😂 “I got a bit carried away” I think that’s my life motto 😂
You did Fabulous Emily
Excellent job Emily. I’m so jealous of people that are so crafty.
Well done Emily! Never underestimate the power of a woman! 👍🏻😉 Love the idea of the corked wall, it looks fab & also provides some insulation. That little wood burning stove is so awesome! You could even use the box it came in. Stain the wood, then put a cushion on top…..voila…. You now have extra seating with storage! Hope your 3 gigs go well for you Ben 🎸🎶🪕🎼 Can’t wait til next weekend to see what you two & Alan 🐈⬛ have been up to. Take care & have a great week! 💕🇨🇦🍁
What kind and gentle souls…
Loved it when Benny responds with “You always impress me “ …
Honestly, coming from someone much older, that’s all that matters…..what you each feel about the other!
We don’t really count with our opinions in the overall scheme of things. I, for one, just enjoy watching as id never heard of a narrow boat OR that people traveled/lived on these canals…
Truly, I had no idea how many there are in Great Britain and Europe until your video popped up last year.
I’m hooked now ❤
You did FANTASTIC job, Emily! I’m always so amazed and proud of you both….for your skills, adaptability and talents! It’s your gentle spirits that have me hooked…..
I’m not sure why I felt need to comment when watching this time???? But…I did.
Yes. I do watch the videos more than once if I need to be uplifted during a difficult time.
Thank you.
You never fail to leave me feeling so much better than before….no better thing can be given, my friends, than this…
You make a difference and there’s always a “ripple effect “….
Blessings from the west Texas desert,
Nancy
Was half expecting to find the Arc of the Covenant inside that crate xx
Seriously, you two can have your own fixer upper narrowboat channel. It’s obvious that you both are handy with tools.
Well done Emily on bed build. Like the Cork idea. Love the tiny wood burner. Consider building a platform maybe a foot high,tile it then put stove on top, that way the heat won't just be going just to your feet. You also could use the underside to store mini logs. The same would look lovely in the bedroom. Every week I look forward to seeing your new boat build.💚
Emily you are a legend. Bed builder extraordinaire. So talented
Well done you’re doing so well Emily xx
Just been watching your video on bed building & as a builder for 35 years, all I can say is that you are doing a great job, REALLY impressed, keep it up Emily! , p.s. Ben is doing a fantastic job on the other boat , cracking shows, well done! , Sean.
Good job, Emily. Your new bed looks really nice. Ps. Your smile is sunshine for my soul. See you next week.
This was like a Christmas video! New bed frame, new mini stove, new solar panels! Even a piece of candy for Benny lol. I am also super impressed with carpenter Emily, just wading into the project and getting it done. Good stuff guys!
Benny, The hole on top of the stove is to have direct flame onto your pan or kettle, remove to cook then replace afterwards :)
Wow! I am so impressed by you both. Taking a blank canvas and making into a multipurpose 21:23 place and then building a bed on your own (with some help from Benny). Good on you!
Inspirational is what you are Miss Emily! Totally massive Girl power! I’m glad that Alan checked over your handiwork!
Benny, what super cute burner! Can’t wait to see how it will look in Rambler!
Well again ,I just love what you two get up to! No nine to fives and oh so entertaining.
Alan is so chilled. I want to be like Alan. X
Great experience you are having Being independent is a vital necessity..
Hats off to you, stay safe.
I loved that benny said , you always impress me to Emily ♥️ lovely 🥰
Nice one . Emily. I take my hat off to you .. there are not many who would attempt to make a bed.i am glad that you are all well and safe..
That’s actually so impressive that you build a bed from scratch 😂 once you get the DIY bug, that’s it!
Well done 👏🏻
How cute is that little heater, it will look amazing in your new boat
Well done Emily on the bed build xx
Right smart Emily! You’ve got two carpenters on your boat. I love what you’ve done! Great vlog you two! 😊❤
Awww Emily you are a star built that bed hands down well done good luck to you both luv the oldies 🌟🌟🌟👍🤗👍🤗
I enjoy your programmes, amazed how clever you both are with your DIY. Keep the programmes coming.
Nothing wrong with your woodwork Emily, how cosy is that going to be with a small log burner on the wall and off the floor with wood storage underneath it so you can watch the flames when laying in bed on a winters night. Pull out box drawers with casters on the back end and you will get a ton of stuff underneath,
Well done you..
OMG...that is a right beautiful little stove. Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside just looking at it. Lol
Great job on the bed! Well done Emily, impressed with your skills!
I always try to leave your vids alone, at least till Sunday.. I fail every time. The Burner is too cute! Bed looks so good❤❤
Me too. Look forward so much to each episode. I think your cheerful attitude to life is so appealing. I am watching here and cheering you both on as I see your vision unfold. Emily, you have done great and so brave to tackle this project. Fab job. Well done and well done to you too Benny with the conversion of Rambler. It’s coming on so well. Have a fab week.
