ROYAL MINT EXPERIENCE: DAILY VLOGS UK

[@selbino]

Can’t beat the Mint for a day out. 👍🏻

[@David.M.]

Very nice. I didn't realize the Royal Mint was located in Wales. Thank you so much, it was quite interesting. I need to look at their website and explore more.

[@PlanetImo]

Do you know, I only realised it was in Wales a few years ago when I saw it in someone else’s vlog! I had been meaning to go myself every since I saw that. Thanks David. Happy Googling!

[@barbarabennett2058]

The Royal Mint in Llantrisant was on BBC1s Morning Live show either yesterday or today, it looked really interesting to visit. Hope you managed to get your leak in your bathroom sorted and your electric problem as well. x

[@PlanetImo]

Oh wow! What a coincidence! Thanks so much, Barbara. x

[@RetiredLovingIt]

What an interesting place to visit!

[@PlanetImo]

I bet you two would have loved it. I can picture the vlog you would have made in my imagination. I watched another person's vlog of it earlier, after I made this one, and I loved that he picked different things to talk about. People pick up on different things. He was a coin enthusiast.

[@RetiredLovingIt]

@@PlanetImo it definitely is something we would love to see!

[@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854]

What an amazing place

[@PlanetImo]

I can't believe this was the first time we've been and it's been here all my life! Thanks so much, Donny. x

[@karen4you]

The old Wallace and Gromit originals are still my favorite. Nice to have days out with you two. Coinage is so different than ours. Next I want a candy factory tour is there one?

[@PlanetImo]

Hee hee! Not near here. There's a Cadbury's World in England somewhere. Thanks, Karen. x

[@Electrowave]

@@PlanetImo We have a chocolate factory in Haverfordwest - Wickedly Welsh Chocolate. It's only a little factory but still interesting :-) Also, don't they make fudge on Caldey Island? Not sure if they do tours though.

[@BellyBurly87]

That Gromit is amazing x

[@PlanetImo]

I suspect your kids might ave liked him!

[@WormsEyeView]

Hello lovely. I'm playing catch up. This is really interesting!!

[@AxeMoose]

Very much enjoyed this.

[@OutandAboutWithDavid]

Most enjoyable vlog from the Mint, Thank you. Watch out with reflections at 1:25 as you do not want IB being caught. When you filmed from inside to outside at 2:45 I was wondering what you blocked of till I noticed it was on the glass. Looking forward to each day at 5.30pm for the next vlog.

[@PlanetImo]

Ah yes - I was on high alert for the reflection risk and freeze frames it all over the place, but I couldn't spot him in the glass. 😆 Aw, thank you so much, Dave.

[@BellyBurly87]

When I clicked on this I thought it was going to be a sweet factory lol can you tell it's first day of my diet and I'm starving 😂 from Victoria x

[@PlanetImo]

Ah yes... polos, extra strongs, hum bugs.... I'm not helping, am I? Thanks, Victoria. x

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Ha ha, that’s a good one! 🍬

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi Imo,what a interesting video, old coins to now and to see how they are made is brilliant.

[@PlanetImo]

Aw thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I find these sorts of videos really fun to make. :)

[@BEACHLIFE78]

Looks an interesting place to visit nice share 🙂👍

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks, Beachlife! X

[@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854]

Cool mini 😎 penny Lane there is a barbers showing photographs great song from fab four too x

[@PlanetImo]

Ooh yes. I'm going to have that song in my head, now! I fancied doing that number in my band and playing the piccolo trumpet part on my piccolo.

[@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854]

@@PlanetImo oh yes that would be greatx

[@wanderbliss.chronicles]

Good video. I like the way you describe it.

[@jdwono]

Very nice coin show....thanks.

[@PlanetImo]

Aw, you're welcome.

[@irisashton9295]

Love this vlog IMO it looks really interesting thank you for taking us with you x

[@PlanetImo]

You’re welcome, Iris. Thanks for watching. X

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

That’s actually is really interesting history! I was surprised to learn about the Tower of London

[@PlanetImo]

Yeah! It was more interesting than I expected.

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

When my sons were in Boy Scouts they toured a local mint. They learned that American money is actually made out of cloth instead of paper. That’s why the dollar bills can survive the washing machine! I assume it’s the same for British currency?

[@PlanetImo]

Oh that’s interesting. They’re kind of plasticy now. They shrivel up on hot grills, I am told! This mint experience only really covered coins.

[@WormsEyeView]

I remember some of those shillings and using them as 5p. And buying half penny sweets

[@nhoque..7106]

Have a good day So beautiful enjoyed watching always stay connected,💓

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks 😊

Thanks Imo & IB really interesting 👍.

[@PlanetImo]

You're welcome, Alex. Thanks for watching.

[@evancortez2]

Hey that's a great museum! Love to vlog from there someday :)

[@PlanetImo]

It would be lovely if you could get there. I think you'd have to get a bus from Cardiff centre as there are no trains, as far as I know.

[@evancortez2]

I don't mind taking a bus - it's part of the experience :)

[@PlanetImo]

@@evancortez2 that’s true. I love public transport- it’s always a bit more nerve wracking in a place you’re not family with!

[@Kat444-r1h]

I purchased 2 pairs of Jean's from h and m,and I thought of you,they are both quite loose fitting,as I can't wear skinny fit ones.One pair was only 12 pounds.I don't know if you have been in lately,but there is a nice selection of Jean's.The other pair is 90s style baggy ones which instantly took me back to my grungy days.xx

[@PlanetImo]

Ooh thanks! I’ll take a look. :-)

[@Kat444-r1h]

@@PlanetImo There are a good fit,although as normal they are too long.xx

[@Electrowave]

Ah, back in the days when money was worth the metal it was made of! This was interesting :-)

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks, Electrowave. X

[@lexiyoung6471]

heya I have to go to Wales again

[@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854]

I remember things for sale for 99 and half p x

[@PlanetImo]

Oh yes! To make it seem under a pound! Ha ha!

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh love that Penny Lane mini

[@Kat444-r1h]

Hi imo I've been meaning to ask for ages,could you suggest some bands to listen to,who are similar to the music your bands play.I don't know what to search for on KZbin xx

[@PlanetImo]

Oh I know what you mean - there's so much on KZbin it's hard to find what you want! Here's a little playlist I put together for IB when we were in lockdown: kzbin.info/aero/PLALLNg0RJa5zOEaSsFkmSe3-u5hSWAJro so that should get you started. And here's one I did for myself in lockdown of Irish sessions, so I could play along with it in the cellar. Ha ha! It was a lonely time! kzbin.info/aero/PLALLNg0RJa5wwI7U4VPjtBbi-snoDE5rn I hope that helps for starters.

[@PlanetImo]

The lady said this is tthe only one in Britain so, no. They moved this one from London. Thanks so much for watching, Jason. 😃

Shame they didn't give you some free samples :)
