    A great new format - - and how nice to have someone do the actual walking for you! Viewing from New Zealand, where i have been "exiled" for over five decades, I love to see videos such as this which remind me of the wonderful countryside that still exists (though shrinking) "back home". I'll be looking forward to the next episode.

    Sheeeeepies!! I want to see sheep on all the walks! I might be a bit biased when it comes to sheep, though. I'm in Canada, and we don't have nearly enough. None in the area I live, which makes me sad. My father was born and raised in the Lake District.

    Robin, that was a lovely and enjoyable adventure. it is amazing to learn that te whole coutryside is criss crossed with such pathways! Your description of the species in Blenheim Park was a revelation, it is comforting to know that they are preserved, free from intrusion and depredation. However, I missed seeing you in person and your doggies! A large part of my enjoyment each sunday was to watch them enjoying thier walks with you. And I missed your visit to he local church. Perhaps you could could include a segment , a detour, now and then off the path I would love to see you in person give ,the history and a tour inside a Church along the Cotswold Walk.. Being an american of advanced years, i will never be able to visit these churches in person, in this life, at least. I also made a discovery of my own today. I have become accustomed to learning a bit of history about the ancient Churches in the English countryside. every sunday from you. There are others who feature old churches on you tube, but none of the presentaions can compare to your scholarship and Mastery of the English language. Nobody else can can convey such beautiful descriptions and complex thoughts with an economy of words delivered in your delightful rumbling voice. You requested our comments andd suggestions. I recall reading or hearing somewhere that there are, existing today,ancient footpaths that were listed in the Domesday Book. .Maybe it was on one of your shows? I have no idea if , after 1066, the inventories in the Book, included the area of the Cotswolds. I have read so many historical novels, there was a description in one of them of how thorough the Normans were. they listed , every farm animal, bundles of sticks and footpaths. it would be fun to have Ross explore these very ancient pathhways. Thank you ❤

      Thank You so much for the constructive feedback - our normal visits to lovely Cotswold villages and churches aren't going anywhere by any means - we're just doing this as a bit of a different offering for a few weeks, and every now and again in the future. We will try and look in on more churches on the walks though!

    Thank you Robin and Ross, we are watching from South East Queensland. Really enjoyed the first of this series. we have visited the Cotswolds many times over the past 25 years and love seeing so many of our best memories. Very sad that so many pubs are closing. We would love to see a walk around Adlestrop with of course a poem from the bus shelter.

Loved the poem (I miss your Wednesday poems). Seeing the sheep made me think of that song, "Sheep May Safely Graze". Watching from Texas and envying all the green that surrounds you! ❤🐑

    It would be very nice if you showed an aerial at the beginning showing the location within the country, and then a closer aerial throughout the video showing where he was at a given time on the walk.
    Otherwise, it is very difficult for non-locals to have any perspective on location and breadth.
