    When you've been married awhile, and your partner goes away for even just a few days, it's amazing the effect it has. You don't really realize how much the ambience of their presence fills the space of your home until they're not there. It's different than if they're just gone for an hour and coming back. When you know they aren't coming back for awhile, there's an empty silence that you can actually feel. Glad to see you're keeping busy and getting some things done. That certainly helps. You'll have to do something special for her when she comes back. Maybe a special dinner, and some flowers or something. You did a nice job of filming and editing this episode!

    Pleased you are keeping up the content even though Danni is away for a while. It gives me somewhere to get my narrowboat fix.
    Over the last year I have subscribed to half a dozen or so narrowboat channels, but one by one I have dropped them all because of the annoying click-bait titles they use
    You and Danni come across as normal down to earth people who keep it real.
    Keep up the good work.

    Jo, put the copper pipe you removed back in place but add a T piece and run the verticle section up above the deck then either bend the top of the tube over or use fittings to make up a U section so the end is facing down to stop the rain getting in

    That was some seriously good photography at the beginning, with the geostationary drone over the canal and the WCML. You went to great lengths to get some really intriguing angles. You could print off some stills, make them into posters and sell them as merch? I actually preferred the greater balance between cruising and chat on this video.

    You want magnesium anodes on a narrowboat - unless you're going anywhere near brackish or salt water (ie. crossing the Wash, which I'd love to see!). Magnesium will give the best protection, but will dissolve rapidly in saltwater, so switch to aluminium in that case.

    Reinstall the top crossover pipe, get a self tapping pipe saddle from the plumbing store for that pipe and run a breather off of that saddle.Try and run the breather close to the fill opening so you can to tell if it is full and not running into your bilge.

      That should work so long as the top of the tee is above the top of the filler point. Not sure if it's the same on boats, but on diesel powered plant, the breather is usually in the filler cap. Can you show the filler cap sometime Joe?

    Re your belt noise, use a can of belt eliminator and use it just on the Alterantor belt.. If its that belt making the noise, suggest its due to the load being put on the alternator at start up as its being asked to recharge, ? your boat battery along with House Batteries.. If thats the case look at a controler to lower the load at start up. or put and auto tensioner on that belt....
    Cheers and keep at it...

They were black with mould and lichen it took a spray every 3 moths and now they are snow white. While I was spraying the cemetary, workers told me it doesn't work, a year latter they said 'Whats the name of that stuff you sprayed on the headstone" just goes to show if you follow the instructions to the letter it will work.

    Just remember, Trainspotters (and planespotters) are people too. 🚂😁 Even so, I took the sound systems out of my model trains, they got on my nerves. Mentioning Heathrow, earlier today had a YT channel playing which was watching jets land at Heathrow in the winds of current storm, and yes, I turned the sound down. 🛬😁 Hmm ... wonder how much effect family relations have on what a person is interested in? Dad and Grandad were each in the Navy and were each pilots for a season or two of their lives & I still am interested in boat and airplanes.

    Quick tip for the squeaking belt if you don’t have the proper belt spray, a little bit of treacle obviously on the v section. Cheers

    • @ItsOhJoe
      @ItsOhJoe  9 месяцев назад

      I bought a can of the spray but everyone told me not to use it, maybe I’ll give it a try but it’s the bracket causing it to be out of perfect alignment to be honest - I need to fix it

    Put a breather on the 22mm copper pipe.
    Have a look at an Auto Air Vent (AAV). They are used in boilers and on heating systems.
    They are to vent air without letting water out, so my not be suitable unless to adapt it to let air in.

    Leave that copper pipe off, you don't need it. The tanks are balancing through the pipe at the bottom. That top pipe is the breather, or at least passes as one on your boat.
