    Well.....If we don't see another vlog from you we know that you have gone to another dimension and the Blisworth Tunnel is indeed haunted. Thank you for the very enjoyable vlog, gave me a good chuckle or three...cheers.

    You may be interested in checking out an 'LED bar' for the top of your cabin on the bow. The illumination is astonishing unlike your candle power beam that was pointing everywhere but where you needed !...they can be linked to a motion sensor and or alarm for nightime security. Not expensive.

    I used to enjoy watching Peter Ustinov, a great raconteur, as well as actor. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Dinosaurs film appears again at Christmas. Glad CRT found the tunnel. Take care, keep safe. Alan x

      Honestly, Alan, it was embarrassing. They asked us to spell it three times and then said there was no Blisworth tunnel on their system. You couldn't make it up. That's why I thought of Peter Ustinov and the dinosaur film. He was great as Poirot too, and I seem to recall he starred in "Death on the Nile." Take care yourself, mate. All the best for Christmas

    • @MyNarrowboatVenture
      @MyNarrowboatVenture 5 лет назад +1

      I’m lost for words - unbelievable but true! I liked Ustinov’s Poirot so much that many years passed before I could even watch David Suchet but he’s done a terrific job, played with caring and compassion. Evil Under The Sun is one of my favourites. Christmas wishes to both of you.

    We had an odd experience on one occasion through the blisworth. Almost at the end when we went over what appeared to be a speed bump. Literally felt the front middle and rear raise as the boat went over something. Shone the torches behind us.......nothing. Weird! You’ll be passing our marina soon 👍.

    • @WeirontheMove
      @WeirontheMove  5 лет назад +1

      Julie thought she heard someone call her name as we went through. She was quite spooked. Which marina are you at. Is it the one near Gayton Junction?

    • @colinracheljustpootling7468

      Weir on the Move I won’t say the name of the marina, but between there and Whilton Marina. Tunnels do play tricks on you

    • @WeirontheMove
      @WeirontheMove  5 лет назад

      You just did, in your last vlog. How else did we get to Blisworth? I don't think tying balloons to the boat and floating it over the tunnel is a viable option.

    I love your guy’s the two of you are extremely funny 😁 Oh my goodness they didn’t know where they left Blisworth Tunnel! I about fell over when you were describing the situation! I did notice that your tunnel light is a bit lacking. I’d suggest getting a brighter light for tunnels, I’m just saying. I thought you were so funny Mark when you said that Julie should be at the front of the boat that’s why you get along and she can be just as annoying from there. Thanks again for the great VLOG..I laughed my butt off! Mark from Colorado USA 🇺🇸

    • @WeirontheMove

      Hi Mark, the tunnel light is pathetic, isn't it. We did have it at the wrong angle though. Thank you for the kind words. Glad you are enjoying the vlogs

    Having had this issue getting through to CRT to book a passage through the tunnel, I assume you will have the same trouble getting through Braunston tunnel if you're going that far.

      Hi Richard, we aren't going that far. We have to be back towards Rickmansworth by Christmas. However, we are considering going back that way in the new year so may still encounter difficulties
