Watching this series for the second time. Wonderful videos that really make me want to buy a narrow boat :) Never be ashamed or embarrassed about your mental health struggles Colin, I know how it feels and I’m so glad you’ve found your rock in Shaun. Love you guys x
As a father, the one thing I wish for the most is for my child to find a partner who gives her as much love and support as Shaun shows in this video.
Get well soon Colin, thank you both for shining a light and talking about mental health, you are just brilliant..
Thank you so much for your generosity if sharing your experience, ups and downs, sunshine and rain. As you talked about staying ahead of the hire boat and your need to arrive at an open mooring, I was so aware of how my nervous system would be feeling if I was on your boat with you. It would be like walking that entire distance with sand in my boots, not a pebble, certainly not a stone that would force me to stop. But gritty, grinding abrasive sand that would rub off the skin and leave me lame for days. That's how the nervous system works and, Collin, it looks like you did everything right. You let your nervous system blow off a little steam, you walked so your nervous system knows it can escape when it needs to and then you gave it some intense quiet. You are so blessed to have a partner and a situation that resources you so you can go through that process. Obviously, you have that blessing because you deserve it. Thank you so much for the sunshine you both bring to my life.
Colin we deal with mental illness in our house also. It's very difficult, but please know that I think of you and Shaun often. It's very hard I know. You have my admiration.
Colin and Shaun. You both bring me so much pleasure. Watching you two in your escapades is fun and enjoyable. Colin, we are with you and only and what's best for you. You are the strong one for being able to deal with your issues as bravely as you do. And you're right, Shaun is a hero!
Ed from California.
It's surprisingly good to re-visit your canal travels, and to see Dylan again - that must be a wee bit tough for you both but it is lovely to see him again, I'm very keen to see your current adventures with chickens etc... but certainly don't feel short-changed by being offered a revised re-watch... all the best to you both and big hugs for Colin's recovery. G xx
Another great vlog, Thanks guys and Thank you so much for raising awareness with regards to mental health issues ❤️. We moved onto our boat for a quieter, calmer more relaxed way of life and what an adventure we've had navigating the canal network on our narrowboat Mi Vida Loca' (My Crazy Life 😊). I'm also supporting someone close to me who suffers with depression and has done for many years so I truly understand Colins struggle.
10:44 Relevant to right now as it's Mental Health Awareness Month. I'm grateful for your forthrightness. Thank you for sharing your struggle. ♥️💙💚💛💜🧡♾️
Hi guys! What a really lovely emotional film. To me, your filming mirrors the honesty and integrity of u both. At times it is 'up close and personal' and at others, when the drone goes up there's a real sense of perspective, light and clarity. You guys have no idea how your films lift and encourage me even in the darkest of moments. Sometimes all I can do is lift my head off the pillow and watch u with one eye open, and when I do I don't feel so alone. Much love xxx
I'm deeply hopeful that at some point in the very near future, we'll just be calling it "health". We should not distinguish between physical, mental and sexual health, but recognize they're all equally important, without stigmas or labels. Thanks for sharing!
I can empathise as I suffer too with this, in January this year my mum passed away, one of my dogs had a stroke,( thankfully recovered) and I was diagnosed with heart failure. All in one month. But one of those small thinks I find so cathartic is watching your videos, kinda gives me hope for better things.
I Really am enjoying watching these Vlogs again. It’s like Visiting an Old Friend that you’ve not seen for a while. Thankyou Both for taking such time and effort to make such Wonderful Footage of the Inland Waterways of Britain.
Thanks for re-releasing the early days of your adventures. Very enjoyable to watch once again.
All you can do is keep up the struggle. Its heroic.Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for showing this, I am dealing with multible mental issues my self, and it is a relief seeing that not every body out there are "normal".
Well done for sharing this, it's something that deserves discussion widely.
