Stranded in a Storm | Boat life takes a wild turn |

- I cruise my Narrowboat back across the Manchester Ship Canal onto the River Weaver and hunker down to sit out the huge storm which is on it's way - Storm Kathleen.
I create a video diary each day as the storm gets worse with wind gusts of 50 MPH, breaking waves, followed by the River Weaver being issued with Flood warnings as the flow gets a bit scary. The Storm and strong winds put a halt to moving the boat as it is not safe to cruise being single-handed (a solo boater).
It can be quite frightening in situations like this.....but not for me as I absolutely buzzed and kept a video diary of the whole experience as I go mad from too much of my own company 🤣🤣🤣 - I hope you enjoy!

Thank you so much for watching. If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Rum Wench and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy and the perfect First Mate. I also work full time off grid from my tiny home and trade at canal festivals as The Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Pirate Boat.

For my 66th birthday this year, I am leaving Brighton, going up the east coast of England, all around Scotland, down through the Lakes, down the Welsh Border, through Devon and home, sleeping in the back of my little car with my beloved dog. i'm setting sail on rubber tyres 🥰
Wow, that sounds fantastic! Have a fabulous journey .
Oh wow, that’s a proper adventure ❤️🏴☠️
Just go..... enjoy.....and have fun
Great inspiration 👍😊
Wish you well in your journey of a lifetime x
Heidi, I love that you never lose your humor even when the weather is awful! It makes me laugh. Inspiring.
Aww thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️
Bonny is so very bonnie and she's really taken to life on the boat, you're both so lucky to have found each other. Thankyou for sharing your life with us, you always put a smile on my face. 😊❤
Aww thanks ☺️
Absolutely!!!
The only thing on my bucket list is to buy a bucket. 😇
😂😂 don’t go kicking it, whatever you do!
Fab video. Some funny bits and you’re always happy regardless of what’s thrown your way. Brilliant 😊 think the odd tune now and again on the accordian would be a great addition 🎶🎹 stay safe and keep vlogging 🏴☠️
You are a trooper……the real thing and worth your weight in gold. Good on yer!!!
Aww thanks, I’ve broken the strap on it so need to get that fixed, it’s bleeding heavy 😂😂
Cold weather, pyjamas, Netflix and a rum sounds like heaven to me. How cozy is that 🥂
The Narrowboat Pirate, You're the best! I subscribed because I love your content!
Wow, thanks! Very kind 😃🏴☠️❤️
Bonny is becoming a proper little canal boat dog 😊 great video, you are an inspiration, thanks for showing us your journey, despite the rain. Cheers!
Thanks so much! 😊
Oh Heidi I laughed heartily at your " as you can see its a beautiful day"🤣......regardless of everything you soldiered on to entertain us all......just loved the shots of the boats powering up the MSC 😍....Bonny's expressions make me chuckle ......thank you as always for sharing with us all......Take great care out there ,happy adventuring......Bucket list......just to get out on the waterways for a good long exploration.😁
😂😂😂 thank you 🏴☠️
Thanks Heidi!! Thanks for having us, damm that must a been COLD!! Hope you and Bonnie are warm again! Keep well! 🙂
Hi Heidi, your strength of character shines through once again… there’s not many boaters I know who would attempt the M Ship canal let alone strong flowing rivers. My bucket list is “ I have a large kidney stone ‘staghorn’ in my right side, I’ve been waiting for over 6 months for treatment, it causes excruciating pain along with bleeding, my bucket list is to be pain free at locks “ it really hurts winding paddles”… great video, be safe!
