! Ps Carnation milk in coffee the dogs !!
Robbie Cumming Sorry if I wasn’t paying proper attention to the porridge making, but I thought you said you were adding cream rather than milk. I’m sure you know how best to do it without my intervention. I forgot to say in the first message how wonderful to hear you’re in the process of making the second TV series, and hope it doesn’t get too frustrating achieving the end goal.
Well done Robbie, you are an inspiration to us all. I am really looking forward to seeing Series 2 and I hope that this will include the Lancaster canal. The Calder & Hebble handspikes are truly rubbish, mine broke at the first lock so I used a mooring pin instead which proved to be an excellent solution to the problem as without it were going nowhere. Stay safe, keep cranking and I look forward to your next voyage. Cheers and Beers, Dave
Great video Robbie, thanks for sharing, it’s always refreshing to hear people thinking of others rather than just themselves which sadly is certainly the impression portrayed in the media quite often these days. We took the decision to “lockdown” a couple of weeks prior to the official advice due to vulnerable relatives and glad we did. All the best mate, will no doubt adapt, stay safe and better safe than sorry with all the cleaning. Paul
When doing Chilli Con Carne I always use a tin of chopped tomatoes & chilli beans in chilli sauce. You can also add garlic, turmeric, paprika, cumin and garam masala to flavour. Best served with crusty bread.
Never buy tins of chopped tomatoes they are just the scrap bits and sweepings off the floor get peeled plum and chop them yourself you know what you are getting then
Great video. Barry is an inspiration. He’s done so well and is a great ambassador for an alcohol free life. I love a drink and the evening never seems complete if I don’t have a G&T but to be honest during lockdown I was feeling like it was starting to affect my health and my memory! So I decided to stop. I’m now having just a tonic with ice and a slice and I’m really enjoying it and I’m richer. Mind you I did but 4 cans of Guinness for this weekend but just for medicinal purposes 😁 Thanks as always for sharing your adventure. I can’t wait for the next series of Canal Boat Diaries, without a G&T!
great vid. not been home to chester in over 6 years., so great to see familiar sights, although sad to see it so quiet. telfords was always full of students but a nice pub. hope to see some clips through blacon and mollington on your way to e'port in part 2 . we used to do our school cross country run along that section. some fancy bridges along there.
Barry spoke about the shakes, well suffered that and got by with a large glass of Egyptian brandy before going into the mess hall, the brandy help keep the cornflakes on the spoon. That was way back and halve cut down on drinking a lot, I now have a drink or three for pleasure, not that I need one. Hardly open the liqueur cabinet unless friends come by, couple of cans of the lowest proof beer to cool down after walking the dog, maybe a session once a week of 3 pts to talk english with a Brit neighbor or someone's wedding/birthday. Enjoying life and the corn flakes stay on the spoon without help.
Probably worth noting Robbie. In about a weeks time the footy is back, and its on the telly for free (mostly). Probably would be a great time to get chunks of filming done for the TV because the tow paths (and for that matter the cut in general) should be a bit quieter while its on. Tiiiiiiiiiip of the weeeeeeek.
Excellent strength Barry, your world is starting to turn again. Pity about the pandemic . Well done Robbie, a friend indeed,suffering his own withdrawal in solitude . Great vlog.
Thank you for explaining the transfer on your neck. I was seriously concerned that isolation drove you so bonkers that you broke out and got a Disney tattoo from an underground tattoo artist. Regarding chili con carne: I learned my go to recipe in East Texas where, unlike West Texas, they use beans and tomatoes. Fresh tomatoes are always luverly, but tinned, diced work quite well in case you ever find yourself in a culinary wasteland...
Wow I have really missed the sound of that lister . Hope you have enjoyed Chester absolutely wonderful city and waterfront. We still stuck on the leeds Liverpool so extremely jealous at the moment. It would be interesting to know just how many boats have no alcohol on board,not many would be my guess . Not sure about the chilli mate.. Have a great day and enjoy the quiet canal.
We would love to be able to go somewhere BUT a lock on a river and the only way to get on the caulder network is blocked because of a sandbank. Been stuck for last 3 months here in Yorkshire, nice place though and got on a leisure mooring for 21 quid a week with power and a locked gate with only 5 other live on boats, one of which is my son's.
Loved the cheeky cookery demo. Robbie! I made many visits to Chester on the old Crosville buses from home on the Wirral as a child, so I am indulging happily in nostalgia. However I was totally unaware of there being a canal in Chester. I used to be taken to walk along the river Dee and feed the ducks.Thank you Robbie that your vlogs never fail to lift my spirits, inform and entertain and often make me laugh.
