Hi Steve, when you were the Lifeboat headquarters I was waiting for you to look at the modern monument to the men who lost their lives saving others. You did show it on camera as you were going for your lunch. My great great Grandfather is one of the men whose name is written on the monument he lost his life with another man saving the crew of a stricken tea clipper in County Down , Ireland in 1837. The crew were saved but the coastguards My relation were tipped out of the boat as they got in. There was a poem written about their bravery and I visited Poole a couple of years ago on my way to France and stopped off to see the monument. I wished we had longer Poole is fantastic. Thank you for showing what we missed. I have to say the Fish and Chips we got in the harbour were excellent. I always enjoy your videos. Thank you .
Sorry to hear your g.g.grandfather lost his life whilst saving others! We none of us know just how many of us live by a thread connected to the past and how our ancestors actions resulted in our here & now!😊
I have lived in Poole for my entire life and I have to admit that your video made me very proud of my home town. The video has given me a whole new appreciation of Poole and for that I want to thank you ❤
Steve please don't doubt how wonderful and informative these videos are. Beautifully edited and shot. You have shown us so many unique places. Thank you
Brilliant video Steve. You seemed a bit uncertain as to the potential popularity at the end of the video but I think you can rest assured that we'll all love this as much as your other vids. Genuine passion, information, education, the sea and good weather.... You simply can't go wrong when you have those ingredients. Cheers mate.
To have witnessed the Sunderland flying boats of BOAC departing to the far reaches of the empire and the world in the 30's and 40's from Poole Harbour must have been exciting. Poole harbour is definitely one of my favourites.
I live in Canada but have siblings in Yorkshire and Northern France near Cherbourg. Was thinking I could take the chunnel and see both of them but now I'm thinking that going to Poole and taking a ferry would be a lot more fun. Thanks for some food for thought. Lovely video, as always
Very interesting to see a stranger exploring my town. Born and bred in Poole, there is some fascinating history associated with the town I could tell you about! Glad you like the old homestead.
I hadn't realised how lovely Poole was. I was curious about the Sunseeker yachts, and you can pick up a second hand one for just over £600k. We might have to double-down on these videos for a while to even afford that, what do you think? 🙂
Scott & Steve, Why don't you both team up and approach (for example) P&O Cruises. They regularly invite guest speakers onboard (free board and lodgings on a 4-7 day gig, but no pay). You two could show some excerpts from your travels and hold a couple of presentations together with a Q&A session in one of the ship's venues. With your already sizeable follower base, this would be hugely popular for both yourselves and the cruise ship passengers. No kidding, lots of much less interesting speakers invite themselves onboard. Give it some serious thought...let me know if you decide to do this, I for one would buy a cruise to see you two in action! Regards, Johnnie

