      We are looking forward to spending four nights at Buckland Manor in early December, and have hired a private guide from Broadway to show us your fabulous Cotswolds each day while there. We have you to thank for inspiring us to make this trip, and the added knowledge of the spooky side of the Cotswolds makes it even more interesting. If you are available, Ruth and I would love to share a pint with you!

    I'm from the U.S., and have been studying up on Great Britain, the RF, and anything else British. I fell in love with the Cotswolds. I love your History. You can't beat thousands of years of it. Growing up, in school we did study just a little bit of your history, just the basics. Enjoyed this very much. I long to move to Britain one day.

    This is the first video of yours I've watched, and I subscribed as soon as it ended. The stories are fascinating, and you give such insight into the history behind them. I'm American, but I've been to England twice and had a wonderful time there. I've also had a lot of friends in the UK for years. To be honest, I wish the US hadn't broken with England. Canada has kept its ties with England, and they are faring far better than the US in many ways.