Hi Heidi - bucket list. I want to go to Finland and see the northern lights. Im saving for a motorhome and a narrowboat! I need experience so am happy to volunteer as crew for you lol. I want to go to Ireland. If money was plentiful, Id like to get my pilots license. Hoping to do a history degree soon. Xx
My bucket list wish is for you to get that operation very quickly as I know the pain. I very much wish you well. 💕
@@paulinehiggins8239 wow.. that is so kind… please don’t waste your wish on me, I’ve lived with kidney stones on and off for 40 years, I’ve learnt to deal with the pain, it’s jus the bleeding that can get scary 👍🏻
Awww you guys are wonderful ❤️, that’s lovely Pauline …. And I also hope you are pain free soon dingnextstop …. And Jan the motorhome and Narrowboat are a great combo 😃🏴☠️❤️
@@dingnextstop It’s not wasted mate especially if it comes true. I know that pain. XXXX
Heidi you never give in,you are an inspiration and a breath of fresh air my lass! Always brilliant narration and camera work... Loved it.💕✅👍
Wow, thank you! Such a lovely comment 🏴☠️❤️😃
It is great that you appreciate what is around you all created by God enjoy and be safe.
There's a heavy flow joke you missed there 😁. Bonny has definitely improved, she used to bark her head off at the bigger dogs as well. Not kicking the bucket is the only thing on my list at the moment 😂. Thanks Heidi
😂😂 she is improving all the time
I recently checked off a small bucket list item Heidi. I've lived 72 years 250 miles from what is considered by many to be the finest zoo in America, never been there. Spent a delightful 3 days exploring everything, stayed overnight in the "big city", had a ball.
Oh wow, that sounds wonderful 🏴☠️😃❤️
Accordions are so magical! Thanks for playing for us. I’m so glad you have Bonnie. I spend a lot of time on my own and would be lost without my little dog Dotty, my horses, parrots and chickens…They keep us going to be sure.
Heidi you are a trooper, the real thing and worth your weight in gold. Good on yer!!!
Thank you so much!
Howdy Heidi!! What is you say, "wetter than a mermaids foof?" To err is human, to arr is pirate!! Big bear hugs from Kenny in Ohio USA!!!!!!!!!!!!
😂😂 yeah!
Hi Heidi, I’m so sorry that weather has stopped play again, but you are shining all the way through the winds and rain of good ole Blighty! It was lovely to hear you play the accordion, we would love it if you played on your vlog more often, you are so gifted. My bucket list is enormous, so here are a few things from it: Spend a month or two in New Zealand and then Australia, swim in the sea with dolfins and whales, stand on the top of Mount Snowdon in Wales, spend a month or two in North and South Ireland drinking all the draught Guinness, and have a narrowboat holiday in Wales! There that is the some of the big ones on my bucket list. Have fun on the Weaver Heidi, lots of love to you and Bonnie. ❤x x❤
Wow wow wow 😃
Please play the accordion again 4 us
Just a quick Hello from wet and cold Northern New Jersey, USA. It seems that the weather is the where ever you go. Be well and stay safe. 😊
😂😂😂
Jersey girl here, transplanted to Phoenix AZ !
Cruising solo with a dog, lots of care needed there and you sure do that. Have you ever put Bonnie in the water with her life jack on so she knows how that will feel? Hope you have, or you will. 🙂 Ahhhh, the river Weaver, so peaceful even in the rain. And yet, yes the wind and the lapping of the waves ... most people don't know how much noise the water makes against your hull. It truly can be very noisy! Well, at least you are safe.
I didn't know you played the squeeze box! 🙂 How cool is that? One of my very favorite bestest of friends, years ago, taught accordion, and many of her students went on to play professionally, or become professional organists. l love the accordion. And right then in your video, you turn wacko and funny. LOL!
After a storm, and with that much flow/current on the river, there would likely be lots of crap in the water that might impede your progress, or cause problems with the boat, the water intake for the engine, problems with the prop and the weed hatch, etc. Good for you for staying put another day or so until things really do calm down and clear up ... down and up. 🙂
Hmm, bucket list ... guess I better make a bucket list. At 76 years of age, I'm perfectly healthy, and enjoying my pickup truck and 21-foot travel trailer, after years and years of boating earlier in life. But ... hmmm, what else might I want to do? Hmmmm.
