This week we decided to delve a bit deeper into the reality of actually living in a lorry and showing you all what it's actually like. Especially on slower days like these, where we're not travelling from place to place.
Let us know what you prefer watching? The fast paced travel videos or the slower lorry days?
And of course, thanks for watching guys, we really do appreciate every single one of you that follows our journey 🌎

in the seventies, on caravanning holidays, we noticed a new product about the place, it was called the aqua-roll, still being made...
also, climbing into the bunk-bed with shoes on was punishable by death...
i loved those holidays with my family, RIP dad 1938 - 2024
Just a little heads up with the puppy, her bones are still developing and its not advisable to walk them for too long whilst still growing. We was advised one to two sessions of five minutes walking for each month of age, so for example a four month old pup could enjoy walks of 20 minutes at a time, once or twice a day. She is adorable ♥
We had the same advice!
Wow!
Can't believe you guys don't have an expanding garden hose for your truck. They come in 50m or even 100m lengths and when empty shrink right down. It would save the many trips to the tap with the watering can lol. They come with a bag aswell so easy to store.
I have never got on with the flat ones as they seem to kink very easily which is a shame as they sure save space. I now have a small diameter hose but, not only is it slow filling my 70L tank, I get embarrassed as feel people think I am filling up a swimming pool 🤣🤣
I live on a boat I’ve got a 50m hose on a reel if you get one get a blue one as it’s food safe
Off to Ireland to stay with Camper Vibe at their new house in west coast of Ireland.
Enjoyed the video. Thanks for letting us tag along to see how you do van life. Looks like you’re parked in a beautiful spot. Keira, the pasta looked good. Made me hungry.🙂
Glad you liked this one! A little different to our usual ones, but nice to show a different side to van life ☺️
Perhaps get 2 watering cans and the second will be filling while you are emptying the other one into the tank.
The children can keep an eye on the can so it does not overflow.
It's not often we have to do it by watering can x
You can get a small collapsible dog bowl and use your own water bottle,it can clip onto belts or rucksacks, can even double up as a feeding bowl.
Didn’t see the Northern Lights as I live in Australia but we had the most incredible display of the Southern Lights last week,
Aha amazing, equally as good im sure!
Hope Rick gets better soon . It's not surprising that people have colds with the messing around with the weather 😜
Good shout with the Dire Straits.put telegraph Road on and make your kids just sit down and listen to it.I did with mine.love your vlogs.Hope you feel better soon and get over the snots quickly.You kids are so happy and fullnof fun.We love watching your adventures.love Rosie as well.keep up the wonderful vlogs
Nothing Else Matters ...Metallica it's one of the songs my husband sings and plays the guitar to in his band. Acoustasonics.
Northern lights seen here near Málaga too!!
We had 4 Cocker Spaniels in the past, my favourite breed. When going to do their business, we always said "busy" then "good girl/boy" afterwards. Hope that makes sense. Kids are all cute, too!!
Enjoyed Ireland with camper vibe it lovely there
We live in South Wales and I saw a lot of stunning footage of the northern lights locally posted on Facebook.
We are off to France next week and we will definitely not be eating iced fingers! Love their sweet pastries in the afternoons and the Pain au Chocolate in the morning’s. Yummy 😋
Love watching your Day in the Life of Touring with the Kids ❤ squabbles included!!! 😂
Sounds great! The pastries in France are sooo good! X
Great insight into the everyday life of living in a lorry.
Iced buns are OK, but a bit too sticky, my fave is a Raisin Whirl.
For Rosie maybe consider a water bottle for you and a pop up bowl for her. Saves carrying two bottles. We do also have those dog ones, but they are a faff! Ive seen one where the dog licks the roller ball on the container and that looks good, no waste.
Toilet emptying is always a 🔵 job! I do the cleaning!
And its fine for you to keep the tantrums off the videos, we know the vlogs are just a snapshot of life, and kids will always fight and complain on occassions.
Looking forward to the next one already. 🥰
Susan Chris and Tilly 🐶
Exactly that! I clean the bathroom, so its only fair he empties the toilet 🚽☺️ Plus, I've changed WAY more nappies than him, so that's my excuse ☺️
Iced Fingers are just ... there's no words to describe them other than depressing lol, here kids have a hot dog roll with icing on it.
100% agree! Ric however is still rather fond of them 😂
My travels for the coming months are upto Redcar for the bank holiday and then down to Dorset for Tankfest in June.hopefully the weather will improve for us all
Oh lovely, Dorset is beautiful!
22:41 keep watching, we've apparently got about another year of sunspot peaks (& the CMEs that cause auroras).
I sort of saw it but frustrating my phone was too old to capture anything.
Hi everyone I have some advice for Rick on your hey fever don’t buy the medicine for it just buy lemons , Just cut a large lemon in half and then squeeze it for its juice into a glass then top up with water to its double in size and drink an hour before your breakfast. Also if you can stop eating bread in the summer months as your body finds it hard to digest bread I hope this works for you as it is cheaper.
We had a great view of the northern lights in the Cotswolds
That's pretty cool, so many people were so lucky to see it.
