    If this is where you started, you were already a better video cutter of, and your enthusiasm completely overshadows what you are being self critical of. Love the Cistercians, real ‘come and have a go if you think you’re hard enough’ types. 👍🏻

    Interesting video. Didn't know anything about Kirkstall abbey despite going there a fair bit this summer. I wonder what the monks talked about together, as it must be the same each day with their routine being so rigid.
    You yourself are very engaging and have a great personality for hosting. Cant wait to see more!

    Hey - don't be so hard on yourself with the video quality stuff in your descriptions. These are much better than you think, and we all gotta learn somehow. Keep up the fun videos.

    Monks do not take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. They take vows of stability, conversion of manners and obedience

    Absolutely enjoyed it! By the way, if anyone is interested, there are several books one can get to explore similar prayers to the ones they said: the first is the Little Office of the Theotokos (or Blessed Virgin Mary), abbreviated as the Little Office or possibly just Office in older times; these are simplified lay prayers with Mary as a theme, though as always in these prayers God takes center stage. They can be obtained in English side-by-side with Latin at a higher quality and price; Latin was the language for prayer in those days.
    The illuminated manuscripts that were not the Bible often were of the Little Office, made for the very rich, like nobility, and comprise many of the illumined manuscripts that we have from that era today.

      that's is the rule of saint benedict. but cistercians/trappists are also known for the vow of silence. or, as they would put it: "solitude, contemplation and humility"

    Very interesting to learn more about Medieval Catholicism in England, as a Roman Catholic, it's not something I often hear about.
    Are you Catholic by the way? I wonder what's the current state of Catholicism in England... A friend of mine is from London and he's a Catholic convert from Anglicanism, but I know that historically the North was a bit more Catholic.
    Anyways, nice video! Cheers!

      @@CatherineWarr maybe we are catholic in history, but here there is a strong aversion to Catholicism too, especially amongst the old. I'm only 17 myself and became catholic from previously being Anglican a few years back, the insults and suspicion from my dad was great and demoralising

      ​@@daveunbelievable6313 That's interesting to know. I'm from the south of Brazil and I must say that neither my generation, nor that of my parents', have many prejudices against the protestants, specially since in my region it was mostly tied to German immigrants and we got along pretty well, for the most part. In some other areas of Brazil, though, specially in Rio and in the Northeast, I guess Protestantism was seen as the "religion of the foreigners", specifically the Dutch and the French, since they both tried to colonize certain parts of Brazil.
      Interestingly, there might be some prejudice growing against the Neopentecostal Christians in Brazil, but that's probably related to the fact that their churches tend to be quite loud and one of the churches took part in a corruption scandal in the government.

    I enjoyed your video and the genuine passion you seem to have for your local history, but just a minor note. The cut aways are very rapid-fire and it's kind of hard to process everything you're saying before moving on to the next tidbit. I'd recommend pacing yourself a bit more.
