    Thanks for joining me on this journey everyone. It was such an amazing week and I made so many memories I will never forget. I’m sure I will be back across the pond soon to make more videos and memories. Thanks for all the support on these videos and the rapid growth of my channel. It means more than the world. Gonna take a break from RUclips for a few days so I’ll see you all when I get back.

      Lads, at your age a week was right as you weren't sure what you were going to see or do.
      Now you know make sure your next visit here is longer. I hope you'll fit Nottingham into your schedule as Robin Hood will want to show you around our great city and up to Sherwood forest. 😂

Would love a vid from you and Will on your reflections of the trip if you were interested in doing that, sounds like you had a great time overall (and hopefully you were totally put off Scotland and would be up for a repeat visit, maybe Radio Forth and Radio Clyde could try and equal the excellent hospitality YO1 showed you!)

    York is an amazing city and for me as a Norwegian, it's even got some viking history as well, which is really cool. It's got the Yorvik Viking Museum (idk if you guys were there) and the story about how Scots and Englishmen didn't get along to the point where Scots had to knock on the wall to get through, is particularly interesting as I've got Scottish roots as well. I've been to York twice, in 2010 and 2013 respectively on study trips courtesy of the University of Bergen and I have tons of awesome memories from these trips. I recognize the fountain, the cathedral and the church ruins you guys saw and it feels like being right back in York! I sadly never went to the top of Clifford's Tower but the view from up there does indeed look amazing! Hopefully someday when I go back to York I'll check it out because I definitely want to come back to this amazing city! You ate some amazing food it seems as well and the locals seemed really nice too! And how cool that the radio station interviewing you also showed you the sights of York and you look really good repping their shirt! I've bookmarked their website and will definitely give their radio station a listen. It's been a fun experience getting to come along with you and Will on your journey around the UK, you must be filled with so many memories and impressions from everything you've seen and done during your time in the UK! :)

Then they put the knife down and switch the fork to their right hand and eat the food.

    Great content Joel, stumbled on channel by mistake, short but packed with interesting clips, you appear mature beyond your years, your parents must be so proud, if half Americans are like you then the world is a better place, I have scrolled through some of your old content, it's on point, off the charts, look forward to future vlogs take care safe flight to 🇺🇸 USA from Stansted.

      @Nutrient-Gold 2 года назад +3

      @mary carver Not strictly true though is it? There's plenty of food that "Europeans" don't use cutlery for. For example, a bread appetiser in restaurants is normally broken by hand and dipped, in say, olive oil/balsamic vinegar. Pizzas are nornally eaten by hand. Plenty of finger food is eaten by hand. Burgers, Kebabs, Fried chicken etc . The list is extensive.
      What I do find funny/strange is how many Americans use cutlery. It's sometimes like watching a child first learning how to use them.

    The sunday roast looked liked a microwave meal with aunt bessies frozen Yorkshire puddings. You can tell by the slices there's not a big piece of roast beef in the kitchen. That meat was sliced by a machine in a factory & cooked weeks before you ate it.
    The radio guy with the sreet-food stall however, THAT was proper food.

    As an Englishman, I’ve really enjoyed watching you and Will experience and enjoy my country (and Scotland). I’m glad you had such a great time here and will be back in the not to distant future. The guys from YO1 Radio really looked after you, which was great to see and they made you very welcome. Before your U.K. visit Joel, I have to admit to only watching your vlogs intermittently, but when I heard that you were coming to the U.K., I wanted to see if it met with your expectations. Now your visit has come to an end, it seems to have exceeded them. Come for two weeks next time and see so much more. I feel as if I’ve really got to know you so much better and both you and Will come across as thoroughly nice guys who also happen to be incredibly polite. Your parents must be very proud.

    May I suggest an idea for a future reaction video for you.
    There must be something on here that shows how Americans use cutlery ( knife and fork ) compared to how British people use them, watching you guys trying to eat food is unbelievable, how you make a simple task look so complicated, difficult and
    messy.
    And you never know, you might learn a thing or two.

    Never will I tire of watching these videos, its sheer enjoyment, no bad language, manners, actions and from young fellas too its is quite miraculous! Talking manners though, maybe watch how we use our cutlery, don't fold your meat up like you are building a tower, use your knife to cut the meat and add to same what is on plate. Keep yorkshire pud on plate when it is with a meal and again add the food surrounding it to a piece of the yorkshire you have cut off! The holding in the hand bit is done when a yorkshire is sold 'on the street'! All your meals looked fab, especially the fish and chips with the exception that in the North West of England the fish would be cod not haddock. Mushy peas?? Oh these are a definite, lol, spread on slice of bread and butter with a couple of chips - bliss !! Come back soon boys and at some point make sure you visit an indoor northern food market - brilliant!

    Scapegoat Hill is a high-up village near Huddersfield on the edge of the Pennines. When the weather is clear and sunny, you can easily see the sun shining on York Minster, 40 miles away. It glows brightly on the horizon.
    I have enjoyed watching your travels in Britain very much. You and Will will be most welcome to return as soon as possible. You are both delightful people. I'd love to meet both of you, if I'm still alive. I'm 69, so don't leave it too long!

    So pleased you enjoyed York. As always said, us Northerners are a friendly bunch. Sunday dinner yes, not Sunday roast looked delicious. I believe the thing you called a chip was parsnip and the bacon wrapped around sausage is called pigs in blankets. Your potatoes were roast potatoes. Cover in hot fat/oil salt and roast in the oven. Some say par (part) boil first.

    • @darthwiizius
      @darthwiizius 2 года назад +10

      Yup part boil, drain then give 'em a little shake to rough them up and make the surfaces a bit gnarly to form the ultimate crisp shell with fluffy spud in the middle when you baste them in the hot meat fat from the roast and bung 'em in the oven while the meat rests.

      I never parboil the potatoes prior to roasting them, but always use duck or goose fat when cooking them, and I've only ever been complimented on them... They generally only take an hour on the floor of the oven whilst the meat is in. But cook them how you like them; as with a lot of these things, there is no right or wrong way...

How to spot an American in a restaurant....they cut their food with the knife, put the knife down, transfer the fork to their right hand. Dead giveaway. I know this because I was married to an American for 15 years but she did realise what a waste of effort it was. You should definitely edit a montage together of your entire trip. Don't care how long the finished video is, I'll watch it from start to finish. You guys are great ambassadors for your country. ✌️♥️🇬🇧

      @@brianlowes7325 social media has it's bad side, but Americans have been stifled of knowledge about the outside world for a long time. Their news is more about entertainment than a news program, they are brainwashed and indoctrinated into believing that the USA is the greatest country in the world and just accept it as the truth. But more and more of these young people are educating themselves in the way that Joel is. It's a wonderful thing.
