This is the channel of Kentish author Adam Colton (please look me up on Amazon or iBooks if you enjoy UK travel writing, psychological fiction or music reviews). Here you will find a selection of journeys - from British Rail route training videos (cab rides), to the legendary Ashford Ring Road in Kent (essentially a cab ride in a car), to bike rides along routes including river paths. If you like 'driver's eye views' this is the place for you.

There are recordings by Kent artists and bands, including a number by topical / humorous mother and son folk duo, Adam Colton and Teresa (find us on Spotify, iTunes and all major UK music sites).

Other items include local interest items from the Hamstreet / Ashford / Romney Marsh area of Kent, including TV appearances - local stuff for local people!

I assume they filmed this at something like 5am in high summer, as there's so few interruptions!

Just shows how much worse Ashford was! It's still pretty bad and overran with roads but it used to be so much worse

Holy cow, I thought this was the original, it's spot on. Adam Garry and Matt make a cool power trio, got to support the boys! It's phenomenal, especially to a solo act on yt like me, cheers!

When visitors used to get lost in Ashford's one way system! I moved away in 1993, so a few things are different from "my" Ashford, but still lots of memories.
