- In this week's vlog, as I leave the River Nene, I celebrate the villages of Elton and Wadenhoe, buy a narrowboat essential and reflect for a while. Come and join me whilst I pause in my narrowboat life. Sit back, relax and enjoy! Take care x
Hello Vanessa - greetings from Poland
I've reached vlog No. 70 - Northampton Arm. I loved the villages of Elton and Wadenhoe. Seeing Zephyr up on that roof, meeting a cat coming the other way was brilliant!
Having passed under Lilford Bridge, your close up camera work was fabulous, especially the shots of the fungii and the squirrel. The closing shot of your manoeuvre into the lock was superb.
Thanks for this lovely video. I really enjoyed it.
🏆🏆 vlog 70! Congratulations 🥳🍾 It's downhill from now on🤣 Thank you for your lovely comment and for your kindness about the camera work. Take care🦋🌻
Your observation of nature never ceases to amaze me.That lichen is phenomenal. I absolutely love your new kettle and so unusual and different from the norm.
The kettle is certainly unusual, but then having your own coffee machine is unusual too😆 I absolutely love the pixie cup lichen and I spent ages staring at it. Lichen is part fungi, part algae which also amazes me! Have a super weekend 🌻🦋
I think alot of the red berries along the towpaths are edible in some form. Hope you picked loads of them for later and made something delicious. Great vlogs Mrs mindful. I'm from Bournemouth so the south coast is dear to me. Take care.
Bournemouth is a beautiful place and I can see why it’s so special to you. Watch those red berries though as some of them are deadly! Thank you for your lovely comment 🌻🦋 Have a super weekend 👍
Another fantastic vlog and thanks again. I love your kettle it’s a beauty and a work of art. I grew up on a farm and it’s most unusual for a sheep to come that close to a dog. Thanks again for sharing your beautiful and relaxing vlog.
Hi Jack, thank you for your lovely comment. I thought it was very strange when the sheep came so close to Zephyr; my dog was actually quite frightened by it! 🐑 Have a great week!🦋🌻
Beautiful as always. Thanks so much.
You are very welcome! Thank you so much for your kind words.😊
As always I enjoy your vlogs… often I revisit them again over the week
That is so lovely to hear Nanci! Thank you 😊 Have a super weekend 🌻🦋
Vanessa, thank you, love the vlog, just perfect to think about making tea with such an unusual kettle. Thank you and take care.
Thank you, Christine ☺️ The kettle makes some very strange noises, but it boils the water beautifully 😂🫖☕️ Have a super weekend 🌻🦋
Another mindful and totally relaxing vlog Vanessa. Am looking forward to seeing where Winter takes you as you leave my little corner of the world behind for adventures anew. Love that kettle! Take care x
Thank you once again, Jill for your lovely comments. Your corner of the world has been very difficult to leave and I will be back very soon! Take care🦋🌻
@@themindfulnarrowboat Give me advance notice because I would love you meet you and Zephyr x
What pretty villages! Your photography is stunning! I like your wellness kettle too. We have tea every day. I use a bone china cup and saucer. To me, tea tastes so much better in a bone china cup! Thanks, Vanessa!😊
I know what you mean about tea in a bone china cup. Thank you so much for watching. Have a super weekend. Take care 🌻🦋
The kettle looks as though it was specially designed for Alice Grace. Coords with her colour scheme and wood work perfectly. Such thought has gone into the design. Looks pricey but perfect. Enjoying watching these vlogs as we get ready for autumn again .
Unfortunately, the kettle could not cope with the amount of tea that I drink and so now, I have a new kettle that I bought in a charity shop which is really up to the job! 😂 Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Take care 🦋🌻
I've just seen that NarrowboatWill has commented as well. It seems that the other vloggers enjoy your work! Somehow this channel seems to have gone under the radar. (perhaps driving over a weir, or a head on crash, on the next thumbnail, will do the trick haha) I reckon you should be on 10 times the amount of subscribers! I've said it before, this channel is "DELIGHTFUL"
You're absolutely right! This is such a special vlog that, for me, captures the beauty and realities of being on the water. I am in awe of Vanessa's talent and craft, which she presents with such a self-effacing light-touch. It does deserve - and am sure will get - the wider recognition it deserves.
It certainly needs much wider recognition.It is so different from all the other vlogs. Having met Vanessa she deserves far more subscribers,she is such a lovely genuine lady.
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. It is so lovely to hear. RUclips is a strange place but it’s great to connect with other vloggers and super subscribers. Fortunately, I’m not ambitious, good job really!🤣 Have a super weekend🌻🦋👍
Thank you so much for your support, Richard 🌻🦋👍 It means a lot 🙏
Thank you so much for your support Chris 🌻🦋 It means a lot🙏 Did you get the postcard I left you?
