Skipton looks lovely x close to us just nowhere I’ve thought to go x long nights are awful but will soon be spring again x keep entertaining us x we love the vlogs x loves to you n the big fella xx

Looks like you guys had a really nice time 😊👍

Hi Mandy, I send you a big virtual hug - my partner has to have an ECG and then a telephone call on the 16th December and I am fingers crossed I want them to say he can go back to work so I will wait and see . Bit low as well as my work colleagues funeral is on Friday xx❤❤

I liked Skipton, stayed in the same car park but I went over to see the lovely lady at Captain Jellyfish to by some dungarees 😀

Awe we love Skipton, lived there for two years while my husband worked in Leeds, only a few weeks ago we were dwn for a visit staying in a beautiful little cottage, it's only a few hours away from us in Scotland we try to get back as often as we can love it x

Looks like the wilderness

Knowing you and your research of alternative natural meds, which I find helpful, you'll already know. But have a look into turmeric. Lots of research on it's anti inflammatory properties, especially when taken with black pepper. Definitely kinder to the tum than NSAIDs like Ibuprofen. X

10:36 😂😂

9:43 Even the young swans give the impression that they own the waterway 😊

Bit D. Not bit. Sorry.

Mandy, we’ve been following you and John for years now and have enjoyed it all. Please consider a Vegan diet, which would be far more healthy for you and most likely your condition. There’s evidence for that if you do some research. Start one meal at a time. Sincere best wishes and thoughts.

As the saying that I just made up goes “don’t cry over smashed eggs”😂… don’t get down Mandy, stay positive & strong… sending virtual hugs your way x

Well, I didn't realise how nice skipton centre is. I stayed at a hotel on the outskirts years ago for the night, but after a gourmet meal with drinks rounding up a day touring on the M/bike, bed was the best option. Now we're chugging around in the van, it looks like an appealing stop for a night or two. Thanks for the tip off, and thank for a nice update. Sorry to hear your arthritis is playing up, thats a real knock back after all you've been through recently. Take care now. 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🇮🇪

Enjoyed watching & great video as per usual 😁 … take care x

Kudos to you Mandy for getting out & about on your own catching up with friends & family but I bet it was lovely to meet back up again with John ❤

Hari Om I do like a boat ride... Skipton now on my list! YAM xx

Mandy, if you're suffering so much pain , especially through the night, have you asked to be checked for fibromyalgia? X

Good to see you enjoying yourself, Mandy. Skipton is one of my favourite places. They have a fantastic art show if you are ever there again. Art in the Pen takes over the Auction Mart two or three times a year. ilona

Oh how nice, that looked amazing. ❤❤ xx

❤

We love Skipton. Great park-up and lovely friendly town. Great food as you said X

It was amazing

Hi there from Australia. I understand the arthritis thing. It’s a pain getting older, but carry on regardless 😂😂😂😂😘😘😘😘

You guys need a narrowboat to complement your travelvlogs - the best of both worlds!

I've been to Skipton many, many times over my 70 years. Sometimes, I used to cycle there along the canal towpath. Other favourite haunts are such as Wycoller, Bolton Abbey, Hebden Bridge, Holmfirth and Haworth. Does help when I live fairly close by 😂

Thanks for sharing, Skipton is now on my list. Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Mandy so nice to see you are getting better.Skipton looks lovely. Enjoy your travels. X

Lovely video Mandy. That boat trip looked fantastic. Have to look it up. Keep Loving the Adventure

Love Skipton, but preferably in the summer months. We stayed at Niffany Farm which has all the facilities, a nice view of the canal and is walkable into Skipton. I think you need a bit of sunshine on those achy joints Mandy ☀️

Hi Mandy, Hi John, Mandy, it is really lovely to see you looking a lot brighter with colour in your cheeks 🙂 & so glad you both enjoyed your afternoon tea boat trip take care Lin 💖

Your in a beautiful part of England Mandy I envy you and John. I used to work for a Boatyard down south that had 4 Trip boats I was one of the turnaround engineers stroke Trip Skippers and I loved taking the old folk out on the Cream Tea runs, we also did wedding parties in the evenings with a small disco onboard, great times… stay well Mandy and all the best to John 😊

