Our First Q&A 😲 (We Answer ALL Your Personal and Van Life Questions To Us)

[@drenee65]

Started watching you last year. Stumbled on this old video that explained a lot for my curiosities (hope I said that correctly). Thank you🚘

[@pjmom4050]

There's nothing like a coffee in a cozy cafe.....especially in winter! Janine's one pot meals look delicious 😋

[@lararain2801]

I only just got to view this & as lovely as it is to hear you guys answering the questions...just watching those kids playing outside with the ball in the background is sooooo sweet. Also seeing you both by your old van seems strange now you have Morgan. so glad you got your bed sorted !!!

[@pienpakvis6118]

I love that you see your granny often in her final years.

[@LifeistooshortCK]

Hello folks, good answers to some great questions. You two are beautiful people so we hope you do have some kids one day as the world needs more people with the get up and go attitude that you have. The UK is spectacular and we are lucky enough to have seen a lot of it but there is always more to see. Stay safe and enjoy the winter that is on it’s way. Winter is one of my favourite times of the year but my Carol is a sun bunny. We look forward to the day our paths finally cross. I think it’s bound to happen at some point. 😁👍

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Your words are too kind, thank you 😊 We are always on the look out for the little red camper or the sound of a coffee grinder 😅 Look forward to our paths crossing at some point 🙏🙌

Is very refreshing to see how honest you both are, nice that is easy to ve vegan in Uk, here in Finland is difficult even to be vegetarian, but improving. 💚💚

Autumn colour and scenery, the Trossachs area in Scotland is stunning!! Just take some blue sky and sunshine with you. However rain creates the most incredible waterfalls!

Can you park overnight or for more than one day? Yes, you’re able to park your vehicle overnight in most of our ncp car parks, but please refer to the opening times of the specific car park using our find a car park feature. Some of the car parks are not open 24 hours a day, so keep in mind that once the car park closes, you’ll not be able to access your vehicle until the car park reopens the following day. Btw the soya milk at Lidl. And soya milk at Tesco in carton, are equally nice. Lidl especially.

[@melodydonnallie6471]

❤ My Favourite way to spend my lazy Sunday mornings with you guys 😊 It was great to learn about your plans for the future. I cant wait for you to share all your travels with us. I have a feeling that it's going to be epic 😁 ( I can just see travelling around places like Sweden or Austria or through France... Maybe even Canada in the not too distant future... The opportunities are endless. ( Hows about starting a patron page for us 'Those Happy Days' Lovers ?)❤ As always Thanks for this. Stay safe guys & Happy Trails Mx

You are so kind! Thank you. Yes all those adventures sound great - let's do them all 😍

[@wendyclarke3979]

Another brilliant video. Thank you for answering all those nosy questions 😉 Have you been to Northumberland yet? We used to live there and I can honestly say I have always felt ‘honoured’ to have been given the opportunity to live in that wonderful county. Got everything you love. Mountains, forests and beaches, not forgetting the amazing history. Much love to you both 💕💕

[@ThoseHappyDays]

You know what, that sounds brilliant 👏 Can you recommend anywhere in particular in Northumberland? 💚

We used to live in a little village named Ulgham. There’s Alnwick, Bamburgh, Amble, Warkworth, Druridge Bay, Rothbury, Seahouses, Kielder forest, Cragside (National Trust). Drive up the coast to Lindisfarne.

I saw in a pevious comment that you use leisure centres for showers. Is there a membership scheme that allows you to use a certain chain UK wide? I know that's possible in the USA.

There's an app called Hussle...but we just roll up on the day and ask and you can find some great deals that way

[@sarahdossor296]

So I have a great place for you to stay in Scotland....West cost near Fort William you cross on a small ferry (Corran ferry) , onto the ardnamurchan peninsula and travel right to the farthest most tip, Mallaig keep driving to sanna bay beach, There's sand dunes, silver sands, lighthouse,viewing point, a walk between the dunes to the cairns, there's mountains it's truly beautiful, sanna bay beach this it the most westerly point in the whole of the uk and there's lovely walks, there's public loos, free, overnight free parking . Also there a walk called the "ring of fire" it's long13km but think you would love it there's visiter centers, cafes, and eating places ,water sports and on, the further along the peninsula you get the more desolate and wildly natural it becomes.The water can be warm to swim in because the water is warmed by the gulf stream and this causes a mini micro climate that means there are very unusual plant insects birds and animals live and grow that are not usual for such a westerly point.
