    You were right first time, it IS pronounced "doomsday". To paraphrase Terry Pratchett, it was written before they invented spelling! 😁

    • @pompmag
      @pompmag 6 років тому +19

      It also actually means Dooms-day. It was first census of England and the English people thought that the King/central government knowing that much about them would be the same as the biblical end of days: the day of doom or 'Doomsday'.
      It also recorded the wealth of every community and noble to prevent tax-dodging which may also have been a factor in how the people named it!

      I agree with Ann. Massive lack of public land for parks. That's why you have to trapse through private land.

    • @TheEulerID
      @TheEulerID 6 років тому +7

      No. In the USA there isn't the same historic right of way system once you leave the highways. There are lots of parks, but you won't find public rights of way across private farmland. However, what the USA does have is a huge amount of public land and national and state parks.
      The system of public footpaths in England and Wales (Scotland is different) are just routes which were customarily used by local people to get from place to place and then the morphed into historical rights of way in law. Many, of course, became public highways but other remain footpaths bridlepaths or other rights of way. The system of land ownership in the USA came about much faster and didn't have those centuries, or even millennia of historical usage.

    It's always interesting to see your own country from someone else's perspective. I never really thought, for instance, about how lucky we are to have public footpaths! I use them all the time but definitely take them for granted. Thanks for making me look at my every day life with fresh eyes and a bit more appreciation! Hope you enjoyed your time over here.

    • @docgonzales

      Anne i'm from Australia , now in the Cotswolds and the right of way rights are non existent back home. There was a famous High Court case in the '90's that was Aboriginals asking for right of way rights along ancient paths that are now privately owned farms. Even that concept got rejected by Australian law. You english don't realise just how lucky you are.

    The Slaughters are one of the few places in the UK not to have a War Memorial. They are what's know as a "Doubly Thankful Village" everyone who served in both the First and Second World War came home. We're lucky to live not far from here and the kids love paddling in the River Eye, all that water eventually gets to the Thames and runs through London...

    @chuckyboy6977 6 років тому +3

    I know I will get corrected for this, but the general difference between walk and hike is “a walk” is, normally a shortish distance travelled by foot and you finish back at the place you started.
    A hike is travelling by foot from point A to a point B, normally the distance is minimum 3-4 miles.
    There are groups that meet at country pubs and do long walks of 5 to 10miles, they are called Ramblers. A group would meet at the pub near my home, there was normally 30 to 50 people in the group. They’d go for a 12 to 15mile ramble along the public footpaths, and bridleways that criss cross the British Isles. At the end they’d then have lunch and a pint or two back they got back to the pub.

Are you guys gonna hit Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch in northern Wales? It’s touristy, but was one of those tourist places that I felt was worth going to. (Get a passport stamp at the place with the longest name in Britain! 😉) And there’s tons to see there and around there that is historic, beautiful, unique and amazing! I know you’re gonna enjoy it whatever you do and I can’t wait to see the videos. Hope you get a chance to check Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch out!

Both lovely places, and one being somewhat in the public eye lately, we hope and trust visitors will still chose to come (however just one day of visiting should be enough) !

    I’ve only just stumbled across your channel & im obsessed! It’s so lovely to see travellers properly exploring the U.K. (I.e not just London). I’m from/live in the Cotswolds and you’ve made me want to explore more of what’s on my doorstop :)
    (And you said it right...it’s pronounced ‘doomsday’ book)

    Glad you're enjoying the Cotswolds which is where I'm from. A lovely Little town called Nailsworth. It's part of an area of the Cotswolds called The Five Valleys. Some stunning views Definitely worth a visit.

    Glad you enjoyed your time here in Gloucestershire. It can be a bit expensive and has a tendency to be a tourist trap on warm weekends, but it is achingly pretty.
    But what is your obsession with sheep? 😅