Thanks for a really great vlogg, I especially enjoyed you making the chilli 🌶 , i did actually laugh out loud, so thanks again for that. I must say i admire the fact your boat isn’t completely tidy, made me feel better about the way my bost gets sometimes 😄. Keep safe, all the best 👍😃
I wish I could see your series here (can't view iPlayer outside UK) but this nicely crafted vlog makes up for it. A vlogger that uses cutaways rather than jump cuts, nice montage of WAs to tell a visual story, and mix of info and entertainment... raising the bar yet again, Robbie. Nice one.. keep safe.
A nice vlog, great editing with really good images.9:14 reminded me of the reaction I get to some jokes I tell. Nice one Barry. Glad you are feeling good.
Wow! As you flew a drone over Stourport on Severn basin (canalboat diaries) I could see my boat moored at the yacht club!! The nearest I've been to being on telly - and she looked better than I would have...
Great vlog Robbie. Fantastic city Chester is. When I was there I did the walk around the city on that wall. A big well done and good luck for the future to Barry Frost. Take care pal and keep safe plus keep crankin it... 😋🤗🥂
CONGRATULATIONS Barry on your sobriety. My husband has been sober for over 20 years now. Just remember this. If times get hard PRAY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER PRAYED BEFORE IN YOUR LIFE. God will bring you threw everything. I'm a knower of God's work. I'm happy you've joined us, @ least me & my husband. Take good care of yourself sir. Robbie I'm glad that wasn't a tattoo on your neck. A hicky I would understand. Thought the lockdown made you go nuts & get a tattoo..... lol..... You can be messy in the kitchen. But you just have to work harder to clean it up. So don't be messy & you can set down faster... hehehehe..... IT did look yummy. Glad your back on the water. Have fun, be safe, Chris from Missouri
Glad you back cranking it Robbie,didn’t realise you are a master chef nice chilli concarni,crap at spelling soz,you descent bloke helping Barry,glad he is on the mend,and you gone very posh ,cream in coffee we have semi skimmed milk,we’ll you deserve it ,and working for the BBC ,looking forward to the new episode on telly,keep cranking man .👍
Will you be doing any "behind the scenes" vlogging while you shoot the new series? As we can't see the series here in the States, would be great to at least see how it's filmed. Safe travels!
I could do some updates perhaps yeah, but proper behind the scenes doesn’t work as what I do is film everything for the bbc and they pick what they want to use 😿
Top, top vlog Robbie! 😀 It had it all ... - Drum 'n' Bass vibes - Superb filming - A lovely bloke called Barry - Sailor tattoo (sort of) - Beer of the week (sort of) - Messy con carne - Lots and lots of laughs Simply brilliant. The best thing I've watched during lockdown. You should be on the telly 😉 Good luck with season 2 filming!
Good on ya Barry, many more wonderful days to come! You've got a real fine boat there too bud, we're pullin for ya here in El Paso :) Oh yea, Hey Rob =P chili suggestions .. add chili powder and ground cumin ....voila
Chester is a city I know very well. I was born and raised in Altricham about 30 miles away. That was a lovely video Congratulations to Barry. I'm pulling for you friend
Great to see you back on the naughty Lass, hope you don’t miss having company too much. Don’t know about catching scurvy,I thought you’d got the black spot though before you showed us what it was 😂 good luck Barry,well done mate.
Hi Friend, Good to see you out and about! Here's quick chili recipe...1 chopped onion, mince, seasoning, can of beans and a jar of your favorite salsa. Try that one, It's really good and quick. Peace from the USA
I maybe biased Robbie but what a great vlog, possibly your best ever:) It was a brilliant day thank you, and I am now in the book, fantastic. Good luck with the new series.
Congratulations on giving up the sauce Barry. Best of luck in the coming years. Enjoy your life and keep on smiling!
Good on you Barry. Life on the cut does seem to go hand in hand with alcohol. Fingers crossed it all works out for you...
I can tell by listening to you that you’ve taken back control Barry, keep at it, well done and all the best for the future 👍
brill barry! you'll always have support here 😊
Ps. I finished with the stuff 5 years ago and actually hate the taste of it now lol
Hi all. Just a quick update from me. I am now 121 days sober and loving life. Thank you for all of the kind messgaes of encouragement and to Robbie for his continuing support. The last few months have been truly life changing and to have support out there is aamazing so thank you all.
