I've just noticed you are around the same number as me for viewers and subscription numbers. Are you earning any money for it?, just wondering whether it is worth trying to get monetised?.
Wandering William,thanks for walking through our town, im 66 now, born and bred,alot of changes over the last years, the inside market and Weaver Square is (over)due a refurb from its 70's awful building😖 thankfully we retain alot of original structures, lovely old Salt town with alot of History and boasting 2 Rivers. (Weaver and Dane) Council rates have driven traders out..not good. The Penny Black was the original old Post Office hence its name and The Plaza was an old cinema, i went as a kid,Saturday matinee for 6d..( its haunted too)👻. (Take a walk around Marbury and its haunted history) and the fabulous Anderton Boat Lift..what a piece of engineering that is
I recently went to Whitchurch just south of Cheshire in Shropshire and I liked how there were still some independant shops and pubs. Some nice bakeries and a grand church at the top of the highstreet hill with very impressive stainglass windows, considering that it was not a cathedral. I ended up in a nice Joules pub just off the highstreet.
One thing I love about your vlogs is how you really appreciate the free things in life. Beautiful old buildings, spectacular views and nature. Not a common trait these days my friend as I’m sure you know. I’m off to Margate tomorrow. My friend is racing so going for moral support. Was going to go sea swimming but unfortunately strong winds forecast. It’s full of illegals down there unfortunately but lots of Victorian architecture still remains. For now! Really happy to see your subs growing mate. You do work hard so it’s well deserved x
I'd never noticed that to be fair, good point. What was your friend racing in?, swimming?. Poor old Kent has been hammered with all that shite. The last week it's doubled in size of people watching, not bad as was going to knock it on the head a few weeks ago!
11:41 another Green Dragon pub like in Cambridge but the one in Cambridge is by the river where JR Tolkien went to and the Cheshire countryside inspired him to dream up Middle Earth in Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit. And the Green Dragon pub was the name of the pub in Lord of the Rings in The Shire.
I moved to Northwich (Davenham) in 2008 from Torquay because the place had gone down hill and was a shithole, Northwich was quite nice then, felt a lot more "Cheshire" and a lot less "Birmingham" back then, not so much now. Shame really, I am still here, and I've seen nothing but the decline of the town center and a huge surge in housing being built, there's about 10 new housing developments in and around the area and even more being built, I wonder who they're all for? I fly a drone around here and capture all the building sites before and after, one thing is for certain, there's a hell of a lot more Grey and lots less green 16 years since I moved here.
I drove through there going home, was remembering when I visited there back in 2020 feeling naughty being the only person out due to the cough cough lockdown.
@@wanderingwilliam5031 Ha! I went out most days during the cough cough. Wanted to do anything I could to go against the BS "stay at home" orders. Next time you're in the area, pop in for a cuppa if you want. :) 👊
Nantwich is nicer in my opinion but the sorrounding area is nice. But I lived in Nantwich but not Northwich. Good job spotting the building and architecture. As for festivals, there was a good jazz festival and food festival in Nantwich but when I went again a few years ago to the jazz festival it was more like a rock festival and you had to pay to get in to each event. They whole town had live bands playing in different pubs with some gazebos put up.
@@wanderingwilliam5031yeah but Nantwich is starting to join with Crewe with no Greenbelt, maybe apart from the town park. Crewe is where all the retail parks, industry and jobs are, it's where Bentley is and people live in Nantwich if they can afford it. That's why Nantwch has no Weatherspoon, Macdonalds, KFC because its all in Crewe and still quite a few pubs and independent shops.
Not far from me. Nice to see there's still a community there, although the creeping wokeness is disconcerting. The Our Lady statue with the girl, is that representing St. Bernadette/Lourdes William?
The Creeping Wokeness sounds like it might be a rubbery B-movie monster from the 50s, but it's really a neo-communist mind virus that threatens our community, culture and heritage. Northwich has a bit of heritage and some community, but the boarded-up town centre shops will reduce visitors to the town. There are a couple of Our Lady statues outside Catholic churches around here and I don't think they're connected to the Lourdes shrine as such.
I am re doing Cheshire as not happy with the work done there when less confident, I used to go round photographing deserted streets and towns so now want the opposite. I'm not sure to be honest, good question though!.
@@wanderingwilliam5031 That's a good idea. Maybe you could film in one of the pubs, there's quite a few in Northwich, isn't there? Don't know if you'd be allowed though. Yes, I'm a lapsed Catholic, so statues like that interest me. You don't see that many of them remaining now, outside churches.
