Cromer and Sheringham are well worth a visit. Smaller, but much nicer than Yarmouth.

Really pleased to see Great Yarmouth still maintaining its charm. Loved the old machines in the penny arcade

I've known Yarmouth since 1954 and each decade a little bit of it disappears, like....South Dene's caravan site stretching from harbour mouth to the pleasure beach...The waxworks...The ferry service to the Netherlands...all the department stores...the vibrant outdoor market with the chip stalls...The pleasure beach when it was free admission & Wellington pier when it had show's ( were the fish and chips cooked in oil or beef dripping) nice vlog by the way 👍

I’m Frumptarn mesen, and we regularly went to Yarmouth. It’s a big part of my childhood. Loved it then and still do now. Excellent vlog as usual, and nice to see you enjoyed it

Surely it'd be better for businesses to slash their prices to get people through the turn styles. I'm not talking about people selling goods, I mean places like the pirate golf and the model village. Those prices would put me off but half it and I'd be in. I'm sure thousands of others think the same way. It's better to have 500 people paying five quid than 50 people paying ten quid.

Seeing this video brought back SO many memories of GY, lost count of how many times I’ve been then since I was young to now my ripe old age of 65 !

Was there recently on a bank holiday weekend and did not come away with a good impression - it's amazing what a bit of sunshine and about 1/6th as many people does for a place. Now I wouldn't mind going back!

James, just up the coast is Winterton-on-Sea. There are Norfolk Round Houses that you can stay in. The beach and dunes are great. Some of the 'Dads Army' programme was filmed in the area.

Really enjoyed that walkabout James. GY is a lovely town & so clean.

For all its faults, still home . Thanks for such a positive presentation!

My late parents always went GY for coaching holidays never been myself but looks nice .i enjoy your vlogs both with or without Helen

Glad you liked it. Living in Norwich its alway been my go too seaside spot. The beach next door at Gorleston on Sea is worth a look. North Norfolk is another place that's worth a trip, very picturesque.

Great to see you in Norfolk! Yarmouth is a classic English seaside town. It's a shame you didn't get to experience some of the coast line further up in north Norfolk

Happy memories of visiting Great Yarmouth when the kids were young, always really enjoyed it. Loved going to the circus and the shows at the pier theatre

Brilliant, you should go to Norwich and Wroxham on the Broards. Norwich is amazing and take a Boat tour on Broards. They do a tour of Cathedral that you can probably record. My sister lives near by if you wanna Park up.

I used to stay in the Hopton holiday park not too far from Gorleston. Back then, you can walk from Hopton to Gorleston via the beach. Not sure if you can do so now since they've been placing boulders on the more vulnerable areas in order to combat the coastal erosion. Great Yarmouth is a great place to spend a few days. You certainly don't realise how much you do walk. Great vid, good sir. Always good to see these places again.

That fish and chips sounded tasty, 100% sold. Nice area too. Cheers for the video

If you go to tourist Information and ask for details of the town wall you can explore the medieval town wall or just go and find it. Some of it is at the side of Sainsburys car park, a good place to start maybe?

I watch Walk With Me Tim. It’s his hometown, so has featured Great Yarmouth quite a lot. It really looks a great place for a family holiday, or even just a short break. Really enjoyed your take on it.👍

No need to apologize for Helen's absence -- though she is, without doubt, an asset to your videos -- you do a great job on these entertaining walks. It is sad though to see how many business spaces are closed, especially in the covered malls. Same thing in my corner of Canada; small retailers have taken a terrible beating thanks to globalization, COVID and insane price rises.

Loved this mate , grew up in Yarmouth till the age of about 35 , this brilliant, great work 👌

We went to great Yarmouth in August, took the 7 year old granddaughter to the oldest indoor circus, it was fantastic xx

Thanks for sharing your visit to Gt Yarmouth. I lived there for 23 years. Saw many changes. Now live in West Sussex near Chichester. Some great beaches down this way too. Thanks again Mike

Good Times shop is awesome I went there wen I was in Yarmouth got a couple of cds from there few years ago now glad it's still going

Nice to hear Del Shannon singing “ So long baby” takes me back.

