    Brilliant big man. What you hopefully experienced at the L.G. concert, the jumping about, the community feeling, all of us together, everyone singing the same words that bind us together. That is the nearest feeling you get going to a live football match, especially an away game.
    A bucket item list well and truly ticked by you, next time a footy match I hope.

    I saw this and thought you might find it interesting.
    In 1743, the 1st Duke of Bridgewater died. He had eight children, but two boys had died in childhood and four were girls (so didn’t count when it came to inheritance). Therefore his eldest surviving son, John, became the 2nd Duke of Bridgewater. However, just three years later, John died of a fever. This left the youngest child of all, Francis, a 12-year old boy, as the 3rd Duke of Bridgewater and heir to several vast country estates and a large fortune.
    Francis was a sickly child. Many thought he would go to an early grave, like his brothers. But he didn’t. He was shy and clumsy, so much so that people openly said the lad was “slow”, "backward" and a “half-wit”. For a time, it was seriously discussed about having the boy legally deprived of his inheritance due to his seemingly limited mental ability. But they didn’t. In the end, the boy grew up to be socially awkward and rather naïve, but was otherwise deemed quite capable enough.
    When Francis reached the age of 21, he officially came into his fortune. It must have been like winning the lottery. He was determined to spend it and enjoy himself. So set off he went to London. He bought a big house there, filled it with the best furniture and nice things, and kitted himself out in the finest clothes. He went to all the posh parties, balls and dinners.
    Despite being socially inept, and not at all handsome, witty or clever, as often happens to people with money, he soon acquired a wide circle of friends, And, almost immediately, he fell hopelessly and madly in love with the prettiest woman in the room. She was an Irish beauty and the toast of high society. But whilst her looks, grace and charm brought her a wealth of admirers, she was rather short of that other kind of wealth - commonly known as cash. So, few people were surprised that the Duke proposed to her, and even less surprised when she said yes. They got engaged.
    But it all ended in tears. Within a year the engagement was broken off for reasons unknown. Utterly heart-broken, Francis left London and came back north, to his estates at Worsley. He threw himself into work, managing his estates and looking at how they might be improved.
    He took an interest in his coal mine at Worsley, which wasn’t doing well. It was producing plenty of coal, but the problem was how to get the coal from Worsley to Manchester and Salford, where it was needed. You could only move so much coal on a horse and cart and it was slow and expensive. The best way to move the heavy coal was obviously by boat on a river, but there were no rivers running from the coal mine to Manchester. So, to solve this conundrum, Francis took a gamble - the biggest gamble of his life. He and his estate manager, John Gilbert came up with a plan to build an artificial river from the coal mine to Manchester. Back then they called such an artificial river a "navigation", (hence the term "navvies"). Today we tend to just call them canals. Apart from a small navigation at Sankey Brook, near St. Helens, there were no other canals in Britain. Nothing like it had ever been tried before.
    John Gilbert recommended to Francis that they hire an engineer, James Brindley, to build it. Although Brindley had very little schooling, and it was said he struggled to read and write, he was nevertheless known as a very clever engineer and builder.
    There were three big problems: 1. how to get a canal across the River Irwell, 2. how to get it up to the coal mine which was on higher ground and 3. how to keep the canal topped up with water. To any right-minded person it was impossible and Francis was repeatedly warned it was a folly. Yet he went ahead. He sunk his entire fortune into this one project and it almost broke him.
    Francis put his trust in Gilbert and Brindley. And they found solutions: 1. the Barton Aqueduct took the canal over the Irwell, 2. the canal didn’t go up the hill to the mine, but instead went into it the hill, via tunnels, so it went underground directly to the coal mine and 3. the water pumped out of the coal mine was used to keep the canal topped up.
    The Bridgwater Canal was opened on 17th July, 1761. When the first barges brought the Duke’s coal into Manchester, he could sell it at half the price of any competitor and still make a huge profit. Within a few years, the Bridgewater Canal had paid for itself. Francis got Brindley to build an extension from Manchester to Runcorn, to link up with the River Mersey. So he now owned the main waterway between Manchester and Liverpool.
    Today, the old canal might look like a peaceful backwater. But canals were the super-highways of their time. The Duke’s coal was in great demand and played a big part in the rise of Manchester. The success of the Bridgewater Canal sparked off a canal building mania which helped drive the Industrial Revolution, upon which much of the modern world was founded.
    Francis died aged 67 in 1803. By then, he was the richest man in England and greatly admired. He was also unmarried and childless (a nephew inherited). We can only wonder whether Francis or his ex-fiancée ever had any regrets (she maybe didn't, as after breaking off the engagement, she married another Duke and died a wealthy woman). Perhaps if Francis had married her and stayed in London, the history of Salford and Manchester and the Industrial Revolution might have been somewhat different.
    One thing's for sure: Francis never was the "half-wit" people had said he was.

