I Spent 10 Days in England for the First Time and I Didn't Expect This!!

- Опубліковано 25 чер 2024
- I wanted to visit England for some time now. And I kept seeing ads about England - hearing people talk about England - I'm like England is calling to me. Now is the time to go. From the bustling streets of London to the area of outstanding natural beauty of the countryside, this was a rollercoaster of memorable experiences. Each of the cities have so much to offer, and here's what happened during my time in the largest country in the United Kingdom.

You pass on the left on an escalator because you hold the handrail with your right hand the dominant hand 98% of the time so stationary people are safer even if less able
A word of advice, don't come to the UK in April if you don't want rain. LOL. April showers bring forth May flowers! Spring in the UK is March, April, May. It's often wet and windy, or just extremely changeable/unpredictable.
What sort of weather do you expect when you travel at the very beginning of spring, yes it rains a lot just like northern states in the US. On the other hand summer temp's can often go into the 30s centigrade especially in the south.
@@doommonger7784it actually looks more like winter, uploaded in early spring. Look at the trees.
Bizarre, as usual, like many tourists, you did not visit the east, called 'Anglia' where the Angles settled, the original Germanic settlers on the Island and the place where England evolved from and where it got its name from ( even though Germanic settlers were a mix of Jute, Frisian, Saxon, Franks, etc. The counties, Norfolk and Suffolk, where that Kingdom, the borders have hardly changed in 1000 years. The city is Norwich. Incredible to miss this. Missed out on that.
Discovering the last bus is at 5:30 pm just after its gone past is part of the authentic UK travel experience.
Yes! It makes for all the adventure!! Super!!! haha 😂
Moving to the West of England from London, that was a culture shock. To be fair, there are buses up until past 10pm here, but not the route I wanted to use! And I have done Cheltenham to Bourton on the Water by bus.
Too true
Buses run all night. Even in the sticks Why 5.30pm?
@@RobDeMannNext time, have a tent and sleeping bag and a little pot & stove.Thatll make it a real adventure.Just watch out for werewolfs.
No Robert, you weren't being racist. It's called banter, we appreciate it here in the UK and long may it reign. Well done you👍
WHEW! Sometimes people can't take banter so I was definitely second guessing on that. Now talking about the weather and fish n chips on the other hand... 😂
@@RobDeMann True. Some people can't take the banter. We call them melts! You done good.
@@RobDeMann oh the weather can be dreary for sure but lovely in the summer and tbh it did look like shit fish n chips but the dish itself is so good!
Why did you say that? What was racist about trying out a regional accent? Did you say it because you wanted to ward off any troll attacks on your speech? Sad that we have to monitor every word- I think the ‘sound of silence’ is upon us😊
He wasn’t in the UK. He was in England and that tells me you’re not British as you don’t even know what Country he was in.
You wouldn't believe the difference in summer, still got the rain of course but the whole country becomes a blaze of a hundred shades of green
Ahh, BEAUTIFUL!!!
And don't forget the one day where its 40⁰c for litterally no reason
@@piercecowley255my sister was on a coach trip from the west country to Norfolk when that happened and some absolutely stupid bint of a woman demanded that all the windows were shut. And get this... the driver actually gave in.
@@piercecowley255 I remember, that was the day when we had very hot rain.
You may think of England as being a bit on the 'wet' side but apparently, if you commute to work everyday to work on foot, you will only get rained on 17 times in that year.
You should have come in Summer. That's when the country comes alive, it's nice and hot, and everything is so green and lush.
Yes I would love to see the cities in the summer! Thanks for watching Keighlan!! Especially the Cotswolds and Canterbury would look lush
March winds and April showers, bring forth May flowers! Old English adage. We love it!!!
Not quite. last year was overcast and trash 75% of the summer
@lukeempty3386 well, yes. But on the occasion we do get a summer, they can be really nice.
@@keighlancoe5933 For sure
Glad you didn't just stay in London, we are a diverse little country, hope you enjoyed it ❤🇬🇧
Yes! It was a blasttt 💥 Thanks for watching!!
Lol
Absolutely, but just a shame you didn’t visit some more of the countryside. The Lake District, Northumberland, The West Country, Norfolk, The Peak District and more. However, a very busy visit in which you packed a lot! Good video.
