In pottery, as in life, the secret is...lubrication. Wet hands are your friend. Love your vlog, stay happy!

You are an adorable pair of clowns. Love Shaun’s expressions and sound effects ... krr-dunck. Especially loved the ice breaking.

Ohhhh the shots of all that ice breaking was so satisfying!

Those ice-breaker shots are brilliant! :)

Great video on the side of the boat breaking the ice excellent

"Come on Maud cough it up" - bloomin' priceless !!

Interesting pottery sequence. It's "Ghost" all over again!

Thanks guys watch this with a huge smile on my face from beginning to end.

The potters wheel scene made me laugh. 😂😂

hiya,Firstly i respect you so much for talking openly about Mental Health !!!! I myself {Chris ."Trip Boat Skipper"} suffered with depression.I found the Freedom & My Dedication & LOVE for boating really helped me thru some dark times.Keep Up The GREAT VLOGS.SEE YOU SOON I HOPE IN BRUM.Take care.

Shauns' pot is adorable! And just so ya know, your videos will always be good, because your personalities, individually and as a couple are great.

Greetings from Florida! I discovered you two through Amazon about a month ago and have been spending all my spare time watching from the beginning. I AM LOVING IT! It's relaxing. It's honest. It's adventurous. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with such warmth, humor and heart. I'm a little over halfway through and can't wait to learn more of your journey. Cheers!

Never go straight, always go forward.. Cheers!

It was mesmerizing looking at the boat breaking through the thin ice.

You both are beautiful souls! Keep on keepin on! Love to both 😍😍✨✨

You are a wonderful double act , you two . A real treat apart from the bit where I inhaled my tea when Shaun was on the potters wheel ! Hysterical. Love the history stories too and the beautiful photography. Thank you .

Looks stunning guys, just the kind of weather I really miss down here. Currently in the high 20s in Auckland and not remotely Christmassy.

You guys are so much fun...love watching your vlogs :-)

I like your historical format. Plus you’re both pretty funny. Keep on Keep’n on!

Love the frosty scenes and the banter!! Take care

The Wardle Canal is the shortest canal in the UK at 154 feet (47 m), this connects the Trent and Mersey Canal to the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal. The Wardle Canal also has one lock on it. It was built in 1829 so that the navigation authority of the Trent and Mersey Canal could maintain control over the junction. (This piece is thanks to Wikipedia) The 'wich' refers to a salt town. Hence in that area you have Middlewich, Nantwich & Northwich. All of which are in the salt mining area. I also liked the filming of the ice breaking at canal level.

We love your sense of humor great videos 😂😄

I was looking forward to watching you pushing the new wood, watching you navigating the locks isn't boring for us land dwellers.

Nice one lads looks bloody cold Jamie’s dog Wordsworth I fecking loved that show when I was a kid psychedelic torch brilliant ❄️✌️

Your photography is amazing. Lighting, composition and exposure are all spot on. As are your editing techniques. Well done.

So happy that you two are continuing to cruise during the winter when a few of the other boattubers moor up for the winter. You two seem to be decidedly cheerful living on your boat this winter. I actually love being outside in the the colder months, when it's not pouring down rain. Can't wait to see the rest of your frosty adventures! Cheers! My votes for "ice" or winter songs: Fire and Ice - Pat Benatar Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day - Jethro Tull The Ice is Getting Thinner - Death Cab for Cutie Tenth Avenue Freeze Out - Bruce Springsteen (THE GREATES!T!!) Hazy Shade of Winter - Simon and Garfunkel

Every time i watch you two im sitting in my chair with a huge smile on my face. You two are brilliant keep it going thankyou for makeing my day if anyone needs cheering up all they need to do is watch your vlogg god bless

You two always brighten my day, fantastic film footage, thank you .

Fantastic Blog , You two so make my day , you both should be on the tv

I learn so much by watching you guys. Thx👍👍👍👍

I thought Shaun's pot was a masterpiece! another great video guys!

Great video chaps. A nice change to our 40 degree days, bushfires and constant smoke here downunder.

Been binge watching your vlogs .. I’ve never commented on these vlogs before but just wanted to say how great these vlogs are (do I get a prize for saying vlog 3 times) how great are you two together, you make everything seem so much fun .. and Colin so brave to talk about your mental health so openly, I can only guess how hard it must be to be to talk about it .. anyway just wanted to say a big thank you for letting me escape into your world for short periods of times .. THANK YOU !

Life's back to normal again and I can start catching up to this wonderful channel. Our daughter saw two episodes and she's convinced that we live in the wrong country. Cheerss guys!

