    Hello, Robin and Ross, from the US! Thank you both for streaming with your audience and for sharing so much insight of the beautiful Cotswolds with its admirers, old and new, all around the world! I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a copy of Evans' publication after discovering your channel. I obtained it through a second hand book retailer online and not only was it in pristine condition, but it also included some pleasant surprises such as hand penciled price of 5 pounds (much less than I paid of course)inside its cover, likely from a previous local book shop sale, and several items that had been placed within its pages by previous owners including post card illustrations and local news articles and photographs relative to the pages in which they were strategically placed among and offer a unique parallel between the book and those who have enjoyed it over the years. I am a history buff and fan of architecture which contributed to my interest in the Cotswolds and that interest has grown over the past several years, in large part due to your channel. I look forward to adding a copy of your book to my collection!
    I have visited London only once thus far, a birthday trip for my Daughter in 2019, but was unable to carve out enough time to explore the Cotswolds and the surrounding country side, but I have a solo trip planned in a couple of years and have an entire road trip and itinerary mapped out over a planned 4 days of exploring! I will certainly have my copy of Evans' book as well as my copy of your edition in hand as I do! If, by chance, you happen to be doing some filming in the area and we cross paths during my time there I hope that I will have a chance to introduce myself and thank the two of you properly over a pint or two at one of the many great pubs you have featured! Please keep up the great work! - Cheers!

    Just watching this in Sept 16th of 2024. I have never been so interested and entertained by a travel show like this one. Robin, I watch your shows over and over everyday during my resting time when ever that might be as an older gentleman that I am. We were coming to the Cotswolds this Fall but due to illness it made it impossible and I am deeply disappointed. Maybe next Fall fingers crossed!! But thank you and Ross for the most wonderful program I’ve ever watched. May God bless both of you !! Cary Cary. Kansas City Missouri.

    Just a little personal trivia about myself, my preferred wool to spin are from the Cotswold sheep. I dream someday to visit the Cotswolds and speak with people in the fiber arts industry - the shepherds, spinners, and knitters.

    My family has been in the US since 1690 and yet, according the my DNA, I'm 72% English, 8% Scot and 20% northern Europe which is most likely German and French. After over 300 years, I still have more English blood in me than many Brits do! 😂😂😂

    • @HollyCranfan
      @HollyCranfan Рік тому +1

      Or your family was like mine. Puritans in America since 1632. The French incited Indian attacks and encouraged them abducting puritans and selling them into slavery in Quebec.
      It went in from 1680 -1720. Forced to change to Catholicism, change names and stayed in Canada. Horrible dark history. My ancestor was abducted twice and got away from Canada by random. Hanna Heath if Haverhill Massachusetts
      My English ancestors would have had it better back home in England. Many killed by native Americans and French.

      @@HollyCranfan it took determination and commitment on the part of all members of the earlier settlers; but, now they come in the tens of millions just to get on our Welfare system which takes up 37% of our national budget. That's insane!
      None of these illegal immigrants give anything; but, they take a whole hell of a lot not to mention our own home grown leeches.
      I believe Americans have a duty to provide for our elderly and such; but, anyone healthy enough to have baby every year, then they should get off of their backsides and support their own children.
      I did; plus, through my taxes supported many more. It's a disgrace to see any woman still working at eight or nine months pregnant so another, lazier woman can sit on her backside and receive more in benefits than the working woman takes home. Don't believe the lie that big businesses support Welfare through their taxes. It's the every day worker who supports the lazy ones. Again, I have no qualms about helping people in need; but, they àre not due a lifetime of financial support ;

    A wonderful discussion - thank you! I am always amazed & very thankful, when flying over the gentle, green patchwork of England’s fields, that there is any green, open space left. I often wonder at how the island would fare if the multitudes of natives who left, willingly or unwillingly, for other parts of the globe over the last 400 years would have stayed, generating so many more people. Surely, the island would have been devoid of any open space!

    How about a tour of the Cotswolds' early pubs, like The Fleece? That would be fun. Unfortunately, we don't have pubs here in the U.S., and I miss my neighborhood watering hole! I haven't been in the Cotswolds -- or indeed, in England -- for years. Wish I could get back; things are not good here just now.

    Robin, your descriptions of the architectural elements on old churches you often visit, show a deep knowledge of architectural aspects, have you made a study of such things? Or are you well researched prior to your visits to such places. Mike East Yorkshire
