Ice cream is nice with crumble too. You're both doing an awesome job.
I like a choc ice with it as the contrast of hot crumble and cold ice cream with some melted Chocolate is delish.
I think you two absolutely rock! I've read so many comments on this and your previous video, it saddens me that there are so many negative and judgemental opinions.
We get one life, it's not a dress rehearsal.
No-one can judge another's life choices based on what they would or wouldn't do.
I've made many decisions in my 52 years and, even though some haven't worked out, many more have. I have absolutely no regrets. Every choice, every experience, every success and every failure has made me who I am today. Life is an adventure with multiple twists and turns, highs and lows. Embrace every second and do you! ❤ xx
Well I think that life has gone a mess trying to move all that stuff into a tiny boat and a van and then a lockup. That's so tiny as well
@@robertclarke7230 and I think that's quite rude. I was taught that if you haven't anything nice to say, it's best to say nothing
@@Roo-s_Life I was taught that if you don't like comments from the public then don't post videos to the public
Emily you look healthy and so happy. Your beautiful blue eyes are sparkling again and your complexion is so smooth and bright. You two have made a needed change and it’s a good one. Thank you for a very up lifting video.
Emily ,you might be sad , but I haven’t seen you looking so happy and relaxed for a very long time . Take care 🤗
always love this
because she's moving into a van, having lived in one
I would just miss so bad not having a private toilet cubicle.😞
Look on the bright side, you can go to the loo, make lunch, chat and shower all at the same time
Happy Birthday Benny. You two are gonna have a new adventure, so have fun and be careful.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BENNY🎉 LOVE YOU BOTH!
BE SAFE AND BLESSINGS 🙏🍁🩷🩵🌝
Hope you can both settle this time around. You both (especially Ben) seem at your happiest when a huge change comes along and are completely preoccupied. Doing Rambler up, vanning around Europe, selling up etc... I used to be the same but finally found a time for a bit of stillness to go inside and find me a bit more. That's stillness not staleness lol. Good luck 👍👌💫
Well said
Really enjoyed your episode tonight I felt exhausted for you ❤
Best move you'll ever make,,Emily looks more happy and benny goes with the flow,,,HAPPY BIRTHDAY BENNY,,ur like two peas in a pod,,well done❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤😊
Go for that thing, you two. I'm agreeing with you.
🤗❤️✨
Well done you guys. That was hard work. Love watching you…
I'm impressed with your happiness and teamwork during such an emotional task (most of us folks don't embrace change).
● Now you'll never, ever-again, burn an incense hole in a plastic sink 😅
Hi, Ben and Emily. You are both doing what you feel happy with. Good for you.
If I may say a couple of things-not criticisms. When you were talking about what to do with the kitchen-part of the floor in Rambler. We have a tiled floor in the kitchen area of our bungalow and it is so easy to sweep or mop to keep it clean. Would that work in Rambler? I know you have to think about extra weight, but with such a small area, could you get away with using a few tiles?
The other thing is the pronunciation of Pontcysyllte. At the far end of the aqueduct, going from the marina, there is a shop. On one of our four trips, we went into the shop and when talking to the very nice Welsh lady there, I asked how is the name spoken. After repeating it slowly, me being English, not Welsh, four times, I finally got it. It is pronounced as 'Pont see sith te', with a 'short' e, almost as tea.
I hope this helps. All best wishes on your travels. I will be following, all the way!
Try making your crumble with ground almonds and oats instead of flour, it's so good xx
Chopped walnuts are great in the mix
Sounds great! 😋
Wow, you guys have so much energy, so busy and yes, definitely cold custard with hot crumble ❤ 😋
😊😊😊
Good custard is good hot or cold, imo 😊
This has reminded me that I've not decluttered for a long time. When I was moving regularly, I used to have a rule that if I hadn't used something in the last 6 months and wasn't likely to in the next 6, it was chucked.
Thanks for sharing your interesting life. Benny, happy birthday! Your futures look bright.
You both look happy. Life is full of adventures. I admire you for putting Alan's needs above your own. That shows true love. Onwards and upwards. Take care much love x
I'm really impressed by the way you organised this. My only concern would be no private loo or shower space, but I know you guys will get around this! All good wishes, and here's to more adventures!
Tiny homes and cold custard are just the best ❤Good luck guys, you'll be fine xx
You guys are doing well on getting out of the narrow boat and into the small one and the caravan. Can't wait to see what the future brings
Ah. So Benny is an October Libra...
We're the BEST and most Creative, aren't we , 😅 😊
Its not 5 minutes since you needed the extra space to make music, i dont get it.
