  1. or they may suffer from objectophilia and fall for the hairdryer instead ?
  2. it’s easier to do hand signals without a glove on
  3. definitely of interest if you're the skipper of a 175ft banana boat
  4. what if you call yourself an idiot? asking for a friend

  6. can i report @matty40s for posting unsettling images? just glad i wasn’t eating Wotsits at the time
  7. to add a bit of balance to this, here’s a comment from the latest video, DinoGirl being the young lady who posted the vids
  8. my mistake then, i'd watched that a few days ago and was going from memory, i'd assumed being on bollards it was the lock landing as i don't know the area and all towpath moorings i've ever seen are rings
  9. on a lock landing below a lock, hence its the lockies fault as he emptied the lock to stabilise the levels is what she said i think
  10. a towel and natural air temp
  11. James and the giant pulse?
  12. it's the long winter months combined with covid, there's much less snark when it's possible to go boating for non-liveaboards
  13. find a local firm with a CNC router and you should get a fair few out of a sheet of ply or two, imagine the painting would take all the time and labour though.
  14. OMG yes hun, they totes need to get away to recharge
  15. have you tried espares or partmaster or ukwhitegoods?
  16. it's what i was thinking, but didn't like to speculate too far. with the increase in people wanting staycations i can imagine there's been a boom in the purchase of so-called shepherds huts and yurts as well for those looking to cash in on the rise of feckless holidaymakers who don't mind paying through the nose for a "quirky" holiday let.
  17. Have a google for "navvies ark", not sure if they did a build blog or anything but several interviews with various publications, might be a way to get in touch with them. Passed it on the Leeds & Liverpool in 2015 and is probably the best lifeboat conversion i've ever seen on the canals. personally i can't imagine living in one, but would make a good weekender or AirBNB i suppose, if it had its own mooring
  18. thats not the target audience of these vlogs though, its for those dreamers with disposable income who love the idea of a cosy boat all shabby chic’d with Farrow & Ball and dripping with Laura Ashley and willing to sign up to their patreon scheme

  21. watch your fingers when lining the legs up to put back or you’ll be doing the “desmo dance” (consists of hopping about alternating from madly waving hand and hand jammed under armpit whilst chanting the ancient incantation “sheetfeck sheetfeck huw b’staaaaard!”) in conjuction with a raised dinette this can also be combined with the ritual of “head the light fitting”, you can guess how i know this
  22. made this today, very tasty but i feel it was let down by the chorizo i could get hold of from Asda (no picante left), but i curbed the spices due to daughter (fussy teen) so 1/2 tsp chilli and 1/2 tsp mild curry. turned out she didn’t like the “texture” anyway ? myself and the wife enjoyed it though, will make again
