Hi another great video, just a quick question changing subject for second, what is the law on sleeping in a layby, i know truckers can, coz of their driving hours etc, but i read somewhere we cant stay over night in a layby? your advice please x
You spoil us with 2 videos in a row, how nice 😊. Have to say the Lake District is quite beautiful, those drone shots were top notch. Thank you for taking us along 🙏
There won't be many places in the world 🌎 nicer than the lakes..& Keswick is quite possibly as nice as anywhere you could ever wish to be..the views over Derwent water are incredible..👍
I just love these quaint towns you are visiting . Abdolutely beautiful. I am constantly in awe of the beauty of the landscapes. And, you always find the best pastry shops! Loving the UK. Hope to get there some day.
Glad to see that you were blessed with some blue sky. Good move with the Air B&B though, you’ve certainly taken a battering on this trip! Lovely surprise to hear you mention my Kirkstone Pass video. Thank you! 😊 x
Thanks for another interesting vlog, your history info is great! I agree with you Ken, today's young people don't seem to want to work! They want Cash to fall from the clouds !!
I am always in awe of the beauty of your country. Those mountains are gorgeous. The drone shots as always are my favorite. An air bnb sounds just right for you both at this stage of your journey. Thank you for a peaceful beautiful trip. Mary
Ha ha i love how Ken swoops in like a Kestrel at the last minute to order a custard tart in Bryson's while Carol attempts to pay for the bread rolls.😆😆
Absolutely Beautiful! The video reminds me of areas in Wisconsin and the foot hills in Montana. I really wish I could go to the UK. But I don't think I could drive there. I so agree about young people. I use to waitress starting at 6am and cooked till 2. Then spent 2nd shift in a factory. Now they don't know there is a 6am.
Lovely video Ken 👊 Carol 😘 Winter in the Lakes is a wonderful time of year x and a bonus of few bustling Crowds ? I was in the hospitality trade for many years,Pubs Chef/Wine waiter etc 👊 Take Care Both Travel Safe ATB 🐾👊🚐👍😘
Great video 👍 gorgeous scenery once again was lovely to see. I must say those cakes looked delicious 😋 I'm a sucker for cake's 🤣🤣 hope your three night stay was what you needed at our age we need some comfort every now and then 🙌 looking forward to your next video 👌🤗
truly breathtaking scenery!! love all the snow topped mountains, definitely on my bucket list to visit the lake District. loved the drone footage. hope all is well, take care of yourselves
Ooooh I’ve always wanted to go to Booths’ is it as nice as they say? One day Paul and I will make it to The Lakes, my it does look beautiful, especially when the sun shines! Yet another wonderful vlog, thanks guys! ❤️🐚
Hari OM What a treat to get this next ep so soon after #10. Lots of delicious scenery (and cakes for Ken) and some halfway decent weather. I saw that Campervanya outing - it looked just the ticket, even in winter! YAM xx
Wow! Two to catch up on! Thank you. Just back from our trip in Ketchup. What have I learnt? That pee bottles are a must have. And that you are both pros at living in a camper van on your travels. It certainly isn’t easy and I was forever wondering where I’d put things 🫢😂. Still I thoroughly enjoyed it and I’ve learned a lot from watching your channel. Thank you Carol and Ken 😊
Loved the vlog great scenery and shots. A nice relaxing treat to watch on Sunday evening after the Jubilee weekend. Went to the lakes a few years ago stayed in hotel in Windemere had a mini bus tour all around incorporating a visit to Beatrix Potters house. Thanks Guys. x
We love Keswick. We ate in Bryson’s a few weeks back it was expensive but the food was good. Our favourite place to eat was LRB, Lake Road Brunch just by Hope Park, excellent food, very friendly service, very reasonably priced.
