It’s so warm in Scotland at the moment. Only last week it was so so cold 😂. The walks are brilliant there aren’t they. Think you’re parked in the same spot we were lol. Plus the picnic benches are such a nice touch.
Hi 👋🏻 Dan and Maz Loving your Scotland 🏴 trip, it’s the most special place.. What a shame about your sausage, that’s disappointing 😅 You both look soo happy and fresh as daises. Lots of love ❌❌💕💕🇦🇺🇦🇺🏴🏴
Hi Dan and mazzy The cutting of the monks hair is called a “western monastic tonsure” the reason it’s “western” is because it specifically originated and was practiced in western Christianity. signifies loads of different things due to local traditions, but in a nutshell it represents the status of being a monk, obedience and humility.
have massive amounts of fun...my cat got a baby field mouse yesterday...and guess what i did with it.............took him in and gave him a warm bed and food for the night...his name is paul...because i found him half dead under the tarpaulin...anyways have fun times you 2 xx
Hi dan and mazzy loving these vlogs so pretty all the hanging baskets of flowers etc sweetheart abbey fancy being buried with your husbands heart thats weird nice place though and the mill was nice too l like square sausages Mmm yum greggs sausage rolls are the best 😊
Tonsure can also refer to the secular practice of shaving all or part of the scalp to show support or sympathy, or to designate mourning. Current usage more generally refers to cutting or shaving for monks, devotees, or mystics of any religion as a symbol of their renunciation of worldly fashion and esteem.
Monks shaving their heads .Renunciation: Shaving their heads is a way for monks to renounce vanity and worldly ways, and to detach from their external appearance. Lymbolism: Shaving their heads is a symbol of their commitment to their monastic life, and of their renunciation of worldly goods and ego. Purification: Shaving their heads is a way to purify themselves. Practicality: Shaving their heads can be practical in hot weather. Pabbajja: Shaving their heads is part of the process of Pabbajja, which is the process of leaving home to live as a Buddhist renunciate. .Gender differentiation: Buddhist monastics, regardless of sex, wear the same robes and shaved heads.

You pair are a great watch follow you everyday from sunny Leicester keep up the good work but do you mind but what is that bird song app you have it’s very helpful thank you
One of my favourite vlogs in ages! I always love a good abbey ruins, and that old Cornmill was the icing on the cake - what a brilliant looking place! I love anything like that, so much history out there just waiting to be found. Excellent place to camp too - proper traditional camping right there. Loved it.
Hi both. Interesting vlog again. The hanging baskets with summer bedding are still flowering amazingly there!. Mine in Bristol are all going over and getting pansies etc ready to plant. Thought they’d be long over in Scotland with colder temps. You’re getting lovely weather. Make the most of it😎🏴xx😻
Hello how you both doing sorry it's been a while since I commented but I have been watching and it's fantastic seeing you both back to the old ways and I love it and sweetheart abbey we been there a few times and love it it was closed when we last went in February also may I say a place for you to visit as it's not far from there nip down to southerness there is a very old square lighthouse on the beach and a big carpark that's depends if you already gone past as I'm guessing your a day behind we been loads of times and love it there anyway can't wait to see more all the best. ❤
@@TravelTrollsTV there is one there it's right near the park Dean resort so you come up to park Dean on the left keep going down the road there is a pub on the right and arcades and chippy on the left and the car park is right opposite and then you just walk straight down and the light house is there.
Oh Dan your beetle impression was brilliant 😂 lovely footage of the tit and Robin. Lady godzilla🙈....stunning sweetheart Abbey. Shame it wasn't open. The old cornmill was fascinating and having that guided tour was an added bonus I bet. I reckon that motorhome couple definitely had your square sausages.....at least mazzy got her tablet of fudge. oh blimey I do rattle on😂

Wow it all looks so beautiful you have been so lucky with weather lads enjoying the vlogs thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I suppose you’ll be meeting up with JP along your travels, cause he’s up there too 😂
The pub does lovely meals
I’d use one of the cushions or a pillow to sit on Dan solve the numb bum issue haha x
I really love how respectful you are on the campsites and the places that you visit, If only everyone was like you 😄
And the monks would shave their heads to renounce fashion and vanity.
I am happy that I started watching you and Mazzy again. I didn’t realize how much I missed your videos.😊❤️

Looks good but l cant find a car park on Google maps.
@@TravelTrollsTV there is one there it's right near the park Dean resort so you come up to park Dean on the left keep going down the road there is a pub on the right and arcades and chippy on the left and the car park is right opposite and then you just walk straight down and the light house is there.
@@TravelTrollsTV there is also public toilets there and that's the car park well big enough for the motorhome.
Make it easier this is post code Southerness, Dumfries DG2 8AZ
Carpark will be on the right hand side.
Thanks for the info 😊@@theellmersadventures
