What a lovely lady Sue is so kind, generous and thoughtful. Great vid Will.👍
Yes she is. Thanks for stopping by.
Aww Sue is amazing ❤️🏴☠️ so kind … it’s all about the people xx
Hello Mrs. 👍 I'm here now actually doing stuff. Not upstairs though this time. 😂 🤣
Mr Burms babysitting ducklings and horse flies injecting vitamine D, haha that cracked me up, Will.
No matter what, I always enjoy your company and your views of daily life. Cheers
😂 🤣 I find life situations funny.
At least someone likes you she was so kind getting you loads of goodies! 🤗😉
She's such a nice person. 😍
Wow, Sue C you absolute beauty - what a lovely thing to do for Will 🥰🥰🥰
I know. I was blown away. 😳
It was my pleasure, Will deserves some treats, bless him, he works hard to create such brilliant vlogs 😊
What a lovely person Sue C is.
She really is.
How lovely of sue to give you some lovely Presents 🎁 😊have a great week ☺️
Paper and sugar for breakfast, more horseflies, then you get a big bag of pressies from Sue. Living the dream Will 👍🏼
After a paper brekky I'm ready for anything. Toilet first... 🤣
You're so good at fixing things.
Nice 1 Will…👍
Cheers Wales..
That was great.hope you had a great day and Sue that was so nice bless you. Thankyou for a great video.
You're welcome Carol.
Thank you Carol, it was lovely to spoil Will as he always goes out of his way to create great vlogs for us all 😊
And your so funny as well, bless you.
Bless you Carol. 🙏
"Why, I hear my 3 subscribers ask....". 3 subscribers?? Only 3?? Well, subscriber #4 here and I'll have you know that I'm offended you forgot about me! I know my comments are usually bollocks but, geezzzz, 🙄. 😂🤣
A lady in every town to show you around and buy you gifts and offer you lifts. Wow... You've got this all figured out I have no doubt. Don't know why I am rhyming so much. lol Sue C seems like a really good person. She has a beautiful home and her yard, I mean garden, is very nice as well. Maybe you should visit more often 🤷♂. 😁
As always, thanks for sharing. Take care. 👍👍
She is very helpful. A lovely person. 😍
Great vlog again Will 👍🏻 shui and sue c🤔so that’s how you get away with it 🤦♂️😂 gutted for Leon 😩🎧👊🏻👍🏻👍🏻
😂 🤣 yeah.
Please tell me that you’ve been enjoying wearing your shorts and enjoying the lovely last of the summer sunshine we’ve had these past few days 🤗I imagine you would have been heading south to try and join up with Leon if the stoppages weren’t in place and Mr Van was more reliable. Then you would be working full time to get his new boat fixed up and looking sharp for him. 😄the repair and maintenance work never ends for you 🤗 I hope you had a great day in heysham it’s such a lil gem of a place especially in the lil fishing village with the Viking lay out stones at the top of the hill next to the church that overlooks the bay 🤗 Sue you absolute legend I love the grain mafia feed 🤗
We had a really good mooch about. Sue is a great tour guide.
It was nice to buy Will some treats while he’s in the area as opposed to just buying him coffees. I love the term ‘grain mafia’ so it was great when I could rename the duck/swan food 😂
Beautiful couple of days boating on the trip boat this week, make the most of the weather while it lasts!
great vlog on the travel cranking it on the cut thanks for the share on channel nice things you just got thanks lee
Cheers Lee. 👍
"I can't see Sue..." I added a C to the end of that. Wow, what a generous pressie haul. Saucy Sue C... sorry Sue C, I don't know whether you're saucy or not, I just like saying Sue C and adding S words 🤣 I bet those Toblerone thingies have all gone now. I might have to go to the shop. See Sue C? Look what you've done! 😅
😂 🤣 She's so generous. Thanks for stopping by. 👍
Will is so kind and creates two lovely vlogs a week for us all, he deserves being spoilt. Hope you went and got some Toblerone’s for yourself too 😋😊
OMG how lovely is Sue. Hope to see your sight seeing around Heysham and Morecambe in the next vlog. Frequented that area in my teens.
Yes.We had a good day out. I really enjoyed it. 😉
Will is such a kind, caring person and creates such great vlogs for us, it is lovely to have the opportunity to give him some gifts in person while he’s in the area, as opposed to just buying him coffees 😊
@@SueC-oj6zv Absolutely. Really pleased you had a great day. He does keep us entertained.
Sorry your son having hard time with his boat help him out thebest you can❤
Luckily it's been sorted but I did help out. 🙂
Just watching your last one!... I think your tape is in with your fuses! 😂 👍 💚
😂 🤣 😆
This one video is Just lovely. ❤
Thank you so much 😀
Some kind of superpower to stay in one place for weeks!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣that cracked me up. I seem to do plenty of that lately, as well. 🙄driving me bats.
😂 🤣 😆 I just can't do it..Does it take some form of drug and drink inducement?
What lovely gifts❤ My son's student accomodation is on St George's Quay so love the coasters!
Excellent. Sue is very generous.
