Sounds like you need to vacuum out the broken glass in the track. Like the new colour . Well done .

That window replacement was the most nerve wracking thing I've watched. And I watched No Time To Diie right before watching you!!!

[keithpither]

Very enjoyable to watch you both, happy travels.

Absolutely loved this vlog. Myles’s face when Marina telling him about the satin paint….priceless!! Glad you got the window out and new one in. I was cringing when you did it as I thought any minute now there’s going to be a blood bath.
Also made me laugh with the bag on the sander then the boat full of dust. Really great to watch. Love watching you both ❤️.

I thought it would be too cold to paint! Great team work! I love Julie & Mark you two brought the best out of them.

Just booked a narrow boat holiday because I’m officially obsessed with your channel. I nearly put that down as prior experience! It’s probably given me a dangerous false sense of security but we can’t wait 😆

All about painting. I watched twice! Great video.

[jimsoltner]

You guys are the best! Boat is looking good. Safe journeys folks.

Myles, / Marina, sounds like the bottom channel that you fixed your window in is full of grit or Glass, needs cleaning out, also tip for when your Painting, Cut a couple of big Onions in half and place them around the room your painting, it will draw the fumes into the Onion

A lovely vlog as usual, you did a fantastic job, Alba is looking great. I love that you included the painting lesson in the vlog. X

Nice to see you again enjoying life on the canal, winter can look so lovely with the frost then so dreary where everywhere looks so dirty.

[brenda]

Have followed you two from the beginning. Enjoy what you do no matter what or where. Loving you both as you navigate this wonderful lifestyle.

Hi guys loved the video today I'm glad you left the lover's tiff in the video it was priceless had to watch that bit 4 times, myles did you get the look of the Russian mafia Lol 😂😂 I love you guys to bits all the best to both of you 😊 👍💜

[patcronin]

You guys are great, like a breath of fresh air.👍

[edmundsmith]

Now i have seen you guys painting mushrooms twice cos i follow both of your vlogs mushrooms are quicker to paint than boats but you all did great Good vlog you two looking forword to your next Ed 40 S of Vegas

[jillosler]

You are both doing a great job - so please don't be too dispirited by those who will always find something to complain about! 👏👏 It's amazing how you ever got a crack in your window judging by how hard it was to deliberately break it. Job done!

[simon-nb-Betsyray]

Alba is going to look fantastic when u have finished her. l agree satin or silk is the way to go so easy to wipe off any marks as wiping matt brings the paint off. Great vlog as usual guys. Xx💜

[gabrielecox]

Thank you for sharing. It was lovely to see blue sky, I had forgotten what it looks like. Horrible weather over here for weeks .... Hope your tree takes root. Take care and stay safe ❤️

[jacquelinetedder]

Hi Guys.. Great video as always.. we soooo love your channel. We are taking our NB on the K and A in spring.. Did you plant the xmas tree on the K and A (we think so) if so where exactly and we'll pay homage as we pass and take a pic. We plant ours too. We are from Leeds also Myles (Boston Spa) and our xmas trees are in various places around the village!
Take care both of you and.... 'keep em coming'!! x
