No more furniture at the moment till you get the shed sorted insulated etc, hearing what you said when you greet visitors reminded me of an old Scottish uncle who would always say "come for a visit, you'll have had your tea"
@@richardhart7652 love it!
They always say in Glasgow, they say ‘come in! Have a cup of tea!’ In Edinburgh they say ‘come in! You’ll have had your tea?’
So funny! 'You'll have had your tea' can be translated to 'so I don't need to offer you any then'! 🤣
Nature never lets you down when it comes to beauty and majesty.
Thank you Sean for taking me with you on your wonderful jaunt today. For a lonely lady who doesn’t get out very far, it was a real treat! I tell you, I was there, and I lived it!
It 's soo relaxing walking through the Woods to your memories 🥰 wunderschöner Walk on a sunday morning. Danke dafür , have a nice day 👋
Dear Sean your country and village is very beautiful and sweet. Your a lucky man. I would love to live there. Thank you Sean for showing us around your lovely home. Ann
Good morning Sean, what a pleasure to walk the mountains to hear the water falls, Water has memory and keeps flowing over rocks and down through gullies, time and time again just as often as we walk in footsteps left by our ancestors.To see all this moves something inside of us, a memory triggered, an awakening of another time, yet still the streams run into rivers down hillsides cascading into a valley just as your own ancestors stood amongst the greenery in awe of Mother Earth. Great to see and feel. 🤗👏
What a Beautiful walk, Thank You for taking us. We really Enjoy ALL your videos.
Must be bittersweet visiting your childhood haunts and thinking of family no longer here. We always went to Bridlington on the east coast for out hols, last week in July, first week in August, pit weeks, we always went to Sewerby Park with its gardens and little zoo. Its more or less the same now and its near enough to go on a day trip. Happy memories of time past and there's a cafe where you can get a nice cup of tea 😊
I live near Brid, and went to school there for six years. Yes, Sewerby is lovely. The beach at Brid has lovely. firm sand. My Grandma went to Brid for a week every summer. I could never understand the attraction, especially after being at school there. One year, she bought herself a gold watch, which I wear on a daily basis.
Beautiful to see this morning thank you Sean
Nothing more beautiful than nature
Stunning scenery.!!! I have been to wales quite a few times a. A few yrs ago now . Mainly to climb . The three peaks ext . Allso both wales such a stunning place . X
Thank you for taking me with you on your walk around the mountain’s and water falls, lovely, took me back to when I was I child , went to Dolgellau water falls with my mum and dad, many times, had a caravan in Tywyn snowdonia they were my memories of lovely holidays, I have been back to visit pay my respects, took my children there when they were young, always holiday in wales enjoy your time take care
Thank you so much for this incredible walk. I felt as if I was right there. This week I start injections in my knee. Hopefully it helps me to be able to use it and continue my hip rehab. 3 months has been a long time. Being mostly immobile has made me appreciate the little things even more. Your channel is so relaxing and informative. I really enjoy the simple life you are making for yourself. I hope you are making the life you desire.
I love North and South Wales. It's so different and beautiful in different ways.❤❤
This was lovely and just for a moment, I could imagine the coolness around that river. We are sweltering in the Southern USA right now.
Fantastic filming Sean, taking us to places we didn’t know existed.
This video really brings back memories. Back in 1972, I was on a geography course at the CoE in Caerdydd. We had a few trips out to look at various things including Cwm Sgwd Gwladus, Porth-yr-ogof, and Bwa maen (think that's how to spell it), We also visited the silica mine and those marks in the stones would, indeed, be connected with the tramway that took the loaded wagons away from the mine. We discovered the incline where they were lowered down, although it must be much changed now. And afterwards a welcoming piunt at the Angel in Pont Nedd Fechan!! Brains I think it was. For bringing back a happy memory, diolch yn fawr!!
Wow - luv waking up to your stunning videos, plus seeing little clips of your old cine camera footage 🌅🌅🌅
lovely walk Sean. I used to go there a lot when I was able, as well as the falls at Ystradfellte. Further on from Sgwd Gwladys (Lady Falls) is Sgwd Einon Gam (Fall of the Crooked Anvil). I doubt you'd have made it there that day though as there is no path for the last part and you have to cross the river three times to get there! Sgwd Ddwli Upper and Lower falls are also there (if you turned right at the bridge) but much more accessible.
