    Thank you for bringing it to the attention of others about the rubbish left lying around. Wales is a lovely country and needs to stay that way.

    Fantastic place. Used to go there all the time as a kid. Glad to see people enjoying it. Take your litter home folks!

    Excellent video, this place looks beautiful. Myself and my boy can't wait to go here for a swim next week, wet suits on order. 😎

      @Empire92online  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Jourd! Be careful swimming there though - stay on the outskirts. Reservoirs are notorious for undercurrents!

    I live in Brombil and tbh it was probably my mother that shouted at you hahaha
    But you're a gem for picking up other peoples rubbish, before lockdown this place had
    hardly any visitors, it was clean and quiet and really relaxing to go to!
    Now its just full of dog shit in bags thrown in trees, and so many accidents due to the amount of people parking on both sides of the road, its a shame really
    But people like you doing your part is well respected, so thank you

    • @Empire92online
      @Empire92online  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ahh it was lovely, but yeah so much litter! It's such a shame. We weren't expecting to do a litter pick while we were there but we couldn't leave it.
      Hopefully the video will help people who want to visit know what to expect (no parking, no bins , etc) and plan beforehand!
      Thanks for messaging too 💛 hopefully it wasn't your mum but if it was I'm sorry for annoying her!

    Really enjoyed Your video. I cycled down past Brombil Res out of Margam Forest years ago, on my mountain bike. It's a magical place. Some parts really do look like Canada. Big respect to You both for picking up litter and showing the beauty of the place. I can't understand how some people leave their rubbish there 😡 Idiots.

    • @Empire92online
      @Empire92online  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm so glad you enjoyed! That's so cool you went there on your bike - I agree it's totally magical. I hope the people who watch this are the ones who pick up the litter rather than the ones who leave their rubbish there! :)

    Loooks amazing!!! Can you swim in it? Do you recommend it?

    • @Empire92online
      @Empire92online  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I definitely wouldn't recommend swimming in any reservoirs! As inviting as they look, they can be super deep with strong undercurrents (even if it looks calm). Still worth a visit though!

      I wouldn't recommend it with a buggy! Maybe one with super big wheels 🤔
