You both have very good channels but together you are much better. Love the banter, boats and scenery. Keep it up. 👍❤
Have a good supply of tea, cheese and bread and David will follow your every command! Good Video! 🇨🇦
I found your stroppy rant very entertaining!! Clearly, the rude lock-keeper was unaware of the calibre of boater he was dealing with!🤣🤣Lovely video!
:chuckles: I was just about to comment, somewhat sheepishly, that I too had a good grin at Lorna's outrage :D
@@dallassukerkin6878😄😄Surprised it didn't feature in David's video of the trip also! I think he finds his 'wife' very amusing!
Always good to see you and David having a blast together. There's nothing like doing the things you love doing, with people who also appreciate it. I reckon David could squeeze one of those tiny boats in his van if he tried. :)
He totally could. And should
Its amazing to me that the lock keeper didn't realize who you were!! Of course it seems i have been watching you two, it seems forever!! King of the Canals and London Boat Girl forever!! ❤ to you both from Tennessee
My first view of your channel. Wonderful! You and David are fantastic together!
Thanks Lorna and David for the mini cruise, it was delightful.
Lorna can you go boating with David more often & film all interactions, bickering, comedy moments, water craft moments, eating, drinking, laughter, etc - it'll be youtube gold?
Lorna, this collaboration is awesome… I loved the frank discussion on injustices and the fart and poo jokes equally! Yaaaaay
Thank you 😊
Great story! Thanks to the pair of you for taking us on your journey! And yes...more of these trips please! Really enjoyed them!
Had a chuckle about your rant on the instruction on how to pull the boat. Usually they send me over the edge when they say something like what you experienced AND call me Honey, or Darling or Sweetheart. I did enjoy the joint video.
Great to see you and David on the boat. You do get those know it all people about, thinking he know more about boats attitude .
Single handed boating is an interesting challenge on the Thames. Going upstream I run a long thin line along the roof to the stern, tied at the other end to the bow line. I then get off at the stern, up one of the staircases, with the stern line and the long line on one hand and the staircase handrail in the other. Use the stern line to bring the boat to a halt, and then tie off to a bollard. Walk forward, use the long line to retrieve the bow line and then take a turn with it around a bollard. Take in the slack as the boat rises. Much more control than using a centre line. Several lock keepers commented positively on this system during my trip along the Thames this year....
Really enjoyed this Vlog Lorna. Love the way U2(and I don't mean the pop group) knock off each other to produce entertaining and informative Vlogs... More please.... 🛥👏👏☘
Would love to see more of Lorna and David on tour.
How about Ireland?, because your homeland. Or maybe France or similar for a neutral venue 😅
Lorna... you tell em Girl LOL. You got some really lovely footage. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely video, great narration too. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with little old me just sitting here on my balcony in Newtown, Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 Just a brilliant start to my day.
All the best.
But that lock keeper 😳
Omg, you did well maintaining your composure. All of his remarks were infuriating, but to top it all off with the “ok skipper” grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
🙂🐿🌈❤️
Hi, I think I have found my new narrow boat channel, since we (mostly) lost David. Your photography is glorious. Thank you.
Wind turbines on pleasure boats are usually fitted just to keep the starter batteries from going flat when the boat is not used for long periods.
Thank you Lorna for taking us on your adventure, I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to your adventures on your new boat x
This was great, loved the commentary. Thank you.
Increadible! This trip is fantastic makes me want to hop on a boat and cruise the Thames.
You two narrowboat loveys are charming. Please do the Montmouthshire in the Brecon Beacons one day. You can take a day to hike in the mountains. We used Country Craft Narrowboats and had the best time. Best rant ever.
That was a fun story about moving the boat Thanks for the show From New York
My husband and I just found your channel. We can’t wait to watch more. Your editing and choice of music is very good. We like it when you don’t compete with the music when you speak. We are your new Canadian subscribers.🇨🇦
Welcome aboard 😊
Nice one Lorna. There's a couple of handy campsites within walking distance of Henley-on-Thames if you fancy a day or two for a visit, it is a fine place for a wander. 👋
I did attend the Henly on Todd regatta once, in Alice Springs.
Glad to see you guys working together, I’m sure it was a fun experience.
