This is what all the videos should be modeled after. so informative, educational, production value through the roof, just loaded chock full of production value. And I understand your humor, which surprises me, because i usually dont get British humor. This is a great show. TV quality.

7:46: There's an interesting bit of history to the Etruria Forge as well. One if its employees, operating a steam hammer back in the 1860s, was a young teen-aged lad named Edward Smith, who would go on to obtain a mariner's certification, and was eventually employed by the White Star Line, where he was the first and only Captain of the ill-fated RMS TITANIC.

David Thank you for answering my many questions over recent weeks. I am still catching up with some of your previous vlogs. I just watched the 'Brothers in Arms' vlog about the North Oxford restoration. What an excellent vlog that was, the interview with the organising volunteer just captured the spirit of the canal volunteers and what they have achieved over the past 65 years - I do think that these vlogs will be a very important archive material in the future. I also recall the interview with the man canoeing the network for charity, also very interesting I thought. When you interview people in this way they seem to relax and just tell their story, you seem to disappear and they have the space to 'tell', reminds me a little of the listening project on the BBC at times. I recall being on the Errewash recently. We were delayed at the Gallows lock while the volunteers fitted a plaque to the lock gate. We chatted to them while we waited. They were mostly retired engineers, they used a restored historic work boat as their work base that they were extremely proud of, I can only describe them as a totally charming and marvelously eccentric bunch with many fascinating stories to tell. The voices on the canals, whether they be boaters on the network, canal trust staff, volunteers, canoe fund raisers etc, are often very interesting raconteurs, arguably more individual and unique than in any other walk of life. When you do capture these voices I find myself transfixed. Any chance we could hear some more of them within the vlogs? Mike

If I am not mistaken the reason why the locks in Stoke are fairly deep is due to the subsidance issues stoke has. Stoke was subject to large amounts of mining whether it be the coal mines or potteries digging holes in their yards to mine clay for the saggar boxes used in kilns. In fact you can see on the last lock you entre (next to etruia industrial museum) the top of the lock has had to shored over the years to revent the canal from leaking over the sides. The canal next to the origional wedge wood factory for example is now roughly 14 feet above where the last remaining part of the factory used to be.

Not sure if anyone tried the (3:40) "ten point chimney building" (and I am as far from "local" of Stoke as can be), but according google maps, the whole complex of buildings including the chimney, is part of M.E.S. Environmental, wich does recycle waste and produce (electrical) energy out of waste by burning. That would explain the atypical shape of the chimney (it has to be full of exhaust filters and scrubers). Proof: www.mesenvironmental.co.uk/index.php/operations/stoke/

6:03 I like cemeterys for the same reason when I'm out riding my Yammie on the highway. Quiet, peaceful and a wander round the older stones always provides a history lesson about the local town. Most often you'll see the faded family names on the stones repeated as street names that have been there forever. Early settlers and movers and shakers of the times 100+ years ago. Plenty of pictures on the smartphone, of course. We don't have the depth of history here in Canada that you do in England. I enjoyed the family visits to England from Paris for the history, the architecture and my god, the castles...brilliant.

The missing bridge (2:33) was part of a railway line, the Trentham Park Branch. The chimney in Sideway is part of an incinerator, I guess for household waste. At least it's marked as such in the Nicholsen guide #4. Which is exactly the spot where a low hanging branch grabbed my copy and threw it into the T&M. That miscivious plant is clearly visible on your clip. Glad you made it arround :)) For the Etruria Industrial Museum, the second building is the main museum, housing the mill. The first building is a warehouse, originally part of the gauging station, now used as exhibition room for the museum. Your caveat about mooring overnight in Stoke is maybe a bit outdated. We stayed this May for three (seperate) nights in Stoke, twice about ~200m north of Etruria Junction. No problems at all, in fact, it felt way more safe than on some rural stretches, where nights where torn apart by motorbikes roaring along the towpath. If at all, the area arround Hanley park is a less desirable mooring spot due to many idle students during afternoon and evening. Its nice to recall our own trip by watching your vlog.
