Wild Swim Regrets!? (VAN LIFE in Northern Ireland)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ส.ค. 2024
- The hidden gems of Northern Ireland. This week we take a trip down memory lane to explore two of our favourite places in our wee home country, starting off with my favourite wild swimming spot of all.
Nestled amongst the Mourne mountains are Newcastle & Castlewellan, two spots that have a special place in our hearts. After many years it's time to return and see if they live up to the hype of our childhood memories.
Bloody Bridge is our first stop, and it certainly doesn't disappoint! This is a must-see video if you're ever planning on traveling to Ireland - Bloody Bridge is truly a hidden gem and one of the best wild swimming spots in Ireland! Not only is the scenery breathtaking, but the swimming is top-notch as well. If you're a fan of wild swimming, then this is a video you won't want to miss!

⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. Enroute we stopped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But now we are back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe before we experienced another vanlife nightmare... our van caught fire! After the trauma of that we had a massive change of plan and have now made our way to Japan. We enjoyed a three month Japanese Adventure and are now back in Martha ready for some more European Adventures.

I honestly don't understand how you don't yet have 1M subscribers, let alone 100K. Come on, @TH-cam. Get your algorithm sorted!!!
I fully agree you two are a real tonic.
Most underrated channel ever
Redcar on the northeast coast was the go too. Visit our anti Lilly then down to the front for ice cream and play the penny slot machines. Run on the beach with our dog who was always sick on the way home. You guessed it ! He eat seaweed haha.
Love you videos thanks Richie.
Yeah TH-cam sort it out 😜😜😜 thanks Wagner 🥰🥰
Totally agree, I love this channel - you guys have a wonderful chemistry and so much fun!
You two make me laugh so much! I loved Philly going back on the drone video and found Keely cheating on the maze😂
Hahaha glad you enjoyed that Donna. Caught out, but in my defense I really thought I had went back out the hole I went in ahhaa
There WAS a dinosaur!!!! Was the only incentive to get me to walk round the lake as a kid! 😂
So he didn't make it up 🤣🤣
No he definitely didn’t make it up.
This video was hilarious, my husband hates when we are watching something and I shout ‘been there!’
This video we were both jumping around the living room ‘been there, been there, been there!!!!!’
Pure nostalgia
Heavens, what a fun video! Actually, I love ALL your videos and since finding you have gone waaaaay back - determined to watch them all. Thanks for the joy you bring to all of us devoted subs! XX
Awww thanks so much heather, that's so lovely 🥰🥰🥰 appreciate your lovely comment
Oh you guys are the sweetest. Love your eternal 'date days'. Never change and keep those vids coming. Take care ❤❤
Thanks so much Denise 🥰🥰🥰
In the 70's & 80's we used to spend long sunny days on Widemouth Beach in Cornwall, we now still go there with our 2 children 17 & 23 and its still a magical place for a sunset bbq and sea swim!!! Gorgeous video as always you two xxx
Oh lovely Sally 🥰🥰 what a wonderful place to have grown up in
« I need t wrap you in Bubble Wrap » 😂 … burst of laugh
« I was a winner when I married you » ❤ … almost geared up…
You guys are the best. So many emotions watching your videos. I can’t get enough of you two 😊
As for my best childhood memories, they are in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA 🇺🇸 (where my parents took us on vacation every Christmas). However, I live 2600 Kms away so my chances of going back are slim 😉 as I’m in Montreal, QC, Canada 🇨🇦
Aww lovely ❤️❤️ so glad you feel all the emotions with us in the videos 🥰🥰 my one memory stand out memory from the time we were in fort Lauderdale (we stayed for one day on our way to South Americaa few years ago) was how high the bottom of the cubicles were in the toilets 🤣 in UK our doors are right down to the floor, but in FL they were like at my knees, I was convinced everyone could see my butt 🤣🤣 funny the memories that stick on your head. Also a 80year old guy on a bike carrying a surfboard wearing American flag hotpants stuck in my brain too lmao
