Podcasts about meanwhile paul

We're back in Camp Echo Mountain, and there's a new villain in town. But is local maniac (their words, not ours!) Crazy Freddy just a campfire horror story, or is an axe-wielding killer really lurking by the lake? Our new favourite character Nicole is determined to convince Liz of the latter, though considering how good Liz is at gaslighting herself, Nicole doesn't have to try too hard. Meanwhile Paul continues to be irredeemable, a floral French picnic provides a moment of genuine hilarity, and a much-loved old character returns...  Remember, if you can help us expand our SVU collection, which we would really appreciate, you can see what we need here and mail us at svhpodcast@gmail.com: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wgq5a-0C3zoTC065tOzJmSkI2kNBBe2K38Hu8jn8qg8/edit?usp=sharing  This show is part of the HeadStuff Podcast Network.

Back to recording indoors this month, and back to recording from different countries. Whilst Glyn remains in Wiltshire Paul is once again doing battle with French rural internet which seems to be arriving by means of a telephone cable lying in a ditch outside the village. But it's amazing what Glyn can do with his editing software so the audio was fine. Bearing in mind Paul has been away for a few weeks and Glyn has been tied up with work, there was a surprising amount to report in terms of activity since last month's podcast. Once again Elaine Perkins has been busily producing some terrific blogs and Facebook posts including a little history and fascinating secrets to be found in Fisherton Anger in Salisbury (Facebook post); a blog about The Village of Alderbury on the website (link below); and a blog about The Borbach Chantry also on the website (link below). Elaine seemed to spend a lot of her time trying to link two sections of a right of way interrupted by a river! Contributors to the Closed Facebook Group will have seen some stunning aerial shots by Hedley Thorne of Hippenscombe and Fosbury Camp, and Wansdyke. The latter was part of a collaboration with You Tubers Paul and Rebecca Whitewick who posted a fascinating video about Open Access areas. You can find a link to the video below. Facebook Contributor Colin Fry posted some images of Stanley Bridge and nearby Tytherton Lucas which were in the area of Paul's blog entitled Maud Heath's Causeway. Meanwhile Paul has gone all spiritual and posted a couple more blogs featuring churches on his doorstep – the two churches at Orcheston, and St Andrew's Church, Orcheston. Links to the blogs can be found below. But it wasn't all about churches. Paul and his walking buddy Stu undertook a long day's walk from Shrewton to Stapleford and back to search for the end of the River Till where it joins the River Wylye. The walk was particularly long as it involved an hour or so in the pub! A link to this blog can be found below. To be fair to Glyn he did actually manage to get out and led the final Wiltshire Museum Guided Walk on Fyfield Down taking in the Devil's Den and the Polissoir Stone. But before we moved onto this week's main subject we talked about cats. Large black cats. Whilst reading Robert Macfarlane's beautiful book The Old Ways – A Journey on Foot, Paul came across Macfarlane's story about his encounter with what he was certain was a black panther on the Marlborough Downs. There have been many sightings of these big cats in Wiltshire including one by Paul outside Shrewton. So Glyn has decided to start a new thread about black panther sightings on Facebook. Meanwhile there's a link to Robert Macfarlane's superb book below. Finally we got onto the main subject of this episode of the podcast. A walk Paul and Stu did in March 2022 starting from Aldbourne taking in Liddington Castle and the abandoned village of Snap. You can follow the map and walk description in Paul's blog, linked below. This is a walk rich in history from the Bronze Age right up to World War II. Aldbourne was the base for the US Army's 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division, or Easy Company as they came to be known, and as featured in the film series Band of Brothers. And of course the walk was accompanied by some spectacular wide reaching views of Wiltshire. In the discussion about the walk Paul mentioned a website containing some great historical facts about the history to be found along the way in this walk. The site in question was actually that for Aldbourne Heritage Centre and we've included a link below. Then on to the wrap up for this episode: Steve Dixon's piece leading into our main subject is called “Round the Downs”.  As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”. Finally, don't forget to check out the Hidden Wiltshire online shop on the website if you'd like to help us keep the lights on.

