  • description: I'm back onboard my narrowboat, the Jolly Roger, after our epic Scottish adventure — and this time we're heading back along the beautiful Llangollen Canal towards Wales. I haven't cruised this stretch since February, and what a difference summer makes! The canal is green, busy and full of life... although with summer comes hire boat season, busy locks and, on this trip, a rather long wait at New Marton Locks! After hiring a boat ourselves on the Caledonian Canal, I've also come back with a slightly different perspective on hire boaters. We were complete newbies to that boat and everything felt like an adventure, so perhaps I need to remember that next time I'm waiting at a bridge hole... although using my paintwork as a fender is still strictly forbidden! 😂 Gabby joins me for the second cruising day after driving ahead to meet me at the destination. However I was delayed nearly two hours at the locks. We finally make it through, fill the water tank and continue on towards St Martins for the night. There's also plenty of real narrowboat life along the way, including some upcoming DIY and maintenance jobs, my recent shower-pump nightmare, and I'm introducing a couple of new little features to the vlogs. So grab a brew (or a rum!), come aboard and join me, Bonny and eventually Gabby for a couple of summer cruising days on the Llangollen Canal. 🏴‍☠️❤️ Heidi & Bonny xx ------------ Thank you so much for watching. If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Jolly Roger and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy and the perfect First Mate. I also work full time off grid from my floating home making badges and trading at canal festivals as The Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Pirate Boat. ----------- For more info such as Filming Equipment, FAQ and more: 🏴‍☠️ https://thepirateboat.co.uk 🏴‍☠️ ------------- You can also follow my adventures as the Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Jolly Roger, Pirate Boat here: 🟦 Facebook - https://facebook.com/thenarrowboatpirate 🟥 Instagram - https://instagram.com/thenarrowboatpirate ⬛️ Website - https://thepirateboat.co.uk ------------- 🎵 Music 🎹 A Little Tug by Heidi Manning A Lovely Pair by Heidi Manning The Jolly Roger by Heidi Manning Stiff Ripples by Heidi Manning The Thrusting Cutlass by Heidi Manning ------------ 🥃 If you would like to support the channel you can 'Buy a Rum' : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thepirateboat/ ------------- 🅿️ Paypal Donations: https://PayPal.me/TheNarrowboatPirate/ ------------- ❤️ Become a Patreon and long term supporter on the channel for live updates: https://www.patreon.com/TheNarrowboatPirate ------------- #Narrowboat #canalboat #boatlife #vanlife #solofemaletravel
