Foxes Afloat Tribute to the BBC News Countdown 🕒
Anyone who knows me well will be familiar with how obsessed I have always been with the BBC News Countdowns. I produced this little tribute to the countdown, Foxy style, back in 2020, just before Dillon passed away.
I've kept it unlisted for almost four years, but decided to let you see it now :)

It's worth pointing out that the aerial clip at 75 seconds is the very last shot of Dillon before he died. You can see his tail wagging like mad! It's taken from next week's vlog. As is the clip of the cows at 8 seconds and the final clip at 0.00. 💜💜💜

Absolutely perfect video! So many memories; Dillon; beautiful cruises; incidents, both hilarious and serious; outtakes! Must watch it again, and again, and….. ❤️❤️
Anytime I hear the countdown I used to say to myself "ok, pay attention because someone much smarter than you is about to tell you something important." But now.... JUST KIDDING. Brilliant as always.
Definitely brought up so many feels, especially seeing Dillon❤🐾Lovely video Colin

Love it, really well put together. So many highlights including lots of Dillon, he looked like he had the best of times with you both on the boat. ♥️♥️ Never forgetting Colin with cassette loo. The quality camera images are joy, think may've binged all of your vlogs now, including a couple of live ones. The laughing bag 🤣😂🤣😂 oh my there's a euphemism for the future.
Lovely to see Dillon again ,bless him RIP.
Love this!! I remember loads of those clips. Superhero Shaun saving the deer's life.....'Captain Nature' We do miss your great narration about the history of your travels Colin, you are a natural at that. I think I'll suggest to the Mrs we watch your boating world from start to finish again in February as we cut out the booze and chocolate. Hope the storm now as I type is not too bad up your way.
A lot of memories there! It was great to see Dillon again, I loved that dog.

New follower and new fan now converted into a lifelong fan. For me, as a Texan, this music IS everything I love about Britain. And y'all bring a bit of the old sod into our lives in a wonderful way with what you're doing! Also: shout-out to the cows! Moo! Now to go binge-watch from the beginning... 'Scuse me, if y'all don't mind...
Love it, so brilliant. I love the way you had things like the bumping of the boat and the swan snapping at the camera in sync with the music brilliantly well edited, stunning piece of work.
Wow- memories. I love your new life for you but your narrowboating adventures literally transported me to a wonderful place when I was at my absolute lowest. I will always thank and appreciate you both for that time.

We need a Foxes at the Croft version now, perfect lil flashback diary 🤗🤗
I remember when Shaun rescued the deer from the canal. Must have been a young one from its size
Maybe I'm a little weird, but I absolutely love that piece of music. There are a few variations of it, but that's one of the best ones. I shall be watching that one a few more times.

Lovely to see a glimpse back from the past. I was recovering from some scary body problem when I discovered you both and my spirits rose straight off. I am still here and some of it was due to you and your EVER so interesting adventures. I love the way your history has developed and it is still growing and blooming in another direction. What a force for good you both are…….sainthood in the post!

So much of interest to follow, so many great inspirational people trying out their personal ways to live and a general feeling of positive action. I am sure I am not the only one to have benefitted. Keeps one young and that’s the answer to a lot of everyday life situations.

Worth watching just to see Dillon, who is being looked after now by my cats, Miss Pickle and Rufus. Colin’s videos are not bad either!
Loved it, thanks very much. Especially for keeping Dillon as we all remember him, happy & tail continuously wagging.
Ah, memories of Dillon. 🥲
I've actually watched it now following my earlier Patreon comment. It's brilliant, as wonderfully and professionally put together like all your work. I particularly like Dillon's appearances and the deer rescue. I hope we will see it in some future vlogs. It's a brilliant happy intro, as well as being therapeutic for you, and a tribute to Dillon. [Loads of Grammarly corrections as I typed this, my spelling is terrible and it's difficult to type properly when your eyes start watering for some unknown reason :-) ]
Wow. Not sure why this wonderful video got me emotional. But it's beautiful.

Oh that takes me back… Sitting on camera in the BBC’s Manchester news studio, all plugged in and listening to that music on a loop whilst waiting to be interviewed from London. And congratulations on syncing your images so well to the stings in the track. 😀
Colin at 0:35 with a mouthful of sweets out side the swizzle factory 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. This is the best countdown than the BBC news one this should definitely be on the live chat while waiting for you guys to come on.
Absolutely brilliant, loved looking back on your narrowboat days, but do enjoy your Croft vlogs now. Keep them going guys ❤
