I'm so impressed that the kids try different foods. Most kids now days only eat frozen burgers and takeaway foods. Thumbs up to you both good parents

[@Touringwiththekids]

They're still fussy over some things, but it's always good to encourage trying new foods x

[@andrewmynott694]

You should try Autoglym Tar & adhesive Remover

[@paulwilliams6055]

The wheels could do with coat of paint that will make it look really good for the show.

[@RickyLee733]

Can't believe Rick the tea snob couldn't recognise his favourite Yorkshire tea 😂 Use brake cleaner for the goo stuff!

[@Touringwiththekids]

I know, shameful ha 🐶

[@TheGT73]

You've made a great choice getting a Cocker spaniel, lovely dogs!

[@andrewkedian7244]

Hi guys love the video and love dog have a lovely week 😊😊😊

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thanks Andrew

[@Stefanos.Tsokaras]

Lovely truck, lovely family!!!

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thank you!

[@Sandra-bi7vh]

Hi just an idea for you how about a cordless power washer for cleaning your lorry I personally have one for my car and it is brilliant to use the one I bought has two rechargeable batteries and I am certain it will clean your lorry. I got mine from Amazon.

[@sifromearth]

Welcome back to Blighty guys & hope that you all had a great Bank Holiday weekend. Rosie is adorable - so please she is settling in and you all love her company 😘. Torie (probably spelt wrong) looks nice and shiny now!.Loved the tea challenge - when I lived overseas I was all "Yorkshire Tea is the best" and someone played the same trick on me. Needless to say I also guessed wrong so don't feel so bad Rick. Stay happy guys and look forward to you next post - peace out :-)

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thankyou ☺️ Arghh I do reckon it's a fairly hard challenge. I'm not a tea drinker, so not one for me to do x

[@a7xkurtiss]

Sod that, I'd just go to a truck wash. £25 to wash my artic truck n trailer! Good one in Hythe next time you head to dover

[@stopper20]

Along with a wash, it’s time to wrap that van like you had your old one with some branding and some cool graphics!:)

[@mavisgetsabout]

So good that you have the forest school right there👍🏻x

[@Touringwiththekids]

It's great isn't it, we love it ❤️

[@theweemonkey1]

Next tea challange scottish blend typhoo yorkshire and pg tips he liked it... mix them up and see if he can tell them apart. Or how about a biscuit dunk challenge.. diet can be put on a hold

[@Austenadventures]

Great video guys amazing that you got it out even though you spent so much time showing everyone your van and talking to the likes of us at campervan campout. P.s i love Rosie i could cuddle her all day 😍

[@Touringwiththekids]

Aww thankyou, only just about managed it thanks to an early start Sunday morning (ahem Rosie 🐾) Thanks for coming to see us xxx

[@mistyeyes6710]

Rosey is so cute ❤ nobody can judge you on your floor, staying on a field will do that to the cleanest of vans, you have an awesome place, great vlog guys 🌹🥂🍾

[@Touringwiththekids]

That is very true 🤣

[@jammy.r.p]

You need some TFR Rich, Traffic Film Remover. Plenty of different ones on the market.

[@jimstelfox6120]

Tree sap can cause marks like yours

[@patbloomfield888]

The grey marks on the side are most likely pollen from trees you have parked near, we found that often happened with caravans we had.

[@rufflyadventuring3579]

Spaniels are unlike any other dog I’ve ever had, seriously hard work but totally worth it ❤️ brain games will tire her out quicker than any walks. We play hide and seek with treats, brain training games but they are that clever they usually get them straight away lol our 7 year old spaniel totally rules life lol loves being in the van tho good luck there’s loads of spaniel groups on Facebook always useful. Fingers crossed yours isn’t as crazy as ours she out runs her 3 year old border collie brother 😂

[@Touringwiththekids]

Ohh good idea, will have to join a few fb groups x

[@colinbarton3960]

Loving the videos. But I thought you were going to change the wheels on Tory 😊Thanks CB

[@Touringwiththekids]

We do need to do something, just haven't got round to it yet!

[@restdayadventure]

save the hard arm work and find a local truck wash, and as for glue remover try chrome products, they do loads for hgvs,.as a class 1 driver great to se the kids loving the truck and the on the road way of life

[@ianj1976]

Great video guys! Truck looking good, just needs some shiny wheels!

[@PenelopetheTruck]

MultiSolve will get old sealant, adhesive etc off with ease and it won’t damage the surface 👍🏻

[@stuartsims501]

Beautiful family. Just love your vlogs. No plans for decals on Lorrie?

