Hi Paul, Anthony and Dexter-Dog. Goodness what a week it has been. A new PM and then a new Monarch. Emotions everywhere. It was so nice an reassuring that everything will be all right when I was able to sit down and watch your (as always) brilliant Vlog. You were very lucky to make it back using the Anderton boat lift, and considering Paul booked it to go in the wrong direction too!!!! And earlier Anthony, you were not too sure of the direction back to your boat, and you half smiled a knowing smile (so funny)! So good to know nothing changes on that front. Poor Dexter-Dog not liking the lift. Was it because of the noise or just the size of the amazing structure. I think Paul was looking for sympathy saying he was a sickly child, so funny in the content of the banter, but still "Bless Him" (Paul). It's been a really hectic week, and only today Prince William was seen on a Walk-about with Prince Harry? I need to lie down!!!! Great Vlog, well edited, starring two great guys and a special Dexter-Dog. Have a great week. Take care.

Glad it was him as I wouldn’t have heard the end of it 😂 Dexter didn’t like the lift. Do think it was the sounds. I am hopeless with directions. Paul definitely is a hypochondriac 😂. Feel sorry for the family loosing a mother and grandmother. Hope you have a good week. Take care ❤️

Happy Saturday! 🥰 The boat lift is very interesting. I hope they get it fixed soon but it sounds like it will be awhile. A lot of inconvenience for a lot of people but if it isn't safe it's what has to be done. Glad you made it back up before it was too late! It was really nice to get a lift to the car. 😊 I was really sad to hear about the queen. She was an exceptional woman. I watched several PBS shows about her at the Diamond Jubilee in 2012 and it was amazing to see how structured her life was and how hard she worked. She obviously took her job of being queen very seriously. ❤ Have a great week and take care.

May even be as late as April 2023 apparently. It was sad re the queen. She had dedicated her whole life to serving the nation. Really sad. Have a great week. Take care ❤️

Loved this weeks cruise ❤️. Beautiful scenery. The river is amazing! You two had me giggling with Anthony’s re-enactment of how he gets the coal bag out of the locker😂😂. Paul you’re a worry-wart!😂. “We’ve only got five minutes!” And Anthony’s not worried. Glad you made it up before the lift broke. Lots of us in America mourning the loss of The Queen, you would be amazed at the outpouring of love for her here🇺🇸🇬🇧❤️. Being a history lover I am watching all the ceremonies taking place as Charles becomes king. Britain does pageantry like no other country. Have a blessed week.

Hey Dawn. Glad you enjoyed. It really is exactly like that when I lift coal 😂. Paul is a worry wort. He needs to chill more. It’s his Dad’s fault, he is the same. Can’t believe after all that he had booked the wrong way 😂. Gutted the lift is broken as we were going to go down onto the river again as it is so beautiful. It is such a sad time. End of an era. 70 years of dedicated duty. We are definitely good at pomp and ceremony and it is likely a one time historical event for us. Hope you and your family are keeping well. Love from us all. ❤️

At least the pins didn’t fail while you were in the lift😳. Looks like you found a beautiful spot to moor up , so pretty. Everything is fine here, the heat has backed off just enough that I’m not melting but still lovely and sunny days for the kids starting school . Tai is still hanging in there, he’s spry and enjoying life thank heavens, maybe he had Covid or something like it for cats. There was a week or so we were surprised he’d made it through the night but he did. Take care, be safe and well. 🙋🏼‍♀️🥰

Hi guys. . . That boat lift just amazes me. The engineering involved all those years ago is remarkable. Just picking up on the chat about your new boat. . . . If you did go full electric would you be able to get enough solar in the Winter months to continuely cruise?. You guys seem up on your tech so looking forward it could be a good move to go electric but like you said it comes down to cost. . . I'm sure you would get your money back quickly due to the rising price of diesel. Have a great week and thanks for sharing your journey. Take care.

@anthonysmith-storey9247 Год назад
Hey Mark. I agree, the engineering of the time is amazing and still impressive today. We have had provisional figures and we reckon we will save a 1/4 cost of diesel. Regarding the winter, it just means that the back up diesel generator will kick in more often but time will tell. Have a great week ❤️

Hello You Three - greetings from Poland That was a wonderful video. The cruise on the River Weaver, up on the Anderton Boat Lift and onto the Trent and Mersey Canal was lovely. I always find the lift experience very exciting. It proves just how wonderful the canal community are - lift on a boat back to the boat lift to pick up your car. I don't think this type of community spirit is found anywhere else. Hope the trip to the dentist wasn't too traumatic Paul. Dexter looks great. Canal life must suit him very well. Love to you all

Beautiful Dexter. Anthony, I know you said you're allergic and need to get a specific breed of dog, but you can still rescue. There are so many rescues for all kinds of breeds. I'm sure with the reach that you have through your channel you could find a suitable rescue dog. Just a thought and what a lucky dog that would be because you guys are such marvelous dog parents. Just know that Dexter crossed over the rainbow bridge and is frolicking with other dogs without any pain or discomfort. I've had to send many of my furry family there. ❤ A vet once told me the greatest gift we can give our pets is to let them go when their time here on earth is up.

Hey Nick. The Weaver is beautiful and worse places to be stuck I guess but relieved we weren’t at the same time. The only way back onto the canal is through a huge lock and onto the commercial Manchester ship canal. It looked scary! The car chasing is a pain but come January, I am going down to 2 days. We shouldn’t theoretically have to move the car as often then 🤞 Hope you have a fab week. Take care ❤️

Morning guys and Dexter! Spectacular cruising up and down the River Weaver the last few weeks. So glad you made it back up on the on the Anderton boat lift. We can't get over that was built in 1875. It's just an amazing feat for the time. Heart warming to see acts of kindness within the community of the narrow boaters! We are so so excited for you and Dexter for the future boat build and all the new features. Can't wait to see you all cruising on your new boat and the adventures to come. Special love sent to the whole of the United Kingdom during the loss of a GREAT Lady Queen Elizabeth ll may you Rest In Peace. 👑 Thanks for sharing a part of your daily lives and enjoy a lovely weekend.

Hey guys. Always good to hear from you all. We had an amazing time on the Weaver. It is sad re the boat lift but I guess structures of this age need a lot of maintenance. Fingers crossed it will be back up and running mid next year. We are really excited re the new boat and can’t wait until we have footage we can share. The interior has gone into production and the shell build starts next month so we should start to see something filmable (don’t actually think that is a word) by January. It is a very sad time and an end of an era. It is lovely to hear other world leaders pay their respects too. Hope you guys have a nice weekend planned. Love to you, Dean Greta and Johann.

Thanks Paul and Anthony, always look forward to your videos, and big hugs to Dexter too. BTW, because of last weeks video I subscribed to Heidi, she reminds me a lot of a lady I used to know in the late 1990's who lived in Amsterdam. She traveled to Durban where I lived regularly, and we would meet up for drinks when she was around. What was special about her was that we would freak people out as I would speak to her in Afrikaans and she would speak to me in Dutch. I understand Dutch as it is quite close to Afrikaans. What was also nice is that she was a lady who did not hold back on her language either, I think any sailors who could understand us would blush if they heard her speak. Heidi has that character that my friend had, I would think she is a hoot at a party.

But everywhere has its own niceness. I like the fact that your best memories of being on the river were to do with socialising and being with friends, its true, with friends any place is a enjoyable.