Thank you very much for the video👍👍👍❤️
What a great boat cruise . As an aside, we had amphibious buses that puttered through our river, and then rolled on streets forir a complete city tour. Then one boat sank with passengers aboard, and they are amphibious no more
Wow! Was anyone drowned?
It looked mighty tipsy when it entered the water, I must say!
@@SongOfEire Luckily not. If you google "MAIB Quackers" you will find the investigation report into this incident, and a fire on a similar boat in London.
The one at Windsor really annoys me, it enters at speed without looking to see if there is any traffic nearby.
In the interest of the conservation of energy, I have copied and pasted my comment from Davids's video. Didn't want to type that out again 😋
It's like a two for one deal 😎 Here's hoping that you and David make many, many more🙌 Thank you for entertaining 👍
OK so I changed the names. That's key strokes I'll never get back 🖖
😂😂😂😂Love you Girl. You two are something else❤❤.
wonderful thank you
Wonderful, Lorna. What an adventure indeed. Sorry about David's Isle of Wight joke! See you soon,
John, Ontario, Canada
Why sorry?
@@philroberts7238 Maybe a poor choice of words? I was thinking how one groans at a corny joke but with pleasure, not annoyance. British humour has many nuances.
John, Ontario, Canada
OK, fair enough@@Renovator26
Nice one Lorna, a good double act ⚓⚓
1:33 love the hat! Must get one for myself
Thank you Lorna for bringing your calm hope/optimism to your videos. Winning is never quitting when faced with adversity and you bring this in boatloads (pun intended). Venting rage is a healthy exercise and release of energy. Was David afraid? 😊
Really enjoyed this video, think I also saw a the Maidenhead Railway Bridge in the video as well. That rant was brilliant but there no need for grumpy lock keepers
Hi Lorna and David thank you for another fabulous video why are -people so rude anyway keep up the great work Paul in Kent x
It sounded to me as though he was more unreconstructed rather than deliberately rude. Anyone who says "When you get to my age" hasn't been keeping up!
Setiously my nostalgie niveau was op hoogte geplaatst. Hou van jullie , dank je l❤
No, that rant was justified! God on you, Lorna!
Glad you got to Windsor. We live just t’other side of the racecourse. Great videos🤗💜🌸🛥️⚓️
Beautiful, just beautiful.😊
Great little video - love you & David! 😊
We would like to see David and yourself cruising again. Great video. Thanks both from your Tasmanian viewers.
Stunning!
A reminder that not everyone in the canal community is nice, there are some tossers as well (the guy who told you how to drive your own boat). Nice video, I subscribed.
David’s got his watch and you’ve got your…um….hat😂
Lovely 😘
Loved the lock rant 😂 Tell it how it is !
Poo with a view. Brilliant!!!!! A great video. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it and the previous one. All the best and take care.
Thanks again. It was a great experience. And a great view 😂
@@lornajaneadventures Anytime 😂😂
ive visited Henley a couple of times & its a lovely town and its amazing by the Thames & ive visited Windsor a few times & in 2021 i visited the town and had a little strole along the canel and its lovely along there and the River Thames is lovely brilliant vlog
Lovely to enjoy your view of the trip! I had to giggle when you let loose about the nasty lock-keeper! Women power!!!
Thanks for sharing, most enjoyable.
To go along with Davids humours WITT the term "Untie" the boat should be changed to "UNmoor" the boat . :)
wow that was an awesome adventure by the two of you, watching both Vvlogs, but both so different...
many thanks for the fun!!! At times, on the long stretches, i fully expect to see an approaching sea plane coming in to land,,,remember the old china clippers made by boeing before the war?? yeah,,,one of those!!! HAHA id not want to see any one hurt or damage of boats,,,but its just the perfect body of water to see a great pilot put one down amidst all the homes, farms and fields,,,,,,,be safe,,,,bill in alabama
wow, you didn't kill david! you must be a saint :-))
Just finished watching David's version!
Abingdon was many time a stop off for our groups on the boats since the 70'S when i was barely 3 but piloting our various boats . The swimming pool providing cleanliness and the local a&e providing medical services when i lost my thumb nail almost my whole thumb when inshut it in the toilet door 3 miles beyond the lock and weir . Greetings from a narrow passage of water in Netherlands you 2 ❤
I live next to the IJssel and near the Rijn . Breng David and i'll source a boat
I really liked the pace of this video
5:38 perfect rant! Totally with you there Lorna!
