- Before our recent investigation at Santon, we, that is Oana, Eddie and myself visited Brandon Country Park in North West Suffolk. It was quite an interesting ramble with much to see.
I hope you`ll enjoy this video while I edit to produce our next full show - an investigation at Santon, Norfolk.

A Beautiful Spring walk on a Lovely day! I have been to see the General Sherman tree and it is breath taking! The redwood there is as well. Trees are perhaps the most beautiful of life forms on Mother Earth! I saw a snake here in our woods in Pennsylvania just two days ago, a harmless garter snake about the size of the one you came upon. I know Oana doesn’t like them but they are amazing creatures indeed. And Eddy’s walking stick is also amazing! I’ve made similar walking sticks tipped with white tailed deer antlers. Poppy would have a blast here as there are many squirrels and in Spring the young ones chase each other around and around up and down tree trunks. Kind Thanks for the beautiful and historical parks! It was Lovely as I enjoyed my morning coffee on this rainy Saturday morning in SE Pennsylvania! Love, Light, Peace and Joy of Being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Thanks, DaveyJO. I`d love to see General Sherman. I really can understand why the natives worshipped these trees as something God-like. They truly are venerable. Hopefully, Eddie will see your comment regarding the walking stick. Thanks for commenting. 😊
Yes I was lucky with the stick. I knew I had to get one do to being not too good on the ole pins & spinal arthritis. I was looking for sticks at Weeting Steam engine Rally & most were £80 to £100. Then I saw it & immediately loved it. I thought...
I bet thats expensive.
I looked & it was £25. I immediately bought it :) \m/
Its far better than the more expensive ones :) \m/
Red squirrels are native to Britain & protected. Some bright spark introduced grey squirrels & they've gradually made the red squirrels rare, grey squirrels are treated as vermin to preserve the much shyer red squirrels.
@@AveburyEddie Eddie, if you were in Pennsylvania or me in England, I’d make you a fine walking stick with leather hand grips and bead work. I’d gift it to you just for all you’ve shared with we viewers and the respect you do it with! You, Oana and Chris make a great team with respect as I’ve said, history and Good Friendship. Perhaps one day I can deliver a nice hickory stick. I’ll have to check about sending one there. I don’t want you paying some hefty postage, which I’ve heard happens sometimes. Many Blessings with Love, Light, Peace and Joy of Being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
This brings back memories, from when Eddie gave us a guided tour of the Park and Barrow.
We were lucky enough to see some Mandarin Ducks
I love Eddies guided tours of his part of the world. There is always something new to see. 😊
There was one male mandarin there Alan but it was last years born & still haven't quite got its full colours.
Im thinking that the females would have been up in the trees somewhere, on their nests :) \m/
Very beautiful! I love trees. I was kind of surprised by the Redwood. I didn't think they grew anywhere outside of California. A very delightful walk. And I'm with Oana on the snakes! I'm sorry, Eddie. I'm not like you and love reptiles,. lol. Thanks, Chris. I've enjoyed walking with the four of you. Gave me a good giggle.
Near where I live Lorraine, there is an abandoned USAAF airfield that has a few redwoods planted and left by aircrews, The Brandon one is something special, eh? Glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Ha Ha !! Snakes are like marmite. You either love them or hate them. Giggle :) \m/
@@AveburyEddie I LIKE EM BOTH ME= DONT HATE NOTHING
Great to see Eddie! He brings a different personal dynamic whenever he's around.
He certainly does, Jeff :)
Glad that you enjoy my input to the shows :)
Beautiful park! Oana I am with you....snakes and I am GONE!!!! Thanks you three for an enjoyable walk around. Hi Eddie!!
Lol! Chikken!! Ha, ha. 😊
@@HauntedEarth 🐔
Lol! _"...semi-maniacal but not The Full Monty."_ You, sir, have just made my day.
😊
Eddie had to have a walking stick that looks like that! What a character.. these new style videos are fantastic. Good job.
Thanks, Nick! 😊
Thanks For This Brilliant Video Hope You All Take Care
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks, Blue 😊
Cheers Chris, Oana, Eddie & Poppy! I, too, am a Redwood hugger this end of Pond. Had pic taken w/giant Sequoia General Sherman 10 yrs back. In 2021, Forest Service encircled him with foil as protection from rampant wildfires. He was singed, but survived. I knew not of Monkey Puzzle trees until recently rediscovering, "The Ghost & Mrs. Muir" og film & later series.
Thanks a lot for this!!!
