I do not have enough words to tell you how overjoyed I am for you. I think that sweet tabby neighbor is a good omen. I hope you have many lovely hours and find the balance in life to allow you to find your happiness in all things.

Thank you
General Election, British Grand Prix, Lorna's new boat. Quite the weekend! 🛥🎆
Lorna, I am so happy you finally have your boat! It was a long, frustrating process for you. Per haps, if he’s very nice, you can let David come aboard for a cruise.

I’ll think about it 😂
Perfect music choice as she was being lifted off the lorry into the water. Absolutely beautiful craft and I am SO happy for you!
I got all watery eyed when Foxglove hit the water at 4 minutes 56 seconds, breathed a deep sigh of relief when she didn't sink, dried up around the 10 minute mark.... what an incredibly hell of a long time you have waited for this moment, but what an absolutely lovely boat you ended up with. Such a feeling of joy to see you in your boat at long last, and it was fitting and expected of the swans to bless the union of you and Foxglove!
So happy you have your boat now, bring on the Adventures
Congratulations on the delivery of your new boat! May you have many (MANY!) joyful years of cruising.
Congratulations Lorna ! Been a long time coming. I hope you'll be blissfully happy on your great little boat. 😊
Very happy that all went much better than I expected! Congrats on this perfect sized custom build! Love the paint job. It doubles as a passive theft protection. There is no sneaking off unseen possible :-)
Congratulations on taking delivery of your boat. It is adorable, and I 'm sure you will adapt to life on her quickly.
How absolutely fabulous, Lorna! She is SO cute! So excited and happy for you and can't wait to follow your adventures. Life is good, enjoy!!!! 😍
Love the candy-floss colours. Great name, too. It matches well.
Congratulations! Enjoy , enjoy, enjoy! Cruise the summer away to your happiest dreams! I am so happy for you. What a blessing!
Congratulations on Foxglove finely landing in 💧. Have many memories to make in your beauutiful cute narrowboat.💚
Oh Lorna Jane, she is so beautiful!!! I’m so very happy for you and looking forward to your new adventures…I love her!!! Love the colors!!!!
Delighted to see your new narrowboat finally launched. Certainly looks very smart and well fitted out. Look forward to hearing your new adventures as you sail Foxglove and begin to experience her to the full. Regards. Paul.
A long time coming but what a beautiful little boat. I'm so happy for you. Bon voyage x
Your boat looks terrific, I'm sure you're over the moon and the wait has all been worth it. Happy cruising.
So happy for you, Lorna! She's gorgeous!
Brought tears to my eyes, I'm so pleased for you.................................she's beautiful if that's the right word for a boat.
What a lovely pink world you’ve chosen for yourself, do hope you thoroughly enjoy your lovely fox glove 🥰
Looks magnificent Lorna Jane, such relief for you. Looks like the yard used the left over pink paint on their truck nuts LOL. Have wonderful adventures.
What a boat! Love it! My mum popped by for a cuppa & I made her sit & watch this with me so I could see it again! 🤣 Enjoy!
What a cute boat you have its going to be fab to have some more vlogs of you back on the water. Those mixed feelings you are having are perfectly normal nothing is really for ever we simply borrow so enjoy her untill that changes if it ever dose 😀 👍
Foxglove is breathtaking! So wonderful she is here

Thank you ❤
Lost for words. I was just going to comment (where is it) in your previous vlog and found its actually delivered. Well about time. Congratulations the paint scheme certainly makes it unmissable. The blue roof goes well with the pink. Happy days are here again.
So delighted that you & Foxglove are, at last, together! Many good voyages ahead❤
How great to see you on the water again. And Lorna - a hot water bottle is so much cheaper and cuddler (?!) than heating up a whole boat - if you're really cold you could always treat yourself to a second one - one for each end. All the best for the next adventure
Finally the day has arrived where you launch your dream adventure tub, after such a long, long overdue delivery of Foxylove. May you have hundreds and thousands of unbelievably wonderful sights, on your days of traveling the great canals and rivers of the UK. This is your long awaited Dream come true. Enjoy to your hearts content. You deserve it. 😘🖖
That is the boat that I want. It is about the same length as my camper van, on the inside.
corner sinks are so cool.. and that's a great song for the launch.
Oh Lorna, I’m so excited for you. This has been A journey, I was afraid was going to end in tragedy. She is beautiful and I’m sure adorable to all that see her in person.
Really glad you made it. Loving the matching kettle 🙂

Well so very chuffed for you, at last, Foxglove is so sweet and charming. May you make many new memories aboard her. Take care. xx
So happy for you Lorna, she was well worth the wait. Happy cruising x
Congrats and blessings from the Land Down Under. This has been a long road for you, but now you can travel some long canals! So pleased for you!
Congratulations!! You are clearly so happy with it. What a pretty little boat!
She's beautiful! At last, at last. I'm looking forward to seeing the two of you get acquainted.
Just finished watching. I was worried at the start of the Video, but it soon got upbeat. So glad for you. This has been so long in the making and I know causing stress. Now is the time to enjoy chilling and making it your own space. So glad to see you smiling
That seems to have been SUCH a long journey, but so glad you've got there in the end. I look forward to seeing you enjoying Foxglove!
So great to see you back on a boat. Congratulations! I can't wait to see what adventures you get up to on her.
Girl, you worked so long and hard for your dream. Relax, take it all in and be at peace. God bless your journey's !
I’m so glad you finally have foxglove, she’s such a lovely compact boat. Eventually the stress will leave and give you time to enjoy all the adventures in foxglove. Happy boating🎉😊

I’m sure you will enjoy your new boat , now it’s time to have a little exploring and relaxation to get used to your new craft. ! Congratulations !….
Delighted for you! What a pretty new boat. Wishing you many happy years' peace, fun, adventures & friendships on the canals again. 🤩
Nice one, enjoy your new boat. Aintree haven't done themselves any good with the slow build. I'm sure it's put people off from using them.
Hooray for you🎉 Yippee You've waited soooo long. Fantastic news. Happiest Cruising to you always ❤😊
IAM OVER THE MOON HAPPY FOR YOU!!SHE IS BEAUTIFUL.!! You did a grat job designing her!Now when are you invting David aboard.... Congratulations Laura!!
Urmahgurd she is fenomenal! I have no clue what to say when a boat is launched, I just wish you many many safe and comfy travels aboard the lovely ship Foxglove!