They used to mine silica there and also there are dynamite works in the area too. I've had a couple of strange, ghostly experiences at the falls!!
Over in the Swansea Valley is Henrhyd Falls, used as the entrance to he Bat Cave in Batman Rises 🙂
Enjoyed thinking about the concept of raw milk and its safety. It’s currently illegal to sell it on the high street in the UK and is only available direct from registered producers usually at farms or online as per Sean’s purchase. For obvious reasons raw milk isn’t going to be ‘safer’ on average than pasteurised milk. A 2019 Public Health review found raw milk the cause between 1992-2017 for 26 outbreaks of intestinal infectious disease (involving 343 people and resulting in 41 hospitalisations). Pasteurised milk over that same period was the cause of 12 outbreaks. It should be noted however that raw milk producers have samples tested four times per year and the FSA thinks that risk from it isn’t so unacceptable that adults shouldn’t have the right to drink it but believe there should be further improvements to manage the risk. The jury is still out on the whole raw v pasteurised milk debate and whether there are certain benefits in raw milk potentially removed via pasteurisation - so as with most things in life it’s best one does their own research and whether they may perhaps personally benefit from consuming one over the other. Would be interesting to hear from anyone who currently drinks raw milk and their experiences with it 🤠🐮
Its not for me i know someone who got ill on it i buy fresh jersey milk pasteurised from my local farm but not raw
@@wales123100 yeah must admit unless more scientific data came out definitively proving the benefits (which is probably years off) I personally wouldn’t risk it - especially with an aging body as well it’s harder to fight off illness and regain health back!
@@Buzzj4k agree and for me personally anyway it’s a bit disconcerting that by law the raw milk products have to declare that due to not being heat treated, they ‘may contain organisms harmful to health’. Also, European regulations as a whole on things like additives are a whole lot stricter than the US for example and I’m very glad for it - there’s enough rubbish already in a lot of the processed stuff we already buy!
Great information
Hello, I once worked with a retired diary farmer. The thing he said about raw milk was that you have to consume it in a timely manner. I think you're playing with fire, freezing it and defrosting it. Does the farm say you can freeze it? It's easy for milk to spoil when you're trying to defrost in the best of circumstances. Just drink it and enjoy it - fast!.
Yes the farm does say you can freeze it.
We had a Jersey cow My ma would milk her 2× per day .She sometimes skimmed the cream for dad's coffee and we drank the rest and she cooked with it. We had an ice box cooled by a block of ice! Some days we churned the milk for butter. She placed it on cheesecloth and rinsed and Pat the butter in a mold !'The leftover buttermilk was cooled in the ice box It was used for cooking and light n fluffy biscuits or pancakes with butter and syrup or jam ! Ma would drink it in the summer! We all grew up healthy and fit. Grandpa sent the vet out yearly to ensure our grass fed cow was healthy! Nothing better than milk straight from a healthy , happy cow ! 🎉
Ps. Our biscuits are a type of bread roll. We didnt have loaf bread. The rolls are placed on a preheated griddle in the oven and baked. Sometimes the whole dough ball was placed in a preheated skillet and pressed flat cooked on the range. It was flipped halfway while cooking and cut into pieces at meal time! 🎉
This is a lovely video. It's great to see you exploring and showing beautiful Wales to your viewers. Nice to have a pub to go and sit down in after a trek.
So beautiful! Thank you for sharing.❤
Hi Sean thank you for taking me on your walk it was just beautiful talking about a car my uncle had a morris traveler lt was green with vanished trim on it he had it for many years one again many thanks you have made my day take care luv sadie xxxx
Thanks for that beautiful walk along the river. I've been dying to see the mountain with all the leaves on the trees and it is as stunning as I thought it would be😍
Sean I just loved watching this video.the water 💦 fall I just love it walking through the woods gosh I just think that's beautiful listening to the river go on its journey.i would just look at it wondering to myself where it might be going! Thank you Sean for this video I really enjoyed watching it! positivity peace and love ♥️
Stunning view, the water falls are amazing. Would love to walk round there. So peaceful and back to nature
Always test raw milk for Listeria before drinking.
