Awesome. I'd forgotten about 360° vid tech and this is an outstanding reminder of its power. Thanks so much! Cheers from NYC!

I used google maps to explore the area along your trip.

I just watched a few of the 360° videos. I was really bummed out this one just paused when I clicked 😅 At any rate, it was still a pleasure taking the trip 😉

So weird, even pausing the video to leave this comment, the video and my phone 🤳 are still working with this 360° aspect. Really cool stuff 😎😄

I am so glad I found you two. This video was so interesting! This video was like I was on the boat. I can’t wait to see the rest of your videos. Cheers from the USA.

Love the vlog! ❤

Very relaxing! My great Grandmother was from Birmingham! I’d love to visit one day! 🥰

That brings back memories of when I went on it with my car club. The cars basked in the sunshine whilst we took the tour boat through the boat lift and a short distance along the river. 😊

Peaceful.

I find the "big water" absolutely terrifying. 😱

Super ❤

Loving these, our journey starts this year with our swan boat being show at crick 😮😂❤

love the pov.

Hi guys from Australia 🇦🇺👍🇦🇺👍

Awesome experience! Thanks guys💕 Freddie

Thank you😊

Loved this. Brought back memories from years ago when I was just 17yrs of age 😊

Around 10 mins in - is that sound your bow thruster ?

Thank you colin, one of my favorites interests of the canal system, along with the counter balance"tub" canal boat lift👍🤠👍

Still mesmerizing!❤

Awesome, will sit and enjoy this! We did the Cheshire Ring/Four Counties canal in 2019, and really wanted to do this boat lift….. but….. it was closed due to some mechanical issues it was having that month! Shame…

YAY!!!!

excellent! 👍😀

That's a physical representation of depression. A tunnel that seems to close in on all sides, with a pinpoint of ligjt that never seems to be getting any nearer - but it always does in the end.

Colin/Shaun, how is the tunnel controlled? i.e. is it wide enough for 2 boats to pass or is there a timeslot type system for each direction? or do you have a token like trains on a single bi-directional line? This is so relaxing to watch BTW 🙂

I just came across this channel. I watched the Harecastle Tunnel video and subscribed. I am subscribed to your Foxes Afloat. It’s a beautiful sunny day here in Mississippi and this channel works for me. Great for having my afternoon wine! Thank you 🙏

Great video of your past history boy's 😅 really enjoyed it🥰

i also noted and started to wonder why and what the numbers on the right hand side were for as they look like years in 25yr segments?

why is this tunnel misty in some places, and where does it come from as there are no air vents near by?

About halfway through I muted KZfaq and played "Brown Sugar" loud through my head phones. I could visualise going through the tunnel with 1000W speakers blaring. Would that be a criminal offence? 😁

When you both went through Harecastle tunnel was your lucky tunnel underpants still in one pieces Colin?

I can hear you and Shaun talking in the back ground Colin 🤣🤣

AND LET THERE BE LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohoo

Now I can say I saw the light at the end of the tunnel! 😊

Super Bowl national anthem

Lovely video. Just to be pedantic, did you livestream this? If not, then it's not "realtime", it's a recording.

Yes, these are recordings to my liking! These canal landscapes are enchantingly beautiful, amazing that industrialization of all things has led to something so idyllic. Unfortunately, I only discovered this KZfaq channel today, but from now on I will be going virtual narrowboat regularly!

This is a wonderful idea and I enjoy just putting this on in the background and letting it play while I'm working around the house. Sometimes, however, I wonder where you are and what we are seeing at a particular moment, especially at landmarks and other scenic locations. May I offer a suggestion? If you enter your own Closed Caption subtitles for the videos that you narrate, then enter the location and any features into the captions on these videos so a viewer can turn them on to see where you are and what they are seeing, or they can leave them turned off to just enjoy the view!

So calming as I listen to this as I make my mum and dad anniversary card.

Cool…eerie

Wasn't this a different channel just a few months ago? It's great to see you boys here. I can't get enough of your channel.

And breath, relax and let the world melt away ❤️❤️

nice, thank you for the ride

Love the bridges. Loved the sounds of silence. Thank you.

Delightful, thank you!!! A little appetiser before our holiday next week!

Thankyou. Lovely sounds and visuals. 👍

Wow just Wow

Just listening to this, whilst painting ... bliss :) Thank you!

That was us yesterday!