Well Done Barry… a great story… thanks for sharing it
My eyes are watering when Barry talks about stopping. So hard mate, such an awful illness. Go well.
AA kept my Father in Law alive for years by helping him stay sober one day at a time. Gereat group of people.
Nice one David. I'm glad your Dad found AA. AA kept me sober for three and a quarter happy years. I thank them for those times.
This guy could drive anyone to drink!
Wow! Amazing story, Robbie and Barry! All the best in your continued recovery! You know have a new 'crew' pulling for you!
Well done Barry and Robbie for sharing the experience. Recovery groups like AA have given me the best years of my life and brought me to a point where I began to develop a passion for sailing the waterways. Keep it up! 😊
Aaawwwww that was just lovely what Barry said. Good luck Barry you are a gem of a guy. Happy days belong to you. X
Good luck with the filming. The first series was really something - we really enjoyed it and look forward to season two - although we certainly will miss you here.
good for you barry it can be done its never easy but you can do it as you have for the past 80- days
Great to see you back on the cut, Robbie, and looking forward eagerly to your new series!
Congratulations Barry, 3 years sober on the 01/01/21 myself. All thanks to AA. Keep coming back Barry!
Thanks for sharing Barry. Lovely to see you moving on the canal again Robbie.
Absolutely stoked to see Anna described as 'stepdaughter' - I was hoping it was heading that way, you sure deserve it. She and Alice are both very lucky ladies!
Glad to see ya back cruising. Robbie, please congratulate Barry. Job well done sir
Very enjoyable video. Congratulations to Barry. Keep it up. Perhaps you'll start a trend on the cut!! 😊
Great shot of Snowgoose and the white ducks! Great to get your life back Barrie 😃👍. Keep up the fight lad, don’t let the booze back 🌟
Best of luck with series two, looking forward to seeing it

Jthe cooking bit creased me up. Well done Barry! 👏🏻 enjoyed this and just enjoyed the re run on BBC 4 🤩
Best vlog yet Robbie!. Myself, Sharon, Frodo the dog, and Billy the pony are trying to learn as much as possible from you until we can explore the cut again, and eventually buy a narrowboat
Great stuff thank you!!

I wish everybody thought about masking as you. That is the intelligent way to think of " to mask or not to mask" .
WONDERFUL! Your back ...So looking forward to travelling the waterways with you again..From the comfort of my sofa (which is lovely this time of year )..KEEP CRANKING IT ROBBIE 👍
Good video thanks im enjoying watching and seeing the places you visit and life on a boat
Good to see you back on the cut Robbie. I've been making a few offers on narrowboats as I'm about to become a continuous cruiser. Do you think I'll have any problems with the current lockdown rules?
Fair play to Barry! I gave up drinking 7 years ago and never looked back.
Nah you’ll be right mate 😎👍
Congratulations on the starting of your second season, great news pal.
I could only find the first 3 episodes of your first season on Sky catch up. I’ve just tried again today and it’s totally gone now which I’m gutted about, I was really enjoying it too 😓.
Anyway great to see you on the move again. Cheers, Ant 👍
AA works, my wife has 14 years of sobriety. Keep it up Berry.
I'd say you've added, positively, to many people's lives Robbie. Chapeau! And, long may you continue to crank it so!
Eh up Robbie nice to see your ok . It was wonderful to hear the Naughty Lass cranking on the canal once again missed that wonderful sound , glad to hear Barry has taken the leap and is doing well with his sobriety, I have been 27 years in September this year sober , it is hard work but I don't miss having a drink at all , good luck in filming your second series ,I look forward to watching that !!
Ps Carnation milk in coffee the dogs !!
Try making your porridge with just water and a bit of salt Robbie. Usually comes out smooth and creamy texture if not heated too rapidly.
That’s what i did though
Robbie Cumming Sorry if I wasn’t paying proper attention to the porridge making, but I thought you said you were adding cream rather than milk. I’m sure you know how best to do it without my intervention. I forgot to say in the first message how wonderful to hear you’re in the process of making the second TV series, and hope it doesn’t get too frustrating achieving the end goal.

Cheers Rog good to hear from you mate
👏👏👍😃🍺🍺🍻😷 did you remember 🧻!!
Great to have you back. Just get on with that TV show. We’re all waiting 😁
Great to see you back on the cut!