@@Touringwiththekids was fantastic but can’t send photos on chat that’s a real shame.will send you one on instagram
Hello I purchased a bottle with a drinking container on the end from Home Bargains it was £4.99 but you push the button to release the water what the dog doesn't drink it can go back into the actual bottle for later I would definitely recommend them a really good.
Loved this video you always put a big smile on my face… your kids are lovely normal siblings, fight’s tantrums and all 😂😂 lovely family ❤️
😊 thank you xx
Another great video. Looks like Rosie is settleing in well. I have just started doing home made bread myself. I cook in a pan on stove top. Trying differant recipes. Looking foward to your next adventure. Love to all and catch up next week.
Ohh lovely, it's nice to try new recipes. I think a cheesy one might be on the cards next
When I was in Ireland I discovered Wheaten Bread Mix. What I loved was same ml of buttermilk to gm flour. So I could go 350 of each and make a loaf or just 50 of each and make just one roll as I travel solo. Wheaten flour is whole meal with extra wheat bran, salt and baking power. No kneading needed either. Think similar to Soda Bread but kept better for some reason. It is a must try it you go to Ireland.
We love Uno! Thanks for sharing your typical day in the Lorrie.
It's great fun isn't it!
Just watched your recent video and it was great.
We are going up to Scotland in July with our caravan and two cockapoo's really excited about it as we have never been to Scotland so looking forward to it.
Also going to be meeting my penfriend who I have never met she lives in Ayrshire.
Can't wait to find out about your new trip all the best xx
That sounds great! Scotland is such a stunning place, have lots of fun! x

Sorry to hear that, but awesome you've got the all clear to travel 🎉 have the best time on the Isle of Wight
We are exactly the same always going shopping! Yes Ric love iced fingers. I am really looking forward to your next adventure I'm sure I know who you are visiting but keep everyone guessing 😂
We are still working jn the boat in between a very busy cricket season for both of our kids which means for us a lot of time sat watching not a bad life but little getting completed!! Looking forward to some days out in the cut during the summer ❤
Ohh I bet, would love to come see you on the boat at some point!
Do you know you can freeze pesto? We use an ice cube tray and make cubes of pesto once the jar has been opened and put the cubes in a plastic carton in the freezer
Not a bad idea! Although our freezer is a bit diddy for stuff like that x
Been watching you guys since day 1. To this day, definitely my fave YT family! so inpiring on top.
Wow, thank you! that's quite the accolade isn't it! x
Iced bun cut middle then put butter on it goes to next level
ohhh nooo haha 😛
What a beautiful family you are x
Thank you so much!
Amazing guys, love it, real life. Such an inspiration and trust I speak and find in you……
Suggest you try a Belgium Bun, from Palmers bakery in Needham, o like them a lot.
Yup, we had fabulous aurora here in France too.
You mean the inverter xx
That's the one 🤣🤣🙈🙈
Loved the vlog, the reality of van life!! Iced fingers are the best try them split open with Jam and clotted cream x
Loved watching your family day
Thank you 😊
Here in Portugal there were northern lights! You were listening to Metallica 😊
When Keira said that you'd be heading over for your next adventure, it makes me think you're going to do the Americas. 🤔
👊 for living the way you have chosen I think it can only be good for you n kids a great way to learn about life ♥️✌️👊
More parents should be doing what Kira and Rick are doing giving their children a real balance in the real world instead of handing them a tablet and letting them be raised via tic tock and a so called indoctrination system called an education in the UK .
@@louiserichards6252 agree think schools are like a popularity contest and don't teach the important things especially if you don't agree with the system.. government are a bunch of C's as well ✌️💜👊
We are off to Charmouth in a weeks time to a caravan park there - fossilling on the beach there. At the beginning of July going to the Isle of Wight for 3 weeks - cant wait. We have a touring caravan
Hi guys fantastic to see you again
And looking forward to your next adventure
Thanks 👍 we're excited to get back on the road again ☺️
Just watched the latest video sat in our rental MH in Revelstoke in Canada. (Can't believe 2 weeks ago we were chatting to you at Campout, amongst many others).
Ah amazing, how's Canada treating you?
@Touringwiththekids brilliant. Seen a bear at the side of the road and today elk & calf wandering in our Campground.
Just watched this and realised your on Garnhams field, just round the corner from where we are.
Good to hear your views on toilets. After years of cassette toilets we are contemplating a composting loo for our next build. Still undecided ATM
Pros and cons to both I think
Saw the lights in the New Forest
One of the best things we bought a spare tolled cassette great .😀
I love fishing at that lack
Saw the Northern lights in Whiteley 👍
I saw the northern lights down in Portsmouth! Didn't see much with the naked eye but looked good in the photos
Rick u need to educate ur kids with music please not knowing who Dire Straits outrageous😂😂😂😂
I like iced doughnut rings that I get from my local bakery, which saves some for me each week.
Iced fingers with a bit of bezzy butter on 😋😋😋😋 and the song "nothing else matters" metallica 🤘🤘
We are off on a road trip/rally “Homebrew and Pickles” down here in New Zealand ( bottom right on your wall map” Just saying. Dave & Anne. NZ.
