Should You Visit Richmond in North Yorkshire?

[@PatriciaMegna]

Richmond looks like a lovely town,loved the grave yard.🦘

Ref: 13:30 "I spend all my money on beer and fish 'n' chips". Maybe you should rename your channel 'By The Carb' ! That was a nice day out you had there.

Thank you mate 😊

I love that bloody funny you and lovely Helen mate the that bird made you bloody jump mate

[@grahamrangeley3853]

Hi James & Helen , me and the missus got a couple of those badges, because she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's& dementia 2 years ago right on our retirement. We both love watching your vlogs because you remind us of ourselves when we were your ages. Keep up great vlogs, best wishes to you both x

[@PiperX1X]

Wow the Bishops Blaize has changed since last time I was in there, once upon a time it was wipe your feet on your way out. I left the area 13 or so years ago and it was a right dive. It’s so nice to see that it’s looking really well and as it should be, well done to whoever got all the work done.

[@joannad9142]

The food is gorgeous too, their soups n sandwiches 🎉 my husband used to play cricket there once in a while.

[@pepperpot542]

Bloody hell James encouraging Helen to go in to charity shops 😂😂

[@bythecurb]

It's the new me! 😂

Amazing how somewhere that was once so full of grief can become so beautiful .

Hello uk..

[@kerilouise5340]

Thank you for showcasing The Station - beautiful to see, and so pleased you enjoyed your time there, my Husband is the Manager 😊

[@bythecurb]

He is doing a wonderful job, we really liked it

[@IanRichardson-y1m]

Really enjoyed as always , look forward to all your blogs, so natural and down to earth 😊

[@neilwiltshire1467]

Lovely traditional market town in a wonderful part of the world, you showed one of my favourite parts, the falls on the river, I remember walking right out "into the river" on the little jetty, pretty scary as I can't swim !! My main reason for going the first time was to visit what at the time was voted the most scenic football ground in the country, Richmond Town used to play at Earls Orchard, just across the River Swale in the shadow of the castle and you get a fantastic view of the castle from down by the pitch or up on the slopes surrounding it - Ithink I saw more of it then you two !! ;-) ... I made a point of going back to stay at a Travelodge a couple of mliles east of the town just off the A1 as a base for exploring the Dales a couple fo years later. You chose well ... and you keep going to some of my favourite places I'vve visited in the UK !!!

[@catherinejones6250]

Hi 6 must have missed this one . I've never heard of Richmond, and I'm a Yorkshire lass . It is a beautiful place to visit xx

[@carolcr4024]

Brilliant, thrilled you showcased gorgeous Richmond to the 🌎. 😊

[@cloggsy1971]

Black Sheep Brewery Tour in Masham would be right up your street 👌🏻👍🏻

[@StevenHolmes-s3e]

Old Peculiar beer made in Masham; that was, and is, a deadly drink! An alumnus from York University!

[@thestanleys2674]

Enjoyed this one a lot. We got married in Richmond and visit every year. Some of the surrounding villages are stunningly beautiful as well. We would recommend a stay at Brompton Lakes just outside Richmond and a visit to Mainsgill Farm shop near the A66. One day we might just relocate into the area away from South Yorkshire.

[@fpwrankin]

Your closing shots of the cricket ground remind me of probably my greatest "put down". I was batting for Richmondshire in an important cup match in front of a large crowd in 1963. I hit the ball for a six over the bowler, out of the ground and into the Zetland Cinema. When it was our turn to field I was near the boundary when play was delayed. An old man seated with his three pals shouted me across. "I bet you'll remember that shot; you'll dream of that shot young 'un" he said in a loud voice.I turned back to the pitch when play resumed. The old man shouted me back. "I saw Brian Close (Yorkshire and England) play the same shot young 'un. His shot went OVER the cinema!" he shouted. I can still hear the crowd laughing.

[@kathyhayden2499]

Roast dinner looked delicious, place looked interesting too,love craft fairs ❤

[@sueterry7300]

That was lovely to watch. Great calming vlog. Luv to u both xx

[@Bought_by_the_blood]

Thankyou for this lovely informative vlog. A sunny day, good food, beautiful scenery and the ruined abbey was amazing. Love Helen’s dress too!

[@always.wondering.wandering]

Thanks for doing the Guinness test, so the taste was pretty good, glad you to hear you liked it. Helen is so right, you can't afford to buy "stuff" when you need to buy food and other necessities and then where do you keep this "stuff". Glad you got the shot of them playing cricket, I've only seen it done on the movies. I ike Helen's, oo"s, you know something interesting is coming. I so enjoyed your walk around Richmond and seeing the Abbey and the story of the drummer boy. Beautiful countryside there. You two have a wonderful week and maybe some up and coming oos will come your way.

