    I have seen this movie once or twice over the years. It is a bit of dud comedy. Harry H Corbett was being marketed as a leading man / sex symbol at the time. Harry H is a bargeman having second thoughts about getting married. One of the stipulations from his future father in law is that he gives up his life as a bargeman. He enjoys his life as a bargeman and has a girl at every stop along the canal route. It is not that funny.... but has its moments.

    Less of the instrument players, more of the singer. The instruments are too heavy and the pace too plodding. Doesn't leave room for her to extend or shorten a line, or use her incredible ability to almost whisper notes. That's why I liked many of the recordings on What We Did On Our Holidays, the instruments are restrained, not much thumpy drumming and loud guitar.

    When you hear Sandy sing, her voice just takes your breath away. I am still in awe of her incredible vocal range and purest of purest of her voice. There are many great British female folk singers that I listen to but Sandy's voice has always touched me deep inside that I cannot even describe. You know, it's not just great singing but something else that is beyond words.........

      Once heard quiet joys of brotherhood sung live by Sandy. When the song ended there was silence from the audience followed by rapturous applause. The silence spoke volumes to me. Everyone at the venue was so moved there was a reluctance to break the trance Sandy had created. As you say Suzanne....beyond words

    I would love to say it's all for comedic effect but as a modern day "bargee" I have had two similar encounters with would be "Admiral Nelson's" in their little yoghurt pots who don't understand that you can't just stop 17 ton of steel on a halfpenny! Likewise a teenager who thought he would jump in and hitch a ride. If we had not pushed him off with a pole he would have gone straight under the bottom plate and into the prop! But I have one thing in common with Harry Has Corbett's character in the film...I won't go back to bricks and mortar living! No thank you!

      When I was in the army we had an opportunity to take a small yacht out of the British Yacht Club in Germany around Denmark. We were sailing along the Kiel canal with a German navy ship heading towards us but the young lad at the helm wasn't budging. The captain took over and steered us away from disaster and after asked the lad why he didn,t move out of the way. "Steam gives way to sail," the reply came back. Of course he hadn't taken into account that we were in a narrow channel that the ship could not risk manoeuvring to avoid us and we would have ended up under the warship.

      Your story kind of makes me think of my experiences as a foreigner with a passion for English sitcoms. I kept watching these classical sitcoms from the 50s to 90s, honestly thinking England is the same today. When I actually got to London I was all about bowler hats and brollies and was shocked not to see pigeons in Trafalgar Square. Not to mention that I expected all people to speak like John Le Mesurier
