    Awwww, this is my favorite ever of your videos so far, Robbie. It was so satisfying watching you bring your narrow boat renovation dreams to life. And I never in a million years dreamed that axe-throwing would look like fun….until now. Well done!

    I have to say this was one of the best narrowboaty vid I've watched. My bruv lives on a narrowboat in Wales & this vid just sums up the great community, camaraderie you will find in basins like this around the country. As you say there's no one-up-manship, just good, sincere people helping each other out. Respect to you, Nev & Barry

    Brilliant stuff Robbie :) Yorkshire is one of those rare places in the country which still has an abundance of ‘real people’. Thanks too for the proof that I’m not the only only one who’s cursed by DIY. It always puts me in a bad mood, even before I start it! Just the thought is enough :p

    Looks really great - dying to see your new curtains. I was sat here watching and saying " you need some new curtains " and wey hey right at the end you say you have some. Love the new furniture it works really well. So glad you're back again. Good to see Barry looking so good. I remember that vlog - great to see how he's gone from strength to strength. Really great vlog thank you

    Great vlog Robbie very honest.
    Like me if I start a job and I have never done it before it's tough but with patience and time to think how too you get there in the end and your right that there is a great deal of satisfaction on your achievements.
    Finding routines that you are comfortable with is of great benefit to your well-being.
    I like you have a pub of the week every week and I really really like going to.
    Keep safe on your travels and try not to fall in the canal
    Thank you for your time and efforts to produce your vlogs it means a great deal to me and my wife we love to see your work.
    Keep safe warm dry and virus free.

    Congratulations to Barry on his 2 years sober. My father in law was in AA and he said every day was a struggle.
    The work on the boat looks great and you are doing it which makes it more personnel. Never tried knife or axe throwing looks fun but not a Pub activity.

    @stanleyclark7758 Před 2 lety +1

    Hi Robbie. What a cracking job you and Nev have made with your new furniture using a mixture of new and recycled materials. Look forward to seeing the new curtains up, and afterwards perhaps a quick walkthrough showing before and after? I know, it’s always ‘work in progress’! 😂 I was intrigued by the disused canal junction with the missing lock gates and sharp return towards the end of your vlog. Hopefully you will be covering that in your next vlog. If not, could you advise where exactly that is? Anyway, thanks for such interesting content. Stay safe and stay well. “Keep on crankin’”. Stan 👍😀🤓
