GENERAL STUFF
I am retired from two careers of primary school teaching when I was deputy head of a Middle School and Primary School, and as a self employed Chalkboard Artist from 2002 until I reached the grand old age of 65 in 2016. Since I retired it’s like a second childhood but with more expensive toys.

I play guitar and write songs and have written about 14 songs for the local BBC radio station. I run a weekly (weakly) evening Acoustic session at a local pub and have been doing so for 14 years now. I also started an afternoon acoustic session in a quite large cafe in Nuneaton. Both premises were former songwriting clients of mine.
Much of the music I use on this channel is taken from epidemicsound.com free to use on UA-cam for a reasonable monthly fee, and sometimes I suffer you with my own music.
Gear that I use:
DJI Mavic Mini 3 Drone.
Iphone 13Pro for camera, generally front facing so I can see myself in frame. Super quality especially if I keep the lens clean.
Gimble is a Q2 Smooth by Zhiyun, I ought to use this more often because it was expensive.
Canon G7mk2
Rhode videomicro mic with iPhone (if necessary in the wind)
Rhode videomic to do voice over on computer
Video editing with Final Cut Pro X
Polarduck Mini Tripod for mobile phone. This is so good and under £10.00 I bought two.
Lamcou bendy leg tripod
Tall Tripod is a Velbon CX 540
Mono pod is a Manfrotto Compact MMC3-02 and is very useful for getting high angles that look like low flight drone shots and so easy to carry on my bike along with the mini tripod.
Money from ARTWORK SOLD will go to the MONA FOUNDATION

I am a follower of the Bahá'i Faith and some of my philosophical ideas may show through in comments that I make, but, by and large, I’ll not make direct reference to my beliefs.

I also enjoy gardening but lay no claims to have any expertise, and you might catch me out in the countryside of Warwickshire and nearby Leicestershire on a walk with my wife or on a bike ride.
Please comment below to inform further plans for my vlogs. I’d love to hear from you. If you don’t you will just get whatever bubbly ideas float to the surface of my slightly muddled elderly mind.

Great video John, a nice 8 minutes spent picking out where we've lived in the town, fascinating how garden sizes have changed over the years! Looking forward to part 2.

[@JRLNeal]

An amazing shot of my family's hometown! Never been there yet though since I live in Alberta...

[@JRLNeal]

Good to hear it was of interest

It's such a green town Nuneaton, isn't it? You don't realise until you see videos like this?

[@JRLNeal]

Very true.

[@thereisonlythecave]

I especially liked Ensors Pool and Tuttle Hill. I wonder how deep the big wet hole is. A few feet? Are there fish in it?

[@JRLNeal]

I now know it is called ‘Corner Pool’ probably not to deep and who knows what wildlife is in there. Nice to know you watched it through, my target audience was local people.

[@Aktoto1]

@@JRLNeal Im from southern Poland an im watching this. Nice place, cheers.

[@realaledrinker3733]

Locally known as corner pool

[@JRLNeal]

Thanks. I know someone would come up with something. There are two people down by the water's edge in my clip.

[@buzzindrones]

I can remember going to the corner pool as a kid loads of amazing fish in there shame it’s fenced off now .
Great footage John

[@JRLNeal]
