  • While in Llangollen a visit to the amazing Horseshoe Falls was a must in this weeks Pirate adventure. This is where the Llangollen canals gets its water from ... I also leave the beautiful Llangollen basin and start the journey of cruising my narrowboat back down even though myself and many boaters are restricted at the moment due to winter stoppages while canal locks are being maintained but a cruise is a cruise. Also my friends boats gets rear ended so she has to fix her Tiller and Rudder - Just another day as a continuous cruiser!

    The drink - a dead man’s chocolate finger.

    Ahoy Captain Heidi!!! I really loved this week's video. It is very cold in Northern California (USA) right now so I truly understand the stiff nipples comment ... covers the subject perfectly. I really appreciate you doing videos on what life is REALLY like as a narrowboater. You have a lot of similar issues to people who live in Recreational Vehicles here in the USA. You have created a wonderful and happy life that you love but you make everyone aware that there is a price to happiness .. a lot of hard work goes into it. I am relieved that Nikki got her tiller aligned and she is back up and running safely again. I hope people realize that liking your videos and subscribing to them are one of the ways that we as your viewers can help you enjoy your life since it costs us nothing to like and subscribe but you get paid money by RUclips for the number of views and subscribers. I am on a limited income so being a patron is not something I can afford but I come out and watch and enjoy and I push the like button and I am already subscribed so I know that I am helping you enjoy your life and you are helping me be happy by posting your videos every Thursday.

I love the bright sunlight coming through the trees and the camera hanging out over the viaduct. I rented a narrowboat last year out of Oxford it was just wonderful. Lovely pubs, open countryside, and curtains of weeping willow to plough through. Your upbeat vlog is a tonic, thank you so much.

    Oh, I can remember 80 knot winds in Puget Sound here in the Pacific NW of Washington State, on my 1939 40-foot power boat with friends along too. We holed up in La Conner and put out every line and fender we had to hold us to the dock. Later in the afternoon, another boat came in with an older couple running it and they had only two fenders and two lines ... I loaned them fenders and lines and my friends did as well, everything we had was out on all three boats. Kind of like you folks on the canals ... we take care of each other. I've since sold my boat and am now caravaning, but find the same sense of caring in this group as well. Makes me want to vote for someone who owns or owned a boat or a caravan to run this country!!! Of course Nicky would fix the rudder/tiller! We never doubted her. Thanks Heidi, you're the best.

  • @Wolfyjinny
    @Wolfyjinny Год назад +1

    When you travel a mile of canal and realise the work that went into creating it, then think of the other 4.5+k miles of navigable canals in the UK it humbles you a bit.
    I have never set foot on a narrow boat but used to travel local canals with my dad walking and doing a bit of gongoozling, I used to help some of the old bargees with the locks and help split some firewood for a few, I even thought I lead a draft horse over a bridge for one old guy, although, the horse knew what it had to do as it had done the trip hundreds of times- imagine- an 8-year-old lad being lead by a 17 hand gentle giant, I could walk under it without my head touching its belly. stay safe out there and keep your rudder moist.

    It is such a lovely part of the UK. As always love your videos. Keeps snowing here. Hopefully my neighbor will plow the driveway. My abused body isn't able to keep up with the scoop. Playing for a Contra Dance tomorrow. Getting in more and more music. Take care.

    Brilliant Heidi. I thought you was gonna recreate a scene from Dirty Dancing when you balanced on that log 😂.
    Horseshoe falls look amazing, especially from the drone footage.
    Well done Nicky on mending the rudder too 👍 ❤

    Heidi it’s been great watching you do the Llangollen Canal. I watched Anthony and Paul when they did it a while back. I was amazed, we did it a few years ago on a hire boat and the canal wasn’t moving like it was in your vlogs. We so wanted to see Horseshoe Falls but we didn’t have time sadly we had to get the boat back. That was without a doubt the best holiday we ever had so much so we were going home (Australia) to sell our motorhome and go back to the UK and buy a narrowboat. Two weeks after we got home COVID hit. Thanks heaps for the laughs and the great vlogs. Stay safe and warm. 💕

    Hi Heidi:) I've only been watching you for a relatively short while but I'm hooked! I love watching other peoples alternative lifestyles, and although I've mainly watched van lifers and also experience five months in a small van in Portsmouth, I am really attracted to your boat life in the serenity of the beautiful countryside! Stay safe and warm. Paul

    OK - I thought of a possible makings of a song. Let's call it "Listers Thumpen" ... You have lots of the sound of your mighty diesel thumping. You have water gurgling near your propeller. You also have the noise of your Aoogat horn. Add in a few "Arr Me Mattie's" at the end. And, you have lots of background tracks... Just wet your lips... Bob

    The secret to keeping warm is air caught inbetween layers. If you cram on too many layers it forces the air out and you may have lots of layers, but you will still be cold. Lucky ol' Roy. Your paint job still looks great in the winter sunshine. Keep smiling, that way you cheer us all up.

      I did have quite a few layers on, couple of t shirts, thin jumper, thick cardi and nipple warmer 😂 I’m nesh and really feel the cold, yeah the paint job is looking I’m amazing I’m very pleased with it …. Roy 😂😂😂

    Fab camera work on that aqueduct! Also, nice job on showing the storm conditions. Brings the viewer more in to your experience. That's the purpose of the vids, and you do it well.
