- I thought I'd drop this video to give you guys an update about why vlogs have quietened down since December. I hope you can all understand.Your messages of support, concern etc they mean so much to me and you have absolutely no idea how much I appreciate it and I'll try to get a few more videos out if I can this month.

There are more important things in life than vlogging and theme parks and family comes right at the top. You do what you need to do and we'll be on the other side waiting for you when you're ready.
That's really kind of you David, thank you
It’s always a pleasure to watch your vlogs Sean but you need to look after your own first. We can wait for the next content when you are ready. Take care mate. BTW I just came back from Disneyworld Florida and Tron lightcycle is my new favourite ride. Mr Groot and his mates just made me feel nauseous 😂
@@paulrobinson291 I’m glad you enjoyed Florida Paul, I hope to have something soon maybe another one or two this month but no guarantees. Happy New Year to you
All the best to you and your family
@theme_parkmad Thank you 🙏
Look mate as I always say family first and no matter how long we will always be here when you have time to upload. I wish you and all your family all the best with whatever is going on and I hope I speak for all of the community/ your second family we are all here for you.
Thank you... means a lot... tough couple of weeks ahead, it's all a waiting game and just hoping for a positive outcome! I'm trying to get at least one video sorted before a certain date but we'll see how it goes. Happy New Year to you
❤ very brave to share, sending healing wishes to you and your family x
@@corefamilyadventures Thank you…
Happy New Year! Sorry to hear the news, hope everything gets better. Family always trumps content. Looking forward to 2025!
@@themepark101 Happy New Year! And it does, just going to be a bit quiet on here for most of the month.. hopefully we can kick 2025’s ass thereafter
Family first mate, sending you and family all the best mate! Take as long as you need going through whatever is going on ❤
I'll try and get one video sorted this month.. try.. but yeah after a certain date, I really aren't sure. Thank you ever so much..
So sorry to hear hope your ok Sean I haven’t haven’t had a great start to the year nether but never give up and hope things get better
I hope yours gets better too!
Love to you & the family Sean. I hope 2025 gets significantly better for all of you. Look after yourself. ❤
Thanks Dave... I hope so too...
Here’s something to brighten up your January, you have just been personally mentioned on Coast Country, an American country music station based in Sandusky, Ohio. Think of all those Cedar Point locals hearing your name on the radio!
Oh wow that's very cool! How did that come about?!
I think they just picked up an old news article saying how you were afraid of heights but made a roller coaster TH-cam channel your job. Was just listening and was shocked to hear your name, they even mentioned your channel!
@@CoasterConnections That's so cool! Always great when the press stuff is picked up, a TV show mentioned it recently in Poland and my subs from Poland shot up haha I just wish I could deliver more consistent content so the views were more steady across the board it's very up and down because I post such a variety but this was so cool to read, thank you for letting me know!
Happy new year Sean, there are more important things than TH-cam and vlogs sometimes, just look after yourself and your family and everyone will still be here for you when you're ready again.
Thank you Matt, hope you had a good Xmas / New Years!
So sorry to hear that i hope who everit is gets better, but a lovely little walk around the countryside
Thank you... I hope so too
Sorry to hear about your bad news, I hope you are doing OK given the circumstances. Love to the family.
Thank you… 🙏
My thoughts and prayers are with you buddy. Anything you need just shout 🙏
Thanks man...
Sending you all the best to you and your family Sean. Take as much time as you need ❤
Thank you... I'll try and get a video out this month but with how slow some folks are replying to emails / calls it's not looking likely but I'll see what I can do!
Sean, from a local Endon vlogger and vale fan keep your chin up. Sadly my vlogs have dropped off myself with a personal health situation (of which I'm hopeful of getting the all clear in a few weeks) and like yourself I'll be editing the mountains of content I have ... been following you a while and you come across as an incredibly genuine guy, of which us Stokies are... hope things your end work out and if you ever need an ear ....
Steve ( from Noah and Us )
Thank you Steve, I hope your health situation gets sorted and hope you had a lovely New Years. Thank you for the comment... just keep going don't we... we're used to the bad times being a Vale fan but we know that good times are just around the corner. All the best!
@LiftHillsandThrills cheers matey, fingers crossed 🤞 really enjoy your content and your refreshing no bs stance with giving honest opinions. You respect us, your audience.
Re Vale I just hope we dodge the historical new year self destruct mode ...
@ Wouldn’t be able to do what I do without people watching. Audience will always be priority and here’s hoping, just need some consistency in line up and playing style now. We’ve missed Garrity that’s for sure and hopefully the transfer window can add a few more support beams to an other wise mildly solid foundation!
All the best to the family Sean! Take time and we'll enjoy your greatest hits :o)
Thank you 🙏 means a lot. I hope to get at least one vlog out this month but the date needs to work out, and I’d be back home the same day, it’s in the hands of the park now. Happy New Year
All the best mate - whatever you're going through takes priority. Those theme park visits will hopefully provide the escapism needed, when the time is right.
