    Well, you're making me homesick again, should I say, sick of this home. Trips to Kidlington were our weekend Sainsbury grocery fix, which pulled us together and made us one again after a week of work and school. Loved it, miss it dearly. The kids have all gone, the wife stays home so I can spend my money at Pak n Save buying the wrong items, no fun any more. I miss the memories of life in the UK, but I'm scared that if I came back, would the memories still be there. I look at your amazing sunny day, and compare it to ours. Ours is also sunny with blue skies, but struggling to find a high of 10deg cent. I smile at your sunny day, but regret ours. I wonder about your ties with the Churchill Hospital, checked on google maps and suspect I must have driven past it without knowing what it was. It's huge. Crikey, I've turned into a grumpy old man. Thanks, and take care.

Listening to your idea's for future vlogs is exciting, I would love to go through Sainsbury's to compare with with my 20yr old memory. Bicester is so much more than the memory I have, now we've got to visit Oxford, oh, and of course 26 Hart Synnot House in Leckford Rd, brilliant. Sorry, sort of lost it for a second. You might need a name now? Thanks, and take care.

    I went to google maps to find where we were, Ovingdean looks like it could be a popular summer retreat, with farming still a mainstay in the area. I zoomed in on some paddocks used for cows and noticed what looked like snow had collected along the fence lines. Surely not that far south and along the coast. It sent a shiver down my back and put a smile on my face, 5am xmas day, couldn't sleep even with all the windows open because of the humid heat. Thanks for the drive, Merry Christmas and take care.

    A wet road, a setting sun, but a cloudless blue sky with a slight haze of pollutants. I've been to Bournemouth before but no memories came flashing back. I remember in 2002 or 3, speed cameras had to be obvious and painted bright yellow or was it orange in the UK. They already had the speed indicator lines painted in white on the road that warned of their existence. In NZ there were no such warning lines, and the cameras were disguised, or hidden away in a nondescript vehicle parked on the side of the road. I did notice your slight speed reduction when approaching one and thought, ok they do work, for a hundred yards or so, but. Over here you'd get a letter in the mail indicating your fine and your demerit points tally. It's always nice to go for a cruise in your car, it'd be great if you had the family with you and you just added the vocals to the video, I always drive alone nowadays but fondly remember earlier times. I'm sure you'll put up more vlogs before xmas, but just in case, Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks, and take care.

    An interesting trip, checked Gatwick on google maps, miles away from where I thought. The M25 took forever only because I'd only been on the northern section following not a shortcut instructions to get to WingYip in Cricklewood. The M40 still has plenty of memories. Your music selection was excellent, but I enjoyed the chatter on the last trip more. It's been more than 40yrs since I had a conversation with my daughter when she sounded like that. Thanks for the memories, and take care.

    Another murky old day. So typical and I loved it. We don't get constant rain while driving over here, it's patchy, suspect it's because of the hills.
