A day in the van with my greyhound in Cornwall ✌️
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 жов 2024
- Today I’m hanging in the van with Miss Nancy the greyhound and going on an epic walk from Botallack on the Penwith Pensinsula of Cornwall down the Kenidjack Valley to Cape Cornwall along the South West coasta path. The mining ruins and coastal scenery are incredible, this is one of the favourite walks I have ever done! We also did some work and cooking in the van with an amazing view.

OMG please please please put Miss Nancy on a lead - so many dogs die by falling from cliffs in the South West Peninsular - I have a greyhound and I love him and I can see how loved ms Nancy is- they can’t see the edge and you know what greys are like ‘45 miles an hour in 4 strides ‘ she is beautiful by the way xxxx❤
I will try to be more careful I can see there’s a bit here she should have been on the lead 😳 I promise I often do if we are near a cliff edge or tricky bit, I just don’t film it so much! I thought I was being paranoid though so I appreciate this and thank you she is 😍 xxx
Hey, great content, never give up! It's taken massive guts to do what you're doing, you'll get there and it'll be worth it.
Obviously you're just starting out but it's always clear when a new youtuber has got "the nack" and you definitely have.
Good luck with it all.
Thank you I really appreciate that! I haven’t found it easy being in front of the camera , the whole thing is a massive learning curve but it is certainly interesting! Hope I can just keep improving with each video.
So glad I found your channel. Sheba and I love watching. Also love the humour you inject into your travels. Hope all is well now it's colder. I am looking forward to seeing where you go next year. I too am lucky as I live in Dorset, and there are many beautiful places to take Sheba.
Very glad you found us! Sheba is a great name for a dog, loads of beautiful places in Dorset I need to explore there more with Miss Nancy.
pratchett and patterson? hell yes.
I love reading ❤️ and quite a lot of different think, Pratchett is definitely one of my favourite authors ever what a man
Agree Kim enjoy the double pike. We love your videos! ❤ xxxxx
Thanks Emily! I’ll try to work on Nancys somersaults xxx
Lovely part of the country and a beautiful looking tori and Nancy be safe and take care ❤x
Thank you we will x
@@missnancysdayoff thanks for the reply made my day and like I said you are a very beautiful lady naturally beautiful you cannot be single surely ❤️x
Amazing scenery
It’s a stunning place
I live in Devon and know Cornwall quite well and if it ever stops raining I would like to visit this for myself,is this near Penzance please.
I’m not sure if it’s ever going to stop raining! Although I found the wind was even worse 😅 yes it’s about 20 mins from Penzance, out on the Penwith peninsula just past St Just, we walked from Botallack mine along coast and down Kenidjack Valley
Well your video popped up 👍🏻🚐🐾 so I watched 👍🏻🚐🐾 and how lovely 😊 I live in Devon with my dog 🐾 and explore Devon / Cornwall mostly - with a friend who also has a van and dogs - it was a pleasure to watch 😊 though I agree about leads on the coast path - be careful x now to catching up on the series and await future trips/videos for ideas
Thank you 🤗 I will definitely be more careful with miss Nancy I wouldn’t forgive myself if something happened to her. Although tbh I fear for her anytime she is off the lead. That’s great it must be fun going with a friend, we will be exploring more of Devon too let me know if you have any recommendations! 🫶
Famous five adventures were my favourite read as a young lad
Good fun right, I’ll still like reading them now to relax!
I'm in Cornwall, done van life. Love your take on it
Thanks! Do you still have the van?
@@missnancysdayoff no it died. I'm looking for a new one.
Sad times, hope you find something
Now getting the views you guys deserved.xx
Can’t believe it, go Miss Nancy!
It looks stunning there!! I very much enjoy Miss Nancy’s dismount and the gymnast reference! 💛
Great dismount and a rapid withdrawal 😅
Just happened upon your channel and really enjoyed watching all of your videos 😃looking forward to seeing your coming adventures👍
Thank you! 🤘
What beautiful scenery. Miss Nancy is adorable. We throughly enjoyed this. Loved the famous five reference! New subs here! cheers 🍻
Thank you! I love old books, Miss Nancys full name is actually Nancy Drew 😅 cheers!🍻
@@missnancysdayoff my cousin was a massive Nancy Drew fan. For me it was the famous five all the way! We’d love to do an explore round Dorset, Devon and Cornwall just for famous five reasons !!
@@PostcardAndAPint definitely, with a whole lot of picnics twists of salt and ginger 🍺!
Bryson, Pratchett and Dawkins.
3 of my favourite authors, and of course Africa, on the southern tip of which I live.
Greyhounds, contrary to popular belief are notoriously lazy and chilled dogs. They can sleep happily for 18 hours a day and are perfectly suited to living in small places. But be prepared to make way for them on your furniture, they love comfy spots!
it’s true I actually got Nancy when I was living in a flat, and she was perfectly cosy! of course you do need to find somewhere for them to run around sometimes, but I think they can make any living place work as long as they have a warm cosy bed or three…or your sofa!