Here's to that beautiful, grand Lister!
Aww thank you and I love that you are still having lots of wonderful adventures 🏴☠️😃❤️
On my bucket list..... win the friggin lottery 😂❤🎉🏴☠️
😂😂 mine too haha
That's not a bucket list item that's a fantasy 😂, good luck anyway 🤞
Bucket List #1 New Zealand (Middle Earth). #2 Hire a narrowboat and cruise the canals! Love the accordion playing, silly hat and all 😆! Don't blame you for staying put when it's scary windy or floody. Stay safe and warm and hope to see you in new environs soon. 😊
Thanks Debba and wow New Zealand - good luck ❤️
Hi hide another stunning video from you.
The weather has been atrocious over the past few months.. unfortunately this is becoming the norm these days.
I'm so glad to see that you are safe and well..
I see that your little dog bonny is enjoying her time on the canals.
All I can say is that the weather will improve in the coming months.. hopefully.
I can remember 1963 when the snow covered my boat I had to dig myself out of it. The canal was frozen solid..
It lasted for weeks .. people were becoming desperate for water and fuel..
When it finally started to thaw it was replaced with week upon week of heavy rain.
The river weaver is always a dangerous place for narrow boats especially when you have a rising tide going against a flooding river current..
It can turn you around in the blink of an eye.if you are not don't have your wits about you.
Anyway hide keep your self safe and well.
Hiya Heidi and fellow accordionist; was chuffed to see you play your lovely red accordion. Would like a jam session some time. Thanks for another super vlog with you and Bonnie. arrr! 🏴☠️ from @pianomanjustie (CZcams)
I’m crap on it 😂😂
@@TheNarrowboatPirate My partner and I loved it :) 👍🎹🎵
Good thing Bonny is around, at least you went out walking. Wind can be terrifying, lol you'll have to get the knitting out ha ha. Take care =-)
Knitting 😂😂
Love you " Mental ramblings " Heidi . . . . Your words not mine. Something on my bucket list is to maybe get a tattoo done. Although I'm not sure if my daughter's will go much on their widowed dad having a tattoo. Have you ever travelled the Kennet & Avon ? Take care ~ Have fun Phil xx
Ahoy! Very brave and I hope it’s not too painful 😂 no I haven’t done the K&A, the furthest south I’ve been is the North Oxford … maybe one day 😃🏴☠️
Ahoy back Heidi ~ I normally do a couple of weeks a year on the K & A myself . Picking the narrowboat up near Devizes - so if you every fancy a crack at the Caen Hill flight ( both ways of course . . . . . up and down ) " Don't be rude " then give me a call. And don't fret I'm not a rum drinker so your stash will be safe aboard. Take care Heidi~ Hope the weather picks up for you and have a cracking weekend with Bonnie ☠️
Ps Your organ playing blooming marvellous . . . . Be wary of the cabin fever gal lol 😆 😂 xx
Thanks for going back onto the River Weaver. It was our favourite waterway when we lived on nb Epiphany. Thanks for the funnies too❤
I love it here 🏴☠️😃❤️
🤣🤣😂 Your "just going mad" is *g r e a t* ! 💘 hahahahahah *thx*
😂😂
This was such a great adventure that I had eight beers delivered just to watch this weeks video.