We use to take the train from So. Calif. to Oklahoma in the Summer with my mom to visit her parents and sister. I did the first trip as a baby with mom, dad stayed home and worked. Later when my brother was born it was the 3 of us. We had so much fun roaming around from car to car. At home, mom would take us fishing during the week on to the pier and then on the weekends when mom and dad were sailing in the boat, my brother and I would fish from the dock inbetween riding in the boat as well. There was a park where my friend I would take some cardboard, climb up the hill and then go sliding down on our bums....and hopefully not getting injured. We rode our bikes to the beach and played in the surf. There was another park in the Summer that had a huge fountain of water coming out of the middle that we could play in and escape the heat. And, we loved camping in the Summer, usually heading up the coast or inland to a favorite lake. I still like to do what I did then, travel and camp, hence, the campervan. Enjoyed seeing your shared childhood adventures, cheers to the good old days.🥰🤗
Loved reading this all, felt like I was right there with you. Little glimpses into people's life is so nice ☺️☺️ Thanks for sharing Adele ❤️
Love the video also love the wee feature of me and my friends! Keep up good word 😊❤
amazing video!!! keep up the good work. It was so awesome meeting you guys as yous are such kind people with a good heart!! follow your dreams as i know yous will go far❤❤❤
Aww thanks so much guys, we appreciate you being kind to us and asking about TH-cam ❤️❤️ we always feel weird filming in public, so you being kind means a lot 🥰🥰
Childhood memories revolve around camping! The same spot on the northern coast of California (almost to oregon) The. Best. Place. Ever!! Recently told my niece for her first time and it was bloody brilliant!! All the memories came flooding back in ❤️
Aww that's lovely Bre 🥰🥰 Do nice to recreate these memories with your niece ❤️
And it makes it more special because my niece actually loves camping!! 😄
Where? I live in Marin and want to do a camping trip up that way
@sharaswitala6296 it used to be called patricks point located in trinidad, ca. However, it's now called sue meg state park. You get the best of both worlds! The gorgeous redwoods and the crispy coastal waters of the pacific ocean ❤️ my favorite camping spot, hands down!
You always have fun and seeing your childhood memories of day's out is the best the best memories for me are when we went on holiday to Europe and ending up in the former Yougsalvia staying in Novigrad 1978 then a return trip with my brother 1990 great trips ❤❤❤❤stay safe and keep having fun no more trying to make the laptop drink AG1 👏👏👍👍
99% of when I watch your vids I'm sat here either looking like a Cheshire cat 🐱 or laughing out loud.
This vid was me smiling and laughing.
I just love your content. It always keeps me watching and looking forward to what's coming next and you never disappoint. That's a skill right there 👍🏻.
Keely, you are a cheat. Can't believe you tried to defend it 😂😂.
We've spoke about doing a tour of N Ireland. Never thought about it before I watched your posts.
But in saying that, everywhere you've been makes me want to go 😂😂.
Ramble over 😂.
Only 5 sleeps to seeing you both again 🤞🏻😂.
Have a fantastic week, hope you've avoided the rain 🤞🏻💚
Awww thanks so much Alan 🥰🥰 I would say that it's usually grey and miserable, so if you do come makeusre it's when the weather is nice to make it enjoyable lol.
My childhood place is my childhood home in New Hamburg, Ontario Canada. I now live across the street! Live on, childhood memories. :)
Awww love that you are just across the street now 🥰🥰🥰
The maze bit was hysterical! Ty for the much needed belly-laugh😂❤
Glad we made you laugh Jenny 🥰🥰 we all need more laughter in our lives sometimes ❤️❤️
We moved around a lot while I was growing up and most of those places suffer (IMHO) now from gentrification, so there's no going back...BUT my favorite place was a big old farm our family rented; the house, high on a hill; the gigantic garden that the owners leased to a man who was father to a childhood friend of mine; and 300 acres of high and low fields, leading to a pine, hemlock and other firs forest, through which a lazy river ran. There were wide, flat rocks I would wade out to and just lay there in the dappled light, cooling down from the hot and humid summer days.
Butterflies and dragonflies were everywhere.
When I climbed back up the hill, I'd visit the landlord's stepdaughter's horse in the barn and maybe brush him down or attempt to ride him bareback through the rows of tomatoes...at which point I usually fell off...no matter, it was lovely...especially the horse's beautiful brown-eyed, empathetic gaze toward my prone self, which always made me laugh.