Greetings from Australia, although I’m currently in the UK! How nostalgic to see the Castlerigg stone circle. I’ve visited there twice and hope to be back in the Lakes District in another month or so. I’ve got my fingers crossed that I’m able to visit the pencil museum this time as it was closed due to flooding the last time I visited
Wow. Thanks for the memories. So nice to see Keswick again and all the old haunts and areas we used to walk Blue as a pup. Loved the drone footage of the snow topped fells too. And boy, think you both deserved as you called it "a flop" and we hope it did the trick 🤔🐕🚙
The weather turned out in you favour eventually and it made the lake district look the way that I remember it. Lovely shops that you found and a bakery that would be too rich for my waistline. Looking forward to the air b+b chillout.
Last time I was in the Lake District was in 1978, stayed in Cumbria. I love those quirky little streets. Yum iced finger's 😋. You've been in the war's carol, bit like myself with our aches and pains. XX ❤️💙
I’m afraid I am one of those nutters who goes up in all weather and in fact do more in winter than summer because dealing with the conditions is half the fun. Give me driving rain rather than flies any day!
I once went camping in glenriding ,gilside farm camping site then attempted helvalen and failed lol my legs went and had to escorted down by two very nice gents lol happy memories tho .great video of keswick and carol some very nice photos 😀
You will be amazed visit Norway or Sweden. Here its freedom to roam mostly everywhere outside towns. Up to two days you can stay anywhere camping, and if you go further into the wilderness you can stay as long as you like. We even have camping spots with free toilets and power. I think freedom of roam is the same in the UK, but only in scotland.
I love your photographs ypu could print these,frame twm and sell on ypur site I know many people who would love one on their wall to look.at every day.Would love to see film of more wildllie .What a beautiful name for a park.Hope ! X
Lovely video, love the drone shots and the way you use it. Lovely smooth panning. Good to see Carol seems to be in better spirits Ken. Don't you just hate it when you get caught in those fudge shops? 🤩🤩. Jee I have never seen damage like that from moles before.
Yeh, still trying to figure out Ken's white pepper, thinkin salt [the bad stuff]?? Lake District Beatrix Potter.Military Istallations from WW2 patrolled by the Home Guard, who patrolled the lakes as well. 4:42in Intrigueing boats. 16 tun, decent size rock. Seems like you had a rockin good times, in the Lake District. Always wanted to go there, prefer the drier English Summer there. Seems like its sped up driving but, the talking isn't. Trying to het away overnights now the weathers getting warmer here, bit dif in an Xtrail than the Iload. Nice goin m8s stay vertical Eh!
Good idea with the air bnb. Vanlife is great, but not always. Hope Carol is feeling better now. Are you heading into France this year? We're near Dijon now. Weather is lovely.
Love your van but having said that I have a question. Why don’t you ever raise the roof. I understand that when it’s cold you don’t so that it stays warmer. But during the day when your inside and especially when cooking or tidying up or just staying inside relaxing or something, I think it’s much more comfortable to have it up. Oh yes, not to forget saying, loved the video 😄.
Ken, here in America the COVID has got people that collected unemployment not going back to work because the assistance checks are more than their paychecks. I started work when I was 12 years old. I’m retired. Ow and 73 years old and was never without a job until I retired.
I agree Larry. The great lockdown has also made millions give up work on the basis that we never know when our time is up so you might as well enjoy it whilst we can.
Wouldn’t it be fantastic if the National Trust let people stay in their car parks maybe for a maximum of 48 hours £10 a night something like that I’m sure they make a fortune out of it

