The Road To Appleby Horse Fair 2011 - Wingate Crew

[@timcarpenter2893]

They are really nice caravans and I have always had a laugh with them and they look after there horses as well

[@DurhamTelly]

I've met a few of them again over the years, they are always amazed how popular the video has become.

[@helenw7054]

What a lovely family, horses well looked after, nice wagons, just how it should be done

[@owenthomas5876]

that was so nice to see, proper horse drawn barrel top convoys. I wish that was still a common sight nowadays. much respect

[@szhooper]

Wonderful movie.... thank you for sharing the Gypsy "horse culture" to someone here in California! Really enjoyed it!

[@Redtinmug]

:) I've been trying to get to Appleby for almost a decade (hitching lifts off friends) and finally a lovely chap is going to teach me to drive horse-drawns so i can get there! :D

[@itsmaisy3038]

The man doing the shooings my dad😊

[@lkc3061]

WOW I thoroughly enjoyed watching this, it was lovely and the music was so apropos. Thank you for this wonderful video

[@DurhamTelly]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Geordiguy]

Sadly, it's been a while since I've been to The fair. Been living in USA and Canada for 11 years but I always remember to look up the new Appleby Fair videos that are newly posted after each years event.. I must say this is the most professionally done video I've seen in a long while. Well done that man! Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

[@missgreasedlightning]

Thanks again you are very talented Alan. I really can't add more as all the other people have said it all ! I will just say that you obviously thoroughly enjoy filming and it comes through to your audience.

[@greavesful]

Alan cannot wait for your next part of your journey to Appelby when you put it up. Im originally from Ashington and seeing the Colesons, the Ruts, Ned who is no longer with us, Tommy Shafto all going to Appelby fair the same as you in traditional horses and carts and living waggon. Fantastic video keep up the good work. Very enjoyable.

[@ABritInThePhilippines]

That was brilliant, watched it from start to finish, thanks for uploading... Carl

[@connollyclipson4195]

[@poniezzrockk111]

loved the red harness you used on one of the chunky horses :)

[@DurhamTelly]

Beautiful and they were well looked after to, almost everyone likes being filmed for Appleby.. I am pleased that you enjoyed it,

[@fbi039]

Alan my friend you have out done yourself..one hell of a great short film as sent link to 43 friends. Am truly envious & jealous of your ability at the same time..your editing skills & choice of back round music are spot on..have added a visit to your neck of the world to my bucket list before old age or cancer claims me as beautiful country and the people..what can I say as this was like taking a trip from the comfort of my recliner..hope this finds you well & at peace after your recent loss..

[@steverowe3]

Thanks for the reply just like to say you've got some fantastic looking horses

[@poniezzrockk111]

i did! i would absolutely love to go down to appleby one year, id like to buy myself a good coloured horse at the same time!

[@lesleywalkerpiromengro6121]

top film so perfect.how you put he pics and the music-it is magic

[@DurhamTelly]

Im getting much better, it is a slow process.

[@mardybum2007]

I love going to appleby its amazing :)

[@banksy2000]

thanks.

[@Avenging.angel.no1]

great videos lads 👍

[@DurhamTelly]

@fbi039 Sorry for the late reply Bruce, I spent a great few days at Appleby Fair, lucky as its only 45 miles from here. I managed to get back in one piece with 4 hours of footage to sort, met loads of new people & I have been invited to loads of other horse drives & fairs, on my doorstep, over the next few months. Only had about 4 hours sleep over the past few days, but the break has done me good. This part of the UK is brilliant, mainly off the tourist map, everyone loves it, history, scenery.

[@DurhamTelly]

@DAY3956 I'm pleased that you enjoyed it Thomas, i'd like to hit the road this year & travel to Appleby the correct way...

[@DurhamTelly]

At Appleby there are many breeds of all different sizes, I don't ride I just film the event from a social history context, many of the horses are both ridden and pull the carts. the black & white horse are 'Cobs'.

[@DurhamTelly]

I hope get there too, everyone is on the move around here and i'll be out getting more video..

[@DurhamTelly]

@greavesful I spent two full days at Appleby, & I have just got back in the house, I have five hours of footage to sort out it will take a few weeks but it should be worth the wait.

[@maryanneodriscoll1736]

proud to be a traveller carnt wate for appleby dis yr whoooop

[@mrbubbles338]

The funny thing is that we were there today did you see the accident guy rammed horse into bush

[@DurhamTelly]

Plenty of country people go to Appleby, many of the people are just working people that enjoy horse's and the Appleby experience, always plenty of coach trips arrive each day..

[@pikefisher1000]

Nice video and lovey hores

[@morgansheela5226]

Good!

[@DurhamTelly]

And i'll be with you!

[@morgansheela5226]

Yeah! Me too!