This is just what you do and you do it so well. You might not know what you’re doing but neither do we, so we’re exploring together. I love it. Thanks Steve for another great video.
Must thank you again for highlighting my Airliner/ boat Model shop in West Quay Road. As your video has been mentioned and has made several sales as a result of your video.. So thanks again.
I have not commented on your vlog for a long while but I just had to today. I so enjoy waking up and having my morning coffee with a surprise video from you. Always just the perfect time to spend some time learning and exploring. You are such a treasure and I look forward to everything you put out there. Have the best week and see you soon!!! P.S. your content works very well for me. I live near the Rockies of Alberta, Canada and anything you share is exciting to me as I have never been to the Europe especially the U.K.
Indeed, She used to carry sewage from Southampton out into the Channel. Now berthed in Southampton Docks and run and maintained by an enthusiastic group.
@@danielchance2217 Not much, to be honest: Brownsea Island, Compton Acres. Rather, I'd go across the mouth of the harbour on the chain ferry at Sandbanks to access Studland, Swanage and Purbeck for dunes, safe beaches, a lingering taste of what seasides used to be, and Hardyesque big countryside respectively.
An extremely fascinating walk around a pleasant area of Dorset. Professional as ever, Steve guides with an easy style and injects a high level of enthusiasm and his obvious enjoyment is apparent !.
Believe me it's not. The harbour where Steve visited is pretty nice but it's a long way from the grim town centre. Unless you like ugly office blocks built on the seventies 😂
@@philipedwards9038 Yes, there's also a tendency to eulogise if it's a sunny day. As an ex-local (New Forest), Bournemouth, Poole, Sandbanks, Swanage and Lulworth were regular family day trips. But it's sad to realise that these places (certainly the first two) have been subject to the 'modern blight'; this affirmed in various vids on here. Correlative to their newest mission which the RNLI seemed a little shy about, you really wouldn't want to walk around there at night, especially as a lone female.
@@pierstheoneandonlyI was there pre-pandemic and the waterfront in the summer was very busy with paddlers of all kinds. Everything was very busy on a Saturday
Did not expect one of my favourite channels to feature my little hometown, seeing Steve doing one of his trademark wanders around such familiar sights was a pleasant surprise.
We had lots of holidays there when I was a kid - a scary number of decades ago. We stayed in Rockley Sands caravan park (now Haven). We used to watch the local kids jumping into the water in the harbour. And Sandbanks was our favourite beach. The houses didn't cost millions back then and had rickety wooden steps down to the sand. I always thought it would be fantastic to live in one. I loved the small marina near the caravan site. Years later, with my own family, we lived on a harbour in the Netherlands and I became the harbour master. Mum collected china from Poole Pottery on the Quay every year - I've still got a set. Really enjoyed your visit!
So glad you kept the camera rolling in Poole Steve. Lovely city. The harbour with all the beautiful ships is a dream. And the pubs looked very, very inviting!! Thank you for spoiling us with this wonderful video!
I like so much when you just wander around a place. Your enthusiasm is inspiring. Great to watch where you go! And your commentary is great to listen to as well!
Poole Quay is vastly improved since I was there last (I lived in Dorset for many years) - vibrant and colourful, lots going on. The only time I've seen a water spout was over Holes Bay. I like your natural enthusiasm that comes over well with your narration :)
Lovely video really enjoyed never seen Poole before. What a beautiful place, please go back and do another in Poole but take Alicja with you, you are great together❤
I’m so glad it was a ‘Blue Poole’ day for you in our home town. It’s easy to take it all for granted until you see it through someone else’s eyes. We’ve been here over thirty years now and I’m so glad you posted this, thank you. And please come back with Alicia, there is so much more to see close by.
Steve, welcome and glad you enjoyed your visit to my hometown, born, bred and living in Poole, its interesting to see a Scotsman's view of our port. You'd obviously heard of our "New" bridge saga, whilst the old one continues (with regular maintenance). Thanks for sharing your thoughts on your visit to our town (P.S. town not city!). Please come back again in the future. Maybe on your next visit you can spend a bit longer in the old town, and even try a pint in each of the pubs on the Quay, a great experience. I'm not so sure the trip from Poole back to Scotland will be as pleasant as your walk around our town. Remember you did get to see the "Twin sails bridge" actually open!!
Have you ever noticed how often you see people fishing off wharves and docks, but how rarely you ever see anyone catch anything? Great video - Lemon cake looked amazing!
Really enjoyed this. Never been to Poole but have been to Portsmouth. I love the South Coast of England. Brought back many memories. Thank you 🏴🇦🇺
Hi Steve, really enjoyed your tour of Poole & especially the Lifeboat College. My dad over the years collected thousands for the Lifeboats, even had me dressed up in Souwesters as a child to go collecting. He was awarded the Lifeboat Medal for his endeavours before his desth in 97. Keep up the great work. Always enjoy your Blogs!
What a surprise a smashing SM video on a Tuesday morning, so relaxing I feel like I have been to the seaside, strange but seeing boats out of the water always makes me feel a little sad, why I have no idea, but they should be on water. Again thank you.
I like all of your videos, no matter how they are presented and even if you say, you are “scrapping” and going from place to place I still enjoy them as well. They are all very interesting.
Nice to see you in our neck of the woods!! We live just along the coast at axminster devon .spent our holidays this year on the north east 250,visiting portsoy ,slaine Castle callen. And balmoral, thank you Steve. Very injoyable. So was in your neck of the woods.!!
Thanks, Steve. Perfect timing on the upload, just in time for a break. Already missing the freedom of travel, and it's only been a few weeks after the summer holidays.
Good morning Steve for a quick video great really showed the harbor but I wanted more think you should take that cruise next year your right Poole is Kool next to the tracks cheers 😘🌸🌻🌿☕️
Thank you Steve this was a wonderful tour of the waterfront, Like you I have always had a passion for boats and the sea so this was delightful. Until next time stay safe and well and cheers from Oz.
Great to see Poole looking good again in the sun. I was a CEGB apprentice at the college and power station from 1967 to 1970 recognised all the pubs, the bridge and sunseeker yachts thanks mate .
Poole does indeed look very cool. Love all those characterful pubs. Definately would love to see your good self and Alicja doing a crawl there next year. 👍
Hi Steve. Thanks for your latest gem. I've been to Dorset many years ago but didn't do Poole. Must go after seeing your brilliant video. P.S. We are just back yesterday from 4 nights in GOTHENBURG thanks to seeing your video on it. We did the South Islands two days in a row. Absolutely stunning!!! So thanks again and keep up the good work 👍 Donald
Steve, really enjoyed this video. Like you I enjoy wandering around the waterfront of various ports, towns, and cities. Poole looks like a fascinating place to spend 2 - 3 days. Keep up the great work!
Poole was an interesting bustling place to visit with you Steve. The bridges were interesting to watch opening and the luxury yachts were amazing. I liked all the models in the shop window too.💕
Excellent. The RNLI Headquarters and the railway station have come up in the world since I worked in Poole during the early 90s. ‘Shieldhall’ can go astern by herself but doesn’t steer so well. The tug is to help control direction in a restricted waterway. Hope next trip you can include the maritime museum and pottery. All brought back pleasant memories. Cheers.
Reminds me of childhood holidays in the early 90’s. Great to see the boat tours are still going strong and the town is bustling. First time we went we stayed in a Caravan in Hamworthy then in a bungalow on Sandbanks. We used to do crab fishing of the harbour wall and we did not deep sea fishing once as well. Certainly worth another video.
Thanks for this one. The picture of the Waverly brought back childhood memories for sure (I’m 78). I grew up in Swanage and spent many, many hours on Swanage pier and was allowed to assist is tying off and casting off the Embassy and the Monarch…, good times for sure
Great video as always Steve. I was born and lived in Poole until the age of 11. Changed a bit since then but still recognized a few places. The quay is a favourite. Perfect weather for you .
I live in Texas USA and I've been to Poole a couple of times on business trip. Its a cool town and I liked it.

