- EPISODE 56
We're pushing ourselves to make distance in the boat to get to the boatyard, we're tired and we're in a rush! It's not quite so fun anymore... We wouldn't usually do this, but we have places to be!! We tackle Foxton Locks and then carry on with the next leg of our journey with more locks the next day! ...........but we love it all really 😉

🎼 BUY BENNYS NEW ALBUM HERE 😊 - bennyjones.bandcamp.com/album/ancient-suit-songs
What is the name of the song that plays at 12:40? It is so beautiful, melodic and peaceful. I would like to buy it if it's available. I truly love your videos. You get to see so many interesting things, and the beautiful countryside, but the thing I like the best is that you two have each other. May you have many beautiful and wonderful years together!
The tracks on this video sound so good. What's the track playing from "let's go" at ~1:45 Benny? Loving that groove :D
Hey the first track is a new one! I'm really happy with it 😊
@@markd3250thankyou for the kind words 😊 his song only exists in the vlogs im afraid!
My dad passed last night.
You are the best narrow boaters on RUclips for sure. Just love seeing you cruising, snacking, bread making, and Alan's exploring, accompanied by Ben's tunes. Don't ever change. The formula is perfect.
Thankyou, that is so kind of you to say ❤😊
Have to agree
It's midnight in Chiang Mai, but I don’t mind, 'cos I'm wide awake watching my favourite Narrowboaters. I bang the _Like Button_ immediately and settle down for my bedtime story 😊
I must say that I'm constantly amazed at Alan's ability to understand that Home is a moving object, and she can nick off for a 5 minute pee or check out the swans nests when they're not looking, then scamper back home _while its slowly moving towards the Locks!_ all the while remaining calm as if this is a perfectly normal feline lifestyle.
My cats would freak out if the house moved (we do get the odd earthquake here 😢).
Thanks you three for a captivating opening into another realm.
Alan, the star of the show...
Hehe so glad you are enjoying it!
A really well summed up comment! Also I’m endlessly amazed by how my cat manages to understand the same moving house concept, she’s been a house cat for the past decade, and would get lost on terraced housing streets after being out for 5 minutes. Not street wise at all. Boat life is now her retirement and amazingly she just gets it. Didn’t think a older cat could learn these things but she has just taken to it like a proverbial duck to water. 😺
Your life is like a painting
Needed a smile today. Thanks folks...love you to bits! X
Glad you enjoyed it, it means alot to us ❤
Ty that was nice I saw 1929 that was the year my dad was born shows how old I am 73 now and loving life
Alan is such a cool cat. We love watching her.❤
I love your music, I'm an old lady now but it reminds me of my youth and more care free time
Another wonderful vlog! Love to see those flights of locks, but appreciate it's a bit harder when you are tired. Look after yourselves guys.😊
Always a joy when your vlogs pop up on a Saturday evening.
Loved the scene with Alan and the bunny who in some sixth sense sort of fashion were aware of each other.
Have you guys bumped into the Narrow boat pirate yet ? You would know when you met Heidi and her sweet dog bonnie trust me she’s great 😊
I watch her RUclips posts as well x love her posts too x fantastic lady xx
Bennys music is so good.
Alan on standby for bread dough sitting 😸
The easy way to get off the silt when your stuck, is to use the engine, push the tiller hard over away from the bank and go hard ahead, this will push the stern into deeper water then back off into deep water and carry on !
I always enjoy the music on here.
Must cost you a bomb getting a taxi feel sorry for you,you look so tired.Love watching your life on your boat looks so cosy and waking up to different views I would love.Love the three of you and your adventures look forward to you posting .
Cows are so cool!!!!
what beautiful countryside.
That was quite a lot of locking! Well done got it done.
As a homebrewer I didn't think it was possible to make beer on a boat. I guess I was wrong lol. Cheers 😀 👍 🍻
Lol😂 I just made a comment yesterday about second elevenses and second lunches and here you are second breakfast, I love it, and you two. It’s all so soothing.
What a beautiful canal journey that was , Emily benny & Alan you really make me smile 😊 thanks for another lovely video 🥰
Our pleasure!😊
Loved the music. Thank you!
Loved the tone and mood of this vlog. 👍
Loved the scenery - very soothing.
Another lovely video from you both, the canals are so beautiful and Alan is such a good, my kitties are to naughty. Have a good rest in your beautiful spot and I look forward to you next episode. Your videos really help my mental health so thank you xx
That was fun!
All grand on your vlog hope u caught up on your rest u did look tired out tc now be goid to yourselves the oldies xx👍🥀👍🥀😊
I love how at 19:25 the reverb comes up just as you go into Saddington Tunnel... good work!! And Alan watching the bunny through the window was awww!
my 2 favourite people in youtube land..these 2 people are what for me youtube is all about..so original ,weird and wonderful..love yiz x
Heya so awesome to hear thanku for the thoughtful words! 😊
Lovely music 😊great video 😊thank you
Thank you ❤😊
Yup! Yelvertoft is in Northamptonshire. Marks the edge of the Danelaw - toft = village in ‘Norse’.