As always, so wonderful to watch you two (and Dillon!) This has been a heartbreaking week, but tonight I’m smiling. Thank you. x

Nice to see your boat in Nantwich good pubs and clubs in town love to meet up with you both one day when your back in Nantwich we will have our boat in March hopefully see you soon Phil and Pauline

Cracking vlog...I’ll get me coat....

Hi guys. There used to be a little black and white cat that used to sit behind the picket fencing at Lock 69. That was a few years ago

Love you two always put a smile on my face 😊

I love frosty/cold days when there is somewhere warm and cosy to get back to and i bet Silver Fox is all of that! I can just imagine you three in your 'mobile' home. Always a good choice of music too...suits the subject.

Ooh, ooh! Just thought of one! Icy a bad moon rising (Creedence Clearwater Revival)

Hi boys top video yet again your at the lock I stopped at for the night the pub is not to bad for food and the chip shop is ok and the road is very quiet at night. You never no if you go straight on you may see my narrow boat if the new owners have not pick it by then. I do so miss being on the water. Just didn’t get to use it for a year coming up to 2 years now. Have fun lads may see you out and about one day.

That...I must say....was the most beautiful bird captured with the sunset I've seen in quite a long time! 🐓🌄

I prefer warm weather. The Pottery Barn looks like fun. Be safe out there. See you next week.

Ice? That's not ice. Come to Montreal next month and I will show you ice. b.t.w. Still enjoying your vlogs.

“I Only Have Ice For You”

I loved this vlog, it had everything, humour, scenery, interesting info and Silver Fox looked beautiful gliding through the ice and frost, Anita x

Sooooooooooooooo funny this one ;) Shaun was quite entertaining at the potter's wheel and who wouldn't want to see him in a pink apron . . . or a Christmas onesie :O Stay warm guy's and thanks for making my Friday morning a delight!

The tripod is knackered, can I say knackered? No The Tripod is shafted! LMAO!!!

During the winter months you'll have to rename your boat the Icy Fox. :)

I drove a truck for thirty five years and like you L know where I would rather be,and it's not in a truck. L couldn't help notice the similarity between Sean and Demi Moore. Thanks for another great vlog

Hi guys nice vlog loved silver fox looked great with the snowy ice on top and all the swans 🦢 looked very cold take care and warm looking forward to seeing your next vlog 😀👍👍🥶

I could watch you guys breaking through the ice all day.

“Smell ice can ya?”........ well at least you didn’t end up like the titanic although you did miss the opportunity to recreate the iconic scene on the bow of that boat with you and Shaun as Leo and Kate. Now that would have been special 😂 Loved the winter scenery. You guys must have decent thermals. Hope you pick the Leigh branch. If you do let me know when and I’ll come and give you a wave. If not have a great Xmas and a happy new year

I love that you blokes keep moving in the winter. I love winter (though it is a bit milder here in Southern Australia). Your photographic skills continue to impress.

Your a couple of bloody heroes cruising in that cold, but someone's gota do it!! Please please go onto the Middlewich branch then take a right onto the Shropy and on to Chester you will not regret it, Wonderful three lock chair into central Chester, you can drop down on to the River Dee or cruise to Ellesmere port.Love the videos and chat.

Great video guys! 1 - Thin Ice (1979) by Pink Floyd from double album: The Wall. 2 - Skating Away on the Thin Ice of the New Day (1974) by Jethro Tull from Warchild CD. 3 - Icehouse (1980) by Icehouse. 4 - Ice in the Sun (1968) by Status Quo Whenever she comes I melt away Like ice in the sun I melt away 5 - Ice Nine (1978) by Saga 6 - Rivers of Ice (1994) by Simple Minds 7 - Icicles (1973) by Badfinger

i was watching this and thinking about a guy i used to work with who retired and got a boat (iv not seen him for years he might even be dead by now) , and bugger me you went past his boat shackleton no2 ice breaker lol.

Love your videos so much. Its not just that they are entertaining but they are also informative I love all the bits of info you give us. Most of all though is the filming it is so professional! The BBC could not do better. Your amazing especially as you do it all yourselves. Thank you so much!

Your patience is super natural Shaun. I never stop and check to see how much longer your video has to play. Fastest 22.07 on KZfaq. Thanks for all your work.

I think I would be parking somewhere near a pub and not leaving until it's warm again, looks very cold

I do love me some fish and chips, however the nearest good place here in Texas is about 25 miles away. (Run buy long time Liverpool imports), and that sounds like lunch now.

This is paradise. I would give almost anything to be able to live like this.

