Hi! Just a quick favour! I've started a new Instagram account because the old one got deleted!!!! PLEASE HELP ME TO BUILD MY NEW INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT BY FOLLOWING ME: instagram.com/joolzguidesofficial/ Or @JoolzGuidesOfficial
The reason I love watching Joolz is because thru him I can travel and learn about my homeland...a place I will never be able to visit. I was adopted young and brought to America and now I am unable to travel. Thank you Joolz and Bless you .
Hi Joolz. Just discovered this channel; it's terrific! Walking a narrow boat through the tunnel was known as "legging it." Swap you that one for being "on the wagon."
Lived by canals my entire life and I've seen how much more care the canals are given nowadays compared to how they were when I was a kid. They are looked after by wonderful volunteers and the River Trusts.
At 7:45. 'Coals to Newcastle.' is a whole different story. A Gentleman in America had a ship load of Coal and nowhere to sell it. Some wag suggested he take it to Newcastle in England. He did and when he arrived at Newcastle there was a Coal strike and he managed to off load his cargo at a handsome profit.
Thanks Joolz for a trip into memory lane, I was borne almost 80 years ago in Woodchester Street (not there any more I think), the Paddington basin and the Reagents Canal were my playground, my word how it has changed.
Visited London in late September 2019. Happened upon the canal while exploring around Paddington/Little Italy. Ended up having one of the best afternoons of my life walking the tow path to Camden in fabulous weather. Saw most of these landmarks mentioned but didn’t know their histories/stories until now. So glad I ‘happened upon’ this video - many thanks !!
Joolz, you're a mad man of knowledge! You have entertained me the past few months when I've needed it, keep going and I look forward to one day booking you for a tour and a good ole bevy! Peace bro
Well I know what is going to be on the top of my list next time I am in London......whenever travel is safe.....whenever boarders are open.....whenever *sobs loudly*!!!! Thanks for yet another great video! As a Canadian who loves the UK and London especially, your videos allow me to travel vicariously. Thank you!
One of the best walks is the one where you let the water be your legs. I thought this was one of JoolsGuides' best. And the picture of the grumpy infant Joolz with Santa was high entertainment.
@@monikabuttling-smith5234 Was very excited when you were on screen -- shame Joolz didn't introduce you two to the audience...But then again, I think enough of us spotted you and commented as such. Think it was brilliant that he did invite you both along to the cruise.
Salish Sea Quest Ah, thanks. :-) I did mudlarking film with Joolz a while back, so I got lots of airtime and credits then. I am still surprised though, that anyone recognises us out of our muddy gear!
@@monikabuttling-smith5234 Loved that mudlarking video! And the ones you've done with Nicola as the Ladies Who Lark, have made you famous! Saw your reply to Flo on Instagram -- it would have been fun to have all four of you on the canal boat.
Salish Sea Quest Yes, wouldn’t it! They had to space us out because of Covid, though, so less people allowed in the boat. I’m sure we will get together soon. x
@@whi5tler_1337 Wetherspoon's have saved many fine old buildings, the beer is cheap, the breakfast epic. I would concede that there are much better places to eat lunch.
Joolzy, next time you do a canal video, put Tom Carradine and a baby grand piano on the Go Boat with you. Now that would be a proper knees-up. Great video as always.
I did it a few years ago the other way round, starting from Little Venice and finishing in Camden. Great day! Thanks for the memories and keep up with your amazing videos!!
12:30 AM here so your 8:30 AM, just had to watch one of your videos before ending the day. This was a perfect way to end the day. Looks like you had a great day and as always you pull the viewer in for the adventure. Thanks much.......
I have been waiting for what seems like forever for a new Joolz video to be posted lol. I went back watched tonnes of his old videos even though I had already watched them 3-4 times each lol. It’s an addiction really lol. Thanks for such a unique video this time Joolz. Cheers mate
Lol @ 4:14 I was only ever aware of Spike Milligan´s version of John Masefield´s "Sea Fever" that goes "...to the lonely sea and sky, I left my shoes and socks there, I wonder if they´re dry" =)
Yes, both of them do - Monika and Anna - you can see them on Si-Finds and Nicola White's videos from time to time. Nicola does "ladies that lark" videos.
@@Joolzguides Ahh, thanks Joolz, and for such a lovely day out - charming company, sunshine and bubbles, all afloat. Glad you liked the cake, too! Blueberry and almond... mmmmm ;-) If anyone wants to see what Anna and I get up to in our normal lives, you can check us out on Instagram at @foreshoreseashore and @mudika.thames
That looks like a fun relaxing afternoon, especially with the Joolz commentary. Unfortunately you have to look at the ever-present hooligan graffitti all along the way.