I really enjoyed the video seeing the swans with their babies It was so cute.i can't believe how many locks you had to do no wonder you're all tired.Alan is so cute and the canal was so beautiful with the lovely views you both had. Thank you for sharing.😊😊😽
Nice one didn’t relize Alan had a tool box with a mallet in it she’s one hell of a cat helping you Moore up 🤣🤣🤣Have a top week 🙂😾🥕🎸✌️
I thought it was the start of some amusing cat anecdote, took me a second to figure it out. Alan being Alan, I wouldn't wonder if she _could_ wield a mallet.
Another great video just love you all
Lovely vlog. Bet that 20 miles in a taxi was expensive. Suppose 10mile on a bike to get van is doable but 20miles Noooo 😂 💚
Hi Its Debbie not david xx I love your channel I love everything about it, I also love the way that Alan is not at all bothered where you are and how she just jumps off and has a look round and then wanderes back on she always knows where the boat is. She is one clued up puddy cat she is the star of the show. Have you ever thought of a papouse rather than a back pack have her on your front you could try a large scarf she might like it being able to see your face. I thought the locks were brilliant, it is good there are helpers there to help you through, it would be blimmin hard wprk on your own. Thanks for a brilliant video looking forward to next weeks already thanks debbie not david xxxxx
We love you both so much. Down to earth and so uplifting ❤❤Trevor & Linda
Thanks so much❤😊 thanku for watching
lovely episode....bless you for rescuing that little bird. kindness is wonderful.
I think that was a Shire horse. My Dad used to be a horse keeper on a farm when I was a kid. I'm 87 now, so not completely sure. Maybe someone can say for certain.
I like how you let the cat be a cat and how the cat just travels so well.
Love this channel‼from the island of Gotland, in the middle of Baltic sea, Sweden.
Ah. England! It's great to see it through your videos. The blackbirds, the greenness, the sweetness. Thank you for the music, too.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Another enjoyable video guys, well done. Also very well done for saving the little bird, I also enjoyed the background music 🎶 ❤
Thanks ❤
Love how Alan stays so close to boat and comes back, so chilled. Never any cat I’ve had 😂
You make some of the best videos on youtube the music editing and content so interesting can benny show more cooking and brewing please ohh and not forgetting alan comical cat well done thanks .
Your photography and particularly your 'editing to tell a story' skills just get better and better; the content has always been good!
I am from Tangent, Alberta, in Canada. I enjoy your channel and I like the friends you make, (cows and calves). Even your tired days are eventful for me. I wish you all the best. PS Odd as this may sound...I see you two more often than I see my own children and grandchildren. Thank you.
I was born and raised in Yelvertoft yes it is in Northamton shire
Hi Guys, hope you both get to your destination soon.
As always,loving your vlogs.
Another great video by the two best people in the Canal Videos. For your trips back-and-forth to the van. Why don’t you buy a rack to go in the hitch receiver on the back so it would be easier to load your bike up for the trip back to the new location. Surely Benny sells enough albums. You could buy two or three of them. As always love all of your videos and look forward to your next one
wow great Vvog guys, we hired a boat in 1992, september, did the fox stircase, was awesome....
I really like the music in this one
In the future it's raining so hard so no need to rush
Shire horse 😂
Love you videos. Always put a smile on my face. Justbwondering where you stripy jeans are from Emily as they are exactly what I have been looking for for months. Thanks for being awesome 🖤
Your lunch looked yummy, cant beat homemade sourdough bread.
Canal living can be a tad hectic and tiring. Id have to below deck at the locks, they fill me of fear.
Sending 😊's and love.
l loved the music from a couple of minutes in - it sounded a little sitar influenced which reminded me of my time with the Hari-Krishnas. Thankyou for another lovely vlog, as usual your food looked soo nice, you must be two of the healthiest people in the country!
Suffolk Punch Horses are easily that big!!
Thank you for sharing your adventure! I just found your channel and subscribed. Thank you for taking me along. Cheers!
We need a Ben cook 📙
Hi Ben, Emily and Alan, another fabulous vlog. You just get better and better each week. Lovely wildlife shots, loved Alan watched the bunnies, thanks Emily for saving the bird from the canal. Loved everything about this, especially Bens cooking, everything looks really tasty and healthy. Take care you 3. xxxxx
It's a statue of a shire horse with the man guiding the horse pulling an old horse pulled narrow barges full of coal
Brilliant , in a rush = 3.5 mph !
Love the maps...
What peaceful lifestyle you lead know there’s more to it but my seems ideal
It’s a cart horse at Foxton.
