Episode 46 Swanning About In Worcester

Tales From The Swan’s Neck spent a couple of weeks in Worcester, one of Britain’s oldest cities. This episode is rather different to the usual format and includes a tour of Worcester from the River Severn, a look into the Battle of Worcester during the English Civil War, and scenes of the amazing array of historic buildings Worcester has to offer.

Many thanks, pleased you enjoyed it

[@NogginMelodeon]

I see it's 2 years today since Episode 1. Happy anniversary.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Well spotted John, to be honest I had no idea...

[@mfuller1093]

Great vlog Andrew, scenic relaxing cruise without over the top narration and a very concise history section. Thank you.

[@lorrainerichardson3280]

Thanks for the tour and the relax. Love the history, it gives me a sense of our lives being but a second in the overall scheme of things both looking back and forward.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Lorraine. It did feel odd at times thinking that Charles ll's eyes had seen the same thing that I was seeing, or that 350 years ago bodies would have been dead or wounded in those fields.

[@bryanmitchell1059]

thank you for sharing the river cruise and the tour of Worcester. Love the history and the architecture. Bryan & Donna, Quebec, Canada

[@AhmedKhoga]

thank you

[@lionelmarytravels6003]

Wonderful river cruise, with those early morning shots and nighttime ones especially good. You covered the history of the place in great detail and this I enjoyed.. The walk showing us the beautiful buildings was much appreciated. Thank you so much for for sharing with us.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Pleasure Lionel.

[@robertastanger9983]

Oh my, what a lovely vlog. Tran quility and history all in one. Most vlogers just pass thru an area and discribe it without showing or explaining anything. You are a great narrator. Thank you.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Wow, thank you Roberta.

[@Tony-nn3gl]

Stay safe and be lucky, mate.

[@annie2950]

Hi Andrew very enjoyable vlog as ever. Thanks. Hope your keeping well.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

I'm all fine and dandy thanks Annie. I hope things in Oz are good too

[@alistairball2736]

Cheers Andrew…enjoyed the history lesson…thank you

[@robertpearse9952]

Very enjoyable with great photography as always.

[@djsoulUK]

Excellent, thanks Andrew.

[@alisonhampshire3081]

Hi Andrew another truly beautiful Vlog with the usual high standard videography. That music went so well with it it was pretty medatitive. Worcester looks like a stunning city and I loved the history you added to it. Thanks so much, looking forward to the next one. Alison

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Alison, glad you liked the music too, I thought it helped with the relaxation.

[@elinaranes4357]

Very soothing and relaxing

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Glad you think so Elina

[@rogermcd9918]

Great vlog as always mate, didn't actually realise Worcester was that old. Take care

[@jamesfblaisjr]

Kudos for placing your bow camera close to the water and without the (lazy, almost obligatory inclusion of the) bow in the frame.
Your pro photo eye makes for beautifully shot and enjoyable vlogs.
Thanks for that keen eye detail.
Cheers.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks James.

[@johndashwood7671]

I enjoyed that. Well done. Make more like that the next time we get locked down.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Oh I don't need to be locked down to make those John.

[@Tony-nn3gl]

Hi, Andrew, an excellent video.

[@yeoldfart8762]

As always a great show. That’s a bunch of swans. We have swans here but hardly ever see more that one pair at a time. I need to get myself on a river.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Skip. Quite a bevy of Swans here in Stratford-upon-Avon too. Hope all that snow has melted now!

[@yeoldfart8762]

@@talesfromtheswansneck the snow is gone this low in elevation. The garden will get planted this coming week. I’ve got some concrete footings to put in. Well the list of projects be way to long to list here. You Narrow boaters have the right idea.

[@stevewrissy9748]

What a great relaxing and informative video, your filming is amazing, I would like to see more like that when you visit these special places.Thank you

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Steve. Yes I'll try to include some of the towns, cities, and villages a bit more. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@glenbates9460]

Fantastic photography really enjoy it. I must say the the motor curser in the early part of the vlog with all of the fenders hanging on while it was moving looks very un-seamen like.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Haha yeah, I know what you mean. Maybe they think it will protect from narrowboat attack!

[@mrpatrickwilson1]

Nicely done sir. Thank you.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Glad you liked it!

[@nw3803]

Great vlog, investing history, Cheers, Nigel

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

[@chrisfigiel1150]

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Chris

[@sa9861]

Fabulous filming, as always ~
And very enjoyable; loved going around the City; and always interesting to learn more about the history of England.

[@pilpelet100]

Thanks for sharing - and for the history lesson. Very enjoyable.

[@motorhomenarrowboat1]

What a beautiful city. Love the history as always entertaining. Thank you for sharing your journeys.

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Thomas. I had never been to Worcester before so I was taken by how beautiful and historic it was.

[@lynettecoates4272]

Really interesting historical vlog... never been here but definitely one for our list to visit!! Stunning old buildings.... did u go in the cathedral?? We live near part of The Monarch Way but never realised the tale behind it. Thanks for the narration. X

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Lynette. It's worth a visit. Didn't go inside the Cathedral, I'm not sure it was open actually. The Monarchs Way is an odd one, not exactly a direct route. I was walking yesterday evening in Stratford-upon-Avon and came across the Monarchs Way here too.

[@naughtysquirrellyndatee96]

Wow!! That’s the most Swans I’ve ever seen in one place.. glorious... hope they’re not as messy as Canadian Geese... wonderful vlog...thanks, so much, for sharing a bit of the history💜

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

Thanks Lynda. Lots of swans and Canada geese here in Stratford-upon-Avon. Errrr... quite a bit of mess too!

[@marsexpresschipper7915]

Great vlog & a nice tour of Worcester, did you get to see the LEA & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce factory or is it closed due to covid?

[@talesfromtheswansneck]

I didn't see the Lea & Perrins factory no, but I guess it was probably closed at the time.