Lots of white people when you get out London!
what a horrible ignorant racist comment@@alanmawson9601
Well done mate - we have had the wettest 8 months on record and I can say that never mind the tourists, the locals are pretty sick of the flaming wet stuff! But you definitely showed some true grit getting around! 😄
Thanks Gael! Yes I gotta go all in, can’t waste no time now on some silly rain!! 🤣
We’re all fed up with it but it keeps our land ‘green and pleasant’. Seeing it from the air makes one more grateful for the rain.
The UK weather is never inappropriate...ONLY THE CLOTHING WORN! 🙂
True words spoken!
What a fantastically motivated trip, packing in so much bang for one's Bucks. Well done you !
Thanks you! Appreciate the love, cheers!
What a thorough video for only 30 minutes. Don't worry about the clouds, it's authentic. It reflects the reality of a pretty country with some of the coldest temperatures in all of Europe and the resilience and good nature of the people.
Thank you! Appreciate you watching man
England doesn't have the coldest temperatures in Europe! We hardly ever even get a frost in the south anyway...! It's nearly always cloudy though. Alas.
@@geoffreystephen6840 I looked at a heat map for overall temps. I think the sea makes it colder.
The best fish and chips are to be found at the coast, add lots of salt and malt vinegar for exra flavour. Buy them from a "chip shop" or "chippie" for fresh fish, pubs and restaurants usually don't have the freshest fish.
Thanks for the tips! Appreciate you watching!!
As a Yorkshire lass, I would say the north does it best. Especially, Bryan's fish and chips, Headingley, Leeds! Delicious. Thanks!
And get curry sauce or tartar sauce man god damn
@@tokenspirit6140 no no no lol up north they tend to have haddock and other fish. down south we prefer cod
@@RobDeMann We used to go on weekend trips to Uk , from my country. Just for some real British fish and chips! Until we got it in my country too. It`s our all time favourite food. The best fish and chips I`ve ever had though, was in Brighton. It`s always best by the sea. 😀
You should come back again in summer and visit Snowdonia, Cardiff, Brecon, Tenby, Keswick, Ambleside, Edinburgh, Isle of Wight. The cities are great cultural centres but the countryside is best. Great trip.
Ah, thanks for the recommendations! Appreciate you watching, Darren!!
Yes come back and visit our country side villages. I live in the newforest and donkeys, ponies and cattle wonder round free.its lovely,nice walks through the forest also.😊
I live right close to Snowdonia . Biggest mountain in Wales. Plus used that location film some scenes for movies such willow and dragon slayer it does have movie history
If going to the Isle of Wight don't forget Portsmouth , hom of the Royal navy with HMS Victory , HMS Warrior and the Mary Rose all historic ships. from different periods.
If you visit Snowdonia make sure to call into Shrewsbury a beautiful medieval town. Lots of snickers to wander down 😊
Well done, you have seen more of England in 10 days than most English people, great video. Keep it up.
Appreciate the love David! Thank you very much for watching, cheers!! 🍻
I agree. Well done to see so much and so many different places in our wonderfully varied country. Come again some day . Try Scotland too , and Wales. When in Stratford on Avon did you not notice the Royal Shakespeare Theatre by the river?
Yes wish we could have access to BritRail!
Easily the best American vlog of England I've seen on UA-cam... lovely filming, an honest narrative and such a great example of using our public transport system to explore the country despite the wetter than normal wet winter we have had this year! A pity you had to miss the magic that's spring in England but hey, very well done!
Appreciate your kind words Roger! Yes I aim to be honest with my narrative, it's my opinion. I was there right in the beginning of Spring but will have to make a trip there another time. Thanks for watching!! Cheers
Very well put together !
Ooo, I don't know. Sometimes I think they should stay on their side of the Atlantic!
"The rain is a persistent bugger" You've clearly got the hang of British English when you can use the correct swear word in a phrase like that.
THE RAIN IS A PERSISTENT BUGGER!!! Another swear phrase to add to my collection. Thanks for watching David!!
@@RobDeMann be aware that such language is not to be used in front of prospective employers, clients, or in-laws. much disapproval may ensue
You may think of England as being a bit on the 'wet' side but apparently, if you commute to work everyday to work on foot, you will only get rained on 17 times in that year.
Though other places in Europe, like Slovenia, have a higher average rainfall. Portugal has as much rain as much of England but the north west has the highest rainfall.
@@ramadamming8498 Can confirm that Lancashire is the wettest county, no matter what those Cumbrians say!
Have to laugh when the met office declare "droughts" after 5 days of dryness. What about the other 360 days?!