[@Touringwiththekids]

Not yet! Maybe one day x

[@delcassie1337]

Have a look at Truck washes, they do what it says on the tin. Oh and most are drive through, just like your good old car wash

[@debrafricano1486]

I think it's amazing the kids try new things! Wonderful merch!

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thankyou! They did need a little encouraging (as did I) 🤣

[@Magnificent729]

WD40 - gets rid of everything!! Marvellous stuff!!!

[@alanhat5252]

...and washes off with ordinary washing-up liquid

[@Magnificent729]

@@alanhat5252 probably, although I’d think the auto shampoo would’ve done the trick if that were the case. And, you can’t use that to do all the other things WD40 can do… as I said, marvellous stuff. Or are you saying WD40 washes off with normal washing up liquid?? If so, agreed!

[@alanhat5252]

​@@Magnificent729yes, WD40 washes off with washup.

[@Magnificent729]

@@alanhat5252 sorry mate. Misunderstood you. 100% agree! 👍🏼

[@66mjtaylor]

G3 cutting compound, will remove any marks and also remove where your original stickers were , ideally you want a machine to polish it up

[@allanbarnes6434]

Looks like tree sap on the side..brake and clutch cleaner on a cloth will sort it out.

[@jamesdunican1750]

Fantastic as always keep them coming 👍👍👍👍🇮🇪

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thanks 👍

[@davidb4800]

Great idea your merchandise and enjoyed video .Also the polish went on like a treat

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@johnblyth9787]

Another great video. I dont think you will ever fully remove where the signage was on the truck. Exposed paint is open to sun rain etc, and fadeds over time. I used Turtle wax polish on a car and at around 10 years old was still like new. Was on dirt and gravel roads often. Once a week got a good wash. Polish every 2 to 3 months. In rain water run off it. Kira with 10 feet and 4 paws in a small area that floor is going to get dirty. You all do a great job with tidying and cleaning. I so much envy the life those kids have. They are learning so much in day to day life that could never be learned in a class room. Much love as always and a big hug for Rosie. See you next week. Hope it will be the show.

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thankyou! we are always very busy with something or another xx

[@Cheekymonkey1]

Good night everyone are you enjoying your adventure back in England with your new dog rosie and family I love watching your videos of you and your adventures in your motor home I hope you are all well and enjoying your adventures in your motor home I bet rosie is keeping you all on your feet and fit please keep up the good work up on your videos on your you tube channel

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thanks so much xx

[@barrien4]

You let the side down Rick as I like and drink Yorkshire tea 😂🤣😂👍

[@Touringwiththekids]

Sorry 🙊

[@Meggy6571]

Evening Guys, Nice vlog again, looks like the puppy is keeping you on your toes 😅. Cracking job on the van, protex ceramic spray for the cab to keep it shiny, all that hard work though let down by the wheels 🙄, have thought about any decals for the box section 🤔. As a Yorkshire couple we were cringing when we saw the tea results 😮, 😂. Stay safe and enjoy your next trip. Paul and Joanne 👍 😊

[@Touringwiththekids]

She absolutely is! 🤣 haha you'll have to try the challenge on eachother and see if you can get it right!

[@delectablesensation8528]

I love intermediate fasting very good for the body ❤

[@keithcassidy1752]

You need a TFR or tar and glue remover for the marks on the body, your wheels could do with a rub down and paint. Would make a big difference

[@sarahburgess-hamlett212]

I agree with WD40 or hand sanitizer

[@pinkcosmosbluebells]

Theres a truck wash in Felixstowe!

[@Touringwiththekids]

Ahh we just googled that one, says its permanently closed 😫

[@pinkcosmosbluebells]

@@Touringwiththekids oh no! Sorry, typical innit!

[@arthanson9259]

Need some nice wheels for the truck. Durabrights would look great

[@alanhat5252]

look great, yes, but they're not as tough as ordinary steel wheels (which look great with a different-colour rim).

[@seancoleman8528]

I thought you had an electric bike to do shopping with, you can get hand held pressure washers

[@markgower4184]

Great vlog again guys that sticky stuff might be tree sap , I saw your van today at the show it looks great but you've got to sort out them wheels now 😊 I spoke to kiri today at show your a lovely lady thank you for taking the time for a brief chat to me and the wife we're the gowerz from Portsmouth ps thank you for the sticker I took as your note suggested gutted Rick was chilling with rosie so didn't see him to say hi ,so hi Rick 😮 .so until the next vlog take care the gowerz Portsmouth xx 😊😊

[@Glen.Williams]

Zinsser Universal Degreaser spray should work on those dark patches. Or HB42 Ultimate Solvent Cleaner which comes in an aerosol. Use with a plastic scraper, and you're golden ;)

[@Oheky]

Won't white spirits work to remove the glue?

