I have been a subscriber for years, i suddenly realized i never thanked you for the amazing content and information, so thank you very much for what you do Mr. J
We watch and then rewatch episodes. Absolutely enjoy the videos. We love how Joolz blends music and narrative in guiding us around London. Would love to have a private tour with Joolz some day.
I'm finishing my Sunday in Australia watching the one and only Joolz. I'm a Londoner but been away for almost 20 years. Love the place, love these videos
I had so much fun watching this. Its always a history lesson with you Joolz. Hope you are doing well. Your friend, Steve Bonds from Bay City, Michigan USA
Lovely one Jools. When I was a lad in the 50s the street was lit by gas and the road surface made of wooden blocks covered in tar, also we had a coal hole cover.
was left with an elderly lady while my mother was at work in South London and she still had gas lighting in her maisonette. I was sent to pay the Coalman, who lived in a prefab in Balham & the rag & bone man called on his horse driven cart regularly
Hi, Joolz! Thank you for coming up with a spiffing contest. It relieves me from having to take endless photos of my in-laws. I'd rather take a photo of a double stink pipe...
Only 3 minutes in, but I love this idea, Joolz! A great way to engage and bring joy outside the video. Excited to hunt, whenever one can traverse hemispheres again, that is!
Horay a new Jooz video. The day just got better. I love how it's called "street furniture." The implication in my mind is that I might chance upon a comfy chaise lounge... I never have but live i hope such things exist.
I wonder if you could make a tour of trainstations? ...Big fan of your channel, I love your attention to the little things! Best regards from Denmark :-) :-*
Joolz, I have learned so much from you. I can't wait until things are better and I can visit London and look for all these things. I was in Clevedon on Friday and noticed a GR postbox, which made me think of these vids. Thank you for being so entertaining and educational. Stay safe and keep the vids coming. Lizzie :-)
I was in London in 1994, I remember seeing one of those stink poles, that fancy one in Kenington cross. No points here, that was very long ago. We in Cambridge, MA, still have those "MILE" markers. There's one in Harvard square on the corner of the cemetary there. Thanks muchly Mr Joolz 👍🏻🙏🏻😊☂🎩
I love watching your videos and think of London as my second home! I was thrilled to see your feature on building fire insurance plaques - my father was seconded to London in the late 70s with Sun Alliance Insurance and we lived there as a family - a wonderful opportunity for someone from the colonies. Such fond memories - thanks Joolz. Anything on Knightsbridge in the future?
As soon as I’m let loose in the capital again I’m gonna nonchalantly search out these hidden gems. By nonchalantly I obviously mean fervently. Good work again sir.
Yet another rendition of mindblowing, but incredibly pleasant miscellanea. What ON EARTH would we do without you delightful ramblings. For all lesser mortals - enjoy. For tomorrow we.....
The last time I was in London was when Yugoslavia still existed, so I really adore watching your videos and seeing how much has changed. :) And I absolutely adore your outfits, you always look so snazzy. :)
It is definitely time for you to return. I had a big gap in trips...from 1986 to 2003; it was a shock to the system to see all of the changes. Now, I try to go regularly before I get too old. Good luck.
Thank you so much, Joolz, love all your trips around my favorite city but now you give me great ideas for MY next London. Had to miss this Feb but I’ll be back next year, for sure, and then I’ll be sure to play your game! Cheers! 🥰👍🇬🇧👑
Joolz talks about "gems", but he's surely a gem himself in the way he keeps up the line to London in these strange times. This video made my Sunday evening!
Such a great historical street snooping channel. I must have walked past these places hundreds of times and been completely oblivious to all these historical landmarks and insignias.
Wonderful Stuff, Sir: that's My kind of Day Out! We have just one gas lamp extant here in Melbourne, Australia. I urge people to look up when they walk the city's streets - so much detail to see! Thank you, I have now subscribed. 👁️
My friends are going to be blown away when I hit them with the knowledge I've gathered from binging all your videos these past two weeks. A really hidden gem of RUclips - marvellously researched, fantastically shot, and masterfully presented. As a Londoner who has often walked past these things without much thought, I can't express enough how much I love your videos! Cheers!
