I'm looking forward to it

Cheers! Yep! The weather has been so wet, so have been a bit stuck inside, so amused myself making animations - Anyways got out the other day and have a new East Devon Way video in the pipeline -

Yeah! I thought you would - Its not to everyones taste, but I spent a lot of time and trouble making sure I'd got it just right !!!

Yep! Neofantastalithic1

Hi, sorry so long to reply - been on holiday - walking in Portugal - Yeah! Its a lovely walk and flat too for a few of mty older friends - Cheers Mike

Ah! Memories - Yep! I remember the old bridge - It seemed endlessly long and narrow - reversing if you met something

@@mikejurassic Are you from around there? I moved away back in the early 80's. I also remember the bridge you mentioned at Musbury, We would ride our bikes on the main road and turn right at Turn Pike cottage down the lane and past the farm on the right until the lane ended and walk across the field to the bridge.

@@oldtimer4863 Yeah! I live in Beer - sometimes had a picnic there by the river as a kid - then later used to drink at the Hare and Hounds - seem to remember landlord was called Bill ...

@@mikejurassic My local was The Shute Arms, also in Colyton The King Fisher, The Gerrard Arms and Colyton Club. I now live in Mid Devon. Many of my family are burred at Shute church.

Cheers - its not been hot lately in Devon, but it has been mild -

Thanx - good to hear from you Trev -

Hi John, great to hear from you - the camp was a while back now, but been busy doing other stuff - got a part 2 to come soon - Yeah! My arm, seem to bruise and cut so easily these day from minor bumps - any way all good here - looking forward to your next adventure -

Yeah! It was one of those balmy nights with sun and no wind and everything was just right - thanx for the compliment on soundtrack - I must get around to doing some more - but its a winter thing really - when its raining

Yeah I think Jake's hooked now - he's great company out in the wild - its great wilderness - just wish it was bigger

@@mikejurassic I could tell you were having fun -- good company indeed.

Glad you enjoyed it

He's a nice guy - had a great morning with him

Ta

Yeah! 'Twas very cold - but we all thoroughly enjoyed the company etc - I'm looking forward to your next one - Did you watch the Budleigh Towers one of mine? ruclips.net/video/I5Sz9cJyf1Q/видео.html Not up to your standard, but it was more of a reporter type effort -

Hi, yep that was me & couple of my kids - I'm gonna try Cut Hill one day - was there room for 2 or 3 tents there? There's is plenty on room at Fur Tor, though some of it is a bit wet - Cheers

@@mikejurassic I had to walk around it quite a bit looking for somewhere dry and flat, lots of marshy stuff there, but you could get 2 or 3 tents in I think, although maybe scattered about a bit. Looking at your video now, I will definitely opt for Fur Tor next time. The ground looks much better and those views....

Cheers - Long ime since I was in Nova Scotia - 1973 I think

Cheers - Thanx

Hi John, Yep the vernal equinox is a lot colder than the autumnal one, but it was still a good trip - I'm looking forward to your next adventure - Carol and I had a 3 day walk from Taunton up to the north coast of Somerset; which was very sucessful a few weeks back, but we stayed in pubs - its part of my research for the "Lias Way" coast to coast - cheers

Cheers Guys

Yeah - was a bit windy on the mic at times - took a bit of editing

Nicely done.

I can't see your comment and question on the site - but I had an email with your question -

Yeah! Great fun

It's do-able, have a go

Yeah! Jake pretty good at wine, but beer is his forte

Thanx for that - I have filled out the consultation -

Cheers John - Yep! It was a nice little short trip - Not so deep into the wilderness parts this time, but parts like this are steeped in history and pre-history

Yeah! A couple of years ago they had another one - An anonymous letter to the council complaining about a lady who had hung her underwear out to dry at the front of the house - Next thing you know, half the town was hanging out underwear in solidarity with her

True rebellion!

Beautiful Walk & Lovely Tour Mike .I feel as though I’m physically there. TKU!

@@luciecowan2072 well - maybe one day

Great word - I'd never come across it before - I had to look it up - I do carry nuts on their own as well

@@mikejurassic it's known as GORP (good old raisins and peanuts) in some places, or as 'trail mix'. Idea is it can be eaten dry on the move (stay hydrated as this aids digestion), or I've added milk to make it a slightly odd breakfast cereal, or added a fair sprinkling to morning portage. The name scroggin was first adopted in NZ, supposedly created from initials of the ingredients - I first heard of and used it when hiking there some years ago. It's high in everything our body needs to stay in good nick whilst hiking. Anyone can invent their own mixture - mine has peanut M&Ms, honey coated dried banana chips, raisins, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, crushed flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, pine nuts, candied orange/lemon peel. I normally snack on it, which can replace need for a mid-day lunch.

@@richardbarrett2317 Sounds great

Hi - Sorry for tardy reply - It was lost in the system somehow - I have found many of the these numbers turning up in North America and Canada - Also in Latin America, but I am not an expert in these areas - Why is the 19 at Stonehenge in a horseshoe? - Well I think often these monuments were not actualy calculators, but more a statement of knowledge i.e. - We know these numbers - We don't want to forget them - They are sacred - They are vital to the workings of the Universe - that sort of thing

Yeah! It's great - this trip was unusual for us as we normally get to the more remote parts, but this time we were on the edge so had veiws of fields in the distance - also with the hot weather it is particuarly dry for Dartmoor; which can be very boggy and normaly requires good leather walking boots - cheers

Yes - you're right - remote and mostly empty

Le Plonk Blanc

Hi - Yep I remember doing portages in canada - Great fun - some years ago now though

Mmm, that reminds me I went through the Goddard Pass some years ago - cheers
