    You don’t actual walk two miles an hour. You film a walking program full of entertaining and historical facts. Basically a cameraman, director, producer and onscreen talent moving at an incredible pace of two miles an hour. Very bloody impressive in my opinion.

    I really love the way that fields look like that in the wind and clouds. So lovely. I love the way that those energy windmills look when they spin. Not sure why. And like the big tall signal towers that are real thin and have a light at the top. And a really nice cityscape agaisnt a sunset.

    Rewatching because that’s what you do when you binge watch a series. Fun for the whole family...but no fun for Marek, which is why you giggle while watching. 😏😆👍😎

    There once was a poet named Sparsely.
    Who often enjoyed sprigs of parsley.
    He walked the South Downs
    And spent thirty pounds
    But regarded no benches quite harshly.

    The chalk "ball" that you met at 7:38 was a "sculpture" (!) by Andy Goldsworthy. There are 13 of these "chalk balls" on the 5 mile "Chalk Stone Trail" that runs from Bepton to West Dean. It is a shame that there are no info boards explaining to folk what they are.

    • @cdwc
      @cdwc  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Excellent. Thanks Dave, I was dying to know what it was. They should definitely put an information board there. I was imagining cavemen rolling it down a hill.

    Laying down in the grass directly underneath an electric pylon and watching the clouds move overhead is not only beautiful (especially if you hear the electric buzz in the background) but also a tad weird as you feel like you are going to fall up into the sky.

    Great Walk and video Marek, I'm sad i've only just found out about Trig Bagging, i'd love to bag a trig. a little tip on blisters, i carry some duct tape (wrapped on an old credit card type card) to put over plasters on blisters, worked bloody great.
    I also agree on the pylons making me think of giants.
