    Love seeing the boats, only thing with the beds taking up the whole area you can ‘t access the bow to outside, much prefer a bed so when laying it it you look out the - don’t have a boat but we have a camper and I love being in bed and being about to look out the windows and watch the world/wildlife/sunrise. Narrow boats appeal to me but my other half is a land lover😆

    I had a good giggle at Anthony breaking into the RV , he was the only one who’d fit. 😂🤣You obviously had a great time at Cricket and with camping friends and I’m sure Dexter was spoiled rotten . There’s been a heatwave all around us this week but we didn’t get it as bad, I guess because we’re just 2 houses from the Atlantic Ocean and get a pretty nice breeze most days. Granddaughter had exams this week and school ends next week so it’s been quiet. I’ve enjoyed being outside a lot , for some reason the blackflies aren’t bad this year, I don’t like them and react badly to their bites. The cats have discovered Junebugs, a rather big chubby beetle that shouldn’t be able to fly but does, is attracted to light so bumps against windows and doors. They’d love to get out at them but I do not want them in the house, they get stuck in your hair😳. Not much else new this week, just reading , crafting and a little gardening. I planted some flowers around the pet graves. 😢. Enjoy your week cruising🥰🙋🏼‍♀️

Hope your grand daughter goes well. We are supposed to be getting a heat wave next week, fingers crossed it isn’t baking on the boat. It is nice to be able to enjoy the outdoors. I react badly to mosquito bites. I don’t blame you for not wanting it here bugs in your house. Sometimes, not doing much is bliss. Have a great week and take care ♥️

    Hi guys Thanks for a brilliant vlog, we loved it. Just the tonic we needed after a difficult 7 days with granddaughter poorly, and trying to get to see a GP almost impossible and shes only 5. Made me think what do you guys do for a Gp as you move around. Anyway thanks again really enjoyed your vlog, dont think we'll ever forget Antony climbing into the RV, couldn't believe our eyes, my husband said youd be great in the olden days going up chimneys 😂. Such a joy to watch you having so much fun, surrounded by wonderful friends. Thank you Paul for working hard doing these vlogs and Antony it means so much that you reply to everyone, the world would be a better place if there were more lovely people like you and all your canal friends. Have a great week.

      Thanks Christine. Sorry to hear about your grand daughter. Hope she got seen in the end as is ok. We are registered at our original GP we had in the house. We use Paul’s Mum and Dad’s address. I can’t believe I managed to get into the van. It was like the old chimney sweep 😂. We had a blast at Crick. We have made so many lovely friends on the canal and the community is second to none. Have a lovely weekend and speedy recovery for your grand daughter ♥️

    On a boat it's not a kitchen, it's a galley. And a bathroom is referred to as a head. And a bedroom is a stateroom.

    • @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked

      We interchange kitchen and galley, but on a narrowboat, I have never heard the other terms to refer to the bathroom and bedroom. Hope you have a good weekend ♥️

      Head and Staterooms are probably more often used on ships rather than boats. On some narrowboats they might even have a bedroom just a fold down over the dinette . Same applies to the bathroom facilities on a narrowboat are often limitted some even only having a portapotti

    Hey guys 👋Julie here from Shropshire. Anthony what do you both film with ? Looked like Paul had a go pro? Im looking for a cheap and cheerful camera to film separate from my iphone as storage might be an issue, any recommendations ? Have a good week 🍷

      Hi Julie. We usually film on a Cannon M50. We used the GoPro at Crick too as it has a wide angle for the boat tours. Have a lovely weekend ♥️

    Another great video guys. It was nice to see all those lovely boats again and seeing you all have such a great time at the show despite the rain. Fortunately, we missed the rain as we were only there on Friday 😎 and even made it into the background of your video (for the second year running) on the second Swan boat. We fell in love with Marshall 😍. Happy to be ‘extras’ in any future video releases too. 😉 Our rates are very reasonable! 😂 Take care. Graham & Sally xx

      Hey guys. Glad you enjoyed. There were some amazing boats this year. Friday and Saturday were the best days. 😂. Can’t believe we caught you on video. We had a blast that weekend. I loved Marshall too. He was so affectionate. Always happy to have you as extras 😂. Have a lovely weekend both of you ♥️

    Hi guys, Looks like you all had a good time at Crick. The footpath from the boat to your van is a bit of a leg puller, especially with the stuff you had on the trolley! Hope all is well and Dexter alright. Enjoy this sunny weekend (so far anyway) x

    • @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked
      @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked 4 дні тому

      We had a blast Bill. I can’t believe we needed all that stuff. Some of it, to be fair, was for Dexter’s stay at Paul’s parents. It is like having a child lol. We are all good thanks. Hope you have fully recovered now. ♥️

    Can’t believe you don’t care for your induction hob. Best thing ever in my book. Would never go back to gas. Induction gives so much more control.

    • @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked
      @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked 4 дні тому

      Paul doesn’t like it, probably because of the power it uses, I enjoy cooking on it. We had induction in the house. Agree, very controllable. ♥️

    What a great show - so many nice boats! Tell me, what is the 'best' option do you thing for toilets on a narrow boat? there seems to be a few options. Nice to see hybrid boats too.

    • @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked
      @NarrowboatLifeUnlocked 4 дні тому

      It was a fab weekend. There were so many fab boats. If power and money was no object, then a Cinderella toilet would be the best option. A compost toilet, in my opinion, is the next best option. Hope you have a good weekend ♥️