The house still stands, but is not the same due to upgrades. And the bulk of those 300 acres is now home to wealthy Seniors. I'm happy for them, a little sad for the way land gets gobbled up in this country, but oh, so grateful for this memory I'll have forever.
Love you guys; keep sending out this awesome content from your generous, hilarious selves❤
Wow what a beautifully described memory 🥰🥰🥰 really enjoyed reading that. It always is a shame to see land and nature gobbled by property developers. I really hope some of the world stays wild, because it's the same in UK as the US, feels like every inch is owned and exploited for maximum profit. So it's very special when you find places that don't feel that way.
Born in Omaha, and grew up in the village of Silver Lake Ohio, a private lake for residents only, spent part of Kindergarten through 8th grade in Silver Lake grade school. Know one I know still lives there. I have outlived my childhood friends and haven't been back except for a weekend in 1987 which was my fiftieth anniversary of graduating from grade school.
Oh wow private lake sounds awesome!! Thanks for sharing Dennis 🥰🥰
As a kid in the 70s we used to go to different seaside places in Norfolk UK (one week 7 different locations) but my favourite was always the hidden gem.. Brancaster beach because just miles and miles of sandy beach and no tourist attractions.. I currently live in Norwich Norfolk and I go back to this beach on many occasions just for the peaceful tranquility and knowing even on a hot summers day you can cop a squat and not be close to any other visitors... I've always rated this as the best beach in the UK that I've been to
That sounds lovely, Ok if we are ever in the area we will have to come check this beach out (but we won't put it on YT, keep it your secret 😉)
First 8 minutes of your vlog and im laughing so much you pair are so funny 😂. You always brighten my day and cheer me up love you both xx
Aww thanks so much Tracey, so glad to hear we brought some laughter into your day 🥰🥰
Great vlog, looks awesome, so fun! Keeley glad you didn't get injured , water hole looked really nice but BURRR Great day of fun and laughter 😂 Honestly didn't do any traveling as a child 😢, although my favorite memory was at my aunts farm, it was on a side hill, so you had to walk up a hill from the rod, had an open porch with a water sistrin, fresh water running in it from the hillside, Honestly the best tasting and so cold, had a wood lid on it , with a metal dipping laddle. Sadly not there anymore, went back when farmhouse was still standing, it looked so much smaller to me but the water was still running in the porch well.
Thanks so much Brenda ❤️ What a lovely memory 🥰🥰 and so nice to hear the house was still standing even if smaller than remembered.
I bl00dy love you guys xxx
I’m from Birmingham, touring UK in our caravan with 3 dogs. Fave childhood place is Iynys near Harlech, Wales. Basically it’s the estuary you can walk over to get to port merion. I wheats thought there was a kind lady there who gave us ice creams from the back of her house! Found out in my late 20’s that she was in fact a shop.!!! 😮 😅
I love the fact that you thought she was a kind lady, but she was a shop haha! Lovely to hear you have childhood memories in Wales 🥰🥰🥰
I'm from Newquay Cornwall, but it's changed so much over the year's I don't think I would go back there to live and I still live in Cornwall.
Yeah Newquay has become a lot more "mainstream" now hasn't it. It's a strange thing to encourage people to travel whilst simultaneously recognising that extreme tourism isn't good for locals.
