OMG the Haggis one rocks my boat! we were up there last Oct/Nov/Dec did the outer Hebrides and bloody loved the place. we had it to ourselves almost, not many were mad enough to endure the storms. we had to hunker down in Stornoway one night as we had a big one come in from the Atlantic and we were up on the Butt of Lewis which would have been terrifying. love your enthusiasm x
Ahhhh the haggis one was really nice, they all were to be honest 😊 I can’t wait to do more over that way, it just looks incredible over there, any amazing food places you’d recommend that way?
@@TheUrbanMotorhome well we went out of season so things weren't running as they would a peak season. Best to ask the locals as you go. The place is stunning. I left a.piece of my heart there when we left it was a very solemn drive home. Walking on an empty beach that twinkled as if it was covered in gemstones in the morning sun because it was frozen solid was an experience.
Can't wait for the vlogs but it will make me envious. Enjoy x
Hi Daz. Great you’re enjoying your life of dreams. Keep it up. Safe travels.
Top video Daz, the scenery was awesome! I don’t think I would ever want to leave that Parkup!! Would love to head to the NC500, Might give those Bratwursts a go as well. All the best ….Smithy
The NC500 is defo one ill be doing....still a few more years away yet till early retirement and my motorhome adventure begins, cant wait 😊🎉
don't wait. hire a van and go out of season - you'll love it
Great video as always, very informative and funny😂, I always watch on a Sunday morning makes me smile 😊
I've just been on a cruise so seeing you eating that stuff i'm feeling bloated hahaha
Great video Daz :D Not sure the weather is for us, but still very tempted! :D
Das, really enjoyed your Orkney Ilse trip 😄
Ahhhh same, I can’t wait to get back up there and Shetland next time, have you been to Orkney?
Just a tip, if you ❤ each post, the viewers appreciate it as you've read the post (which took them time to write)
Also I think it helps the yt algorithm.
Macmaster ❤️ every single post and he gets hundreds.
Dam you made me want a cheese toasty.. Andddd I’ve run out of cheeeese
RUN OUT OF CHEESE! 😱😱😱
That’s my worst nightmare haha
What no cheese shop visit.. your slipping a bit Daz 😊 thanks for filming some stunning views xx
Great video as always, & a great meal concoction with the sausages ✌️😁💙
Those cheese toasties look amazing.
Hi Daz really enjoyed watching your video looks lovely were you are bit wet at times the cheese toast looked banging really looking forward to seeing your next video keep safe 😊👍🏻
Durness Beach is glorious...glad you finally managed to get up there!!
Love to see place I may not visit but great to see through your travels.
Great video thank for sharing 👍
Ah man if I knew you were in my neck of the woods I would have grabbed a coffee with you. The most northern tip is called Dunnet Head.
4:02 is that game of thrones creator. George R R Martin behind you daz?! 😆 good vid as always mate 💪🏼
Daz, being keto is a real drag for a foodie, I have always said to my doctor that if I wasn't allowed to have veggies but was allowed rice, pasta, potatoes, bread and pastries, I would be the best patient ever and would no longer be diabetic. Even my hubby was also diabetic and his idea of a salad was meat, pork pies, hard boiled eggs, potato salad, coleslaw, crisps and not a hint of green leafy salad anywhere. It is really hard and I fight my inner food demons constantly. You cannot be a saint all the time, the occasional lapse is ok, don't beat yourself up x
Keep videos coming 😊
I am watching you cook your sausages while I am eating saveloys and boiled rice for my sunday night tea at 23-35.
I spend many hours on You Tube and Tik Tok so my eating and sleeping routines are altered lol .
I want your camper mate! The absolute perfect size!
Oh mate just like me , a big kid when it comes to melted cheese , you lucky git ❤
Reading the book as you driving along ?
A fantastic campsite up near John O Groats is called Ferry View, the lady that owns the site is really friendly and cooks a great breakfast and delivers the food to your van.
4:03 Santa fumin you’ve managed to record him on his day off
There one in Edinburgh I often get one for lunch they are top class
Why the laughing at nothing?
Maybe Daz is just a happy bunny. Try it sometime.
Daz is a great guy but his laughing is beginning to get me down too. It’s a shame because his earlier vlogs weren’t saturated with this childish behaviour.
My happiness is natural not contrived. It’s a sad state of affairs when you ask a straight question and people get arsey in relation to that question.
@@pageant1fd I agree 100%.
Someone laughing is getting you down? Get over yourselves
These comments, jeeeeesus?! How dare you be happy 🤯🤯
Daz you are awesome
WHAT ARE YOU LIKE? TOASTIES ENOGH FOR THREE PEOPLE . ID HAVE THE HAGGIS ONE.
Come on mate, do you blame me? Had to be done, gotta have a little taste and try them all, I didn’t want to but it was research for you the viewers! Haha that’s my story and I’m sticking to it! 🤣👍🏻
@@TheUrbanMotorhome GOOD ON YOU , ENJOY
Those beaches look absolutely stunning just a tad too cold
Hi Daz,does the toasty box delivery to Manchester 😂
Great scenery Daren. May I ask where do you put the my 3 words into. Is it google maps?? Thanks in advance
Well now I feel hungry!!!! Those TOASTIES . The scenery looks just stunning as does the book for the NC500, going to have to get a copy and head up there. New logo is looking great Daz
Haha! Ahhhh them toasties! 😋😋
Yeah it’s just amazing up there and their book is packed with all the info needed, it’s a banger!
