    I really enjoy this series having been born and brought up on the Island and visited most years until 2019. The highways I recognise easily, but some of the byways are new to me. I wonder if it is possible to add a caption on the screen when some of these remote areas are covered. I download the files to watch on my television and cannot easily access the descriptions you provide. I did admire your driving skills negotiating that awful lane to Atherfield. Thank you for your splendid efforts.

When you do your,' chasing the sun', posts, coild you actually drive to somewhere, you/we can actually see the sun going down over the ocean or land!
