That was an excellent trip and you did it real justice, I would recommend it to anyone. I should have said on the old coastguard storage building was grade 2 listed, but engineers found it unsafe in 2020 . It was used to store the lifeboat in Victorian times and they did launch, but found it unsafe and everything went to Teignmouth and Exmouth. Eleven cottages are built above and are on the opposite side of the track, plus the officers lookout station, which you can still see today. All the real information and probably worth a read is in the Dawlish museum lol Thanks for a great trip mate, I loved it and scooby doo , Shaggy, Thelma and Fred didn’t come along 🤣

Hi Bill, What a fabulous trip. Nice of Andy to tell us about the boathouse. It's a shame that it had to be demolished. You couldn't have picked a better day for it. It's only when you see Teignmouth from the sea that you appreciate how much bigger it is going up beyond Exeter Road. Cheers mate see you tomorrow. 👍👍👍

Really nice video Bill, quite a different view. I notice near the end when the Voyager was passing that the Barrow Crossing has been removed. Big mistake! Should have left it in for when the lifts break down, and believe me, they will. Then passengers with heavy luggage or disabilities will be unable to cross the line. Just glad your boat wasn't named Titanic 😂😂😂

What a delightful little trip. I used to holiday at Maidencombe as a kid and loved climbing the rocks towards Shaldon. In fact, at low tide you could go the entire way. In later years I would do the walk from Torquay to Maidencombe and vis versa. A good experience, but a bit steep in places.

@@BillsPhoneTeignmouth Thanks very much for this. The garden of the Thatched Tavern used to be my favourite place in the world, and I have memories of having chicken in the basket in the garden and watching the lights in the houses on the hills in the area coming on as it got dark. Unfortunately, on my last visit it had gone upmarket and when I had dinner there, inside, they very clearly resented my taking up a table for two as a single diner. Fings ain't wot they used to be.

Yes, a lot of that was guess work, but I expect muscle memory played a part as well. My old phone used to give me a warning when it got too hot - Which I could ignore. This one is more proactive, and darkens the screen when it is too hot to cool itself down - Meaning I'm looking a blank screen when I film - Almost like the phone is turned off! 👍