Such a lovely video. You two are a joy to watch. I hope you have as much fun making these videos as we doo watching them. How have you 'only' got 12000 followers - we tell every0ne we know to tune in! We've been full time in our van for about 3 months now and are definitely inspired by you guys xx
Awww that's so lovely 🥰🥰 if all our subscribers got one more person to enjoy our videos that would be epic, so we appreciate that ❤️❤️
My childhood memories are all up in the Pacific Northwest... Specifically Washington State, USA. Some of the spots like St. Helens are no more so some of my favorite spots (Spirit Lake) have to remain a memory. I have revisited spots like Mt. Rainier, Mt. Hood., ape caves.. etc. and they all lived up the my memories. Currently I live half a world away in the Middle East. Time for new memories around the world. Can't wait to get to Ireland again. It's on the list... :)
That sounds lovely Jason 🥰🥰 Good to hear those places have lived up to your memories! Ireland will make you some incredible new memories ❤️❤️🇮🇪🇮🇪
Just wanted to say I love you guys loving your Adventures Ireland is a very special place to me and Keeley I love your laugh 🥰
Thanks so much Katy ❤️❤️❤️ Glad to hear Ireland is a special place for you 🥰🇮🇪
@@phillyandkeely I used to live in tubbercurry near gurteen . Look forward to seeing your next video have a blessed day ❤️
We live on the edge of Dartmoor but my favourite childhood place (holidays as a child) and still is my bestest place is not far away. 🌈Bigbury on sea🌈✌️😘✌️
I just looked that up, it looks great!! Reminds me of voidkilla beach in Greece the big sweeping bay, beautiful. I can see why that would be a fave place 🥰
@@phillyandkeely The view from the island is magnificent,all across the coastline. When the tide is in you go across on the sea tractor. Also the island is steeped in history, the pub has been there since 1336. And is still serving today, you guys would love it there xx
You two lovebirds…… your childhood holiday memories look great - mine however….. well let’s just say I’m NEVER going back to Brean Sands 😂
🤣🤣🤣 I feel like I need to hear the full story or Brean Sands now haha
Love Newcastle video usually get there a few times during the year. My childhood memories are of Buncrana and Isle if Doagh which has a fabulous famine village and coffee shop. You should go there scenery is stunning and at least 10 beaches eg Inch beach ,Ludden beach within half hour of Derry . Really enjoyed your paddle boating hope to see more of our lovely countryside and praying hard that the weather stays good for you while you're home. P.S. both of you looking fabulous in your wedding outfits you scrub up well❤ Veronica 😊
Thanks so much Veronica 🥰🥰 felt nice getting all dressed up! We've been to inch beach before, I remember it was absolutely Baltic hahaha!! I would actually love to go visit Isle of Doagh
@@phillyandkeely in case you didn't know inch has new park up for camper vans. Isle of doagh is just beautiful we go there for the peace and quiet just outside Ballyliffin which is where we go for Sunday lunch most weeks 👍☺️
I meant Fahan has new campervan parking 😊
As a young man I grew up in Brighton and Hove. I loved sailing off the beach in Brighton and catching mackeral. Sweet memory
We love Brighton and Hove, what a great place to grow up in :)
...your videos always making me happy...😂 lots of love from windy switzerland....
..and as a child my family went hiking..in all the swiss mountains....and now as 58 i still
love it....and sometimes there is a sent/smell in the air that brings me back to my childhood..😂
Your childhood sounds lovely Silvia, I always love when you get a random smell that brings you straight back to child hood!
You both always make me so happy. Love you to bits.
Born in West Virginia, usa. My best memory was Lttle drive in resturant. Hot dog with chili sauce w/ root beer float (ice cream). I did get to go back years later. It was as good as I remember.
My hubby is from Wales. Love Wales. But honestly my favourite is Ireland. My family is originally from Ireland and I feel magical there. DNA I guess. But at least I am close to my home now.
Love you both to bits. So glad Keely wasnt hurt. Try a cold rootbeer with vanilla ice cream sometime and if really adventurous add a hotdog on a bun. Its soooo freaking good. Love your channel both. Stay safe.
Thanks so much Deborah 🥰🥰 lovely to read a little bit more about you. Great that you feel such an affinity to Ireland 🇮🇪❤️ I'm gonna have to try and find a root beer now to experience this
All my childhood memories are in Yorkshire and sadly I can’t get back but I now live in Cornwall where we’ve been for the last 48 years and made wonderful childhood memories with our two boys, we re visit them all the time and it’s still magic ☺️ 💕
Awww lovely that it's still magic after all this time ❤️
Aw, that was just great... loved all those places - isn't Newcastle just a lovely town. You are too young to remember The Pierrots - which was a 'stage' set up on the main strand where performers would come from all over...music, comedy, magic shows..Punch and Judy shows.. It was so neat that from Lurgan, we could be in Newcastle in about 30-40 minutes, just out for a Sunday drive...So lucky to have been brought up there. Thanks for all the lovely memories. It really is a beautiful country. I remember my brother and his friends diving at the Bloody Bridge - but they wore wet suits. The sea is sooo cold there... Anne from Canada PS: Hope Izzy and Tom are okay...
