Thanks Scott! Glad you enjoyed the ep! We will see you next week! P.s thanks so much for taking the time to comment, really appreciate it!

They were very steep and it was a struggle for him, but slow and steady gets him in and out! 😍

It really is! So stunning! Just have to beat the crowds!

Thank you so much! I am so glad you could see it through our eyes. You should still visit Hadrian's wall if you can, and there's a memorial type area where the tree was too. And you're so try, it's hard to imagine the age and history as Aussie. I hope you have an amazing adventure, anything else we can help you with just ask!

In a way yes, but we also carry quite a bit of expensive camera gear that I would have had to leave there unlocked, so didn't feel comfortable. I would have been nervous/stressed the whole time, & it would have taken the joy away, so it wasn't worth it for me. It was a tough call though. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the episode. 👍🏼

Thank you! I hope you caught the last of my replies in the chat!

@ yes , might have to catch up on instagram messages one night, use to help with their targets for the algorithm

That sounds good!

Thanks Stewie! Glad we got through that ordeal. 😅

There are definitely some similarities between the two!

Absolutely! A real experience is what we say! :)

Yes, depends if you can make the most of all the beds 😂

Thanks! Us Aussie folk are generally respectful beings :)

It sure is! A lot to remember and control.

Thanks Mark! Appreciate the watch, comment and info! P.s. my maiden name is Wilkie and I have family that came from Scotland to Aus.

Wow! What an experience to abseil it and canyon through! I'm sure that would have been exciting and thrilling at once. There were many in the water walking through some of it, we were not well prepared haha. I've not heard that saying, I looked it up & I like it, it's such a great way to look at life. 👍🏼🍻

That's a great question! We saw the Whitby Cathedral that is ruins now too, but also a paid experience to visit it and the museum (coming up in a couple of episodes), it makes me think it must be due to the reason that caused damage maybe war damage or something else as to why they are left that way. 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks 😆 Glad you think so!

Scotland just has so much to offer! We sure do love it, if only it was warmer haha! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, we appreciate it! See you next week for part 2?

@@OverlandExposuren If it was warmer it wouldn’t be Scotland.

Very true!

Thanks very much, glad you liked it! & that I managed to show it's beauty! :)

That is what we love about Scotland (we actually say this in next week's episode haha).

Thanks Robert. We did post on our FB & Instagram in advance of visiting Scotland for suggestions, however most things suggested are paid. We do manage to find some great free and cheap attractions to mix in with the paid ones, and like you said we found some great gems either way :)

Very true! :)

Crazy prices, honestly. We looked at doing the NC 500 and a bnb room for the three of us was going to be £800 at a few different places in random towns in the North. We were 'peak' time I believe so apparently that was why 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️ we were so shocked 🤯

@@OverlandExposure Next time try Premier Inn , Greenock or Inverness or Fort William or Forth Bridge. 1 family room, 2 Beds with breakfast under £150. Stay away from Premier Edinburgh ,Crazy price.

Greenock is always the cheapest one. Easy access to Loch Lomond, Glencoe via Erskine free bridge. Also Inverary,Bute and Argyle via Western Ferrys,they charge. Easy drive to Nardini`s ice cream parlour in Largs.

@TheDarkhorse1947 sounds great! Thanks! 👍🏼

@@TheDarkhorse1947There’s a Premier Inn at Balloch on Loch Lomond.

Haha why thank you! I believe I am a rare species also 😂

Thank you, really glad you enjoyed it :)

where's the puke emoji?

@ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤮🤢

it is amazing isn't it!

hahaha absolutely!

I was going to pick you up on that! 🤣

Typical Teacher 🙄

you know you can edit you're comments!?

@@OverlandExposure you’d have no one to pick on then 🤷‍♂️

true!

I figured something like that but why don't they just change it to lake already... 🤣 they call a castle, a castle, and a forest, a forest... etc...

But a Girl is a Lass, a Grandfather is A Grandah, a lord is a Laird…. And the list goes on… There Scottish…. Bit like Tasmanians 😂😂😂😂

hahaha very true!

We call them Lochs because we are not English Why not ask the English to call their lakes Lochs

That's a great suggestion! Which word of the two was the first spoken in the languages based on time? I have so many questions haha (p.s. I hope you know I am joking about Scots calling it a lake, I love the Scottish language and culture).

Hi Glenn, Thanks so much for watching and commenting, I am so glad you enjoyed it and hope it brought back some awesome memories for you. I hope your son enjoys his time in the area too.

Hahaha well if castles excite you then you're going to be in the right place, there are soooo many of all ages and restoration levels. & GF is easy to buy in the grocery stores (Warburton's Tiger Loaf is the bomb-diggity!) & easier in the UK than in Aus, but buying it out on the go is hard, so organisation is key!

Thank you! We are so glad we got a few days of nice weather to explore, it really does help with the mood haha!

hahaha oh dear!

At least you never got the Earthquakes like there getting around the Hunter at the moment..

Has there been a few recently?

@ yeah was another one early this week I think it was.. 4. Something magnitude..

😲🤔 interesting!

thanks!

Yes that's the one. We were there just a few weeks before it happened 😲

There are idiots in every country unfortunately

there sure are!

hahaha, that's cheating! You don't count then :-P

@@OverlandExposure Just to clarify the UK should be minus 10 15 20 degrees the only reason it is not is because the Gulf Stream runs down the west coast we are only 250 miles off the Arctic cycle But I suppose that is why the UK is so lush and green we get a lot of rain instead of snow

Holiday homes are a problem in areas all around the world, but if they are managed well by owners, councils, guests they can be a fantastic attribution to communities. It is all a balance and management. We travel full time and to a budget, having airbnb with our own kitchen and space for our daughter is much better for us as we couldn't travel full time with only hotels as our accommodation, it wouldn't work. We spend money in the community, share our adventures and bring life to everywhere we visit. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@OverlandExposure unfortunately in many places around the world, they have destroyed communities. The lack of effective measures to stop the tide of Airbnb has made the situation far worse. Many areas are now taking measures to restrict Airbnb heavily as any economic benefits are far outweighed by the harm they cause

As Aussies, this doesn't mean much to me... I just know it's not known for the best weather! We do compare our latitude distance from the equator in the UK to places in Aus, just obviously north and south of it.

A dishwasher is a nice luxury but as I said in the vid no big deal, lived for many many years without one and still do. And yes, 100% sure there was no washing machine, I always look in every cupboard and behind every door, & double checked the listing. & The weather, it was beyond atrocious for summer and for weeks on end, we thought it was funny how bad it was.

Yes, it's crazy! I was going to include a pic of what it was meant to look like so people could see the difference but forgot 🤦‍♀️ So why didn't they use Ribblehead for HP?

My bad - typo or speech too?

It is such a beautiful place even in the rain :) Glad you enjoyed it!

They were cool those ones! We loved our time in Yorkshire!

🤣🤣 I'm not sure if I'd be opposed to that or not 🤔

@@OverlandExposure don’t blame you with weather like that, Daniel’s description was the best 🤣

Haha I know right! I was being too optimistic and PC 🤣

🤣🦘

Starlink Mini is a great option for less power and less space, even a little cheaper. We haven't tested it ourselves for effectiveness but we haven't heard any bad reports on it so we think it is another great option.

Haha thank you! But no we don't think so 🤣

@@OverlandExposure Hahaha! :P

Actually it is free to park at the main area. It's not the money, it's the scam. Dressed up as police and directing you into their private parking lot like they are an official so you pay them. No lack of local knowledge & no ignorance on our part. IT WAS A SCAMMER PRETENDING TO BE A POLICE OFFICER WHEN HE IS NOT!
