There was a wean throwing stones in the water. Although he had stopped both he and his father where on the rocks above and luna just refused to get her ball because she wanted the stones. That ball was her favourite and I can't buy them anymore but she just wouldn't pick it up.

When I went to the fair some 40 years ago that's what it was. Just 2 days with the streets packed with stalls and people but now we have the pound shop and a thing called consumer rights, so there's not as many people trading from market stalls the in way it was years ago. Its also true to say that children are also not traded there anymore so it's not to say that all things that come to a end is bad. Back to the mordern day with its health and safety and human rights not to mention animal rights and it apeers its now spread over 4 days instead of just the Monday and Tuesday. You can go online and download the event times. This year like last year has heavy horses followed by a parade through the town centre with vintage cars on the Saturday Sunday main event is Sand Castle building followed by kite flying. Need I say more. Just no point going on a Sunday. They should've just kept it to the Monday and Tuesday

When I was a child I knew a old man who was traded at a fair when he was a young child.They would've be hired out to a farm where they would work for 6 months then their parents would get paid at the end of it. The farmers had to house them and feed them. Some where better than others. At the end of the six months all the children and farmers would go back to the fair and rebid for the following 6 months. If you look at some old farm building you can still see some with white washed outbuilding with stone steps on the end gable going to the attic. Thats the kind of place where the boys wouldve slept. The old man i knew died on my 8th birthday

Thanks for your comment. I like to show a place in the video as it is, but it can make the video longer than folk want to watch. It also means that if I go somewhere that's not great then I would still post the video even though it may not be great. You Tube is just a hobby for me and i dont earn any money from it so i dont have to make popular videos. That was my 1st time to walk that mountain and its one that most people could do if they just take their time although I started getting cold at the top. I had a fall a couple of weeks ago while making a youtube video and badly cut my head. I was in the city centre and got to hospital pretty quick but that makes me realise, what if it happen somewhere like Errigal. Packing a first aid kit would be advisable somewhere like that as you would be a few hours of a hospital. You should try watching youtube on a large 4k screen with a external speaker. It's even better

Brilliant news. Thanks for letting me know. 😊

All I can say is I now know all about Gravity. Doctor give me another 2 week sickline. Every cloud has a silver lining.

Your welcome

Thanks

​@@AustellHenderson👍

I'm on the mend thanks 😊

@@benharper4904 Hi Ben. Good news is the rear seats are easier to take out. Only awkward bit is unclipping the electric cables for the seatbelt NOT ON Warning light. They are clip in place and not much room for your hand. When you put your seats back in then no need to reclip them in place, then next time you take them out it's a breeze. I'll put a link to the video below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIeZeWCdi9WKd5I Just rambert when putting the seats back in each one must go back in their original place or the seatbelts won't work

My head ok now as long as I don't touch it. Bit awkward trying to sleep at night but my body still sore. I'm just taking it easy and let nature take its course. I be releasing a video on Friday morning telling more of the story along with photos that where taken by others. I realise just how lucky I've been.

Take your time and don't rush anything time is a good healer as the saying goes

They did give me a CT Scan. The video will be uploaded shortly

I can't thank you's enough. I was very embarrassed at the time. My head feels ok but my body feels like a old man. I cant sit up when I'm lying down on my bed. I'm having to slowly turn round and use my arm in order to push myself up. I'm taking a week of work on the sick so hopefully the pains will go away soon. As time has passed I realise just how lucky I was, considering the height that I fell back from. Other people have fallen from less heights and not survived. Wee Luna doing ok. She went with my brother and got to see the rest of the parade and I'm sure was eating lots of chips and burgers from the ground. When I got out of Hospital I got Luna but the parade was just finishing. I took a run over in the car to look at the bench where I fell and I hadn't long to wait before the local band parade that returns to the mem came past, so I seen a bit anyway. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks

Thanks. I'm putting a sick line into my work for next week and asked them to cancel my holidays, so I'll be able to take my holidays later and finish the bedroom

@@AustellHenderson Smart move 👍

My Brothers Brotherinlaw died around 8 years ago when he fell of a bar stool, so I'm so lucky I came off so lightly taken the distance that I had fallen

It all concrete. My head hit the corner of a concrete slab and that's why the cut on my head was a V shape. When it was covered in blood the first aiders couldn't tell if it was one or two cuts. They then cleaned the cut up, put a badge on and cleaned the blood of my neck.

