The ROAD to RESTORATION - Charting Course S1E6
I'm really loving your journey, Infinity! I hope your sojourn in the countryside has invigorated you for the next chapter.
Another beautifully put together story in a stunning setting, even if the Cattle did force you to moo've on. 😂🤣😂 I used to find I slept very well in my truck in heavy storms. I think it's perhaps the added awareness of the elements and the appreciation of being sheltered. I very much look forward to the next installment of this series.
Infinity you brought back childhood dreams of mine loving the country side and the 70s happy travels to you
I seem to recall these being a staple if the Generation Game conveyor belt (aling with the cuddly toy of course). As a tea drinker i think these are am interesting device that has been almost forgotten. Perhaps my ultimate tea time accessory on my wish list though is a tea trolloy, just like Mums Aunti used wjen serving afternoon tea in rhe lounge.
Thanks so much for checking out so many of my videos Mark! It means a lot and it was such a great experience meeting you at Beaulieu. Loved hearing all your stories about former vehicles you've brought back to life and had over the years. It's an inspiration!🙂
That Altas is so awesome, I bet the pages smell if the 1970's. The Jump suit is next level.
Many years ago i nursed an articulated truck down from Edinburgh to Newcastle with a failing alternator. It waa a case if switching everything iff that wasn't needed and praying it would hold togerher. Grear ti see you mafe it with minutes ro spare, just as they do in Hollywood. 😅
The radio coming back to life followed by a pass, it's as though it was a sign.
There is no substitute for knowledge and experience. Great to see Micheal was abke to help tou with the carpets.
I think i recall my grandmother having a clock veey similar to that in the 1980's. That TV waa peobably my favourite item in the van wjen i saw you yesterdaty. You cant beat an old TV. I still have a 90's 14" Sony Trinitron fir playing old video games on which is essential wjen playing the old light gun ganes that dintnwork with a modern TV.
Ive found rust to be an ongoing issue, you think youve got it all but around the sils and arches it oftem comes back on older vehicles. I used to live in a truck cab fuve or sux days a week and at first it was difficult to get used to sleeping in the cab but after three years it cane naturally. The Yuasa battery was a good choice and is the sane brand that I use on my car.
Those door keys with the Renault diamond were always a nice touch, i remember my fisrt car (1988 Renault 5) having ome of those. Driving licence or not id definitely have been sleeping out in the van in the drive. 😅
Great video. I think 2020 was a year that made a lot of people take stock and look at life from a different perspective. Four years on though I doubt many are currently living the dream. It was great meeting you yesterday. Just subscribed.
I see your using a cordless drill. Your suppose to use a hand tool or corded
Why are you dressed like a 1970's reject?
I loved that. Well done! I have also loved Parsley since childhood and started collecting memorabilia over 20 years ago. I believe I have the largest collection in the UK. I spent a lot of that time trying to trace the puppets. And success, they finally discovered them I believe in Ivor Wood’s loft (at least that’s what I remember his wife telling me). I was at that first show where they popped Parsley on the table at the front of the auditorium, and I cried too. And yes, I bopped him gently on the nose even though I wasn’t supposed to touch him. I couldn’t help it. Later, they lined all the puppets up on a table and I got close and personal with them. It was one of the highlights of my life. I will never ever forget it. Like meeting an old friend. 😊
I am Parsleys number 1 fan. I have a massive memorabilia collection. And I’ve bopped him on the nose in person. 😋
I live in Weston.loved this .
Great video. Nice to see some positivity. I went on Birnbeck Pier when it was still open in the 1980s. Wish I took some photos. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Paul.
It was lovely in the 70s, as was England,but is now a sad migrant shit hole
My father, Gordon Rollings narrated & sung all the character's voices
Wow! He’s a legend!!!
Loved your video.. you got yourself a new subscriber 🎉 that Les Paul is worth a lot of money, like a lot! I mean a lot!😮
I love the poem, really beautiful.
I liked so much this video. The point of view you got from WSM and your style. Thank you!! 👏👏🌅
For those of us who remember the TV series that was a brilliant start to your post. 👍👍👍
Reginald Perrin.
Reggie Perrin plus a camper van! What great taste. Weston-super-Mare is a crazy, unique and wonderful place. Thank you for sharing this. I think a second visit would open up even more wonders.
TAOP is a very underrated show. I always preferred it over the Herbs. Great video.
This and your Weston video.. I'm on board with this kind of quirky
What a super film. Off for a stroll around Birnbeck then a big brekki. You really captured what we love about Weston ❤
Infinity, I'm a wsm immigrant from near Bath. I couldn't agree with you more. You get it. I love this place for all of the reasons you document, plus many more besides. You're so refreshing in your positivity about this place - your film brought a little moisture to my eye. Bravo. 👏
Thank you for your kind words Buzzard.. it really means a lot that this episode has resonated with so many Westonians! Really flattered that you enjoyed this so much, thanks!
Rosie + Howard Smith's book!!
thank you for this! <3
What an absolutely amazing video and even makes me feel better about the town I love.
You really captured Weston's wonderful essence. Thanks for a lovely film.

Thank you for showing a unique side of my home town.😀I love living here.There are good and bad points,like anywhere,but Weston is definitely on the up with money being spent on rejuvination,especially of Birnbeck Pier and shop fronts.😊
A very enjoyable film of Weston. Thank you
Nice to see a positive vibe and a great video, it's a marmite destination you either love or hate it, I moved to here three years ago from Bristol and have never looked back and I love living here !
That’s an awesome camper van!
26:30 I worked in that record stall with Ron, I'm the person who kept asking about the canned cocktail while I organised the records and labeled them.
Love this channel.
22:06 that one on the left is actually my mums unit!
Thank you! If I hadn’t been looking at the new signage today for Birnbeck Pier I would have missed out on this delightful film. Loved Orlando too, mine was called Jezebel.
Thanks for tuning in! Was your camper a Renault Trafic too? Ulendo is his name by the way, it's a Chichewa word for 'journey'😊
@@ChartingCourse Ulendo is a much more appropriate name. Yes my camper was a Renault Trafic. Autosleeper conversion. She was very beige. Gone but never forgotten. Have passed your video onto a few people, hoping you’ll reach a new audience!
I'm going to go visit Western Super Mare now

Well, how many places have - Super - in their name? nice video btw!
Thanks so much Ollie, glad you enjoyed it! Nice profile pic by the way. I live in the 70s, but I do have a brick phone in my collection at home😄
