We are a young at heart couple in our fifties enjoying early retirement and life in general. We have just completed the full 500 mile Camino Frances and are now travelling for the winter in Asia taking in Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia. We try to post a new travel video each week if we can and have a wide and varied back catalogue on our channel covering walking, travelling, fixing stuff, cooking and most importantly having a laugh.
🇬🇧 Coronation Fruit Scones | Super EASY Recipe 🇬🇧
Here’s a simple fruit scone recipe for you to try at home. It takes less than ten minutes to prepare and bakes in 15 minutes, so it won’t take up a great deal of your time and you’ll get a fantastic reward for very little effort that the whole family will love.
Ingredients
280g (10oz) Self raising flour (sifted is better but not essential)
85g (3oz) unsalted butter, chilled
30g (1oz) caster sugar (normal granulated is fine if you don’t have caster sugar)
100g (3.5 oz) Dried fruit (I used sultanas)
1 tsp Baking powder
5 fl oz (¼ pint) of milk
Method
1. Into a mixing bowl, add flour and baking powder. Mix briefly together and then add butter. Rub together using fingertips until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add caster sugar and fruit and briefly mix again. Add most of the milk before gently folding with a spoon to combine. Add more liquid if required. Gently form in to a ball.
2. On a floured surface gently roll the dough until it is roughly 2.5 - 3 cm thick (one inch). Using a cutter, cut out discs and place them on to a lightly floured baking tray. Repeat the process with any left over dough until all the dough is used
3. Bake at 200°C (gas mark 6) for 12-15min, until pale golden. Cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes. Serve with your own favourite combination of butter or cream and jams. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.

*Welcome to Malaysia truly Asia good food, people beautiful beach, skyscrapers & others, Msian likes to lepak Mamak drink Teh Tarik Jom joining Malaysian 🇲🇾💙🧡♥️💙🇲🇾*
Living in Australia and I agree about the clothes I try and avoid anything that is a polyester blend as it’s way too hot
Delighted to have found your videos! We are heading to Cambodia by bike in November and Kampot is def on the list after watching your last video. 😀🚴🏻♂️🚴♀️
Welcome to Cambodia 🇰🇭
You have the wonderful life !
Extraordinary video of Bokor Hill Station.
It was very surreal being up there altogether
amazing KL guide, as a fellow Brit I loved the humour throughout...especially the plastic seats. Visiting KL next week and will be following that advice - you know they're a good sign ;)
Great recipe, thank you nice to see some cooking videos again
It's great to be back in the kitchen...!
Maybe some day you’ll be able to pronounce “Pai” correctly. “ ปาย “ hint: it’s a Thai word!
Welcome to Malaysia lepak2 drink TEH TARIK THE BEST
Great experience
So nice to follow your adventure, I enjoyed your movies. I'm starting in 2 weeks... Thanks a lot ❤
Buen Camino...😁
Wonderful tips! Sounds like you guys had an amazing trip. If you make it to NZ, reach out to Hien. Do you remember Jeannie (from Hawaii) from the Camino? She ran into her in NZ. Small world!
Bravo! Thank you. I just relived my Camino in 10 minutes.
Love it! Miss you guys :)
Love you two laughing away. So lovely
I think most pilgrims clearly haven’t heard of TH-cam. I live on the north route and every year I still see pilgrims with 85l expedition packs and wrong size shoes, despite hundreds of videos giving good advice. Osprey Talon 33 or similar is enough!
amazing. thanks a lot
Glad you liked it!
Bravo, a grand adventure it was
Great video, Mike!
Glad you enjoyed it. It must be close to the time when you planned to return to complete your last leg of the Camino. Unfortunately, I would say the last leg is less interesting and historic as the others; however, there will be many more pilgrims and lots of interesting people to meet on the way. Beware of anyone called Miguel who has a nice house to rent. We have great memories of our time together on the Camino and in Casa Miguel. Getting hosed down by the maid before swimming in the pool and then a superb meal......sooo much fun..!
amazing views
It truly was a great experience
Hope that you guys have had a good time travelling around Southeast Asia especially Malaysia.
We certainly did. You have such a beautiful country

Great vid Mike and Cheryl. Let us know when you’re planing the NZ trip and we’ll hook you up with all the info and maybe some free accommodation in Auckland and Wellington.

Welcome to Singapore!
I didn't understand what you said about having to buy a ticket in Vietnam in order to get our of Malaysia. What's that about?
Apparently it is a requirement of Malysian Immigration that visitors have a ticket to leave the country again when they enter. When we went to check in for the flight in Vietnam the airline would not check us in unless we had a ticket to get back out of Malaysia afterwards. They explained that if we didn't have one and they let us board the aircraft and we were refused entry to Malaysia they would be responsible for taking us back in to Vietnam. In order to do this I just went on to booking.com and booked the cheapest flight possible (£19 - no luggage -Penang to Singapore) They then let us board. Interestingly enough, when we got to Malaysia they did check we had accommodation booked and travel out of the country booked too. I was unable to change the flight with booking.com nor get a refund so we simply didn't show for the the flight and eventually flew out a week or two later. It made no difference as we were stamped in for 90 days. Hope that helps.
@@mikeandcheryl Interesting. Thanks for the info.
Belated welcome to Singapore! Glad you’ve had a pleasant experience. Come back again, and try to experience and/or discover the lesser manicured bits of Singapore!
Thanks for the tips!