What a beautiful boat! So glad that it has all worked out 🎉
I'm probably subscribed to too many channels, so when this popped up in my "recommended" I realised I've been unsubscribed (for ages!!) so glad to be back & what a beautiful little boat!
Totally understand all your feelings and concerns! It would certainly sour anyones expectations at this time. I hope it all settles when you have a bit more time. Most unfortunate it had to be this way
It will probably take a few days and night before it will seem real and you'll probably wake up & have to remember its true. So happy for you! what an episode, now a new happy one.
That is so adorable!! Almost need a car roof top tent for a guest bedroom on the roof! Congrats may your little second home float for many years with no issues
really happy for you. nice boat! even looks like the cat likes it too. and nice matching teakettle and drinking glass! Lol
Wow foxglove is fantastic! I hope you have many many happy year's on her. Plus I love the colour. Pink and baby blue is phenomenal. Enjoy every minute of it 💞💞💞
Thank you for sharing this so much. As I have been following you for years it is to nice to see you get this beautiful boat! Congratulations!
Balance has been restored. Lorna back on the bring. Sooo Smöl this boat.
So happy you finally got it,it’s unfortunate you had to ride the emotional roller coaster to get it, now go enjoy it!
Such a pretty little narrowboat! It’s been a long exhausting journey for you and I hope you settle into Foxglove quickly. She is adorable! 🤗❤️
That is such a cute boat. Really happy for you finally getting hold of it.
Congrats on the new boat! I hope it exceeds all your expectations and then some. I look forward to your adventures back on the canals now that you're afloat again!
Congratulations on finally getting your boat hope we see you on the cut.
well done on eventully get your own boat in the waterways... can;t wait to continue watching your vvkogs....
So pleased for you Lorna, may you have many happy adventures with her
I was so sad when you moved off the canals! I felt your frustration with your prior boat and am glad you landed someplace safe and comfy. It’s so exciting to see “Foxglove” launched and being enjoyed. Good for you! She looks perfect.
I am so happy you got back on the water and your travels will continue.
Congratulations on your Lovely new Boat Lorna Jane, I hope you are in for Very Many Happy Adventures on her. Good Luck 😋♥️

I am so happy for you and Foxglove is such a sweet little lady! ❤
Sooo happy for you to get your new boat. It looks great.
Congratulations on getting Foxglove at last. ❤ I know you have waited so long for her to come into your life. Looking forward to watching your adventures together. 😊 x
Lorna I am thrilled you and Foxglove are now afloat, enjoy your time on her and all the adventures you will have exploring the canal network. Don't lose the windlass and keep fit, as you will be using that windlass a lot!
My heart soared to read your title. AT LAST! Of course there is a muddle of feelings. She looks so tiny on the lorry, and sooooh pretty.. I adore how the stern colours wave a little flag.
it was brilliant seeing you so excited have a blessed life xx
Foxglove looks amazing! Also: thank you for posting the videos of the build process: the earlier videos are what encouraged me to start looking at shorter narrowboats and I am very happy with the 24ft9in one I ended up with. Looking forward to your future cruising videos😊
I am so excited for you. Wishing you many years of peaceful cruising ahead.
Congratulations! She's lovely, and the perfect size! Definitely agree that you will find yourself using her a lot more than your old boat, she'll be so much cheaper to run and easier to handle. I like the blue cabin top, not just because it's so pretty, but it looks like it will be much easier on your eyes while cruising on sunny days (I have heard you do occasionally have those there), while still being a pale enough colour to help keep the interior from overheating in the sun.

That’s a very good point about the roof colour. Hadn’t even thought of that. The colour is really growing on me now
At last!! What brilliant news! She looks so cosy. I'm so jealous of the pink paint job too. May you have many happy cruises ahead of you. 😊

What a lovely boat Lorna! You have absolutely got to get David J aboard, on a trip, for his opinion. Well worth the unexpected wait! I am more than jealous!😀
Congratulations! I know it must have seemed like the day would never come, but at last, NB Foxglove has arrived! Happy cruising for many years to come! 💕💞💗
So so happy for you - it's been such a long stressful time. The boat is gorgeous and I am sure will deliver all you have wished for and more. We are just back from 6 weeks in the UK and on the Danube and visiting our daughter in Norway. We stayed our last night by the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union and I wondered how you were going as I hadn't had the opp to check your channel. Congratulations again. Wishing you many happy times ahead 🤗
Very happy for you. Foxglove is a beauty and seems to be well fitted for her size. I bet she has great maneuverability in the water. I want one. Look forward to the many adventures to come.
Thank goodness you finally have that beautiful boat all to yourself!!
I am so happy that Foxglove is home with you, I am really looking forward to seeing your adventures on her xxx
I'm happy for you Lorna. Honestly it awesome to finally see Foxglove finished and sounds great as well. Cannot wait to see future videos with Foxglove. Great video
Congratulations and welcome back to the internet land. Looking forward to seeing your adventures.
