  • In this vlog it's turning cold as autumn sets in and we have very little coal or wood on board our narrowboat Thistle & Rose. We leave the Staff's & Worcestershire Canal and join the Shropshire Union canal searching for somewhere that sells coal.
    We have family staying aboard, a breakdown in Wifi and visit a great village pub.
    We also enjoy the autumn colours and tranquil surroundings of this canal with it's lovely villages, great pubs and awesome wildlife.
    See the Heron fly-by and also come face to face with a huge Peacock.
    Follow us as we continue to explore the Canals & Rivers of England living our alternative lifestyle.

    Hello, it’s great to join you at the start of this journey. Enjoying your perspective and your dynamic. Funny. Love the dancing. We are about to buy a narrowboat, small for weekends and holidays. Very excited. If we spot you on the canal we’ll give a wave. We also have a nutty puppy. Labrador, they may be able to bark at each other. Take care, looking forward to watching your adventures. J

      Good luck with your new boat. Like a lady said to us when we first got ours, 'you won't like it, you'll love it'
      Definitely give us a wave when you join the cut. Thanks.

    Really enjoying your vlog. Could you show the next use of a winding hole, with your bow thrusters and verbal commentary? Thank you for your posts?

    • @thenarrowboatgoodlife

      Thanks for the suggestion! Great idea. Keep watching and we'll add our views of using our Bow thrusters in coming vlogs. Thanks for watching

    Seriously guys, fuel for the fire should never be an issue .As cruisers, you are continually passing totally sustainable fuel sources in the name of timber, so high on any priority list, should be a cordless chainsaw such as to allow you constant access to this fuel source. 😃

    I could not help but notice the gold record in the frame on your wall. Did one of you make a record that sold a million copies ? :)

      Thanks for watching, welcome aboard. The fuel boats travel on a schedule and it went passed us a few days before but we'll be filming when we do use it. 👍

    I would like to purchase one
    Can you send me your specs and who your builder is
    Would you consider selling yours?

    • @thenarrowboatgoodlife
      @thenarrowboatgoodlife  Před rokem +1

      Our boat was built by Aintree boats.
      Thistle and Rose is not for sale. We hope to have many years aboard her. Thanks for watching

    what is interesting to me, a Yank, you drive on the left, but yet you boat on the right ...hhhmmm Also using Imperial measurements rather then metric. Hands up in the air!!!

    • @thenarrowboatgoodlife
      @thenarrowboatgoodlife  Před rokem

      Can't help you there I'm afraid, although Narrowboats were obviously moving over 100yrs before cars were invented. Don't get us Brits started on Imperial v Metric, we're still recovering from arguments over Brexit! :)) Thanks for watching, always great to hear from people over the pond.