Hello Nigel yes u are absolutely right. Whenever we travel to other countries and we live there we learn the about country culture the mentality and the people
There were water troughs even 30 years ago in old Calcutta, the city of my youth. We didn't know what they were until my mother explained they were for the horses, during her childhood.
Apparently that bollard wearing the hat was available. LOL Another great video. Your videos have lifted my spirits during this depressing Covid lockdown. I hope return to London one day
Another spiffing video Joolz but without the doubt the most cheering sight was you at the end actually in a pub enjoying an ale! As the saying goes It's not over til the tall gent in a blazer is downing a pint.
@@othernicksweretaken Same, that would be a good one. Maybe now that shops are starting to open, there could be one about historically significant shops around London, or could go the other way and do one of the most significant people's grave stones in London.
i live in toulouse, i'm english. i love london. your videos are great. there are now lots of interesting details for me to look out for. thanks jooolz.
1st time I've seen your channel really enjoyed the info. It's so interesting to see how the past is so incorporated into our every day life. Thank you Sir.
Joolzie, oh Joolzie what a wonderful challenge! You are a Jewel! How many points do we get if we spot you! Really loved this exceptional video...well done! Every time I hear Terry St.Clair...goosebumps, love the quality of his voice! Thank you for your videos, it really lifts the spirit! Take really good care...stay safe! Much love 💖x
A unless (or not so unless, depending on how you look at it)! Early post boxes had the letter slot pointing at an angle downwards. This proved to be a bit of a design fault, as, rain would get in and soak all your lovley 18th century mail, so latterly, they have them angled upward which is to this day - result - nice, dry post! ;-)
I have pictures of 2 of the items from previous trips. London's first water fountain and a post box but I am not in the photos. Thanks for another cool video. Found a few more things to look for when I eventually go to London again.
My mum has been ‘collecting’ cattle troughs on her travels around Australia for years. In particular the ones put there by a certain person, I think Annis & Bills. Now I look for them when I travel.
I actually think that you should do a coffee table book with all these marvelous signs and facts . You will make a fortune in your special way of delivery.
What a great video. It had many interesting places. I like very much history, so IT had also very interesting history too. Greetings from Turku Finland and have a nice and sunny summer.
Dave Bamber I think that was filmed in Roupell street at Waterloo. I remember seeing those old Citroen's parked in the street. They were made when cars had real character.
I watch your chanel since a long time, so, I know where these interesting spots are, and I would have won a lot of points ! 😊 Ah! Just sad I live in Canada far away from London 😉
Another Joolz video so soon, Thanks, I thought I would have had to wait another couple of week before my next Dose of Joolz Magic. So glad you finally managed to get a pint or two in the pub at the end. Very informative and entertaining as usual. I always learn lots from your videos.
A Sunday morning jaunt through London in the company of it's famous (or should be) wag. Wish there were more. Videos I mean. And the pubs are open. Hooray
A few comments Joolz, 1. WONDERFUL to see you and enjoy such fabulous content and history! 2. Streets of London always triggers an emotional response in me. They used to make us sing it in assembly, in the 80s and I had to try not to cry every time. 3. Looking forward to feeling safe enough for a trip across to London to note all these wonderful historical artefacts. 4. I just recently learned about the fire insurance in London but didn't know it was still Sun Life. 5. Thanks you again for honouring and sharing our history 😊😊😊
While at art college I studied the street name plates in London. Tied to potteries and tin and enamelling workshops. Some painted, all sorts. Fascinating.
@@Joolzguides My grandfather was parish clerk of St George in the East. Also the Sexton & an undertaker. so love looking at the old mortuary in the grounds there. Always hoping his ghost might stroll by, as no idea what he looked like :)
Thank you for doing these guides. we have really enjoyerd them and learned so much from you. Can you tell us, how were the 'coal hole covers' lifted please?

