In 1968, at age 14, I spent about two weeks in early summer in and around Sidmouth. The movie theater was showing "Thoroughly Modern Millie". The sea water was a bit cold for swimming. And then days of rain came in, enough to cause the river to flood a little in the town and enough to bring down a landslide onto the beach from the high ground east of town. Probably Sidmouth has grown since I was there. Interesting to see it from the air.
Ooops! Sorry Devon, my bad. Thank you very much @vern1588 for flagging that, I will put it right straight away. I've filmed so much in Dorset that writing it seems to have become force of habit.
@@vern1588 It's one of my favourite places and I'm pleased to say I'll be back there in September to make another contribution to the local economy and get a better street level 'walk about' video I hope.

Um .... Sidmouth is in Devon, not Dorset!

No worries 😅 It's my home town. Great video though.