EVERYTHING IS LOOKING GREAT GUYS! AND IM IN LOVE WITH ADORABLE LITTLE ALLAN!❤😻🐈⬛
I feel like am watching 2 RUclips channels in one it’s absolutely amazing guys ❤
Hay that crk was a good idea and was surprised how well it stuck to the wall excellent job
How exciting, its like christmas. Love the little stove. You are both so handy and the bed is great .
I am so proud of you Emily well done
Well done to you both. You are so talented, and it must be so satisfying to be able to say I/we did that. ❤
Both boats really getting a makeover! Well done the both of you 👏 You must be super pleased!
Ahhh Emily - you did a great job. You should be really proud of yourself 💗
Great work Emily...and Bennie too. Thanks for sharing you projects.
You two are the cutest couple on the cut!
Wow… you two don’t stop! Well done Emily on your diy skills..👏🏻👏🏻 and I love the little stove on Benny’s boat, can’t wait to see it lit and puffing smoke😊
Thank you for letting us enjoy your home leveling up! You will be much more comfortable this coming winter❣️
You guys are smashing it. The bed looks so good and the little boat is coming on so well. You both should be so proud. Well done!
Thanks so much! 😊
Congratulations on the new builds, too the both of you!
Well done…nothing better than spontaneous renovation…you just have to do it…stay safe..
You guys are so clever. Emily, that was a great , project really great. I can't even make a wood box that is anywhere near square. Between the two of you is there anything that can't be built, made, wired up, glued together, etc. etc.. And Hi from Florida
Both boats are coming along rather well. Comfy, cozy and warm if you get the second tiny stove. May travel mercies follow your caravan.
Hi Emily, so glad you did take the bed out. That mould was nasty.
Alan, you are soooo cute
Hello My husband would really love to take a trip on a narrowboat, he's spoken about it many, many times.
Recently I relented and watched some vlogs about it, and am now I look forward to your upcoming vlogs. I am still working my way through all your previous ones which is keeping me busy. I didn't expect to love watching as much as I do. Also I have found and followed Benny on Spotify. (My hubby is a musician too, he just hasn't played in an awfully long time.
We are going to be visiting our children and grandchildren in the UK this December, and hubby is wanting to look into all things Narrowboat when we are there. He's quite excited.
Hope you have a super day, Wendy
Hi There Ben Emily and Alan , What a Great job you have done , your Bed looks Really Good , you have so many Talents Emily , And plenty of room for Alan too, well done , Keep up the Great work , so Thank you for sharing , Take care All , X X 🛏, 👍👍
Tumblehome is what Rambler needs, ask a canoeist. Though, I'd imagine, you could usually touch the bottom of a canal for adding stability, or fasten both your boats together.
Sometimes it can be easier & cheaper to modify a manufactured product than build from scratch - bed slats from Ikea or similar. They could "concertina" up for the daytime position.
Cut a hand hole for a handle, you'll be able to use it from both sides. I don't think your pull out will need locking out, but you could do that on the bed side just as effectively as to the wall. Looks as though it might be a bit long/high, but if the extension folded up it could be handy for retaining the mattress. You could always make it double fold.
Benny love your new hairstyle, it really suits you. Helen 😀& Barney 🐕🦺
I've been really loving your channel and made my first steps towards buying a boat. You've been a big part in that. BTW...Benny, the track 'It is ours' is truly beautiful.
Well done Emily love all the new badly needed storage.Your boat home is so cosy I am retired now and I have time to watch videos when I am not crafting.Ben and yourself are a joy to watch keep them coming.x
In the USA we recently have plywood called Advantech plywood. It's supposed the be revolutionizing floor construction. I think it's highly water resistant and other new features. Might be useful if you make sud frame repairs in the future.
Emily looks great and that little stove so cute haha you getting so excited over the shovel lol made me 😅 not sure that thick mattress will bend but your have a little tunnal for alan to get though sure benny will join her lol. you should be very proud of yourself
Emily has an amazing collection of trousers!
thats a strong well made new bed . that stove is also well made and will be perfect for the winter. cheers.
A 33 minute Ben and Emily video? Could this day get any better?
that would require an extra 10 minutes of just the Allan cam i think
@@kahnzilla you are absolutely correct.
My weekend has been made. How can it get any better than watching my favourite couple
😂😂
Good job Emily! And Benny too of course
I've bought a tiny narrowboat wood burning stove off a narrow boat ended up carrying it down a muddy tow path in the dark about 1/4 of a mile. it's now in my house bedroom a few lumps of coal over night really nice and warm even when the wind is blowing down from the moor .
