- In this final episode of our journey around North Wales we enjoy an afternoon with lovely views across Afon Dwyryd to Portmeirion waiting for the tide to come in.
The following day we visit Harlech Castle until a knee injury forces us to cut short our trip and head for home.

Many thanks for all the best wishes for my knee getting better. A period at home fixed it and we are already back on the road filming. Next video will be the start of the Isle of Man series 👍
Ahoy dear folks, so happy to hear that! Aye! Bear hugs to you both from the Captain .)
Glad to hear it ! Cannot wait for the IOM series !!!
Good to hear your knee is better and that you are back in the road, looking forward to your next video.
Oh and by the way, we got our phone bracket thanks x
So looking forward to your IOM vlogs. Glad you are all better.
Great news! looking forward to the IOM vlogs and being able to see your breakfasts xx
What's nice, is that you are both happy being yourselves. And, you clearly love each other to bits. I envy your lifestyle and togetherness. More power to you 😁👍
😊 thank you Paul.
Here here
Hope your knee heals soon ken. Just like to say a big thank you to you both for allowing us to join you on your trip . My wife Helen and myself have thoroughly enjoyed every moment. The drone footage and filming accompanied by the music are truly professional. We look forward to seeing future trips. Stay safe and healthy and see you both soon x
My wife and I feel exactly the same, such a privilege to feel part of their journeys 😎
I agree too - I love the vids, and am humbled by Ken and Carol’s willingness to share their lives with us - I am running out of back vids to watch now. Get well soon Ken x
You are most welcome. It gives us a lot of pleasure sharing our videos and receiving such lovely comments ☺️
Happy Healing Ken, who would have thought that an ice cream lid could be such a hazard.
And hope Carol's heart rate has dropped back down after that scare
Much love to you both, another fab video.
P.S if we ever meet, will have to get some drone tips from you, we have been carrying around two for the last few months without a clue how to use them 🤣 Pitiful I know, but we are stumped.
If you ever see drone footage in our video, it will mean a miracle has happened
Would love to meet and show you how to use the drone. Its easier than you might think. 👍. Well worth learning to use one. Stay safe and looking forward to what you do next 😁👍
Wales is stunning. I will miss the green, amazing scenery and waters and wonderful villages. Get well quickly Ken and get back out as I will miss you both. 🧡💚
Thanks Michele, will do 😊👍
Thankyou for showing us all these interesting little towns & villages & highways & byways & spillways & rillways.
How are you doing master ken auntie carol actually we are as foreigners subscribers as overseas students enjoy to explore places unknown to us to increase our cultural level improve our English so that I gathered main information about place you visited briefly here it’s harlech castle is grade listed medieval fortification built onto rocky knoll close to Irish Sea was built by Edward 1 during invasion of wales between years 1282 1289 its played an important role in several wars. With standing siege of madog apliywlyn. Between years 1249 and 95 failing to gwain. Glyndwr. In 1404. Than became glyndwr. Residence military headquarters for reminders of uprising until being recaptured by English forces in 1409 during 15 th century wars of roses harlech was held by Lancastrians for several years before yorksit troops forced surrounded in 1468 siege memorial
Finally it’s listed in song of men harlech following out break English civil war in 1642 castle held by forces royal to Charles holding out until 1647 when became last fortification to surrender to parliamentary armies in 21 th century ruined castle managed by cadw welsh government service tourist attractions UNESCO considered harlech with others at beaumaris conwy caernarfon. Tobe one of the finest examples of late 13 th century early 14 century military architecture in Europe classiced as world heritage site thank you for showing us such magnificent scenes historical places encourage us to read information stay safe blessed good luck to you your dearest ones
There was some really lovely music in this film. I particularly loved the piece you played by the river where the canoe slalom was. What a heavenly voice. That knee sounds a bit of a worry. These injuries can take a bit of time to settle! Get well soon Ken!
Thanks Simon. The knee is well on the mend 👍🙂
I always like your videos. It puts a yearning in my heart to see and experience the places you’ve been. Get that knee fixed and be careful with it! Mary
Thanks Mary ☺️
Hi both. Love the relaxed feel of your videos especially as there are no histrionics to get our attention (Do they call it 'click bait'?). I know nothing about the workings of UA-cam, that said, is it possible to put a marker either end where you visit an historic monument so I can skip by? I would rather have the experience of seeing them first hand. If not I will continue to scrub by. I am glad your knee is better and look forward to your next adventure.
l understand. There is no way I know of putting markers that can be jumped between and the most convenient method is the 10 sec jump backwards or forwards.
