Cheers John for the spelling mistake spotted. It's the bloody autocorrect YouTube uses when I type some of these videos out (via the video manager part)! I'm that much in a rush after putting over an hour each editing, I miss it! Razz

Glad you like the first one. It was a great trip and was very windy!

And that's all 3/3 of unreleased videos gone live on my MR channel while we're all on this lockdown.

My latest video. Sketchy stuff getting that footage as it's privately owned land. A Long story, but all I'll say is ducking from farmers and running over fields! Laughing

Remember, Rich, rules are there to be broken. study

Wonderful surroundings for a start.

This is a perfect video -- it says everything in two and a half minutes without repeating itself. I do like the way the music pauses briefly after the one-minute mark and resumes when you head down the (private) pathway through the (private) undergrowth.

Fascinating if chilling account at Wikipedia (your link) about Mary, Queen of Scots and her imprisonment there.

What an extraordinary structure the castle has. And what a landscape -- you're very lucky to get to such places. Wink

My latest trip was today. This only happened due to my job position at Ashby de la Zouch Castle and my Medieval Richard YouTube stuff. I received a private invite to the church, via my work email, to attended while it's closed due to Covid-19.

I give thanks to to the wonderful lady who gained me access (all in info of video).

What a wonderful gesture by Sharn! There are some good people in the world. And what a wonderful church and setting. Mr. Dunstable's splendid music adds the finishing touch.

Great video there, Rich. Now if DJ were here she'd be bound to pick out some choice detail -- probably the finger pillory.

Thanks John and couldn't agree more! Very Happy

I realize no one comes to this forum anymore.
I finally made it back to Canada in January of this year to March. And then again July - August. I drove to Ontario from North Carolina. And then from Ontario to Prince Edward Island to visit with some friends.. On the way back to Ontario I stopped in at Quebec City and saw the old part of the town which I absolutely loved! Then drove to Montreal, but wasn't overly thrilled with it, too many tourists and the old part doesn't seem as quaint as it was. Also spent a week at my uncle's cottage in Northern Ontario.
I'm always sad to come back to NC. I'm always homesick for my life that I left up there.

Hello, Ashley. It's Mr. K here. I've forgotten my password so for the moment I'm using FakeFreef's account, which I set up myself all those years ago.

There are signs that the "Bored" may be in for a restart. There are three of us who seem willing to resume posting now and again. Well -- four, including your good self.

It's late, so I'll answer your post within the next couple of days. I hope you are having an enjoyable Christmas. Smile

Mr. K