Thanks for commenting. 😊 Pleased you enjoyed it.
Love the Greylag geese & they went into a hissy fit because they had a nest near by :)
Loved the little Grass snake. It always happen when I haven't got my camera. Grrrr !!
Worked flints always have a bulb of percussion, thats how you can tell if a flint has been worked or not. Sadly none of the flints at the round barrow have them :(
The mausoleum is beautiful inside. The walls are painted pink :)
Nice video :) \m/
Thanks, Eddie! Pleased you enjoyed.
That was really fascinating! Do please thank Eddie fit his wonderful info! it was really great to hear about and fascinating to see all those flints too!! I used to drive through there, when going to Snetterton! I wish I knew what was so near it would have been wonderful to just see! Thank you firstly you of course then, Eddie too and the wonderful Oana and of course dear Poppy too!
Thanks, Nigel. I certainly think you missed some great things to see back in the day. Appreciate your comments. 😊
Glad that you enjoyed my info on the barrow :)
Comes from my huge interest in archaeology. Prehistory being my favourite time period :)
Ive had huge love of flint tools for many years :) \m/
@@AveburyEddie It was fascinating thank you very much I have not looked at your channel after the move I completely forgot! Oops Sorry ! have always loved you channel too!
@@HauntedEarth I can see that, but sadly when we all work it is not easy to see and back in the day with no internet it was not at all easy to find places either! I am not that old but you do not forget what life was before all this magic! LOL
@@nigeldewallens1115 Thank you :)
My channel is mostly of my fav hobbies, nature rambles & ghosthunts :) \m/
Lovely to see Eddie again ❤️ Just tell Oana that Slow Worms are legless lizards so not a snake. They are a protected species in the U.K. Our cat used to bring them in to play with and we had to chase him around the house to save them 🤣
I used to have a cat who did that and I was regularly rescuing slow worms so one day I thought he had done it again and it was a stunned adder! I very gingerly carried it to an area of long grass and locked the cat in!
@@spookycat8556 That is so funny 😂 The worst bit about slow worms is they drop their tails, which keep wiggling 🤢
Thanks, ladies!
Although I enjoy watching and appreciate the time spent on everything you publish, I'm especially looking forward to the paranormal investigation at Santon, Norfolk. 👻
Santon is coming, Annika. Paranormal edits take well over a week to go through. But I thought this would keep your interest. :)
@@HauntedEarth Indeed it has, and seeing Eddie and Poppy make guest appearances is a treat. (Oana is now a series regular.) My favorite are your well-researched and articulate para-documentaries as I am interested in history, art/architecture, travel, and the paranormal, but you could talk about paint drying on a rock and I would be enraptured: the timbre of your voice, inflection and accent are very pleasant. I've been saying it since I found this channel about a year ago: someone should hire you to do voiceover work and audiobooks.
So great to see Eddie. Hopefully we will see more of the team again (Sean, Tim and Dee) 😊
Who knows? Thanks, Chellie 😊
Absolutely hooked to your films Chris, which I recommend to many people. 😊
Grass snakes are getting very rare, thank you for not touching the one you saw. Another excellent video & history lesson. Just rediscovered your channel & first time seeing Oanna, is she your wife Chris ?
Those flint look like they been worked on, great location ..
Thanks 👍
Thank you again, love your videos, do you believe all place are co-habited by spirits-ghosts?
I do believe so very much. They are everywhere. Thanks for commenting. 😊
Canada geese are nasty! We have a lot of them where I live (there are many ponds and a copse nearby). They will chase you and attack. Probably the worst import from Canada…lol. 😂 PS. Snakes are cool. I love all creatures, ugly or cute, stinky or sweet. Thanks Chris, Oana and Eddie. I love your walkabouts and history lessons! Virginia. 🇨🇦🥰
I`ve been suitably punished here with the dreaded exclamation mark. They are Greylag geese, but as objectionable as the Canadian variety, Virginia. I too love snakes, In fact I love all creatures because they all have a role to play and are uniquely special. But equally, we all have phobias, unfortunately.
Monkey puzzle, because it's the only tree a monkey cannot climb.
I think it was a comment from a barrister who quipped that climbing it would be hard for a monkey, and hence it became known as a monkey puzzle tree. I know that now! lol 😊
I fear snakes!!!!
I strangely love them :)
Greylag geese on the pond not Canada!
Thanks, Andy!!! 😊
Who is the young lady Chris? Nice to see Eddie.
She is my love and partner, Oana, Mima.
☺️👍🏼