Looks smashing 😊 As a fellow Midwife I can imagine Helen is very busy in September it being around 9 months since Christmas 🎅She’ll be ready for a break

We love seeing u not jus Helen lol wat a lovely full time job you have see some beautiful places really liked the flint walls on church loads of history omg could almost taste those fish an chips could hear crunch with fish so yummy X glad u had a good day and loved that you took us with you ❤😊

Love the content mate, i have watched from the start of your journey and so pleased the channel is growing for you, may long it last

Great vid James, another weekend place to visit, much love😊

The only church ⛪ you like, church taverns, and church Inn 😅 awesome

I used to holiday in Great Yarmouth every year as a child great family place. Gosh & the model village is still there 😁

Thanks James I have never been there but looks great ,enjoyed that walk with you

Love Yarmouth, my parents took our family there every year and we all wanted to go back the following year, I will always have a soft spot the place, so glad you enjoyed it mate and thank you for sharing this fantastic vlog 👍

I use to love that arcade of shops there were always antiques to find , what a shame it’s so quiet!

Love your vlogs James with and without Helen ❤

Great vlog again James totally agree about pubs was in the other night tennis on one tv football on another and bloody jukebox playing looks a lovely place Great Yarmouth

Mate btw saltburn is my favourite and local beach to go too wish I bumped into you..I was there Saturday and was absolutely packed as hottest day of year...also the pier in chippy probably the best at saltburn..it’s expensive but worth it

Love the sea! Even in stormy weather. Brilliant this, those fish n chips looked good x

Thanks for that video James, I was there a couple of months back but only had a few hours so it was nice to see all the places I missed. All the best, David

I loved Great Yarmouth as as kid,I thought it was the best place in the world. Hot doughnuts on the pier in the rain on my summer holidays. Great video ,thanks James.

At 8:32 there was an admiring smile for you James. 😮

Oh im salivating at the fish and chips 😋 definitely looked best one yet. Loved the tour as never been to Great Yarmouth and beach looked really good. Enjoy rest of your week James 😊

As always great video... much love from another Barnsley lad

Many thanks for that James - the nearest I've been was way back in the sixties driving a 46 ft. cruiser up Breydon Water into the teeth of a summer gale - all the other vessels fell in behind me, presumably thinking I knew what I was doing! It took full throttle to keep going forward but we eventually made it. 😆

What a great vlog, you certainly put a lot of effort in to show the area and attractions. The fish and chips looked really good and so did the pint. Looking forward to the next one. Kay and Paul x

Well done fantastic as always. Great filming and fun. Love these

Another great vlog mate stayed. At that park where you parked up few years back and a one caister nice place is Yarmouth keep up the good work 👍

Good to see Great Yarmouth again the place is looking well, spent some time on the construction of that power station just there behind the van lifers location, some great times and worked with a great bunch of lads

Always looking forward to see a new Vid James and Helen, but we rerun the ones you have already done, loved them all, keep up the great work both of you, Dave and Lynda

another brilliant video james them fish and chips look really nice ive never been to great Yarmouth what a beautiful place it is very pretty and a nice clean beach. 😊

Nice video J. Brings back some distant memories although the main holidays for me with mum and dad were in Walton on the Naze and Frinton which have awesome beaches as well. I am sure the last time I went to Great Yarmouth we went to banger racing but I have no idea if its still there.

Great blog James looked a decent place and beaches lovely . Well done 🎉🎉x

Years ago, Jim Davidson own the Pier. Met him in Long John Silver's Bar, so down to earth, no Heirs and Grace's, just a genuinely affable bloke

I always watch your videos on an evening,all settled with a beer and you come on with fish and chips. Bloody starving again now again lol

Nothing wrong with winging it, no preconceptions and less bias, it gives for a true account of what you find. Great video, thanks James.

Almost my home turf! I live about 10 minutes from Great Yarmouth so it's a regular day out for me, glad you enjoyed your visit. It has it's dodgy parts but watching the video I think you managed to avoid them! lol. Safe travels buddy.