We're making the most of the weather again and recording the podcast outside on location. As before you'll need to listen to find out where we were. As ever we start with a chat about what's been happening in the world of Hidden Wiltshire since the last podcast. And if it weren't for one or two of our wonderful contributors the answer would be “not much”. Elaine Perkins has “delivered” once again (this seems to be the word of the month at the moment)! She posted some great photos in the contributors' Facebook Group of a short evening walk she did taking in Old Sarum, Little Durnford and the Avon Trail. Elaine also ventured on an exploration of Amesbury and the surrounding area which we have now posted as a blog on the open Facebook site and the Hidden Wiltshire website. Amesbury may not be hidden but some of what Elaine found certainly was. You'll find a link to her blog below. Glyn managed to squeeze in one walk before he went on holiday, based around East and West Knoyle. There's a link to his blog and photos below. This is a beautiful part of Wiltshire and well worth a visit. Meanwhile Paul has once again deserted the county and undertaken walks in the New Forest (just over the Wiltshire border in Hampshire) and further afield on the stunning Dorset coast. But we can't talk about those! There have been a couple of Wiltshire Museum guided walks since the last podcast. A select few guests accompanied Glyn on a walk in the countryside around Castle Combe, an abbreviated version of the walk Paul did just after lockdown in July 2020. You'll find a link to Paul's walk below but Glyn managed to shorten this to a more manageable five miles. We've added a map of his walk to Paul's original blog. Glyn's article about Wiltshire's Blind Houses was featured in the August edition of Wiltshire Life. His original blog can be found below. Glyn also attracted a lot of attention on Twitter when he posted some aerial photographs of the parched landscape around Rybury Camp in Pewsey Vale. Local farmer (and constructor of long barrows) Tim Daw had noticed some interesting crop marks in his fields and invited Glyn to photograph them with his drone. You can see the photographs on both Hidden Wiltshire Facebook pages and on Glyn's Twitter feed. There appears to be a previously unknown enclosure and henge in the fields together with multiple possibly Iron Age storage pits. Whilst the hot dry weather creates many problems it does enable the land to reveal many of its hidden secrets. Finally in our review we wanted to mention a couple of Hidden Wiltshire followers. Firstly Bill Parncutt,who emailed us with some very kind comments about the podcast, and secondly Simon Lovett and his dad John for whom Simon bought a copy of our book as a birthday present. Paul delivered the book personally to John but stupidly didn't get the name of his lovely wife. But it was great to meet you Mrs Lovett! Before we moved onto the main subject of the podcast we had a chat about our location for the recording so do have a listen. The main subject in this episode was the walk Paul and his regular walking buddy Stu did in February 2022 starting in Lacock, their target being the Wilts & Berks Canal. Everyone knows Lacock so we didn't dwell on that for too long. But the canal is something that many don't know about. Completed in 1810 the canal stretches for 52 miles and its primary purpose was to carry coal. Ironically its heyday was the 1830s when it was used to carry the raw materials for the construction of the Great Western Railway which was to see its ultimate demise and abandonment in 1914. Then in 1977 a group of volunteers formed to begin the monumental task of restoring its entire length, a task that continues to this day under the auspices of the Wilts & Berks Canal Trust. If you want to support them in their endeavours, you'll find a link to their excellent website below. The rest of the walk takes in a number of fine Wiltshire houses including Ray Mill House, Pewsham House, Kilima Farm, Bowden Park and Bewley Court together with a rather pathetic looking Iron Age hillfort at Naish Hill and finally Lacock Abbey. In all the walk was about seven miles and you will find a link to Paul's blog with route map below. Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading into our main subject is called “Dark and Lonely Water”.  A rather depressing piece it includes the voiceover from a public information film from 1973 about the dangers of playing near water, narrated by Donald Pleasence! As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”. The great news is that, whilst Steve has provided us with a sizable library of music, he has of late become enthused and promised us some new work. Finally, don't forget to check out the Hidden Wiltshire online shop on the website if you'd like to help us keep the lights on. The first Hidden Wiltshire book has now sold out but the second book is still available at a specially discounted price from the website.

In this week's episode, Abe leads the Three Jews in a tribute to the recently passed A. B. Yehoshua, one of Israel's greatest novelists - and a controversial contributor to the Israel-Diaspora debate. And speaking of controversy... Gabi lets us all know where he stands in the 'gender' culture war (as if we didn't know) with a full-throated recommendation of Matt Walsh's documentary "What is a Woman". Meanwhile Paul's discussion of Israel's dysfunctional politics somehow leads into an argument about primaries in the United States... go figure! And as usual, there's badinage aplenty. Follow (and argue with) us on Twitter - @3Jews4Opinions @abesilbe @Brahmski @pauldgross Articles referred to can be found here: Meretz activists protest outside rebel MK's home, call for her resignation Yesha leader faces rebellion for backing coalition bill crucial to settlers A.B.

