This is a further continuation of my journey taking narrowboat Gentian from where I bought it down to the Midlands where it will be moored for the foreseeable future. Here I go from Alrewas to Kings Orchard marina, managing to let the boat crash forwards in a turbulent lock through not paying attention.

I love these videos and this is a particularly pretty stretch of canal. Noticed that kayak with plants in the middle... Captain's log indeed! So nice when you meet nice folks!!! Thanks!!!

Bales of Hay. Not dried grasses, hay us for dairy cows that make milk. First cutting, very good for kids. Thank you for the wonderful video.

Val

Love your boating videos and your van videos as much! We thank you for the lovely, informative and sometimes funny videos. Takes our minds off what is going on here in the US.

Thank you. I'm sorry I'm unable to do much (any) van stuff at present, I'm extremely limited on time due to a family care issue. But I'm glad the videos are providing enjoyment.

Thanks David. I find that people are nice if you are nice to them so that speaks volumes for your cheerful, helpful disposition.