I bet the level of the river in mid July has not been that high for a few years.
Another stunning walk. Pub meal finishing off the day nicely 😊
Was lovely to do the walk with you. Thank you for sharing. I remember being along that river with my late fiancé. I have lovely pictures and memories.
Lovely Childhood memories Sean. Beautiful scenery there today. 😊 The one at 11.26 on was stunning. Hope you enjoyed your time with friends too
Hi sean the walk was so beautiful i was with you sean ..when i was a child i used to go to my grandma's and grandad's farm up in the hills in midwales and my grandfather would milk by hand the cows in the morning and a jug of warm frothy milk he would give me some and the cats it was beautiful straight from the cow no need to treat it and im still here sean healthy days they were i feel so privalaged to have had that .love from Aberystwyth ❤❤
Bore da Sean,
“Lovely to see you, when are you leaving” 😂Yes that’s us Welsh.
Thanks for taking us on that beautiful walk, what a fantastic place. Annie🏴
Beautiful walk to go on this morning Sean took me right back to April when I was there. I drank untreated milk for years in the 70s scooped straight out of the container every morning unfortunately I got brucellosis from it because it wasn't a brucellosis accredited herd back then.x
Hi Sean, lovely to see the waterfall, the whole walk looked so scenic! 😍 I can imagine it must have stirred some strong emotions from when you'd visited there in the past. Looks like you had a wonderful time with your friends anyway!
Good idea keeping the wool and straw from your raw milk and yoghurt deliveries - also I'd keep that foil insulated bag might come in useful! I don't really know much about raw milk, other than it's supposed to have more goodness in it. Will be interesting to hear your opinion once you've tried some. Take care, until next time.
Dear Sean. Thank you for a lovely walkabout. I do so enjoy seeing all the wonders you show. I am also looking for a chaise lounge for a small study I am designing to use as my office/ library. I love rivers and waterfalls and now I think I need to take a wander down by Lake Ontario to see the water and beaches. We also have some immensely beautiful parks in this province and since it is summer I should o and enjoy them, I use to take my children all the time 30 years ago, it made them into nature lovers and my late daughter use to paint the landscape and rivers. Thank you for this video it was a s always a sweet quiet calm time spent with a lovely friend.
Sean you made my day I grew up in the valley I spent hundreds of hours playing and fooling about up in the waterfalls I used to live directly opposite the White horse pub what a special time in me my mum and my brothers life I'm 47 now and remember all of it
Gee Sean your walk reminds me how very similar where I live in Tasmania is to your area in Wales, we too have waterfalls, Russell Falls being our most popular in the Mt Field National Park. Famous for Fagus too. Really enjoyed your video, thank you, spectacular
Thanks Sean.. great walk.. love the old..footage too ..
Wonderful scenery, thats Wales for you I have already mentioned but Pontneathvaughan was Richard Burtons home towns.
Thank you for the nature walk. You are surrounded by natural beauty. Your video reminded me when I was young and my family loved to walk in the forest and enjoy the rivers and waterfalls. Thank you for the happy memories and for sharing Wales. I visited Wales years back around Portmeirion. We did take the little steam train up into the mountains and enjoyed the scenery .
Good morning Sean,what a beautiful walk you had, it's funny how nature can adapt itself to growing anywhere. I was walking past a little playground the other day and I was so tempted to have a go on a swing 😂 What gorgeous scenery and another catchy song! Oooh! That yoghurt sounds yummy 😋 I think I remember you having bungay butter in one of your London videos.I really laughed when you said you had been to too good to waste! I commented that it was probably on the list of places to go with your visitors on the video before your holiday 😂 take care Sean 💜
I love walking in Wales ❤
Ooh my grandad had a green Morris Traveller, loved it. Lovely video ❤
You've brought back memories of my teenage years when you mentioned the Morris Traveller.
I lived in West Virginia and wanted to buy my first car. I found an especially cute Morris Mini Minor that a neighbor had brought back with them from being stationed overseas. They wanted $100 for it! What a deal. However, no matter how much I begged, my grandmother would not let me buy the car as she felt it was too small, and with my shifting abilities, I would be in danger!
