Hi Alan, thanks for the comment about my vid, but I did explain that I had forgotten to bring the camera mounting bracket -hence having to drive with one hand and hold the camera with the other, only that it has a good gimbal attached it deffo would have been a lot more shaky, hopefully I'll remember it for the next time-enjoyed your Nos 1&2 vids-very relaxing especially when I'm eating my tea lol

Hi Alan, I am 79 yrs old, and was in the Fleet Air Arm at RNAS Culdrose ,Helston In the 1960's. I would be interested to know if the "Flamingos" dance halli in Redruth is still there(we knew it as Flaming Jo's. I expect it was knocked down years ago and then a new build. I really enjoy your programme, nice to see Cornwall,l but everywhere has changed except where I used to live St Ives still seems to be the same. Keep up the good work, best regards Colin.
