    Hi Bill, thanks for the shout out, it was nice to see the old art installation again for old times' sake. A nice little mooch around Shaldon, that punch card is proving its worth now and god that despite travelling on the covered boat you weren't caught in any liquid sunshine. See you tomorrow mate. 👍👍👍

    Greetings from OZ. We have friends in Shaldon and now through your videos we know more about the place than they do 😅😅. Your walks through the back streets really give us a feel for the place.

    Aha yes filming in shop windows... Many years ago I was in Paris with my son for a weekend, part of his school project. We were excitedly looking around and I had my cam corder. Then an irate shop assistant came out shouting at us in French... Saying something about filming not allowed.... I pointed back into to shop window where they were filming us as we were looking in..... Mad or what? But never mind.

    Yes, it is daft - But she was OK. Had some trouble with someone taking a photo of some chairs and trying to sell them on eBay - Guy got scammed and police traced the chairs to her shop - She had to prove it wasn't her - Nightmare!