😂😂 cheers ❤️
that weather looks horrible! I am glad that you were hunkered down for the worst of it. Wishing you safe travels. Cheers 🍻 😃
Cheers 😃🏴☠️
Great video flower can't believe you've had bonny a year already take care xx😊
Not yet but almost 😂
Well done Heidi you take care of your self look forward to all your blogs,,, I used to have a saying, It's colder than a penguins chuf, watching your blog reminded me of it 👍😂
😂😂 I may have to steal that one 😂😂
Love watching your videos! Buying a narrowboat and living on the cut is my No1 bucket list thing!! Working towards it and just needs the child to finish education etc and🤞🤞🤞 also some countries I really want to visit like India and Japan. One day hopefully
Wow amazing 😃🏴☠️
Well after all that time stuck there I’d have cabin fever so badly I’d be able to play the squeeze box too. Darling little Bonny was just holding back with those big dogs protecting you, she was making sure those big scary dogs didn’t sneak up and hurt you. OMG she is so beautiful. Hope you can get going in the next few day, just whatever be careful. Take care and see you both soon. 💕
She is so wonderful 😃🏴☠️❤️ I’m back on the move again now, thankfully 🏴☠️
@@TheNarrowboatPirate I envy you Heidi.
Living on a narrowboat is on my bucket list and I love history so I want to start visiting more castles and other places around the UK instead of flying abroad like I use to.
Learning what life was like before my time is fascinating, specially when it comes to using ideas/systems that we still use today even for different reasons. I enjoy your videos and the traditional style narrowboat, I do wonder if you ever thought about attempting to "sound proof" the engine room to reduce the noise when you need to run it and youre inside or visitors are inside chilling as you're navigating around.
I can’t as it’s an aircooled engine and needs the engine room to circulate…. It’s just part of having a traditional tug boat 😃🏴☠️
@@TheNarrowboatPirate That is useful to know also makes a lot of sense, I do love seeing engine rooms. No idea why apart from its cool to see an engine that is not in a super cramped area to work on.
It’s nice to have you and Bonny back on the boat. Have a great weekend. Cheers!
I'm looking forward to this trip. My trip over the link was a bit scary when the other narrowboat broke down, and I had to tow him against the outgoing tide Mrs. I did crap myself. It's so easy for a nice cruise to turn into a nightmare. That weaver is a lovely river. The weather has been total shit until now. See you soon Mrs. ❤
Oooh I’ll watch it later 😃🏴☠️❤️ I’m hoping to do it later this year 😃😃
Bucket list... I'm doing it. Getting my boat rebuilt to go cruising
Fabulous 😃🏴☠️
Another fab video, love all your adventures, thinking of my bucket list, the biggest item on it is I want to sail across the Atlantic on the Queen Mary 2, the last ocean going liner in the world in service, it takes about a week I would fly one way and sail back, or if I am really lucky sail out and back! Chin chin with a Kraken x
Oh wow, that sounds epic 😃🏴☠️❤️
Hello Heidi, another great video. My bucket list has only one thing: circum navigation singlehanded on my 28foot sailboat. Next autum it will start.
Oh wow, that sounds amazing 😃🏴☠️❤️🏴☠️
Hi To You And Bonny Clad You Got Back On The Weaver Ok And C Glad The Flood Went Down And Not Up Well Till Next Time Take care And Be safe
Brill ! I loved that, " just trapped my nipple" hilarious 😂 You inspire me to get moving n do more cruising x
😂😂 hopefully see you in the cut soon xx
It's still cold up here in Aberdeenshire. North winds and hail today.
Your trip certainly had some beautiful countryside and having staff on the locks made it a lot easier for you to get through, but it was still a tough day.
You certainly deserved your hot shower and bit of rum.
Cheers 😃🏴☠️
Aww bless you, you really did get cabin fever, it worrying enough on the canals in a storm, with the boat banging against the mooring, but on the rivers you have to worry about level too and making sure the ropes are loose enough to allow the boat to raise, totally understand why you didn't want to leave her. Hopefully things have settled down now and you are on the move again. take care.
Thank you… I was back on the move in no time, thankfully 😃❤️🏴☠️
loved the music through the lock I expected JONNY DEPP TO POP UP LOVED THE VIDEO WE WERE STUCK IN OUR MARINA ON THE N OXFORD DURING THE STORM
Great video Hiedi, and an important one as it shows that it's not always plain sailing on the boat. And im sure its not watching your videos its bloody hard work some days ,but mother nature is boss, stay safe Nick 🏴x
Cheers Nick 😃🏴☠️
Looks a bit rough over there! Nice to see your bellows out in this video! Always enjoy your great vlogs, Heidi. Stay safe. Fred, Ralph the lurcher and Kevin the cat in Spain.
