Thank you so much 😀

@pilpelet100 3 года назад

Thanks for posting. I enjoyed your walking videos but it's nice to see you back on the cut. Watching narrow boat vlogs it never ceases to amaze me when I see the huge numbers of Canada geese, swans and herons. Going back to my days in England we used to take narrow boat holidays in the late 70s. We saw a few herons but from memory we never saw geese and swans. It's beautiful to see them on the canals (even though they may be a bit of a nuisance sometimes).

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Thank you. The birds are quite localised. Lots of geese, not many swans around here. Other places will be different.

@alistairball2736 3 года назад

On the move again...nice Phil. Cheers

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Nope - the canal is now closed until possibly the end of June! Looks like I'll be turning around and revisiting previous locations for a while. :-(

@grahambaker5235 3 года назад

Good Grief. It’s right you called those Canada Geese Yobs. What a racket.! Great to see you out cruising again but having said that we did enjoy your walks and cycle rides.

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Thank you. More of everything to come...

@gavster_999 15 дней назад

16:30 Love that tune so much! It has become a firm ear worm amongst my closest family including my lovely boys. (Children) They even created some special 'custom' fun - lyrics to it 💕 Loving your work Phil

@NarrowboatJourneys 14 дней назад

That tune is called Flutter.

@phillipbateman2284 3 года назад

Some very nice canal scenery, history and information . A great vlog as usual . Bit of a giggle with the cyclist and the crossover bridge. And when you moored up at the end, the geese suddenly went quite and you walked into view with a hatchet, that was really a hammer. I thought, goose for tea. Thanks, and take care.

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

They disappeared after I stopped there.

@williamsmith2919 3 года назад

@fionnualagriffiths7668 3 года назад

I think at this stage it is so lovely to go anywhere even if it is virtually. And this was a lovely journey which is a bonus. Thank you.

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Thank you. I'm just going to be going over previously visited places. The canal is closed for the next two months. Not expected to reopen until end of June.

@majordolbyscat 3 года назад

So that is twenty one minutes and three seconds of Phil's unique style of capturing canal life that I shall look forward to watching later, nice to see you on water again though I was also really enjoying your rambles on land :)

@JCDiamond 3 года назад

The geese are so loud! Here, they are a nuisance because they tend to go: waddle, waddle, PLOP PLOP. Waddle Waddle PLOP PLOP.Lovely to see the boys too at the end. I've missed them.

@philippankhurst6680 3 года назад

When I ran a model shop in the 1990s, I often took trade stands at shows in the Macclesfield area and I loved staying at Bollington. You have done me proud in recent weeks, on land and on water. It's clearly still a lovely place. Smashing and a sign of normality returning.

@shanehumberstone5262 3 года назад

Great video but hang on,around the 8 minute mark there’s what looks like a ufo goes across the screen lol

There's a clue about that in the intro sequence! 😉

@elspethawake4541 3 года назад

Was a little worried when only 2 ducks seemed to escape your boat at bridge 28. 🦆 🦆 Really like your song after that bridge, would be a good song at a Ren Faire.

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

All three ducks landed in front of my boat. The third duck flew back towards me, and then went over the top of the bridge and re-joined his friends.

Lovely to see Bushka and Midge emerge at the end of your vlog Phil and did I detect a cheeky little smile on your face as you described the exploits of the cyclist versus twisty bridge? I thought so 😉. Great to hear your RU-vid subscribers are increasing. Perhaps the cats need to do a bit of the ‘if you like the vlog click and subscribe’ patter. We should never underestimate the power of cats! 🐱🐱

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

It was pretty dangerous him trying to cycle up there. It's very steep and someone could have been coming down the other way. I did laugh.

Hi Phil. I always enjoy your traveling vlogs.

@sallymander7863 3 года назад

The picture is very clear, felt I could reach in and touch the water. We have some lakes nearby so flocks of Canada geese are always flying over making a racket but I still love to hear them. Hope they were all okay after their disagreements. Lovely to see the cats. 👍🏻😊

@essextrails 3 года назад

Another of my running routes when I visit my daughter in Macclesfield. This one has the advantage over White Nancy in that it is flat. That crossover bridge 29 is very steep and usually very slippery, we hold on tightly when going down. I am not surprised the cyclist nearly came off. Is it just me tuned in to see the alien spaceship at 7.58? All the best.

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Thank you. Those steps are very dodgy.

@jillosler9353 3 года назад

Ducks and geese are the most violent species I have ever witnessed during the mating season. They will kill to get what they want! The canal looks very clean?

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

It's clean because there are very few boats moving right now.

The towpath is so busy these days that the only time they do go out is at night. Safer then.

@lionelmarytravels6003 3 года назад

Another beautiful video in your own immaculate style. Having watched the recent walks, it was nice to see everything from a different perspective. Gosh, those geese were really noisy, as they usually are. Great work once again with the editing and you music. Speaking of which, have you produced another CD yet?

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Thank you. Another CD is a long way off as I have to devote most of my time to making videos. New music tracks will be added as and when I finish them however.

Bushka was walking down the gunwale (canal side) and some geese flew in and splashed down right beside the boat. He panicked and fell in! He was ok.

@whiskymacable 3 года назад

Can I ask how you managed to get the two cats used to the boat and not run off when they first arrived.

@NarrowboatJourneys 3 года назад

Got them at ten or twelve weeks old. Kept them inside for three months, they were too young to go out anyway. Then short supervised outings which gradually got longer. They have Loc8tor tracker tags on their collars which despite the very limited range has found them many times.

Hi Phil David Chave attempting to finish off the last comment that was cut short because my Index finger accidentally touched the wrong button . What I wanted to say that if you have been on this particular part of the Canal the Geese May have recognised the Narrowboat May they remembered the 2 cats inside and said to each other those 2 cats are back David Chave the 2 cats
