After a break, Jo and Roger are back and delighted to introduce our podcast listeners to a new business in Kingswear. It was a real treat to chat to Gemma on a sunny Sunday morning, back where it all began.

The Kingswear Coffee Company, which is where this podcast originated, closed in September last year. But in October, the shop reopened with a new look and a different vibe. Gemma, who is behind the new venture, joins us to talk about the business, her background and how opening the Petite Pantry has impacted her life.

For this episode, we met the incredible Janet Kidson. Many of us know her name from the Facebook group - Dartmouth News and Support, which she dedicates a great deal of time and effort to. But she also finds time for the Dartmouth Food Bank, a cat rescue and helping to run the local hall. She seems to be a woman that just gets things done! And she has survived bank raids and terrorist attacks with the same admirable practicality and humour.

This time it's just Roger and Jo, talking about what's going on in the village, the closure of the coffee shop and the arrival of the church bells.

Also, if you are interested in doing a paper round for Jo, get in touch with her for more details.

In this episode we learn about the fascinating journey travelled by Tricia Daniels. And travel has been a constant in her life. Not only did she have a full career with British Airways, she was key to promoting Dartmouth as a port for visiting cruise ships.

We talk marinas, lifeboats, tractors and super yachts with Jeff, a regular visitor to the coffee shop and the initiator of Bovril on the drinks menu. This wide-ranging discussion explores many of Jeff's interests, and it still feels as if we only scratched the surface. We hope you enjoy this episode.

This time we have a lovely conversation with Jan Trevorrow about Worldwide Knit in Public Day taking place on 8 June. Jo and I also talk about the current cryptosporidium outbreak and how we are dealing with it locally.

This time we talk to Alison Timms, a local resident who has initiated and organised an open gardens event in Kingswear next month. She is also an independent funeral celebrant - which leads to a fascinating insight into a fairly unknown profession. Many thanks for Alison for a delightful and informative conversation.

In this episode we finally get to talk to Cliff Taylor. Cliff has worked on the Ferry in Kingswear for more than 40 years. He is everyone's favourite ferryman! We talk about what the ferry means to the village and his other more recent venture into international aid missions to Ukraine.

Today we talk to Peter Sissons, a former resident of the historic property Brookhill in Kingswear and now living just outside the village in Brixham. Peter has had a fascinating life with a variety of careers as well as a wide-ranging knowledge of local history and beyond.

Jo B and I introduce today's podcast with our usual chat about positives and what's going on in our lives in Kingswear. After that, there is a fascinating conversation with Jo Griffin about her activities around the village, including the church, the new bells and the community allotment among other things.
