I a watching and eating frans recipe blackberry and apple crumble: delicious. Never used oats before but always will now. Thankyou for sharing xx

Hi Fran & Rich ,sorry to here you've all been unwell but glad you are feeling better now🎉

Met you two last year or before at the crick grand union canal , remember I was on my scooter Darrell

Great chilled video, music was great , thanks :)

Lovely video. Thanks

I thought I heard you say "scrumpy" so I went looking to see if you posted a recipe. Had to 'rewind' to discover you had said "scrumping." You can tell where my mind is at! The crumble looks marvellous. It's that time of year again when I will have to figure out how to use all the aronia berries that are almost ready. A crumble would be great, but the problem is always finding something with a strong enough flavour to offset the aronia.

A biscuit, a rub down and bed. You're a lucky man Rich!

Really enjoyed this ramble and what a beautiful area. The food looked so yummy, and I would love to wander around that church. Thank you for sharing 🌺🌺🙏🙏

Another very relaxing video. Wonderful countryside. The crumble looked delicious! Thanks for sharing your idyllic life style.

I both of you theakyou for vlog it beautiful scenery and churh all the best for now😊

Thankyou take care

Thank you for the video. Hope you are both feeling better and had a physician look at your nose Fran.

thank you best wishes and 🙏

Nice clean, shining roof. Always feels good to look at the fruits of your labor and appreciate the finished results. Good job Rich. As usual, really enjoy your choice of music for the videos.

pretty views. I love your videos bless you both.

Wonderful vlog to watch. It was lovely to meet you. Your homemade pear & blackberry crumble looks delicious. Take care x

You are helping me through having Covid! Two days in since a positive test and ,when I'm not falling asleep or sneezing, I'm watching your back catalog. Thank you, it's helping keep me sane!

😊🥰😍

Thank you for that lovely peaceful wander around the countryside 😊

So pleased your well, I'm eating blackberries as well as I walk our dog, yum. We all love a crimble crumble. xx

Ahh love lowsonford and the pub grub...grt episode like all the rest ..know wootenwarwin wel too ..enjoy

This was so relaxing. I loved all of it. The little house on the canal, the lavender at the church, the crumble, the plants on the tow path where you moored, Archie drinking brackish water to keep his immune system strong, Rich enjoying the cleaning of the roof is a way of having some control in a mad world. I can relate. Thank You so much for sharing. Making videos isn't easy but I sure do appreciate it when you do. Enjoy the remaining days of Summer 🛥🌞

Blackberry combined with ripe pear is a perfect balance, like lemon with blueberry. The only thing I do different with my crumble as compared to what you do is I will add from 1/3 to 1/2 oats to one part flour you can do as much as 50-50 split, but I don’t. 1/3 to 1/2 does it for me. Lovely video! Thank you.

Sorry to hear about your bout of Covid. Glad to see you out and about. Lovely locations!

Just watched episode 195 and We are so impressed with the cooking session of the blackberry and peach crumble. I felt like we were at your kitchen counter conversing with you while you were doing the prep. Brought back many memories of our 1 week on the Trent in 2015. Gerry Edmonton canada.

Lovely vlog Guys. What a shame when we see 'statues ' scrapped all over. Things like that are part of our heritage.Stay safe xx

Stunning church!

Lovely, I enjoyed every minute of that episode. You seem to be able to pack much information and goodness into your vlogs. Thanks x

Sorry to hear you had been unwell but good to see you looking so well now. Beautiful cruise. Scenery amazing. Your fruit crumble looked yummy. Thank you for a great video. Take care.

Iv add oats to my crumble sometimes a little ginger (I use stem) adds a nice spicy flavour especially for rhubarb

The bramble gin you made a few years ago was superb (I think I make some for Christmas)

Hi Fran and Rich, sorry to hear you've been unwell sounds like you've had it all going on! Glad you're getting there now! What lovely scenery - thank you for such an enjoyable video! Fran your crumble looked yum real comfort food! Take care both of you.

Love your vlogs. I love to watch Upon Reflection, they are a wonderful couple with a dog called Ernie. They post every Wednesday, if you would like to watch..

Whats the name of your bow design?

I love blackberries, if only i had a bigger freezer

Hi both and thank you for another great video - sorry to hear that you both were unwell but glad to hear that you are on the mend. Question: Do you prefer Crumble with custard, with ice cream , with custard and ice cream or the olde Brummie recipe with Carnation Condensed/Evaporated Milk?

I'm watching the vlog whilst waiting for a huge pan full of blackberry and apples to come to the boil ready for making jelly. Yum!

Another amazing episode. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks for sharing

If you go on the K&A please shout hi when you go past narrowboat serenity I love watching you vlogs and find it soooo relaxing to unwind to and yeah I haven't been well either just had COVID for the 5th time also iv been quite lucky with the dogs they haven't had any fleas and leelo had one tick which was easily removed

Lovely, big fan of the pace of your videos

Hi Both, Glad your on the mend from being so poorly. Great to see the dogs out and about with ears flopping 😁Take CareX🐰x

So sorry you’ve both been poorly. It’s bad enough when one of you is ill but so much worse when it’s both then disastrous when the dogs are sick too. 🤧 I love a sign for a farm shop but what a shame the chickens chose your time to moult. Thank you for taking the time to show such beautiful and historic places.

It must be really difficult being ill on a boat under pressure to keep moving especially both of you ill at the same time. I hope CRT are sympathetic. Flu/covid really saps your energy levels. Hopefully autumn harvest in the bushes will help. You know you are on the mend when you start making blackberry and pear crumble. Looks so lovely along that canal so hope you can enjoy now. 🌻

It’s strange that you generally don’t appear to mix with a lot of people but still get sick quite often! Glad you’re both feeling better tho 😊 maybe need some multivitamins xx

Thanks so very much for the video it makes my day😊

Lovely, simply lovely

Thank you for this lovely video. Fran I imagine falling while on the towpath was caused by your flu recovery or symptoms. Especially if you had Covid. Also your nose is gorgeous at every angle so no worries. I loved this meandering episode. Gentle and calm. Cheers.

Great camera work Rich, thanks as always

Hi Fran and Rich so sorry to hear that you both have been ill glad to see you are both feeling better now. Great video Rich look after yourself see you on the next video ❤