It’s such a shame you had to end the trip early. Your health comes first. Hope the knee is improving x
The knee is feeling much better, thanks Nadine ☺️👍
What nicknames does Carol have for you?
I couldn't possibly reveal that information, Denise ☺️
Superb vlog again! Loved every bit of it! Always in for the fun too! XD And that 'lucky sheep' moment got me! XD Love to hear you speak, I like how you show the simplicity of van life and travels! The Little Red Camper has a sweet spot in our hearts by now I believe. :) Captain of the good old Blackthorne
Thank you so much Kata for your kind comments. Wishing you all the best 🙂👍
Thanx for a beautiful trip. Sorry to hear about your knee. Could you not visit a doctor in Wales?
We could have gone to a doctor but it wouldn’t have been much fun not being able to walk far or drive so we decided to come home to recover. We will go back and see more of Wales on another trip 🙂
You wouldn't be out of place on bbc TV, commentary is fabulous, well done both of you 💖 💖 xx
Thank you Julie 😊
I thought the street in San Francisco would be a contender for the steepest street too right? Would it help to place your spare tyre on your bonnet or in front of your front bumper to improve the weight balancing of Little Red being a front-wheel drive?
I think it would certainly help with grip but the vans’s construction probably wouldn’t take kindly to it. Interesting suggestion. 👍
Glad the knee is well again and you're planning your next trip. All the videos on your Welsh trip were fantastic, many thanks for sharing such beauty... Keep safe.
You're welcome Diana. Thanks for watching 😀👍
Thanks for a cracking set of videos, how long were you away from home?
Locking forward to the next!
Thanks David.
Three and a half weeks. It was supposed to be five.
Thanks for this series, you're selling me the NV200 more and more with each trip.
You’re welcome Martin 😊
You two are just so well suited! Just a blessings. Heal up!
Thanks 👍
Wonderful videos. Is the bed comfy?
Thanks Louise. The bed is quite small but very cosy 👍
Great video as usual and glad your knees much better Kenl looking forward to the Isle of Man now, Bit random Carol but can you please recommend any walking shoes for women please as I'm having so much trouble finding waterproof comfy walking shoes? If you can help in anyway that would be great. Thank you so much. xx
Glad you enjoyed the video Tina. My latest walking shoes are Merrell Women’s Moab 2 GORE-TEX® . I ordered them direct from the Merrell website. They are extremely comfortable to wear but I did have a slip up in wet conditions as will be revealed in a future episode.
@@LifeistooshortCK Thank you Carol I have seen those and I don't mind the odd slip up as long as I'm all comfy. xx
excellent history around Harlech, am looking forward to visiting there soon, so thank you for showing us around! :D Look forward to your new series coming up :D take care!
I love love your videos #favourite. Your style is 👌🏻 You both come across as lovely and a very happy couple. Keep the videos coming, I am addicted! Lol xx
Thank you so much Kelly ☺️
Baldwin St in Dunedin goes straight up and down with no bends. It certainly seems steeper!
Again great photos from the drone. And of course scenery as well. Thanks.
Many thanks Larry 👍🙂
Ken, I have just realized we have met in your professional status when you came to our farm to report on progress following a burglary in the 80's , my parents and I considered you a very professional officer.
Thanks Adrian, nice of you to say so ☺️
Sounds like the knee is improving so sad your trip ended like that but wise choice to get it sorted. Well done carol with the driving I felt your pain. Jane occasionally drives Harry and went out for a few days on her own with her daughter. Loved Harlech castle clips and is a stunning one in many ways …..
Thanks Stew. It was the right time to go home as the knee is recovered now. Glad you enjoyed the castle 😀👍
Shame you had to cut your trip short, but glad your knees better Ken. Harlech Castle is a great place to visit. We ended up going down the steep hill you came up after we found the castle car park full, soo glad we didn't have to go up it. Carol did a great job👍. We stayed at Llandygwydd in the campsite just behind the car park where you stopped and was a lovely spot for a few nights by the sea.
