    My friend and I are touring Cornwall in our camper vans. Yesterday we walked down to Portloe and had a drink at The Ship Inn....what a lovely, unspoilt little place. Thank you so much for your wonderfully informative and entertaining videos.

I actually go on walks with you guys while your walkin' sad part is I was like you all over the mountains in santa barbara. I need to make a come back.hope for me that I can! K? Bye.

    Your Cornish videos just keep getting better. 1.The vicar's headstone, "Sown in corruption, raised in incorruption", is part of a well known and beautiful promise from the Bible - 1st Corinthianians 15:42. The quote and verse recognises the vicar's human sinful state, "sown in corruption" - as we all are - see Romans 3:23, however his death will not be permanent, he will be resurrected to glory ie - "raised in incorruption", 1st Corinthians 15:43. A beautiful promise for the faithful vicar and all mankind. 2. "Resurgimus". We will rise again, by resurrection from death.

    In a crazy, topsy-turvy world..... your videos are a precious nugget of tranquility, relaxation, scenic beauty and wonderful commentary. I thank you both from the bottom of my heart. My wife and I have visited Cornwall every year (sometimes twice a year) from West Yorkshire since 1998. Sadly, with the current state of affairs and higher accommodation prices, we will have to pass this year. Coverack, Coverack Bridges, Kennack Sands and Ashton have been our usual bolt holes in the county.
    Many thanks again, Rob.

Savaged by a bull ! But ended up having a baby !?!? Don't ask !!!! They were there till a few yrs back and now have vanished 😒😟

    Such an uplifting walk & video! ~ the perfect antidote to 'one of those weeks'. What a lovely surprise to see 'Broom Parc'. I watched the tv re-run of The Camomile Lawn not so long ago (its drama still survives the passage of time). I'd always wondered about the location of the house ~ what an amazing setting! The memorial to those sailors lost in the shipwreck was very moving ~ the Cornish seem always to have gallantly upheld that worthy maritime tradition of never allowing any unfortunates lost at sea to be forgotten. BTW, how vocal were those crows in Veryan churchyard!. Loved the Johnny Morris impression (doggie's voice) at the end Andrew. I'm guessing the TV prog: 'Animal Magic' will have been way before your time!

    Just returned from IOW where you couldn't go walking without being blown off the cliff by 85mph gusts! So this was a treat to watch! I remember the first video actually. I didn't realise how long I have been looking into your Cornish walks. Both doggies back in the day walking and playing together. Bless your lovely dog being lifted over the stiles & ending the vid in his inimitable style! As always, a very interesting walk with history thrown in along the way. Interesting to read some of the others' comments on here on this one. J x

    I enjoyed watching your walk around Veryan - thanks for posting. We first discovered Portloe in 1966 on our first ever visit to Cornwall, solely because it was shown in the then current AA Member’s Handbook as being a small village situated directly on the coast. Without previously booking we found B&B in a small cottage overlooking the harbour for 15/s a night. From there we discovered the beautiful sandy beaches of West Portholland and returned to the area every year thereafter. We loved the area so much, we determined we wanted to live in Cornwall and by change of careers it took us several years to accomplish. In 1979 we moved to Cornwall and brought up our young family there. All because of a random decision to visit Portloe, a remote place otherwise unknown to us because of its entry in a motorist’s handbook. In those days lots of locals in Devon and Cornwall had B&B boards displayed in their front window. Why the AA then thought it necessary to give directions to Portloe, a fishing village with very limited parking, has always puzzled me, but I’m glad it did. Incidentally 15/s is equivalent to 75 pence in today’s money.

    When you mentioned that the devil cannot hide in a corner in a round house, it reminded me that here in upstate New York where I live, there are still some old octagonal chicken houses. Apparently this shape was best for raising chicks 🐥; in rectangular houses they would sometimes crowd into corners and get smothered.

    The verse on Jeremiah Trist's stone is taken from the King James Bible: 1 Corinthians 15:42 "So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption" - A newer translation of this verse from the English Standard Version reads, 'So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable." It simply refers to the Christian belief that our human bodies were "sown" or created as mortal - we will die, but after those that trust Christ for salvation will be raised from the dead and made new in a body that will never die. - So all it shows about Jeremiah's family is what they believed, not that they were involved in anything they shouldn't have been - at least that we can't tell from the engraved verse if they were! I enjoyed your video so much and now I am a subscriber! Can't wait to watch more!

      Hi there, We did not mean to cause any offence by filming this particular house. I think your comment has given far more information about your mother's circumstances than anything we said in the video, and compromised her privacy and it leaves me concerned for her. Perhaps you would consider taking your comment down. If you can't take it down, let me know and I will do so to protect her. Whether you leave a like or dislike on the grounds of which houses we chose to film, is obviously your choice, although seems a little mean-spirited! Sarah