Hi Colin & Shaun I love watching your Foxes afloat and your new spin off episode''s. My name is matty.im an Artist and musician From Liverpool but now I'm living in Wigan on a rough arsed housing estate. Nightmare 😱‼️
I'd love to be able to get away from these mutant's in Wigan but me & my wife are stuck here. The first thing you notice in Wigan is the constant NOISE. Day & night. It's like being on the set of the film deliverance. You know the lad with the Banjo ,ha ha 😂. You got to laugh or you cry; anyway, My metal health is very bad myself. I have suffered from childhood with severe depression, anxiety and panic attacks , agoraphobia and also at times night terrors so I really empathize with you Colin. I see you as an ambassador for the mentally ill. A voice in the wilderness.
Like the REM song,
everybody hurts, .everybody cries; your a great human beings you & shaun.its brill that you have eachother. Like myself with my wife Lindsay. We have our
💖 soulmates 💖. We love you both. Stay strong 💪. Love & best wishes matty & Lindsay
It's great to go back and relive your canal journey. Also good to share the mental health event. My wife has been dealing with depression for years a result of her Huntington's disease and the last year or so expanded to random outbursts. Such a blessing you are there to support each other.
Awe Colin, Take Care and Shaun is Your Rock, Brilliant Video again, Take Care Both of You, XXXX
Thank you for being so open about mental health issues. We salute you! Bonnie in Arizona
Such a powerful episode! You two possess such bravery!
I started watching your channel randomly and didn't even realise you were a couple 😂 I never realised until I saw the meltdown and saw how patient and caring you are towards each other it's really inspiring tbh.
Have you ever come through the west midlands?
Hi Colin and Shaun. Think you did really well showing this. Just allows people to understand more great vlog. Loving watching it all again
As always, bringing us inspiration and joy. Thanks will never be enough for all that you give through these wonderful episodes :)
thanks again for lovely informative adventures! I work as a mental health OT so i get you Colin, you are insightful about your problems which is a valuble tool for managing your mental health, also you have the wonderful Shaun to catch you! ciao you lovelies
Nice to see this series pop up on my list.
Your narrowboat videos and narration are excellent.
Always interesting.
I wish you were back on the canals if for nothing else, the scenery.
Hi! I discovered your channel through watching other narrowboat channels and I like them all. What I love about the two of you is that you are funny, informative, and honest about yourselves! When you discussed mental health and the tears flowed I was happy to see the honesty. Thank you and I’ll keep on watching! Keep being you!
Thank you and welcome! 🙏🏻
watching again. never gets old.
also always moves me to tears - your bravery and courage to share the 'downs' which gives me courage to fight my own 'downs'
Sending love, admiration and well-wishes to you both💙💙
Enjoyed watching this again. Full of intetesting narrative and lovely visuals. Thanks and a big Thankyou again Colin for your out spoken honesty about your mental health struggles. Admire this very much though I know this is not your aim. I hope you get comfort knowing how much you have helped and still help, those who suffer from these debilitating illness's. 👍
Thank you blessings to you
Love watching these again! Sorry you are poorly-sick Colin, sending healing hugs, love to all three of you! XXX
I find that helps with my stress. Is either to go for a walk in the forest with my dog. Or I do painting I am not a brilliant artist.
Colin, from my heart I wish you all the best for you. I´m having mental issues for some decades now.
You two are awesome!
Happy memories 😊We had a 23ft Norman cruiser moored at the Jolly Roger near Catforth on the Lancaster canal in the 1980’s
Glad you shared situation. We care for you both.
So happy to hear from you two! I cannot get enough of the aqueduct footage! Love you both:)).
That’s what I miss Colin’s comments & information xxx
Beautiful scenery. I never see you swatting flys or skeeters. Are there any?
Love the channel. Love your canal trips/travels
I've missed you. Welcome back.
Seeing this makes me want to watch your vlogs again for the 4th time! I love the Lancaster canal and if I won the lottery I would definitely donate a couple of million to help it open to kendal!
