Jill and I really enjoyed your  "Spring Saunter" Eric. The video reminded me Of Wisley with its massive greenhouse,and of Westonbirt with its tree top walk. Great stuff.

Very nice Gordon, enjoyed the wildlife in the sea, and Vera seems like a very attractive person...

Very nice Gordon and a very merry Christmas to you and yours.

Here is my festive offering. We took a trip back to Nymans to see their Fairytale Christmas https://youtu.be/fWHdKnp4lQc Just a tad under four minutes - hope you enjoy it.

You're right Alfred, at this time of the year we always arrive home in darkness. No great deal. We leave home at 10'o'clock, arrive at 11.30 just in time for elevenses, and by midday we are enjoying ourselves walking around the park. Sheffield Park closes its doors at 4 o'clock, so we have around 3 to 4 hours of 'sight seeing'. It always takes longer getting home as we have to get onto the M25 during the rush hour, which can add an extra half an hour to the journey time.

Thanks Alfred, we go there most years at this time of the year and it's always very uplifting and well worth the 90 minute drive.

Those strimmers seemed to be everywhere as we roamed around. So much so that I had to mute most of the soundtrack and substitute it with a soundtrack of birdsong.

Sounds very exciting with a film crew about to start work at Penshurst. We don't subscribe to Amazon TV so we will not be watching the final outcome unfortunately, but good luck at being an extra,

For our final visit we went to a National Trust property in south Gloucestershire called Dyrham Park. Very picturesque with its magnificent trees and beautiful gardens. https://youtu.be/87WOaEYexuk

OK gentlemen, you can stop pondering the identity of "shouty", I have to confess it was young Albert Ross. I have no idea why I appear to be shouting, if fact I'm sure that I wasn't, but I could see that Richard's camera was pointing in my direction... well he always messes around when he thinks I am pointing my camera at him.

I am curious Eric, or maybe I am being a bit thick, but how did you manage to view "shouty" without clicking on the download option?

Thanks Eric, I did not realise that, we have seen quite a few black swans on our travels and I was oblivious that they were a southern hemisphere species, you live and learn.

Thanks Gordon, it took us an extra half an hour to get there, and a bit longer to get back, but that is the joy of motoring isn't it. As you can tell from the video, we had a lovely bright day and were quite tired when we got back -oh to be 30 again!

Did you appreciate how privileged you were when you met him as a young child?

The only thing I can remember about Churchill was when I went to watch my team Spurs down the Lane back in the 1960s, we had to stand for a minutes silence before the game to show our respects as he had died just a few days earlier.

Thanks Gordon for your video, I really enjoyed it, if that's the right word! I have never made a video entirely based around a church and graveyard, although a few of my videos do feature such places, just for a few seconds or so.

I do remember watching your video Eric a few years ago and thought then, what a very strange subject for a video, but it was a strangely enjoyable watch.

Thanks again both.

Thank you Gordon, three very different videos. I do remember the opera singer and your 'trek', but the one which really struck me was the last video of the never sold properties, it looked like a scene from the BBC daytime programme called "Homes Under the Hammer" where property developers buy up dilapidated buildings, work on them for a few months then sell them off for a decent profit. Maybe the BBC could do a Spanish version of the show.

This is my last video of the series, filmed at Leonardslee in West Sussex https://youtu.be/7mlxLVBUL9g I have never posted a picture of a frame before, but I thought this was particularly charming.

Find out why Jill was smiling, it may surprise you!!