I live in Southwold (Hamstead on Sea) and we LOVE Gt Yarmouth. Loads to do, proper seaside resort.

Always liked Gt Yarmouth as a kid. Tend to avoid Weatherspoons though, they're like drinking halls and I refuse to pay Tim Martin anything.

So, I'm a US citizen, but also dual UK citizen (my mother and her family are from London/Kent area). Last time i was over in the UK was 2006 (so at this point, the longest I've gone without a visit back). Spent much time over there as a kid visiting grandparents & family, and lived over there for a bit as a younger adult - would visit every few years pre 2006 (when my daughter was born, and my UK granny died). I used to love the holidays we'd take on the coast growing up - mostly the south coast and Cornwall. TBH I have no desire to go back and visit London, but I'd love to explore the parts of England I've never visited. Your videos have given me an idea to rent a van and do a month of UK "van life" travel. Looks like it could be a cheaper option than hotels/AirBnB and coach/car rental/train travel - and I could see much more. Going to investigate the possibilities! Thanks for the videos mate! All the best to you and Helen.

Honest good stuff👍

lovely day out fish an chips looked great xx

Oddly enough James we teavelled down from Rhyl to Great Yarmouth on Sunday for the week, I did think it was your van I spotted on the prom. We had a trip to Lowestoft today and off to Hunstanton tomorrow.

Another good video James we love Yarmouth especially the new market food hall. We are due to go there in a couple of weeks, in fact right where you parked up. keep up the good work mate and Carry On Regardless. Also I think you have made a good career choice for the future, you seem to take to presenting very well along with Helen.

Hi James .. Really enjoyed the sound of the sea Never been to Great Yarmouth so again it'll be my visit as now too decrepit to travel that far from Somerset. It looks like an old fashioned seaside town. I loved the old wall at the church they get me every time - as I touch as feel the vibes and only wish bricks could talk. I haven't had fish and chips for ages but every time you post, especially at the seaside, I can smell them and get tempted ! What a quaint ginnel so vintage looking. Reminded me of my late 70's college days in Weymouth. Oh yes, that's another place to go - Dorset. Keep up the good work you have no idea how much I look forward to your vlogs. You are wasted on youtube I still think you need a TV series . Take Care. Janice 👵 xxx

Thanks for taking us on this outing where we've not visited for 65 years. Really enjoyed the fish and chips, can we do it again please.❤❤😊

Should have gone on the Gt Yarmouth eye ( Big Wheel) for some panoramic views

That brings back some memories. Havnt been there since I was a kid many years ago lol. Loving yr travels James. Looking forward to seeing ur side kick when she’s not at work. Sithee Maxxx

Love your videos mate. Keep them coming . Scotsman watching from upstate New York.

Really enjoyed your video james ❤thumbs up as usual

Norfolk has some stunning beaches. Southwold also nice. This weekend is Holmfirth and Huddersfield food fests. Some great pubs in Holmfirth with O’Briens and Magic Rock, The Nook

Try Thorpeness it’s a little village on the Suffolk coast it’s like something from a fairy tale it’s a beautiful place I’d say your be better of going to Southworld instead of Lowestoft I think your going to be rather disappointed with Lowestoft maybe try Southworld instead then travel down to Thorpeness and you could go into Aldeburgh afterwards which is only a couple of miles from Thorpeness 😎

I wintered there a couple of years back and am thinking of doing it again this year, with the Norfolk Broads close by it's a great place, obviously most things are closed then but it's still got a nice vibe and the weather is milder that further north.

You made my evening with a new video, James. Really interesting as always. I’ve never been to Great Yarmouth or Norfolk but the beach looked lovely. Very typical seaside town although not as down at heel as some are. Absolutely head and shoulders above those you visited in Essex, though. Loved the old timey amusements/penny arcade! I’d love to go there, right up my strasse 😂 Aren’t you getting a bit sick of eating fish and chips now? Maybe you need to try a Wetherspoons cheapo meal or a Chinese etc. You could hear the crunch on that batter though 😀

Hi james I wouldn't want too be a fire fighter down that narrow street ginnel,those f&Cs looked champion bit off putting being empty. If that was magpie @whitby they'd be queuing around the corner.great vlog once again.