Thanks Anne 🥰🥰 crazy to think you have lots of the same memories but now you are all the way on Canada! Tom and Iz are well, just trying to figure out life a little, I'm sure they will get some clarity soon on their next chapter ❤️❤️
@@phillyandkeely Thank you for your reply.. Thank you for your great videos...and so glad you are good friends with Lost in Transit...so important...
Newfoundland Canada, childhood memories anywhere on the ocean or swimming in a pond of water, eating ice cream, fish and chips, penny candy from the local store. 😍
What lovely memories to have 🥰🥰🥰 we would love to explore Canada some day
@@phillyandkeely you would love it! Hot and cold climate depending on where you are, snowy mountains in the Rockies to the east coast Irish ☘️ descendent provinces!
One memory I have from childhood is this small beach just down the road from my grandparents place. But I have gone back and tried to find it many times and I can't. We used to swim in the water there and watch the small Curraghs go out. Not sure what happened! LOL It was definitely real. I just don't know my way back to it
That's sounds very magical, like the secret beach. Need to find someone who owns a drone and take it up exploring to find your way back to it.
From start to finish, a very enjoyable video, thank you. Loved every minute of it. So funny, Phily,"I live making videos with you, even though j want to strangle you sometimes" such a great way to sum up a great relationship. So beautiful all the places you both took us too. Great choice of music in the background and top-class editing. Drone shots were fabulous, seagull, and all. We used go to a strand, in latter years, no one swims there sadly,busy with boats, another swim place, as my kids got older I took them there, they now take their friends there. Some places have been built on,but one cool place is a old graveyard, we still love going there,it's a great walk to it. Walked there once in the night, our old postman,was sitting on a pillar, let's just say I had to go home as my pants go wet,over the fright I got 😂😂😂😂. Thanks for the laughs,will never look at a onion ring the same now, after the music backing part 😂😂😂.
Love hearing a little glimpse into your life ❤️ thanks for all the kind words about the video, and trust me if you had that onion ring you would never look at them the same either 🤣
@ChapterByChapterVlog ha ha can you believe I've never ate a onion ring. I eat onions I grow, but never in my life ate a onion ring 🤣🤣. I loved the swim ye did,felt I was right there, with both your refreshing excitement.
Please go experience an onion ring!
@ChapterByChapterVlog this made me laugh ,I will let you know if I ever do.
Most of my childhood memories were in Ballycastle. You need to go back to the park up there and you will be able to gather amazing dulse. My Dad gathered it and carried it home in a pillowcase so you can imagine how much there was - love it!
Thanks for the recommendation to find dulse, I will have to try collect some 💪 love the visual of your dad carrying a pillowcase full 🤣🤣
@@phillyandkeely We could never wait until it dried naturally in the sun so would place it under the grill - 😋
Loved this video… as usual! You are fun to watch. My favourite place to visit as a kid was the beaches in North Shore Prince Edward Island. I loved the sun, the swimming and the snacks!
Oh lovely 🥰🥰 sounds perfect. Thanks for your kind words Rebecca ☺️
Well, my childhood holidays, every summer, was visiting the Isle of Bute (west coast of Scotland), as my Dad is from there. As an adult, I took my son on holiday to Bute and he loved it. In 2021 my son and I did a road trip from Manchester to Bute, shortly after lockdown and Scotland had opened its frontiers again, it was so lovely visiting my childhood special place along with my son and his childhood special place too ❤🏴❤ You guys are so lovely and always make me smile and laugh along with you with the antics you get up to. You have given me inspiration to go and discover Ireland more, thank you 🇮🇪 xxx
We will add Isle of Bute to our Scottish itenerary 🥰🥰 sounds lovely and so special
Thanks for those great memories of losing all my two week’s holiday pocket money on the first day in the Newcastle amusements…every year 😳 in the early70’s.😂 Feeling nostalgic.😑
Love that we brought back all those memories 😆
My childhood memories are from a place in Exmouth Devon called Doone Valley or Lorna Doone Valley it’s beautiful I spent every day there going horse riding as a child 🥰
Oh lovely! I tried horse riding once, I was extremely allergic to either the horses or the hay lmao 🤣
Another great video, had me giggling away especially when Philly mentioned he should wrap you up in bubble wrap. I am exactly the same, so much my family decided to actually wrap and tape me up in bubble wrap on my birthday, head to toe! 😂 I love revisiting my childhood places when I can, but living in NZ now does makes it a bit harder. However I went back to my old primary school in UK number of years ago but was saddened to see that the old part of the school , a lovely 1800ish building had been demolished and was now housing. They did keep the bell tower but was so odd just seeing that. Newer part of the school across road was still there though.
