Paul, Liz and Captain Ernie Wonderful seeing all three of you again. Paul it's time to pull out the saw and hammer. Time to build Liz a 2" high step that will raise her up while working the tiller. Whatcha think Liz? Either that or Captain Ernie is going to have to learn how to guide you LIz. You Guys are wonderful, thank you for taking the time to produce the videos. Mark Alberta, Canada

*Morena Liz, Paul & Ernie 🙂 Captain Liz you are doing brilliantly steering the boat now.... scary tho with the sunken boat.. 🙂 Ohhhh Paul more drama's with the pushbike!! Paul also buy a small electric chainsaw to cut up the firewood... 🙂 House 23 is becoming more common these days for some folks... at least they have some sort of a roof over their head. But I hope that they are safe at night-time. As it didn't look to be the greatest of safest place in that area. Love the drone shots... and seeing the countryside from above. 🙂nz*

@uponreflection

Hi there, yes green slime is now in the tyres, think he paid an additional £7 or something on top of his yearly membership thing at Halfords. Doubt our little channel will get freebies and to be honest we would then have to review and plug it and we said from the start that we wouldn't do that on here but maybe one day if we keep struggling with the bike we got 😉😊

Hilarious with the bike, you were so genuinely disappointed, arrrh. Won't they eventually pull the sunken canal boat up... could have caused a real issue well observed.

Does the government do maintenance on the canals, and also cleanup when needed?
@uponreflection
7 ай бұрын
Government no. They have just cut their funding for the canals but the canal and river trust are a charity organisation that look after 2000miles of the canal and do maintenance and clean ups but to be fair we've had so many storms of late causing fallen trees, landslides, damage and floods etc they probably are probably so busy. 😊

Sad times on the canals as the CRT is kicking the poor of the canals ,by taking them to court to get them off the living on their boats .The CRT need to do the jobs like you have just spotted .Use the money there . But no they are after the poor and the CRT just what the rich on the canals and no others . So sad to see what they are up to.
