      When the worlds leading canoeists have not seen the like done before, then you know you're on to something. The funniest thing for me is docking right next to the 303. He clearly doesn't have to but the hum of the traffic leads to a good nights sleep, by all accounts. Always entertaining vids Billy, keep it up.

    👍 He's having fish fingers for dinner, cool he brought fish fingers. No, wait, he brought fish fillets to fry, hang on, is that flour? What's he beating the eggs for? Oh, so the breadcrumbs will stick to them... So he's making his own fish fingers, nice! Hang on, isn't he sat in a canoe in the middle of the river, yes he is! 😂 Well atleast he doesn't have to try and keep a pan of hot oil steady on the river..... 😳 Love it 😀👍

      The vast majority of those people (dog walkers, Horse riders etc) are enjoying what their doing, and probably don`t care what you are doing "to enjoy yourself". Your enjoyment does not infringe upon their enjoyment, so each to his/her own. It`s those who are unable to enjoy themselves, that seek to prevent others from enjoying themselves, that are the problem. The Inland Waterways Authority` are responsible for all rivers and canals, NOT the local council, or the police. Should someone complain you will be long gone by the time a water baliff turns up to inspect your watercraft permit. If one does actually turn up, he/she is not likely to wade into the water to ask for it.

    I will say, this is pretty original.
    GOOD IDEA.
    The thought of camping in a canoe actually sounds very relaxing.. in the right environment.
    ..That fish looked great as well.