Thanks so much 🥰🥰 how sad to hear a beautiful old building was demolished for housing!! Really hope some day out paths will cross in NewZealand ❤️
Coffee pot will be on and ready for you both if you ever come down under and pass our way😀
@@torviewfarmnewzealand we will hold you to that 😜
OMG! I thought you were going to have to get airlifted to the hospital there Keely. Glad you was alright 😀
Thanks Jayne, he only caught the tail end of the fall, it was so far haha, flew through the air lmao
Don't know how I missed this cracker but anyway saw it now and ye blew it out of the park perfect content love love love this💥💜❤💞💚💫
Thanks so much Veronica 🥰🥰
Cushendall ❤❤❤and it does live up to the hype memories are forever🎉🎉🎉🎉
🥰🥰🥰
best childhood memory for me is Roberts cove in Cork amazing place with lots of hidden gems ,. great video again love the drone shots
Thanks so much ❤️❤️ Will have to add Roberts Cove to our future Ireland Itenerary 🥰🥰
Ohhh keely hoping you didn’t hurt yourself looking for that seaweed. The last image did look like duilisk. I’ve never been to Castlewellan or Newcastle but will do sometime. I’m from
Kilraine near Glenties In Donegal but live in NYC now. We used to go to Castlegoland beach from Narin and roll down the sand dunes. We also used to make bogbine with my daddy. Tis very good for purifying the blood. We had a lot of fun times as I’m one of 13. Love your fun videos
I'm going to have to look up Bogbine now. We used to go to Donegal too in the summer and roll down the dunes!!! I didn't realise you were in NYC now, nice to put a location to the name 🥰🥰
Woop woop for the 2p arcade machines. We had a long weekend at Haven (it was cheap, so don't judge 😂) the only thing we used was the arcade and the 2p games. So much fun.
Fab blog, so much fun. You 2 just make us smile, we love watching your vlogs. The tourist board for Northern and Southern Ireland should be sponsoring you guys as the promotion you are doing for them is epic.
Hope you are having another fun week.
Maybe Keely needs stabilisers 😂😂
Thanks so much guys 🥰🥰 If we got sponsored by tourism board that would be sick haha!!
Dive bombed by a seagull! Maybe it was Jonathan Livingston Seagull 😉
Such a good book! Highly recommend 😊
Always open to book recommendations 🥰🥰
"Pregret" is an absolutely brilliant word! Makes perfect sense - regret comes after the gret, pregret comes before the gret.
Loved watching your trip down memory lane. 🤗 I'm guessing if your folks took you to the same spots again & again while you were growing up it makes sense you would still enjoy them as adults.
Those onion rings looked delicious! My main criteria is that the onion is as easy to bite through as the breading - if they just slide out it's an instant fail. 🫤👎 The chip curry looked amazing, too! We don't have anything like that in the states. ❤️❤️😎✌️xx
Curry chips are the bomb!!! You need to recreate them some how! Totally agree with limp onion ring!! So where is your favourite childhood spot then Aaron?
@@phillyandkeely my folks moved us around quite a bit as I was growing up, from the Upper Midwest to the Pacific Northwest and between, and didn't make many repeat visits to any particular places. And unfortunately a lot of what I do remember doesn't exist anymore as they were places my friends and I went on our BMX bikes. 🚵 I imagine that's a bit different for people on the Eastern Seaboard - the history there is slightly older and better preserved! 😁
Yeah, I am very nostalgic. Love to see you enjoying your child hood places. My memories are in S. Wisconsin, USA. Lots of beautiful outdoors adventures.
Oh, and thy onion rings. . to die for.