I noticed it!
Kudos to your great great grandfather! These people are true heroes. Thanks so much for sharing his story with us.
Hi Steve Sydney is the largest natural harbour in the world, Poole is the second.
I have lived in Poole for my entire life and I have to admit that your video made me very proud of my home town. The video has given me a whole new appreciation of Poole and for that I want to thank you ❤
It is beautiful. I would love to go back in time and see what it was like in the mid 1800’s. Maybe not as nice as now.
It’s so nice to see a busy working harbour, lots going on and lots to do. 👍
Steve please don't doubt how wonderful and informative these videos are. Beautifully edited and shot. You have shown us so many unique places. Thank you
My home town.
Thanks very much for the mention of our historic steamship Steve and we hope to see you onboard next year!
Brilliant video Steve. You seemed a bit uncertain as to the potential popularity at the end of the video but I think you can rest assured that we'll all love this as much as your other vids.

Scott & Steve, Why don't you both team up and approach (for example) P&O Cruises. They regularly invite guest speakers onboard (free board and lodgings on a 4-7 day gig, but no pay). You two could show some excerpts from your travels and hold a couple of presentations together with a Q&A session in one of the ship's venues. With your already sizeable follower base, this would be hugely popular for both yourselves and the cruise ship passengers. No kidding, lots of much less interesting speakers invite themselves onboard.

This is just what you do and you do it so well. You might not know what you’re doing but neither do we, so we’re exploring together. I love it. Thanks Steve for another great video.
The sweetness and lushness of Southern England is special. A beautiful beautiful bit of world indeed! 🥰🤗
Not all of it! I've worked all along the S Coast, Poole is definitely in my top 5. Much nicer than Bournemouth imho.
I've never heard Poole described as a city before. It's definitely just a town.
Just love the randomness of what you just might find in your random walk around videos!
Hi, steve, thanks for video shot of my shop with the Airlines/boats models in west quay road. Very kind .appreciated
Must thank you again for highlighting my Airliner/ boat Model shop in West Quay Road. As your video has been mentioned and has made several sales as a result of your video.. So thanks again.
Lovely to see Shieldhall. Yes please do come and visit us (all volunteer crew) and sail the Solent with Steam. Next year will be our 70th Anniversary!
Fabulous film. 👌 Thank you. 🎉

Nice to see SS SHIELDHALL she was an effluent carrier . Hope they cleaned the tanks LOL . Another good show Steve thanks .
Indeed, She used to carry sewage from Southampton out into the Channel.
Now berthed in Southampton Docks and run and maintained by an enthusiastic group.
@@paulbaker654Yes Paul these days the water company's cut out the middle man and just dump it direct .lol .
I definitely enjoyed seeing what a beautiful and interesting town Poole is! And perfect sunny day to boot!
Definitely interested inwhat else is around there.

Steve I follow you and live in Poole, would have shown you around, you have given me so much travel inspiration
Your enthusiasm for your work makes your videos so interesting. Only a walking tour can capture a city.
Poole is a really gorgeous place, and steeped in maritime history, the pubs look great as does the weather.
Excellent tour of Poole Steve, thank you.
Poole harbour is the second largest natural harbour in the world, behind Sydney harbour.
Ahh..... but only after being dredged and artificially expanded by Sydneysiders.
Have you ever noticed how often you see people fishing off wharves and docks, but how rarely you ever see anyone catch anything? Great video - Lemon cake looked amazing!
I have driven through Poole a couple of times but never realised there were so many fantastic old pubs there. Worth another trip there I think.
I didn't know Poole was such an interesting place thanks for video
Excellent video, Steve! More like this please... 🎉
Really enjoyed this. Never been to Poole but have been to Portsmouth. I love the South Coast of England.