A situation we all must face before I can escape and take my mind off it. Really appreciate the comment, Happy New Years to you
@LiftHillsandThrills Happy New Year to you too - hoping things improve for you as soon as possible.
@ fingers crossed 🤞
Happy new year mate! Family is far more important than vlogs and uploads, keep your head up and remain positive! All the best mate 🙌🏼
Thank you Kevin... Happy New Year to you too
All the best to you and the family at this difficult time, above all family comes first so take the time you need and we will all behind you.
Thank you 🙏 means a lot
Thinking of you mate
Thanks man…
Great for you to pop on just to let us know how you are . I know we will all be here ready when you are . All the best

Great video Sean, your health, wellbeing etc always comes first. I 100% respect your reasoning
Thank you.. I'll try and get a video up but yeah.. it's definitely not a priority currently for me but I do want to provide better content in 2025 that's for sure!
@ you’re welcome, that’s all you can do is try, I understand and that’s good Sean
Best wishes mate

Happy New Year Sean. Your heath and your family is the most important thing. Whatever it is, Take your time and look after yourself and If i ever see you at a theme park, theres a pint for you on me!

Take it easy mate. Look after yourself and the family. Sending our love 🫶
Thank you!
Hi, Sean,
I’m sorry to hear that you haven’t had the best start. Keeping you and your family in my thoughts.
I had a difficult start last year as well. Still on the journey and remaining positive.
You’re a genuine and honest guy. With social media, some people just show the positives. Thank you for continuing to be authentic.
Great that you’re focusing on you. Continue to look after yourself.
Thank you Luke, I hope to bring some content soon when things are a little clearer (I hope). I really appreciate your words, means a lot!
I hope whoever isn't very well gets better soon. 🙏
Thank you...
@@LiftHillsandThrills 😊
Sorry to hear this Sean, love your content regardless. My nan passed away 3 days before Christmas day so my 2025 hasn't started well either. Hope things are ok and look forward to your videos in the future 😊
Sorry to hear about your nan Sarah, thank you for commenting
Sorry to hear about your rough start to the new year. Take care of yourself and your family as that comes first. Don’t worry about us…we understand and support you and we’ll still be here when you get back to posting new content. All the best.
Thank you ever so much
Sending love to you and your family.
Thank you Rachael
Wishing all the best to you and your family ❤
Thank you
Happy new year Sean stay strong and hopefully I'll see you at one of the parks enjoying it with friends
I hope so too Josh, Happy New Year to you too
Happy new year pal.i had noticed but thought was maybe due to winter season.sorry to hear your news.past 6 months been not good here either my dear old mum not been well at all.nearly lost her at one point but now she is a bit better ... chin up pal
Happy New Year Tim
Happy new year Sean, if it makes you feel better you aren’t alone with having some family trouble in December and in the new year. Sometimes we have to accept things that happen to people close to us, even if it’s hard to move on. I’ve been struggling recently but we need to look to the future and not dwell on the past. Really hope your situation gets better mate ❤️
Thank you for your kind words, I'm usually a very strong person and I feel even now I'm handling things rather well but every day is different. Happy New Years
Happy new year to you to.
Happy New Year!
Happy new year Shawn. I hope everything gets better in 2025 for you. Can't wait to see more growth than last year this year. Great to see a video from you today
Thank you Matt, just need to get over this hurdle and hope for an otherwise exciting year ahead in regards to the channel. Happy New Year!
Sean, I am so sorry to hear that your family is having a rough time right now. I will keep you all in my thoughts these next months. Much love
Thank you Barbara
Sorry to hear the news Sean Keep up the work and don’t worry about the channel just get your family feeling better and have a great rest of your 2025 ❤
Thank you
I used to spend many a weekend in Bathpool Park when an ex boyfriend lived on the opposite side of where you started! How weird ha... Had one ski lesson in my life at that slope and I crashed face first at the bottom 😀 take care of yourself!
Small world indeed! and I'm not a fan of the slopes that use that really hard netting for the floor... definitely hurts... much prefer real snow! Thanks Erika, Happy New Year to you
Family will always come first mate, Stay strong and take the time you need.
Thank you mate… I’ll try and scrape what I can out but my priorities are elsewhere currently. Happy New Year to you
@LiftHillsandThrills happy New Year to you as well.
Happy new year Sean 🎉 sorry for sad news 🗞️ don't worry about content family is first
Thank you... Happy New Year to you too!
Stay strong Sean - you know that your amazing community will still be here for you.
Oh, and this vlog has already had way more than 100 views 😊
Thank you and yeah... crazy eh... I thought it best to provide an update
Looking forward to your vlogs when you are ready to post them. Life can be tough and we understand. Hope you are ok.
Thank you so much Gemma, I’m going to try and get one sorted before a certain date but no guarantees. Happy New Year!
