    Sounds like the canoe lady, and I use that term loosely, obviously thinks she owns the river. As a fellow boater, I thought as long as nobody was coming at you from the opposite direction etc, you could use the centre of the river/canal. And was also surprised at her overtaking you on the right side to, thought this should be on the left. Maybe I'm wrong, but even so there's no need for the water rage! Such a rude and unimportant person

    Shame about the shouty and mis-informed paddlers. As you know, the advice is to pass oncoming traffic on the right. Otherwise, stay in the middle where the water is deepest. Its so easy to go aground on parts of the Oxford. I got well stuck last year. A hire boater helped me out! Loving the vlogs as usual. Best wishes to both.

      Response to angry kayaker- "Well, aren't you just lovely. You have a good day now." That just sends their blood pressure even higher ; ) and ruins their day even more.

    A wok might work better than a frying pan for the first part of the cooking process just because it holds more and you can turn things over without it possibly falling out. I use a wok for a lot of different things it wasn’t meant to cook. Even stew LOL!

    I love the drone shots as they often show signs of ancient human activity, particularly if you know what to look for. Quite easy to overlook if you don't. Old trackways and lanes. Some of the existing field boundaries are still "loyal" to the ancient pattern. I liked those four trees in a small square formation (5:33). They speak of intentional planting and stand out like a sore thumb! Now that was obviously a site of something rather more important than a barn and possibly a later feature. Small Parish Church or chapel? Some lines in the crop seem to indicate old boundary walls that surround these trees. Great to conjecture just what the surface marks might actually be!

    • @FloatingOurBoat
      @FloatingOurBoat  2 года назад

      Quite agree with you and we also look at these lines and marks often. I believe there was something mentioned in our map books about those four trees, but memory fails me now!

With nothing much to do I attempted to make your veg curry and cooked it for 6 hours in our slow cooker . Obviously substituting ingredients we didn’t have . Basics were onion , garlic , sweet potato , carrots, curry powder, tinned chilli tomatoes , chick peas, green beans cauliflower, coconut cream and a little chicken stock powder . Just finished a huge bowl of this deliciousness and enough for another meal for the two of us ! Thanks Fran for showing us the simple but flavoursome dish !

    If the kayaker was such in a hurry to pass you why didn't they just go to shore, pick up the kayak run ahead and get back in the water..... I like you balanced videos, scenery, history, local attractions and great recipes. I was quite interested in your thermal cooker and thanks for posting the link. I am not sure if Mr. D's cookware still has an active website as the your link or other searches did not take me to their site. No worries though, found many other brands of this type of appliance. Great idea for a narrowboat and even my camper van. I have a generator built into my Roadtrek and could run it for 20 to 30 minutes to power my electric pressure cooker, but this a far more environmentally friendly, cost efficient and quiet way to prepare a nice hot meal for the end of the day. As always fair locks.....

    Hi Fran really impressed with the cooker can’t seem to find the same one do you have the make. Were two on a boat like you and cooking on the Moro’s can be dodgy whilst locking. Cheers NB Fiddlesticks ✋

    1st. No way is Rich backing up the boat. Then we get the bow thruster confession. 2nd, I somehow have missed the cockpit cover. Don't remember seeing it before. Loved this video, such variety.

      We had the pram cover added recently. It is a wonderful addition and gives us an extra room even though we don't like the look of them.