One of the best tourist videos of my country I have ever seen. I am now 89 next month and have lived in the far South West of England for the last 40 years. I see many changes as you go around the towns and cities that I knew, a lot more art displayed these days which is good.
Looking at the trees in your photos it's winter or just before spring - it rains here in winter and particularly spring. Rains summer too but not quite so bad and it's warmer. It is what makes our green and pleasant land. Funny though, first two places were where I lived when young, Windsor and Oxford. Bath I know and Bristol is an hour up the road from where I now live. I lived for some years in London where I met my husband 54 years ago. I would like to say you chose some very good places to go to such as Canterbury and Cotswolds, all beautiful places. Liverpool is fun, loved the football. Only went there once because I wanted to take the ferry on the Mersey. I’m glad you enjoyed your visit, I enjoyed your video as I can no longer travel, old age has got me in it’s tentacles. I will look out for further videos from you, thanks for coming to see us.
I agree...Great video.. its nice to see how others see our country...❤
This is so wholesome Julie! Thanks for sharing - loved reading your experiences. Greatly appreciate you watching and observing the many changes around the towns and cities you've visited. Wonderful to have you - cheers!!
I agree it was a good video to show English cities x
I went to London in October several years ago. I actually like the cold weather. I don't like the heat, especially when there's no air conditioning. I understand that a lot of buildings in the UK don't have air conditioning, so I think I would have found it uncomfortable to visit in summer.
@@BomberFletch31 I don't like air conditioning in shops, so cold. Very hot weather is still rare in UK and if it does come it doesn’t last for long. Rain and low pressure is what it is mostly like, which is bad for an old lady with arthritis like me. This year it has rained and rained but if you look around the world it seems to have been the same in many countries. Floods everywhere.
The Brits don't help themselves by perpetuating the myth that it's always raining. Some parts of the UK are indeed very wet but that is the west and North west because of the prevailing wind off the Atlantic. However London and other places in the south east England are drier than many European and US cities. I worked in Munich for a couple of years and it's far wetter than south east England. I went to the US a few years back and my wife said to a Boston local that its always raining in the UK. Boston MA has 20 inches more rain annually than the city we live in in south east England. It is however very cloudy in the UK which I think may be another factor in this misconception.
Thank you for clarifying this David! Much appreciated.
Essex has the same annual rainfall as Morocco! You get a lot of cloud at times. However this winter and spring has been and still is VERY wet, we are all fed up with it!
So sorry you had a poor example of fish and chips. They can be wonderful if the fish is very fresh, good quality potatoes are used and you put on plenty of salt, malt [ or pickled onion ] vinegar and tomato ketchup.
This is true but we don't get heavy rain that often. The rain is light but spread over more days of the year. However... I do live in the North West and it is definitely wetter!
I live in Manchester you are correct, the north-west is nearly always wet.
It's true, I lived in SE England for 10 years and I didn't find it particularly wet at all, lnfact summer from May to Sep is perfect.
I've lived in London for over 60 years, and my advice to anybody coming to England, is to come in the summer time, not when the place is at its most depressing.
Those clouds were depressing me and I live here.
That is a great idea! Unfortunately this was the time I was available but I had a super time regardless. Thank you for watching Lilly!!
@@RobDeMann when its 100f in London during summer its the best place in the world, nothing like going around London and day drinking in the hot English summer heat.
This - times 10,000
Amazing you got so much done in such a short time! Glad you had fun, but sorry the weather was so unkind - now you see why we go on about it all the time!
We go on about it all the time - as you say. Because we can go on about it all the time. No point in talking about the weather in Hot Spain or Sunny California.
You`ve hit the nail on its head.
Cheers Charlie! Thanks for watching 🍻
You must have slept for a week on your return home. very much a whistle stop tour 🌧️ hope you found most of us hospitable 🤞🏻 London looks beautiful at night
@@dawnsheard4786 actually I had to go straight to work the following day; didnt get a good nights rest days later 🥺. The people were lovely! Thanks for watching
Did you find it expensive compared with USA?
It's strange but you do know that getting wet doesn't make you ill or for that matter, make you dissolve. Imagine all those kids getting ill every single day, all day, because we played Football, proper Football, with our feet, in the rain!