Aww, you guys seem so happy ❤ It shows it’s definitely the right move xxx
Well done! That was a massively daunting job I reckon. Hilarious distraction of Benny sampling the sink, ( thats the kind of thing that would distract me but you let it go and got on with the job! ) Love crumble with cold custard, hot custard, cream...my mum uses some breadcrumbs in the crumble cos its crunchier. It's all looking good! Exciting! ooooh and Happy Birthday Benny!
Wow you guys got so much done. It's starting to come together. Nice work.
exciting times for you both - new adventures on board Rambler and your camper
Really enjoywatching you challenging your selves 😅
'Kinda useful' love it
How brilliant i can feel your excitement ❤
I got teary-eyed. Happy birthday Benny. Big hugs and love to you both xx
"Rock that Looks Like a Frog"....next album.
Sooo excited for you both! I was exhausted just watching you doing the move in and fitting everything into Rambler and Ronnie. Lovely seeing you both so animated and happy! Looking forward to sharing the next chapter of your journey ❤❤
All the best for your move. Love the way you are so relaxed during a chaotic time. Love 💕 your sense of humor in what could be a not so fu NY time. Congratulations and best wishes for your move 😊😅❤
Hi Ben Emily and Alan , Hope you are all well , Great video and all very interesting to watch , Thank you for Sharing , Take care .XX👍👍
That was a mammoth job. It’s looking good. I look forward to seeing the new living arrangements. Thanks for sharing.
Cold Custard all the way
I think it might be us missing Roisin more than you two. Eat all your apocalypse food: we're looking forward to it - please make date squares with fresh orange juice, and orange rind. They're so good. The engine works on Rambler - that's a joy.
Applesauce, apple pie, apple butter too. Yummy
What a job! Great that you got so much done. Happy birthday Benny.
Happy Birthday Benny 🎉🎂🍾 you both look healthy and happy 😃 Take care.
Cold custard, a must 😂. Thanks guys for taking the time to share despite being so busy.
What a nightmare moving is! You coped amazingly! l hope you make a lot of money from the things you are selling, and best of luck for what is to come. l think you are both so brave and wonderful!
Happy birthday Ben. You two are special
Happy birthday, Benny!
Exciting times! You two are just great at nomadic life, very cool.
Thankyou hope you get settled in ok take care
🤣😂I feel your excitement, so funny.
I’m excited for the two of you….much luck on your new journey….rock on !!
It looks like an amazing new adventure and wish you well.
Yes Ive got lots of those things that might be useful. So hard to throw away 😊
I agree you both look so happy and excited
Thank you dear people you are a joy to watch - every blessing on your very wise move all looks cosy and practical Happy Birthday Benny
That was great thank you
Good for you!
I moved into a new home and put a lit of stuff on my shed after 18 months My father in law hired a skip and helped me throw everything in there. He said if I hadn't used it or missed it there was no point in keeping it. He was right! I've since moved onto a boat and my God have I done some trips to the tip. But I'm happy now.
Happy belated birthday Benny!
Oh my , so much stuff! 😊
⏰️ 🕒 🕕 🕓 ⏰️ 🕒 🕕 🕓 clocks go back one hour tonight 😂😂😂😂😂
I watch your show all the time.Your guys are awesome
There is a lot to be said about having a tidy every month so things don't get out of hand ~
Also, storing like items together is a very good rule of thumb ~
I like the adage ~ if you haven't used something for over one year, pass it on to someone that can a will use it ~
Happy birthday Benny! A fresh start for your next lap around the sun!
You both look a lot more happy and relaxed - clearly a big weight has been lifted off your shoulders!
Can’t wait to see how you’ve arranged the spaces once you get done!
We will follow you guys on whatever journeys you take! ❤❤
🥰
Glad to see you guys both looking so happy 😊 my husband and I have loved following your journey for a year now ❤ we were just wondering how come you are moving out of Roisin before she is sold and where will she be while you guys are living out of the van/Rambler? Or maybe that’s a question you guys are already planning to add to your Q&A video next week. Hope you guys get settled in quickly 😊
Great adventures to come👍
Stupendous how you both were able to downsize everything from Raison into little Rambler. That was a lot to do but you did it---Hurray! Happy Birthday Benny!🎂🎈🎉
A little into Rambler, a little into the van, more into storage. Benny also said he's going to try selling some of the other 'useul' junk in some kind of sale...car boot sale/jumble sale; I don't know.
I think their idea is to live mainly in their campervan atm Jenny.