Yes it's annoying how some men make assumptions about a woman's capabilities. As a woman who has been an athlete most of my life including lots of weight training and competition powerlifting I don't need 'help' with many things. It's ok to ask but don't assume!
Lovely video, makes me want go boating.
Good thing the “husband” is 6’5 and full of mussels
Can’t wait til one of those lock keepers needs a BSS examiner 😂😉
lovely vlog, loved your little rant. lol 🙂 keep them coming.
Maybe you were a bit grumpy, but damn you're good! If you show him what you can do with your muscles, be sure to video it, it'll make a great episode.
I'd be really interested in seeing more of this type of vlog, you guys are great together.
Hope you feel better.
Power couple on the Thames
what a lovely journey. Good thing you have a bit of duck-like resilience to let those Olde Ffarts helpful comments roll off your back
Have you thought about a shirt with "Jump the Que" on it?
Or "We got to jump the Que" ?
I have crushed on the Thames, the Seine, the Tiber, the Connecticut. The Hudson. The Thames is best.
Thats why I prefer the broads....no locks lol
As I write Waverley is on her way to the Thames for her annual visit.
The poor rowers got lots of hate on David's video.
Not expecting you to know the answer... I'm curious if you know where the Thames turns brackish. Or is there enough flow that it is mostly fresh all the way to the Sea?
I like the perspectives. Thank you.
It turns brackish just past Chelsea and then more salty again past Greenwich. I did a video where I went on paddle steamer Waverley further down the river to Southend-on-Sea. It’s a great part of the Thames
Ref the parable of the red bollard ...
The lockie was quite correct ref the "braking".
As I recall it's all about "tan theta" where theta is the angle subtended etc, etc and Google can supply the rest of the math as I've forgotten it.
Using the rope around the bollard is the best option as can prevent a person being pulled into the water.
You can thank me later after I've saved your life, probably, I expect, no doubt.
Not a bad episode by any means.
So thanks very much for some nostslgia stuff.
And, will look forward to your next joint production. Hopefully you might consider doing some of the dormitory stretches in Inner London.
If ever you get around Brentford I recall there's a pub entirely surrounded by canals and basins. Access is via bridges ... fortunately wide enough for a small dray thingie.
Used to have lunch there about 50 years ago ... so can definitely recommend it ...
another great video
7.43 made it fair way upstream didn't they.
What is it with those canoeists? they think they own the place... I think that same woman had me too, they ought to sign it better.
David should spend his "millions" on a super yacht.
Ok, How'd David get on thid channel? Im clearly out of the loop. 😅
A poo with a view will increase my vocabulaire, hopefuly next week at work some how . I work with outdoor public conveniences as part of my professionel leven
Do you no longer have a narrow boat ?
Farewell to Loverboy
I see how it is. You give the old lockkeeper the what for because he insinuated you weren't capable but you more than happily let David do all the winding on the broken lock down stream. Sounds a little double standard. 😀
I’m sure I’ve seen your boyfriend on a camper van channel
Quietest summer? Why?
I do not promote or encourage disharmony or division amongst cruising spouses however testing it might be at times------ but having followed your canal husband for some time,---- have come to the conclusion -----I am blessed
I live in the other part of this archipelago across the pond from you,,, with two small boats,,,, one,,, the larger one, a Dutch cruiser on the Shannon (the longest river in the British isles) which I have always felt like it was a motorway until I saw the traffic on your side of the pond.
My smaller cruiser, is on the Barrow,,,,(three sisters, Barrow, Suir, Nore) The most beautiful river in wherever you can imagine,, little traffic,, no mooring fees, choice of places to stop,,, history,,, food,,,, greenways,,,,blueways,,,, culture,,,,music and BS to bring a blush to the cheeks.
If the pair of you can find time or/and sponsor would love to watch your take on my side of the world
Well you haven't lost the will to live yet.
Temple island passed it many times .. ah sh!t this video is gonna make me have something irritate my eyes isnt it😢
I concur. More of LORNA & DAVIDS GET AWAY CRUZES,🚣🏽♂🚣🏻♀
