Boating through the town of Stone - more narrowboat journeys on the Trent and Mersey Canal.

That was a special yellow inspection train, that travels the networking scanning the track, taking digital photos of any problems.

Q. Why have 2 bicycles in the way ??

lovely views...never seen a bright yellow train before....sad the brats had nothing better to do with their boring lives....

Great to see people wanting and actually helping :-)

Great information for me before going there next year. Love the clear, authentic sound (no windnoise) and filming. Keep it up, Phil.

Another lovely vlog, thanks Phil. I don't blame you for rushing through those locks, what is wrong with the youth today. They don't realise they are destroying their own future. I was enjoying watching your vlog, then my cat Boots demanded I brush him in the middle of it, and obviously I had to obey!

The Marks & Spencer’s on your right coming out of the lock do the best jam doughnuts 4 for a pound ! Just returned back home from Aston marina

Thank you very much Phil. Enjoy your vids very much

Hello Phil, Hope everything is going ok and keeping healthy to you and your cats!

Phil before I forget? What were the men doing just before they 1st lock? On the right, trap?

Great vlog as always. Beautiful scenery. Lovely relaxing cruise. Thank you for sharing. So nice to have help at the locks.

Lovely Vlog , with pleasant music as always. You seem have found a patch of good weather.

Such a nice vlog today.. I love how easy it is for me to follow along on Google Earth. I don’t get a chance to do that with some other vloggers. I appreciate your cruising pace and relaxed style… thank you💜

A pleasant trip with a tidy well presented canal. Was wondering how long these little vandals stay a burden on society, and if a good swift kick up the arse and a few words might do a world of good. Thanks Phill, and do take care.

Great video Phil. Stone is a pretty, clean , nice looking town. Of course, kids everywhere can be mischievous. I'm curious, if you don't mind me asking; how many different narrowboats and cats have you had in those 30 years? Also, I've never seen anyone move a lever before, that was in front of you. May I ask what that is for? We had a 24 ' pontoon boat for years and, of course, we forgot to untie our ropes too from time to time. Getting in too much of a hurry. Been there, done that. Take care and travel safe out there Phil.

Is "lava" the skin tone of boaters during summer?

Love the focus on audio!

It's so very nice having help on the locks especially if you're tired.

Went through there last week. Impressed. A town which seems to have embraced it's waterway and made the most of it. (Unlike Stoke on Trent 😟)

Nice one Phil. I have a soft spot for Stone. The modern flats just before Joules old brewery used to be a builders called Horace Poole. I used to work there in the early 70’s. Unfortunately Stone has developed a bit of a reputation in the last few years.

Hi Phil. What were you doing in those locks? Pulling the boat through by hand. The weather improved for you, didn’t it. It’s very rare that you film In cloudy conditions. I would trust those kids any further than I could throw them. What I call vandalism

That was a squeaky train. Ha! I loved bridge 95. It was long for a bridge next to a lock.

"little darlings," lol. Thanks for the video Phil. Lovely little town.

I am always interested in the scenery. Is it legal to show peoples backyards in the cities?

I love the tranquility of your videos. No unnecessary chatter and sometimes some beautiful music. Wonderful! And, of course, the added bonus of the furry companions sometimes: :-)

Phil , when you first moved onto your narrowboat did you think you would still be living there 30 years later or has life just panned out that way ? .

good vid phil keep it cranked on the cut thanks four the good vid on the cut lee