Your bubble reflects you, it's not the other way around.
one view is just not enough
I have been a subscriber for years, i suddenly realized i never thanked you for the amazing content and information, so thank you very much for what you do Mr. J
Your videos are probably the closest I'll ever get to touring around London. Thank you, as always.
loving this. Reminds me of being a kid with those I-Spy books.
Thank you Joolz for making Sunday just a little bit better!
I can’t wait to return to my favorite city in the world, London. Until then, I’m so grateful for Joolz’s Guides!
We watch and then rewatch episodes. Absolutely enjoy the videos. We love how Joolz blends music and narrative in guiding us around London. Would love to have a private tour with Joolz some day.

Same here Dan ,but born in Crawley
Those pesky £10 poms.

By ship or plane????
Going first class you snob Steve.

Hi, Joolz!
Thank you for coming up with a spiffing contest. It relieves me from having to take endless photos of my in-laws.
I'd rather take a photo of a double stink pipe...
Only 3 minutes in, but I love this idea, Joolz! A great way to engage and bring joy outside the video. Excited to hunt, whenever one can traverse hemispheres again, that is!
Great to see you finishing up having a pint in a pub! Hard to believe that you haven't done this since March!
Ah, beautiful London! Visited in 1979, too young to appreciate little delights such as these. Thank you so much.
Horay a new Jooz video. The day just got better. I love how it's called "street furniture." The implication in my mind is that I might chance upon a comfy chaise lounge... I never have but live i hope such things exist.
Hope springs eternal!
I've seen a sofa made of curved bricks near the docks
I worked for architects/landscape architects in Sydney for 9 years and it is still known as street furniture
I wonder if you could make a tour of trainstations? ...Big fan of your channel, I love your attention to the little things! Best regards from Denmark :-) :-*

Haven't been so stoked for an upload notification in long while!
same!
My favourite RUclips channel! Can’t wait to get back to London to spot these 🥰 thank you for your amazing videos!
One of the best channels on RUclips. Such a wonderful guide.

I miss Boston! My favorite city! Have wanted to go to London, my whole life!
this man cheers me up with his jolly nature.was watching to many car accidents and bikes being stolen this makes a refreshing change.
Can't wait to get back to London to follow in footsteps of Joolz..!!! well maybe not the exact footsteps ..
I love watching your videos and think of London as my second home!

Love street furniture and these items are fascinating--thanks for a terrific tour.
Multiple viewings are always devoutly to be wished for. Such fun to watch. I love what you do!! 👍🙋♀️🥂
I was laughing when he turned to that couple for the answer lol
They were very helpful. Lawyers! I had to be careful.
Excellent as always Jules. Love your boater and Jacket, no I wonder who else copies our wardrobe!
That's what I love about London, there's so much fascinating history. Thanks Joolz. Who knew that about the milestone.
The BEST way to start the morning here in Wisconsin USA. Stay safe!
Thank you so much, Joolz, love all your trips around my favorite city but now you give me great ideas for MY next London. Had to miss this Feb but I’ll be back next year, for sure, and then I’ll be sure to play your game! Cheers! 🥰👍🇬🇧👑
See you then!
Love your guides Jools. Must have been a unique experience to film in these strange times - especially during full lockdown.
Joolz talks about "gems", but he's surely a gem himself in the way he keeps up the line to London in these strange times. This video made my Sunday evening!
Such a great historical street snooping channel. I must have walked past these places hundreds of times and been completely oblivious to all these historical landmarks and insignias.

Wonderful video, Joolzy! Wish people had the passion for the history of London town like you have!
Thank you for educating me about piss shields, I was previously oblivious.
Thank you so much Jools love your every walk & the history of London. Haven't lived there for ages but enjoy every visit 💟💟💟
Marvellous - I'm in Korea, but used to live in London many years ago - thanks for bringing back memories, but teaching me stuff I never knew.
Hello Nigel yes u are absolutely right. Whenever we travel to other countries and we live there we learn the about country culture the mentality and the people
Outstanding! This gets posted to my several friends who had planned London visits this summer..
I can’t wait to fly back to London just to play this game. Great history lesson too!
There were water troughs even 30 years ago in old Calcutta, the city of my youth. We didn't know what they were until my mother explained they were for the horses, during her childhood.
Love love love that bit about stretchers! Urine deflector bit was (lol) hilarious too. Thanks Joolz.
Love the new shoes and the video as always. 👍👍👍👍🏆.
Apparently that bollard wearing the hat was available. LOL
Another great video. Your videos have lifted my spirits during this depressing Covid lockdown.
I hope return to London one day
Thanks Joolz. London looks amazing, especially if you love history! Look forward to visiting.
Another spiffing video Joolz but without the doubt the most cheering sight was you at the end actually in a pub enjoying an ale! As the saying goes It's not over til the tall gent in a blazer is downing a pint.
Can we please have an episode of London football grounds. Love the channel.
I'd like to see a Joolz video about the famous London railway termini.
@@othernicksweretaken Same, that would be a good one. Maybe now that shops are starting to open, there could be one about historically significant shops around London, or could go the other way and do one of the most significant people's grave stones in London.
Amazingly amazing and brilliantly brilliant. Must make it to jolly old London post pandemic side. Ascot and spectator shoes as well.
Another brilliant video guide, well done Joolz !!
i live in toulouse, i'm english. i love london. your videos are great. there are now lots of interesting details for me to look out for. thanks jooolz.
Lovely, wonderful, lovelyful! Your films make me glad. Thank you mr Guides!