Hello there good progress through the flight at Foxton great countryside around Leicester i lived there 1948 to 1965 went to secondry school in Wigston. Leicester is a great old town to explore lots of history. If you have time to go there and explore. You will go right through the center of the city and there is mooring there if you have CRT key. As you the approach the city lots of trash but then it clears up in the center of town. Alan is a cool cat who seems to know what you say and obeys you guys, ok stay safe and well see you next vlog Ed40 S of Vegas
Nice Harp Benny!
oh Alan such a good cat walking along the side while Benny is pulling it
Alan is so nonchalant walking the plank. Loved the video, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Apologies for not seeing you at St Matthews Church, Walsall, but it coincided with a Birthday Bash.
Lovely video. It’s very picturesque around that area isn’t it. 😊
Always enjoying your lovely videos😊❤ we are currently cruising heavily in a bit of rush to be in specific places! Still fun, but looking forward to slowing down again for sure x
Life, is life. 😎
Thats a fairly typical mooring on the K&A. Depending on your draught, you'll rarely be closer and often much further out. You may also need another plank, to extend over reeds etc. to get to terra firma.
like the new music
Benny, your beer is sounding delicious. Is it an IPA? The hop profile made me think so. Alan looked so cute walking the plank.
Yes it is, I've tried it now, it's stronger than I predicted, but very happy hehe.
Loving 💕🥰your music whilst you were moving the boat 🤗👏🏾👏🏾 cheered when you went through the tunnel without a hitch 🥳🤩🤣🙌🏾🥂little Alan 🥰
👍👍👍
Particularly Beautiful views and music this week. That sequence with the white horse and the. The yellow flowers was lovely. So glad Alan has a mallet. Hope you find yours.
Alan is such a great name for a Cat. Enjoyed the tracks too Ben.
Love watching your videos. They are so peaceful. It is years since we took a trip from Ripon to York and back with some friends. Now live up a mountain in southern Spain! I must just add that I love Benny's music, just can't decide who he reminds me of.Take care you two - and Alan of course. 🥰
When you are in a rush [peanut dust]..... Chabuddy G
hi you to have you notice it seems every secound year it gets really hot and the other year it is really crap rain anyway enjoy you boat travel
Emily- great running commentary, Benny- great music!!, Alan-MORE ALAN, MORE ALAN, MORE ALAN!!!
Heheh thanku!
OMG I want to live the Narrow Boat life so badly, but I'm an American and we don't have that life here.
Another lovely Vlog, thanks for posting
23:38 "thanks so much to Alan for helping us moor up" - I thought you were being sarcastic about the cat for a minute
Lol when you were talking about Alan helping you moor up we thought you were talking sarcastically about the cat ... then realised! Are you coming all the way down the Grand Union or going off down one of the other canals? We're making our way up the Grand Union shortly. :) Oh and Alan is so obedient ... we need lessons for our cat haha!
Lovely video as always and the boat is looking magnificent.
Hey guys, Steve the singing boat builder here from 'Steve Shier Does Stuff' in Australia. Loving Benny's album. Thanks for the fast delivery. My wife Amanda and I lived aboard a 44ft boat for a year cruising the Coral coast of Queensland , all while renovating her from bow to stern. Fun fun fun Now I'm building a 53' Flat Bottom River Boat so we can get back on the water. Keep up the great work guys. Cheers from Steve and Millie the wonder dog.
Loving those tunes Ben...very Hawkwind ish if you don't mind me saying. Beautiful man X
Shire horse
Would love to know how much influence has the whole narrow boat experience had to your creating great music?❤❤
Thanks guys, your videos make the sunshine even when it's not 😊 some lovely music in there too Benny! Happy floating, Amy and Sue the 🐈⬛
Really liked the banjo number at the start of the video this week! Thank you!!!
❤❤❤❤❤😊
Have you both ever thought about coming off the canal in the future and go on normal rivers now and then to try something different than just boating in canals 🤔 just a random thought I just had while watching this weeks video 😊
I live in St Neots, Cambridgeshire and our river is the river Ouse and when my brother had a boat, one of many, I’ve only ever been as far as st Ives, Cambridgeshire and just past st Neots. But I’m told that it’s one of the best rivers 🤔 I know it’s long way, but who knows, maybe in the future you’d consider that 😊 keep up with your videos and content 😉 Tel from St Neots
You both make me smile and that must be a good thing. Now relax 🤗
Really, REALLY loved your music this week, Benny. Is it from your latest albumn, or it it new? 🎸😍
Hiya there, yeah these are new songs, there's gonna be a new album in a few months, and plenty of new tracks for the vlog 😊
THAT WAS FUN... ALWAYS SO KOOL TO HEAR BENNYS BEATS ROLLING THROUGH THE CANALS..... FANTASTIC!! GOD BLESS YA ALL. HAPPY CRUISING...