Thank you! You too!
A brave girl indeed.
Keep dancing in the rain H 👍.
Thanks for sharing a very exciting episode I love your companion Bonnie, can't explain but you saved my day .Be safe ❤️
Aww thank you, I hope you enjoy the rest of it 😃🏴☠️❤️
Bonny looks interested in EVERYTHING as if the weather's no problem! So cute.
She is always fascinated, she loves watching the world go by 😃🏴☠️
Looking forward to this week's video.
Thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️
Great to see you plain sailing no matter the weather ❤
I can sympathise with you Heidi, we were in our motorhome on the north Cornwall coast during that storm and we had 60 mph winds for 24 hours 😲. I didn't end go to bed that night, it felt a little better to sit up with the lights on rather than lie down in the dark. I finally went to bed at 7.00am and slept until 11.30am. We then had 40+mph winds for 2 days, and again the following week.
Oh jeeze, yeah it was horrible haha .. I never thought much of the weather when I lived in a house but now I’m obsessed 😂😂 boats and vans feel it all
I came for Heidi's adventure and the little fart noises in between scenes. lol
😂😂😂
Lol, loved this one, Heidi! Cabin fever, going mad? You? Don’t be rude! Great to see Bonny has now settled into the boating life, she is so relaxed, even in a storm! Have a great week!❤🐕🏳️🌈📯🥃☕️💎
Thank you 😃🏴☠️🌈
Welcome to the narrowboat drag races! So happy that Bonnie is doing better around other dogs.
Well done lady, chin up and stay safe, x
"Our good Captain is stranded on the Weaver.
Send rum supplies quick, she has cabin fever!"
Fab vlog Heidi, interesting to see the 'other side' of boat life when it's not all plain sailing.
And your innuendos are still as cheeky as ever (make me chuckle every time 😂😂) FM Bonny looks like she's taking it all in her stride, protecting her Cap'n against the 'Big Dogs' which may try to board the Rum Wench!
Keep ticking things off your bucket list and please keep entertaining us with your mental ramblings, you're hilarious! Stay safe and ramble on always 🏴☠️🌈 xx
😂😂 save them ditties as I may start up the back cabin again 😂
@@TheNarrowboatPirate 😂 please do, I have thousands more and I've missed your back cabin 😉🤣
Take care. You look like you are so cold! Brrr! Bonnie is really doing great! ❤
We love your mental rambling Heidi Haha cabin fever!
Fantastic as always you are such a free spirit! you take care out there! Living the dream cheers James and Shelly the Cornish crew!
Cheers 😃🏴☠️
Does Bonny mind the rocking of the boat in all that wind? Our little Corgi does not mind snow or wind but gets very anxious when we have thunder and lightning.
She doesn’t mind at all 😂😂 she hates it raining and windy on a walk and always pulls back to the boat but inside she is happy as Larry 😂
Nice bit of accordion. I play the hurdy-gurdy. Love the Weaver.
storm weather makes life worth living. lol. ah, it's so nice to be back on the water. I can feel the mist and wind through the screen. lol, lol, lol. lol, I even turn the heat up so I could miss the cold aspect of our travels today. 🤣😂🤣😁
said like a true captain. "go a little mad": funny even the duck is looking at the river like, yeah, not today.
Haha, thank you 🏴☠️😃
Great video showing the downside of boating. The only thing missing was a accordian section was a cameo on singing in the rain.
😂🎵
Cheers 🥂.
Thanks so much Mark 😃🏴☠️❤️
@@TheNarrowboatPirate You're very welcome.