Lovely to hear your childhood was full of outdoor adventures too 🥰 I imagine S. Wisconsin is beautiful
The bridge banter lol love you guys
Thanks Debbie ❤️
Good morning, another great video 😊
I love all your videos.
But for me this one was so great. I live in Holland but my mum comes from Northern Ireland.
So every summer as a child we would have our holiday in Northern Ireland with family and we would see lots of these places.
So thank you for sharing these lovely childhood memories❤ Northern Ireland is for me my second home 🏡
Lots of love xxx
Awww lovely Melissa 🥰🥰 we are planning to travel through Holland next month. Any recommendations for places we should see during our short trip through there?
@ChapterByChapterVlog that's great. You guys are coming to Holland.

Awwww such a feel good video ❤ lush to watch you reminisce & enjoy your home comforts. Never heard the term curried chip before 🤣 but sounds like heaven. Thanks for sharing your childhood memories 💖
Thanks so much for watching guys 🥰🥰 guys if you ever come to Ireland makesure you get a curry chip with onion rings lol!
I like Dulse I eat it when it's dried tho, loving the scenery guys thank you.
Thanks Collette, hopefully soon I will find some to try myself haha
More videos like this please. I like it when u guys do activities and challenges ❤
That's good to hear 🥰🥰
Omg loved 2p machines and getting the little keyrings(ramsgate beach ) great episode 👏 😊
Thanks so much 🥰🥰🥰
Love watching you 2 having such a laugh. My favourite beach from childhood is Gwithian in Cornwall & as I live about 10 mins away. We went there last week at 6am, we couldn't sleep, & were the only non dog walkers on the beach. Managed to bump onto 2 people I knew, 1 I hadn't seen in proberly 12 years 😅
Thanks so much Kathy 🥰🥰 That's so cool that you bumped into people you knew haha!
God guys you make me laugh so hard. Thank you for that. One word of advise, next time pump the SUP's to the prescribed pressure that makes it more stabile even. The problem about my childhood memories is that I'm that old that the places have changed or vanished all together. One happy memory is when I was in Weymouth on holiday on the pier or thereabouts and that was a penny arcade. I didn't know you guys still have them. So much fun for a relative small amount of money. I am from the Netherlands by the way. Keep making these feel good movies. Awesome. Love you guys.
So glad to hear we've made you laugh so much! Penny arcades are a lot of un, when you win lmao! At least you have your memories even if the places are long gone
Guys best video ever!!!
Love our wee country and I always made the same crawl though the hedge in the maze too 😂
And to confirm, I remember the giants thrown in castlwellen too
That's good to know he didn't make up the throne haha. Thanks so much for watching 🥰🥰
Really good childhood memories…. Horseback riding with my friends in the Dutch polder
Love it!!! As far as being a kid, I just remember always getting in trouble 🤦♂️🤷♂️💚
Also I second Mike👇
I think all children were always getting in trouble 🤣🤣
Happy Monday
Love the caption of northern Ireland adventure
Thanks so much Charlene, happy Monday to you too 🥰🥰
Great vlog Phil and Keely. North Devon a great place to live. Simply great vlog.well done.glen.
Thanks so much Glen 🥰🥰 lovely to hear you are from Devon ❤️
You two always make me laugh multiple times 😂 😊💚
I'm glad to hear that 🥰🥰 we all need to laugh
My childhood beach is carrickfin co donegal and still is and I'm in my fiftys lol
Oh lovely!!! Donegal has a soft spot in my childhood too 🥰
Great video of some childhood memories revisited. Like yourselves, every time we went to Newcastle we simply had to go to the Amusements, Bon Bon for sweets and our chippy of choice was The Broadway Cafe. I now bring my kids to do exactly the same traditions. I discovered camping (and cider) in Tollymore & castlewellan forrest parks in my late teens/ early 20’s along with the numerous hiking trails through Tollymore & Mournes. It really is a unique and special place. I really enjoy Castlewellan for paddle boarding, Philly you look as if you need a longer paddle for when you stand up. If you haven’t already, you could check out the Mountain Bike and Electric Mountain bike shop in the Courtyard next time your passing, it’s excellent craic! The coffee shop has really tasty homemade treats too! Take care you krazy Kids!