[@MichaelPalmer-z6b]

Just to add to the suggestions for places to go, there’s a village in the Cotswolds called Barnsley, believe it or not. There’s not much there to be fair (a pub and a country house hotel, and Liz Hurley allegedly!) but it is midway between Cirencester and Bibury, both of which are beautiful places. So if you are looking to go a bit farther afield, have a look down there. Keep up the good work ❤

[@StevenHolmes-s3e]

Liked the craft fair; that woman who painted the stones was really talented - ‘girl with a pearl earring’ by Vermeer as well as ‘the son of man’ by Magritte! The original painting by Vermeer is now worth millions and Paul McCartney used to collect original Magritte paintings!

[@JimLatimer]

Grate place thanks for the tour James & Helen

[@MB-PAT-Solutions]

I think name for the butterfly tree Helen referred to is the Buddleia

[@SusanTurner-yo9lf]

What a beautiful town, really want to visit Richmond now, does look a bit like Alnwick. Loving the charity shop visit and the craft fair, Helen must have loved that. Brilliant vlog😊

[@sheilamoss3723]

Must be 20years since we went to Richmond and it looks completely different obviously my memory lets me down so lovely to be able to see it all again through you both. Thank you both.xx

[@tynebar]

It's not changed much , just a few shops missing but essentially the same.

[@heywood554]

Loved Richmond. We took a day off there when doing the coast to coast last year.

[@lcfcgrayforeverafox3603]

Brilliant stuff me and the mrs relaxed Sunday night and watched you and Helen galavanting around Richmond we loved the shops you visited the banter between you too perfect 😎🥃👍

[@GHExploration]

What a wonderful place to wake up James, another reason why we're blessed to live where we do 👌

[@Wilibear1]

I look forward to your adventures so much Another great episode , the ruins were amazing

[@dawntague9029]

Brings happy memories back of Richmond with my parents. Mum passed away 2015 suddenly. I was living in County Durham at the time. Back home in Wales now 😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Great blog, lovely to see you both enjoying yourselves. Life is short, enjoy every minute. Have a great week both. Dawn & Jay xx 🤩🌞🍺🍷

[@countmurcielago9802]

You did well James, that was I good look round them Old properties , Helen once again chatting to the locals I love hearing your banter when hen wanders off lol. Great vlog once again. 😊

[@judyfaulkner407]

Another gorgeous place to visit, thank you both that was very interesting it looked lovely in the sunshine, makes all the difference doesn’t it , better than the rain we had today… Take care both and see thee in the next one ☺️

[@JasonDodson-s9z]

What a lovely Vlog once again you two. There is a lovely Indian Restaurant in the square that allows you to bring your own alcohol as they are not licensed, we've used it many times when coming back to Keswick from the Fatherland (Rotherham). It really is a lovely town and just a stones throw from the A66/Scotch Corner.

[@WeAreAllData65]

Another fun and informative vlog from Jamlen, in a very lovely setting 😍✨ (..and James actually encouraging Helibobs to enter a charity shop - who'd have thought! 😆✨). Uplifting scenery, snippets of local lore, the odd (wonderfully mischievous) double-entendre 😚✨and always washed down with a fine Craft Ale (or two!). Thank you Jamlen, for another entertaining travelogue! 🍻💖✨✨

[@johnwyatt3327]

Hi Helen the tree you were thinking about that attracts butterflies is called a Budhea as we’ve got about 10 + of them in split between the back and front gardens and the amount of butterflies we have flying round every year is remarkable as they are all colours that arrive,

[@robineasby5328]

Another great video. As it happens my surname is Easby. Nice to have an abbey and a hall named after you ! I also find grave yards can be very peaceful places. Love the way you and Helen review your meals and drinks. Thank you both for what you do.

[@bythecurb]

I think by rights, you should reclaim Easby Hall!! If you do, can we come and stay please? 😂

[@thegrinch8161]

You absolutely should visit Richmond and for that matter the whole of North Yorkshire because I had a short posting at Richmond barracks’s the general impression I got was one nicest postings I’ve ever had but for me the river swale was top notch in fishing

[@deadlevelwillie]

Hello, you two, another lovely part of North Yorkshire, you're covering some nice areas and great to see Helen back as you are great together, but nice the way you spread it between yourself and as a duo, nice balance that works for you.

At Easby Abbey you should have kept walking and you would have passed the Little Drummer Boy stone. Then left over the road bridge back to the Station. It is called The Easby Loop. Great video by the way.

I'm only one behind now James, should be level by teatime. Britania Hotel Manchester by the look of it, I might keep one eye closed through that one. You made Richmond look very interesting, did you notice how Helen was being taken off by the pigeons in the Abbey Ooooo. Don't know if you have ever listened properly to wood pigeons but they actually say "We are so busy, yes we are so busy" once heard you will never forget. I spend half my life saying "You're not kidding anyone, you've done bugger-all all day" Keep up the great video's guys...
