The WYE is soooooooooo dirty full of farm poo flowing into it one of the dirty rivers you can swim in from the forest of Dean

What a picturesque village, both by air and land. So many quaint little shops. With that many bookshops, JoAnna would have just been in heaven! She searches out book stores wherever we go! Loved the drone footage and image Andrew. It really shows off England's natural beauty. I love that Vicky seems to be in the videos more and more - how is she feeling about the YT life? Great video you two, we both really enjoyed it! Hope you are both doing well despite the troubles we've been seeing. Chat soon!

Many thanks Paul and it’s been an arduous week with the troubles but we’re away in the van at the moment so trying to not let politics, the troubles and the violence intrude on our time away - thanks so much for both watching and enjoying the tour. We spent a good few hours in the shops and really enjoyed perusing them all. Vicky is a little camera shy tbh so we shall see how it goes it future episodes ☺️ Really appreciate the comments and kind words and catch up soon 👍🏻👍🏻

An adventure packed episode this week. I think Oscar is safe from Kestrels, we did see a Goshawk in Northumberland recently, now they're huge, and I think anything rabbit sized would be prey. The dip in the Wye looked fun, trying to swim with a 360 camera looked a bit tricky though, I expect the water temp was very invigorating. So we know who the better driver is, but who is the better cook?

Thanks for watching Andy and it was a really enjoyable day or two and yes Oscar is safe from any predatory birds 🦅 Swimming one handed was a challenge but all in all good cause 🤣 I really enjoyed it and it was lovely and warm once you were in. Your question of course will make for future content in another episode so thanks for the idea 💡 All the best and look forward to more of Cornwall later👍🏻

Great video Andrew! Looked like a lovely riverwalk and a very nice day. We rented kayaks this summer for a paddle down our local river. We had a great time and think we will be buying our own - waiting to see if they go on sale over the winter. Loved all those shops in town, especially that iron monger shop you visited - I would love that type of store. And £10 per night sounds like quite a bargain for that beautiful location! Great to see you and Vicky and the dogs! Really enjoyed this adventure! Have a great weekend!

Thanks for watching Paul and we are quite set on the kayak idea - likewise we will be looking at any sale prices too ! We really enjoyed a good wander and mooch around the town and it’s always good to patronise the local businesses too. We stayed for two nights and loved visiting Ross and the site was the ideal spot for our base. Thanks again and all the best - catch up soon 👍🏻

Sorry for the late comment on this one Andrew. I watched as soon as it was released and intended to leave a comment at the time but ..busy summer! Glad to have met Ralph & Oscar - what cuties they are and look to be an amazing part of the family! I understand Oscar lagging behind a bit. Our 14 year old loves to hike with us. He has the will but not the way anymore. I actually carry him in a doggy backpack now, letting him out from time to time to "hike" for himself. Dogs just make our lives so much better, don't they? Getting ready to watch the brand new video now!

A man’s best friend as they say ! No need to apologise Paul and thanks again for watching. Funnily enough we were talking about the dog rucksacks for Oscar as soon he won’t be able to manage the full hike - we’ve just found out Ralph has a heart murmur 😔 although at present it doesn’t appear to deter his appetite or ability for a good walk 🙏🏻 All the best and take care 👍🏻

Sorry for the late comment Andrew, have me mom here with us this summer and doing endless DIY projects! I'm always struck by the lack of trees on the hills and mountains over there but then you have a beautiful patch of forest. What a hike to that amazing waterfall! Well worth the effort to get there! Glad the weather cooperated a little bit for you both, definitely makes hiking a little more enjoyable - did sound a bit windy though. The goats were adorable. I think I would have spent my whole day with them! Fantastic video my friend, really enjoyed the look around! Hope you both are doing well, can't wait for the next installment! Take care pal!

No need to apologise Paul and thanks for watching ! Life is busy !! Loved the hike and if it had been warmer (and not so windy!) I might have had a dip (but that's for another video!) We almost went straight home but decided to take the route through Galloway anyway and glad we did as it dried up enough for the walk and we got to see the goats, the monument and the falls. Good luck with the DIY and catch up soon :)

Nice to see Vicky in a video, and she looked like she was quite enjoying herself driving the van! Sorry to hear about the van springing a bit of a leak, hopefully that is the extent of it's growing pains for quite a while. Lovely little campground you ended up at...loved the animal sounds in the background, very relaxing. I'm looking forward to the ferry crossing and trip to Northern Ireland! Hope you all are doing well, always wondered to see a new video from you my friend (I'm still on a bit of a YT break). Take great care!

Many thanks Paul and she loves driving the van ! We had a bunch of fixes undertaken last week and just down to the oven grill igniter being replaced ( it doesn’t fire currently) so fingers crossed that’s all 🤞🏻 The little site was a hidden gem . These travel videos are so different to the landscape photography ones to make and it’s early days but leaned much while making the first three and got plans on how to improve going forward- enjoy the break and catch up soon 👋🏻

Looked like a great place to stay over, Andrew. Shame about the teething troubles with the new van. I guess it's like having a snagging list with a new house, getting it out and using it is the only way to find the faults.

Thanks Andy and it was a stunning little stop over - we have learned much about the van and its faults (most of which have been resolved now thankfully) through getting out and about which as you say is the real only way to discover them . Thanks for watching 👍🏻👍🏻