The logo has been very long overdue to update, think it came out pretty well 😁👍🏻
Your first stopover after the ferry was at Loch Eriboll and the island in it was used during WWII for bombing practice in preparation for the RAF to bomb the Tirpitz battleship.
I hope he had the landowner's permission to stay overnight there, also hope that his vehicle insurance covers him for being off road.
Nice travel vid on channel good see your travel places keep up sharing you travel video on channel thanks lee
You laughing, brilliant!
Screams of depression
@@juliawhite9977 brilliant, no; sad is how I see it , he’s a troubled lad who needs some help. I’m not trolling , I’m concerned , really.
Love how you really enjoy what you're doing. Pay no attention to the miners life's for living not existing
Hi hi there I met you at the show. Lovely you to see you there was somebody parked in the middle with the dog fence around them and a dog of the UA-cam channel section. You seem to know everybody you had some massive group of friends you don't know any chance do you, they have a UA-cam channel all the best Colin
We are thinking of doing the 500 in our motorhome.Are you doing the complete journey,as I’ve heard a lot of it is single track roads with passing places.And not advisable to do in a large motorhome.And to do it properly it takes about a week with all the sites to see.
We did it in a 7.5metre motorhome no problem, plenty of passing places. We even did the applecross pass without an issue - although we got a bit of stick for it on our video by the motorhome police
@@motorhomemavericks1 Thanks for the information,will look forward to giving it a go.
Apple cross you have to do it
32,000 lochs in Scotland and only 1 Lake (The Lake of Menteth ) in the Trossachs
And Raith lake in Kirkcaldy
@@alanpaton694 I’m talking natural lochs and lake…..Raith was man made
Do you do all your videos on multiple cameras or just a single camera?
At 4:04. Is that captain Birds Eye behind you.
Dude you should have gone to Dunnet Head. There are nice places to wild camp in motorhomes up there
You cannot wild camp in Scotland in a motorhome.
@junehall2177 well plenty do
@@stevebeever2442 Yes, plenty do & plenty are breaking the law whilst doing so. The right to wild camp in Scotland specifically excludes motorised activity.
Right Daz you need to sort your terminology out fella :) It's a Loch, not a Lake and it's a Burn, not a stream. Great vid though mate!
Great video, toasty’s made me feel hungry. 😂
You loved the toasties, 😀, superb video , the weather a bit dull😕.
Love your new logo Daz👍
Hello mate I'm one of your subscribers come visit rhubarb farm in nether langwith we have a donkey and a pony and I would show you round what we do and grow there and I will let you stroke the donkey if you love donkeys
These comments are hilarious
Bit bad darran got to wear beanie in July stay happy cheers steve
You sound more like Billy Bunter ,than Billy Bunter.....🙄
Darren, need an air fryer recipe playlist ASAP kind sir
Worth breaking Keto then?!
Don’t share the what three words or locations of these parks ups. So many clowns these days who park up get the deck chairs and wine out at these places ruining it for everyone else who respects the spots. Great video tho!
Agreed, it's quite possibly private property too.
Are you real.
Nevermind chicken wings. Just make sure of fuel and gas or lpg
Daz you are a great guy, very entertaining but this recent behaviour of laughing so frequently with every sentence uttered is wearing thin. Cheery is great but you are taking it way too far. Didn’t use to , did you.
Maybe he’s happier now that he’s doing this full time instead of a job he perhaps didn’t enjoy?
@@Andrew-dk8rl Exactly. He's in control of his own life, not beholden to anyone and enjoying his freedom.🤗🕊💖 I love his laughter and obvious natural joy.🤗🌞💕
His laughing is good 👍 don't be so miserable
@@pepperpot542 my comment is not intended so much as a criticism but I’ve real concern for the guy, truly. It’s not his normal behaviour as portrayed earlier in his vlogs but is increasingly so recently.
Real concern ? Because he laughs alot ?
What's wrong with some of you miserable lot? So what if he's laughing? He's enjoying himself and good on him, too. You carry on laughing Darren there's too many serious miserable ppl out here, and it's only getting worse.. one short life, Darren, and I'm happy 😂 for you to share it with us.. 😁
BTW good to see the New logo 😁❤
Bloody hell I cant believe it. You can actually stand at the sign for free. The one at Landsend is fenced off and you have to pay for a picture stood at the side of it. Landsend is a tacky dump.
The Jocks are moaning about people using the NC500 route so bollocks to them, I shall go elsewhere
Us 'Jocks' ain't moaning about tourists,it's the self entitled twats that leave all their crap behind them,I'm sure you will be missed,trot on and enjoy your travels 👍🏴
@@dereknix69 And those who park on private property without landowner's permission pretending to "wild camp".
It's not the "jocks" it's English people who bought their council house at a huge discount and have now sold it for a fortune and have now moved up to the Scottish highlands and bought somewhere cheap. They have this romantic idea of how it should be and try and change things and throw their weight about to suit themselves. The locals call them white settlers.
tbf, we were there for 5 months and the locals were lovely, to the point that some of them showed us secret park ups. Although we did go out of season
Once you break keto it will take 6 weeks for the body to go back into it. There is no point Darren in doing Keto if you are not going to stick with it. Do or do not there is no try. It's a bit like sex Darren you go all the way or forget it.If you want to lose weight go to the gym and lift heavy weights you will soon lose a ton of weight.
It’s like saying I’m vegan between meals !
@@pageant1fd it just shows Darren is weak.
@@alohapoppet6107 his chairs aren’t 😜
You could do some beach casting from there