Glyn was hoping for an easy edit for this episode of the podcast as he had less time than usual to do it. This was all the invitation Paul needed to say exactly what he wanted knowing that Glyn didn't have the time to cut it out! But being responsible podcasters we stuck to the brief. The main feature was a glorious walk we put together for Wiltshire Museum based around Hippenscombe Bottom, so beautifully painted by Eric Ravilious in 1937. And there was a special announcement at the end of the podcast. But first we discussed our news since the last podcast. In that podcast Glyn talked briefly about his visit to Bincknoll Castle and Broad Town White Horse. Since then he has written and posted a blog to the website about it (see link below). But apparently Bincknoll is pronounced “Bynol' in Wiltshire! Which begs the question “how do pronounce Long Knoll and Little Knoll”? Meanwhile Paul has travelled to the far northwest of the county to the Cotswolds west of Malmesbury, for a walk around Brokenborough and Easton Grey. There's a blog about this walk on the website (link below). He has also written a blog about his visit to Bentley Wood, a collaboration with Hidden Wiltshire contributor Elaine Perkins, who suggested the route and provided a number of the photographs. You'll find a link below to that blog. Elaine also posted a description of her recent visit to Sherrington and Boyton, off the beaten track in the beautiful Wylye Valley, where she found some fantastic hidden treasures. We'll be pulling that together as a blog along with some of Elaine's lovely photographs in due course. And whilst on the subject of the Wylye Valley, we mention the café and gallery at Langford Lakes Nature Reserve run by Wiltshire Wildlife Trust. The gallery and café is open from 10:00 to 16:00, Wednesday to Sunday. At the moment there is an exhibition there entitled “Woodlands” featuring art, photography and 3D work including the photographs of brilliant woodland photographers Stephen Davies and, a friend of Paul's, Nigel Hudson. The exhibition is on from 2 April to 2 May 2022 and you'll find a link below. This podcast's main feature is the stunning landscape and history of Hippenscombe Bottom. Paul wrote a blog which was an amalgam of some five visits to the area which he posted on the website on 21 January 2022. There's a link to the blog below. This walk was put together at the request of David Dawson at Wiltshire Museum and we'll be doing a guided walk with the museum there later in the year. There are many route options but the highlights of this walk are the tiny village of Tidcombe and its “humble” church, Tidcombe Long Barrow, Fosbury Camp (an optional extension but well worth the effort), Chute Causeway, the Devil's Waistcoat and the glorious Hippenscombe Bottom itself. Paul discovered this bottom purely by chance following a momentary glimpse as he drove up Conholt Hill towards Chute Causeway a year ago. Screeching to a halt in the road above he grabbed a photo of the bottom that coincidently was from the exact location that Eric Ravilious painted it in 1937. Little has changed since 1937 although we suspect the shooting estate is now operating on a far more industrial scale. Parking for this particular walk is a challenge. As shown the walk starts from the church in Tidcombe but at best it is only possible to park three cars here. Scot's Poor is a slightly better option with parking on the wide verge on the byway. The route map has been amended in the blog to include this location in order to provide alternative parking options. Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading into our main subject today is called “Shadows Travel Fast” because that's exactly what they do in this part of Wiltshire. As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”. And so to the special announcement. Well you'll have to listen to the podcast to find out what it is! Don't forget to check out the Hidden Wiltshire online shop on the website if you'd like to help us keep the lights on. Both Hidden Wiltshire books can be purchased there. The second book is also available at Devizes Bookshop, Wiltshire Museum in Devizes and now Wiltshire's libraries. And don't forget to subscribe to the Hidden Wiltshire Newsletter from the website.