Great vlog Robbie. Congrats and Best of luck to Barry!
Rock on, Barry!! Stay strong. Great that you're taking control of your life. You've got this!
Great vlog Robbie. Wonderful. You are a good friend. Well done Berry. Cheers from the US. Xoxoxo
Nice to see you are back cranking it look forward to your BBC series.
Loved the colours.... especially the BLUE blue blue skies. So refreshing and uplifting. Just like your videos. :-) Best wishes!
Great video. Barry is an inspiration. He’s done so well and is a great ambassador for an alcohol free life. I love a drink and the evening never seems complete if I don’t have a G&T but to be honest during lockdown I was feeling like it was starting to affect my health and my memory! So I decided to stop. I’m now having just a tonic with ice and a slice and I’m really enjoying it and I’m richer. Mind you I did but 4 cans of Guinness for this weekend but just for medicinal purposes 😁 Thanks as always for sharing your adventure. I can’t wait for the next series of Canal Boat Diaries, without a G&T!
great vid. not been home to chester in over 6 years., so great to see familiar sights, although sad to see it so quiet. telfords was always full of students but a nice pub. hope to see some clips through blacon and mollington on your way to e'port in part 2 . we used to do our school cross country run along that section. some fancy bridges along there.
Cheers I think you’ll enjoy episode one of the upcoming BBC series I made then as it features the return journey.
@@RobbieCumming ill look out for it but not in uk so will have to wait for it to go online
Yeah it’ll get uploaded on youtube by someone I bet!
Just the way the elites like it, quiet #NWO
Barry spoke about the shakes, well suffered that and got by with a large glass of Egyptian brandy before going into the mess hall, the brandy help keep the cornflakes on the spoon.
That was way back and halve cut down on drinking a lot, I now have a drink or three for pleasure, not that I need one. Hardly open the liqueur cabinet unless friends come by, couple of cans of the lowest proof beer to cool down after walking the dog, maybe a session once a week of 3 pts to talk english with a Brit neighbor or someone's wedding/birthday. Enjoying life and the corn flakes stay on the spoon without help.
Just finished watching the little gem of a 'first' series.Enjoyed the journey and wonderful shots.Don't forget to do a show in Ireland!
Great to see you back on your narrowboat Robbie.....stay safe.....thanks for sharing
Great vlog again Robbie and much respect to Barry, hope the new series goes well keep up the good work😎👍🏼
Probably worth noting Robbie. In about a weeks time the footy is back, and its on the telly for free (mostly). Probably would be a great time to get chunks of filming done for the TV because the tow paths (and for that matter the cut in general) should be a bit quieter while its on. Tiiiiiiiiiip of the weeeeeeek.
Excellent strength Barry, your world is starting to turn again. Pity about the pandemic . Well done Robbie, a friend indeed,suffering his own withdrawal in solitude . Great vlog.
Thank you for explaining the transfer on your neck. I was seriously concerned that isolation drove you so bonkers that you broke out and got a Disney tattoo from an underground tattoo artist. Regarding chili con carne: I learned my go to recipe in East Texas where, unlike West Texas, they use beans and tomatoes. Fresh tomatoes are always luverly, but tinned, diced work quite well in case you ever find yourself in a culinary wasteland...
Great to see you back on the move Robbie. That's my fav coffee too will have to try with double cream. Take care and stay safe
Superb vlog. Can’t wait for the new series to start. 👍
Wow I have really missed the sound of that lister . Hope you have enjoyed Chester absolutely wonderful city and waterfront. We still stuck on the leeds Liverpool so extremely jealous at the moment. It would be interesting to know just how many boats have no alcohol on board,not many would be my guess . Not sure about the chilli mate.. Have a great day and enjoy the quiet canal.
Love the channel mate...finally subscribed after watching you from day one! Keep up the good work from Wolverley! Funny bugger u are!
We would love to be able to go somewhere BUT a lock on a river and the only way to get on the caulder network is blocked because of a sandbank. Been stuck for last 3 months here in Yorkshire, nice place though and got on a leisure mooring for 21 quid a week with power and a locked gate with only 5 other live on boats, one of which is my son's.
CONGRATS Barry!!!! Keep up the good vibes!
It may be drinkable but it won't get you pissed..love from Ireland
Ah, you are back ! good to see you.
Great to see you are on the move again. Can’t wait till the rest of us can get cruising.
Loved the cheeky cookery demo. Robbie! I made many visits to Chester on the old Crosville buses from home on the Wirral as a child, so I am indulging happily in nostalgia.

