I am much more in favour of charity shops than fast fashion shops. It is great to buy pre-loved second- hand clothes rather than cause more and more clothes to be bought, worn twice and then sent to landfill sites. Lovely to see you out and about on carefully selected days without whinging about the winter weather!🚙

Except they aren't going to landfill sites, they are going to charity shops. If no clothes were bought new, worn twice and 'thrown out' (ie donated), charity shops wouldn't have any to sell! :-)

What is the name of it Ken? In Waterford there was a coal merchant used a ship made of Cement to bring coal from I think Wales years ago. I believe it was built to sink in German-controlled ports.

From Australia. Many thanks for the video, and previous ones. Interesting to see how you fare with the restrictions on parking, very much like here particularly on the coast where councils etc tend to be very officious regarding overnight stays. And your battles with inclement weather, we've had an atrocious summer with disastrous flooding in many locations. Have made many trips to Britain over the years, have stayed in many places from run-down BnB's to very comfortable modern hotels, but never really roughed in the open. You handle it very well and your design of camper is excellent for the narrow roads, the larger ones would be a nightmare, especially in Cornwall which is hard enough to handle in a small car. Have never been to Bognor, but wasn't it the place referred to often by the one and only Albert Steptoe? Keep the videos going, doesn't matter one whit to me that you don't edit them and put them on youtube till sometime later.

Hi David. We have heard about the flooding in Australia, you have had it bad this summer.

We use several SD hard drives to transfer video from memory cards and I have several memory cards as well so when one is full it gets stored and a fresh one is used to continue. This gives me 2 backups. An SD drive has no moving parts so they are more robust than a normal hard drive. As you use your phone you would need to ensure the drive works with it. The secret is to understand the shots you need to tell the story and only shoot with intent - I.e. things that are interesting. Most people shoot everything but that creates a lot of work when it comes to doing the edit. You can practice film making in your head you know. Pick any attraction near to where you live and imagine the video playing that you would make. It helps to start the mind thinking in clips that actually support the story. Once you have enough to tell the story you can stop shooting. The rule in video is if you mention it you must show it 😁👍. I can;t stand videos where people tell you all the things they have done and there is not a single shot to support the story 😁

Here in the U.S. it is also mostly illegal to sleep overnight in a van and my question is this, where is the crime in that?

We can see no harm if you are not parked near anyone’s property, cause no disturbance and leave no trace.

A great video with some lovely photography and I’m so glad that you seem to have dodged the rain! I think your decision not to edit when you travel is a good one. I certainly don’t mind that the content takes a while because you always post videos regularly so it really makes no difference to my enjoyment if your channel. Thanks again for sharing a really interesting video.

Thanks Sylvia. We were lucky to get a few days of continuous sunshine in January and fortunately we could just pack the little red camper and go 😀👍

Hi Carol and Ken from a glorious West Sussex and has been for the last 2 days. I think that the person or persons who wrote the new Highway Code are obviously non drivers especially having to give way at dangerous places! On the suject of Sir Billy Butlin when we were in Jersey quite a few years ago we managed to find his grave it is quite impressive and worth visiting. En route to the famous grave I had to stop, in our hired Toyota MR2, a lady driver who driving along with her rear door open. She was completely unaware, not DIC. Regards Crawford

Just discovered your travelogue, enjoying your Sussex adventures. My grandfather, 2 greatuncles & 2 of my aunties lived in Bognor Regis from early 1950s after moving from Sefter Farm in 1943 and lived at Westerton.

Hari Om OH don't get me started on tradesman who seem not to want one's business... Yeah, definitely good to take in the trip for your own pleasure then share it at leisure. What's the hurry some folk seem to have?! Now I am hungry watching all your munchings... tea time! YAM xx

Thanks YAM. Thankfully our roof is now fixed but why does it have to be so hard to find good trades people these days? 🙂

Hi Carol and Ken . I’ve been trying to find your post from a while back where you had a tear in your pop top mesh . I remember Carol trying to stitch it but how did you get it resolved in the end ? I have a two year old Manhattan from Sussex Campervans . Sorry for the off topic question but I don’t know if you are on social media anywhere to be able to ask the question .

Hi. We were contacted by Sussex Campervans who said there had been a fault with our particular type of mesh where it corroded due to sunlight. This resulted in a whole new tent being fitted and a plastic window instead of the mesh. To be honest we prefer the plastic. I recommend contacting them and seeing if yours has the same issue. 👍

Cant argue with you ken, its only when you do walk down any main street from the north of Scotland to the south of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, do you realise the decline in this country , very sad !!!