It seems to be a favourite home for wasps to over winter . Light it quick and shut the door .
Cork is an excellent insulation, maleable, easy to cut and form.
What a lovely bed well done Emily. The solar panels are a good idea on the Rambler. Love the little stove and the crate it came in
The bed is fab! It’s a brand new design!
Hey Ben, if you're planning to use your new boat as a studio, you may consider applying some sound deadening material on the sides to improve the sound qualities of your records.
Brilliant job with the bed. Well done Emily!
Using finger holes for the bed slide out handles would allow the same holes to slide over dowels in the strips on the boat side.
well done with the bed! I used cork on my van. It's great, as long as it's glued well, which it looks like you managed to do. And the wee stove! Maybe those compressed wood chip brickettes will work well in it. stay cosy.
I see a brand new sailaway fitout in Ben & Emily’s future.
Great work going on in both boats
You're both becoming "Master Renovators" wuen it comes to these boat projects! Well done you two lookin marvelous. 😊
Brilliant, Emily well done on the bed build.
I like how cooperative and kind you are with each other and how you take adverse situations in your stride without over-reacting and making a big drama about everything. Keep up the awesomeness.
Well done both of you. Loved the little wood stove. Bed looking very good too.
Best wishes to you all (including Alan).
Take care.
OMG that so dinky cute stove...Emily your so clever bedroom is going to look fab... Alan will be climbing up the cork walls 😂.. She seems to like it.. Looking forwards to the next video take care guys love you 🙏
Thanks so much 😊 😻
My favorite video so far
I see the clerk of works turned up to check on your work Emily.....bless her she should have her own channel.......😂😂😂😂😂........brilliant as always......Martin.....
Wonderful job. You could intersect the planks to slide out. It’s hard to explain but ikea day bed has similar design. ❤
Omg that little fire is so cute ❤
Ben, my grandmother cooked on a wood cook stove with big oven.
The removable cast iron plates on the little new wood burner are good for cooking, much less fire is needed when placing a cast iron skillet over the hole so it seals it mostly. Open windows when doing that, and have a CO detector.
The antique stove was in the family vacation cabin.
woohoo well done Emily you made a bed... so congratultions..
Ballast is important for the small boat if most of the weight you are now adding is above the waterline. Being top heavy can be dangerous. If the boat sits more in the water it will be more stable and will be less inclined to lean when you put weight on the port or starboard side. Charles
Hahaha I knew Emily would be obsessed with the wood burner!
I’m thoroughly impressed with you both!
If Rambler gets too wobbly in the High winds of Winter then you could always use containerd liquid( 1 litre= 1kg) as a temporary ballast. I believe Home Brew has a very high liquid density, especially when taken internally. 🙂
🤣
😂@@BenandEmily
Emily!!! No eye deer you were such an Artisan. I know it's not basic joinery (any idiot can do that. I know, I did), it's well strong lap'n'screw joinery. Benny ol'bean, that plate on your stove is for a pot or kettle but if you were to remove it and concentrate a good jet of air through the open stove door (you'll figure that bit) bish, bash, bosh stir frying with a 2 person wok. Bon Appetit. (don't forget a thumbs-up & comment if you like my suggestion). Bye!!
So much going on! You guys have an incredible capacity to take things on and complete them. The stove is wonderful but you will have to feed it continually so slow burning fuel will be best. The bed is terrific & of course Alan has been invaluable in overseeing everything.
17:10 staff assessment
Emily, you are awesome!
Keep up your amazing videos, we look forward to seeing them every week , oh & love to Alan 👍.
I love the bed!! You did and awesome build Emily and Ben a little too!!! LOL
Well done Emily - so impressed with your carpentry skills - You made a super bed frame !!
Also well done to Benny on all you've done inside and outside of Rambler !!
I also love Alan's new super cosy bed- looks very warm and comfy.
Cheers guys 😊
Lock-hopping ? Ripping out mouldy floorboards ? Yes and yes. Love it ❤😊. New stove heater ? I know which heater you mentioned, the diesel one. Yeah, cork is good idea
Oh wow Benny. I love your stove. Hope you keep the box also. Its so amazing. Super solar panels.
Love your new bedroom. Well done Emily. Beautiful job. So proud of you both. Incredible building skills.
Thanks so much! 🥰
“Me, Benny and the Crow Bar” sounds like a great name for a band 😆
I'ts our side project 😜

I always look forward to your Vlog.Wow Benny and Emily you both are very skilled. Benny your boat is looking good.And Emily you have done a fantastic job with the bed.Alan she is so cute.Have a week all three of you.😺🎃🎃

You dears need a set of rechargeable walkie talkies to communicate from boat to boat, especially when its cold and rainy!!
They have them already.