So I said, "Goodbyes" to the car of my dream but never forgot it ❤
Beautiful views all around. ❤ Awww, too bad the chaise lounge got sold. Imagine how beautiful Topsy and Amber would have looked using it 🐈⬛🐈⬛ ❤
Looking at this video, I thought, hey, it looks like a rain forest. IT IS!
'The Celtic Rainforests of Wales are mostly tucked into steep river valleys in rural Gwynedd, Ceredigion and Powys.'
Bootiful!
Beautiful, thanks for taking us on your hike! It reminds me very much of the Hocking Hills area in Ohio, USA.
Amazing views, the waterfall, the mountain top and the drive. Wonderful!!
Superb scenery sean. and beautiful music, highly insperational, glorious!
Loved the bit at 25-23 about the old Welsh saying “nice to see you, when are you going back!” as my dad (welsh) was always saying that which was always embarrassing to mother and us kids. I thought it was father being rude.😂
Ah, Sean! That's what I've been hoping for..a hike in the hills to a waterfall! It was SO beautiful, thank you for taking us! I believe all the items you had in the cupboard were bought when you wanted to make your own granola. By the way, I've been meaning to ask about a phrase I've heard you use. What does it mean when you say "And Bob's your uncle!"
The scenery spectacular Sean the foliage everywhere so vividly grean fed by the nutrients of the flowing stream stunning ❤
Thanks for bringing back good memories of my beautiful country Wales
I make my own Kefir because it's the easiest and highest number of Probiotic. I don't get sick when i have it, but I get quite sick if I eat supermarket milk/cheese. In New Jersey raw milk isn't allowed so our milk is ultra pasteurized which means it gets heat up to 180F (just pasteurized is 160F) what happens is at that high temperature it changes the molecule of the milk and stops "being milk". Also, it kills all bacteria and yeast that help us that are not cows to digest milk proteins. So if u get raw milk has every needed for us to digest and too steong for u can dilute with a bit of spring water.
Thank you for video Sean. Absolutely beautiful, waterfalls amazing.
All the best 👍
Oh yes and it's true in Wales lovely to see you when you going back that made a laugh so true Sean 😂❤
Beautiful walk Sean, I love the idea of raw milk. I used to buy some from a farm in Buckinghamshire and loved it. Totally agree with the “visitor” thing … lovely to see them but nice when they toddle off 😊
Another lovely Vlog Sean ❤
I enjoyed your walk ,listening to the water. So relaxing ,about your saying at the end of your videos. About hello how long are you staying. I used to hear it alot when I visited Wales.😊
Oh thats the stuff i got in my meat pack... Ive decided to go Carnivore for 30days and ordered meat from a home kill company..they delivered it with that wool insulation too...box was completely surrounded and had a lid as well...and several ice packets.. Im not sure what i can use it for at the moment but have kept it..I also buy milk from a diary...theyre just up the road so thats easy...
Wow amazing. So spectacular
Seven sisters, a stones throw from here.
I used to drink the milk from the bucket whilst it was still warm as a child, loved it 😍 will have to order some milk and butter. Thank you
Lovely packaging on your dairy/diary products Sean! ❤
Beautiful falls Sean
Lovely video Sean, the walk thro' the woods & sound of the river flowing, rushing over the rocks..beautiful. Reminded me of walking along the Wye river below Symonds Yat rock in the Forest of Dean where also you can end your walk at the pub for a nice meal & cup of tea. How far is the walk to the waterfall?
Bootiful...as I sip my nice cup of tea😊
Thank you Sean, for permitting us to visit a place , most of us will never see in person. Its a gorgious area of our tiny planet ! 😊
Thanks for the ferns and moss, stones and trees, and waterfalls. Great hike. Looks like good milk did you take some out before you froze it?...Enjoy your guest, have fun❤
Beautiful walk Sean.
Stunning walk sean flask of tea and ham roll when you find somewhere to sit down i can remember small local dairy used to get raw milk at the side door early morning.got jersey milk at shop going to make ricepudding not good for my diet but what the hell youve got to have a treat now and again
Been to the caves Sean it was amazing was planning to go back but because of ill health it won’t be possible, love your videos can’t wait till you get the homestead up and running been watching your early ones.
What a beautiful stream and waterfalls! Thanks for sharing!