A tip for anyone visiting England. If you are going to "Visit" as many Villages, Towns, Cities, in a day as possible and only look at the more famous attributes on show, just so that you can say "Been there, DONE that" and not "know" the places that you "Hit", is rather akin to trying to hit on as many women as possible in 10 days! You don't get to "Know" them, you don't get the vibe, you don't get the full ambiance, only fleeting glimpses, fleeting memories and, maybe, remember the names of some of the best sights on offer! !
Rain don't stop no fellow traveler! Appreciate this.
Of course that is true but for someone who is only here for a short time , they will have a better idea of the country if they visit many places and not just thde basic tourist centres. But even such places on the tourist route like Stratford or York wil give a better idea of the country that stopping in London all the time.
Best comment here. This guy is a dork, as are many of the commenters. He knew Nothing when he came and he left still knowing Nothing.
You spent your 10 days wisely, excellent work, come back for more soon!
Thank you!! Appreciate you watching, cheers!!
@@RobDeMann Yeah, props for getting around so much. Dover and Folkstone aren't anything to write home about. It's the arse end of Kent, as you seemed to discover :) It's all adventures though.... well done for making it happen.
Dover Castle is great if you like that kind of thing.
It’s a pity that you didn’t get to see the war time defence tunnels hidden in the white cliffs of Dover 😮
You should come also at Christmas time, London and other cities have so many amazing Christmas lights and decorations
The side of the escalator/side of the road thing isn't a contradiction. For one thing, you could say, "On the road we move forward on the left, whereas on the escalator we move forward on the left," and the contradiction disappears. But in any case, the reason is the same one: the predominance of right-handedness. In medieval times people passed each other on the road on the left-hand side so that their right hand could draw a sword should they need to, which is the origin of driving on the left-hand side. and when it comes to escalators, people who need to hold on to the handrail will mostly want to do that with their right hand.
Ah ok, thanks for explaining Mark!
Glad I checked the comments first as I was going to post the same thing 😀
You beat me to it.
I have read that it was Napoleon who change from driving ( a carriage in those days or a troop of cavalry)) on the left to on the right just to be different, and all of Europoe followed as France had invaded most of western Europe anyway. . We Brits did not. We stuck to the old ways.
You did absolutely the right thing Robert. There is *far* more to England than just London, interesting as it is. Places like York and Bath are also steeped in centuries of history and heritage. History is everywhere in England Robert. Not far from me, there is a private school in a small town on the fringe of the Yorkshire Dales. It recently celebrated it's 500th year... Leeds is England's second largest financial hub after London.... It's great you enjoyed your visit Robert. Feel free to come again.....
Appreciate the information Brian! Thank you for watching!!
Thank you for showing some of my home countries most beautiful bits. I'm glad you had a good time, thank you for sharing it with us.
Always a pleasure! Thanks for watching, cheers!!
Fabulous trip covering many of the places I would recommend a first timer in England to see. The fact you did it in ten days is pretty amazing. Excellent narration too; gentle, light-hearted and informative. Duly subscribed. ( from London)😉😉
HAHA LOVE THIS! Appreciate you watching man, cheers!! 🍻
It’s been the wettest winter since the early 1800s apparently. Never known anything like it. But you did come in winter, so it was always going to be grey and wet at times Mr!
True true haha. Thanks for watching Andy! Appreciate it!!
Hasn’t it always been the wettest since the 1800’s!
I'm not quite sure why so many come here out of season, when persistent rain is more likely.
@@RevStickleback Maybe it's cheaper? (Certainly accomodation is likely to be.)
As a real American native American Choctaw nation i moved her at the age of 13 to live with my Welsh dad i love the UK great history and culture and great people i had to learn how to use serten slang 😂 and it was an eye opener 😂😂
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing Carl
I am so glad I stumbled across this video. I cannot believe you managed to get so much done in just ten days. You saw so many places. I love London, quite an admission for a northerner from Durham) but I've lived in Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester too so it was great to see you've visited those places not so many tourists venture to. You can with all honesty now say you know England so much better than the average American visitor. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Appreciate the love Barry! I still have much to know about England haha. Another time for sure. Thank you for watching, cheers!!
Holy SH*T: I didn't realise that I just watched a near 35 minute video! And I enjoyed every minute.
Holy crap: no way! That's super. Appreciate you!!
What are you, a gnat? Who cannot watch 35 minutes?
This is wonderful to read such positive remarks about UK. I was born in Margate Kent near Canterbury in 1947. Attended college in Canterbury. UK has a lot of history and I love just travelling over the UK. I now reside in South Wales. Thanks for your input. You did well.
Appreciate the love man! Thank you for watching!!