Well done Barry!
Great vlog, All the best to Barry.
A nice vlog, great editing with really good images.9:14 reminded me of the reaction I get to some jokes I tell. Nice one Barry. Glad you are feeling good.
Really enjoying your BBC four series.
Now that's what friends do - onwards.
I thought that was one of your best episodes to date dude.
That's a cool bit of wood with the Naughty Lass written on it! Was that a custom piece for the boat?
Great isn’t it - custom Calder and Hebble spike. A gift from crank it crew member Holly’s Dad after he snapped my original in the paddle gear 💪😂
Wow! As you flew a drone over Stourport on Severn basin (canalboat diaries) I could see my boat moored at the yacht club!! The nearest I've been to being on telly - and she looked better than I would have...
Great vlog Robbie. Fantastic city Chester is. When I was there I did the walk around the city on that wall. A big well done and good luck for the future to Barry Frost. Take care pal and keep safe plus keep crankin it... 😋🤗🥂
Another great video. Best of luck with filming for the new series :)
Coors, yo! Can't wait till "Canal Boat Diaries" finally comes ashore in the US or online in some way. Great time. Thanks.
CONGRATULATIONS Barry on your sobriety. My husband has been sober for over 20 years now.
Just remember this. If times get hard PRAY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER PRAYED BEFORE IN YOUR LIFE. God will bring you threw everything. I'm a knower of God's work. I'm happy you've joined us, @ least me & my husband. Take good care of yourself sir.
Robbie I'm glad that wasn't a tattoo on your neck. A hicky I would understand. Thought the lockdown made you go nuts & get a tattoo..... lol.....
You can be messy in the kitchen. But you just have to work harder to clean it up. So don't be messy & you can set down faster... hehehehe..... IT did look yummy.
Glad your back on the water. Have fun, be safe,
Chris from Missouri
That magic rock glass is beautiful Robbie, I'm abit of a glass hoarder 😂
Glad you back cranking it Robbie,didn’t realise you are a master chef nice chilli concarni,crap at spelling soz,you descent bloke helping Barry,glad he is on the mend,and you gone very posh ,cream in coffee we have semi skimmed milk,we’ll you deserve it ,and working for the BBC ,looking forward to the new episode on telly,keep cranking man .👍
great to see you back :)
The falling down was funny. Why no chili powder in the chili? Glad to see you back.
I didn’t have any! I do now though so it’s all good 🥵
Will you be doing any "behind the scenes" vlogging while you shoot the new series? As we can't see the series here in the States, would be great to at least see how it's filmed. Safe travels!
I could do some updates perhaps yeah, but proper behind the scenes doesn’t work as what I do is film everything for the bbc and they pick what they want to use 😿
Love the Naughty Lass cooking segment. Crank it with Tobacsco!!
Ghost ship 0.5% is brewed in the normal way then they use osmosis to remove the alcohol so it does not alter the taste. Clever stuff.
Top, top vlog Robbie! 😀 It had it all ...
- Drum 'n' Bass vibes
- Superb filming
- A lovely bloke called Barry
- Sailor tattoo (sort of)
- Beer of the week (sort of)
- Messy con carne
- Lots and lots of laughs
Simply brilliant. The best thing I've watched during lockdown.
You should be on the telly 😉
Good luck with season 2 filming!
Thanks mate ha ha 😉
Good on ya Barry, many more wonderful days to come! You've got a real fine boat there too bud, we're pullin for ya here in El Paso :) Oh yea, Hey Rob =P chili suggestions .. add chili powder and ground cumin ....voila
Chester is a city I know very well. I was born and raised in Altricham about 30 miles away. That was a lovely video Congratulations to Barry. I'm pulling for you friend
Loved the death scene Robie it made me laugh. I need a laugh now I can't use my boat due to COVID-19 and government policy. 🤨
Great to see you back on the naughty Lass, hope you don’t miss having company too much. Don’t know about catching scurvy,I thought you’d got the black spot though before you showed us what it was 😂 good luck Barry,well done mate.
My missus also says I make a mess in the kitchen.
Great video as always and 👍to Barry.
Hi Friend, Good to see you out and about! Here's quick chili recipe...1 chopped onion, mince, seasoning, can of beans and a jar of your favorite salsa. Try that one, It's really good and quick. Peace from the USA
Might try that for hubby! ❤️Dozy and Dim narrowboat adventures ❤️
