I think You're missing the POINT here...... Canals aren't 'just' for boaters .... The Funds raised to restore! them came through 'Contributions' and Voluntary-Work from Folk who will 'never' own a boat ..... They are for people as well, who like to walk the tow-paths, looking into the water and 'Its' wildlife, often with little children who can't even SEE the canal while the banks are Soooo overgrown! ... The Nettles and Ticks aren't very welcoming either .... I'm SURE the wildlife you're worrying about will soon 'skip' to the other side of the path and enjoy a fruitful existence 'there' also!

Hi Peter - The POINT is about 2% (£5.6M) of Canal and River Trust income comes from voluntary contributions via the public, so after 12 years of existence CRT have a way to go to increase public awareness. In the last 40 years we have lost 80% of our butterfly population nevermind the impact on birds and Insects. Canal and River Trust are forever blowing their trumpet as to how wonderfully they are environmentally caring for 2500 miles of network so this seems to be a little uncaring on their part. When did we EVER suggest that the canals were for boaters only? We are fully aware of the contributions by volunteers and the necessity for the public to have access to the system, but loss of wild flowers etc. will mean that there is no wildlife for them to look at. Thanks for watching.

No ones saying it's just for boaters it's for everyone, but town, city and boaters dump rubbish all up and down the canals, you have dog walkers allowing thier dogs to deficate and just leave it. Even when they pick it up they fling it into the bushes when no one looking. if you don't believe what I say take a walk in winter and see all the little packages hanging from the trees and bushes. We all have a duty to look after our waterways, those who are caught doing it should have thier licenses revocked. and fine the dog walkers responsible. Nothing worse than enjoying your day on the canals and then stepping in dog muck.

Hi Fran and Rich, what beautiful countryside plus those cottages looked wonderful! I fully agrre with you about wild flowers along the towpath we need to protect our wildlife! Interesting what you were saying about meditation, my partner was into that years ago and I know it can be very beneficial - he certainly found so esp when he had a stressful job! Anyway, thanks for another really interesting video, I'm trying to keep one video behind you so I always have an episode to look forward to! Take care. 🙂 👍
Another really relaxing episode ... ignore any negatives keep on bringing your experiences to life for all us landlubbers ! ( and your opinions too ) and keep up the story telling ,and your adventures as its refreshing and enjoyable

Meditation is a lifelong practice. There are any number of ways to do it. I find that I meditate when I'm doing a monotonous job. Or by sitting still and doing purposeful breathing at the same time. When we control our minds we can be at peace no matter what is going on around us.
Seeing your video reminded us that we wanted to visit Kinver Edge, so off we went today (Tuesday) We should have checked, because it doesn't open until Thursday, DOH! 😄 Still, nice dog walk in the woods. We'll be back.

From one old hippie to two cool “old” hippies. You need to try to get to Crested Butte CO for the wild flowers, Fran! You’d be in absolute heaven. I live about 4 hours from there. We skied there this winter and it was amazing scenery (and skiing) but I have a friend who lives there part time. He calls it “Paradise”. We just took an early summer trip to see the beginnings of the wild flowers and it was mind blowing. I learned more about the flowers we saw than I thought it was possible to know! There is a Festival that happens in July each year to celebrate the wild flowers. The hiking is tough but totally 100% worth it! You guys look so happy these days! Yay!

Too bad no bins, but as you say, the trees are a crop rather than permanent. Think the strimmed path a bit over-eager. Beautiful orchards near Kinver Edge - how cold in winter, but a house is a house. Thanks for showing us your happy trails and saving the little Robin

I spent so many Sundays, as a kid, walking up and down Kinver edge, with my Mom and Dad. That is about half a century ago now.
A campaign of “pack out what you pack in”, is needed. How hard can it be for them take rubbish away, given they obviously took it in?
I meditate and have for many yrs, and it's the best thing I have done in yrs. It is so peaceful when you grasp it. We are all connected and share the same space. We can bring peace to this world, everything is energy, we change it for the better. Thanks you pair, great video. xx