Since the main part of this podcast is about a short five mile walk we thought this would be a shorter episode than normal. But how wrong we were. We still managed to blather on for what seemed like hours! We kick off with some concerning news about some unedifying scenes in the Facebook Group today with a discussion about Paul's bottom. This is a family show and we've no idea what prompted such a debate. Much!! Despite eye watering petrol and diesel prices we've managed to get out a little in the last two weeks. Glyn had a weekend in Wells but that's in Somerset so we're not interested! But he did see the sad spectacle of the broken spire of St Thomas' Church, blown down during Storm Eunice like a scene from Hot Fuzz, also filmed in Wells. Meanwhile Paul had a reminder of how grim London is, but since that's not in Wiltshire we're not interested in that either. But Paul did manage to do a day long walk based in the hills around Aldbourne, visiting the site of the abandoned village of Snap on the way. We're grateful to Andrew Rumsey, Bishop of Ramsbury, for helping us find it. There's a link to his fantastic book, English Grounds, below. Paul posted a blog with lots of photographs of the walk on 9 March. There's a link to it below. We'll do a podcast about it sometime. Another recent blog posted on the website was one about the Russian scientist Vladimir Artemovich Pasechnik who defected in the 1980s and moved to Shrewton. He worked at the UK Department of Health's Centre for Applied Microbiology & Research (CAMR) at Porton Down and went on to do some ground breaking research into tuberculosis and other drug resistant infections. He is buried in one of the churchyards in the village. You'll find a link to the blog below. Otherwise, Glyn has been playing with his new toy, a 360 degree camera which he's managed to hook up to our outside recording equipment. Watch out for content produced with this gear in the future. If it ever stops raining. Meanwhile Paul has walked a few of his regular routes onto Salisbury Plain. The current extensive Army training exercises and the heavy armour have made a dreadful mess of the sodden ground on the Plains. But nearby the haven that is Parsonage Down is beginning to show the first signs of Spring and there's been some interesting research taking place about the impact of grazing on the flora there. Our main subject this week is the walk that Paul and his walking buddy Stu did in November 2021 which was the subject of a Blog dated 26 November entitled Medieval Inglesham – Three Counties Walk. Continuing this episode's theme of straying beyond Wiltshire this walk in the extreme north-east of the county involved brief forays into neighbouring Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire. But this was necessary in order to reach our objective. This part of Wiltshire forms a finger shaped wedge into Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire. But we began the walk in Lechlade-on-Thames in Gloucestershire, and very nearly got no further than the splendid Sourdough Revolution artisan bakery and café. We could quite happily have stayed there all morning! But we were on a mission so we re-crossed Halfpenny Bridge and followed the south side of the Thames, safely back in Wiltshire, en-route to our objective – the Church of St John the Baptist at Inglesham via a thoroughly ugly lock-keepers cottage that looked like a concrete cooling tower on the way.  We were concerned the church might be locked but were relieved to find it open. And oh my, what a sight awaited us as we opened first one door then another. We'll leave you to read the blog and look at the photographs but suffice to say this spectacular and unique little church was thoroughly worth the trip. And of course, having forgotten what he'd had for breakfast this morning, Paul managed to also forget that he'd posted something on the Hidden Wiltshire Facebook page about a feature on Channel 5 about the church where Tony Robinson interviewed our favourite stonemason Andrew Ziminksi. It was broadcast on 8 October 2021. From the church the walk took us to Buscot Weir via Buscot Wick before returning to Lechlade via the Thames path, criss-crossing counties as we went. We passed by the impressive Buscot Old Parsonage where American voices were to be heard. In the podcast Paul said he didn't know who owned it after its previous owner, art collector Peter Francis Carew Stucley, died in 1964. Subsequent reading revealed it is now owned by the National Trust who also own nearby Buscot Park. Stucley's will stated that the property should be rented furnished to American citizens actively pursuing literary, artistic or academic studies. And it clearly is to this day. In all the walk was a flat and easy five miles, although at this time of year it may be boggy in places. Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading into our main subject today is called “Fragile” because it sounds as though it was performed on a church organ! As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”.