You’re welcome Willa. It is always a pleasure to visit the Lake District ☺️
Great photo of the circle. Carol has a good eye for photographic composition.
Thank you Samantha. I had a good teacher ☺️ (from Carol)

Very lovely video. Hope you both have a wonderful three day break. Have a wonderful evening. Take care.
@@susenjarvis8281 thank you ❤️
Great video again. Lake District looks fab. Take care.
Glad to see that you were blessed with some blue sky. Good move with the Air B&B though, you’ve certainly taken a battering on this trip! Lovely surprise to hear you mention my Kirkstone Pass video. Thank you! 😊 x

Never one to miss out on a custard tart ☺️
What a wonderful tour! Now I really want to be in the Lake district. But I will be busing and boating it.
A great place to visit by any means 🙂
Absolutely Beautiful! The video reminds me of areas in Wisconsin and the foot hills in Montana. I really wish I could go to the UK. But I don't think I could drive there. I so agree about young people. I use to waitress starting at 6am and cooked till 2. Then spent 2nd shift in a factory. Now they don't know there is a 6am.
Your roads are much better than ours for sure 👍
Yes love watching your video keep up the good work 👏
Thanks Eamonn, you must have nearly seen them all by now 😉😁
Love Derwentwater from the Borrowdale side
Thank you for a lovely relaxing trip to the Lakes. Just what is needed after feeling Jubileed out! Some familiar places there. Best wishes Sarah.
You’re welcome Sarah. Hope you had a great Jubilee weekend 🇬🇧😀👍
The snow capped fells look so beautiful against the blue sky.
Castlerigg is our favourite spot
Great video again beautiful scenery safe driving.
The lake is beautiful the hills & countryside is gorgeous. The town is lovely.💖 Pamela
Lovely video Ken 👊 Carol 😘 Winter in the Lakes is a wonderful time of year x and a bonus of few bustling Crowds ? I was in the hospitality trade for many years,Pubs Chef/Wine waiter etc 👊 Take Care Both Travel Safe ATB 🐾👊🚐👍😘
I did the same Stephen and then switched to the police for the pension. 👍

Nice editing 👍🍻

Beautiful lakeside and country scenery. How delightful to get another video so soon
A beautiful view from the lake for sure. Beautiful snow capped mountains.
Beautiful snow covered hills. Great drone footage to see the area. 💚
Thanks Michele 🙂
Such amazing drone footage of country side!
The scenery is getting better and better if that’s possible! Awesome!
Nice vlog Ken and Carol. Good drone footage Ken. Thanks for sharing.
Ooooh I’ve always wanted to go to Booths’ is it as nice as they say? One day Paul and I will make it to The Lakes, my it does look beautiful, especially when the sun shines! Yet another wonderful vlog, thanks guys! ❤️🐚
Booths is nice. Like Waitrose 🙂
What a beautiful area, and I love the sound of the skylark when you were at the stones, or maybe you added that, still it was lovely.
Lovely views, guys, and a beautiful photo of the stone circle, Carol. I really love the Lake District. Hope the air b & b helped Carol's shoulder. 😘x
Thanks Kit. We love the Lake District but I’m afraid we are only fair weather walkers ☺️
@@LifeistooshortCK Haha, well, I'm only a fair weather anything-er. 😉😉
Hari OM
What a treat to get this next ep so soon after #10. Lots of delicious scenery (and cakes for Ken) and some halfway decent weather. I saw that Campervanya outing - it looked just the ticket, even in winter! YAM xx
Another really enjoyable vlog. You both do them so well. Take care and enjoy the rest of your visit to Cumbria ❤️
Thanks Lindsay 🙂
Love the stone circles! I visited a couple places on Orkney as well as maes Howe. Fascinating history on those monuments
Wow! Two to catch up on! Thank you. Just back from our trip in Ketchup. What have I learnt? That pee bottles are a must have. And that you are both pros at living in a camper van on your travels.

