I moved there in 1963, aged 3 months and left for London (and then the US) in 1983. My mother was the mayor in the mid 90s. It will always be my old home town where nothing ever seems to change!
You say filmed on a 'Quiet Sunday morning' ... I think NOT. As you approach 'The Jack Phillips' a Stagecoach bus on route 46 passes you - it doesn't run on Sundays and further down there are people waiting for a bus, again hardly any buses on a Sunday. Just past the bus stop the post Office is open, again doesn't on a Sunday!
Ah, someone who reads the description! :) We love helpful and thoughtful comments like these. No doubt you're right, we were there a couple of days and it's easy to forget whether it was the Saturday or the Sunday a particular bit of footage was filmed. Thank you @devongeneral6359 - feel free to correct us anytime 👍
Yes, yes, yes! Love it, love it, love it! But, where is everyone? Hardly any people. Exceedingly clean and tidy. The extreme closeness of the buildings to the street and very, very narrow sidewalks remind me of Japan. Thank you!!!! Excellent.
Hello Steven, a pleasure to hear from you. How interesting to see similarities to Japan in the narrow streets, I can see where you're coming from with that. Being a Sunday afternoon it was quieter than usual and the shops were closed being a Sunday too? Where are you from BTW? Greetings from a chilly UK.
@@LivingWalks I'm in the mountains of North Georgia, USA, in a little town of 3k folks. BTW: Did you see the latest survey from the EU naming Madeira the number one holiday destination for the EU? Ha! And I have saved every one of your Madeira videos! 👍
Hiya Steven, ah interesting to hear that. It's the thing we enjoy most about YT, the connecting with folk such as yourself from far and wide. Oh I didn't know that about Madeira but I'm not surprised. I hope you get to visit for real someday. We'll be back again next Friday BTW, so plenty more of the Island to bring to you if you fancy adding a few more meanders to your growing list!! All the best to you pal.
What a nice town. Wow! Poor rabbits. I like towns that are primarily for walking. Not too many parked cars. Our downtown area is bumper to bumper parked cars with a lot of traffic. Thank you for the tour.
Hiya HD, yes it can be the same here in so many towns, so this was a pleasure to walk in a town without parked cars. Ha ha, ye those rabbits... the mind boggles eh!
What a beautiful cityscape! The image quality is also the best! Thank you for the wonderful video! I'm looking forward to the next video! Subscribed to the channel 👍 from Japan🗻
Thank you very much! I've been enjoying your footage of Tokyo lit up for Christmas. I've been to Osaka and the Nakasendo train but never to Tokyo. So thanks for introducing the streets to me. Hope to stay in touch fellow walker.
Ah yes, a pricey place to live indeed. This was our first visit and we were surprised how compact the town was. It made for a pleasant meander. Thanks for dropping by fellow traveler.
This is a very pleasant city! There are quite wide sidewalks here, but, unfortunately, even in spite of the rain, the streets are crowded with people... It was pleasant to hear birdsong, but the noise of the city crowd drowned out their beautiful singing... Where the birds themselves were, remained a mystery to me. But the fact that they sang perfectly that day is true! 🦜😀👍 Perhaps it would be nice to walk through the streets of this city in the early morning, say at 6 o'clock. However, even at 6 o'clock in the morning, restless citizens are probably scurrying through the streets of this city... 🏃♂️🏃🏃♀️🏃🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃♀️ Thanks a lot for this great video! 📹🤠👍
Hi fellow walker, a pleasure to hear from you. Yes, it would be nice to walk through the streets in the early morning, if I were such an early riser!! Good to be connected, hope to stay in contact.
@@LivingWalks It's great to be a walker! I wish we were able to do this for many more years 🙂 If I shall not be able to walk, then at least I'll go to your channel and comment on something there 🙂
Walked them streets today! The church close by have the hanging post! Where they used to hang crimals on the hill.....it has the marks of the rope where they hung to death!! Very interesting place indeed. I have a book on historic murders in godalming! I can walk the streets and no exactly where they took place! It's fascinating knowing the present occupants probably have no idea......
I've just noticed the caption regarding the maidservant who hoaxed the town into believing she had given birth to rabbits!!
Ah yes MA, it seems there's more to sedate Godalming than meets the eye!
@@LivingWalks Ha ha, I can't believe what she did was humanly possible!! That's impressive.
@@relaxbreathesleep1127 I'll say so!!
Do pop by with any comments about Godalming, or the channel in general, we enjoy hearing from you and will always take tome to reply.
Thanks LW, you do pick interesting and lovely places to walk.

Thanks for taking the time to drop by, I hope you enjoyed walking alongside us and it brought back a happy memory or two. All the best to you.
Ah that was sooooo relaxing, I love the slight sound of rain on your umbrella too.
Hi there RBS, how nice to hear you enjoyed it and even picked up the rain sound. Thanks for taking the time to drop by.
Godalming has a great history and i learn about it in your video. 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it and to bring it's little bit of history to you friend.
It's interesting to get to know a bit more about the town through the captions, I like that addition!
Thanks for the feedback MA, we'll prob' continue the captions if enough people like that!

I enjoyed this very much. It's great to be able to see the world thru your eyes. What a privilege. Thank you. : )
You're welcome friend. Hope all's well in Singapore. Are you still rain walking?
This was a lovely walkabout, love Godalming....thank you for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it Christine, it's our pleasure!
Yes, yes, yes!
Love it, love it, love it!
But, where is everyone?
Hardly any people.
Exceedingly clean and tidy.

Thanks for walking with us.
I like the concept and composition of the video. Your video tell a story which even million words wont be able to express this beautifully.’.....
Thank you so much friends!
Thanks for your beautiful video, how beautiful the architecture was
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for visiting Saeid.

Beautiful place. No wonder it's got a very high rate for properties. If only I have plenty of money, will surely move there.

I lived in Godalming from. 1953 to. 1973. went to the [bell school], moss lane nice to see a video of it, live now in the Netherlands
Hope this brought back a good memory or two John, but how very nice for you to reside in the Netherlands.
Very beautiful Walk in the streets of UK. Amazing video 😊
Hello there S.T, so pleased you enjoyed it. How are things for you in Munich, hope you're doing OK.
@@LivingWalks I am doing good but here's lockdown for unvaccinated people. Thank you 😊
Ah yes we heard that. I do hope things will start looking up for us all soon. All the best to you.
