Winterton will always have a special corner of my heart. Moved here in 1983 in a thatched house opposite the Fishermans return. It wasnt as friendly back then, new folk were not accepted easily. However I loved the village. Still in Norfolk , its wonderful x ❤

Hi Jack. We live in Ashford but Wye is the best village in Kent. You should visit the Farmers Market, every first and third Saturday of the month. The Flying Horse is literally our favourite pub, nickname " The Fly". Especially in winter sitting next to the open fire. The Joshan indian is fab as well.The village was nearly bulldozed in early 2000s...a group saved it. And a guy called David Hewson spearheaded it. Read " Saved " by him. Great video Jack. Bill Barrett.😊

I like the tip of giving the tip on where to park, Broadstairs within the Isle of Thanet is one of the best coastal towns, don't get me wrong, Ramsgate and Margate are also good.

I have to disagree about Ramsgate it used to be a highly regarded place to visit, I lived there for 12 years and when I moved there it was a vibrant little town to be in, unfortunately there’s a dark underbelly around the town centre because of the drug and alcohol addicts frequenting around the shopping area, I moved further down the coast where it’s a bit cleaner and less crowded, I must say that the Brassiere at end of the harbour is a very pleasant restaurant, where you said is industrial just a little further is another beach usually frequented by wind/kite surfers which is fine but it’s usually debris infested during the summer months by illegal campers, such a shame that it has declined so much and it has so much crime.

13:21 you probably didn't realise but that tunnel was the last journey on land made by Lord Nelson as he approached his launch to take him to HMS Victory in 1805. I'm Portsmouth born and bred, so am fully qualified to assess. Most of it now is a dump. Everyone posts videos and pictures of Southsea which is about 10% of the Island. The shopping centres (apart from Gunwharf which is surprise surprise… in Southsea) are abandoned, boarded up and covered in graffiti. Go visit the middle of Portsmouth, North End and Commercial Rd and you'll have a different view. It's not me hating on my old city, it's me hating on what it's become. The City Council should be ashamed, but they plough any money into the University and the Tourist areas. (i.e. Southsea)