Sorry to hear you’re not having the best of times at the moment. Quite enjoyed this video. Reckon Lift Hills & Thrills needs a weekly spin off called walks and talks where you get your Chinese erection out and have a natter to us all outdoors 😅
@@Corks-ti4vz I haven’t laughed much recently but ‘Chinese erection’ Definitely got me 🤣 thank you… and funnily enough as I won’t be doing any talking in the old office going forwards it was an idea to get out more and record stuff like it so… maybe… let’s see what this very uncertain and currently bleak future holds, I’m sure there’s brighter times ahead! Happy New Year!
@ Happy New Year dude. All the best, obviously don’t know you personally but keep your chin up and am sure you’ll continue to smash it in future 👍🏼 big fan of the channel
@@Corks-ti4vz I really appreciate that!
Family is more important than vlogging and theme parks. Take as much time as you need and I hope your doing alright
@MrILikeThemeParks-yt I’m taking it day by day, I may be able to fit one vlog in if the park agree to it before I go quiet again but it’s not a priority!
Family first, always ❤️
Always :)
Sending love to you and your family Sean xx
Thank you Sarah
@@LiftHillsandThrills❤
Feel for you Sean. My step Dad passed away yesterday. Past week has been utterly exhausting. Look after yourself. X
I'm so sorry... :(
@LiftHillsandThrills Thanks. Hopefully both our years are on the up from here
@@ScaredyCatRidesRides We can hope!
Big hugs 🫂 Take care 🙂 Nice little walkabout that was x
Always a place that relaxes me / grounds me. Stoke may not have too many nice places to look at but this one will do :)
Hope the rest of the year improves…. Next time get thee self around Wesser Lake…. UTV ex boslem lad down under
I hope so too man, and I'm always down Westport :) UTV
Sending love and best wishes buddy! Alwshs here buddy 🫶🏻
Thank you..
Here for you brother ❤
Thank you man... see you soon
@LiftHillsandThrills very soon 👀👀
@@OneMinutesEnough Yessss
Hi Sean. Just wanted to say I trust that the bad news you had gets sorted in due course. If it's what I think it is then we had the same news a couple of years back. Time and patience is what you need. I won't be seeing you around the parks this year as this year we have decided not to renew our passes. Dedicate your time on yourself and your family, I am sure all of your subscribers will understand.
Thank you. Plenty more important things than content but it makes me happy and I hope I can bring some stuff to the channel soon!
Take Care Dude ! I am always here if you want to talk you know where I am take care and we will see you soon✊ !
Thank you man..
Got a wee bit more than a hundred views bud ;) You focus on the important things (people) and the channel and audience will still be here when you're ready!
Thank you mate...
❤
@@coastermadab ❤️ see you soon
Sorry to hear your bad news, take time to look after yourself and your family, hope 2025 ends on a more positive note for you than it is beginning on.
Thank you Natalie
Your health and your family is more important than this channel :) its good youve kept people in the loop and we all have to respect that and be patient :) hope things get better
Thanks Sean, I hope to bring a few videos here and there this month but no guarantees. After a certain date this month it'll be quiet for a bit. Hoping to kick on in February with content (Fingers crossed)
Hope u r ok take time out sean m8
I will be Gary... I hope! Happy New Year
Really sorry that 2025 has been bad for you so far just remember that there are 23,200 people looking out for you
haha that's a lot! But it's definitely lower, over the years people Subscribe and then forget they ever subbed haha it's a funny old world is TH-cam, it's why many bigger channels only get about 10% of their subs in views. There are exceptions to the rule but I'm a bit overwhelmed with even one person commenting let alone more! Happy New Year!
When you signed about a save space my save space is Alton towers at galactica
Always nice to have a place to go to where you can ground yourself / have a think and escape
@@LiftHillsandThrills you and all the theme park contain cradles are what started me with Alton towers and all the park and if I run into yours I will stay quiet but if you want me to say hi I will #stay well and your family
@Mr_Galactica2008 Of course you should come and say hey, don't be shy! Everyone welcome
Thanks
@ No problem!
I'm no fashion expert but I just wanted to say I've always thought you looked better with a beanie rather than a baseball cap
@@xsm5525 🤣 thank you.. anything to cover up a long overdue haircut and some ever encroaching family genetics 🤣
Thinking of you, Sean. Look after yourself and your loved ones first and foremost. You have a cracking back catalogue for us to revisit in the meantime.
Thanks Rob! Happy New Year to you
Family comes first mate and we are here to chat to if you want a chat you know how to contact me always here to listen, happy new year mate
Happy New Year mate and thank you.. I don't really talk about stuff.. I know I should but I just kind of deal with it and make sure everyone else around me is ok. Always been the same!
@LiftHillsandThrills you do you what ever makes you feel better and how you deal with it, but we are always here for you mate if it gets to much and need to blow off some steam as you know I had a crap October with my dad passing, it's always good to know you have people to fall back on If needed
@ I know mate… and thank you 🙏 truly… I’m always here if you need a chat too, works both ways!
@LiftHillsandThrills cheers mate 🙏🙌