Loved this! I was in London in summer, 2019 and went to Camden market. I discovered the canal there and walked for miles. My favorite sight (being from California) was seeing the little boats go by -- in the rain -- with the passengers all holding umbrellas and having a fine old time. What a wonderful slice of English life, I thought. Never let a little rain get in the way of your fun!
One of my favorite of your tours/videos and worth the wait. In all my visits to London I've never walked or boated on the canals. This will be on the list next visit...whenever the world allows us US citizens back.
I lived in London fro 23 years and don't know London at all. I actually always wanted to explore, what is now home to me. thank you very much for your videos.
JOOLZ, WHERE IS ALL THAT MONEY COMING FROM FOR A LUXURY FOOD BOAT TRIP THAT S DISGUSTING AND OUT OF ORDER WHEN THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF POOR PEOPLE ON UK STREETS AND I LOST MY LOWER LEGS DUE TO BEING AN INDIRECT 2ND WAR CASUALTY, BUT CAN NOT GET PROSTHETICS DUE TO SCUM TORY CUTS, YET LASHINGS OF MONEY CAN BE WASTED LIKE ON THIS VIDEO= ALL ONLY IN THE UK THE MOST CORRUPT COUNTRY IN WEST EURTOPE. !!!.
It's from walking a barge through tunnels coined the phrase, "leg it." And, "toe rag," also comes from barge workers from walking through tunnels as they wrapped their feet in cloths.
@@fins59 Through Standedge Tunnel the bargee would walk his horse over the hills while he paid a person to walk his barge through the tunnel. The barge walker would take 2 or 3 barges in tow . Hence the derogatory terms of leg it and toe rag!
You have a veritable mine of knowledge stored in your little head Joolz !! Probably could fill up 10 or more full sets of Encyclopaedias! I hope they find a way to pickle your brains without damaging them when you depart. In some of your favourite ale! It's amazing! I hope they erect a statue in memory of you. I was born in London, and only know a little thimbleful and have learned more from your videos than I ever dreamed possible! Your memory is truly incredible! You make it all so amusing too!
Thanks, Joolz. Never been on one of the canal boats but have enjoyed walking along the canal. Very relaxing and a wonderful respite from the busy, crowded tourist areas.
In a world of instant availability, it's actually quite nice to wait a few weeks for a joolz guides update. In some respects the anticipation makes it more special.
Joolz actually all the EHV cables along the canal footpaths are no longer energised. A guy I know who has a permanent mooring at Little Venice told me during the Winter when the path got snowed/iced over the heat from the buried cables kept the towpaths clear. The National Grid have built a set of tunnels about 30M deep from Willesden Substation down to Kensal Green (which feeds Crossrail) then on to the St Johns Wood Substation then carries on across London. National Grid have published several videos about this. Also one of the Villas you saw was owned by the Brunei Royal Family internally they are not that great but the Canal Side garden is definitely very nice indeed.
Thank you Joolz ! You're like sunshine into my life. Your work makes me dream about London. I've been there in 1988 the last time... Too long !! (Canada)
Fun and interesting video and, for us mudlarking fans, so nice to see Monika and Anna as well. Joolz introduced me to mudlarking by having an episode about it and I have been hooked ever since. The boat trip looks like great fun and so happy to see the area has improved so much.
Actually, you walked lying on your side. 1 person per side...and then the boat would walk through. An excellent description of which was given in C. S. Forrester's "Hornblower" novels.
Hello, two years ago we walked the little Venice. It was our first trip to London. as we walked we turned off to visit Abbey Road studios and Primrose Park until reaching Camdem. congratulations on your video. Leonardo from Buenos Aires.
Hello Joolz, i am amazad at how deep knowledge of london you have. It is really a pleasure to follow your walks discovering spots that one, an argentinian tourist, in spite of having been to london several times, had never noticed. Moreover, i had never imagined how many interesting sites there are everywhere!. Thank you.for uncovering and sharing them. Cheers, joolz! Paul. Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Glad to see a new episode of Joolz Guides. Wouldn't it be fun to interview some of the modern-day narrowboaters, and do a vlog on past and present life on London's canals? Just a thought.
I think this is your best video yet. Friends picnicking on a boat through the city on a lovely afternoon with a continual "Oh look at that! They used to use that for such and such..." I loved the trip. If I ever come back to London I'll be tempted to go - half the time you'd never now you were in a large metropolitan area. It just so happens the last of your videos I saw was your trip to Pitcairn island. Such a contrast shows how your film making skills have matured. The pace of the film; the shots from different viewpoints; narrative with breaks for music; splicing in historic shots; and your delivery. Wow. The most impressive part is when you say, "coming up you can see the locks" - something I don't think you could see unless you were right on them. Is your memory that good? Do you know all of London that well? Wow.

