    This is a BONUS video, not a vlog. Panic not, the normal vlogs will follow. If you don't like these uncommentaried, real-time, slow TV videos then just skip this one eh? My other, normal vlogs have all the commentary you could ever want...
    It's the bow camera recording in full of the journey seen in vlog form in vlog 177, from Market Bosworth to Snarestone at the end of the Ashby canal.
    If you see the boat wavering all over the canal, it probably means I had my hands off the tiller while trying to film something. I wasn't on the gin & tonic, honestly...

    Just perfect, no cd. no music, just the sound of nature and the little background of the engine, i envy you David, this is just amazing, so peaceful, great video, as always, thank you so much!

    I've enjoyed watching all your videos. I've gotten tired of T.V. and all the stupid programs. And I love these 2 hour videos. It brings back memories. Keep up the good work.

    @ilox11 Před 5 lety +3

    David, that was just so so wonderful. Such a relaxing journey, not racing through the cut, just cruising the cut, being at one with Nature. You are so lucky to be able to indulge in your great lifestyle. I am so so jealous LOL Thank you very much for sharing this with us.

    The quiet enjoyment of canal scenery and cruising is a great addition to your chanel. Naturally, we viewers appreciate your 'reportorial' voice, the one that set the stage for this part of your life! Thank you for both phases!

    Thanks for another great video. For me this reinforces how beautiful England is. I lived in England (London, mind) for about 4 years when I was younger, and I felt people really under-appreciated the beauty England has to offer.

    I have been ill in bed all day, just listening to the vlogs. Even without the visuals it is immensely calming and therapeutic.

    David, you will never know how much you help me. I replay your videos in my mind while undergoing Radiation. Keeps me out of the unpleasant and into peace and beauty. You have given many a wonderful gift.

    • @CruisingTheCut
      @CruisingTheCut  Před 5 lety +1

      That is good to know (that they help, not that you are undergoing such unpleasant treatment, obviously). I wish you well.

    Love how the birds sing in this film, especially the Black Birds, they are the ones that give me the energy in the spring and summer. Hearing both them and the ducks at the same time is fantastic.

    @duallydriver2 Před 5 lety +3

    I’m going out on a limb, not really, and say this may be your best video yet. As a youngster from Gainsborough, Lincs my dad used to have a boat on the Torksey canal. It wasn’t a narrow boat but we had endless fun on the canals and river Trent to Newark and Nottingham. I used to sit on the bow and soak it all in. I’m 72 now so this video is taking me back to the 1950-60s when I was a kiddo. I’m going to wear this video out, many many thanks!! Your finest work yet!!!

    Because of YOU and your wonderful vids of the canals, I have just returned from exploring the old locks along the Muskinghum River in Lowell, Ohio. Neat! I was able to understand what I was seeing! Thanks!

    @davidbower9025 Před 5 lety +2

    Ahh, lovely - I'm now looping this video on my laptop screen while working on the big monitor. It's like I'm working from my very own boat and living the dream!! Thanks again, David, another great vid :)

    The beauty never ends. I have seen this one in particular 4 times, start to finish. And with the Vlogs it is the same. Getting to know all the trees and plants, the houses and pubs. And above all the beauty of the canals and rivers, the landscape and animals. Idyllic. So wonderful! Thank you very much

  • @brendamartin7280
    @brendamartin7280 Před rokem +2

    So few people get to experience the awesome beauty of England. This is how life should be lived.

  • @viktoriaelisabethrotenbour8285

    So loved this video that I sat watching this on my TV in wide-screen. 😃😉 I was born and raised in the country side but now live in the city, so miss the wide open spaces and quiet of the country side, but can't afford to move back into the country side. I would if I could. Please please keep them coming.

    @geraldflatt825 Před 5 lety +7

    I love these types of videos. Unfortunately the hum of the engine and the natural sounds of the English countryside has a tranquilizing affect on me and I tend to pass out before the end.

    Another “Stargate portal“ at 36:00! I’d call it Watergate,, but that name draws up such bad reflections, but this one only lovely! And yet another! I love these bridges. I love this waterway. Your skills are so professional. I always enjoy your descriptions, but here you say nothing at all. And here, nothing at all is everything. Just wonderful.

    They are beautiful and many people love them. I am one of those weird people who needs music or voice commentary. I live in the Rocky Mountains and have lots of nature, which we dearly love. I have played some of these silent crises while booking and baking just because it is beautiful, but seldom can even get through a whole video in one sitting. Crazy, I know! Very nice that you do some beautiful work for everyone’s preferences. Smiling

    • @DrPheigth
      @DrPheigth Před 4 lety

      We have a few lakes that are big enough for "house boats" but certainly no meandering canals to go on and on. I sure wish there was something like it in the US, as I'd consider the lifestyle. But, it does make a holiday in the UK sound more intriguing.

  • @benhancock1408
    @benhancock1408 Před 4 lety +4

    Have the CRT given any thought of adding some grass carp into the canal system? They would eat a lot of the vegitation that grows along the banks. I simply adore your videos. Splendidly peaceful.

    My, my David - aren't you the wiley one. A masterful ending to a splendid video, with that perfect down -the-center plunge of that long tunnel, then breaking out to a Hollywood ending by setting your cruise control to follow the lovely long-legged lass all the way to the very end - where she gracefully walks over your boat on that bridge, just to break out into the sunlight for one more eye-candy view. Brilliant!

    @Codalawyer Před 5 lety +4

    That was FUN. Peaceful. Winding holes out in the country. Grass covered bridges to nowhere. A tunnel under a town because; A) we don't want a canal through town or B) someone ran the local brick kiln and wanted to make a fortune.

    @michaeldea6599 Před 5 lety

    I always had a fantasy of owning my own train, but if I did my personal carriage would be on the end with a sofa to watch the world recede, but if I owned a Narrowboat I'd sit in the front and pay somebody to drive it. I can't explain why I find the not-a-vlogs from the bow so relaxing, so recharging, I guess thats why you do it David. I'm sure its a lot of fun to steer and manuever and operate the locks, but if I could spend an hour a day just sitting, maybe with some tea, or a cold beer and a soft cushion....

  • @kenanonymouse
    @kenanonymouse Před 5 lety

  • @thomasfrench2012
    @thomasfrench2012 Před 3 lety +1

    Serene. I guess a positive on a canal without locks that has many overgrown sections is that you can catch long stretches where there is little impact to just peacefully cruising along as you see fit. I do hope that that fly got out of your well deck sooner rather than later as he was going to have a lot explaining to do by the time he flew all the way home to the Mrs.