Thanks for watching. That looked like a great campsite to spend a few days 😀👍
I loved your trip around North Wales. I've been to many of those places and it was great to re-visit them with you. I can't wait to see the Isle of Man as I've never been there. On a slightly obscure note, I remember you saying that you both liked softer buns for burgers and sausage sandwiches - I don't know if anyone else has commented on Aldi's Brioche buns. My wife and I love these for sausage sandwiches as they are very soft and have a slightly sweet taste. With Welsh butter (of course) and HP sauce Mmmm Mmmm....ps I'm watching from Swansea
Glad you enjoyed our North Wales series and we could bring back some good memories for you. Thanks for the tip about Aldi brioche buns, we will look out for those 👍🙂
Get yourself an automatic Ken. After 30 year of driving in Central London for the Met my left knee has suffered. I'm now driving an auto and don't look back.
The only autos are petrol in the NV200 (except the electric one). Would you believe it they don’t have aircon. 👍. My car is an auto and I appreciate how easy they are to drive.
Impressive capture of the tidal flat with flooding back at the moment, the church of St Tanwg‘s looks like the same with Ireland's typical style with the guessing of the root, steep road structure, the condescending castle is amazing creatures by the Welsh craftsmen witnessing the heavy history stories, scenery country road back home, best wishes for the recovery of Ken's knees, bravo finale for the North Wales Peninsula Series.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed this series. The knee is much better now 🙂👍
Although I'm subscribed and should get alerts I have only just found your video in this series. I've seen Harlech Castle from a distance but I've never driven up there. Ithink you're very brave Carol 👍. I'm sorry to hear about your bad knee, although Isee from the comments section it's now much improved. No offence but if you are not aware of doing anything to cause it, it might just be age related wear and tear. I'm sure you're well aware, quite common among retired Coppers. The coffee making scenes reminded me that I have a recommendation for you. I think you would like " Brown Bear " coffee. They sell beans and pre-ground but also two or three varieties in nicely sized coffee bags. I know Ken likes a good rounded strong coffee and you have carted all sorts of kit with you to get a good strong brew. All you need is water and your mug for these. One bag will give you a 12 flavour oz mug. I brew for five minutes instead of the recommended three and I like their Mambo Italiano in the early morning. Complex flavours and no bitterness as long as you don't scald it ( let the kettle cool a minute or two before pouring over the bag, ideally about 90° . Unlike offerings in the supermarket these are in a resealable bag like some beans are in. They do a Blue Mountain in bags too. Google them, I believe they only supply direct. Happy trails both.
Thanks for watching Nigel. The knee is much better now so think it must have been a sprain from slipping on the ice cream lid. Thanks for all the coffee recommendations, we will look into them 😀👍
@@LifeistooshortCK look in your email inbox for an email from "the bruin". It's a Gmail address so shouldn't have been treated as spam. I really think Ken will enjoy these coffee bags. 👍
@@nigeldavey1043 many thanks 🙂👍
Hi ken and carol
I love the music you put on to your videos
Keep it going mate!
Thank you
Dale
Thanks Dale 🙂👍
How stunning Portmeirion looked by drone. Can’t beat a good Miller & Carter steak I’m sure it picked you both up nicely on your jourknee, sorry journey, home. Take care both ❤️
Haha, thanks Sue. Yes, Portmeirion is a special place, we visited it in 2008. The meal did help ease our disappointment at going home. Best wishes to you 😘x
Thank you for a beautiful trip to Wales. Such a shame you had to go home a bit earlier, that must’ve been a very long trip back. Hope knee is fully recovered. I shall look forward to seeing the Isle of Man. A lady I look after often reminisces about her holidays on IOM so I’ll be able to tell her the places you visit. X
Cheers Louise. 👍
Fabulous drone shot of Portmeirion 👍 very enjoyable video please let us know how the knee injury works out
The knee is feeling much better thanks James ☺️
Thank you for sharing, we hope you knee stayed healthy, because we hope to see a lot more, we like B-roads as well, You did a nice review of the castle Harlech, we hope to visit that when covid is all over!
Thanks guys. Harlech is definitely worth a visit. The knee is much better now thanks 🙏 🙂
Love your videos. You remind me of a poor man David Attenborough 😁 in a really good way 😜 Best wishes from amlwch port. Hope your knee gets better soon
Thanks Sophie ☺️👍
Oh my goodness you were about half a mile from our pub, before you took the road over the top to Llanganog. Hope the knee it better. Look forward to following you around the Isle of Mann
Thanks Linda, the knee is feeling much better ☺️
Hi Ken and Carol. Sorry to hear about your knee Ken, look forward to seeing your Isle of man vlogs. Pity your not going on a bike, great roads on the TT course. Best wishes. Andy.
