      Thank you. The end tune used for older vids was Eddie Townsend - Home, link: open.spotify.com/track/6KGrroQu9mPfZP6oYvAptn and the original tune used on the latest vids was kindly provided by a local artist and friend Salterszo but not released elsewhere so can't provide a link, sorry. Hope that helps👍

      It does, thanks so much. I was wondering if you’ve been to Belfast and videoed there? I’m told it’s also beautiful. I’m not a fan of big cities, I prefer coastal towns and villages, in England, my favourite place to stay is in the English Riviera, especially a beautiful working fishing harbour called Brixham, it has my heart. I’ll venture into cities if only for the history and culture, but my heart always yearns to be near the sea.

      No we haven't done major cities like Belfast, there's already a plethora of material on UA-cam by others but it's not to say we won't cover it in the future. Like yourself we try to find beautiful coastal Hamlets & villages and showcase some of the not so well known locations. Brixham and Devon are truly a beautiful place to visit @@lorrainebriggs8546 😃
