Good afternoon Will. Another interesting video-a gentle cruise. Re the Glasson Branch, you had me worried there with it being locked! I read canal magazines monthly and hadn't picked up on any closure. So I looked at CRT website and one broken paddle and one leaky lock, but otherwise functional! Thank goodness. When you do get there, or maybe you already have, be aware the long wall on the right as you enter the basin is a very rough spot to moor in high winds. Big banging waves! I looked up hire boats and there's quite a few providers on the Lancaster and I know most if not all don't allow hirers to take their boats down the Branch. All the best. Paul.😊

As per usual will you have produced another stunning video .. they are always interesting and informative and interesting to watch.. Many places you have shown in this video brings back memories of my grandparents who used to spend most of Thier time on this canal.. They owned a working boat and delivered coal and fuel ..to people on boats and village shops.. Strangely enough they hated transporting salt... because it would rust the hull . Of Thier boats... they say that it was the good old days..???? Growing up on the canals in the good old days.???? Was nothing more than hard work from the time you woke up to the time you went to sleep. One good thing about the good old days and that's the fact that locks were always in good working order... Anyway will keep smiling mate . life is to short to worry about things .. stay safe and well will.👍👍👍.

Sounds like your grandparents were serious grafters because it was all load by hand. I can't imagine being covered in salt. What it must do to steel and leather. Great history though Wayne. Thanks for the comment.

Sui looks after you she looked great cooking did she just come out the shower left her bag on her head lol. Keeps hair from smelling of cooking i know 😅 That looks a great canal pity all locked up id be ok on my kayak but in and out passing the locks not enjoyable. Glad you watched my youtube video i seen you left a comment, my videos arent great the editing takes too long on my 22 min ladt video not doing one that long again. At least i stuck with it trying editing video. Pity not many viewings though. Maybe one day i will be as good as you eh lol. By the way loved the bench press you have built in gym why not and dumb bells too. Have fun enjoy yourself come down cointry to Brinklow sometime. Kev the brinklow kayaker

Shui, welcome back from your Taiwan travels. I do hope your family back home are well and happy. You and Will still look great together, and he really does need someone to look after him. I haven't watched much RU-vid for a while and lost track of Will's adventures, and noticed your site had closed. Will, you're looking happier and better than you have for a long while. Crikey, I remember that Polkington canal ??, what a nightmare. If You're after another propeller, just take photo's to prove you can't travel a section. Great to see you two together. Take care.

That's a very pretty canal, especially now you've got leaves on the trees. When you get a mower sputtering like when you were taking in water, don't you want to just sort it out for them? Put some petrol in or clean the carb or something. I hate it when I hear an engine doing that. Lol.

Your brain power lose has many names will. my wife has Dementia not good Will I have brain farts senior moments now which Will probably turn into some more exciting and colorful problems all bad nothing good about losing it. But Hell at 81 something has to wear out or break . The only problem is you can't get it fixed at the local chandlery. Stay safe say hi To the X the food looked great we just had spaghetti for an early lunch here in San Diego with green salad garlic bread and fresh garden house salad . Stay safe you 2 .

Will listen to your body. If you have lost weight, go to the doctor and have your blood checked. Ask them to check your count for cancer. PS you are not a candidate for Alzheimer's. You are just the same as the rest of us, getting a little older, things are just more difficult to remember. Good doses of sun and go pick dandelions and nettles fresh and make tea. Take care of yourself mate! ❤️
@NarrowboatWill
@NarrowboatWill 2 месяца назад
I've heard about dandelions and fresh nettles. I think you can eat them both. I must've eaten something dodgy because I'm OK now. Some food really irritates my bowel, but the doctors are completely useless at healthy eating diets. I've been many times to my old doctor many bloating, etc. He said I was eating too fast. I kid you not.. I might go onto a carb free diet with zero sugar. 😥😭 Cheers for watching

@@NarrowboatWill just hop off the boat every morning and pick dandelions and nettles just a couple of sprigs, pop them into a pot and pour boiling water over . Let them sit for 10 minutes. You can sweeten with honey. Maybe pay and go private.