Nice one Heidi . Jenny and I have followed you on and off for a few years. Thanks for the laughs.
I rarely comment. We have boat cruised the Thames in the past. Australia 🇦🇺
Wonderful 😃🏴☠️
My bucket list would include a cruise with you and bonnie
What shall we do with the drunken Heidi; what shall we do with the drunken Heidi; what shall we do with the drunken Heidi, early in the morning?
Give her a few more so she’s not a bore…snort
On my bucket list is to actually come over to the uk, and get on the cut with my own boat… but I think that might never happen sadly. Well at least I can view others journey’s through CZcams.
Love watching narrowboating content especially with you Heidi. You make even the most atrocious weather seem fun and entertaining.
May you have fair weather and sunny days for future voyages.
Ben from Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks Ben 😃🏴☠️❤️
Hey Heidi! Great week, albeit a bit rainy. Bucket list!
Omg I can’t say on the net. 😮. Don’t be rude! 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Bonny is adorable and has taken to life on a boat really well, one thing on my bucket list left to do travel behind a steam train
That sounds great 😃🏴☠️
That storm looked awful. So much rain all winter and spring, roll on summer and let’s hope it’s a good one.X
Thank you for sharing your adventure! Love that, Bonny! Cheers!
Heidi. I missed your last of your videos. I'll have to get caught up.
I went to my friends funeral last week. He got a good send off.
It's so good to see you braving the weather.
I'd have been singing.
Rum rum wonderful rum.
There's nothing quite like it to warm up my tum.
When it's raining and hailing
I ain't complaining.
So long as I'm topped up with boatloads of rum. 😂
That’s fab, save it incase I bring back the back cabin poems 😂😂
Great video
One thing thats on my bucket list is to meet you
Loved this vid Heidi, great to see a weather forced change to the routine! I will soon be on the canals and rivers so using your videos as instruction…. !!!!!!!
Bucket list: winning lottery ticket or two!
Good luck ❤️
. Hi from the usa I love watching you thank you I love you bug hugs
Bucket list item would have to be going to the UK, spending some time on a narrowboat, having a good explore and definitely doing a bit of mud larking if possible.
Thanks for the video, that river flow was really fast. I’m glad that you were near family during this time.
Take care and I’ll see you next time. Hugs to you and Bonny and my best to your Mum and Dad. xöx
🙂🐿🌈❤️
P.s I’m using “the force” to hopefully bring on that Springtime weather for you.
Please use a bit more force 😂😂 ive for fire lit 😂 thanks again for your lovely comment Eve 😂🌈🏴☠️
@@TheNarrowboatPirate
You’re very welcome 😉
HURRY UP SPRING 🌼 you’re running VERY late Eeeeeeeeeeeek
i Enjoyed your according playing. Do it again
I've always wanted to drive a combine harvester. Next month I will be doing just that. I've found a farm that advertises experiences. Wooohoooo. Excited. Great video as usual, I don't mind your ramblings. ilona
Haha that’s brilliant 😃🏴☠️❤️
I got quite emotional watching you go for it on the ship canal with the waves billowing from the front. I know you were wet and cold but I thoroughly enjoyed it 🦆💕
Haha, thank you 😃🏴☠️❤️
If I remember correctly from the foxes, The DA boat that you mentioned has steam powdered power steering. So be sure to check that out when you get close enough to her. 😃😃
Oh really, I can’t wait to see it if I’m still around 😃🏴☠️
Sounds completely miserable, being that cold. We experience that when skiing here in Colorado storms and all…just no risk of capsizing/sinking! Nothing like warm jammies and a hot drink. My bucket list would be to see the Kelpies by NB. Great vlog.
What weather. You've battled through and achieved sooo much.
Very brave to do the ship canal in that awful weather.
Bonnie is so cute. Such a good little girl and is so settled with you. A very lucky little girl.
