New Patreon and creating vlogs… Day 199

Tuesday 6th February Day 199

I’ve had the best sleep ever and don’t wake up until 9.50am! ((you lazy…)) I know. It happens maybe once every year and more than that I wake up feeling restful and actually well for the first time in a few weeks and ready to take on the world! ((Oh Lord!)) big list made and first job is to go to the shops as Chris’s back is feeling better after resting it and we need milk for coffees.

There seem to be a lot more narrowboats out and about at Great Haywood canal junction and we cannot wait to join them. More and more our chats are going to where we are going to go and of course, this is all weather dependent but unless we are frozen in I don’t see why we wont go as we are ready to cruise. The only issue is getting the bow and stern painted but if we don’t we will just have to figure it out. ((I can just see you climbing through the duck hatch – perhaps you fit a lift to get you out so you don’t stand on the stern or bow))

I seem to have an okayish wi-fi signal but it still takes 5 hours to finish creating the vlog to upload for my Patreons to watch before it goes onto YouTube and I welcome a new Patreon Bonnie to The Plot crew. ((You will soon have enough people to crew a dingy)) Oi, don’t be rude! Without them you would be silenced and not allowed out every day ((I love our Patreons; Sandra and Ann are my favourite though)) Hey, you’re not allowed favourites – just because they want you to have merchandise!

It’s the standard washing day and wandering to the laundry room – will there, won’t there be someone using it? Turns out there is but just the dryer. Anyway later on I go back and end up having the standard laundry room chat about life. Very pleasant. What else to report ((Oh don’t forget you spilt the white spirits)) Oh yeah, thanks for that. We were doing another coat of varnish and decided to move everything into the bow and as a result of the boat rocking ((Always an excuse)) I knocked over the tub with white spirits. Luckily, it was in the bow so at least not in the inside of the boat. One step forward…

We are still watching New Zealand videos and creating a play list of which ones we are going to upload. It was amazing watching the helicopter ride. Brings back so many amazing memories. We’ve uploaded the little vlog we did to music about finding the hermit’s cave at Elizabeth Castle in Jersey if you fancy a watch… day done. Until tomorrow. x
