Hi there, thanks for your comment, glad it brought back some memories for you 👍
Thank You for sharing your adventure with us. Wonder filled scenery, music and culture. The area you covered was home to many of my ancestors and your film just helps me to wonder.
Hi there, thanks for your comment 👍
What a cracking video and very informative you fair coverd the ground there we tend to go down to Dumfries and galloway now as a lot quieter and good 👍🏴
Hi, yeh we put in a lot of miles over the 5 days, but we're unfortunate with the weather, you will enjoy the area tho 👍🏴
Your accent is amazing..
My surname is Irwin, but ( i am by DNA a Bell related to Redcloak of Blackethouse tower) got to Dumfries in 2017, the local history society was closed for the Christmas hols
Howdy, that's a shame about being closed, would have been very interesting. The dumfries and Galloway area is full of surprises 👍❤️
Enjoyed that, thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
Thankyou for your video. Just beginning to research our trip for later in the year. Your video was really helpful in the planning of our itinerary.
Just subscribed to your channel.
Hi there, thanks for your comment, the D&G area has plenty to offer, just your luck with the weather tho 🤞❤️
@@travellingbairns we prefer the bad weather. Always makes for more interesting videos lol
Very nice memories of home. Just rather disappointed you looked at Gretna, Pwofoot, and missed out Annan, which I was hoping you might have visited, considering its association with WW1 & 2 munitions production and engineering.
Hi there, we did visit Annan and museum, just didn't film it, perhaps on another trip as its a lovely area 👍
Not quite a full tour, I notice you swerved around Stranraer😄.
Yeh it got a miss coz of weather, we headed inland after Port Patrick, perhaps get a visit in future, thanks for comment 👍❤️
Agree, I to thought they would have went into Stranraer.
Aye it's a Braw part of the UK!!
It sure is and many bypass the area 👍❤️
Very interesting trip. Did you film it in one day or was it a wild camping few days?
Hi, we were away for 5 days wild camping and travelled the region in order of video, only had one decent day of weather, great area to visit, plenty park ups etc, just your luck with the weather 👍❤️
We won't be bumping into you this week we are up in Inverness ......Hilary Kenny and the two doags 😢
Hi, hope you are doing well, enjoy and happy travelling 👍❤️
Camper vans are a dirty word now .The camper community doesn’t respect the land or people. Not accusing you personally but there’s plenty guilty culprits out there.
Understand what your saying, we see plenty of disrespectful vanlifers on our travels, I have been very tempted to video them and name and shame their reg numbers 👍❤️