Glad you had a great time. Lots of exciting places to visit
Yes it was an epic time! Thanks for watching Richard!!
You might have noticed that the trains also run on the left, but on rivers/waterways/canals they navigate on the right.
Thanks for pointing that out John!
Unfortunately we have had an unusual amount of rain this year, it hasn't stopped!! Glad you enjoyed our beautiful country.
Beautiful indeed innit haha! Appreciate this, thank you for watching!!
Cracking vid, really enjoyed it, thank you.
Cracking, innit! Thank you.
As for the escalators, I always assumed it was because most people are right handed so it is natural to hold on with your right hand thus leaving the left side for passing
Makes sense, thanks for watching Tracey!
Manchester United vs Liverpool is always the biggest game on the calendar.
And a great game at that!
To scousers or Mancs - no-one else!
The black cabs are not much more expensive but what sets them aside is they are safe. They legally have to take you a to b with no detour to c and for women they have been properly vetted. Don’t use Uber.
Hmm, maybe the pricing depends on where I'm going and per city? Ubers were relatively affordable and I'm been used to Ubers or rideshare apps coming from the states (don't really use taxis back home), so I was more comfortable sticking with what I was used to.
@@RobDeMann uber is on the verge of being banned AGAIN in London for really bad practices.. Black taxi cabs are much safer
black cabs are extortionate and that have to take you anywhere is a rule they ignore, try getting one to take you deep into south London no chance getting them to go to the Elephant used to be a bloody hassle
Great video mate. I now live in China but grew up close to that little coastal village you ended up stranded in, St Margaret’s Bay! So pleased someone picked you up and dropped you at Martin Mill station. Shame you didn’t make it to Sandwich, just three stops from there but there’s always next time. Never get anxious, embrace those moments of the unexpected, priceless ❤
Haha yes that was definitely a moment indeed! Thank you for watching mate!!
My boy finally made it!!! Keep going strong my boy
WE GOT THIS MY DUDE!! 👏
Thank you. A very interesting tour and experiences . Totally in awe about how much you managed to cram in! Very impressive. Very glad you enjoyed the trip.
Haha I try to go hardcore! Appreciate the love. Thank you for watching Angela!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this ,your enthusiasm and energy and your humour , come back soon and do another, maybe next time when it's sunny .Cheers mate !
Appreciate the love Paul! I try my best haha. Thank you for watching
I love our little country. It’s so diverse. I know the weather can sometimes suck but March is not the best time to visit.
Thank you for making the effort to get out of London.
I’m a Yorkshire lass. Live in The Dales, work in Leeds and visit York frequently. It’s one of my favourite cities
Come back anytime x
I love England too! Yep, totally understand about the weather haha. Each of the cities were great, I had to have the full experience as possible. Thanks for watching, cheers 🍻
I totally enjoyed watching your England tour! Thanks!
Thank you Dee!
Superb! An excellently photographed tour of England, Thank you!
Appreciate the love! Thank you for watching Michael
This winter and early spring has brought much higher rainful than usual... I would suggest late spring and summer for warmer, sunnier days when the trees have leaves, flowers everywhere and a much nicer time to visit but well done all packing as much as you did in!
Yes for sure! This was the time I was able to go but I'm pumped out to visit again another time. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Great video!
Cheers Tom! 🍻 Thanks for watching!!
Great work you covered so much in a short time.
Appreciate the love Kenneth! Thanks for watching!!
Glad to see you chose not just London to visit
That was a great travelogue. You managed todo so much in the time.
Appreciate the love Chris! Yes I go all in on my travels haha. Thanks for watching, cheers!!
You did well, you saw a lot of England.
Your travel log was great, a great mix of you speaking, natural sounds, text explaining some scenes. It was well paced.
Appreciate the love John! Thanks for watching!!
Legit dope. Go Jia!🎉
GOOOO JIA!!
Jia Pet
Woo what video ❤ and so much Beautiful full place ❤
Appreciate the love, thanks for watching!!
Bro you are so lucky going to the United Liverpool game... glad you enjoyed your time here!
Lucky indeed! Thank you for watching!!
we love our weather
we love our weather. It is the most interesting in the world.
Weather! Hurrah hurrah! Weather don't stop no man from enjoying his lovely time in England!
What an absolute classic match to have been live for!!
