Hanwell

Sometimes the guests who've been on, who've been amazing guests, Creatives of the Waterway have shared some incredible facts we've learned about the way ice was brought all the way from Norway and to the ice stores just over there on the canal and that was just all transported by water.

Today though I'm really excited that this Sunday with my big new boat I'm taking on the Hanwell flight which is in West London.

It's a series of six locks with two just after so a lot of people think that there's eight locks in the flight but there's actually six.

And we are going to be a merry hearty crew of us who are going to take on the six locks, eight locks, you know, six or eight.

But now being not used, it is sitting there bricked up and looking pretty haunting as part of this big imposing wall, which now forms the border of today's Ealing Hospital.

there you go there's your nerdy canal fact for the show okay uh actually as i bring in this next one i've got a new oh no i stopped it I've got another story for you.

I found a Colombian-themed cafe in Hanwell full of parrots.

There are parrots absolutely everywhere.

Lewisham, a figure in a bear skin and spring shoes jumping out in front of people at night.

Ealing, Hanwell, Brentford, Hounslow, Twickenham, Teddington, Uxbridge, West Drayton, Richmond, Petersham, Ham.

By January of 1838, more than 30 villages and districts around London are reporting something.

A bull, a bear, an imp, a ghost, a man in armor.

When his father's tour of duty was over, the family returned from India to the UK.

By the age of 34, Campbell was married, working for an engineering company and living with his wife in Hanwell, West London.

I don't think he had any previous convictions.

I don't think he'd come to the notice of the police at all.

"I am very much obliged to you, my dear Anna, and should be very happy to come and see you again if I could, but I have not a day disengaged.

We are expecting your Uncle Charles tomorrow, and I am to go the next day to Hanwell to fetch some Miss Moors, who are to stay until Saturday.

Then comes Sunday and Elizabeth Gibson, and on Monday your Uncle Henry takes us both to Chawton.

It is therefore really impossible, but I am very much obliged to you and to Mr.

He saw women as there for him, to protect him, to do things for him.

Yeah.

How excited do you get when you go to the Three Bridges in Hanwell? Have you been there?

Uh, yeah.

I, I mean, I, I've done some rare track.

But like when you kind of put it in the perspective of that, I think that you would probably drink the same amount.

When I go to like Hamwell town, for example, I drink the same amount of beers I would at a Fulham game, but I just have this beer and stand in the ground and watch it.

Like, it doesn't make any difference to the amount of content that I consume.

And maybe I'm not the great example here, but like, I just feel it's really odd as a discussion point that every time, and it's really weird that every time we have this discussion, everyone's like, our football fans are animals, which is where we got, which got us to this in the first place.

when he first met you, that was back in the day, and he said to me, you was already a writer.

You'd already been back in Hanwell.

Yeah, yeah, I was already writing.

I'd already done like a couple of small little missions and that.
