Finally got to watch this 😊. Lovely to see my hometown. Never even notice the blue plaques when you pass them so often haha. Vareys Outdoor shop used to be the Yorkshire Bank - well done Pippa! Thought you were going to play a tune on that piano 😃. I’d love a coffee roaster in my kitchen (maybe a bit smaller though 😆). Snew? Well I didn’t know that that. Great video, really enjoyed it xx

[@CampervanTales]

We would love a coffee roaster too. We oved your home town. It's true what you say about blue plaques in your own area. Thanks Sue xx

[@getawaygeese]

[@WormsEyeView]

I had such a lovely weekend away with you guys

[@CampervanTales]

And us with you, as always. With more fun ahead😀

This vlog has made me want a coffee!

[@CampervanTales]

Swearing in Pippa speak that is🤣

[@WormsEyeView]

@@CampervanTales ewww. Bring on the tea!!!

[@DesGreene]

Enjoyed that, gents👍 I've been umming and ahhing about visiting the C&CC site at Clitheroe for ages. Don't usually stay near towns very often, but it looks really nice! All the best 👍😊 Past tense of snow...I went for "water" 😂

[@CampervanTales]

Thanks for watching Des. It is a nice town. We will go back and visit the castle at some point and get back for more sausages.

[@DesGreene]

@@CampervanTales Meant to ask, how were the sausages? 😁

[@CampervanTales]

@@DesGreene very nice. Much better than supermarket sausages. We can highly recommended a visit.

[@PlanetImo]

Oh! There's a Pippa!

[@CampervanTales]

Our little sister😀

[@Lancastrian501]

Enjoyed your video thanks, Clitheroe's my home town. No Captain James King wasn't born in a bank! 😀His father was the local vicar and owned a private house on that site. It was then a pub before eventually becoming The Yorkshire Bank. The Nat West Bank further down the road was also originally a pub The Dun Horse. Both banks are sadly no more. Somebody told me that banks were keen on taking over the premises of old pubs because they could easily convert the old cellars into bank vaults. Not sure if that's true or not but I suppose it would make sense.

[@CampervanTales]

Thanks for watching and the clarification of the history. We love hearing from people who know more than we have managed to find out. We really liked it there. The sausage shop is brilliant too.

[@stuartwelford7562]

It's s pity you weren't there on one of the market days. Well worth a visit.👍

[@CampervanTales]

We are hoping to be back there at some point soon. Will definitely try to make a market day. We have been to the sheep auction before with my cousin who is a sheep farmer. 😀

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh ghost story time!!! What was the date on the of the newspaper?

[@CampervanTales]

1879

[@motorhomers-r-us]

Clitheroe is near to where we live

[@CampervanTales]

I hope we showed it off ok. We love that area and hadn't been to Clitheroe before. We will be back.

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh yes! Lots of tea!

Looks like a nice place ❤❤❤

[@CampervanTales]

It is lovely. We can recommend it if you get a chance to go.

[@mickylawless1941]

After a hard day of tele-skiing, I get to snuggle up with our cat Emma and watch my loverly friends showing us a great little town. It just dawned on me that Keith would love the non-profit thrift store that Nicole manages. It's the only non-proft thrift store in town. It's part of the Bozeman Help Center. A non-profit that offers crisis counseling, a 24 hour suicide help line and resources and safe haven for domestic/sexual abuse victims. I'm so proud of Nicole and the work she does. Anyway, it was loverly to see Pippa again, as well well as you (Daryl) and Keith. You folk always make my Fridays special. Cheers my friends!

[@CampervanTales]

He would indeed like the shop Micky. Keith is a hoarder and collector. He collects milk bottles with ads on, Observer books, hexnearly has the full set of those now, musical instruments, none of which either of us can play and lastly he collects skulls. That is the old biology teacher in him that he hasn't shaken. We have a freezer full of animal heads that he will get around to boiling up one day so that he has the skull to put on display!!!!!! It is always good to catch up with Pip, we call her our little sister and we get on well with her parents too. Have a lovely weekend they both of you. If you want to hear the proper Clitheroe accent, you may like this uplifting video of a young man who was born and still lives there. He is now quite a celebrity in his home town. kzbin.info/www/bejne/apTOh3p7m8umbbc

[@mickylawless1941]

@@CampervanTales Nicole's dad is a vinyl record collector. He too, will dart into a thrift store to see if he can find a treasure. Nicole's mom doesn't really understand his collection. But they dedicated a room for his stereo and albums. I think that if one has a passion, pursue it. That is why I ski and rock climb. Oh and I have this little passion for a youtube channel. You may have heard of it...Campervan Tales! Cheers!

@@CampervanTales Over here, we do the same with our feline child, Emma. She rules the roast!

[@georgeherman8826]

Kind of funny Keith all bundled up at the top and short pants at the bottom. How is it Bae doesn't get pregnant with the boys around her all the time? Love to hear you all conversing with that unique British accent, it sounds so proper.

[@CampervanTales]

Lol we don't think we sound proper. Keith is always hot lower down but feels the cold more up top😉

[@PaulGloverHowDo]

I was in that Sausage Shop a few week ago, a lttle disapointed as they stopped doing the bean and black pudding ones.

[@CampervanTales]

That's a shame they have stopped making that one. Any reason? There was so much choice in there our flab was well and truly ghasted.

[@PaulGloverHowDo]

@@CampervanTales No, No reason just stopped doing them. Going back about 15 might even be 20 years they had a minimum of 40 different varieties but i dont know what it is, i was always drawn to there bean ones, could be a bit of cowboy in mi blood. Great video as usual.

[@CampervanTales]

It is annoying when a brand or flavour you really like isnt there any more.

[@WormsEyeView]

That was a soggy day wasn't it

[@CampervanTales]

A little moist yep ☔

Cattle market 😪