@@TheNightwatcher123 yes, yes I am… days are getting harder but I can still do some dreaming and best of all, some walking! Thank you for asking.
Hope you are still ok ✌️
Please Joolz, do more jolly days on the canal. This has been a wonderful day .
Omg I grew up here !! Behind crockers pub on Orchardson St . My nan lived in the block overlooking the weeping willow in little Venice.
Hi Joolz. Just discovered this channel; it's terrific! Walking a narrow boat through the tunnel was known as "legging it." Swap you that one for being "on the wagon."

Thanks Joolz for a trip into memory lane, I was borne almost 80 years ago in Woodchester Street (not there any more I think), the Paddington basin and the Reagents Canal were my playground, my word how it has changed.
I managed to get a boat into the Basin back in the 70s, it wasn't easy.
There was some boating organisation who would give you a plaque for doing so.
Great work Joolz, London is amazing
A big thanks to Mr Carradine for the accordion and old-time songs!
Joolz and Canals, two of my favourite things!
Just finished watching, very relaxing and interesting. Thanks for your great content as always, Joolz!

When I was 16 I lived on a houseboat at Ducks Walk, Richmond. That was a very long time ago, brings back memories 👍🏻
I'd be far too tall to live on a boat
Joolz Guides - London History Walks - Travel Films bet you’d hunch over for some of the awesome parties we had though 😂
Hang on......is that Monica and Anna in that boat? You have some very well known friends Joolz! Great video as always x
That looks like something nice to do on a Sunday afternoon.
Having a lovely Sunday afternoon enjoying watching you on the canal trip… Thanks for sharing
This is actually one of my favourite Joolz guides so far, really interesting and I may have a go at this myself, cheers Joolz
My three favorite British things, Joolz, canals and mudlarking. Well done wishing I could join you for a lovely day out.😘👍
Joolzy, you don’t know how much I enjoy each and every lovingly made episode!!!🌹🌹🌹
Recognise your lady guests from mudlarking with Nicola ! 😁
Yep, I recognised them too :-)
Such beautifully distinct voices on both of them.
Joolz, you're a mad man of knowledge! You have entertained me the past few months when I've needed it, keep going and I look forward to one day booking you for a tour and a good ole bevy! Peace bro
Breakfast and a sail down the canals with Joolz. What a lovely way to start a Sunday.

"The Ice Wharf" public house ar Camden lock is one of my favourite Wetherspoon's pubs, always worth a visit!

@@whi5tler_1337 Wetherspoon's have saved many fine old buildings, the beer is cheap, the breakfast epic. I would concede that there are much better places to eat lunch.
You should do a tour of the great pissing spots around London 😆
That looks like an awesome boat ride, with wine and bread to boot.
I feel I must go to London again.
One of, if not, the best tour yet. Just wonderful. Merci from Montréal.
Joolzy, next time you do a canal video, put Tom Carradine and a baby grand piano on the Go Boat with you. Now that would be a proper knees-up. Great video as always.
That would be great, sailing along and singing or stopping and taking requests.
I'd love to do that!
@@Joolzguides I'd look forward to that!!
'Regular ben hur' from the tooth pick chewing JW Pepper (spluttering)! Love the random connections you make Joolz - golden!

Yes, both of them do - Monika and Anna - you can see them on Si-Finds and Nicola White's videos from time to time. Nicola does "ladies that lark" videos.

John Masefield wrote the book The Box of Delights which was one of my fave Christmas programmes as an 80's kid
That looks like a fun relaxing afternoon, especially with the Joolz commentary. Unfortunately you have to look at the ever-present hooligan graffitti all along the way.
temped to bring paint roller and paint...
I was thinking the same thing. How much more attractive the whole area would be without all that mess.
A new addition for my shortlist of Joolz Guides favorites!
Needed this today!!!! Was hoping there would be a new video... Beautiful! Thanks Joolz 🥰

Love the old time songs from the early hundreds.
your a legend great film really cheers my day up.
Amazing as usual Joolz! Your videos always make me miss living in London.

Lived in London 66-97.
Taught in all the rough areas and loved it.
Glad to see the Old Girl opening up again.
During the riots of 2011 I was thinking...reckon I taught some of them.
Thank you for another wonderful peek of London life.😎
One of the best 👌
Such a great episode, brilliantly prepared and scripted, and yet made convincingly 'on the fly' down the canal. Excellent work!
Lovely one of my favourite London walks.
'Jolly boating weather' indeed. Lots to see, splendid passengers - and a well stocked galley !
That boat trip is angelic Joolz, another great video in these troubled times. 😊👍

There are some nice canalboat tours from Camden down to Little Venice...I've done it about 4 times with different friends.
Cup of tea and jools, oh aye.
Eeehh, fellow Horkshire folk, always marvellous to hear, go bless Jules + the fellow northerners
I like the many, many connections to the place’s history.
This man Joolz is TV Gold. It's superb programme making much to the loss of mainstream TV. Well done Joolz

Know this area so well from 70s...a nice day out on the water....