This video (and the music) is even better than the last one:). Such beautiful footage. The litter problem is such a frustrating and dangerous issue for everyone; especially the wildlife. We returned to Tassie on the 11th June, so the weather prepared us for our winter before we left! I thought "No Mow May" was a wonderful idea - and the countryside (even the roads) looked quite beautiful. So sad to see the wild flowers (and everything they attract) cut down like that. As you pointed out, it is not just for boaters that you are concerned. If everyone took an extra bag with them when they go walking, we could make a big difference. Good to see you both looking so well.

How interesting. I've never heard of those cave/rock houses. I can't believe someone as late as the 1960's living in those conditions. I guess I like my creature comforts. I'm imagining cold, damp and spiders. Here in the US, I wouldn't trust them because of earthquakes. Do you have earthquakes in the UK? Don't believe I've heard. I agree Fran. Someone butchered those flowers and landscape. Obviously they had a too wide mower and just chopped their way through. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful video. Take care.

I might have a reason for the carved out spot at 1:31 , The name sounded familiar so I went back through my Culinary history notes. There was a public house that happened to be along the canal route and they served the Boatmen as the area was a bit posh in those days. It "might", I stress might have been a room set aside for the working class to gather and drink. Note the rough bench seating along the perimeter of the room. With tables, the room is the appropriate dimensions for a pub room of the time. Great video as always. Much love from Oregon USA

Yep. A lot of the newly-converted Environmental Warriors tend to be a bit like Evangelicals who've "Found the Lord!" But no doubt they'd be singing a different tune when the blackberries are clawing at their knickers as they try to scrabble through an overgrown canal. That's not to say that their hearts are not in the right place. Cleaning up after today's ever present yobbos shows that!

I don't think we said don't keep the canals passable nor did we say never cut it back but as the Canal and River Trust are claiming to be providing 2500 miles of green corridor for nature they could time their strimming regime a little better and be a little more discerning

Ok people 🙄 stop and think for a moment.... How many miles or kilometers do they have to mow??? If I'm not mistaken it's somewhere in the range of 2,500 - 3,000. You think they're going to do that in a weeks time 😒 You want to help out the flora, then step up and volunteer to the trim brigade

The pair of you are so adorable.... new super fan from Canada...regarding the rubbish... we have a small town conservation area that is along a small town wooded beach ares that has little Flinstone Character signs along the path that say things like follow "this" to find "that" ... go here to find hidden treasure etc etc... sign this board to say you were here... very family friendly but also has signs that say..." You are grown up enough to get yourself here to build a fire on the beach and cook yourself something to eat... We ARE SURE you are old enough to clean up your garbage or rubbish! Do your part and have respect and come back and enjoy a nice space... " something like that. and do you know... the many times I've been there to that spot there is no rubbish to speak of. you can tall that all the people who visit pick up after themselves and others. The only rubbish I have actually found was stuff that washed up on the shore with algae on it. and one time I found a plastic jug that washed up on the shore and as I was bringing it to the toe path I noticed a big dog poo and I scooped it up with the jug and left it on the side of the toe path kind of hidden to pick up on my way out and when I was on my way out of the conservation area to get the poo jug .. someone had already picked it up and discarded it at the entrance near the car park. Long story but those little signs made all the difference in opening the eyes to the people who used the space. ❤
For meditating I watch a candle in my mind and just concentrate on it attempting to block everything else out. I love no mow, I have areas that I don't mow but I do deadhead dandelions before they seed. Take care =-)

I know ther are a small percentage of boaters thatdo it. I find it awaful what these scruffs di.
Nice 1 folks…
I learned many years ago that the only positive thing , (apart from not discarding it), we can do about litter is pick it up. Litter picking in our village is a community thing & has been done for many years ! I was gathering some on many occasions when passing cars just chucked more out their windows , made my blood boil ! Well done Fran !
