I bet many think because you are from London and are photographers, you and Andrew are not “real” narrowboaters. But this video should remind such people that Andrew and his family have a very long history of working on the canals. I doubt there are many living on canal boats today have a lock bearing their family name! And well done Kris!

Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉🍾 You did it!!! Cheers to the Braunston Tunnel Survivors Club!! You did great Kris! Personally I would have been in the boat, flat out on the floor crying. You even passed another boat!!! Loved that Andrew’s mom was there helping with the locks and then the large group of woman watching you. Amazing that Andrew had the Raymond’s tiller pin and the family windlass, which looked immaculate, and that the lock was named after his dad. Andrew and his mom were great. You kicked butt Kris…. and found religion. Have a drink🍷 You deserve it. Thank you. 😊🤗 Kathy

Great job getting all the locks done Kris, imagine the pecs and glutes you’re going to have by the end of the summer😂. Well done in the tunnel as well, I think I’d have had to get off and walk above ground🫣. So nice to see Andrew’s mum on the boat and listening to her tell stories from her time on the boats. Lovely scenery as usual, you both just have an eye to make the mundane spectacular🥰🙋🏼♀️

Fantastic episode! The challenge and the daring! White shirt remained unstained through lock gears and gates and unsullied beneath dripping tunnel seams! The photography was, as usual, beautiful and shot with unusual angles. The physicality of the locks, the warmth of being with Andrew’s mum, and the terror of the tunnel involved this loyal viewer as nothing else I’ve seen in days. Bronston Tunnel Survivors Club - Huzzah!

Wow! Kris, you’re a rockstar! Nice job on the tunnel!! I wasn’t even on the boat and I was sweating. Andrew is the absolute calm in the face of chaos, real or imagined. Never thought 2 boats would fit to pass each other but like Kris said more room than she thought. Rosemary, you’re also a rockstar. I loved hearing your stories about the locks and tunnels. Your family is truly an amazing source of knowledge about long boating. Don’t know if that’s the proper term but you get my gist. Don’t let your knowledge get lost. Record it either on tape, film or by writing. It’s an important piece of information. Well I hope to see you all next time. Be well and thanks for taking us along. Love from the states.❤ ooh, I know…publish a booklet about your time on the canals .

The KZitem algorithm has ‘found you’ I have been watching some channels over the last few months Your canal boat is amazing. It’s how you and others manage to live in what is a confined space but you make it work. I suppose it makes you think about ‘clutter’ and ‘ stuff’. My house is full of ‘stuff’ and if I had to downsize I would have to get rid of a lot My relative is selling his flat in Notting Hill for around £700k. He has no ‘ties’ and has gone back to painting rather than his stall at Portobello Market This lifestyle would be ideal. Moor up at Little Venice Anyway ‘keep calm and carry on’ I live in Birmingham. We have more canals than Venice. ❤️❤️😃😃🏴🏴🏴👍 👍 😎😎😍😍😊😊

WELL DONE that girl. We have friends that used to live on the canal, near Skipton on the Leeds to Liverpool. We did have a nice day out with them, however I admit I chickened out of going through the mile tunnel at Foulridge, we met them on the other side. This tunnel does have traffic lights, but I'm just too clostrafobic . You most definitely deserve a glass or two. CHEERS It was nice to see Andrew's mum, I bet she can tell us a few stories about canal life. Already looking forward to your next video. Regards to you all, cheers Millysue

BTW, I wouldn't recommend wearing Crocs for anything that involves water underfoot. They're great and comfortable but can get extremely slippy.

Love the vibes. One small thing maybe because watching on a phone.. maybe turn down the sound of boats, water / main sound of footage to let the music when music is being used, the piano is lovely at the start and would be great when there is less talking and more footage, nonetheless.. this is no criticism I love it!

Dead at the rhyme, hahaha. Might have to get that done in cross stitch for the wall! No possessive on the Lock name for whatever reason. Would have been boots in the olden days I reckon. All the photos I’ve seen of working boaters everyone was very smartly dressed, we’re utter slobs in comparison.
