[@richard_n]

I was happy to see it was an actual cave. A lot of KZbinrs go stay in a "cave" that is simply a rock outcropping. Caves are great shelter, they keep a constant temperature year round. So they are warm in winter and cool in summer. Also, you should use a non inflatable mat for trips like this. It's so easy to puncture an air mat.

I met an old friend today. Born with cerebral palsy, she is now virtually blind and wheelchair bound for years. She is off next week to ride the London Eye with one of her personal assistants, quite rightly she refuses to call them carers. A week later she will be cruising to Norway. We talked of life as old friends are accustomed to do. Julia reminded me that you have to concentrate on what you can do, not what you can't She remains the most inspiring person I have ever had the lucky chance of knowing. You share some of that life affirming nature. She writes appalling poetry of which I never cease to remind her. Naturally I cannot speak of any poetic vision you might possess but frankly that of a malevolent kangaroo might serve better than hers. Thank you for your own hard work and vision. It brings joy. With best wishes.

Hello Ruth! I'm an indigenous person from the U.S. and here we believe (it might just be as a joke, bit it's what I've always heard growing up) if you drop food while you're cooking or eating, it means the spirits want some too! That's what I immediately thought of when I saw you drop the raviolis lol Well, at least the spirits got to try some of your delicious dinner too! Lol Loved the video btw and can't wait for more caravan/camping adventures!

[@tituscrow4951]

I’m Scottish. Here we have a thing where if you drop salt - spill salt spill sorrow. - it’s meant to unleash some bad luck on you or your family. You stop it by immediately casting it over your left shoulder. I’m not sure why it’s the left shoulder particularly. But my mum believed in it. She believed in the other world. She was born in the early 30s so maybe it’s that. - I liked your story.

[@janiedillingham3190]

Where I live in the US, there are many caves to explore. When I was younger, we had SO MUCH FUN in the heat of summer, exploring caves. Inside, those caves are always around 60 degrees Fahrenheit (summer or winter), so it was nice and cool inside. The cave I loved the best was gigantic. There were rope climbs, breakdown rooms to clamber over, and small holes to wiggle through on your stomach. We'd come out covered in mud with muscles quivering from all the exercise. Then, we'd jump in the nearby creek and rinse all the mud out of our clothes. It was a blast! But you are right: it is DARK inside. NO light at all. When you turn off your headlamp, you cannot see your hand in front of your face. The only sound was water dripping. You could scare yourself half to death, imagining cave monsters and such. Best NOT to do that! Most spelunkers are wonderful people. :)

[@nodak81]

I always find geology fascinating. Amazing to think the Scottish Highlands used to be part of the same mountain range as the Appalachian mountains here in the USA. Way back when they were the Pangean mountain range.

Ruth, this video sent chills up my spine. There has to be “some” truth to the story of Sawney Bean.

[@reklaw3603]

Sawney Bean is a legendary figure in Scottish folklore, often depicted as a notorious criminal and cannibal. According to the legend, Alexander "Sawney" Bean was the leader of a 48-member clan in 16th-century Scotland that murdered and cannibalised numerous travelers. The Beans supposedly lived in a coastal cave in Bennane Head, Ayrshire, from where they would ambush and rob passersby. The tale goes that Sawney Bean and his clan were eventually captured and executed after a massive manhunt organised by King James VI of Scotland. The story, though widely circulated, lacks historical evidence and is considered by many historians to be more myth than fact, possibly originating as anti-Scottish propaganda. The legend of Sawney Bean has endured in popular culture, appearing in various books, films, and other media over the years.

Very interesting, Ms. Aisling! I had never heard of Sawney Bean and while the story is quite possibly true, another explanation is that the local community in earlier times may have wanted to keep children away from the cliffs, rocks, and sea for safety purposes, and invented the story. Sort of, "you better stay away from the cliffs or Sawney Bean will get you!" type of thing. Still very enjoyable. Keep up the good work.

'This is nice, so much better than a house, just cold, damp and drippy. But apart from that, pretty happy...' I'll let you into a secret, Ruth: The idea of a house is to have somewhere to live and sleep that isn't cold, damp and drippy. A bathroom is generally seen as a good idea as well.... and maybe a kitchen... and a bed that you don't slide off while you sleep. This is what most people aspire to. There might be a reason for that, don't you think? Still each to his, or in your case her, own. In fact, I did actually wonder if you might not be getting a bit Pythonesque. By the way: I loved it.

怖がりのルースさんが今回もがんばりましたね最近は話題になりませんが、ネス湖のネッシーさんはお元気ですか？

[@peterkelly1665]

Not sure if I am the only one who first learned of Sawney Bean from of all things a Phantom comic! For those who are not aware The Phantom is very popular comic in Australia have seen people of all ages buy and read them on trains in hospitals etc But Sawney's clan were a terrible group. really enjoyed the presentation

[@ruthaisling]

I didn’t know about that comic. Thanks 👍

'Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?' Yes, the Shadow, not the Phantom. But it seemed appropriate

You are very Brave to do do such a thing Ruth, specially with the history behind it. It was super funny to watch this video 😅 well done!!! Stay Safe

[@ruthaisling]

Thank you so much!

[@ivane182_23]

wow that was so creepy, respect for staying there, u r so brave

Ruthさんは本当に怖いもの知らずですね。 日本での大型バスの運転も、見ていてヒヤヒヤしました。 Ruthさんには、ウイスキーが🥃つきものなので、どんな銘柄か気になります。 今回もありがとう。

They are Scottish brands so they are whisky spelled the Scottish way NOT whiskey.

[@民草1]

@@aliciarobertson4979 意味不明ですがNOT ウイスキーなのかな？

[@aliciarobertson4979]

@@民草1 No, Scottish whisky is never whiskey which signifies to us Scots that it is a spirit drink from Ireland, Japan or any other country outside of Scotland. The translation of your first remark says ‘whiskey’ using an ‘e’. My comment was to say the any Scottish ‘whisky’ is spelled without the ‘e’. Sorry for any confusion. 😊

Well done Ruth. Very brave and what a bizarre story. Knowing its history makes it even more errie.

[@ruthaisling]

Very bizarre story!

[@barbararobbins5309]

You are a brave girl . I am enjoying your videos of Scotland. In a week and one day, Inverness, here I come!

[@aengusmacnaughton1375]

Ruth -- I think that the ghost of Sawney Bean didn't appreciate you eating ravioli there! He kept tossing the raviolis on the ground!!! 😁

[@NinjaBooKitty]

OMG! 😱😱I just found your channel and am so excited to follow your adventures. This tale is truly shocking! Even though I have outgrown horror films, that one still remains the scariest one I've ever seen, and even the sequel is just as frightening. I never knew it was based a true (?) story! I don't know how you can sleep there but thanks for sharing!

[@ruthaisling]

I’m glad you found the channel and I hope you enjoy following my travels! 🙏

[@steveray8056]

Hi Ruth, My wife and I started watching this video an both thought…..”this girl is bonkers for wanting to stay in such a notorious cave that was used for such disgusting acts.” Hey, you did it.

[@ruthaisling]

I did it 😆
