    Thank you for the video. My husband and I are from Anglesey (Ynys Mon is the Welsh name for Anglesey) and don’t manage to get back there as often as we would like.
    My husband’s great-great grandfather was lighthouse keeper at South Stack. Originally from South Wales, he had previously been posted to a lighthouse on Alderney, Channel Islands for many years and married there, which is how my sons are descended from some of the ‘old’ Alderney families.

    I am an American but my heritage goes back to Wales. I would love to see the country. Your video is awesome. So beautiful and photographic. As far as pronouncing some of those places, forget it. But it is fascinating. I am now subscribing and liking your video. Look forward to more. Don H Ocala Florida USA

      Welcome aboard. Thank you for joining us and enjoying our travels around Wales spent summer holidays there as a child and having a mother part Welsh you would think I would have learnt the pronunciations but they are very hard to learn. We have tried our best but I am sure we have made mistakes.
      Hope you enjoy some of our other content as well.

    Wow, what a lovely island! The combination of the dunes and greenery, as well as the ruins are just so irresistible, one of the most intriguing areas of the UK! This series on Wales has me really rethinking where I will go when I visit Ireland! Also loved how the music got so playful, watching the Red Squirrels in the "live" section! So glad there has been a successful effort to bring them back. So looking forward to seeing more in Anglesey! Cheers!

    Oh Simon, it sounds so brutal calling them Little Red Rodents!! They are the most adorable little creatures - we used to have them in the woods around us in Northumberland, did used to love seeing them. What a beautiful place to get away from it all - although, I wonder if the off season is a wiser time to visit? Bit like Devon & Cornwall, which can be like a sardine can once the kids break up. Keep well and looking forward to next weeks adventure - North Wales certainly has a huge amount going for it. Thank you.

    • @MemorySeekers
      @MemorySeekers  9 місяців тому +1

      Haha they are very cute, and were lovely to see again after so many years without a sighting. The high season will be busy for sure. I am sure it suffers just as Devon and Cornwall do in the summer months.
      We are thinking of heading to Northumberland soon, all recommendations welcome! 🤗

    In the 30 years or so of my travelling life I never managed to get near Anglesey. After a particularly brutal introduction to ferry trips first time round, planes always seemed worth the cost! 😉
    Also only ever managed to run into 2 reds. The first was seen scampering back up a tree near Würzburg Germany but where exactly the second 1 was has disappeared into the mists of old age (for the moment.) That's the true joy of these videos. No matter that the legs will now barely get you to the WC on time, you can still dredge up half-remembered visions of strenuous hikes to yon fortified bluff and up to marvel at the views from the tower thereon.
    Thanks boys! 😊
