Just out of curiosity, how do you get your drone footage on these videos?

@@AllenBrosowsky On this one the drone is the HoverAir X1. It’s a “selfie drone” that can be instructed to follow you from either behind or in front, or do a circle round you, but it’s not a proper drone. It’s great in that it fold up and fits in your pocket. Also because it just tracks a person, it doesn’t have GPS or the need to connect to satellites, so it’s extremely quick to be ready to film - about 5 seconds! For higher shots, or drone shots without me in the shot (or much further away) I have the old DJI Spark drone (now discontinued. The DJI mini drone is the much improved equivalent. I don’t yet have one of those!).

I think I either read it somewhere or I was told that the wide grass verge along union Road in front of the workhouse was a moat. Apparently it was to keep the people from escaping. Do you know anything about this?

@@AllenBrosowsky I think that’s an urban myth. As I understand it, people were free to leave the workhouse if they wanted (homeless men sometimes just spent the winter months there for shelter) but most inmates really had nowhere else to go. The workhouse was the place of last resort. Leaving would have made life even worse for most people. It wasn’t a prison, though once you moved in, the regime was very prison like for sure.

I am a new follower of your videos. I find them very fascinating. It astonishes me how things are slipping away. Before it closed I used to go to the Unicorn. I lived on Bridge street for a couple years. Oh BTW, I'm a U.S. citizen currently living in Stowmarket.

@@AllenBrosowsky It’s true. Things do slip away quickly. At some point I hope to do a video of where I grew up in Manchester. Definitely most of that has gone, including my childhood home. I too remember having a drink in the unicorn before it closed. You’ve wandered far from your home then, much further than me! 🇺🇸

I enjoy all your videos but i did think at the start of this one that i probably wouldn't get too far in before bailing out but i watched the whole thing and i can't tell you how much i enjoyed it. A lot of it reminded me of myself in as much as i do a lot of diy and gardening and all that entails but it reminded me i dont get out and about anywhere near enough and that's something i need to put right. My word, don't ever stop doing all that you do, and especially don't stop filming it all and sharing the results with us all. One of my videos of the year !

Hello again Don! Yes caffine, I had a friend who had a heart attack! Eventually he was going to be given a Bypass! He was wheeled into the Operating theatre in John Radcliffe hospital and the Surgeon had a little chat with him. Asked him by the by, how many coffees he drank ( we used to work 12 hour nights ) When he told him 6 or 7 , his response was from Now on one is plenty. After that he asked him what music he liked , he said he didn't mind Queen and that the last thing he remembered was Queen blaring out and hearing Drs and Nurses feet tapping to it ! I'm not anti-coffee, just don't drink it, a Tea in the Morning is my limit
