Thank you @Saved_Souls95 that's very much appreciated 👍.

Ooops! Sorry Devon, my bad. Thank you very much @vern1588 for flagging that, I will put it right straight away. I've filmed so much in Dorset that writing it seems to have become force of habit.

No worries 😅 It's my home town. Great video though.

@@vern1588 It's one of my favourite places and I'm pleased to say I'll be back there in September to make another contribution to the local economy and get a better street level 'walk about' video I hope.

Cheers for the comment @pauldupre8894 👍

Thanks for the comment. I think one of the wall plaques in the Noble Area marked her visit to Baton Rouge. She felt pretty sturdy moored on a peaceful day, but I certainly wouldn't want to find myself onboard her mid Atlantic in a gale-force storm at night.

and this would be big at that time, Juan Sebastián Elcano made the first trip around the world in a much smaller shell, greetings from Andalucía, Spain!

A very nice prize too

Thank you @tyler23764, nor did I. Having now see it, I'm kinda glad there is.

Cheers @olliestudio45 I'm still very much a rookie at this, so lots of room for improvement.

Imposing is definitely the right word. Thank you for your comment.

Thank you very much indeed for your comment, that's a really interesting connection you have to what was such a significant event in English history.

Thank you very much indeed, wow! I'm still on a steep learning curve with flying and post production skills, and a very long way from perfect, so your comment is extremely encouraging. Thank you again, I really appreciate your comment a lot.

Picky-picky

@@Paulftate Yes, I probably am a bit. But I'm also dyslexic and find that I can't block out the music, so that I can listen to the narration.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. Yes you're right the music is too loud, will not make that mistake again.

@@townsandestates I am sorry to be negative about your video, and I was interested in the history and background. So I thought it was worth mentioning.

I'm grateful for your comment, and I don't feel that it was negative at all. it was constructive criticism that helps me in my efforts to improve what I'm doing, I hope. One thing I have learnt is that turning out good videos isn't as easy as some people here manage to make it look, but I will keep going. I get the feeling that in general people prefer videos with narration rather than just music or neither, but I could be wrong. Thanks again for your comment.

Thanks Lewis, yes me too, and I want to do a much better job of it this time. There's a lot of history to Hylands House and a lot more to the grounds than can be properly shown by drone. I'm currently finishing off a video on Corfe Castle in Dorset which will be uploaded on Monday all being well, but the 'proper' Hylands video is well overdue now.

It's a great country. My brother and sister both live there.

Thank you very much for the comment, and yes you're correct about the beach huts. They are colourful and extremely expensive. I've heard they can sell for a six figure sum.

@@townsandestates I was born and raised in England before moving to California... the beach huts were always expensive and had a waiting list. But the high prices were never justified, especially as they have no electric/water or sewage connections. And let's be honest, the renters were usually absent most of the time. Southwold is a pleasant enough place, but it's not Santa Barbara or Morro Bay!

Yes, there are a huge number of 'outsiders' who have property in Southwold... rented out as holiday lets, so the town is very much quieter out of season. Although we do have a friend that owns one of the beach huts and she does actually live in Southwold. But I think the only fair comparisons that can be drawn between Southwold and Santa Barbara is that they both start with the letter 'S' and both have the letter 't' as their fourth letter. Oh and they are both beside the sea of course.

@@townsandestates The town is quiet alright, the kind of place Patrick McGoohan might have chosen for 1960s TV's THE PRISONER, if he hadn't been able to film at Portmeirion. That would've been fitting for a place that George Orwell once lived... and being that I'm almost 70 now, the Southwold pace of life would suit me too!

Thank you so much 👍
