OUR FIRST LOOK AT THE BORDERS, SCOTLAND. Pt 8

[@adventurevanfreddie]

C'mon guys, there are definitely some similarities between Tony and the bull, we're just not sure which😂❤

[@StevenGodfrey3956]

Take that with open arms Tony ! Absolutely fantastic life .......... 10 months eating and doing nothing then 2 months covering 60 ladies !! 😉😉😂 Heaven !!!!

[@ianross04]

The bull's nose slits were smaller and more natural than Mr T's.. 😜 🤣

[@robertpate1303]

Is that tony the little red bull 🐂

[@adventurevanfreddie]

@@StevenGodfrey3956 👍🤣, sounds interesting if not very tiring🤣, 60 ladies, I'll let you know how I get on🤣🥃.

[@gordonsummers8471]

The Boarders, is one of my favourite areas. Paddled and wild camp the River Tweed last September. Paddled from Lynn Station, above Pebbles to Berwick upon Tweed. Some lovely places and great people. Have a great time Tony and Claire

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there Gordon. Yep, the Borders is a great area, we should have visited a long time ago instead of just driving through. Wow, a paddle adventure through the Borders sounds awesome, well done. Many thanks again and all the very best as always, Tony and Claire.

[@gordonsummers8471]

The Leaderfoot Viaduct (at the 3 bridges, was used in the Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, which was said to be in Switzerland.

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hey up again. Interesting again! Thanks for sharing!

[@paolow1299]

Well done folks enjoyed that wee jaunt ..

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there, many thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave the kind comment, it's very much appreciated and we're glad that you enjoyed the wee jaunt. Take care and all the best, Tony and Claire.

[@alanwright8478]

I hadn’t realised how many shades of green there are in our country. The photo of the viaduct proved that and was outstanding. I still like the b/w ones though. A beautiful part of the country you allow us to share with you. Claire’s face said it all when you compared yourself to that bull. Great vlog as usual,Tony, look forward to the next instalment ❤❤🚐🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Al

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there Al. Yep, the UK is so vibrant with colour, especially green. When I served in the military and was sent all over the world, when returning home, it was always great to see the greenery of the UK, simply beautiful. Haha, I don't know what all the fuss is about, I think I have a lot in common with the bull👍🤣😂, unfortunately probably not the same bits Claire would say👍🤣. Our thanks to you as always our friend, have a great week. All the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷

[@brianhenno4744]

Great photography guys 👌👍👏👏

Hi there, that's incredibly kind of you, glad to hear that you are enjoying the adventure. Many thanks and all the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷

[@louisesymonds9963]

Thank you for making me laugh with Claire’s expression at the end! Just lost our dear pooch and there were so many places we wanted to take her. Really enjoyed the history, scenery, food, well everything really! X

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Oh, we're so sorry for your loss, we know only too well what it means to lose a dog...so devastating for you, but hopefully you'll still visit those places. Many thanks for your kind words, they're really appreciated by us both. Take care, chin up and all the very best. Tony and Claire. Xx

[@louisesymonds9963]

Thank you both. I’ve felt quite numb, but did feel a little spark after watching your video. Tony and Claire are the best medicine! We’re planning a little trip at Easter, so we’ll see how we get on without her. Best wishes Team AVF xxx

[@Jimmacdonald109]

So glad you guys are back in the Bonnie place can not wait to see what is in Arran for you safe journeys 👍

Hi there Jim, hope you're well buddy. Yep, it's always a pleasure to visit your beautiful country, Scotland never fails to impress. Take care and all the very best as always, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿📷🚐

Worth a visit is the Union Bridge, oldest chain linked suspension bridge in the world (1820), just been fully refurbished. TD151XQ.

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Ah, thanks for the information Gordon. We've added Union Bridge to our journal for a future visit. Cheers buddy!

[@StevenGodfrey3956]

Absolutely brilliant 🫶 , fantastic photos of Scott's view and the old railway viaduct at Leaderfoot. You were lucky to have a nice shiny day because you know what scottish weather can be like ! That pork belly looked amazing 😋😋 ..... I was drooling !! 😂 Hope you are both well and as always slàinte 🙏🫶💙❤️👋🥃🥃🥃

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there buddy, glad you enjoyed it....and not an Abbey to be seen👍😂. Yep, what a great view from up on Scott's view, amazing, and yes, Claire managed to get some great photos👍📷. Yep, we were certainly lucky with the weather matey, it always shines for us when we visit Scotland💙❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Belly pork was great, but not as good as the steak we have later🤔😉😁. We're both good thank you and we hope that you are also. Slainte as always our friend and our sincere best wishes. 👍💙❤️📷🚐

[@stewartsmith9147]

Hi guys As always Really enjoying the videos Glad to see your still walking behind Claire 😅 Like you guys if there a viaduct near by I will try and go to explore If your ever near Hayward Heath. Ouse Valley Viaduct is well worth a look. An amazing bit of Victorian engineering

Hi Tony and Claire Scotland is great at this time, question though how do you show the van on the maps moving about

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there, many thanks for watching. Yep, Scotland is simply magical. The van/map graphics are a result of TravelBoast, a phone app that is a little time consuming, however is the only thing we've found where we can plot our routes. Hope this helps and all the very best, Tony and Claire.

[@robinknox3569]

Some lovely places in this vlog. I’m based in Ardrossan on the west coast- the main ferry port to Arran -unless the ferry is departing from Troon 😅. I hope my local weather stays kind for you as Arran glows in good light and some of the sunsets are out of this world.

Think Claire has done all the point scoring in this one mate , from the fab bridge picture , to the pilau rice mix , but the icing on the cake was that fabulous put you down look at the end . Had I have been trying to impress in my former youth , I would have walked away at that very moment and admitted defeat . Great vlog both , take care . We start our trek north Wednesday .

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Haha, indeed she did Ken, she definitely got all the points apart from the vegetables in my bloody rice lol, no impressing her this time! Argh, and so your adventures are coming to an end.....however, it is March lol and summer is around the corner. Safe travels and enjoy your last few days mate.

[@bigwill4423]

Great to see you two back in Scotland. To be totally honest, i didn't enjoy the Spain series as much because a lot of that country's scenery is just too arid for my taste. What was Claire's "walkabout" lens there? I use a 24-105 f4 on my canon for that task. As for "wooly bulley"....i think Claires's sideways glance said it all Tony i'm afraid! Lol 😲😁😜 P.S. what happened to your snoz Tony? Sore looking scar on your right nostril mate....couldn't help but notice. Looking forward to the rest of the scotland series! 👍😎😎😎

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there, many thanks for watching. Yep, the Spanish scenery that we visited wasn't the best, however, by visiting these places, it reminds us of why we love Scotland so much lol. Claire's lens of choice was her 24 70 F2.8👍📷. As for the nose buddy, full explanation and reveal here lol: kzbin.info/www/bejne/poSUmoikptqfqtUsi=bEkd0-7sb5qfmMDa Many thanks again and all the best, Tony and Claire. 👍💙❤️🚐📷