Glyn has a new toy. A 360 degree camera which he assures us will be used for nothing more suspicious than making videos for the Hidden Wiltshire YouTube channel whilst out walking. So watch out for more news on this, and more of our ugly mugs. Meanwhile Paul is traumatised having sold all his camera gear without having the foresight to sort out a replacement kit. Unfortunately we've received another complaint from a Mr Jenkins about how long it takes us to get to the main subject of each podcast. In the last podcast it took us 29 minutes (apparently) to get to the point. We'll see if we can do better and maybe get through an entire episode without getting to the point. Some would argue we already do! Back on the subject of videos the countdown is on for the YouTube premier of Hidden Wiltshire's first serious crack at making a film. Our 40 minute film starring local historian David Carson is based around the villages of Alton Barnes and Alton Priors and the surrounding hills, taking us on a historical journey from Neolithic times up to the English Civil War and the Swing Riots of the 19th century. The film premiers at 7:30 pm on Tuesday 15 February and viewers can use the Chat function to talk to the Hidden Wiltshire team as we watch the video together. There's a link to the YouTube channel below. We posted a blog a few days ago about the walk Paul did based around Lacock and the Wilts & Berks Canal. For those who don't use Facebook it's a good idea to keep an eye on the Hidden Wiltshire website for regular blogs. You can subscribe to alerts which will notify you when new blogs are posted. There's a link to the Wilts & Berks Canal walk below. A quick mention also of the exhibition by aerial photographer David Abrams called Ancient Sites from the Air. David's incredibly detailed photographs include many in Wiltshire and can be seen at Salisbury Museum until Sunday 15 May. More details in the link below. Finally, before we get on to the main subject, we thank some of our lovely Facebook Group contributors for their posts about their walks and finds. A special mention goes to Elaine Perkins who's posted details and photos of some terrific walks recently. Just the sort of thing we're looking for. The main subject of this episode of the podcast is the walk Glyn and Paul did recently together with Hidden Wiltshire follower Bo Novak, around Old Winsley and Turleigh which took in the curiously named “The Elbow”. We recorded some audio as we walked so this podcast is a mixture of indoor and outdoor recording. We've mentioned this walk a few times but we were inspired to do it following correspondence with Sarah Lucas. Sarah moved away from Wiltshire some 30 years ago and listening to the podcast brings back memories of her youth. She lived with her family in Old Winsley and during the last war her mother worked as a nurse in what was a TB clinic and is now Avonpark Retirement Home. Her grandparents owned a house by the Kennet and Avon Canal called The Elbow. Sarah asked if we would do a walk and take some pictures in the area. We were happy to oblige. It's an area Glyn and Paul knew little about so it was great to have Bo along to act as our guide. You'll find a link to the blog about the walk below. Then on to the wrap up: Thanks as usual to Steve Dixon for the music. His piece leading into our main subject is called “Canopy”. As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”. Don't forget to check out the Hidden Wiltshire online shop on the website if you'd like to help us keep the lights on. Both Hidden Wiltshire books can be purchased there.

Glyn opens this episode of the podcast with the announcement that he has moved the Hidden Wiltshire Headquarters from Trowbridge. Fearing that HQ had been relocated to Liverpool, Paul's initial shock was eased by the news that HQ is now at Heywood House on Capps Lane just outside Westbury! And just as Paul was left wondering where Glyn had got what was probably a five million quid asking price from, Glyn stated that in fact he was simply renting a desk in what is serviced office accommodation. From a £5m mansion to a lone desk in 30 seconds… However, this episode of the podcast focuses on a blog Paul posted on the Hidden Wiltshire website on 23 January 2021 about the River Till. A blog re-printed in the Tilshead Newsletter in March 2021. Fame at last!  But first we talk about the last two weeks in Wiltshire, one day of which Paul spent in the Badlands of Gloucestershire. The excitement is building for Hidden Wiltshire's second book which this time is a collaborative effort between Glyn and Paul. With a fair wind and favourable conditions in Customs (since the book is being printed in the Netherlands) the book will be launched on 10 December at a surprise and secret venue. So it should be available just in time for Christmas. It's been an all-consuming effort but having seen a proof copy, which required a fair few tweaks, we're really excited about the release. Meanwhile Paul's had some interesting times of late working for Natural England. It's hoped the volunteers can work more independently on the local nature reserves in future which involves being trained and certified for all manner of tasks. The Government does like its health and safety courses. Paul spent a day last week near Cirencester on a 4x4 driving course where he learned that he had driven the nature reserve's old Landrover Defender all the way from Parsonage Down to Cirencester with the differential lock engaged. Which is not a good thing. It's no wonder he struggled to go round corners. And whilst working at the reserve this week the Defender was found to be abandoned in the farmyard. Broken! But not Paul's fault we hasten to add. Next step – tractor driving training. Still at Parsonage Down the volunteer team spent one day this