Yes it was, & I couldn't think to ask which is not like me lol

Great experience you've had, I'd love to stand in the bell chamber wearing ear defenders & see the bells all go at the same time

I'm not getting into statistics & and performance. I'm proud of em & they look after us, putting their lives on the line when most of us have a safe and cushy life

It's all captured on my phone as it happened, but even so appreciate your comments

Such a special place, & so far, only time I've witnessed the Ellacombe Chimes being played, must return for a meal in that loverly pub

Thankyou very much, these sized events are great

Yes, they were great, looking forward to next year

Thanks Eddie, what's good with Essex is all these events are within 1 hour of me

Built in the 1100s & and ruled by the Knights Hospilalier's imagine that, so little is known of them

It was excellent & included in the entrance fee to Ingatestone Hall, so you could wonder around the Hall grounds & chat with the Tudor Reenactment folk, they would not break out of character & I found myself speaking Coin lol

Just shows what we used to be like, I would have been the fella with the rabbit lol

Thankyou, totally Unplanned on the Ride & Stride but I love climbing west towers

Seems every empire has a thing about Eagles, Rome, Germanica & America & I dare say many more

Oh I loved making this one. Most interesting location, & when I last saw this Church it was taken care of by the Greek Orthodox, most interesting, the old Napoleonic Stone outside had been vandalised, I would like to visit again, South Benflleet ive not covered but has some serious Viking History, fascinating part of Essex in today a busy part

@@paulbutterworthbillericay Very Nice! :) Wishing you a very Enjoyable journey and video making! The old Churches are SO LOVELY, and it's wonderful that the Orthodox people are using them :) If you go back in Church History, England was actually Orthodox before the Western and Eastern split in 1054 AD.....up to that time, all Christian Churches were Orthodox....sad how the split came up and then further splits in the West etc....these lovely old Chapels are so nice! They show how faithful people were....

@joannajones8533 Great knowledge, I found out that my local Church was given to the Nuns of Stratford in 1190, visitors love that one when I tell em, they always look around as if to find one in prayer

@@paulbutterworthbillericay Ahhhhh..that is SO nice! I don't know much about the Church History in England - only that there are several English Saints that are part of the Orthodox Church - as they were canonised as Saints before the 1054 AD split....such as St Alban, the first English Martyr; St Edmund the Martyr; St Aristobulus, Apostle of Britain; and many others.....thus, they are venerated by the Orthodox people in Britain today :) I don't know about the Nuns of Stratford - i shall check that out. Wonderful History about your Local Church! Really nice!

Yes I know what you mean about the old days, put it this way, I went to Burstead School a 5 minutes walk away, Headmaster walked along the corridor with a wearing his black cape & mitre board hat telling us tales of Egypt, the Cater Museum I remember the Curators as you described popping thier head around the door, & exibits on every surface, the new Curator is more with the times & approachable, & I'd like to return as I understand they were working on a Zeppelin room

Excellent your part of the history of Shoebury hope your restoration went well

Excellent thanks for your knowledge, 2 - 3 hours that's a lot of bell ringing, just out of curiosity did you get the opportunity to ring when her Majesty died

I was only there on Sunday, was he a guest, I met him in Normandy, nice fella

Excellent love to see the finnished model, would have love you have seen the original fort

Excellent thanks so much, yes I will carry on God willing, it's an excellent way to spend a day, these events are so laid back & accessible to the public love it

Thanks so much, next year a special anniversary show?, yes I'd not planned on going, & my sat nav took me the strangest way up a wild track, I turned up really late, next time I'll leave at the crack of dawn & have a walkabout, but I love these events, I always feel like a time traveller

Thankyou very much enjoyed it

I remember your offer from last year, you must have a blast reenacting where it actually happened Eddie in Louisiana, yes the Union & Confederate lads do turn up on mass, I'm impressed by thier knowledge & enthusiasm, we're a long way from America & it's states but the American Civil War seems to pull the the heart strings of folk here, I reckon Eddie you could probably could borrow a weapon here from the group, I'm sure they'd help out, next year I'll try & get there early

Thank-you, I know I got caught out straight away by a Vietnam Veteran & like you say the Japanese dependent, I was told his hat was his grandfather's, just fascinating who you'll meet

They have worked hard building it, must be exciting relieving more parts for it

Thanks, it was so big I didn't walk all of it. Another time, I'll get there super early to spend more time

@@paulbutterworthbillericay wonderful!

Thanks, I enjoyed it. The volunteers make it what it is

@@paulbutterworthbillericay im coming next you looks great fun

Thanks, remember it's a long time back the 1960s, I would think there were biker gangs around the time of 63 / 64

Thanks, it's a pleasure making them, thanks so much for watching & commenting

Thanks I don't know what that means

I ment bellringer it came out as challenger😂

@@Haydendeadly16589 lol

There excellent Churches you have visited, parking at Chickney just out front but no car park, in my opinion in England we have some if the finest Churches ever built, most are run down crooked & covered in cobwebs, but the authenticity if them is outstanding, I'm glad you're got a liking for Churches, & I can't believe four years has passed since I shot this video

@paulbutterworthbillericay we did both in one day, have to say although I thought both were great, I found Mundon the more fascinating of the two, as it's like a time capsule, like one day everyone just left and never went back. Also found it decidedly eerie!! Also really enjoyed the one you did on St John's in Danbury....have a special affection for that church, as its where we got married. Dunnonif you've visited the non conformist cemetery in Chelmsford....looks an interesting place with some notable burials. Doesn't have a church attached to it though

Yes Mundons great, did you look out back accross the fields to the petrified trees? I think you'll like Purley near Maldon not always open but great visit, Tilley Abbey ruin & Church is a good one, Danbury I'm interested in the Wooden Effigies of the Knights connected to St Clare family, some serious history, America would have a theme park set up, fascinating stuff

@paulbutterworthbillericay ah no we didn't check those out!! Purley is on the list to visit as I believe it's where my wife's great grandparents are buried

@BazzaHSpeccymad purleys where George Washingtons Great Grandfather comes from, Lawrence Washington & he's buried in Maldons cemetery in town,

Thanks they were great, wernt they

Excellent spray jobs for sure

Your so kind thankyou, I get the impression that the post war decades & even the 40s were better in many ways, I personally love these smaller events & getting to talk with owners who love thier bikes so much

The Canadians certainly had their work cut out, I wonder if the Germans expected Canadians to be an opposing force,

Lol

Great time they had, my dad cast out the TV from 1975 - 1985 so I'm still catching up on dad's army repeats lol

Thankyou, was only passing through & found by chance, so much we saw in one week & so much yet to see loved Normandy

50/50 Lime water

Thanks for correcting the error, great history has that little pond

@@paulbutterworthbillericay Used to bath in there. Not intentionally😁.

I guess England has its own take on such matters, I'm passing through capturing the many facets of Motorcyclying & anything else , makes interesting first viewing I'd like one day to visit America & see such events there. When I was a young fella, travelling Australia, I once got chatting to a biker fella in a Backpackers hostel, he looked so out of place, & said If me and my woman came to the mainland pop in and see them, turns our they were a biker club and when we turned up they couldn't have been nicer to us, I always remember that & its stuck with me so

So...are you always such a negative oxygen thief, or is it just what being so blinkered in your views does to you Zachary...? Why does it have to be Frisco only...😂🤦‍♂️...be a pretty boring world if it was. Real Choppers...lmfao...so you also one of those are you...narrow minded biggot...superb...well done...have a participation medal for extreme idiocy...👍🤣
