      The Endless Adventure guys I know I keep bugging you to come to Leicester but you’ve got to, my friend has a double-decker bus that he converted into an awesome cafe. His name is Joe, the cafe is “the mashTun” look it up on Facebook. Hope to see you soon, keep up the great vids! 😃

      Hey guys, you really missed a trick when you visited Brum . You should have visited the Black Country only a few miles from Birmingham www.bclm.co.uk/visiting/surrounding-area/460.htm for a real Spit and sawdust pub you should try here and check out the crazy menu, www.madorourkes.com/history.html or the local connection to the Titanic, www.nationalgeographic.com.au/engineering/forging-the-anchor.aspx or the glass blowing historic town of Stourbridge, www.stourbridge.com/stourbridge_glass.htm

      As a USAer, and watching many of their videos, these two do try to pronounce correctly!..and they really try to use British terms when in the U.K. Good for them! I am from the central U.S., and was raised in a suburban housing development in which all the street names were U.K. cities and towns.or districts. I grew up on North Chelsea, the next street was North Brighton, North Leeds, North Manchester..etc..but when it came to North Birmingham..we pronounced it clumsily, as 'BirmingHAM'...just as wrong as my pronunciation of the Worcestershire sauce I loved as a child. It would hurt U.K. native ears to hear how we pronounced it!

    You've captured Brum really well - the city I grew up in (though I live in West London now). Carl Chinn is a great character so brilliant to see you met him. The Balti houses in the Sparkhill district are amazing - I first went to one of these restaurants back in 1982 and was totally hooked. Great vlog - looking forward to see what you do next in Brummagem! :)

    I really enjoy your videos so it's nice to see you getting spoiled by Visit Britain with the hotel and the dinner, hope you enjoyed it as you both deserve it for bringing such interesting content to your subscribers. Hope you get a proper curry and get some real ale. Mild beers are a specialty in the Birmingham area and as you like Guinness you should try a pint of mild in a good real ale pub. It's not stout but a a roasted malt beer with a lower alcohol content and bags of flavour.

      Devonian I live and work in Birmingham and I didn’t like it before. But there’s billions of investment in the city centre. Sometimes reminds me of a Chinese city - constantly in construction. Not there yet, but it’s getting better. Not an advertisement to my Instagram, but I have pics of recently developments if you are interested to see. See Liemleo.

    Carl Chinn - Brummy legend! You should come to England in the summer. Stratford upon Avon is a beautiful and historic town, my son lives there - well worth a visit.
