An antique shop lovers dream. A nice place and the Methodist Church would be a great HQ. 🙂 Enjoy your pint 🍺.

Yet another place I need visit. I also use the ZHIYUN WEEBILL-S with my Canon EOS 5D Mk IV (multiple lenses) 👌
You must visit St. Mawes, an old friend of mine bought 'The Idle Rocks Hotel'. Apparently St. Mawes is the Monte Carlo of England.
Nice - is the Weebil-S any good?
I'm tempted to try one
@@GimbalWalkTV Hi Neil, It does the job but you are probably more experienced to judge that me. Chris
Well researched video! Congratulations. Did you make it into the Museum?
Sadly not - didn’t have time
So I’ve booked a return trip to do a more indepth video and a proper look around!
What is a withiel, and why was it lost? 🤔
That's the million dollar question!
