    That was beautifully put together and very emotional. What a shame for the family to see their home flattened. Joyce seems a lovely lady. Also just to mention the skill from that machine driver.

      Joyce really is a fabulous lady, full of love and laughter and I'm sure we'll stay in touch from here on.
      Damo, the driver, really blew my mind with his skills...it was an extension of his arm!

    This lovely film made me cry, but I know it commemorates so much happiness of one family living in a wonderful place. So ultimately not a sad film, even though I couldn’t watch all the demolition. A metaphor for life

    Invaluable resource. A truly personal aspect of coastal erosion, thoughtfully produced.
    Cliff Farm was long a useful landmark, not least for geologists.

      You can't imagine (or maybe you can?) how nervous I've been since it aired.
      I went straight to work at 4pm and didn't check how it went down till just now.
      Many, many hours went into it.
      Really appreciate your opinion buddy, you've seen the progression from the beginning.

    I don’t have the right words to express how emotional this video is. Your title is true, both heart-breaking and heart-warming. Definitely not just a house on the cliff. Joyce and Andy’s family home. Joyce is such a lovely person. I loved Andy’s sun shade. The ode to Joyce and Andy’s house was sung by the voice of an angel, Wing commander

      And yes, she has the voice of an angel. 😍
      An interesting fact...she sang that without any pitch cue...when I compared with the original guitar part, she had sang exactly the same pitch (which happens to be 432htz)!!
      She's what I call 'a proper singer' 😊😍

    Was thinking how carefully and compassionately this house was being demolished , then my heart broke when i saw the clothes still hanging in the wardrobe and again when the claw pulled them out and they hung blowing in the breeze before their last journey into the skip ,very moving video ,mother nature has a lot to answer to .

    • @timothystravels8492

      I found it strangely compassionate also, the delicate way the house was dismantled. I imagined it being bulldozed.

      I don’t blame the natural world for doing what it naturally does, I do think a few sea defences would have helped preserve the property for a few more years though.
      It all seems to come down to wether the authorities think it’s worth the financial cost of the defences to save that piece of land, and unfortunately peoples feelings are not a consideration when it comes to making those kind of decisions, it would be great if they were 🤷‍♀️

      Finally got round to seeing this Davy and how sad that the home they had bought had to be demolished because of the sea erosion. It was very touching how you went through the house and mingled the old footage and the new footage together to show how it had changed over the years . Great Documentary as usual mate can’t wait to see the rest of the videos you’ve put on here since Christmas. I hope you had a great Christmas and here’s to a happy and prosperous new year to you both ❤️❤️

    I went Saturday the 21/12/24, the site was cleared and the digger still there. I wanted to look around and document it. I have done this with houses on my channel. Im glad this house got shown and will be remembered. It will be shown on maps for all time, but now people can see what it was really, like, as a home.

    How sad for the poor lady seeing her forever home being demolished, im sure anybody that buys a house in the area knows the inevitability of its future it still cannot be easy.
    Unfortunately this week I saw a video on UA-cam of one of these urban explorers snooping around this house and the lady’s possessions. It showed a notice on the consumer unit stating that the electricity had been disconnected only the day before.

    • @timothystravels8492
      @timothystravels8492  18 днів тому +3

      To be fair, it was a great house to be explored and wouldn't blame someone for having a snoop. Joyce had collected the belongings she wanted and didn't have room for any more.

    Incredibly moving. Well done for putting this video together. I moved to the area three years ago and could see Joyce's house from my bedroom window - a landmark to show where the sea was. We were told when we moved here that it would take maybe 500 years for the sea to reach our home ... not so sure now.
