Why no commentary?

[@RobsHampshirePubWalks]

I filmed this shortly after the death of HM The Queen. I thought it better to remain silent and focus on the natural sounds around us. Despite her great age it was a shock for the nation to lose the only head of state most of us have ever known. I guess I felt it was more respectful.

In the 1970s Nursling mill was used by my Venture Scout group as its headquarters. God it was cold inside even in the summer.

[@RobsHampshirePubWalks]

Ha ha even to this day scout and guide huts are too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer 😁😁😁

@@RobsHampshirePubWalks I live in Scotland now, but my brother took me past the mill a couple of years back. My, how it’s changed round there. I wonder what happened to the mill’s machinery.

[@RobsHampshirePubWalks]

It certainly has.

long live the king

[@RobsHampshirePubWalks]

Indeed and thank you.

Missed the words of wisdom Rob, did you feel like a change of style?

[@RobsHampshirePubWalks]

Thanks Peter. Not so much a change of style but I thought my prattling on would be a bit much during a time of National Mourning, much better just to listen to the flowing water and the birds 🙂
It will be interesting to see whether people prefer the videos that way though, or whether they enjoy the prattling 🙂

You keep prattling on Rob, great video
