    Oo I’ve not been here since I was a kid. We loved travelling with you. You guys eat well!!eating into beer time - brilliant! Yep it’s me on the maps too!! Oh wow not been there since I was 11!! We need to visit here, it’s stunning and I am remembering so much. Slaw so drew the massive member on the beach! Pouisson and chips - amazing! Looks delish. Absolutely stunning drone work guys. We love doggo cam! Great bbq. You guys live the van life so well. Cheers 🍻

    Mont-saint-michel was breathtakingly stunning! Slaw's drone footage was, yet again, exceptional. Slaw was certainly full of beans jumping out of Helga on 'the next day'😂 and Mrs Slaw, you looked beautiful in your summer dress. I did chuckle thinking of Slaw being harpooned on the beach....touchè indeed Mrs Slaw😂 Sending hugs to the adorable Jessie and Billy 🐶🐶 x

    Been all over Europe in a motorhome but my heart always belongs to France, its a country with it all, mountains, lakes, beaches and forests, it is the ideal motorhome campervan country - they really cater for the mobile traveller, it may not have the some of the gorgeous scenery of the like of Norway or Switzerland but they lack the other things France has that captures your heart - enjoy the Holiday Mr & Mrs Slaw

    • @TheSlawsAdventures
      @TheSlawsAdventures  Рік тому +1

      Hi Paul.
      Yes if you turn up the fan it will get hotter so should sizzle. Maybe not as much as a normal charcoal barbecue as you are using less charcoal. With mine I just cook steady away. If you put things on the plate in the middle they tend to sizzle.
