Brilliant: Thanks so much for taking the time to film and share. Maggie & Mack, Huddersfield.

[@NorthernersonTour]

thank you maggie and mack for watching ❤️❤️🐕

[@christinemarchant4678]

Lovely bit of history very interesting church yard. An accordion 😊

[@wendysingleton3895]

Ailsa Craig is where all the granite comes from for making curling stones, and a fresh load will have been collected to make the new stones for the next Winter Olympics, also Stranraer is known as having 3 Olympic curlers born and raised here - Vicky Wright , Bobby Lammie & Hammy McMillan they all learned to play at the North West Castle Hotel which has it's own curling rink .

[@patriciaveitch238]

Your expressions Lisa when mark says something strange is wicked ! I’d watch for them alone 🤣

[@NorthernersonTour]

thank you xx

[@Camperjazz]

The car park at glencapple quay is about 15 mins drive into Dumfries centre, on the estuary, motorhome bays with request for donations, 24/7 toilets, bins, cafe shop restaurant and pub opposite, best thing the bus to Dumfries stops at the car park . Burns house is ok, but not very realistic as I pointed out on my visit bet it didn’t look like that with 6 kids inside lol….. the main town museum in the old windmill is a fab visit.

[@NorthernersonTour]

thank missed that one

[@Camperjazz]

@@NorthernersonTour do it next time stunning sunsets over the estuary and Caerlaverock castle is a 10 min drive away, there’s also a motorhome park up near the castle but not such a stunning view as glencapple quay

[@sandrapaterson8678]

Great video and loved seeing some of my old haunts. Lol Mark i use that funny money every day 😂❤

[@GarySmith-dm1iy]

Go to Portpatrick guys it's further down the coast, absolutely beautiful little seaside village

[@tonyp011]

Hi Lisa and Mark the George hotel in Stranraer suffered from water ingress and has deteriorated since 2007 it is a class B listed building and the council now own it to safeguard it from further deterioration and its hope to be restored as the george hotel

[@jamielaw4086]

Great Channel well done xx

[@annies8075]

The sculpture is of a concertina

Aisla Craig is commonly known as "Paddy's Milestone"

[@davidforrest4942]

When you were in Dumfries near the charity shop There was the Imperial Chinese behind you. Mark didn't even see it. Lisa your accent sounds like a Hull accent. I know you are from Lancashire. Great videos 👍

[@gosomewherenew]

living the dream! that loch parkup looks stunning!

[@NorthernersonTour]

Squeeze Box is a Concertina I think, cos Accordion is a big thing with a keyboard. Everything's shut there, what a pity. It looks blooming cold too !

[@glynnisross7974]

Great episode and the instrument is a concertina, not an accordion which is much larger.

[@mavejames9614]

Lisa and Mark don’t do Ireland when children are on school holidays. So from the end of June to beginning of Sept best stay away. But all the other times are absolutely amazing. Love Ireland so much xxx

[@NorthernersonTour]

thank a for the tip

[@lynnettemcausland9532]

Stranraer is a lovely wee place, used to be the main ferry port to Ireland, but it's further up the road at Cairnryan now. Round the cost takes you to some beautiful wee places, very windey roads & some very impatient drivers! Loving you being up my way. I've been going to Lendalfoot, between Ballantrae & Girvan, since I was a child, beautiful coastline, very rocky with stunning views of the Ailsa Craig. Enjoy guys x😊

[@suelappin2802]

When are you coming to Mold in North Wales. Loads of charity shops for you Lisa. I volunteer on a Friday at Save the Children in the Mold it would be lovely to see you all.

Hi Lisa and mark love your walk about , very interesting , love the house or shop with painting on side , love your little dog chico , keep good work up love too see you both , but you missed the one in Whitby house painting ,

[@HowardB54]

Loved the vlog ! Many thanks for great content and superb presentation as ever! We took our caravan close by there to Seaward caravan park in Kirkcudbright last year and drove to Cairnryan and took a day trip to Belfast as foot passenger - think it was a tenner each but good value as only 2 hour ferry trip then a day in Belfast. Stay safe in all the bad weather Kind regards H&S

oh that’s amazing didn’t know that thank you ❤

Loved this video. Just come back from Scotland after 3 months there. We had our civil partnership in Girvan 16 years ago and have a painting of Ailsa Craig which was a gift from family. Hope you manage to get up to the Cairngorms. Loads of free park ups this time of year near Aviemore. Love to see Mark on skis. 😜

Hi Mark, lisa lovely places to see in Scotland 😊you enjoy them

Dock Park is nice, especially I spring and summer. There used to be a special dog park in the area, but we haven't been back in years so it may no longer be there.

[@NorthernersonTour]

it is wonderful and so historic

[@Susan18762]

Another very interesting video - thanks guys! Just fyi - 'contemporaries' are people who existed at the same time as a person you are talking about (in this case Robert Burns) - can be a similar age as well. Oh, Chicco really loves his gingerbread man toy! 🥰p.s. apple turnovers - yum!!

[@VanVenturesUK]

Another great video ❤

[@NorthernersonTour]

Thanks again!

[@stephenneville2282]

We have a static caravan just outside Stranraer so we are often in the town. Lots of nice places around leswalt has some nice walks and same near Kirkcolm. Looking out on loch Ryan you can see a small pointy island that’s Alsia Craig or paddy’s milestone it where curling stones come from.