Thanks Andy. We will have to make do driving the course in the little red camper - much safer ☺️
Ken, hope your knee is better now🤔loved the series 😊 looking forward to your next adventure😃 take care and thanks for sharing👍
Thanks Anita. The knee is much better now 🙂👍
Great trip! I hate hills, and I do all the driving, I would say I've got a phobia, cos I've been up some hairy ones in France. What were u both listening to on the headphones? (if u don't mind me asking)
We were experimenting with noise cancelling headphones while driving ☺️
@@LifeistooshortCK oh, thanks, is ur van noisy then, and are they safe(not hearing traffic/noises, /sirens, coming etc ?)
@@susanwoods174 the van isn’t too noisy, we were just seeing what difference the headphones made on the motorway with all the traffic. Only one of us was wearing the headphones at a time.
what mpg are you getting with the van ken.
We have just done a calculation. In the last 11 days we have driven 392 miles at 48mpg.
FANTASTIC VIEWS
THE CASTLE YOU HAD GREAT VIEWS FROM
COUNTRY SIDE BEAUTIFUL.
HAVE YOU GOT ARTHRITIS
IN YOUR KNEE?
THANK YOU FOR SHARING
ALWAYS ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS.
ENJOY YOUR DAY.
Thanks Moira. No it’s not arthritis, just a sprain.
Portmeirion, "I am not a number, I'm a free man!" Did you see the large bouncy ball on the beach chasing any escapees?
Not this time 😁👍
What an amazing time you had good food good company great places to visit here is to your next adventure hope your knee gets better my wife suffers with her joints all the best donny
Thanks Donny. Best wishes to you and your wife 😀👍
Thank you so much for your entertaining journey of North Wales. Both of you make lovely vids. Sorry you have hurt your knee hope you recover quickly. You are such a great couple 😀
Thank you so much Carol ☺️👍
I wake up & eagerly see if you have posted a new video
When one does come up, I get my cup of tea & watch.
When you show the awesome breakfast, I then get the ingredients ready and have a bbq breakfast the next day
Loved the Harry Potter type music early on
Hope your knee gets better and be back to finish this adventure
Thanks again for posting, it helps in our lockdown
Thanks for watching Paul, Enjoy that bbq breakfast. Hope your lockdown ends soon ☺️
Gutted as you that you have had to cut your trip short, but as someone who suffers with hip & knee pain you have my sympathy Ken, hope it's not long term. That car park you stayed on over night, is where we parked back in 1960's & it has not changed a bit. Will be passing it on my way to Shell Island camping just up the road in a couple of weeks time, my heaven on earth place. Has Carol stopped shaking yet? in all the years I have been going to Harlech I would never attempt to drive that way to the castle it's bad enough walking. Thanks for some wonderful memories & hope to see you back on the road soon. P.S hope the weather is better for me in a couple of weeks time.👍😁🌞😎
We certainly won't be approaching Harlech from that direction again! Hope you have a lovely time and good weather at Shell Island 🌞😀
I hope you're knee gets better soon. Looking forward to your next adventure. I'm off to Scotland soon.
Thanks Simon. Enjoy Scotland ☺️👍
I always wonder how ladies of old managed those castle stairs in long dresses
Highlights for us, the salt flats (love seeing those twisty turny streams from above) and the castle but loved the whole series. Hope the knee is better.
Thanks Mike and Trish. The knee is feeling much better now 🙂👍
As always a beautiful vlog. That hill was quite scary, glad your knee is on the mend. Gill
Thanks Gill 👍☺️
You've had a great adventure, thanks for sharing it with us, I feel I like I've been with you in the van every step of the way!
Glad you enjoyed it Stuart 🙂
I hope your knee gets better quickly and we can join you on more adventures. I look forward to your videos. Regarding the steepest Street discussion, according to the Otago Daily Times, “ the Guinness Book of Records reversed its decision to strip Baldwin Street of its claim to fame...In April last year Guinness backtracked, accepting its measuring method was wrong.” When I was young and we were in a family holiday, I remember my dad driving it. Us kids loved the experience, my dad not so much 😀😀 Take care, get well soon
We feel your dad's pain 😱 Thanks for watching 🙂
Enjoyed your choice of music in this video.😊
Thanks Helen 🙂
Sorry to hear that you had to cut your trip short, hopefully Ken you will be soon on the mend. Take care and look forward to your next adventure.
