    I totally understand how negative and thoughtless comments are so hurtful to you both but I would urge you to focus on the overwhelming number of positive and appreciative messages from those of us who know how hard you work to include us in your wonderful travels.
    Thank you.

    Loved this one Bob, Burrs is our local site and it was nice to see the local area from someone else’s perspective, I was born and brought up in Ramsbottom and then worked in Bury until my recent retirement. We haven’t stayed at Burrs as it always felt very close to home but I think that may change now and we will give it a go. It was nice to get the chance to thank you and Jenny in person when we saw you at Southport last Sunday as we filled up with water on our arrival. We really appreciate all the work you both put into your videos and we always find ourselves watching your “arriving at” when we are going to a new to us site, finding them really helpful. Your guides to what you consider to be essential and nice to have was very useful when we were kitting out our Motorhome and everything we purchased has been great. Lovely to see Poppy and Tara too who always look to be having the very best time.

    Hi Bob, Jenny and the girls, just watching the train reminded me of when i was a young boy in the early 60s, standing on the railway bridge being engulfed by steam and smoke, happy days and i could actually recall the smell.

Great video Bob as always with very interesting content, thinking of booking into the campsite and the train journey, how long did it take to walk to the station from your van Bob? x

    Hi Bob & Jenny - I find your videos so informative and entertaining - many thanks for taking the time to do them. Just a quick question, you mentioned you used Vantrue dashcam - is this something you would recommend - as I am considering getting a sat nav with a dash cam in it? Plus, would you GoPro not act as a dashcam for evidence if ever needed? Many thanks Sally N.B. at our last campsite we saw two Starfire motorhomes :-)

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  2 года назад +1

      I did a video on the Vantrue ruclips.net/video/BpGcXTrWlic/видео.html
      I think a GoPro would be an expensive dashcam, and it's not really designed to be on all the time, would tend to overheat. Also GoPros tend to produce 8 minutes long files on 1080p, dashcam use a shorter 3 min format, more suitable for finding the footage you need. We use a remote control to switch the GoPro on and off, so I don't end up with huge amounts to edit. As for Sat Navs with built in dashcams, I've never tried one, but think that devices that do just one job well, should be better than devices doing multiple job like mobile phones with sat nav or sat navs with dashcams.

    Hi guy's...another great vlog. What i would like to say though is, as nice as the site is...I think £36 a night is too expensive if all you are doing is parking up for a night and using a little electric. I guess it's a nice one off stay destination if you are interested in the steam train. We have done it ourselves and enjoyed it, but we couldn't justify making it a regular acurrence at those prices.
    We stayed at a sight last year in Northumberland that was £9 a night cheaper , and it had an outside heated swimming pool, bar & cafe.and entertainment....also next to the coast.
    Alot of folk buy motorhomes, buy all the equipment so they are self sufficient...so they only need a safe parking space and a little electric to charge their gear up....too many sites I think are taking advantage. What do you guy's think?

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  2 года назад +1

      We think it is a great site and yes £36 a night is a bit steep for some. Don't forget last year VAT was 12.5%, now 20% so the Chancellor now takes £6 of that nightly fee now. As for a little bit of electricity, we were charging up all our equipment, cameras, phones and mics etc, using our own showers so other people could use the six showers in the crowed facility block as the site was full. Plus it means we don't hold others up at the Motorhome Service Point. So, perhaps, we were thinking of others, to quote a phrase.

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  2 года назад +1

      That little hobby railway was founded as the East Lancs Railway back in 1987. Hopefully the life of some Welsh coal mines will be extended, until new supplies can be found and we can continue to enjoy our heritage.
