Ep. 6 K&A: Light at the end of Bruce Tunnel

Richard is feeling a little rough with a summer cold in this episode (oops) so I filmed more and feature more than usual while looking after him as best I can. I've not been at this vlogging/talking to camera malarky as long as Richard has nor do I have his skill and talent so there's a bit of an abrupt end to this last episode and series unfortunately. We hope you enjoy the video and rest assured I won't be singing the channel name again, unless comedically! We will be back to 'normal service' shortly but in the meantime, please accept our apologies for these episodes having taken so long to be released. Much appreciation from us to you, thank you for your patience and for watching!

    Very impressed with The LovelyJulia's driving, tea in one hand steering wheel in the other hilarious! What a lovely thing to do, I think I will investigate! What a beautiful country this is.

    It seems so long ago, probably because it was now! Distant but lovely memories. Next time aboard, we'll have my handsome boys with us but not Mojo! 💜

    Thank you so much, you two, for a wonderful cruise up the canal. It made me quite nostalgic because when I was young as a family we always used to go on canal trips and I loved them. Great steering, Julia, and great photography, Richard! Sorry to hear about the man flu, Richard, but you were lucky to have the Lovely Julia to look after you so well.

    The concern is that our benevolent government have said that they're going to stop their/our £300M funding of the CRT/canal funding/support in 2027. This could leave the canals in dire straights!! The fight is on. All part of reducing our freedoms! Lovely vlog as always 😊

    Just catching up on this holiday of yours on the beautiful K&A. I live a stones throw from Semington. Thank you for featuring Bruce Tunnel, I visited it for the first time last year and the Big Belly Oak in the Savernake Forest. Hope Richard feels better. Oh and I remember the Play Bus....it was on the TV show called Play Days. My favourite stop was the Why Bird 😊