    The boats are called narrow boats they have been around since the 1700's and origanal use was for transporting goods as the roads back then where muddy tracks.
    The advent of steam railways sore the decline except in WW2 women would navigate them for the war effort.
    The ones you see to day some are privately owned and some can be hired and some are used for pleasure trips.

    With Indian food, sometimes you will find a bunch of curries that do automatically come with rice but not in the best places really. Most curries are meant to be served either with rice or with naan (not both) and there are usually a few different types of rice and also naan, so ordering everything separately means you get exactly what you want and aren't stuck with plain boiled rice, when you would rather have had jasmine and if you want double carbs you can jolly well have double carbs.

      it was prob the extras they add up yes curry may been 1/3 more expensive (guess) but you add that water that prob £3, pint prob about the same, desert could be around £10 who know could be more, bread that £2-4 as ts a more up scale place all these things do add up. but as one off you might as well try a good one, next best option i find if you want a good Indian what not crazy cost a small town one they normally very good because if they were not they would not last long in small place. in a city with lots options you can getaway with not being great you always get custom unless word mouth was that bad. about £20-30 to your door with a load extras prob good for 2 normal meals but i eat a lot in one sitting so £40 for 2 but you can cheap out and get a filling meal for around £15 sometimes less

    Your entire UK vlog should just be thrown on the UK tourist board website. \you appear to have had the best in your life, the best time of your life, best musical experience, etc, all over. That's great. Do come back with the other 50% of the Suck. It improves the balance of payments no end and permits us to sit around watching RUclips all day. To my mind, fine dining requires a minimum of cotton table cloths and cutlery already laid out on the table. 78 quid for curry for one is insane anywhere except Mayfair (posh bit of London). The boats you saw on the canal are narrow boats. You can hire them for up to 12 people. You end up getting up hungover, boating 20 miles (at 4mph) to a decent looking canalside pub and getting smashed. The cycle repeats for as long as you booked the boat for... Afflecks was set up by a bloke who wanted some premises to run a business but couldn't find anywhere small enough, so he took the lease on Affleck's (Palace) and sublet stalls to loads of people who wanted a small place to run a business...

    It runs for 36 miles, the start is at the Eastham locks in Birkenhead, Liverpool and ends at the Salford Quays in Manchester.
    It was opened by Queen Victoria on the 21st May 1894.

Certainly not my favourite part of the city, but nothing like as bad as some like to present it. I’m old enough to remember when it had the sunken garden (pre-2000) and whilst the city was a lot quieter, the drug use in the gardens was a lot more obvious.

    The curry mile is disgusting I used to deliver beer there so I went in the back door and saw the kitchens. Pure filth, days old meat in buckets going green men going for a crap and straight back to handling food no handwashing. Spitting all over the floor outside, when I questioned what the meat was in the buckets they rushed you out quick. Don't be fooled by the air-conditioning and nice furniture avoid but if you do go there get the vegetable option.
