This is it, the current terminus of the Ashby Canal is just a handful of miles away. This final section is said to offer the finest, most gorgeous scenery so far - perhaps even of any canal on the network.
Before reaching the end of what has been a very 'mixed' and surprising journey, I still have the small matter of strong winds gusting to 50mph, as well as a tunnel (which carries the canal under the village of Snarestone), to contend with.

@JaEDLanc Год назад

I love your channel Kevin, I binged watched on Amazon about 4 years ago and even though this is my 11th year on the boat and you think that a single handed continuous cruiser would not want to watch another but I do and I love it! It’s had work because I’m so far out of touch with the world I never know what day it is, until Friday 😂😂😂 I used to know when it was a Sunday because of church bells but you don’t hear them anymore I’m not religious but at last it was a good way of letting folk know it was the end of a weekend 😂

@ksweet696 Год назад

Sounds like a great life!

@JaEDLanc Год назад

@@ksweet696 it is and I wouldn’t change it even though it’s getting increasingly harder but I look at it like this, it’s getting harder everywhere.

I felt for you in that wind….must have been frozen. All very beautiful though……I reckon the Ashby is particularly attractive. Glad to have seen it.

@CountryHouseGent Год назад

The wind definitely cut like a knife Rikki.

@templar1694 Год назад

Solar energy has changed nomadic lifestyle like this. Narroboating, sailing, van life and even camping. You have convenience on the go.

@mitchkahle314 Год назад

CountryHouseGent's videos are the best, in my opinion, because Kevin keeps everything real and does not include annoying background music. The natural sound and his spontaneous narration are the charm.

@mikebrown6805 Год назад

@LarrySams71 Год назад

well done Kevin, another season wrapped...the Ashby is my favorite of the canals you've travelled, gorgeous even in the dead of winter -- one can only imagine how luxuriant and lush the vegetation appears in high summer...I must say that your technical skill in recording the sights has visibly improved with each installment...have a great break -- of course we all look forward to your next post!!

@tgcrowson Год назад

Thanks, Kevin for another great episode. I’ve noticed with football results, the voice note should go down on the losing score and up (with a slightly surprised emphasis) for the losing score. Draws are read with a flat tone. I need to get out more.

@CountryHouseGent Год назад

I remember the voice of the football scores on Grandstand back in the 80's. He became very famous for it. 🙂

Heck, I'm familiar with that stretch of road Robert. Very exposed and on a bike as well, bowel clenchingly disconcerting. :)

Hi Kevin. A tip………when pinned to a lee shore, take your boat pole with you to push you further off, enough to let you motor off before the wind blows you back on again!!! Best regards. Capt John

Well done! *flicks Bic lighter, waves it slowly up high, back and forth* Yes, please, to the sausage and beans and especially the bread and butter. The microphone Tribble is quite appealing.

Friday viewing sorted again. I visited Skipton earlier today and had a ride on a narrowboat. I remember when you visited there a while back Kevin. What a gorgeous place. And YES I did find that award winning Pork Pie shop.

@CountryHouseGent Год назад

Cool, sounds like fun Daniel. Skipton is a wonderful spot on the Leeds Liverpool. Very good to hear the pork pie shop is still going. Must get back there and try another one or three. Hope you found that they lived up to my hype? 🙂

@lizmottram7902 Год назад

@@CountryHouseGent We too were in Skipton last week, We went to the WRONG PIE SHOP first before we found Stanforth's round the corner. Stanforth's had better meat but the WRONG PIE SHOP had better pastry. After that, we found a third "award winning" pie shop but we didn't try that because we were "all pied out." Then I happened upon Fran and Rich - no pie connection.

Hi Kevin yes that's exactly my thoughts those trees as I was moored at the end in September 2021 and had a windy couple of days so all I could see in my mind was a row of fallen trees so I quickly got out as it's a place you could be stuck for a few weeks while the CRT decide to get it cleared I have just had the same thought today on the K&A going through the Bruce Tunnel anyway great to see you're trip on the Ashby Canal 😊

Hi Kevin, did you notice the absence of detritus in the canal and on the towpath on the Ashby canal. It has a reputation for being one of the cleanest canals on the Midland circuit, that's why we loved it so much, take care, Paul & Lyn, NB Emily.