The stunningly good YT algorithm recommend your vid, Tori - it seems to work right from the off 🚀
Cornwall is beautiful and you caught the weather 🌄
Thank you for rescuing Nancy and the others 💜 I'm a former rescue centre volunteer. Your supressed feelings were good - best keep her on a lead as the coast and Cornwall are dangerous - all it takes is her to launch after a rabbit. Try a 2m Halti lead or long line, but never an extendible or she'll snatch it out of your hand or it'll break - 6 strides to 30mph or summat, isn't it ?!
Love the diagonal paneling!
You're a natural communicator and creative - thanks for sharing 😊
Congrats on 800 subs. I spoiled it and made it 801.
🙏thank you so much for your kind words, I’m so excited we are up to 800 subscribers it’s amazing! Very happy you found us ☺️ I hope to be able to volunteer at a rescue one day that’s so good, or get more rescue animals. I do my best to keep her safe you’re right accidents can happen and it doesn’t take much, I just try to give her freedom where I can as well. I did try a long lead once and it wrapped around her leg and cut her, they are just so fast! So I stick with the shorter ones now. Beaches are the best! ♥️
What country is this...the scenery is freaking dope😮....my apologies I'm from South Africa...we don't have alot of castles and beautiful coastlines like your country plus it's always sunny here even in winter
England! It is a pretty beautiful country with a Lot of old stuff which I like 😀 however it also rains a ton and is cold and grey in the winter! I’m sure South Africa is beautiful also, I’ve never been
@@missnancysdayoff 😮😮😮....amazing never realized England had such beautiful coastlines I think of London when people talk about England, SA is a nice country, it's corruption that's ruined it, maybe one day🫡🫡🫡
@@arnoldsee8474 I reckon most people do! And London is an awesome city I lived there for a few years, but there’s a lot of amazing and varied countryside too which is what I love best! That really sucks, I also think fairy penguins when I think SA thats right right?!
New sub here. Oh my. Your doggie is gorgeous x
So glad to have you! Thank you I would have to agree about Miss Nancy 🥰 x
I'm sure you aware, but just in case be very wary of adders. We live in this area and recently lost a puppy to an adder. Adders can be more venomous in the spring when they come out of hibernation.
I didn’t know there were adders there thank you we will watch out! I’m so sorry about your puppy.
Top tip on the doggy poo, kick it into the hedge or side, its fully biodegradable, its the TV tells everyone to put it in a plastic bag, another directive. Rabbit poo is really good for dogs, its like a super probiotic way better than grass that helps their gut bio, i was a bit disturbed by them eating it then i looked into it, its natures best medicine.
We follow leave no trace ethics so as I have yet to train Miss Nancy to dig an 8 inch hole far enough away from water, I always take home her poops and any other rubbish generated 😂 That’s good news about the rabbit poo though, she does find it a delicacy. I guess it’s the least grim of the things she tries to eat 🫣
what do you do for work if i may ask? nice video :)
Of course, I’m a jeweller I have a website that I sell my work , I also do illustrations for merch 😊 thank you, we will be heading back to cornwall soon for further exploration 👌
Walking the coastal path is epic, you can fall off and die.
Some do.
This does occur to me when I’m out my myself. I’m definitely going to try not to fall off and die.
Okay
So you dominate
You have thumbed it out girl.
Cornwall is wtf
How do you promote your videos please 🙏 💗
Hey, how do you mean promote? I don’t think I do 😅♥️
great footage, but please keep your dog on a lead on the cliffs, In 2020, the RNLI had 57 lifeboat launches related to dog incidents. That same year, 124 dog walking incidents were attended by lifeguards. All it takes is a momentary distracton and your best friend could be lost forever.
Thank you I am interested to hear that, I usually put her on a lead if we are near a cliff edge but I wasn’t sure if I was just being paranoid! Appreciate the info 🙌
@@missnancysdayoff Thanks, keep up with trips, you seem to be picking some fine places
@@darrenj3267 I will try! 😊
I wonder if you'll track this one down? It's a no brainer, keep the van, sell the car and the dog as a single item.
Never!
Is that the dog, the SUV or both. I'm allergic to dogs so there's no hope for us I suppose. My only remaining hope is to get some exposure in the US and right now my publicist over there has gone off on holiday with my money.@@missnancysdayoff
your beautiful, have you got a boyfriend?
Best video yet, stunning views, stunning smile and epic greyhound x x
Thanks! I need to get more practice in then hopefully keep improving 😂 xx
Loved your fabulous five explore. There is something meditative about long walks out in nature. Like you I would love to do an explore with and wild camp. I camped in the forest last year and it was a great experience, but it was on a wild campsite, you can see it on the channel. I am planning to do the South Downs way, so maybe then? Keep up with the great content
Me too this was one of my favourite walks! Oh I will have a look, I’d be happy to go to a wild campsite to practice camping with MIss Nancy before we really hit the wild! That sounds great, thank you we will try
Having found your channel, subscribed and all that Jazz, I am working my way through from the beginning and the difficult stile. Prefer them without Chris, I hope you do too. Great advice RE the double bagged hand warmer.
Welcome aboard! Oh god the double bagged hand warmer I forgot that 😂 used one the other day actually 🤭