week coppicing a small wood that provides shelter to the farm. It really highlighted the point we've made in a couple of podcasts, and in particular the one entitled Wiltshire Clumps, that woodland needs to be managed in the light of climate change and other challenges such as ash dieback. It was quite a shock to see how many trees in this small copse were dead or dying. Beech, ash, elder, hawthorn – all were dying back. Whilst some dead wood can be left to provide a rich habitat, much had to be cleared to allow the light to penetrate to the woodland floor. The area will we re-populated with a more diverse species of native tree which will provide a beautiful wood for future generations to enjoy. We then move on to the main subject – the River Till. This quintessential chalk winterbourne rises in Tilshead and flows all the way to Stapleford where it joins the Wylye. Many people quite understandably assume that Tilshead takes its name from the river. But this is not the case. The name is actually derived from "Theodwulf's hide”. The name Tilshead came into use in the 16th century. The river was called the Winterbourne until around the start of the 20th century, when the name River Till began to be used. Locally the river was also referred to as Waterlake, a name which subsists today in the form of Waterlake Lane in Orcheston. During the podcast we talk about the inevitable rich history that surrounds the Till. From the three Neolithic long barrows on the hill above Tilshead which are orientated along the lines of the river's re-entrants, to the story of the Orcheston grass that once grew in the water meadows in that village at a rate of 17 – 18 feet a year, to the Bronze and Iron Age round barrow cemetery of The Coniger between Shrewton and Winterbourne Stoke (where Roman pottery has also been found) to medieval Stapleford Castle, once the home of Jane Seymour's father. (Henry VIII's third wife, not the actress!) We also had a fairly monumental political rant! It's been widely reported that Wessex Water has been allowing raw sewage to enter the Till for several years – both at Orcheston and from the sewage treatment plant at Shrewton. According to The Times between July 2019 and June 2020 the Shrewton treatment works operated by Wessex Water spilt untreated sewage into the River Till for 5,110 hours, or more than seven months.  Entreaties to Wessex Water, the Environment Agency and Natural England have all failed to resolve the issue. Meanwhile the water meadow next to Waterlake Lane in Orcheston, where the famed grass once grew, is virtually sterile. And during the spring of this year Paul saw young children playing in the stream just 50 metres below the sewage treatment works outfall. Is it any wonder that otters, water voles and brown trout are no longer or rarely seen in Shrewton? A truly disgraceful situation which the Government's new Bill does little to remedy. There is no map to follow along with this episode of the podcast. Paul pieced together the blog following two day long walks – one between Shrewton and Tilshead (which included Orcheston) and the other between Shrewton and Stapleford which can be extended to make a long day's walk taking in the hills either side of the Till valley that includes the views from Druids Lodge and returning via Yarnbury Castle and the ancient ridgeway across the Plain. A long point to point walk could easily be put together from Tilshead' where the river rises' to its end at Stapleford. Once for the longer days of summer. Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading to our main subject is entitled “When Swallows Rise”. We've used it before but as Paul has spent many happy hours watching swallows dart around the Till just above the remains of the sluice gates below The Coniger, it seemed appropriate. As ever the piece in the introduction and at the end of the podcast is entitled “The Holloway”. Don't forget to subscribe to the Hidden Wiltshire Newsletter from the website.

A real treat in store in this episode as we interview David Dawson, Director of Wiltshire Museum in Devizes. But first we have our usual round-up of what we've been up to since the last episode. The second Hidden Wiltshire book is approaching completion. Apart from providing the music for the podcast Steve Dixon is a graphic designer. He's now cast his eye over the draft and given us some great advice. We're nearly ready to send it off for a draft print before ordering the full print run. The book will be available from the Hidden Wiltshire online store in time for Christmas. Meanwhile Paul has returned from a month in France to a cold damp Wiltshire. But this week's volunteering at Parsonage Down warmed him up after being given the run around by a ram in a very large field who was reluctant to share a paddock with two other rams. His (the ram, not Paul's) eye was on the sheep further up the hill. It took six people on foot plus a seventh in a Landrover to catch the bugger! (Which idiot left that gate open??) Still, that was better than being eaten alive by a swarm of midges later the same afternoon. The midges of Scotland would have been proud of their southern cousins. Earlier in the week Paul and regular walking chum Stu did a recce for a walk in the countryside around Hippenscombe and the Chute Causeway. If you follow the Hidden Wiltshire Facebook page or members' Group you will have seen the report and photographs. We're planning to run an extra combined Hidden Wiltshire/Wiltshire Museum walk in the area this winter but there's so much to see we may have to split it in two. Parking will also be a challenge in the narrow lanes and little villages there. We then turned to our interview with David Dawson. We've got to know David well over the course of this year during our programme of Hidden Wiltshire/Wiltshire Museum walks, in which David's expertise and his “box of tricks” (finds from the areas in which we've walked) have been invaluable. This was a really fascinating discussion which could have gone on for hours, and explains why this episode of the podcast is slightly longer than usual.  