Lovely you have evolved but always special to nature thanks for sharing take care 👌👍🙏
That is so kind of you, Matt. 😊 Take care 🌻🦋
I love your poems and drawings but most of all your personality. (from an Old pensioner)
What a kind thing to say! But there is no such thing as "old" The Last Pilot, only "mature" and like cheese and wine, the more mature, the better it is! Take care and thank you for your comment.🦋🌻🍷
Good evening Vanessa, I hope your holiday week went well, very beautiful villages and very beautiful pictures ,passez une bonne semaine en bonne santé
J’ai passé un bonnes vacances merci! Avoir un merveilleux week-end! Prends soin 🦋🌻👍
Thank you for such an interesting … vlog
You are so welcome, Nanci! Thank you for watching and for your lovely comment. Have a great weekend🦋🌻
I know this stretch so well, but only from the road - the A-somethingteen-and-annonymous. A grey asphalt ribbon that can't decide if it's a dual-carriageway or not. It's on the way to Dad's (and Mum's when she was alive) and so is now lacquered with so many memories. I love that landscape of church spires and towers. Your eye can hop from spire to spire!
It is so beautiful and to have such a link with a place like that must be very special. I was brought up in, Ilford, Essex which is a very different landscape, but beautiful in its own way! 😃Have a super weekend 🌻🦋
Lovely ☺️
Thank you so much🤗 Have a wonderful week, take care🦋🌻
That kettle was awesome.
I have grown rather fond of my kettle and its rather peculiar vocal range which starts way before boiling point and continues after the gas is turned off!🫖🎶🎶🎶 Thank you for your comment and have a sunny weekend!🦋🌻🌞
THANK YOU
You are so welcome. Thank you so much for watching, Vanessa. Take care🦋🌻
How amusing sheep and Zeph.
It was a very strange experience for Zephyr to have a sheep so close to her!🐑🐾
Oh I hope you are compiling a book of your poetry and drawings and photos. I'll buy several!
That is very kind of you, Ann. I sell my books in my Etsy shop. Thank you so much for watching. Take care 🦋🌻
What a enjoyable vlog again Vanessa 😀 so many lovely quaint villages near the river Nene with there thatched roof and caricature straw aminals on them. It's amazing how u catch so much wild life to film for each vlog, it was nice to see India with Zephyr on the beach. Have a lovely weekend and week to come 🦙🐦🦤🦋
Thank you, Simon 😊 The villages are so stunning to walk around and so well cared for too. I love the alpaca emoji on your comment! I will try and make some sloe cordial this week. Have you made any yet? Thank you for your lovely comment and have a super weekend 🌻🦋🦙👍
Those berrys (?) look a lot like ones we have in Portugal that people call "mata lobo" wich means "Kills a wolf"... 😱 Stay safe, we need these vlogs 🙏😁
So that is the reason I can't howl anymore! 🤣 I shall take your advice though, Miguel. Have a wonderful rest of the week! Take care🦋🌻🐺
@@themindfulnarrowboat 🤣🤣
really enjoy your vlogs, only discovered your channel today but have subscribed so you have me forever.
Welcome to the Mindful Narrowboat Family, Robert! I am delighted that you enjoy the vlogs and thank you so much for watching! Take care🦋🌻
Quirky expensive looking kettle. Hope you enjoy using it.
❤
Love it !
Thank you for taking the time to show us all the gorgeous leaf fractals! I will be making sure I appreciate them on my walks now
Thank you so much, India! Apparently, noticing the patterns in leaves and fractals in nature can reduce stress levels by 60%! Have a week of beautiful fractal observation! Take care.🦋🌱🌻
Good idea ! Get away for a change of pace or you will wind up like it was before with a headache! 😅
Exactly! Thank you so much for watching. Take care 🦋🌻
I have this kettle
Ram! 🐏
That's a beautiful kettle. What make is it?
Thank you 😊 It’s a Klausberg KB look it up on Amazon and read Kevin Dacre’s whole review; it is a work of art! Have a super weekend 🌻🫖🦋
Another Gem V, Did I spy with my little eye Mr. Mindful walking Zypher on the towpath from 9:28-9:33, or did this journey go off without a Hitch?
🤣😂🤣 Correct! Love the Hitch joke though! Have a great week!🌻🦋
Love the name witch's butter. What a colour. What is it?
Hi Vanessa, witch's butter is bright yellow and feels like jelly to touch. I think you can use it to help start camp fires. Thank you for your comment. Have a super weekend!🌻🦋🍄
luckily you you’ve got to go on the foot plate of the steam train
It’s a great train! Thank you so much for watching. Take care🌻🦋
Put Locationmin title and Cormorants?