Ahh, i'm sad to see you moving out of your narrow boat, but so happy for you too. Change is an awesome thing. You'll be on your next adventure. Who is BUYING your boat, have you sold it yet??? How much are you selling it for? My sister is in the market for a narrow boat. She would love her as much as you two do. lol
LOVE YOU TWO, YOUR BOATS AND VAN ARE SO COSY.EXCITING TIMES.
I’m trying to work out in my head:
- how Benny is going to record properly in a tiny living space (Rambler was originally just the recording studio)
- using the loo in such a confined space in the main living area
- how Emily is going to work in there too.
The CRT hasn’t helped by raising its licence fees so much.
Either hot custard or ice cream with hot crumble.
Great to see you both excited and happy about the future 🙌 a change will be good for you. Enjoy xx
Add some blackberries or other berries into your crumble that you can find on the town path and add some nutmeg and cinnamon 😉 Add some porridge oats and seeds into your crumble topping too 😉
I sold my boat as it was a pain to keep moving it about,ile follow you two in whatever you do.
Love the music and the content is very heart warming
Keep it up 🙏❤️
What a splendid choice.
Happy birthday Benny have a wonderful time until next time take care
Drill on slow speed when you drill steel. Otherwise you just create heat and noise
I have just had a melt down moving house after 24 years so I feel for you both. It was a nightmare and now I'm trying to unbox stuff into a much smaller country house. Good luck!
Many Happy Returns of the Day to Benny 🥳
Great content. You both seem happier. I think it’s such a good move your making. Making it easier and cheaper to leave your boat to do van trips. Narrowboating on its own can get boring and is very limited. Congrats guys, your living the dream
Hey Bradley! What a very clever comment with the *_"Blue Hyperlink"_* thingy that then lists loads of Narrowboat Channels. Thanks for that marvelous list, some that I know of and am subscribed to, and others that I haven't seen before 😅
Wow, so many things to move and sort out! It ist great and so interesting, how you manage all❤️💪🏽😃. And I love to see your exciting faces and your joy❤️❤️❤️
Hi , You both look so happy & bright best of luck with your new chapter in life . blessings x
You just don’t realize how much stuff you have until you get ready to move!!! 😮Good luck with the major transformation 👍
Professional organisers tend to say if u have not worn it or used it in the last year get rid.Hoarding stuff not good.I love a good clear out and donate to charity shops.Happy birthday Benny and well done u two for working so hard.x
Yes, there always comes that time in a move when one is totally overwhelmed and can’t even think…….keep moving❣️I am wondering where you are going to sleep, in the van then the little boat is your living room?❤ Ok I see😂
Hi guys make some jars of apple sauce..great on oats on a cold winter morning xx
All the best folks xx
Custard. Hot or cold doesn't matter just so long as it's custard! 😃
Brilliant episode
Why is Benny describing it as my sink and Emily as your sink🤔
Yes, I noticed that too Alan...Perhaps Emily is dumping Benny softly 😯Just kidding, I couldn't help myself 😂I think the boat is his mancave for music making, life will be lived mainly in the van is my guess so far.
Who knows what their long term plans are though, Alan.
It's almost like a dragged out cliff hanger, we'll need to keep watching to find out 😆
The organizer in me so wants to jump in and help! I’m in clean out mode right now and have the luxury of time, which allows me to put stuff up for sale on Marketplace and just let it sit till the right person comes along. Moving quickly is hard and you guys are killing it!
I know you explained your reasoning for moving into Rambler and the van but I’m afraid I don’t think it makes sense because of the reason you got Rambler in the first place. I think getting rid of Rambler would be the best option. That’s me, I hope you don’t regret your choice ❤
It looks realy small o my ,hope you tought about it omg ,if you ever want back to a boat .they gonna be more expensive guys
Thats one hell of a job done!
Love Ben with short hair
This ep gave me a bit of clutter anxiety but you two seem to be enjoyig yourselves so it's good
Wow, when you make up your minds! It will be interesting to see how this all plays out for you...new adventures!
Rats on Oregano....brilliant! and I'm only 5 minutes in. You guys always make me smile 😂💚✌
Awww don’t no how you did it moving even decorating makes me physically ill I don’t no how anyone cope well done be happy and Happy Birthday Ben love from the oldies 🎂🤗🤗🍸🍸
Wow, you two are brave. Or are you mad? 😅 Either way, I love your adventures. XXX
Oats make a yummy crumble with butter & brown sugar,
I close my eyes, drew back the curtains
Loving the rhubarb and custard clothes combination, Benny!
Moving is exhausting & you ve done So well,the Crumble looks yummy I ve got some apples of the tree to cook,great video & always fun to see what you ve been upto,take care 😘