[@PhantomQueenOne]

At 20 minutes in, get a hoof stand, your back will thank you.

[@DurhamTelly]

@crazyjane82 There wasn't too many red & white cob at the fair, so we probably saw the same horse. The horse of the fair for me was the 7yr Old White Cob Stallion, that I saw at the Rising Sun.

[@2CloseShave]

going their

[@missvonklinkenhoffen]

Brilliant

[@gavincole2659]

This was mint. Have you any recent ones ?

[@DurhamTelly]

I've only got what's on the channel mate, I haven't done anything in years, pleased that you enjoyed it though!

[@DurhamTelly]

@mrbubbles338 Just got back I didn't see the accident, but heard about from Biggles.

[@DurhamTelly]

Anyone can visit the fair 1000's of tourists visit every year

[@maryanneodriscoll1736]

proud to be a traveller carnt wate for appleby dis yr

[@markhodgson3045]

good on you ,bless you

[@DurhamTelly]

@surrealfarm Vanners Cobs are Bomb Proof & docile, some people may disagree?

[@corky1548]

top film nice

[@DurhamTelly]

Thankyou!

[@morgansheela5226]

Me too!

[@DurhamTelly]

Thanks, I keep trying...

[@DurhamTelly]

@pickupcorn Hi I am pleased that you enjoyed the video, spread the word if you can, cobs are bomb proof !

[@susansmart1550]

A beautiful grey cob he was as bombfroof as you liked called him Bobby miss him so

[@DurhamTelly]

@Redtinmug I might be joining you!

[@DurhamTelly]

@szhooper Pleased that you are pleased!

[@DurhamTelly]

@surrealfarm Any horse than can carry a rider, two kettle drums and work in a military band has to be special. I am surrounded by them, if a field has two horses in a least one of them is a Vanner or Cob. I'm not a horseman at all but would trust a Cob even before a Shetland Pony! I have my eye on some in parkland just up the road and will be spending a few hours with them for a little study?

[@morgansheela5226]

Yeah, me too.

[@DurhamTelly]

@FamilyFun999 Tis a bonnie one!

[@DurhamTelly]

They do it in about 4 to 5 days, steady away..

[@DurhamTelly]

@TheHonestLove1 The traffic looks much worse than it actually was, due to the zoom lens, it was busy though.

[@DurhamTelly]

No its a major event, thousands of tourists attend each year, just beware of health & safety and you should be safe, plenty of Police are always present. If you don't go to fair hill then the safest area is along the along the banks of the River Eden with the day trippers.

[@DurhamTelly]

It is different, they are not my horses I just asked if I could film...

[@shidaena]

@DurhamTelly lolz soz i will try put one on are u a kid or an adalt and i take it ur a traveller ? x

[@gomadnomad9621]

[@DurhamTelly]

[@gomadnomad9621]

[@Noodlemonkey7]

[@steverowe3]

[@ilanafoster6957]

I went to Appleby gypsy fair but I’m not s gypsy I just took my horse for a ride to see I am equestrian and have a house but I’m just not a gypsy 😅

[@banksy2000]

How long did it take them to get from durham to appleby???.

[@bethharrisxx]

I want to Marry a gypsy I just love them and how they live :)

[@poniezzrockk111]

Ohhh ok Awkward.... :L but their horses are gorgeous!

[@hunterthehippie1433]

my mother says im not allowed to go to Appleby

[@DurhamTelly]

One dislike & a Comment (Deleted) today from a Racist that doesn't read the information supplied with the video, if they had bothered to read the info they may have learned something? There account has been suspended by KZbin!

[@lisaray2081]

Really fine horses. I love the wagons...reminds me of when I lived on a boat for about a 10 years in the San Francisco Bay of California. What kind of horses are they? How many hands tall are they? Do you ride them also or just use them to pull the wagons. Great Video thanks for another view into the world.

[@tommurphree5630]

Those are Irish Cobs and called Gypsy Vanners in North America . In the U. S. people ride them . In the United Kingdom people mainly haul wagons and perhaps plow with them I think . They are new in the U. S . In England and Ireland they have been around a long time . They hauled " traveler " wagons . People called the people gypsies , but apparently that is an insult to call them that name .

[@DurhamTelly]

@MrToiletface They are beautiful not sure it practical nowadays, still I would like to give one a try...

[@morgansheela5226]

Yeah. Really?

[@DurhamTelly]

If you checkout my channel playlists there are loads more Appleby & Vanner videos..

[@morgansheela5226]

You shouldn't be saying swares on here.

[@lucymoriary7282]

i have never been to Appleby before but, i hear really bad storys frm there. i mean some of the horses are really nice there are some nice cobs and tradtionals but some are really underweight and need feeding up.

[@leahnewby1290]

These Horses Are Well Looked After.

[@theconspiracyfactualist.144]

Leah Newby not all of them