David's interest in archaeology began when he was a boy and he's been passionate about it ever since, having studied archaeology at university. A qualified museum curator he patiently waited over the course of several years for the role at Wiltshire Museum (which was founded in 1853) to become vacant in 2008. He didn't hesitate and he's been here ever since. Our discussion ranged from David's particular areas of interest, the structure and funding of Wiltshire Museum to a taster of the some of the internationally significant exhibits that can be seen at the museum in Devizes. Followers of the podcast have heard us talk on a number of occasions about amateur archaeologist (although the term was not used then) and antiquarian William Cunnington of Heytesbury, and his patron Sir Richard Colt Hoare of Stourhead. David really brought these characters to life for us. Listeners may also have heard us talk about landscape artist Eric Ravilious. Whilst not from Wiltshire he was a lover of our chalk downlands and painted many local scenes, including one of our favourites which is of Hippenscombe from the Chute Causeway entitled simply “The Causeway”. Wiltshire Museum currently has an exhibition of Ravilious' artwork. Entitled Downland Man the exhibition runs until 30 January 2022. This is a unique opportunity to see 25 examples of his work, on loan from their owners all over the country. For the entry fee of £6 (children free), which also covers access to the museum's other exhibits, this is an absolute bargain. You'll find a link to the museum's website with more details below. Finally we discussed the museum's plans to relocate to the old Devizes Assize Courts building next to Wadworth Brewery. This is a long-term project which hopefully will see the museum relocate in around 8-10 years' time. But first there's the small matter of raising the £12m-£13m required. Fortunately David's not inconsiderable skills include raising funds! Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading into the interview with David Dawson is entitled “Porto”, for no other reason than we haven't used it before and it conjured up the image of Steve in a beret playing the accordion!

Glyn's been so busy since the last episode that he's not done any walking or taken a single photograph. But that doesn't mean he's been shirking his Hidden Wiltshire duties. He's produced the first draft of the second Hidden Wiltshire book which will be out before Christmas. This one is a joint venture between Glyn and Paul and will feature photographs taken both from above and at ground level. Glyn has also embarked on the mammoth task of editing the footage shot for what will be Hidden Wiltshire's first YouTube video. Meanwhile Paul has been slacking insofar as once again he's been entirely absent from Wiltshire since the last podcast. This necessitated another first for the team. Whilst Glyn was recording from his bunker in Trowbridge, Paul was recording from the depths of south west France – the very north of Dordogne to be precise. So we spent some time talking about the differences in the landscape between south west France and Wiltshire. Both steeped in history but revealing itself in different ways. The main subject this week was the walk that Paul did with regular walking chum Stu at the end of August. In fact Stu was responsible for putting this route in the Ebble Valley together. But his long career in the army, where he was used to yomping long distances laden with huge loads, resulted in a slightly over-ambitious route of nearly 15 miles including a gruesome 4 miles along the old Salisbury – Shaftesbury turnpike. With a bit of tweaking this was reduced to just over 10 miles with an alternative route coming in at around 9.5 miles. Crucially both options involve a shorter trudge along the turnpike. The walk starts in the lovely village of Broad Chalke in the Ebble Valley in the south west of the county. An alternative start point is the village hall at Bishopstone, further east along the valley. The walk begins by following the River Ebble through these two beautiful villages before striking north and up to the ridge which once carried the old turnpike road, all the time checking the views as they open up behind you. Whilst the ridge route can be a little boring you do get some fantastic views north and south from time to time. Our goal was the large Iron Age hillfort of Chiselbury Camp. It's worth walking around its single bank to the edge of the escarpment to the north for the views across the Nadder Valley and the tops of the Fovant Badges at your feet. For Stu and Paul the revelation of this walk was the stunning Knapp Down. After a leg breaking descent from the turnpike into the head of the combe the going gets easier as you head down towards Broad Chalke. This is a beautiful, peaceful place with scenes reminiscent of Alpine meadows. We threaded our way through the open access land eventually reaching Chalk Pyt Farm via the bridleway to the south west of the open access area. You can't quite reach Chalk Pyt Farm on the open access land. But from here it's a short walk back to the village and a well-earned pint in the Queens Head. A glorious and varied walk for a warm sunny day. Then on to the wrap up: Steve Dixon's piece leading into the discussion about the walk is entitled “Hills Hiding Hangars”. This piece was featured in the interview BBC Radio Wiltshire did with Steve a while ago. It's such a beautiful piece we decided to play all of it so this segment is slightly longer than usual.

