Great video .i know the whole length of this canal i grew up living by the watch house cruising club at stretford . Worked at the animal sanctuary just under the m60 further down at sale and walk dogs around lymn on the towpaths i even helped to re lay the towpaths around Timperley!!

Searched for the music you used having no luck with it can u help

The Anderton Lift to give its proper name is having considerabe work on it. Iremrmber it back in the 1980s and 90s when yhere was a campaign to save it. I think youtube has an srticle when Johnnie Morris of Animal Magic fame went up the lift. Worth seeing to see it then and now.

Have been told the river used to run where Blackpool tower now stands..how was this possible please. ❤😊

You must have gone to westmoreland on a Wednesday or Friday for lunch (i work there now as a server, lol)

You needed to moor in Skipton before the basin and between the two bridges. We were pinned by the wind in exactly the same place but going in the opposite direction.

Yuck what a mess 🤢🤮. It's very rare to actually see the CRT out on the canal in East Lancashire, so it's no wonder the canal gets in such a state. It even takes forever for any leaks to be repaired. I guess it's all due to lack of funds or manpower or both. The East Lancs section of the canal though has been dirty and disgusting for as long as I can remember.....and I'm now 70! You only have to look on the streets etc, to see that many parts of England have a real problem with litter louts, and the canal is another receptacle in which to dump rubbish. It's a wonder that there is any wildlife on or in the canal at all.

Hello ! Hope you both are doing ok..haven't seen you on lately...you are one of our favorite youtubers...Hope to see you soon!! ❤️

I used to volunteer for the CRT in Burnley. We spent one Sunday a month clearing rubbish from the canal side, cleaning pathways, steps, removing Hymalayan Balsam, etc. We were out in all weathers, unless it was deemed unsafe. I was hoping to get to do some more interesting jobs within the remit of CRT, but that apparently wasn't offered to volunteers. We occasionally had a service boat to get the more challenging items out of the canal. It was very disheartening to go back to an area we had cleared, to find it looked the same as before. Piles of dirty nappies, drug paraphernalia, clothes, trolleys, endless empty beer cans. Sadly, it's not just Burnley that has this problem. People just see it as a way of disposing of unwanted stuff. Out of site, out of mind etc. Houses and businesses alongside the canals just throw unwanted crap over their fence, instead of disposing of it properly. Yes, the tourist areas are focused on, but the outskirts are left. It's an asset that has been neglected, like all other assets, libraries, swimming pools, sports centres, playgrounds etc. No longer seen as important with budget cuts etc. Sad, but I think it's only going to get worse. We may end up with some parts of the canal system that become un navigable because of the lack of maintenance.

You need to get your sound sorted out - apart from that I enjoyed it.

I spent all my childhood in Barrowford until the late 70s, and family history traces back over many generations living there. Barrowford actually consists of 3 parts, Higherford, Barrowford, and Lowerford. You only showed a smidgen in your video.....some of the better parts 😂. Population is forever increasing and is now well over 6K and probably nearer to 7K. The derilict looking building above SS Peter & Paul Church, was originally a corn mill. It's been an eyesore for about 50 years! That black box that you were trying to peer into, will be the post box for whoever now lives at the house which once was part of the tennis club. It's a public footpath all the way along the riverside, but the resident of the former tennis club house, used to try and stop people from walking past and at one point caused a lot of bother with walkers.....no idea if it's still the same person that lives there, but if you're ever in the area again, it is a lovely walk along there all the way to Roughlee.

Have been looking to see if you were back, so glad i checked in today. What a comeback vlog too. just loved the little tank engine sound. Amazing port too. Hope your back again soon.

Money the oxygen of life. Well done for completing your task. You have been missed on the channel. Hope you're both well. Safe journey travels when you get up and cruising again. Best wishes from Napton on the Hill south Oxford canal.

Good to see the two of you. I hope you are doing well.

That seems to happen a lot they get hung up on a ledge

Hello Sue and Elliott! So glad to see you back. We have missed following your adventures. The video was fascinating. We were sitting here saying “open the bridge”, and it did! So cool. Looking good!

Another very interesting video. Thanks for the history lesson. You looked liked a pair of kids in the control centre! Your fun and enjoyment is infectious. Cheers.

Hi Elliott and Sue Command control training engineers, eh... You really were called in at the right time 2 trains and two marine boats yey. I hear on occasions some calls coming in on VHS 16 when out on the sea kayaking. Anyway cornwall holiday done and managed 5 youtube video not sure if you've seen them but some fab news one vide got over 1.6k views so yes massive smile on my face I bet you have had it in the early days. I'm now in Kefalonia not sure if I will be on a kayak here but it's possible. Might do a video from top of mount Anos ? I'm chuffed you are back with a great video I love the radio side of things so much so I'm now pressing on with my amateur radio stuff. See how it goes... Have fun stay safe Kev the brinklow kayaker

Hi again from Victoria, Canada. Nice to see you back. I really enjoyed this one. Hope to see you again soon!

So glad you are both back and busy and not just decided to stop UA-cam. Love your vlogs and the history.

Grand to see you both very interesting vlog tc now the oldies 👍👍🤗🤗

Hello from Kansas! Glad to see you guys out and about! That was a cool video, and I was completely shocked when I heard the chugging of a steam locomotive! I was like "what the heck", then it pulled into view!!! You just can't beat a steam locomotive! The history of the Preston Docklands is pretty cool. I wonder what they were doing with submarines there. Refueling and replenishing I'd assume. Thanks! Richard

So glad to see both of you again. Thanks for a very enjoyable and informative vlog.

Well done interesting place.

Missed your videos. Welcome back.

Glad your back! Who did you have to bribe to get into that place? ;^)

So glad to see you both back on, excellstuff. Looks like you have a bit of nice weather there, roasting here.

Wellcome Back Elliot and Sue that was interesting and nice that you got to have a Shoofti at the Control Centre , It make a lot of difference when you can see the workings of the business end of things Cheers

Lovely to see you two again! Wow, what a privilege to go into the control centre. And to open a bridge!

Absolutely loved that. So pleased to see you on here again and that you are both well. Looking forward to the next one. Keep safe and well.

What's happened to your channels. Have you given up posting ???

17:58 .The Oder coming of that stagnant canal waterway must have been woeful. Thankfully i don't have *Smellavision* 🇮🇪🇪🇺

Hi Elliot it's a VHF radio not a VHT radio, I would recommend a good waterproof Icom marine VHF radio.

Now you know why Burnley is considered to have the lowest average IQ in the UK...including in councillors!

Where did you go?

Missed you both

We are wondering if you are both ok or just still busy working any way just tc thinking of you the oldies 🤗🤗👍👍

Nice video except that Tunnel Exit, poor you you must have been Stressed not being able to move and all on your own as well with no one else around. Just one thing I did find it a bit difficult to make out your words at times because the volume was a little low owing to the engine. But I did enjoy it 😋

This is what doesn't happen when we pay our fishing licence's, the syndicate who control a particular stretch of water doesnt bother to keep it clean! Also the people who manage the waterways are a disgrace!

betwixt hill and dale, a golden river flows and ebbs on the spring winds. - behold - the common brook shrew and the vole dance with the devil

Ring up Inland Waterways and tell them about the problems, maybe [or not] they will send some workers out to clean it up.