Thanks Stephen. The knee is much better now 🙂👍
As always, great video :)
Great idea having Google maps running beside your sat nav, we're gonna do this. Thanks for the tip
I drove that hill too Carol..! Reminded me of Lombard street in SanFrancisco! We picked up fish & chips in Harlech & pitched up for the night at the children’s farm park in Llanfair quite close by. Hope your knee recovers for IOM trip Ken.
Well done for driving up that hill! The knee is much better now thanks 👍☺️
I hope your knee heals quickly and you are back out having adventures again very soon. I am binge watching your previous videos, hooked. Tonight I have had the Aldi breakfast patties with hash brown and an egg for my tea, so tasty 😊. When we drive to southern Spain my husband suffers with painful knees. He takes Ibuprofen every six hours and paracetamol every six hours, two hours apart. His doctor suggested this and it works for him. He takes these for three days and his pain usually clears. Take care
Thanks for watching Michelle. Ibuprofen and paracetamol sounds like a good remedy 👍🙂
We are so lucky to live on Anglesey, the area you have visited is, in my opinion the best part of Wales. A very interesting series and interesting to get another perspective on our home. From somebody who earned his living on the motorways of this country my heart sinks now when I have to join one. We look forward to your return, maybe a meet or two with fellow campervaners from the area and take the local knowledge as to places to visit. You would not regret it. Best wishes both.
You are indeed lucky to live on Anglesey and we loved our visit there. Best wishes 🙂
Top class as normal.glad your knee is ok looking forward to the next trip.
Thanks Dave ☺️
Another fantastic video. 👍👍👍
Sorry to hear you had to cut the trip short and really hope that knee is better soon.
Take care both. 👍
Thanks Andy 😊
So glad of you for tour of North Wales, looking forward to your Isle of Man tour. Glad your knee is feeling better, take care both of you and stay well xx
Thanks Linda 🙂👍
Glad your knee has improved Ken. I am pleased you showed us around the castle as I was not able to visit it on my Wales trip in 2014. Looking forward to your next adventure!
You're welcome Del ☺️
Thank you again for a beautiful drive.
Lovely Portmeirion - "I am not a number, I am a free man!" Well except for servicemen and coppers, where we are "a number" eh Ken?
What a nice way to round off your trip to North Wales.
👍🙂
Miller & Carter? You’ve just gone up in our estimation!
Bet it feels good to be home.
Time to rest that knee and make some more plans 👍🏼
That meal was a lovely treat to ease our disappointment at going home ☺️😋👍
Hope all goes well with your knee.
Feeling much better now, thank you Marie 🙂
Thankyou both for sharing your journey in Wales. Enjoyed every video.Hope your knee feels better soon Take care.
Thanks Leanne ☺️
Aw Ken hope you haven’t hurt your knee too badly and you are feeling better soon. Love the vlogs. Best wishes Lindsay and Mike 👍
Thanks Lindsay and Mike. The knee is much better now 🙂
lovely music ken at the start of the video
Thanks John ☺️
Hi folks glad your knee is better Ken. Look forward to the next one ☝️
Thanks Mike 👍
Hope you get well soon Ken ,as we’re all looking forward to the next video. Fortunately you’ve a top notch co-pilot with you !
Thanks Ian ☺️ 👍
Hope your knee heals quickly. You made that right decision to go home. Looking forward to seeing you guys on the road soon.
Thanks Thomas ☺️
Glad the knee is healing ken after a rest, Enjoyed your Wales trip and looking forward to your Isle Of Man trip x
Speedy recovery ready for your next adventure hopefully if you decide to revisiting Wales further south you would both encounter some beautiful hidden gem's..the Welsh series was an absolute delight to watch your efforts are greatly appreciated 😊
Thanks Sue. We will be returning to Wales later this year 🙂👍
Well done Carol for getting up that hill to Harlech! I’ve only done it once, it was raining too, definitely not for the faint hearted! 🥵
I so felt for you, I shook exactly the same, you’re not alone 😬 as Ken said, what did you learn…I learnt that I’d find another way in, if I visit again 😂
You are so right Sandy. If we visit again we will remember not to approach it from that direction!
Driving through the road and fairy type trees I would have liked to experience. Lovely sights...thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it Shirley 🙂
Baldwin Street is _steep!_ I remember from our trip to NZ several years back. If your street is about the same as that was, I wouldn’t walk it with my crap knee either!