Glad you had a great time away in Ketchup and we were able to pass on some of our experience. Hope it’s not too long until your next adventure 😀
Great shots taken with the drone and the music was spot on as well.
Great video hope the three Day stay helped you both to Rest take care
Loved the vlog great scenery and shots. A nice relaxing treat to watch on Sunday evening after the Jubilee weekend. Went to the lakes a few years ago stayed in hotel in Windemere had a mini bus tour all around incorporating a visit to Beatrix Potters house. Thanks Guys. x

How nostalgic to see the Castlerigg stone circle. I’ve visited there twice and hope to be back in the Lakes District in another month or so. I’ve got my fingers crossed that I’m able to visit the pencil museum this time as it was closed due to flooding the last time I visited
We have never been to the pencil museum so would be interested to know what it is like. Enjoy the rest of your trip 😀👍
Wow. Thanks for the memories. So nice to see Keswick again and all the old haunts and areas we used to walk Blue as a pup. Loved the drone footage of the snow topped fells too. And boy, think you both deserved as you called it "a flop" and we hope it did the trick 🤔🐕🚙
You can find out tonight if it worked 😁👍
The weather turned out in you favour eventually and it made the lake district look the way that I remember it. Lovely shops that you found and a bakery that would be too rich for my waistline. Looking forward to the air b+b chillout.
It’s too rich for my waistline as well.
Last time I was in the Lake District was in 1978, stayed in Cumbria. I love those quirky little streets. Yum iced finger's 😋. You've been in the war's carol, bit like myself with our aches and pains. XX ❤️💙
Hope you recover soon
@@LifeistooshortCK Thank you and you as well carol. Xx ❤️💙
Ooh all those hills I’ve not been up for ages. Must plan a trip.
Make sure it’s when the weather is more conducive to walking. We didn’t do much at all on this trip 🌧😕
I’m afraid I am one of those nutters who goes up in all weather and in fact do more in winter than summer because dealing with the conditions is half the fun. Give me driving rain rather than flies any day!
Fingers crossed that her shoulder feels better after the rest in the B & B.
All is good now 👍
@@LifeistooshortCK great. Glad to hear that.
I once went camping in glenriding ,gilside farm camping site then attempted helvalen and failed lol my legs went and had to escorted down by two very nice gents lol happy memories tho .great video of keswick and carol some very nice photos 😀
Thanks Neil. We did make it up Helvellyn a few years back but couldn’t face Striding Edge 😱
lol, you remind me of a detective out of a detective show something like Inspector Frost walking down the road in your green waterproof LOL
Well I was a detective for a few years 👍

Glad you enjoyed it Rupert. Carol is always a sucker for fudge or chocolate 🍫 😍
Oh crikey Carol, first your shoulder, next your knee. What are you like! 😢
OMG I was a grill chef in Wimpy bar, late 70s for 3years in Northampton.
Haha, it’s a small world Richard 😀👍

@@gregbolitho9775 those boats take tourists on trips around the lake. Great fun 🙂👍
💜
I was a grill chef in a wimpy bar too
Small world 😁
Very pretty and the only thing i do not like about England, is there are always people around wherever you go.
Thankfully there are still some spots where you can be totally isolated and enjoy the countryside in peace.
Good idea with the air bnb. Vanlife is great, but not always.
Hope Carol is feeling better now.
Are you heading into France this year? We're near Dijon now. Weather is lovely.
Funny you should ask that. We have been in France for the last 3 1/2 weeks. Far too hot for me in Dijon you sun lovers 😁👍 Have fun.
@@LifeistooshortCK great cant wait to see video's thanks to you both
Love your van but having said that I have a question. Why don’t you ever raise the roof. I understand that when it’s cold you don’t so that it stays warmer.

All fine now, thanks Stephanie 🙏❤️
Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, Tell me , How can I watch you in order from your first video ?, I'm rubbish with tec 🤔😊👍, Thank You xx
Hi Lynn, we have a playlist called Everything from Day One 🙂👍
Wouldn’t it be fantastic if the National Trust let people stay in their car parks maybe for a maximum of 48 hours £10 a night something like that I’m sure they make a fortune out of it
What was the reason for the stone circles if I may ask?
It’s thought they were used to mark the seasons according to the sun.
@@LifeistooshortCK thanks.
Young people especially where I live wannabe gangsters as a career LOL