Still alive but my body very sore. My head not to bad.

@@jamesfriery I've put up the two bug hotels today. See how long before the local wildlife moves in. The Tourch is quite good as well. I might go back down next weekend and get another couple. I'm working on my bedroom this week. The waterboard is turning off the water to the housing estate, so I can change the stop valve. Been waiting almost a year for one to be installed outside my home on the street, but no success. So hopefully it goes well tomorrow then I can get on and finish the bedroom

@@colinblythe3710 I've left a link to a faulty lidl power washer that I got. The video just about 5 mins. In this case all went well although still abit of hassle. kzbin.info/www/bejne/famaaHawnLyIec0

@@cpparkinson5109 Lot of info there👍 I was disappointed that there were no Horses. I've been told by other family members that there were the last time they were up there. The Sham fight was a wee bit of a sham too. I had imagined that we would be looking down a hill at King William & King James moving towards each other on Horseback followed by a few men in uniform, doing their battle, but then I do have a good imagination 😀. But what I saw was what it was. Next year it might be better as I'm not expecting as much. The Parade itself was good as I actually seen and heard Pipe Bands playing their Pipes and not just walking past me beating a single drum beat. I noticed the field parking for the Air Ambulance and a local man told me that the farmer who owns that field give 100% of the money raised to that charity, so I'll go to that field next year. I must look up them lakes in Google maps and I might take up my Electric Scooter so I can do the Canal Path while Luna walks or runs beside me.

They give a 3 Year warranty but want you to jump through hoops to get it.

Bit wet but not soaked too much. We're having a bad weather this summer, although the rain actually made the Fire & Light Show better. The beams from the spot lights showed up well in it, so it like they say, every cloud has a silver lining.

Glad it helped. Mine still going strong

@@AustellHenderson gonna snap one up now. Much appreciated.

@FiachNolan1 only bad thing with them is the grass box. I no longer use mine. I just skim over my lawn every 2 to 3 weeks and let the trimming remain on the ground.

@@AustellHenderson Oh that won't be a problem for me. I'm not out to get greensman of the year or anything 😁

Thanks for your comment, but I had no choice with only 3 bands. If only I had knew their route I mightve done better. The sun was low in the sky so some views where impossible for the camera to get.

The small accordion band was better than the bigger flutebands... from a Kerryman.

@@Dhhhhj27 Barron Accordion Band would be larger than it was that night, but like most of these small local parades, not all Band Members turn up. Some are working Shifts while others are away on their Summer Holidays. The 12th of July is a public holiday here in Northern Ireland, so that the day when all the bands would have most Members taking part. Even to this day there would be a large number of people here who want to avoid the 12th of July and they would leave to go abroad on their summer holidays

@AustellHenderson Didn't see the name but I've seen a video of them playing in a hall, far better than Dunloy accordion.

The best thing about free outdoor live entertainment is that I can have Luna with me. If it was a paid event then Dogs wouldn't be aloud.

Willow was perfect except for her scrounging., but she had to be put to sleep on December 2021 due to Cancer.

@@AustellHenderson its not scrounging, its food security and equality. RIP Willow

Explosions aren't uncommon here in Northern Ireland

@@AustellHenderson 🤔🤣👍

Maybe we could meet half way and use the Scots Gaelic Translation. Lunnainndorie

Take it you enjoyed the sight of a beautiful parade and sound of great bands who know we're they LIVE ❤😂😂

@@jamesfriery There was about 125 bikers and they would have to pay about £10 to take part, so that around £1250, but I sometime wonder if its the best way to collect money. Farmers would do tractor runs in the Same way, but here in Northern Ireland Police are still under threat of being murdered and as such they have a higher wage. It would be interesting to know what it cost the Police Service of Northern Ireland to provide Two Police Motorcycles. They would've had to do a risk assessment for them first. They where there over a hour before the run began. It could be that it cost the police more for providing the Policemen than what was raised in the collection. But that's the same for all public events. We had a local band parading so they could rise some money. They got just under £200 but It took 2 Police cars and a police motorbike. It would be cheaper for the Police to make a £200 donation so the event didnt take place. Northern Ireland is broke at the min with the police service being X amount of million short.