You have the best ruins in the UK. I’d love to tour some one day. Bit of a hike from my house, so it will remain firmly on my wish list for now.
That scone was nearly as big as your head! Now i want a scone 🙄🤦🏼♀️😂
@@lindak8664 at least Baldwin Street is straight up with no bends 🤣
Good things do come in small packages. Lol
Sorry to hear about the injury Ken, sensible decision, know when to cut your losses. Appreciated the extended edition, trust you are well on your way to recovery, I'm guessing you are on the three legged isle. Take care, let Carol make a bit of a fuss over you (not too much though, eh Carol!).
Thanks Richard. The knee is much better for our IOM trip 😀👍
You capture it all so beautifully . The editing and photography is wonderful. Thank you both for allowing me to travel with you. Hope your knee recovers soon Ken. Lovely
Our pleasure Willie. Glad you enjoyed it. The knee is much better now thanks 🙂👍
Wow, over 30 minutes this time, I absolutely enjoyed your video, Carol and Ken!
I hope you’re feeling much better by now, Ken. Can’t wait to see more of your travels.
Stay safe.
Greetings 🖖🏻 from Australia 🇦🇺!
Greetings Asahi in Australia. Thanks for watching 🙂👍
Great vlog, get well soon. Regards AJ
Thanks AJ 👍☺️
Once again the drone shots were stunning, you have the nack my friend,
Last time I was portmeirion was 40years ago🥺,
Hopefully getting a wee van in a couple of years time, and your blogs are a great inspiration, many thanks
Thanks Douglas. Hope you get your van 🙂👍
Glorious xx
Sorry to hear about your knee Ken. Hope you get it sorted soon. Loved the drone shots and also Harlech castle. Definitely worth a visit. Take care both of you 😊
The knee is well on the mend now thanks 👍🙂
Hello Ken / Carol good news to hear your knee is all healed and you are back on the road. Harlech Castle is one place I have always wanted to see it must of been one of the great strong holds in its day, such a commanding view. I will be looking forward to your Isle of Man trip as I am a big fan of the TT I have never been there yet but it is on my list , when you are there look out for the Joey Dunlop memorial up on the hill , Joey was from my Fathers hometown of Ballymoney I remember Joey very well he and his wife Linda ran Joeys Bar in the old railway station bar. Enjoy your weekend take care always.
Thanks Shaun, we will look out for that memorial 👍🙂
@@LifeistooshortCK Ken if you get a chance to look up the documentary called Road its well with watching.
@@shaunmckenna1923 will do 🙂👍
The history of the ruins is very interesting.
Dear K&C, our daughter says if cloning ever becomes legal she'd like a Carol and Ken please living either side of us...🥰🥰🥰
Now that would be well creepy 🤡🤡🤡
@@LifeistooshortCK Ken....you think that's creepy....Try Stepford Wives meet Stepford Husbands...then you have our close residents in mind.
Creepy...it's here we live in that reality..🎃🎃🎃
Sorry your trip has been cut short, hope your knee improves quickly.
Thanks Lisa 🙂
Hi Ken and Carol. Sorry you had to curtail the trip due to Ken’s injury. Probably the right decision in the circumstances. Where’s home (roughly) for reference?
Also, was it something special you both listened to when not doing the driving?
Harlech castle looked very interesting indeed. All the best from Mal, Dave and Sally the Lab aka
The SilvertopMotorhomers xx
Hi Mal and Dave. Home is Haywards Heath in West Sussex. We were experimenting with noise cancelling headphones to see what difference they made when driving ☺️ Best wishes to you and of course Sally 🐶❤️
@@LifeistooshortCK Cheers for the response. How did you find the headphones- were they worth it?
@@SilvertopMotorhomers they did cut out most of the road and traffic noise but we probably won’t bother with them unless maybe doing a lot of motorway driving.
Hope the knee problem is resolved quickly Ken. Looking forward to seeing where you go next, your Wales trip has been a great watch. Best wishes to you both from Mark and Dawn.
Thanks Mark and Dawn. The knee is well on the mend 🙂👍
Wonderful video and very special music ...north Wales is spectacular. .I m in Bangor by the way. ..which town do you live ?Big hugs and thanks again!
We loved our trip to North Wales and I’m sure we will be back one day. We live in Sussex 🙂
Hope you feel better, Ken. Looking forward to next video.
Thanks Larry. The knee is much better now 👍🙂
Loving your videos, get better soon with your knee xx
Thanks Marie ☺️
