[@oreilly1237878]

Can't beat the New Forest.Peace and serenity in abundance.Its magical.Thanks for this fine travel vlog.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you. It is a beautiful part of the country.

[@susantaylor927]

Thank you Dave and Lovely Logan!😊 That was a great walk and we really enjoyed all the nature, churches, houses and the wonderful info! Glad your voice made it through and we hope all ok now! You have such wonderful weather for your walk!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Susan. Yes, my voice is fine now!

[@rachelt-s]

I hope you are feeling better now Dave. Horrible having a sore throat and feeling under the weather. Thanks for your efforts. Beautiful day for a forest walk. 😊

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Rachel. I have had mild laryngitus for about 3 weeks but it seems to be going away now!

[@rachelt-s]

@@DaveFord oh gosh! There seems to be a lot of nasty viruses going around at the moment. Do take care of yourself. Don't overdo it. God bless you.

Happy memories, my Mother was born in "Brock" Oct 1929, Great-grandad Tom BULL was the Blacksmithy in the village in the 1930's and a small smithy in Lyndhurst. Lovely little church St Nicholas, like Downton.. must come and hug that tree..x My grandmother MAY ran the Railway Pub in 1929 with her Father, they put on the Point to point horse shows with refreshments back in the day..My Family lived next door to a member of the Mills Family, in Pikes hill.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you for sharing your lovely personal memories.

[@JimNicholls]

Another great walk, Dave, and that one really brought back memories for me. In 1962 (is that really 62 years ago - seems impossible) a young lady and I rode all the way from Worthing in Sussex to spend a few days touring the forest on my Lambretta motor scooter - not the most comfortable means of travel, but it was all we had. I especially remember the area around Brockenhurst and Boldre, and luckily we were blessed with good weather for the entire trip. A truly beautiful area!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Jim and indeed thanks for sharing your personal memories of the area.

[@craigmarsh3221]

Good afternoon Dave stunning video beautiful weather and fantastic scenery so very enjoyable to watch and chill out too 😊

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Craig. It is a lovely part of the New Forest around there.

[@TonyG-z4t]

Love the warm colours in this video, Dave. They add extra richness to the lovely countryside. Makes for even more enjoyable viewing!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Anthony.

[@walkingthewyrd]

What a beautiful day you had, Dave! And not one but two lovely churches! I'm originally from Ringwood, so The New Forest is very much home for me. Thank you!

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Nic. I know Ringwood quite well - worked there for a while (a few years ago!).

[@keithjoseph5671]

The countryside in England is Amazing with lots of trails and wonderful views

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Keith.

[@cathpeterson1944]

beautiful walk through Nature Reserve along Lymington River the forest is so enchanting, luv the old churches and manors, Logan furbaby is so adorable

[@DaveFord]

Thank you. Logan certainly enjoyed his dip in the river!

[@jeanblemings5352]

Beautiful walk. The woodland looked nice and shady and I loved the way you worked the pub in at the end!! Regarding the time taken for your videos I am sure I speak for many of your viewers to say how much we appreciate all the hours filming and research you put in to delight us. Logan is very patient too and a star in his own right!!!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Jean. It would have been a shame not to have included a visit to The Snakecatcher ..... although it was very, very busy there!

[@paulphilby3650]

A great video loved watching it hopefully you feel better big hug too Logan I have wonderful memories off the new forest It’s a perfect time what with so many wonderful colors Keep doing what you do 💙🇬🇧💙

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Paul. Springtime in the New Forest can be quite magical at times.

[@ianmccaughan7121]

Great video Dave .Interesting history and beautiful places 😍.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Ian.

[@LynnB_Ky]

What a lovely walk Dave on such a beautiful day too. The countryside looked stunning and you came across some wonderful properties the churches along the way. I loved seeing all the deer, what a treat. It's made me want to walk the river, which you mentioned you filmed, and I'm going to try and find your video of it. Thanks for sharing this with us all Dave 🥰

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Lynn. There certainly seem to be a lot more Deer about in the New Forest these days when compared to only a few years ago.

[@LynnB_Ky]

@@DaveFord Lovely to see Dave. I think I've found the video. I shall watch tomorrow 🥰

[@davidpriddle9236]

Many thanks for the memories - we did the first part of that walk from St Nicholas' Church to Dawkins Bottom a number of times during our 5 year stay in New Milton. Sometimes just to see the bluebells. Many thanks again - btw Lemon and Honey is good too.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you David. Glad that the video brought back some lovely memories for you. Thanks for watching.

[@ralphfeay8857]

Picked up your great videos again Dave.Yes was a glorious day on 1st of may. Very familiar territory for us .Was great to relive the area again! Hope your throat is now all better. God bless from Ralph and Sheila. Ps:great to see Logan going in for a dog dip again!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you both - yes, my throat is much better now. Logan does like a dip - provided the water isn't too cold!

[@michaelfinch2937]

What rich colors you've captured! Marvelous.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Michael. I have just upgraded my computer from a Lenovo (Windows 10 & 8G RAM) to an Acer Swift 14 (Windows 11 & 16G RAM). It seems to default to quite vivid colours (particularly the "greens") in the edit..... I am still trying to get to grips with it!

[@martincannon1078]

Hello Dave at 2.40 in the church I thought you were going to say down here on the left is the... SNOOKER TABLE! That would have been a hoot in a church. Snookered! Hope the throat get's better

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Martin. The throat doesn't actually hurt but is more of an inconvenience than anything else. Annoying , as with the recent good weather I have been more active out filming so it has affected 4 videos so far! I think that I have nearly shifted it though .... after nearly three weeks!

[@hannureittu4310]

Dave&Logan, thanks for this beautiful story!

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Hannu. :)

[@eldred1809]

Well done for soldiering-on Dave, that pint at the end is certainly the best remedy! Your walk to Boldre brought back memories for me. When my partner lived in Wimborne we would often drive out to Boldre and Pilley of a weekend summer evening to take in either the Red Lion or the Fleur De Lys, or maybe both 😋. Both provided excellent ales and food. Hope your throat (well-oiled) has improved.

[@DaveFord]

Both the Red Lion & Fleur De Lys are both fine pubs to visit for sure.

[@markshrimpton3138]

April and May are my favourite months of the year Dave. It’s always interested me how you manage to give the appearance that the south of England is deserted during your walks!

[@DaveFord]

Being the Saturday of the early May Bank Holiday weekend, it was fairly "busy" that day ..... there was a lot of "hanging around" waiting for folk to walk on by! But everyone was happy & friendly - making it a lovely walk.

[@AnyoneForToast]

Astonishing colours in this one Mr Logan, it must have been that special summer sunlight that you organised, to help out yer mate Dave with his camera work...

[@DaveFord]

It was great to be able to get out and film in sunshine, after all of that recent rain that we have had!

[@lynnesears6254]

Very nice. Thank you

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Lynne. :)

[@Doobeedoo-xd1mw]
