    Brilliant! and thanks again guys. I very much enjoyed this as well. i would have commented sooner but I'm not getting the notifications of your new videos.
    it was fun to catch glimpse of the locals and at 3:27 I loved the brief montage with that catchy tune, airborne shot, the lovely water, boats, and you cruising along past the boat builders, placed all to that song was a few seconds of magic! I wished could have been much longer, and perhaps a Music video Elton, Mr. Boo and Tim's sachet of magic places, people and things wold be fun and epic.

      @@MeandMonAmi Not sure if I'm replying to Tim or Mr. Boo, or who does the editing, I understand about time. I'm sure it would be brilliant if you do.
      I finally dug up that 'Belle Époque' tune.(love it) I'm not sure if it's royalty free but I'm inspired to play around clipping some your "Belle Époque" moments for fun.
      Thanks again, you really do brighten my life with your labor of love and I appreciate it.
      Cheers!

    Loving the videos. We are happy to be returning to the South of France this summer after an absence of two years due to Covid. We go to Bormes les Mimosa which is well worth a visit, but will take you a longtime to get there I think. Keep up the good work!

    Great to watch, many thanks 👍. Sadly here in the UK, there are far too many long running public events that stopped running due to lack of funding etc (Spalding Flower Festival was one such great event that stopped about 8 years ago) and it's great to see that the Battle of the Flowers is still going strong.

    You have no idea what a tonic these videos are to me. Beautiful scenery, buildings 99% unmarred by vicious graffiti, people acting like self-controlled adults. That crowd couldn't happen in America -- there would be 15 shot and 4 killed. Isn't that awful? Keep up the medicine! Thanks.
