From the second I heard Morgan Freeman's voice and watched y0our lips moving, I remembered why I have enjoyed watching Holly - The Cafe Boat. Y'alls humor is so bright and cheerful. The look of Vic hunting for those littles spots on another boat. Jo's look when she ate that first bite of cheesecake. These are priceless bits of your lives that y'all share with us. Thank you so much.

Excellent. I worked in TV for almost 40 years and that opening sequence was one of the best I have ever seen. Absolutely awesome, and the cheesecake looked almost worth flying to England for. Maybe next summer. An address for a card would be appreciated, if you guys feel comfortable with that.

I had a guy aboard brought up on a working boat, slept in the drawer & bathed by his Mum on the back deck, then held by one ankle & rinsed off upside down in the canal. Literally.

Wow that opening shot of you guys is just beautiful. Is it pending parenthood that is growing on you both that has you both looking so relaxed, happy and well? Great video thank you for sharing your little piece of the world with us all. Dee, Australia

You couldn’t make a quick get away in that boat 😂. What a beautiful boat though 🥰

We (my 6-year-old daughter and I) went for a walk along the Trent last Sunday ( bit breezy) not a lot going on, so we walked up the Erewash, DD had her camera and was merrily snapping away at the Swans, ducks and narrowboats, we saw Zero and I thought oh nobody is home, we walked passed and went up to the bridge and back, it was then I could see the heat haze from the chimney on Zero, DD took another photo and then I realised Vic was there gazing out the window! It suddenly felt like we were intruding from the opposite side of the canal so I hurried her along! Loved the Morgan Freeman at the start of the video!l

Great video 👍. Lovely to see you both back. That's a great "East Midlands" accent that David has! And a great boat too! 🙂

That was LOVELY guys .. Might I recall that 77 years ago in London NW6 - my mum used to make-up MY bed in the bottom drawer of an old chest of drawers - and when the sirens wailed to warn of German bombers overhead .. she would slide my drawer gently closed and go sit under the basement stairs with my big 2 y.o. sister Barbara until the 'All Clear' was signaled. - Dad was away in the army Commandos.

I know I tend to forget things as I get older, but I sure don't remember Morgan Freeman looking so pretty.

So joyful to see you again. You’re not just vloggers you’re influencers. I can that because you influenced me to take the plunge and hire a narrowboat for a week and to buy a Filson bush hat and attach a leather chinstrap so I could look like Vic. Had a wonderful time with my wife cruising on the Oxford canal. We really bonded as a crew just like you two and survived this week’s cloudbursts thanks to that hat. I’m totally hooked on your vlog and your exciting plans.

It really is nice to see you both and even baking too!❤️

I don't know why, but this is one of your most entertaining vlogs. Probably not the 'best', because some of your others have been stunning, but pure pleasure to watch. I always find boater vlogs when there is interaction with friends - other boaters in particular - very watchable. Your mate David's boat was wonderful, although I was getting worried you were never going to get it started! I was impressed at the way you could both handle such a different boat, so skillfully. Great vlog guys and the cheesecake looked cosmic!

That was a cool engine! Nice to watch you two again. Love the chessecake.

Gotta love good, solid, mechanical engine controls that you can _see_ doing their appointed tasks. :)

You two are awesome! And it’s great to see you both. So Vic is the brilliant editor! I think you had said that before (that Vic edits the videos, but I inserted the compliment. Because I love the artistry of your videos!). You guys are connected, based on your intro. I slept in a dresser drawer the first 6 weeks of my life. I don’t believe that they closed the drawers when the baby was in them. It was simply a bed that was high enough by just a few inches to keep the baby from falling out. I don’t know when a baby normally rolls over. My daughter rolled over before she was a week old and my son was a preemie and was almost a year old when he did. Somewhere within the window of those two is when they normally do. Every baby is different and can doesn’t mean they will. Especially if they are comfortable. So it happens when it happens. My father was a strong man like that. Some of the things he could do was amazing. Things they use big machines and hydraulics to do, now, he could lean over and do with one hand. I was surprised to discover that not all men were that strong. My first husband was also very strong but not in a league with my father. My son is also very strong and I spotted him pulling a 6ft high American refrigeration out of the back of the truck and carrying it into the garage. I went running down when I saw him walking into the garage with the fridge but when I got there it was already positioned in the utility room. I was amazed. And appalled, worrying that he had injured his back. He shrugged it off. He’s almost 40 now and he and his back are still strong. I hope all three of you are fantastic! If you are still sleeping all night, don’t waste it! Enjoy each other and I will be happy to see you back when you can.

Great to see you again,! My son also would get hiccups, always in the middle of the night , 10 minutes gentle rocking and I could go back to sleep.