The Internet can be really useful when used to show us all new places to visit, like Great Yarmouth but its destroyed so much as well like that Shopping Arcade. Thanks James, Looks 'Great' !!

Hi James, I used to take my girlfriend to Great Yarmouth most Sundays, great place to go when you are in your teens. We have now been married over 49 years. If you are down this way again try Sheringham. It's completely different to Yarmouth but has some nice independent shops and a steam railway oh and some pubs. We alway have fish & chips in the Trawler opposite the clock tower. Like the videos when Helen takes you on a 10 mile hike.

My neck of the woods down the road in Lowestoft,should have grabbed your chips of the market mate bangin! Gt yarmouth used to be rave central back in the day,good times

We had a small guest house in Great Yarmouth in the seventies just opposite the pier it was one of the happiest time of my life, l use to take my dog on the beach each morning before cooking the breakfasts happy memories.

What a lovely beach have only been through Yarmouth once. Didn't get the chance to look around. ❤

Great review I love Great Yarmouth I was there last month for a couple of days.Been going for donkey s year's.

I do love fish and chips, but refuse to pay the current prices. I am not a fan of McDonalds, but for example, a large Big Mac meal with drink and fries is £5.99. These fish and chips with water are double that. I am thinking about making my own fish and chips, haven't done it for years but I still have a deep fat fryer that has barely been used and has been sat in a cupboard for years.

Great video James keep them coming.

Been to Great Yarmouth, once was enough! However that was one of your best vids, Why? Because you didn't add any music but let us hear the local sounds. Please do that more often.

Thanks for another great video man , keep up the great work

Enjoyable video, thank you. We live in a village on the Broads and have plenty of room on our drive which you are very welcome to use if you wish. Steve & Di.

Nice place James great vlog ..👍🏼👍🏼

Enjoyed that!..had preconceptions about GY being a dump?..would happily pay it a visit now?!👍

Someone else mentioned Somerset Coast, only 26 miles but there's some hidden treasures. There's trad seaside, Weston-super-Mare and smaller Breen. Breen Down is a stunning walk, the carpark is the beach. Kilve is quiet and beautiful. Further down theres a waterfall into the sea off the cliff. Time that vist with the tide being out, then head to Watchet for great fish, chips and pubs.

Hi from Canada. Ex Pat from UK. Been to a lot of the places you visited however in the 60’s and 70’s. Things have definitely changed but not for the better!

Great video mate, as always.

Own a caravan on a parkdean place at great Yarmouth,love it, especially gorelston beach, fantastic 👍👍

used to go there as akid 65 years ago loads takeaways sold jellied cow heels and bowls of green peas and mint sauce

Hi, Now I need to go to Great Yarmouth, I went 14 years ago, I used to live in Wisbech , now I'm based in London, greetings!

I went to Great Yarmouth, only for a few hours (part of a coach holiday) i wasn't so struck, probably needed more time really, like you said it's a big place. It's ideal for families though.

Hi James, you should try ‘pipers’ in Tenby the best fish and chips ever !!!

Who needs a gym when you're out touring these towns and cities and putting in the miles. I like when you can wonder about without a lot of people around, you can see things better. Hopefully the weekends, holidays and Summers can bring in enough money for the city to survive. Really liked that church. Interesting to see the buildings made of flint, had to do some reading up on that. I knew our Native Americans used flint for tools and weapons but didn't realize a lot of walls in the UK were made of that material. Hope you had a nice park-up for the night. Your friend there had some prime real estate for his rig. Thanks for the tour of Great Yarmouth. 👍

very good video James.. nice day for you too.. ATB.. Take Care. 👍🙏

I’ve never been. It sounds like a cliche but it looks really quite smart and well looked after as you said. Nice to see the sea, sat here in February.
