WALKS IN DORSET at STOKE ABBOTT & WADDON HILL

[@Clinton-p7z]

Super walk Dave through the village of Stoke Abbott. Was quite a long walk, but the views were just fabulous. Did you say that fence was electrified when you exited it, if so,don't you think there should have been a sign to say exactly that, i don't recall seeing one. Your safety matters Dave as indeed Logan's also. Thanks again Dave.😇🦮

[@susantaylor927]

Thank you Dave and Lovely Logan! Loved it all! We are refreshed from all the nature and architecture! And watching Logan.... How he loves his blackberries! 😊 Lots of smiles here!😊

[@simoncattanach1777]

All of Dave's walks with Logan are the most beautiful things I've seen!!!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Simon and indeed thanks for watching.

Good evening dave very enjoyable video i enjoyed the history but the scenery was absolutely enjoyable a really beautiful part of Dorset

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Craig. Yes, I think that the views around there are some of the best in the county - especially when the weather is good!

[@mattphillips9107]

A Sunday evening treat of Logan and Dave! Delightful 😊 thanks again ❤

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Matt. :)

[@HarryStaple]

Mr. Ford, Thank you ! My Great Great Grandfather Emanuel Staple was a mason in Stoke Abbott and built Yardley House his residence amongst other local buildings. Your tour of the countryside was truly enjoyed !

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Harry & indeed thanks for sharing your personal memories of the village.

[@ralphfeay8857]

Brilliant Dave thanks for your nice walk again. Well done Logan !! Your ‘ll be a champion soon!! Must be all those crisps!! Stunning scenery . Bless you Ralph and Sheila

[@DaveFord]

Thanks to you both. It will be Logan's last visit to Crufts next March as he will be 8 years old then! His finest moment came there back in 2018 when he came 4th in a class of 15.

[@andrewnorris2]

Lovely to see so many buildings built from local stone and not to mention the use of thatch. Yes, the views are stunning. One runs out of superlatives to describe them. Bravo to Logan.

[@DaveFord]

It is such a pretty village Andrew.

[@geoffw8565]

Stunning and beautiful landscapes Dave ! Treading the footsteps of our past !

[@DaveFord]

The views on that particular walk were amazing - especially from the top of Gerard's Hill.

[@AliBees]

A very lovely walk, beautiful scenery with a well deserved pint and crisps at the end! Well done Logan for qualifying for Crufts. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@DaveFord]

Thank you. Logan does me proud in the show ring for sure.

[@jeanblemings5352]

Loved the buildings in the village especially the dairy with the wooden shutters. Impressed with Logan's navigating skills as well - he must have sensed the road to the pub and packet of crisps was nearby. What a clever (and handsome dog - good luck for Crufts!!).

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Jean. Yep, Logan is much better at directions than me!

[@alittleworldofmyown67]

Loved it! Well done Logan & I knew exactly what decision was going to be made at the end! 😃

[@DaveFord]

The lure of that pint was just too much!

[@keithjoseph5671]

A great adventure through the English countryside with stunning views

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Keith.

[@walthamwalker]

Congratulations Logan Great picturesque walk Dave 👍👍👍

[@DaveFord]

Thank you. It is a lovely part of the county around there for sure.

[@hannureittu4310]

Nice walk, despite a little shock, many thanks Dave&Logan!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you. Yes, quite shocking!

[@markshrimpton3138]

It took you marginally longer to make the decision with regard to the pub, than it took me when offered redundancy, ie retirement. A lovely walk and once again you make Wessex look positively empty of people, which I know it’s not.

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Mark. Sounds like that was an easy decision for you to make! Hope you are enjoying your retirement.

[@richardlongmuir8348]

I knew you’d take the road😂😂😂………..looks like the weather for a thirst quencher or two!!!

[@DaveFord]

Yes indeed .... that pint couldn't come soon enough!

[@jorose6093]

Another to add to the list, thanks Dave

[@DaveFord]

It is so pretty around there & the views are stunning!

[@dannyvan5792]

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Danny.

[@melissaphillips3088]

Dave .. what a lovely walk and the cottages are spectacular to this American. It is so beautiful !! Dave do you ever tour the great estates like Mapperton? Thanks for another wonderful walk. Give Logan a big hug from me!! Have a great week .

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Melissa. Mapperton is on our list for next year!

[@melissaphillips3088]

@@DaveFord that is great Dave. It is a wonderful estate that I would love very much to see someday. I also follow them on KZbin.

[@ashlettcreek]

Hello Dave, love your walks, and am intrigued to know if you live in Dorset or Hampshire. All the best to you and Logan. Keep em coming 😅. Mike, Carole, and Gipsy (my dog, a Yorkshire terrier).

[@DaveFord]

Hello. I live in Dorset, just 800 yards away from the Hampshire border and a stones throw away from the New Forest.

[@eldred1809]

Right decision at the end Dave, getting to the pub after closing time would've been a major gaffe! Lovely weather again and beautiful countryside. Any idea what the numbers below the Stoke Abbott village sign signify?

[@DaveFord]

I believe that they are the Grid Ref Numbers for the village.

[@eldred1809]

Makes sense Dave, why didn't I think of that?

[@davidwills5339]

Hello! Love your videos! Crazy question but can you tell me the brand of cap you wear in this video please and thank you!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you David. I just get my caps from Amazon. The latest one has the description "Kangqifen Men Women Camo Flat Cap Cotton Ivy Gatsby Irish Hunting Newsboy Hat Adjustable". They are not too expensive either! Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

[@LisaStuart-u5h]

Re Logan and dog show… only 2nd??? Judge shudda gone to specsavers 🤣🤣❤️

[@DaveFord]

It was a competitive class..... I was very surprised that he did as well as he did. The trip to Crufts is something to look forward to.

[@LisaStuart-u5h]

Hope you both enjoy it… I did Crufts medical duty ( RVN) in 83 and 84. Used to time my breaks to mingle with the greyhounds and whippets❤

[@newforestexplorer]

Correct decision Dave! 😅

[@DaveFord]

It was a lovely way to end the walk!