My favorite JG video so far! Plus we say "Language, Timothy" in this (American) house on the regular. :-)
This is your BEST VIDEO EVER ! Loved all those little old tips.
We want more !!
A unless (or not so unless, depending on how you look at it)! Early post boxes had the letter slot pointing at an angle downwards.

Very dapper shoes old chap!
I have enjoyed every minute of your video! Can't wait to see the next one.
Spending my New Years Eve watching Joolz and planning our London trip! Happy New Year, everyone!
Working today so only just got to tune it....another great video and a great tune from the brilliant Terry St Clair 👍👍👏👏
Thanks so much for walking through my beloved London childhood and grown up memories golden years!!!! From lockdown South Africa 🌍😇🎥🙏😨
Another fun video from Joolz... Very interesting fun and informative
I have pictures of 2 of the items from previous trips. London's first water fountain and a post box but I am not in the photos.

brilliant, talk about being a mine of information.
I actually think that you should do a coffee table book with all these marvelous signs and facts . You will make a fortune in your special way of delivery.
Thank you Joolz - sanity in a mad world. Keep on going my friend, we'll follow....
Joolz, you rock! ...plain and simple. I hope you announce the winner for all to see.
What a great video. It had many interesting places. I like very much history, so IT had also very interesting history too. Greetings from Turku Finland and have a nice and sunny summer.
Great car spotting on the fire insurance street. 2 Citroen DS a Citroen SM, and a Citroen BX. Niiice!😎😎👍😉
Dave Bamber I think that was filmed in Roupell street at Waterloo. I remember seeing those old Citroen's parked in the street. They were made when cars had real character.
Joolz never ceases to amaze. Very Interesting. Thanks.
I watch your chanel since a long time, so, I know where these interesting spots are, and I would have won a lot of points ! 😊 Ah! Just sad I live in Canada far away from London 😉
Another great video Joolz! As someone who has spent their entire life in London it's fascinating to see how much I don't know about the city.
Absolutely fascinating, I’ll have to have a look next time I’m in London.
Another great video Joolz, it’s fascinating to know there’s still living history in our beloved capital city.
Great to see another video by you. Greetings from South Africa.
Another Joolz video so soon, Thanks, I thought I would have had to wait another couple of week before my next Dose of Joolz Magic. So glad you finally managed to get a pint or two in the pub at the end. Very informative and entertaining as usual. I always learn lots from your videos.
Glad to see you up and about again Joolz. I was worried London Lockdown was negativity affecting you. Keep your head up😁
Another saucy one Jules. Thank you. Have a great week. 😷😷
Good to see normal service has resumed somewhere in this mad world. Keep up the good work
A Sunday morning jaunt through London in the company of it's famous (or should be) wag. Wish there were more. Videos I mean. And the pubs are open. Hooray

And one day, God willing, we may have tour guides pointing out the antique plastic virus guards between pub tables.
Wonderful video!!!
Love your videos - my husband thinks you sound like Michael Palin. 😁
While at art college I studied the street name plates in London. Tied to potteries and tin and enamelling workshops. Some painted, all sorts. Fascinating.
Very good. Love the music along with the tour and the attire. Bravo!
Ooooooo a new video, my Dad watched your last one and he got married to my mum in one of those Churches in Stoke Newington 😀
How lovely!