An absolutely classic match indeed!
thanks for enjoying our country.respect
Appreciate the love! Thank you for watching
So sorry about the weather, it has been an abnormally wet winter/spring. There has been widespread flooding all over the country. It can always be a potential problem in this country but has been especially bad over the last few months. Apparently its been the 8th wettest winter on record!
Shame you didn’t like the fish and chips. Some places do them better than others, they always need to be well seasoned with salt and vinegar! And my choice is to accompany them with a pickled onion and a wally (a dill pickle).
Ahh I figured the rainy weather was a normal thing in England. And thanks for the tips for the fish n chips! I’ll try that out and perhaps I’ll tolerate them better haha
I’ve never seen anyone do a trip round England and go back to London every night. Usually people book a hotel room in the area they are visiting. But it seemed to work quite well. Great video.
I preferred to have a place I know I can go back to every night. In addition I brought a lot of stuff so it would have been difficult to carry everything to every city I go to. Less headaches for me. Appreciate the love! Thanks for watching!!
Nice tour....glad you enjoyed it.
Enjoyed it I did! Thank you for watching!!
Great video! My family is from England, and I went to school there for two years, but you saw more of England in 10 days than I have in my lifetime. 🙂
Appreciate you! Thank you for watching
I live in Shropshire and I enjoyed watching to get an American’s perspective. Yes the weather this spring has been pants! Sorry about that but I am glad to hear you enjoyed your trip despite this. There’s so much more too see, come back soon, you are welcome! Best wishes from England!
Appreciate the love! Thank you for watching Alison, cheers!!
The traffic lights are the same as the US for stopping - green, yellow, red. The difference comes for going - red, red and yellow together, green, whereas in the US it goes straight from red to green. Didn't want people coming to the UK thinking that if they see a yellow light it means get ready to go when, on it's own, it means the exact opposite. And those white cliffs at St Margarets Bay don't really do justice to the actual white cliffs of Dover. If you want to experience them close up, there are walks along the top of them, giving you good views across the English Channel.
Appreciate the explanation! And yes good point about Dover - it was last minute so not very well planned as you saw haha. Thank you for watching
Looks like some very interesting places and i would think that it must be amazing with the sun shining.
Yay! Soo cool you came to my home city of Bristol ❤
BRISTOL IS THE VIBE!!! Loved my time there. Thank you for watching!!
When walking as a pedestrian on a road you should walk opposite side to driving so you can see the oncoming cars and whether they’re going to hit you or not
Im amazed you went to so many places, well done and hope you return to see other beautiful and historical places.
Thank you for the love! Appreciate you
Bristolian here, and lover of D&B. Thanks for recognising that, the city oozes with creativity and a little rebellion. :) thanks for the kind words. Great video ! UTD fan also, that was a great game to just wander into holy shit nice one xD
Haha England was super! Thank you for watching
One of the best videos i have seen promoting my country. You covered so much. Well done.
Thank you Michele!
It's commendable that you travelled to so many cities. One of the best travel videos of England by a tourist. If you want spicy food in the UK go for a curry; we love curry.
Appreciate the feedback Jason! Yes the curry is amazing, I love it too growing up haha. Thanks for watching!!
I love how well you used your time, I loved that you went to a football match! Fish n chips like others have said are better at the cosat, the jumps straight out of sea and onto your plate. I also times my Yorkshire puddings to your video 😂.
Appreciate the love! Puddings for everyone!!
Thank you for YT algorithm for bring me here!! Thank you for showing us our lovely country
HURRAH HURRAH! YT algorithm doing its magic. Thank you for watching Gregory!
lots more to see when you travel out of London
WIndsor Castle is the oldest inhabited castle in the world!
Indeed!
@@RobDeMann It sure is!
But sadly not by Queen Elizabeth !!, as she very sadly died a couple years ago...
@@Yickbob Yes I know. I was in London and Windsor watching it.
Glad you came to Leeds…. We have lots of beautiful countryside around us too. Glad you enjoyed your trip, Shame about the weather.
All good! Summer is where it's at! Appreciate it, thanks for watching Tasha!!
Ah, ENGLAND!!!!! the most beautiful, exciting country. I love everything about this country.
England is the best Katalin!
Great video
Thanks
Thank you Chris!
"The weather in England kind of sucks"
It looked like you where here in winter based on what people were wearing and you know, none of the trees having leaves on them.
You're not kidding.....grey windy and miserable most of the time and it's getting worse with a changing climate.
We have the best climate , but the worst weather! Never too hot nor too cold
March .Plenty of daffodils and spring flowers .