An episode of mystery, intrigue and colourful characters. After all it wouldn't be Hidden Wiltshire without at least one of these elements and we have all three! We begin with a chat about what we've been up to in the last two weeks since the previous episode. Glyn's excited about his discovery of a new bottom, and an old coffin trail to Steeple Ashton which included a stone bridge built, we think, by well-known West Country stonemason Andrew Ziminski. His book “The Stomemason” is thoroughly recommended (see link below). Also in the last two weeks Glyn and Paul both separately did a walk around the Fonthill Estate which will be the subject of the next podcast in two weeks time. Meanwhile Paul suffered the ignominy of being caught with his head in a muddy puddle by a BBC film crew whilst he was searching for the very well hidden fairy shrimp. We also talk about our plans for Hidden Wiltshire including our first outside location broadcast with a special guest; Hidden Wiltshire walks with some experts from “another organisation”; and the new Hidden Wiltshire Shop on the website (link below). We then go on to talk about the Folly Wood walk. You can follow the route in the link below. This was a location recommend to us by local artist David Alderslade who has painted some remarkable pictures of the famed tree you will find. See the link below. Between them Glyn and Paul did the walk three times in the space of five days. There was so much to see., and slight re-routing to recce. The walk was the story of bizarre works of art; blocked footpaths; a moated enclosure which was the location for a gatekeeper's lodge into the Bishops of Salisbury's deer park; mysterious and touching stories of ghosts and incredible personal sacrifice; and a tree with an adjacent cave that was like something from the imagination of J.R.R. Tolkein. We also encounter some fascinating and lovely people. Sculpture, poet and illustrator Mark Whelehan and his dog Crook, and Hidden Wiltshire followers Melanie May and Wayne Ford – see the links below to their stunning Instagram feeds. We then arrive at a beautiful peaceful woodland called Oakfrith Wood, visit the pretty village of Urchfont and round off with a climb onto Salisbury Plain with its far reaching views. This is one of those walks where it doesn't really matter where you start. You can begin in Easterton, Urchfont or New Plantation on Salisbury Plain. There's even a pub, the Royal Oak at Easterton. We finish with a reminder about the offer to listeners of the podcast from Lowa Boots UK. You'll need to listen to the podcast for details of how you can save 20% on their walking boots and shoes. The music and sounds in the podcast are provided by the multi-talented Steve Dixon. The piece in the Introduction is entitled “The Holloway”, whilst the piece introducing us to the walk is entitled “My Daughter” which is a collaboration between Steve and Dave Guiville.

"She turned to him and pulled her lips into what he knew must be a smile" This week we're reading John Williams' sleeper hit "Stoner" which, contrary to Paul's assumption, is not a "1990s drug romp", but a 1965 novel about the quiet, unassuming life of a quiet,unassuming man, William Stoner.  The book was largely ignored at the time of its original publication and famously took nearly half a century to become a hit, which leads Rachael to consider some other literary late bloomers. Meanwhile Paul takes it upon himself, apropos of nothing, to put together a bangin' dance remix of the Stoner audiobook… This week's rating scale: How much would you pay for it?

If you really want to know Paul, study 2 Corinthians.  Paul’s world was falling apart.  He cared deeply for the church in Corinth.  While in Ephesus, in an effort to help the Corinthian church, Paul wrote Corinthians “A”.  The Corinthians wrote Paul back.  He then wrote 1 Corinthians (Corinthians “B”).  He sent Timothy and Erastus to work with the church … to no avail.  In order to “fix things” he then made a painful visit to Corinth – that didn’t work either.  Paul then wrote 2 Corinthians (Corinthians “C”).  He then sent Titus to help. Meanwhile Paul was run out of Ephesus.  While on the road he was criticized and minimized.  He endured a painful “thorn in the flesh” – possibly something in his eye.  He asked God repeatedly to remove it.  God didn’t.  The thorn remained to keep Paul from becoming conceited.  Paul never saw the healing of his own infirmity.  God said to him “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness (2 Cor. 12:9). How did Paul handle it when his world was crumbling?  He finds an ability to rejoice in the Lord.  He found purpose for his life before the Lord.
