    No, if you have to go then maybe. But a trip to visit, just to visit then hell no. I know people who live there who don't even go into the city centre, which is one of the worst city centres around.

    Being honest, you talking about donating whilst you where on top of the cliff made me laugh so much!! In terms of places to visit and videos, I have a few ideas. There is a little town in the middle of wales called Bala, very picturesque and a beautiful lake to kayak on. Also I don't know if you know anything about the extreme points of the Uk (northernmost, southernmost etc) but I think it would make for a cool video. In case you want to consider it: Northernmost: Dunnet head, Scotland (for the mainland) Southernmost: Lizard point, cornwall (a lot easier to get to lol) Easternmost: Ness point, lowestoft, suffolk (good proximity to lowestoft train station) Westernmost: Ardnamurchan point, scotland As well there is the capitals challenge (all 4 capitals of the uk in 24 hours) and a lot of places on the south coast like bournemouth or paignton would be really interesting to visit, as in summer they are almost like the mediterrenean. I hoped all this helped lol

    Barry Island was separated from the mainland by Barry Sound until the Victorian era when docks were built to connect it. There was also a steam locomotive graveyard there and as a kid, it used to fascinate me when we passed in in the car when we had day trips to Barry.

    Nice video. Well, as you're probably aware, there's not a lot of largish urban areas in Wales. Sticking to the M4 corridor you have Newport, Cardiff and Swansea. You could also maybe do Neath and Llanelli. There is also the former coal mining towns just up country from Cardiff in the Rhondda valley, which would be an interesting video to say the least. Then you have to go to North Wales, where you have the coastal dual carriageway linked to the M56, where you have Chester and Wrexham eventually ending up in Holyhead. The rest of Wales is pretty much empty.

    There used to be a rule that no building could be taller than the highest tree in MK in order not to ruin the view but they got rid of the rule and now we have buildings like the hotel la tour. Milton Keynes was built in mind of cars/transport, pedestrians, families and cyclists so there are many green spaces, redways, bridges/underpasses and roads with roundabouts. It was built between London and Birmingham due to the lack of residential space in the two places from growing population so it sits nicely on the railway line to take you directly to both places for those who had to commute to work. The grid layout is orientated to line up with the sun cycle of the summer solstice which is why there is Midsummer Boulevard. 7:14 - it's an outdoor stage Great video and hoped you liked the large amount of walking.

    You really had a good walk around this town. You looked quite warm with your hood up. I hope your cousin didn't get too cold! When you said it was a 30 minute walk to the beach, I was a bit worried. That would have meant the same time to get back😱 Glad it didn't take as long as you thought! I'm not sure if Aberystwyth would be that easy to get too from where you are, but I like that town. I stayed there for a week some years ago. It has an old Victorian cliff railway, similar to the one in my town. How's Dylan btw?

    Shame your battery went before you got to the funfair. Henry Danter owns it and he's usually there , he loves giving interviews about the fair because it means so much to him . Also on the point the other side of whitmore bay used to be Barry Butlins it had a huge pool outside and i think could accommodate 6000 holidaymakers also had a chairlift and small funfair of their own . Shame its all gone now . If you Google Barry Butlins you'll see what i mean ,there will be lots of pictures of it .