Massive love to you guys, this is a great series so far. Keep your head up guys we’ve all got your back 💪🏻
Thanks guys, a brilliant vlog. x
I love your videos guys. Brings me joy to this crazy world. Please stay safe and healthy. Blessings from America...
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing.
thanks for this it has me so much happier
We love you both so much, you've brought joy to so many, I hope you know many of us wish we could hug you both. 🥰
I have been watching your series and loving it. I got a clip saying that Collins was not feeling good, Hope he is feeling better soon . I hope it is not enything serious. The two of you guys are fun to watch what you are doing in your lives. Thanks for great videos.
Made me cry.....
Me too 😔
Another episode!! Thankyou guys.
Keep on rocking.
big hugs. The really big ones!
It takes courage to share such vulnerability. Thanks. Couple of thoughts- 1) Removing triggers doesnt improve resiliency. 2) A breakdown once in awhile is also normal for neuro typicals -its just human. 3) For sig dysregulation, have a plan pre-made. 4) Sometimes a little bit of anti-anxiety meds helps for a neurological reset. And humour of course!!!!
Great to see again!
Of course wonderful, thanks guys, great memories. 💕
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing both the good times and bad. 💕💕
It’s sort of reassuring to know I’m not the only one that goes through these things…I mean, I know they do, but people rarely talk about it, not like this. Thanks guys xxx
What an adventure!
Great video really enjoyed watching that.
Greet to see this, as a fellow ASD there are tiem when it is just to much and you need a fe wdays. But, it certaimly seems the new surrounding where much better and hopefully your new new surrounding witll be just as good.
It's Friday at four O' Clock, Yay!........Wait a Minute.
Hi Boys. Hubby and I have watched all your eps and are now enjoying your Britain business narrowboat series. Question, as we live in Sydney Australia where we don’t have canals can you let me know how do you know there is an empty mooring ahead. In this ep you got there just before a hire boat.
You don’t know, there’s alway somewhere to moor xxx
Lovely to watch again 👍👍
No-one who hasn’t had a depressive episode knows what it’s like…not even the nearest and dearest who suffer with us, but can’t know what it’s like. The helplessness of it is overwhelming. Having a partner like Shaun is essential. The one things depressives need to understand is that it will pass…..it always does. Days? Weeks? Months? Even years…but it does pass. I think of it like a wave…sometimes my wave is little more than a gentle rise in water level, sometimes, it’s all-consuming and rolls over me over the course of many months….but it does pass.
Lovely video chaps!
Just great one thing to say just brilliant love it always watched you always will lots of love guys ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Brill 👍🏻
I love watching great stuff lads I would rather watch this than anything else best wishes Anne Newcastle ♥️♥️♥️
It’s a lovely view know it. And Lake District tour on 555 bus would be nice for you.
Hi Boys, I love watching your vids. I know that you are contentedly settled on your farm now, but could you shed some light on something I never noticed before in the movie "The Bargee" with Harry H. Corbett? I saw a scene where he and Ronnie Barker had their barges lashed together. Was this a common thing then? Any light you can shed would be appreciated. I feel for Colin as I too have meltdowns but I have severe PTSD caused by attacks on me that were very serious.(I won't elaborate here).
My old stomping ground. Thanks for the memories boys. Love to you both. Viktoria.
What a episode….bit of everything. Hope you are improving Colin and being good. If you are maybe Sean will let you cuddle a chicken. Whatever helps!
If people can figure out how to build those beautiful aqueducts I can figure out how to make it through the day... ❤❤❤
Sending love and huge hugs to you both xoxo
good vid
Just wanted to give you an manhug there, smack on the shoulder and say its gonne be alright mate. That would be to easy he?
System overload, i get it. Trust your boat, trust Sean, be home, and onwards we go!
I'll have a little drink on both youre wellbeing tonight. Chears mates, keep it up.
Stick with it my daughter got ADHD
❤️❤️❤️
What happened to the news of your small holding?

Wishing Colin a speedy recovery.
