  • Another fabulous day down at the annual Whitby Steam Punk Festival, in glorious summer sunshine. After parking at the Park and Ride, I got off the bus at the Whitby Pavilion and met some wonderful people, as well as looking at all the stalls on two sperate floors. I watch the fantastic Ravens Morris dancing and singing outside the pavilion, bringing their own unique take on Morris dancing before heading to the harbour area, taking the 199 steps up to the church, Whitby Abbey and then treat myself to a 'sit in' at my favourite Whitby fish n chips shop - Mr Chips! A dam fine day out, with wonderful company, in a stunning North Yorkshire setting.

    I hope Mrs Metalman is feeling better soon. A great look around Whitby Steampunk Festival, Alan. We're big fans of Mr Chips too, definitely the best shop in town.

    Whitby Steam Punk Festival in summer sounds like an amazing experience! Your video captures the essence of the festival perfectly, from the lively Morris dancing to the charming stalls and scenic views of Whitby Abbey. It’s great to see such a vibrant event in a beautiful North Yorkshire setting. Thanks for sharing this day out with us!

    Hi Alan First of all, I like this music suitable for this big festival. A great idea to visit the festival in this hot summer season. Very popular and lots of stands, it's cheerful, singing, great atmosphere. I would like to enjoy myself there eating fries with a good beer. Pleasant ambience. Great company, cheers, Zac

    Hi Alan, everyone looked absolutely fabulous - including your good self 😎 I loved the backdrop of the gothic graveyard and the pretty harbour. Whitby is the perfect place to host the awesome Steam Punk Festival. The singing and dancing were fun and the event had an amazing vibe. The background music you chose was great. Thanks for showing us around with such style. We hope Mrs Metalman gets better soon ❤

    • @AlanMETALMAN
      @AlanMETALMAN  Місяць тому +1

The monkey with Mr and Mrs draper was a work of art! Ooh Mr chips made our tummies rumble, looked delicious 😋. What a fantastic event, would make a great weekend away. Thanks for the tour!

As well as this one and the Goth festivals they are going to start a Pirate Festival the last weekend in August so that should be fun too, so I will be heading there for that one as well. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan.

    Another awesome trip to the festival. People sure do play and wear their parts well. Fun to see. Awesome that you stop and talk with some of them too. I saw a Jack Sparrow look alike in the crowd. Pretty cool. Kristy would love coming here. This is too similar to Halloween with all the outfits and costumes. Awesome stuff. Hope all is well. Oh, the fish n chips looked amazing btw. Have a wonderful day.

    Hi Alan, love the sound of the seagulls 😃 Sorry to hear about Mrs M, hope she is better now 🙏 I do love the look of Whitby and must visit once day. Everyone seemed so friendly at this festival that you spoke to especially Mr and Mrs Draper and cute friend, and the costumes were amazing that everyone had on. The streets and shops are so lovely, lots of steps going up there though 😃 The abbey and church are stunning and those gravestones so atmospheric. That nun story was really funny 😄👏 The views looking down to the coast are so beautiful and that harbour is stunning. Fabulous Morris dancers and people and the fish and chips looked delicious. Whitby is the perfect place to host this festival. This was really good to watch 👍~ Anna

    • @AlanMETALMAN
      @AlanMETALMAN  Місяць тому

      Yes, she has a chest infection, so really disappointed she is stuck indoors with her feet up, something she hates.

    Fun festival Alan! Love seeing all the costumes and clothing! People of all ages are having a grand time! It’s interesting to see how people express Steam Punk- including Pirates! I wonder if some of the people cross-over and steam punk is their life style? Anyway, it’s lots of fun- great music and food too. Whitby is an awesome location- I remember when you went to the Goth Festival too! Yum, Fish and Chips! Hi to Mrs. M, Cheers! ⭐⭐ Jen

    We keep saying we need to come to one of the festivals at Whitby, they look amazing and so friendly 😊
    Think next time we visit Whitby we will park at the park and ride (Thanks for the tip)
    What amazing costumes.
    Hope Mrs M enjoyed her fudge you took back for her
    We have to carry Boo up the 199 so no running for us up there like Nick and Jill do. We walk up too.
    You got some great footage with getting there early.
    The Ravens Morris group were great 😊
    Those fish and chips looked delicious.
    We really enjoyed this
    Hope you're enjoying this lovely weather ☀️

    Hats? jewelry? dresses? etc..
    aweee, it could have been fantastic lunch with Mrs. Metalman
    Fewer PPL on the streets, I could see some landmark, statutes, and beautiful calm water.

    Young and fit!? Yikes. Just watching you on the big telly now. Well done on the 199, we skipped it on this occasion, those steam punkers never seem to venture up to the Abbey! Great info about the weekends and park and ride. I’ll have nun of that, what mean friends! Ah yes, you’re right about the Goths they love the Abbey. Got some great shots that early Alan. So many pirates. Quite possibly more than steam punks! They are taking over! Yes Mr Chips is the best in Whitby although we are looking forward to Wendy’s opening up in the old Papas place. Amazing shots of the empty streets, forget about a ghost tour this is a ghost town! Good old bridge ender. Ravens Morris, they are great. Gary and June, oh no we missed them. Yay you got the South Shields and Fort William Dragon lot! Hey up, it’s Mr Chips time. Great value. Nice visit to Tate Pier. Ah what an amazing video and no parking ticket! 👍

    • @AlanMETALMAN
      @AlanMETALMAN  Місяць тому

      I was taking to the bus driver and he said the park and ride would be available for the Goth weekend but the last bus back out be at 16.45, so maybe worth a though for parking (free) and a couple of quid for a return ticket. I met some wonderful people and the ones I talked to that watched my channel all said they watched yours too, so such a shame you did not bump into them all. To be honest that is the first time I have even say in Mr Chips and it was really nice inside with a couple of real friendly lasses too, a very pleasant experience I must try again and hopefully with Mrs Metalman next time too. I loved Ravens Morris, such a friendly bunch and very entertaining as well. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

    Alan, thanks for sharing the video. Whitby is a beautiful city with magnificent architecture and the seaside. The 199 steps is quite a workout. The costumes were great but I’m not familiar with a steam punk festival but it looked like a fun day. Hope Mrs Metalman is feeling better. The music/dance team were very good. How far do you live from Whitby?

    • @AlanMETALMAN
      @AlanMETALMAN  Місяць тому +1

      It is just over an hours drive for me to get to Whitby, so it is a place we visit quite a lot, especially mid week, out of school holidays when it is a lot quieter. Steam Punk started in the 1970s in the UK but its inspirations go back to 9th century Victorian times. Its always a fun festival and one I always look forward too. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan
