This is why narrowboaters hate the wind - 207

Living on the UK's canals means you have to endure the British weather, but which conditions are the worst? In our experience, wind causes the most disruption, for many reasons, but in this episode, we're forced to cruise a couple of times during a big named storm. Will we make it to our goal unscathed? Or will mother nature prove too powerful? 🌬️🍃

    In the past, if you opened my fridge, you'd find at least 3 different kinds of BBQ sauce, and 3 or 4 different types of mustard. I used to dip my BBQ chips (crisps) in BBQ sauce, when I was eating them along with my Pepperoni Pizza. It seems like Amy is just fixing something like an Italian Sloppy Joe... 😉

So, I put bbq sauce into my bolognese sauce when I'm cooking it (adds a bit of smokiness and sweetness) but would I put bbq on after - no (sorry Amy 🤷‍♂️). I'm being thrown with the vlog days as I'm also watching Narrow Escapes every day 🫣 - I won't know what's happening when they are showing your episodes 😅☺️

    You two are like Joey from friends 😂 ❤ As for the BBQ sauce? To be fair, I put Hendos in veggie mince or lentils for cottage pie/bolognaise/ chilli and Hendos has some of the same ingredients as BBQ sauce. Having said that, Hendos is a thin liquid that goes in during cooking and it enhances the recipe. I can't imagine putting a thick sauce on top though as all id taste is the sauce? Each to their own. Lovely episode as always ❤

It has no place in a kitchen, a galley, a house or a boat, at least not east of The Pond. (Those west of The Pond have some odd eating habits - gumbo, chittlings, BBQ sauce and so forth.)
