    Thank you so much for taking us along - thank your lucky stars you are in the UK where you can take a day trip and find something worth looking at, plus get a pub lunch! Cheers! I Had my booster shot yesterday, as well as the flu shot - not letting anything get me if I can help it!

    • @CarolineMrsM

      Hi Fiona - I had my flu jab yesterday and the pharmacist told me I'd get a text to book my booster Covid shot exactly six months after my last one, so should be mid-Nov :)

    Your days out are very enjoyable, I love the towns you visit, and the interesting snippets, even if Ashley is "not a bloody tourist"! 😉 It's nice to be a kind of tourist in your own country sometimes, though I am in the Republic of Ireland not the UK. I would love to visit the UK sometime. Looking forward to your next outing 🌻😊

    Love your days out! That's what I really miss about Vic being in another location right now, we call them Family Field Trips and can't wait until he's back and we can go exploring again. What is the feeder you bought? The sound cut out a little and there was a glare so I couldn't read the label when you put it down.

    • @CarolineMrsM
      @CarolineMrsM  3 роки тому

      It's a bird feeder for fat balls. Hope you've had a lovely time with Vic after so long apart, Pamela :)

    What a great idea to do the days out videos especially the National Trust properties. Im in the NW so dont get to visit the places as far as your area. There are some fantastic places to visit. Look forward to seeing more of your days out. I agree with Ashley its not really a castle! But still interesting nevertheless.

    Good afternoon caroline, what a lovely day out and so very nice to bring us along, I so agree with Ashley after been jabed 2 times then getting covid 4 weeks ago and still feel exhausted I can not understand people not taking the vaccine I was so ill goodness no what I would have been like if I had not 😊😁

      Some people due to their health are unable to take the vaccine. So it would be nice if they were considered just this once. I'm fed up with people ramming vaccine agendas and antivax slogans. Have a thought for the sick 😷 people maybe then this madness would finally stop!!!

    Enjoyed that especially Chagford as I've been there, and remember the square (a tiny vegetable shop?) and the hardware store. Standard of driving - agree. Couldn't tell you the number of times recently someone has pulled out in front of me and then driven at a snail's pace with a clear road behind me!

    💕😀xx thanks for the vlog Caroline. We visited Drogo this autumn for the third time. My grandmother Jane Facey, was married for a very short time to Adrian the eldest son of Julius Drewe before he died in the 1st. war then went on to marry my grandfather. The castle is beautiful now it was been newly renovated.

    We had a national trust membership in 2018/19. They are just fab. Thank you for showing us the castle. Lovely property. I liked the music used while you where driving the country roads too. Its awful when there isnt enough space to get two cars through. One thing I dont like about English country roads, wish councils would do something about it. No wonder you have the biggest tallest car. I would also feel safer in one of them. Fab day out, thank you for taking us with you! Xx

    • @CarolineMrsM
      @CarolineMrsM  3 роки тому

      We spent many years living in villages up single lane roads so I got used to them over time, but I must say I don't miss them now we live closer to town.

    @denisecarter5117 3 роки тому +1

    Why do your roads narrow down in places where cars can’t go two abreast? I would think there would be many wrecks.
    Fun visiting the castle.

    • @CarolineMrsM
      @CarolineMrsM  3 роки тому

      They were originally country lanes for horses and carts, I think. I guess the practicalities of widening these country roads (privately owned land, funds available, houses that sit right next to the lanes) would make it impossible to do.

    Lol; I laughed out loud with Ashley’s quip about the zoo and going to visit your relatives because that’s exactly what my husband says whenever we take our grandsons to the zoo, “boys, we are going to visit nana’s relatives in the zoo.”
