    My kids never seemed to feel the cold and always just stripped off and waded into the loch/river etc. every day I get to enjoy the sight of two lochs, the gare loch and Loch Lomond, an amazing place to live and work. Thank you for your videos in general but specifically these ones.

    Ciao Eleanora! Was not expecting another video so quick! But many many thanks for the upload. Love the autumn vibes, the brown and orange leaves, the tunes and all the colours, perhaps this is best season of the year. BTW where you went swimming there was this lovely mist very atmospheric. Safe travels onwards. Arrivederci, Rafael

    Hi Ellie, absolutely adore the scenery around the 10min mark - it looks stunning ( and i thought the Lakes were the best) .And you still have Glen Coe to see before you get to Fort William. Stay safe lovely ❤

    You'll probably be at your next site before you read this but Glen Nevis Campsite is really nice. It has excellent facilities. Please enjoy your stay in Scotland. Be careful near water - our rivers have really strong currents. They can whip you away in a second. Stay safe out there and enjoy

    Did you find a McCosta while
    You were there? I feel sure they would have heard the legend of your Costaholism and would have been waiting for you!

    In a city there are more people than the network can properly handle, less people in the middle of nowhere so the network tower can provide everyone using it with a good connection. I live close to liverpool town so my signal is bad anyway, but I also live right next to a football stadium and whenever there is a match on, I can't get any signal at all for hours because of the increase of users, hate football more since I've lived here than ever before lol

    Ok I officially declare you a nutter. Who goes swimming when it’s that cold? Escapees from the Funny Farm. Yes, I know I’m being politically incorrect. Stiff shit. I don’t get the urge to go swimming until it’s at least 30°.
    I do have a question. I see you eat a lot of two minute noodles, but do you put anything else in there with it? Those noodles have absolutely no nutritional value at all, in fact, you may as well eat a bit of cardboard. Even veggies from a can would do the trick. You’re going to need energy if you go away and go hiking or anything like that. Even when I was travelling around Australia with trucks, I would have an esky full of ice, so I could carry meat, and some veggies.
    Did I mention to you that I just bought another car fridge? I know I have 2 x 50 L fridges in the back, but I need a drinks fridge between the seats, just enough to hold 12 cans. Now I’m looking forward to the next episode to see whether you free camp or not.
    Okay, enjoy the rest of your week as now it seems as you are already back home. Just remember, two minute noodles are not a meal. It’s a bit like eating the pastry for a pizza without the topping anyway stay safe and I wait with antici……………pation to see whether you get locked up for doing more crazy shit. 😂😂😂 take care and❤❤❤ from Perth Western Australia, where next Monday it will be 31° and swimming weather.