What can I say. The education system let me down. The thing about videos on you tube, they don't have the same safe guards like the BBC would have. For me it's just a hobby and I make no money from it and as such I'm not going to spend much time researching. I just walk Luna and if something interesting is happing then I point and shot with my GoPro. No fancy mics, lights or script. Sometimes it works but often it doesn't. It's just a hobby so I don't mind, but thanks to you I've learnt something new today and as some folk say, you'll never to old to learn something new. If I ever come across a Beating Retreat again then I'll have you to thank when I type out the title. Only problem is my spelling will probably still be wrong, but I do try.

If Luna can't attend a event then I don't go. She event went to my Brothers Funeral and to the meal at a Hotel after

Pity they don't play more during the parade. These young boys not as fit these days compared to the old timmers

@@user-te7bh2fc7n Hi. The fans do not stay on all the time. They only come on when needed and they can run and different speed depending on the heat and not the load. I only use mine to run a 1000watt air fryer, but my inverter never gets hot to touch. As the chips cook and the heating element switches off and on then the fan speed will change. Only thing I can think off is the metal body of the unit helps get rid of heat so it needs a space all around it. If your cables are lose then that would cause heat. I intend to get thinker cables for mine as they would be the hottest part. It comes with a 12 month warranty, so if I was you and you think your unit might be faulty then find something that uses a 1000 watts and run it at that rate for 30 mins or more. It should do it without problem and if it fails then return for a replacement.

@@AustellHenderson Thanks for your reply. I can hold my fingers on inverter case, but comparing to Novopal 1.5 kW with connected refrigirator (85 W load) Renogy has higher temperature in almost similar conditions. I will try to test with a higher load, as you advised, and additionally check the built-in temperature sensor just in case. Currently, the inverter is working well, there was no shutdown due to overheating.

Hi. My friend is away on a foreign holiday at the monent. He also uses the same inverter as me, but he uses a 800watt air fryer with his and a Electric underblanket. He was to give me a new set of power cables so when I meet up with him( could be a few weeks, HGV Driver) I'll make another short video on how the fans work and what temperature the unit, cables and battery become. When I do it I'll put a link to the video here. KZbin should then send you a notification. Hope that helps. The only other thing I'll say about the fans is that cheaper inverters just have them blowing all the time. Not much good if you are using them at night with a electric underblanket as the noise keeps you awake. The fan are there to stop the unit overheating and getting damaged. I used mine during a heatwave in the boot of my car using the full 1000watts and the inverter never cut out. I'm using mine now over a year and it's used most weekends

@@AustellHenderson Thanks. It would be interesting to watch the video. Yesterday I modified the inverter cooling system. Installed an additional 12V board with a temperature sensor to control the fans. Now the fans will start at a temperature of 35 degrees Celsius at low speed. At 55 degrees, the fans will go to maximum speed. RPM are adjusted smoothly depending on the temperature.

@user-te7bh2fc7n it sounds like you know what you are doing but you shouldn't need to do it. I just wondered if your inverter maybe had a fault. My friend still on holidays but when he gets back we'll do a few tests just to see how hot or warm it gets. When I bought mine I payed the small amount extra to amazon for the 3 year warranty as I didn't have much luck with so-called 2000watt inverters before this and it cost alot more. It couldn't run my 800 watt airfryer. I also have anorther 500 watt pure sine wave inverter made by Bestex but I never use it because the fans run the whole time and are to loud when I used it to power my Electric Underblanket. The noise kept me awake