Take care xx
Thank you, you too 😃❤️🏴☠️
You've done amazingly well again. 6 days resting up sounded like a good plan, even if not planned😅. Bucket list. Get a dutch barge and do French canals😊
That sounds absolutely wonderful 😃❤️🏴☠️
Love it. Real life, shite weather, yet stressful fun. Your manner is so relaxed. Love your work. Keep safe. 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
Thank you 😃🏴☠️
I remember those days so well!
😂😂
Another great video, thank you. You are very patient but nice to see Bonnie not to stressed about it all. What a bugger Cathleen was!! Hope your trapped nibble recovers 🤣🤣 look forward to your next vlog.
Top of my bucket list is to drive from Chester to Kefalonia (using the odd boat of course) 🥃
That trip sounds wonderful, kefelonia is very beautiful and at least it will be warm 😂😂
Bucket list? We've just retired and are going to tick one off our list next week- we've booked to go to a farm in the New Forest, help fire up a traction engine, then drive it (complete with trailer) to a pub for lunch, then back and help put her to bed for the night 😀
We've been on the Falkirk Wheel and visited the Kelpies- Anderton Boat lift of course onto the Weaver (and the Pontcysyllte aqueduct many times and the Harecastle Tunnel 50 plus years ago and since ), but envy your ship canal- maybe when we have a bit more time! Would love to go across the Wash and up the Thames as well.. need a boat we fully own first (bucket list again)
Thanks for another great video
Wow, wonderful ❤️🏴☠️
My husband write you a diddy!
Heidi Dear Heidi has had to much Rum, Now it has landed her on her Bum. Dear little Bonny does not know what to do, so she sits beside her until she comes too! I am not a good poet, for this I do know but I love watching Heidi’s You Tube Show!
From Bob and Michelle Ontario Canada 😊❤
Aww wonderful, please save it, incase I start doing the back cabin scenes again 😃❤️🏴☠️
@@TheNarrowboatPirate thanks for the response! We hope to come to England one day, as hubby’s granddad Joe Hewer and my granddad Bill Cross came from England in 1912..
keep up the great videos 😁😁
Nice one Heidi. Really enjoyed such a lovely. Lovely lady, PS.You must have been very young when you started on the canals babe 😘 love you 😍 xxx
Great video Heidi it did look very cold and windy, hope you have Warmed up. You did make me laugh when you were playing to The accordion.😅 Have a lovely weekend.Let's hope it's going to warm up a bit 😊
Let’s hope 😃
I enjoy losing myself in this channel. Heidi, you are a gem. It should be recommended to watch with a beverage (wink). Pubs look great too, wish I was near one.
Thank you 🏴☠️😃❤️
Heidi you are a good laugh, i love your vids. Jim and Vi from Banbury send there best wishes, Peter, Abingdon.
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you Heidi and Bonny. I hope the weather improves soon. I don’t have a bucket list. Cheers!
Cheers
Scary but brilliant! Heidi the hardy adventurer. Excellent vlog …..as usual.
Thank you!!
Ok, when you went mad. Made me laugh.
😂😂
On my bucket list this year - is a short break in York. I've not been there for about 20 years or more. Soon as I can find a house-sitter for a long weekend... I'm there !
Wonderful, I love York and the Viking museum 😃 have a wonderful time
Love the accordion. Hope we see more xx
Cool video loved your drunken sailor ditty hope the weather is better for you today Steve
Thanks 👍
Your adventures with Bonnie are inspiring my partner and myself to try our hand at narrow boating with our Frenchie, Buster. We just need to offload a few kids first.
Because of these biological land anchors, we've decided to book a few river boat piloting courses and then to book a few boating holidays on a rental boat to get the taste and test the waters.
Once the kids have flown the nest, we're upping sticks and settling on the canals.
We hope to bump into you and Bonnie in a couple of years!
Biological land anchors 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@TheNarrowboatPirate you can have that one, I have many more names for them, I can tell thee!
