It is a lovely town, with a charm of its own. You are lucky to be able to call it home 🙏👍

I had to watch this video as the town holds many personal memories, it is good to see the town centre retaining its charm with many independent shops, but my favourite is Jephson Gardens. Thanks for sharing.

Andy it was a pleasure to visit. We have been a few times but you see it with a different eye when you look through the lense. Pleased you enjoyed it. 🙏👍

Nooo, did I really see a left over milkshake @1:05 on that yellow 'thing' on the lampost? Nooo! 😂 😂 Love the elephants. Oh a market, or was it a fair, lovely. It's been a while- everything looks so 'normal' again. Relaxed and enjoy the day! Loved the drone shot of the area. Lovely share Derek and Carol. Enjoyed the relaxed and gentle walk. Thanks 👍 💖 🇳🇱 🙋‍♀ 🇳🇿

The food at fiver rivers is exceptional! Very tasty and well prepared and you can chose among many menu options. I love the service at the place and the chef is so friendly with the guests and always takes care to offer the best quality! I highly recommend this place.

I've lived in Leamington and Warwick my entire life. I liked that the brutalism still seeps through at times. When you got to the pizza express corner and took a trip to the park instead of going across the bridge to the places past the train tracks I just understood it to be focusing on the nice parts instead of the urban sprawl.

There are many channels that focus on the urban, but we tend to show the nicest areas. When you are in an area for a short time it tends to restrict movement. We still can’t avoid the graffiti, rubbish bins and the numerous to let and for sale signs. Thanks for making a comment it all helps 🙏👍😉

@@fuckdefed we only focus on the positive, there is enough negativity in our dysfunctional world. But even in the grim can be beautiful sometimes. As you may well see in Derek’s Street Photography.

Amazing work, shots are gorgeous! Such a serene place!

Thanks Don, just got back from Paris. That was a bit of a cultural shock. 🙏👍

My home town and very pretty it is too, if I say so myself! You’ll normally catch the ‘que sera bloke’ performing on the parade rather than in Jephson gardens. Nice aerial shots too, I’m not used to seeing those.
