Beautiful area of Sussex, which many people don’t know about. The ecology of the Widewater Lagoon is very interesting. I’m a member of the Friend’s of Widewater and before Covid-19 an ecologist took a group of us on a fascinating guided walk 💚
How fascinating! I have been walking dogs here now and then for years, and knew nothing of the history of the lagoon or the occupation of the seafront in the years leading up to WW2. Thanks Richard! p.s. When are we going to see some footage from Martin's new toy?
I'm sure you know Richard but the Norfolk suspension bridge which was demolished was the model for the famous Szechenyi bridge in Budapest, the first bridge over the Danube. Hard to think that any other country would have allowed such a splendid historically significant building to be destroyed.
I AM GLAD YOU LIKE MY COMMENTS ON YOUR WALKS WELL IT IS LIKE ..THIS IS YOUR LIFE TONY , I LOVE IT . THAT LAGOON , WELL I THOUGHT AFTER 50 YEARS , WHEN I LAST SAW IT THEY WOULD HAVE MADE SOMETHING OUT OF IT , WHERE I LIVE THERE ARE MAN MADE CANALS , SOME , LIKE VENICE , BEAUTIFUL .
I did this walk for the first time today. Wish I seen this before. Thanks for the gems for a future walk.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you to you Richard and Martin, that video was brilliant, it was so lovely to see the sea , and hear the sound of the shingle as you walked along
Yes - living by the sea has it's rewards. Glad you enjoyed it.

Very impressed by the Norfolk bridge. Thank goodness Martin found some orange cold weather gear.
He has a wardrobe for every occasion - in orange!
Chalrts were all along Essex Coast St Osyth and quite substantial chalets and on seaward side of seawall all gone now...
Another fascinating video, many thanks to you both!
Thanks Mark - we try! :)

Yes - I am waiting for the results of his new toy - it sounds promising.

I didn't know that - but I totally agree with your sentiment - we seem to take pleasure in destroying all beauty in the landscape.
Great was only there the other day admiring the views .was good to hear some history on it
thumbs up.

Always lovely to hear from you.
I've been there!
A lovely place!
Not a very safe place to start your film Richard! but most interesting anyway.
I was on the traffic island luckily and avoided the rush of commuters. :) Thanks so much for watching.
lol Martin's all for a dip
He sure is!
Did the German bombers ever do any damage to that area?
That I don't know - I don't think so.