👍🚐😎

The Dales are lovely in nice weather - A few spots we used to enjoy that are worth checking out next time - Grassington is very nice, our dog Jet loved it there - nice walk by the river from the main car park. Nice walk by the river at Kettlewell too - parking by the Garage on the way in - when you are more active there is a good walk up to 'The Split' from the Garage - amazing views from the top. Kilnsey has some nice walks (and maybe bike ride) . Hope the sun continues to shine so you can get out and about a bit more and avoid cabin fever 🙂

Since I've been watching people enjoying life in van,s and cars, I've realised that if I could reset my life I,d of learnt to drive and got myself a van and a job that I could of done on a computer and just travel and be as free as possible

Skipton is a lovely place, they even have a pork pie shop that sells hot pork pies . One of my favourite places , Bolton abbey think they have acouple of free camper bays there . The Dales is a beautiful place.

So nice to have a blog from Mandy. That town looked nice and the boat ride was a great idea. I would have a hard time dealing with all of the rainy and grey days that I think you have. Of course we have them too but perhaps not as much. Look forward to the next video.

Excellent scenery, excellent food, excellent music, Epic.know where you are coming from with arthritis pain in fact only this morning me and the dog were comparing notes on who had the worst arthritis pain. You seem to be a little brighter every week petal.

Really loved the documentary and you both continue to inspire me to be brave with life decisions. Great to see you looking well too

mandy that looked like a lovely boat trip xx

good see you got vlog on channel keep up the great vlogs thanks for share on channel

Skipton looks lovely. Noticed the EV chargers in the carpark 💚. Seeing the ginger cat made me sad. Our ginger farm cat had to be collected by the charity who we adopted her from last week. She had lost a lot of weight and wobbly. No ‘pets’ at all here now, and I am missing the cuddles 😢

Hi..copper bracelets help in regards aches and pains I have worn one for years and no more aches and pain. Regards lyn(NZ)

Great thing you weren't along the east coast of Sweden these past two days, we only got 40 cm of snow and close to hurricane winds. I think it's safe to say that winter really is here...

Your cream tea cancel boat trip looked lovely. Hope you didn't get snowed on today.

That canal boat trip looked fantastic, with lovely grub ❤

Ant do without with Starlink. I’ve got ver 2 and love it. Best thing I got for my MH

Hi ya

Ah Slaithwaite - Mum is from a few villages over (Meltham), I think those in the village call it Slowett, those nearby Slath-wait. You seem to be following my path with the B9 & B12 deficiency, that was me 10 years or so ago. I'm wondering if its a common menopause thing? Though it might be more a bad diet thing for me then! I read recently that gas and air does something to B12 too. I periodically have to have the B9, and I take a B12 melt in the mouth nugget every day - makes a difference to my energy levels and brain fog. I know of lots of people with CFS/ME who have the B12 shots and it makes a huge difference to their symptoms. You need B12 and B9 for Iron absorption/red blood cells etc. My top tip is eat less carbs and lots more protein and veggies and a lot of your symptoms will improve through menopause and beyond. I've found this out over the last 10 years - the more excess weight you have on (I've lost 30kg since then) the worse the symptoms are - especially hot flashes, night sweats, energy, muscle aches, mood changes, brain fog etc. I've also found I sleep better when I eat better and keep the less healthy stuff for treats, not every day 🙂A good GP is worth their weight in gold at this stage of our lives. I get blood test results the next day via an app the GP uses, I can also get my (brain MRI) scan summary and images a few days after I have them too, though I have to request them 🙂 Hope the B12 shots give you a boost ❤

Great to see the old you shine thru x love the new air fryer x so versatile x where is the Xmas market you are going to at x hope to see you at shows next year x luvs to you both xx

Hari OM When buying my Tower, it was during a sale on the larger size - making it cheaper than the size you have... I'm glad I opted for that, albeit a slightly more cumbersome unit. Of course, ALL airfryers are also toasters, bakers, grillers etc. Chefree seems to think most folk don't know that... but it is a very neat looking bit of kit! I love my yeast flakes - I particularly like mashing them in with avocado, a bit of cream cheese and some Worcestershire sauce, spread on toast. mmmmmmmmmmmmm YAM xx
