    Helen has a heart of gold and honestly I wish I was more carefree like her. Its wonderful watching her not give a hoot what anyone thinks, just being completely herself and enjoying every moment. I've always cared far too much what everyone thinks. I'd be reacting the same way as you as I'd be embarassed but if everyone could be more like Helen everyone would be so much happier! 😊 I think you both balance each other out perfectly.

    What Helen did at the end of the video, with the drunk guy, was very impressive and heart warming. I'm quite shy so I go out of my way to avoid anything and everything, so hopefully there aren't many like me, and thank god for people like Helen. It takes ba115 to do that, but it also takes compassion and a heart of gold.

    Your travels, unlike my own, have a chaotic character to them. I like the peaceful ambiance of a place and the nature that is all around us. I might go and investigate Ripon after I've done some research into what is worth photographing. I like to wander around unnoticed and explore a place and its history. It's strange how there seems to be hundreds of people choking the streets these days. Fifty years ago, I could walk empty streets wherever I went, because everybody was at work and housewives were shopping, not getting under my feet.

    A cracking video 👍 Ripon looked absolutely glorious in the sunshine ☀️ There were a couple of characters who were a bit worse for wear (and I don’t mean Helen 😮😂)
    What a great day you looked to have had. I love the accompanying musak too 😂 Morris dancers, however, are one of my pet hates. Something weirdly sinister about them 🤷‍♀️

      REM: nothing sinister about Morris Dancers, it is the Traditional dance of England, and they are just having fun dancing 💯💯🇬🇧🇬🇧

      @@joline2730 And I’m English and I live in North Yorkshire and I appreciate the tradition, but on a personal level, for reasons I can’t explain, they give me the creeps.
