    On The Rum Wench, Heidi sails,
    With her small dog, Bonnie, and pirate tales.
    A narrow boat, their home so free,
    On calm canals, they live with glee.
    Heidi’s a pirate, with a twinkle and grin,
    In her floating shop, treasures within.
    For kids, she sells pirate gear,
    With Bonnie by her side, always near.
    She’s known to enjoy a wee drink of rum,
    Laughing and singing as evenings come.
    A life on the water, both wild and quaint,
    With Bonnie and Heidi, life’s a vibrant paint.
    In every port, kids gather ‘round,
    For pirate tales and treasures found.
    Heidi, the pirate, with Bonnie her mate,
    Sailing the canals, their adventures are great.😁

    Seeing the Broken Cross and Salt Barge brought back happy memories. Before I bought my own boat, we used to hire from Anderton and would often stop at the Broken Cross. We would stop at the Salt Barge on the last night before returning the boat. One time, my older daughter who was then 14 managed to exchange mobile numbers with the young lad behind the bar without me being aware of any flirtation and, before I knew it, they were dating!

    Its nice to see Bonnie getting out and enjoying the good life with you also moving on, exploring and concurring places where hidden treasures are yet to be found, as you have sailed the seven seas
    Exploring all the land with pickaxe and shovel not to mention Bonnie digging for bones.

    I live in a nice cottage.
    There is a farm field adjoining my side garden
    The sea is 2 miles away as the crow flies.
    A woodland five minutes up the side road.
    And about 30 houses in the village. So almost idyllic.
    The only downside is I live on a trunk road.
    Now I know we can't have everything and I know things don't always go right on a boat.But Girl, I would swap with you any day of the week.
    Once again THANK YOU . Already looking g forward to next Thursday and another video

    Heidi, what you want to do to stop your chimney tar running down and spoiling your paintwork, is get a strip of material (old tee shirt is good) and tie it around the base of your chimney at the chimney collar. If you change it periodically it will absorb the tar and stop the runs.

    Thanks for sharing your week with us Heidi. Loving the new steps, and you made a lovely job of polishing the side of the Rum Wench. I could see your reflection in the paintwork! Looking good! 😄

    Dear Heidi and bonnie
    In this video, Heidi, I noticed your tiller pin. For some reason it caught my attention. Have you always had that one or have I not been observant?
    Thank you for showing those three boats that are for sale.
    Regards and happy cruising.

    Heidi, you cracked me up when the canopy came down on the Sea Otter. Your vlogs are so informative, beautifully filmed, scored and fascinating. Thank you for sharing a Pirates Life featuring Bonnie! ❤

    Another lovely vlog, with an early morning of Bonnie investigating the 'lug stones'. I also hate seeing sunken vessels on the waterways, especially if they are somebody's home. If the hot weather is getting to you Mum came up with a simple drink that helps. Roses Lime Cordial, a dash of Elderflower Cordial, and then top up with cold water. It has to be Roses (for the sharpness; shop brands are too sweet!). It does work well when you get the amounts right.
    I have a couple of those 'noodle mitts' for when I clean the car. They do a great job, if you are prepared to put in the effort. At least with my car I have about 1/10 of the area to clean compared to 'The Rum Wench'! I will, however, have to 'clay bar' her at some time (and THAT is hard work!). Those stern steps look very useful (but they would not be suitable for 'The Black Cat').
    An Alsatian, a Labrador and a Siamese arrive at the Pearly Gates. Saint Peter tells them "I have to know what you believe before I can let you in". The Alsatian says "I believe in loyalty, faithfulness, and protecting my family." "Welcome", says Saint Peter. The Labrador says "I believe in fun, joy, and bringing happiness to my family". "Welcome", says Sainte Peter. The Siamese says "I believe you are sitting in my chair".

    You can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter!

    Good idea with the steps .You never can have too much storage on a live aboard boat. I think the first used boat would be a pretty good buy because it was priced low enough that it would leave you some money to re-do the interior to your special needs. The boat lift is always a nice part of your videos. Looking forward to more canal experiences, however the river cruise was great. Here is a rum to you, cheers.

    • @TheNarrowboatPirate
      @TheNarrowboatPirate  4 месяца назад

      Yes, that first boat was ready to put your own personal stamp on and make it into a lovely home for the money