Sounds like you're off to the Emerald Isle 👍
I enjoyed the video like always, have a great week
I'm with Keira, I would go without rather than have an iced finger. It's just a hot dog roll with icing sugar on top 🤣🤣. Chocky eclair or a vanilla slice 🤤🤤, or what about a glazed strawberry tart with creme anglaise, or what about.....😂 🤤 🤤.....I'm off to the bakery.... 🤣
You're making me hungry now too 🤣
😂
Also.... I know it's the wrong video, but Ric man, what went down with the tea quiz bud?! 🤣. I've got it mate ....it was the quality of the tea making, not your refined palate 😜😜😂😂
Hahaha 🤣🤣 Ric loves this comment!
I saw you heading up the M1 yesterday.
Sneaky sneaky 😏😄
loads of troll/comments today keep up with the good work
Thankyou x
Say hi to Louise and Emily
I sooooo love this video! I like the real life vibes !!!
Ah so good to hear! It's a bit of a different vibe to usual
Good night everyone are you enjoying your adventures in your motor home I hope you are all well and l love watching your videos of you and your adventures in your motor home please keep your videos going on your you tube channel please keep safe and warm
You can buy chocolate eclairs in most supermarkets in the UK, lol
Haha no Ric was meaning the eclairs with the chocolate cream in the middle
Enjoyed this and yes Keiras fish 🐟 was bigger 😂
Yes it was 🥳🥳
13:56 water vole?
(Ratty from Wind in the Willows).,
We constantly get comments about how good our little Ellie is. She has everyone fooled. 😂 Acts like a shy little angel in public and then makes up for it at home. Nice to know it's not just us. 😊
Also, I definitely dont see the point in an iced bun. Chocolate Éclair all the way!
I think you are meeting up with Em and Lou - Camper Vibe.
I have a composting toilet and, just me, the 💩 bit goes 3 months. Emptying the pee pot daily is a pain though
Hi guys, the Northern lights were seen by people in Kent
emptying the cassette in our caravan is actually a purple job.
Great choice of music Ric - Metallica 'Nothing Else Matters' from a classic album
Great tune isn't it 👍
visiting lou and Emily by any chance???? have a fab time xx
After North Africa I was just wondering if the kids miss the travel adventures
They enjoy both the adventures and the more chilled out times too. Here they've had lots of time to catch up with cousins and family ☺️
Where has your big e-bike gone?
I couldn’t see the northern lights by eye I heard they had been spotted nearby after I’d gone to bed so I got up and took some pics in the direction of where they were spotted and I got some pics
They do say it comes out way stronger on photos!
That was the reason I took the photos as I knew it could be visible by camera
I reckon you’re all off to Ireland ?😊
are you on a farmers field or a camp ground?
Thinking you could have emptied the wee pot under a tree which would have been closer than the disposal point.
It's a CL site. If there are facilities we prefer to use them rather than just dumping the wee.
Hi can I ask what's the name of the campsite you are on thanks
It's called Garnhams Field in Needham Market, Suffolk
Think you’re going to Ireland
Hi we wanna try the pasta what does the liquid consist of in the pasta mix please ?
Just veggie stock, double cream, and red pesto ☺️
You should try "Fly Fishing" by J.R Hartley !! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 cheaper than Ham ! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 If you know you know.
No pink or blue jobs in my house, only purple! Give it a try 😂
Haha I will do it when I have to 🤣 but it's mainly Ric's job
It was a water vole, not an otter 😅
Loving a bit of Metallica ❤
Iced Fingers are good IF the roll is sweet. If it's savory, ew. Lol.
absolutely!!!
My daughter’s favourite iced buns, as for me no way, I’d rather have a custard slice, xx
Inverter not alternator
I have'nt been on for sometime. What happened the other dog you had.
He passed away last year 😢
Whats good for cold warm lemonade honey lemon juice it's does the trick
Fishing with the kids come on
oh that poor fish the pain that poor little fish isi. 😜 but still like u all lol
Are you going to Ireland?
Nooooo, iced fingers are not worth the calories! Chocolate eclair all the way 😅
Yes to the chocolate eclair!!
Iced fingers, absolutely pointless , 🤷♂️ another great vid tho 👍👍😁
@touringwiththekid
Hi guys just a quick question for you what is next after travelling around the world
Who knows... the world is our oyster 🦪
It's a water vole
Have you got a uk rod license?
Hi guy's I have three well behave children stop laughing they're has well behave like your's lol
😂😂 what would we do without them hey!
Beeee bore out of our heads phahaha
20:05 in 30-odd years on the road I've never knowingly been anywhere with facilities for a cassette toilet. On the very very rare occasion I can't wait for a proper toilet I have a bucket & dog-mess bag for the solids & liquids go in the weeds under a hedge somewhere unvisited.
If I'm to be somewhere for an extended period I'll set up a composting toilet. I expect that if I was caught for a while somewhere urban I would open a foul drain & build a toilet over it, I don't know, it's never been necessary.
Obviously you have small children so the whole equation changes.
for the water just try teaching rosie to drink out of a normal 330ml water bottle.