One of my favourite episodes :) Love the winter atmosphere

Suddenly Icy.....KT Tunstall.

Cracking 👍

Thanks guy's another great Vlog . I think I made the same thing on the potter's wheel lol .loved the icebreaker shots . Take care ! 🚣🇨🇦 Craig

Great Vlog - loved the variety and the camera work! Cold weather must "float your boat" ... such enthusiasm. All smiles after watching this one.

Great vlog as always fellas, it’s ffffffffffffffreeeeeeezing 🥶🥶🥶 Will you be meeting up with the other vlogers ? It’s there stretch of the cut they float on constantly! Good luck and best wishes always you two. It’s cccccccold out there 🥶🥶🥶

Watching the potting section I thought of that film Ghost don't know why , Shaun looks nothing like Demi Moore . Bum bum . Safe skating sorry cruising lads .

Great vlog. Thing of beauty Shaun maybe not that pot good sport those. Keep warm lovely Boys xx

You two men put a smile on my lips, and a laugh in my heart.

The Llangollen canal doesn’t freeze up because of the fast water flow

MADE IT! ANOTHER WEEK OVER AND DEEPER IN DEBT.....BUT IT'S....."FOXES FRIDAY" YIPPEE!!!

5:35 is like a post card!! Beautiful

Hi guys I absolutely love your videos. It's nice to see parts of the canal that I grew up round (Wakefield/Stanley ferry and Castleford) in older videos. what you do looks a lot of fun. Much respect, keep it up.

You two do great videos. I thoroughly enjoy your researched videos and the how-do-things-work videos. I’m curious how keeping a pet, as in dog, on a narrow boat works. Dylan is adorable and has the cutest face. Could you do a video about how he adapted to the boat, the adaptations you made for him on the boat, has he ever just jumped into a canal, ..... Thank you! Sitting here is Beavercreek OH where it was -11.11 degrees Celsius this morning (12 degrees Fahrenheit)

Hi you two I always thought Shaun would have been a leather apron man not a flimsy plastic one. Did the pony have Colin’s coat on? I do like a pink shirt. I hope you keep warm this winter, is it cold where you are now, it’s not to cold here in Essex but a frosty morning does have a lovely look to it.

You do find some wonderful landscapes and photo opportunities! I do hope you come up to the Bridgewater and through Leigh, i'd love to meet you and maybe there would be cake involved, who knows 😁 plank lane is calling! also, seeing Silverfox breaking through the ice like that was fantastic! i can just imagine walking along a canal on a foggy frosty morning hearing a little chug-chug-chug with a silver and black hull appearing like a ghost through the fog! I love winter haha. Hope you are all doing well and keeping warm! 😊

Bit of a frosty morning! Sitting here all warm and cozy, it all looks lovely.

Your guitarist who plays in the background. How does he do that so well in the cold? His fingers must get numb.

My Mrs says both knackered and bloody are swear words. Which is a right load of bollocks.

I love the little blasts from the pasts like Jamie and his magic torch. It brings back so many memories ❤️

Brilliant content as always. Keep up the good work chaps.

Ice Cream Man - Van Halen Black Ice - AC/DC Dry Ice - Green Day Trapped Under Ice - Metallica

"Trying to get me mouth warmed up"... should have kissed him after he said that :)

You two are a breath of fresh air to narrow boating... Great vids.

Read photography! As usual! I am envious of your vision. If I tried that I would club it.

Another billiant Cold Frosty day Keep Warm Guys. By the way guys when you see a bad review Please press the face of that person and see if the are local (if it says the Local Guide it doesn't mean their local to where you are only their area. I am local to Dawlish). So please check others to get a proper picture. Sorry for being long there. But visitors can do bad reviews ever where they go. ICE BREAKER WOW. OMG.😃😃😃😃

Should have done the scene from Ghost at the pottery place, missed opertunity! 😂😂 Have a great week and take care.

Your photography is superb!

You are still making nostalgia for my wife and I. We took a motorcycle ride to the Romping Donkey and went too fast over the canal bridge and took off. Thankfully we landed properly. Phew. Happy days. Enjoyed this week's vblog. Thank you.

Ice Machine: Depeche Mode.

“Donkey’s years”? Go left... stay warm

Bilbo’s pony myrtle!

Brilliant as always. Makes my Fridays.

The icebreaking maketh me smile and giggle. Thanks, foxes.

You two lovelies are such a tonic🧸🤗

Songs request - how about I only have ice for you, or Can't take my ice off of you, or Spanish ice, of For your ice only I think I'd better stop there!!! All the best.