Happy birthday have a lovely day .Angela
It's not my birthday till December. Sue's early. Thanks anyway. 👍
Morning Will, another great tip about the fishing lines around props. My wife got bitten by a tiny false widow spider three weeks ago and it is in a right state still. Little blighters.
Wow! I've never seen one. 😐 Horse flies kill me. Horrible creatures..
Good morning Will. Another varied blog. Sue was very thoughtful wasn't she. I could hear the M6 hum in the background on some parts, but when I moored on the southern Oxford near Banbury some years ago, M40 was noisy but inside the boat 90% ish of that noise vanished. All that steel!! Autumnal starts to the day are here, but still with heat eventually. Enjoy the day and keep busy (on the golf course 😂😂). 👍👍. Paul.
Hello Paul. Yes, the m6 is very close the further North I go. At the end it's horrible. The A6 is pretty noisy but I must admit, traffic jams are rare up here. It's great getting about. Good model boat weather. 🚢
It is indeed. But take layers gloves and hat so you can remove them as temperature rises! I have sailed the model canal boat in ice. But has to be very thin of course.😂😂. Even rescued a broken down tug in the ice.👍👍
What a lovely lady.
I know. ❤️
The dome shaped structure looks like those local authorities use to cover their stocks of road salt for gritting the roads.
I bet you're right there. ✅️
Wow Sue C she's some girl for one girl how kind Will. Poor Leon isn't having much luck I remember you questioning the electrics when you were both checking out his new boat. Anyway Will look after yourself and tiller man 😊😊😊
Hello Stewart. You're right. I wasn't happy with the whole setup. 😕
A marina should know this. Perhaps they did, but the customer didn't want to pay..
Wow you've been spoilt...
Lovely lady.
Enjoy your trip.
Kev the brinklow kayaker
Thanks Kev. Hope you're enjoying the weather. Great for kayaking.
@NarrowboatWill not kayaking lately.
More HAM amateur radio stuff car stuff usual spend money on dm lol and been on holidays no time to kayak.
Back doing a few youtube video again soon... kev the Brinklow kayaker
Hey Will, you clean up pretty nicely, man.
Ahhh cheers. I don't clean up often. 😂 🤣
Hello from Florida. You say it rained every day in July but you couldn’t find a positive side. The positive side is the canals are filling up no more shallows.
That's very true. It could've rained at night and sunny in the day. Selfish weather. 🤣
Yet another stunning video from you will .. very interesting and informative. As usual.
P s. If you ring c r t . Telling them that you have a problem .. with something ??? They are normally pretty good at letting you stay somewhere for a few weeks..
Will burnt wires and shorts are normally due to bad earth connections.. check to see if the earth terminal on the battery is getting hot .???
Anyway will as always keep yourself safe and well mate filthy thumbs up 👍👍👍.
Hello Wayne. I think though whole wiring set up needs re doing. It really needs a split relay charger etc. 😒
Thanks again for stopping by. ✋️
The size of the hook on that fishing gear on your prop! Are there sharks in the Lancaster Canal then? Get them swimming up the Savic Brook into the canal? lol. Sorry to hear about Leon's troubles. Looks like the starter has a sticky solenoid maybe. All that wiring needs to be removed and redone I think, with decent gauge wire to handle the current. Get the starter circuit sorted first and then get a split-charge relay to charge the house batteries when the engine is running, like on your van. Lose all that faffing about with switching this and that switch.
That's exactly what I thought. That marina should know this..It's basic stuff now..Cheers Mark.
That hook was ridiculous. 😂 🤣
Yeah I'm first 😊
Yay!
🏅
Think you’ve got a bird there mate. You’ve pulled on the Lanky
😂 🤣 😆
If you get a sting, heat a spoon in hot water and press it on the bite. The heat breaks the protein in the bite down.
I do that to stop the itching after.
Its a Winter Salt Store for the Highways
Ahhh. I wonder why they chose that shape? 🤔
@@NarrowboatWill Its supposed have less condensation ?
@@uk1922 interesting.
Just paused the vlog while I put on my first comment. Who ever wired that wants ragging with a tat mans trumpet. Probably more comments to follow.
😂 🤣 😆 I know. It was never right from the get go..
I believe those domes are for the road salt storage
I believe you're right. Hope we don't need it..
Will where is Leon’s boat on the Thames ? I might be able to offer some advice on his electrics 👍👍
He's sorted it now. This was in July. Thank you so much for the offer.
Does Leon's boat have a Lucas electrical system? Here in the states, Lucas is known as "The Prince Of Darkness". 😄
I'm not sure what it is but it's bodged for sure.
By the end of xmass i wil be ure 5th subriber on ure channel. Sorry Just jokin Will 😂😅 kidding.
😂 🤣
Lol at the rainbow top comment. All those Trans boaters will be hunting you down 😂
😂 🤣 😆
I will a very good vlag again all for now 😊
Thanks Suzanne. Have a good week..
Did the altenator work?
It was working when I took it off. It's still off because it's my spare one.
Got you posh jacket on stop being down on yourself ,
That jacket saved my life.. 😂 🤣
Do I need to buy a new hat?
I think so. 🤔
