    I've been watching a lot of your content! I started by watching one of your magic tricks, and moved on to all these videos about Calne! I live in the states, but I hope to visit Calne when I travel to England! Love the videos! Look forward to the next ones!

      Hi SnarkyJay. Thanks for your comments. Interesting that you mention originally seeing one of my magic videos. Actually most of my published videos are magic related but not available to be seen by the public as they contain trade secrets. They are on UA-cam as ‘Unlisted’ and can only be seen by having the correct link.
      I don’t get out & about making videos in Calne much these days as age and mobility are getting at me. I manage the occasional one. However, my friend Janet takes several and I edit and produce these for her and these are on her UA-cam channel.
      Calne is very nice now having got over a long period when the town centre was derelict due to the demolition of the very large Harris meat factory. We’ve come a long way since then and we are a quite smart little town so I hope you do visit us.
      Best wishes. Pete.

    A nice overview of the day and a well filmed and narrated vid. Well done to the pair of you. I gather from the way you comment you're not a Biker so it's nice to hear enthusiasm from an 'outsider'.
    I was there ( even caught a brief glimpse of myself in this vid) and it was a very enjoyable day.
    Thank you both for your effort to capture the day.

      Hi Ed. Thanks very much for your kind comments. Really appreciated. I have passed them on to Janet. No we are not bikers, I don't even have a car now.
      Thanks again. Pete

      @@petethegrate As you and Janet clearly enjoy making vids I think you would enjoy the Itchy Boots UA-cam channel. She is a young Dutch lady currently riding her motorcycle solo from Argentina up to Alaska. She films some spectacular scenery and is a geologist so has an interest in rocks and historical places of interest. You don't have to be a Biker to watch her vids, she has over 1million subscribers now, many of whom don't ride but just enjoy her entertaining style.
      You'll get to see the World from the comfort of your chair.

    Those three wheeled vehicles in Castlefields, I am reliably informed, are "Spyders". Great video - lovely to see the map integration showing where everything is!

    Cracking video of this years meet Pete You must have clocked up a few miles as you were walking round recording ? Your input with the commentary and maps made all the difference for us viewers The icing on the video for me was your wonderful Moonraker Esque Accent just like mine........ Yer Tiz / Ow Biz /Tother side :)

      Thanks for your very kind comments Kev, but before I blush too much, I think you must have missed the credit to the actual photographer at the very end of the video. My friend Janet Coombs was the photographer who spent many hours walking around the town on Saturday recording the video on my behalf. One doesn't mention a lady’s age but suffice to say that she has been an OAP for many years - but not quite as many as me.
      My part was all day Sunday & Monday spent editing the actual footage, creating the maps, writing the script for the commentary and, although it was intended for Janet to record the voice-over, she wasn’t available so I did it myself instead. Using my very best Wiltshire accent of course.
      I did make a brief token appearance in the video. That was me on my mobility scooter outside Marden House. I suppose it can be said that the result was a joint production between Janet and myself.
      However, many thanks again for taking the trouble to comment, it’s really appreciated. Pete
