Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Sun 28 Feb We start the day by making cheese and bacon turnovers. We then go for a walk, it is a beautiful day and we spot two small deer in a field next to the towpath.

Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Mon 1 March Glenn was a pallbearer for a funeral today and after we head to the office. Glenn got some new wires for his fluke meter! We dropped off Leos Birthday present and card off, we took a couple of slices of delicious Birthday Cake home. The cake was made by Beth’s friend Lauren. You can find her at Lauren’s Bakes https://www.facebook.com/laurens.bakes0 We had a technological nightmare before the Engine Talk live stream, and I ended up missing the launch of the new vloggl episode.

Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Tues 2 March It is a quiet day at the boat. The highlight of the day is when Glenn goes to get something for dinner from Marks and Spencers, he comes back with some deliciousness, including a Dine-In Meal for £10 https://fave.co/3uNz9Lh After dinner we settled down to watch some TV when we are surprised by a bright light coming towards us – is it someone on the towpath, or is it a boat?

Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Wed 3 March We head over to my mums for lunch, and try a deep-fried mars bar from the Chip Shop – it was delicious. I sign up to do a marathon! I am super excited that I am going to be walking 26 miles on the 19th June, raising money for Medical Detection Dogs. Glenn gets his first order of 2021 and is feeling hopeful things will pick up.

Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Thur 4 March I spend the day at the boat working. Glenn picks up some coffee logs and also chops some firewood. I go out for a walk but it is so slippery on the mud I turn back. I make a delicious Hello Fresh meal of Sausage Skewers and Cheesy Chips! Check out the recipe https://fave.co/3kZ8Ptf

Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Fri 5 March I was excited about looking after the grandchildren but I found out they didn’t need me, so I went to the office with Glenn, stopping for McDonald’s on the way. I check in on my Ancestry DNA and I am delighted to see they are processing my sample. I am so excited to see my results. I persuade Hayley and Chloe to join me on my marathon walk, raising money for Medical Detection Dogs. I cook one of my favourite Hello Fresh dinners, Pork and Apple Burger, check out the recipe https://fave.co/3blcu15

Video Diary | Narrowboat Vlog | Sat 6 March I start my marathon training by setting out on a 4 mile walk. I download a new audiobook, The Incredible Winston Browne, to keep me company on my journey. Check it out here https://fave.co/38epK5E Glenn paints the little shed but he is not sure about the colour. We talk about my excitement for the upcoming marathon and that we will be raising money for Medical Detection Dogs.

Ep 423 Not the Start of the Year I’d Planned

This week wasn’t quite the one I had in mind. It started with a much-needed breath of fresh air on the Cornish coast, but then took a few unexpected turns, forcing a slowdown and a day-at-a-time approach. We eased back into work after the Christmas break, found...

Ep 422 Between Christmas & New Year

Ep 417 Totnes Lights, Charity Shop Treasure & Winter Wanders | Weekly Vlog | 28 Nov 2025
