    Hi guys 🤗 great to catch up with you tonight ❤ That sunset was spectacular, I said to Gary "it looks like a film set" just as you said it was like a movie set 🎥 The dryer was a bit dodgy, did seem a miracle it didn't combust! Thanks for sharing where corks come from, we had no idea. Lovely vlog, thank you, lots of love Julia and Gary ❤️

    That was one amazing sunset, such a shame you had to abandon the Portugal trip but better to be safe as you say. It looks like an fantastic trip but there is always another year. Thanks for some brilliant ideas for a year and a half time.

    Hi once again young Redders's . Managed to view over a distance of 210 miles . 20 minutes worth at Scotch Corner and finished off overlooking the Solway Firth but I'll swap places with you two . We will be in December . What did strike me was the number of days you have left . It's gone amazingly quick . Looking forward to the Spanish part . Turning out to be quite an adventure . Take care both and stay safe , love from the old Redders's xx

      @redsgotravels Yeah quite heartbreaking 💔 ist it & i can't believe that it's that hot in October it's quite bizarre!!😳😔 Can I ask a random question is there any law's in Europe for dogs in motorhomes as in seat belts as from your vlogs i can see wilf is in a proper car seat!! As just out of interest as we have a cockapoo so was just wondering what the situation was not that we have a Motorhome yet kind regards Dave 😀 👍🏻

    • @redsgotravels
      @redsgotravels  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Dave , the law is dogs must be suitably restrained 🐾🐾 so any firm anchor point , dog crate etc will work , keeps you and them safe in the event of a sudden stop 💖 we are lucky we have 2 rear seatbelts , so we have a splitter on one seatbelt attachment to hold 2 dogs, and one on the other side, they all have harnesses too 🙂 our last van had no rear belts , I screwed an anchor point into a solid point under the seats ❤️🙂

Amazing info on the boats. Nice swerve Redder’s re the folding of the washing 🤣 I had no idea that cork came from the bark of a tree 😮 although I do feel sorry for the bare trees, however the corks are necessary for my wine 🍷 so they are forgiven !! 😂 great video guys ♥️ xxx