I was there as a child, summer if 1976 peak drought, the river was barely a trickle. Butter looks gorgeous ! we make our own from raw cream but in big batches as its a 3hr drive each way to pick up the cream once a month. Just cannot be beaten on taste. I grew up on a farm, milk came straight from the chiller in the morning & tasted of grass and me mam made the best farmhouse butter for miles around.
There's a raw milk dispenser in Aberystwyth near the train station!
:-O
Watch this nice cool walk in nature during rest from garden work in 90plus degree heat. Was a pleasure
Gorgeous walk and seeing the falls and the sound of them made me feel like I was right there with you .
Don’t forget to eat or freeze the salmon if you can’t fix it before your friends leave. Would hate you to not eat it before it spoils
Take care and see you soon.❤❤❤
My siblings and I were bought up on raw milk. Dad ran a smallholding he had a jersey cow and the milk from that cow was like cream .The only test that I know it had was for TB . As it passed the test we were OK to drink it. Dad would come home with a churn of milk mum would strain it through some muslin,put it in mason jars and put it in the fridge. We had it neat, mum cooked with it as in puddings etc. Today's milk is tasteless compared to that milk I remember.
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL VID/thank you/thought you were going to be off air for a week/then keep seeing you have done another one/i love this channel so much/i always feel i can breathe a little better after watching//^
I couldn't count the number of times I have been to Dan Yr Ogaf caves. I first went when I was a young boy with my family in the early to mid 60s. It's expanded a great deal now and has added attractions.
Fabulous video Sean, Wales is so beautiful 😍
You truly have landed in paradise! Bet the night sky is brilliant!
I grew up in North Carolina, USA. We had raw milk from my grandparents' farm. I think now you can not sell raw milk to people in NC, only for animal food.
As far as I know no one was ever ill from my grandmother's milk, butter or eggs. That is how she made her money while my grandfather, aunt and uncles grew peaches, cotton, vegetables and flowers for sell.
We just saw walterfalls in the Pisgah National Forest in the Appalachian Mountains of Western North Carolina on vacation.
Amazing enjoyed it beautiful
Fabulous. Thank you. xx
If you want a little car, get a Hyundai i10! A Morris Traveller would be wonderful but it'd be forever at the mechanic shop xD Very enjoyable Sean, I could listen to your lovely voice and memories all day, you are such a natural. Loved how you inserted your old film at the falls
Beautiful walk ..Thanks Sean! 🤩
Dwli ar Pont Nedd Fechan - Love Pont Neath Vaughn. You can reach Scwd Yr Eira from Dinas Rock a little up the valley from the Angel. You can walk behind Scwd Yr Eira. Hen Rhyd falls is nearby at Ceolbren on the way to Dan Yr Ogof. It's the hightest single drop fall in South Wales. So many magical places to visit just on your doorstep. Lovely video. Diolch.
Beautiful
Oh forgot to mention , dont forget to take some milk out of the raw milk cartons before putting in the freezer as the milk expands the same as pasteurised milk. 🥛 🐮 💐
Beautiful countryside!
Beautiful scenery and lovely music. Thank you Sean. 😊
I put my headphones on for this video and got lost in the sounds of the water
Sean, horse drawn tramway many in South Wales
That was a great walk you had with your friends, the waterfalls were magnificent but so powerful. Wean yourself off Too Good to Waste Sean and save up for a Morris Traveller. No don't do that I like to see what you buy.
There is a water fall that you can walk behind at a place we called the Blue Lagoon by Ystradfellte meaning valley of the river Mellte, in the Brecon beacons, have you ever been there Sean
When a child.
Alovely way to start a Sunday morning, watching your video , I feel at home watching you walk along by the river love the sound of running water, love seeing all the tree roots coming up along the trail, and the waterfall , beautiful, your music was perfect with the waterfall scene, sad, of memories long ago, and coming home leaving your day behind, pitty your visitors picked a rainy week, been horrid up hear in Cumbria too.
On the day they left the sun came out. 🤣
What a fabulous walk!
Gorgeous! So lovely to hear the sound of rushing water.
Stunning scenery, so soothing walking through nature and listening to the water. Im lucky as well to have things like this near me in Scotland. Very interesting about the milk Sean. Enjoy your time with friends 😊