And ,by the way ,the lush green of the UK is often noticed .
That's because of the rain ,otherwise we would be like Arizona
It does seem that the winters are getting milder but wetter.
@@trickygoose2 Windier too...we never used to have this many storms or floods.
.
The reason for on an escalator you pass on the left is so the stationery people can hold the rail with their right-hand of course
really great video i loved your enthusiasm
Appreciate the love Jammy! Thank you for watching
Wonderful video, beautifully shot, you did give very good coverage of many different cities and countryside on your visit. You travelled through a good bit of England and only got lost once. It was nice that you met some locals - chatting with the grannies at a bus stop, and that very kind motorist who gave you a lift. Pity about the rain, but come again another time and make another video for us to enjoy!
For sure Janette! Appreciate the lovely feedback. Thank you so much for watching. More in store for my travels!
You chose the worst place for fish and chips. Biggest red flag is that they refill Heinz bottles with cheap cash and carry crap.
Robert you are a good egg, well done you.
Good egg haha! Appreciate you watching thanks!!
This video is amazing i really enjoyed watching it lots of variety 😊
Thank you so much for watching!! Cheers
Some of the best travel footage I have ever seen! Fabulous! 🙂
Thank you Martin! Fabulous indeed
This from the Met Office... "The UK experienced 55% more rainfall than an average April, with 111.4mm." falling across the month, making it the sixth wettest April in the series and the wettest April since 2012.
Many areas recorded more than their long-term average monthly rainfall, with Scotland experiencing its fourth wettest April in a series which started in 1836. It saw 148.9mm of rainfall across the month - more than 60% of its average and the wettest April since 1947."
Thank you for a different perspective on my country. And Folkestone (pronounced Foke-stun) my nearest town for shopping...
Glad you had a good time mate. 💜☮️
Appreciate it this information! Unfortunate to hear but the rain was really no bother - had a super time in England. Thank you for watching

Glad you liked my home town Bath. We had a very wet spring this year so you've been particularly unlucky I'm afraid.
I had a lovely "bath" in Bath! Appreciate the love, thank you for watching!!
Thank you for visiting our Island and filming it so well. Cheers. 👍
Thank you for watching! Cheers 🍻
I’m glad you visited York, my hometown. A beautiful, historic place.
Beautiful historic place indeed! Thank you for watching Pete
Great video I'm from Leeds lovely weather as usual 😂
Haha thanks for watching Joel! Amazing weather as usual 🤣. Cheers mate
We always say St Patrick's Day in the UK and in Ireland, not St Paddy's. In fact the term Paddy is sometimes regarded as an abusive term when used towards Irish people. My grandad was Irish and would not have liked to hear anyone refer to the day as anything other than St Patrick's Day,
Ahh I understand!! I was not aware of that so apologies. Thanks for the clarification
Oh ffs, turn off the offense button. This is all we hear these days, someone forever offended and playing the oppression olympics. Even the Irish don't get offended at that. My mum's Irish and I get called plastic paddy by real Irish people and I laugh, not one bit offended by that, it's called banter. Grow a pair and stop being a little triggered pest.
Rubbish !
Plenty of people say
"Paddy's Day," and it's no longer thought of as a derogatory term.
If he took notice of all the woke BS that has ruined our country he would to scared to open his mouth !
@@RobDeMann
Nice video Robert, I'm glad you enjoyed Bristol. Just outside of Bristol is a beautiful village set in a deep gorge. It's called
"Cheddar gorge" check out some videos on it.there are some reactors videos on it as well
@@matt01506 oh yh that's where the cheese is from
Awesome❤🎉
Awesome!!
A very good video so glad you enjoyed our country and boy did you see a lot in such a short time.
Appreciate the love! Thank you for watching
Awesome video...cannot believe how much you did and the planning...hope you enjoyed England, now all you need to do is the Lakes, Devon and Cornwall and of course Wales, Scotland and Ireland ...you must be knackered...just one point our summers get hotter and hotter every year...😂
Cheers mate!! Yeahh I could have done Edinburgh but that’s for another time. DEVON & The Lakes were my spots but they were just too far from my itinerary 😞
You've seen more of the UK than the average Brit. Kudos.
Appreciate the love Dean, thank you!
That was wonderful Robert. I loved seeing your perspective of our country and the photography was amazing. We do have a nice country, don't we! 😉
Appreciate you! Beautiful country, innit haha