Great wee video again. Looked lovely and the boats were awesome. Definitely got the good weather. Some amount of pub's too.
Back in the 70s I was around Poole and Portland Bill. How somethings have changed. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
I like all of your videos, no matter how they are presented and even if you say, you are “scrapping” and going from place to place I still enjoy them as well. They are all very interesting.

Love it. Thankyou for my dose of armchair travel…Perth Western Australia ❤️🦘🇦🇺
I can only imagine your video popped up on my feed as I actually live in Poole, it was lovely to watch this :)
Thank you Steve this was a wonderful tour of the waterfront, Like you I have always had a passion for boats and the sea so this was delightful. Until next time stay safe and well and cheers from Oz.
I totally enjoyed this one. The huge boats were nice to look at, also. Thank you!
That's a beautiful town. Awesome work as always steve
Another brilliant video love your enthusiasm always uplifting
Thanks Steve 😊
Lovely place. Oh yes, take that cruise next year 😊
As you said, "Poole is definitely cool!" Thanks as always for sharing.
Fantastic video as usual ....I love Poole Steve and you showed it off beautifully👍🏻...thankyou ❤
Thanks Steve. GREAT VLOG.
Great to see Poole looking good again in the sun. I was a CEGB apprentice at the college and power station from 1967 to 1970 recognised all the pubs, the bridge and sunseeker yachts thanks mate .
Maybe rubbish is all you do - but you do it so extremly well 🙂
Love from Denmark
I loved it and Poole is on my list of places to visit now!
Poole does indeed look very cool. Love all those characterful pubs. Definately would love to see your good self and Alicja doing a crawl there next year. 👍
Hi Steve. Thanks for your latest gem. I've been to Dorset many years ago but didn't do Poole. Must go after seeing your brilliant video.
P.S. We are just back yesterday from 4 nights in GOTHENBURG thanks to seeing your video on it. We did the South Islands two days in a row. Absolutely stunning!!!
So thanks again and keep up the good work 👍

What a great video! Thanks Steve.
I love these sort of videos, as if it is me just wondering around. and the boats ! I loved it.
Fascinating! I'm glad you posted this.
Hi Steve, nice to see Poole, It has changed a lot since I was last there back in the 1960's good memories .
Steve, really enjoyed this video. Like you I enjoy wandering around the waterfront of various ports, towns, and cities. Poole looks like a fascinating place to spend 2 - 3 days. Keep up the great work!
An excellent video thanks Steve. Your presentations are a credit to you. Thoroughly enjoyable. Keep up the great work.
I originate from Poole and now live in the Scottish Borders, its lovely to see my home town looking so good, i miss the lovely beaches!
Poole was an interesting bustling place to visit with you Steve. The bridges were interesting to watch opening and the luxury yachts were amazing. I liked all the models in the shop window too.💕
Hi Steve, I am Amazed at how well you get on in places new to you! It inspires me to travel more ❤ Love Poole and the beautiful seacraft😊
Great, another early mid week adventure. Keep them coming, Steve. They are a highlight every time they drop into my YT account. Cheers.
.
I enjoyed that Steve. Thanks for showing us round Poole. Got some ideas now for a visit there.
Excellent. The RNLI Headquarters and the railway station have come up in the world since I worked in Poole during the early 90s.
‘Shieldhall’ can go astern by herself but doesn’t steer so well. The tug is to help control direction in a restricted waterway. Hope next trip you can include the maritime museum and pottery. All brought back pleasant memories. Cheers.

Poole looks like a nice place for my summer holidays. A great base to explore the surrounding area.
I thoroughly enjoyed this, just wandering around and discovering places as you go.
Thanks for this one.
The picture of the Waverly brought back childhood memories for sure (I’m 78).
I grew up in Swanage and spent many, many hours on Swanage pier and was allowed to assist is tying off and casting off the Embassy and the Monarch…, good times for sure
Great footage made Poole proud ❤
Poole looks lovely and well worth a longer visit
Great video Steve. Really enjoy your travel videos. Thank you. Steve
Thanks Steve, a wonderful wander in Poole. What a lovely place to see/visit!!
Wow I have been there ad stayed in same place great GH very good and helpful . Love the quey and water.
Great video as always Steve. I was born and lived in Poole until the age of 11. Changed a bit since then but still recognized a few places. The quay is a favourite. Perfect weather for you .