[@Glen.Williams]

@@Oheky It can do, but it depends on what the substance is, and what the substrate it's on. Also, as white spirit is quite harsh chemical, it could potentially remove or degrade the paint on the surface. You can get 'clean' white spirit which is less harsh, but I'd still opt for the HB42 as it has a multitude of uses.

[@alanhat5252]

the blobs on the white wall? on mine it's lichen from where I parked under a tree for a week, I haven't yet found anything to permanently remove it.

[@colettenkids3949]

I do a lot of fasting. When kids are at school I don’t have a dinner then I have a meal at 4pm my body is use to that now…

[@JanetDavidge-ul2co]

WD40 might do it took the old sealant off my bath. 😂 Love Rosie it was so sweet when the floor was being cleaned. No ones judging on the water colour 😅😂.

[@Touringwiththekids]

She wasn't too happy was she 🤣

[@debbiemercer3103]

Nice to meet you and Rosie yesterday. Try Pink Stuff on the marks

[@Touringwiththekids]

Ahh thankyou, was nice to meet everyone xx

My family.makes pasties meat carrots potatoes yummy family tradition started in Michigan but very Irish family!!

[@Touringwiththekids]

Ohh yummy! that sounds delicious

[@denisecafferky2248]

The tea challenge 😂. Tori looks gleaming

[@Touringwiththekids]

I know! He failed big time at that 🤣

[@louiserichards6252]

Lovely to see Rosie coming along I use the command" business" when training my girls Daisy and Darcy to toilet and it works you just need to be consistent with rewards when she does it to the command she will connect the two but slowly just do it to command . Yes you are absolutely right that you can control type 2 called late onset diabetes with diet .I eat what I call clean foods so the less processing the better I also eat more meat and dairy ,eggs and fish . Cut out the flour products/sugar. Be careful of your carbs including carbs in vegetables. Fasting is good too . More families should be looking into what they are eating ,however a small treat from the "health farm" Mc D occasionally is ok too . Love watching you all with such a lovely family ,others can learn a lot from watching .

[@alanhat5252]

McD are on Palestine's boycott list.

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thanks Louise, so kind! Xx

[@LightandlifeBristol-tg1kx]

Try pledge furniture polish on those stains it should definitely get it off

[@juniorallen9]

Why not take it to a truck wash probably be £30 or so and roof etc will get a good wash

[@ValerieGiles-u6y]

great vlolg again just love u all ❤

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thank you 😊 xxx

[@hanshartfiel6394]

Cocker spaniels ain't for the faint hearted she'll calm down when she's 6 years old 😂 gorgeous tho. I do the 18:6 fasting. So I eat between 9am & 3pm or 10am and 4pm. It helps my blood pressure and I lost 20lbs eating anything I fancied. When I also cut out sugar & carbs I lose more weight👍

[@Touringwiththekids]

Do you have the weekend off fasting? x

[@ronaroamsdeniseandsonny3545]

@@Touringwiththekids maybe 1 day (Fri Sat or Sun) every 2 weeks I will eat anything I fancy and eat all day but generally I stick to eating just for 5 hours per day

That's that's weird I don't have breakfast and I've got type 2 diabetes and they tell me all you must have breakfast they haven't said anything about fasting or anything like that I suppose it's postcode lottery on what you're told what is right what is wrong

a steam cleaner will bring that off if you have one..

Wax on Wax off

[@fwof3347]

Should try and get a couple of windows for behind the drivers and passenger door better for the kids and if plastic will drop a few kg off ULW of vehicle. And make it a nice brighter space and better for kids driving.

[@Oheky]

They have said in a previous video, they have bought the windows, but Mercedes UK won't deliver them from Germany.

[@sandradoughty7761]

If you’ve watched previous episodes, you’ll see that they have been trying to do just that, for months. Mercedes won’t send them by post from Germany and they are not available in the UK.

[@terenceseymour-tf8rptassie725]

perhaps a trip to Germany might have to be the answer to get the windows installed​@sandradoughty7761

Try goo gone. Or sticky stuff remover

[@traveladdict1]

Try WD40 on any sticky residue or road tar spots, it dissolves them without harming the paint.
