    That was amazing footage of the cliffs and chasms and your drone was faithful to the end. Back in the day, most things that needed repairing was the best option as they usually lasted longer than expected. Today is very much a throw away things when they are done. A new drone awaits and if you get the same amount of miles from it, then it's all good 👍.

    • @LifeistooshortCK

    Hi Carol and Ken, really enjoyed all your blogs on the Isle of Man. Looks a lovely place to visit. The background music while you walked through the chasms fitted the feeling of danger. When you went near the edge it was a clever drone shot going out to sea..The baps were very generous with the kipper and crab. Thanks again for sharing your travels. 😀👍

    Yet again an amazing bit of filming, not that it takes you 25 minutes to put together ,it must take hours of editing. I have loved every episode there hasnt been any that have dissapointed. This one a few facts :-
    Blue Point Observation was for the Bombing Range that was used at sea during the cold war they used the offshore bombing range and had RAF staff stationed on the island observing what went on . They also noted if any bombs unexploded so they would then ask for help in getting them blown up.
    Point of Ayre lighthouse when I was a child could be visited and I spent a few times up that until I became scared of heights.
    Many thanks for all your amazing work and fantastic advertising for the island.
    regards John

    I'd been fancying kippers for ages and about a month ago I got some of those 'boil in the bag' ones with the pat of butter. MMmmmm!! sorted my craving out properly. Now though you've started me off again! and I'm on my pre-Christmas diet (so I can eat loads over the festivities). I might slip off the wagon soon... those chasms frightened the life out of me too. Another great film, thank you.

I don’t think I could go to the chasms, my legs were trembling watching on TV I would end up on my hands and knees crawling in the dust. There was some fabulous drone footage though!

    If you go again I'd recommend you get a kipper bap from the kiosk at the end of the promenade near the harbour bridge. He fries them for you as you watch, not microwaved and you can't beat the flavour! By the way, the crab might have tasted better if you'd had it before having the strong flavoured kippers!

    The hut on the seaside was an old coastguard lookout. Alongside is a wartime concrete lookout post - there were 2 big RAF airfields at Jurby and Andreas, and all of the northern Ayres were littered with related buildings (some of which survive). I recall being at the lookout there many years ago, when just a lad, when the King's Cup Air Race was held at Jurby. I was helping out and it was one the checkpoints. The pilots were excited by the low-flying restrictions being waived. We had to look down as the aircraft skirted the coastline, and at least one (an old Tiger Moth biplane) had to climb a bit just to make sure its wheels cleared a stone wall! The national aerobatics championships were held at the same at Jurby, and I was sent at one stage to look for a German (or Swiss) pilot. I found him the long-gone Jurby Airport Hotel (housed in a wartime wooden building). He was busy using an early video game machine where you played the part of a WW1 fighter pilot....obviously better than the real thing!

It already contains the mince within the sauce so just add pasta and top with cheese 🍝 Delish !

    Several videos back you guys kept saying, "Let's go to the Chasms. Oh, the weather is too awful to go now" and you would show an old stone building (the cafe 18:26) off in the distance with the word "CHASMS" on the side of the building.
    I couldn't understand the excitement for an old building that seemed to have no connection to the word "Chasms", which in definition is a deep gap in the ground, abyss-like. 😄
    Well, now I clearly see the reason for the excitement. I'm so glad you were able to show us the beauty of it, it is terrifying though - some paths were a little too close to the "edge of abyss" for me. You definitely can't be doing two things at once on those trails. Such beauty. 😊💖

    Definitely shouldn't have watched this vlog when I was hungry. OMG, I would kill for a Manx crab bap right now! I regularly walk along the coast to the Chasms and Spanish Head when I am there. One time I was there in early January with a friend and he mis-stepped and went straight down one of the small fissures up to his hips; that was definitely a scary moment! We met a couple there who took us over to that small stone circle ( you could just see it in your drone footage) where we all ended up laying down in a semi circle to feel the "healing energy." The couple were quite spiritual but all I could think was that I was out of the wind while I was on the ground! That's a walk I won't soon forget! Glad you enjoyed it Carol and Ken. Usually the fields around there are full of sheep.

Your both part of my Saturday night routine, ken, charlie and strictly what more could a girl want. Wonderful memories for me and the island.

    I'm with you on the heights thing. I think the worst are those glass platforms and floors. They do strange things to the nether regions. I have a thing rather like meniere's syndrome and it makes me feel really queasy so I sympathise. You're probably right about the drone. It'll likely cost near as much for refurb as buying a new one. Plus like the blooming phones I expect it's been superceded by now with a "new Improved " one. Better camera or longer lasting battery or something. I guess it must have done some serious airmiles by now. I shall be sorry to see this little adventure come to a close though being somewhere I've never explored and only know from the TT week perspective back in my late teens. It's been brilliant and I can't wait to see where you'll both be taking us next. 👍