Thanks so much 🥰🥰 So lovely to imagine us having shared childhood experiences in the same places. Ok so if we get a paddle board of our own we need to get a paddle that can change lengths then for me and Philly haha. Maybe I need to get camping in Tollymore and break out the cider lmao.
Hilarious! One of your best videos yet. My best childhood memories are of the beach and hiking in Newport, Rhode Island. My dad was in the Navy so we moved around a lot, always by the ocean. I’m completely landlocked now in Illinois, too far for a spontaneous visit of childhood memories. But maybe someday….
Thanks so much Emily 🥰🥰 lovely to have outdoorsy child hood isn't it! Interesting about your dad being in the Navy.
❤ you two are just brilliant
Thanks so much Li 🥰🥰🥰
WoW you Two clean up very nice .
Thanks Cynthia 🥰🥰
Brilliant video, heart warming and hilarious too. I've had seagulls attack the drone too, they don't seem to like them. Love the channel
Thankyou 🥰🥰🥰 seagulls are brutes aren't they!! They have no fear lmao
I love seeing all these places from my childhood too. Belfast zoo was another place I remember going to as a kid but this was before it moved up the hill also Portstewart strand and the sand dunes
I used to love Belfast zoo, especially when the meerkats would break out 🤣🤣🤣
Living Vicariously! I love a clear Australian creek with beautiful stones to explore and swim in.
That sounds heavenly 🥰🥰🥰
Another brilliant video guys ❤️❤️🚐🚐 xx
Awww thanks so much
Lmao Philly making seagull noises 😂😂
🤣🤣
So worth the wait, what a great video.
Im from gold coast in Australia, which is where i still live and now I have a son of my own whos almost 9, me and my husband both get to take him to all the places we went growing up and watch it bring him joy also its really cool experience. Much love guys!
Love the gold coast, what a great place to have childhood memories ❤️❤️ East coast of Australia was our first experience of Vanlife like 8 years ago. Would love to come back soon 🥰🥰 Australia has a big place in our heart
Its so great when you come back if you want a local guide hit me up, we are currently building out a caravan so we can do some holidays so we can see more of our country although slow process.
A bakery in Bally Castle N Ireland🤣You guys need to do a bakery visit and vlog it they are so so amazing in Ireland.I’m from Belfast but have lived in BC Canada for 33 years.The North Antrim coast is breath taking too.
I would happily hit up a bakery, if I can get a nice olive loaf I'm in heaven 🤤🤤🤤
Beautiful and fun video. I laughed the whole time. Your face plant in the rocks was scary but also a little funny!
My family used to camp in August at Lake Michigan! We always loved our family time there. It could be a little cold in the water but we played all day. We loved it when there was a storm so there were good waves to play in.
You make me want to try the paddle board. You did great.
Thanks so much Carol 🥰🥰 Lake Michigan sounds lovely ❤️❤️ Gotta admit I enjoyed the paddle board more than I thought lol
Cannot wait to check this out when we are back over 😁😁 and also excited for the spots we can show you in the Cairngorms 😆🚐
Yesssss guys we cannot wait to hang out!!!
Thanks for the great videos. We've gone back in time and started watching your travels in Japan. We are now up to Ireland (the Copper Coast).
Aww thanks so much Libby, that's so generous, and so lovely to imagine you watching all the way back 🥰🥰🥰
We are currently in Lake Almanor California which is my husband childhood home. We’re in our new home on wheels 23’ Winnebago Ekko. And I totally get how quickly a small place gets messy. California has had a drought for years and we’ve had rain every day for a week! Love you both! Always a smile!
Ooooo your new home on wheels sounds awesome!! Hope you are loving it, even in the rain 🥰🥰 the space gets messier even more when you are trapped inside in crappy weather.
Hi Glenda, I'm in Calif. too and livin in a Coachmen Crossfit class B....love it! Enjoy your Summer.
childhood place fleetwood just across the water from ireland i have had many a weekend in fleetwood wild camping and most things are still the same and the chippy tea is still just as good :)
Ohhh lovely! Nothing better than a chippy tea eh 🤣
Hi Philly and Keely. What a great video packed with memories of when you were a child. Those chips with curry and onion rings looked amazing. One of my childhood memories are from when my Nan had a static caravan at Prestatyn in North Wales. There used to be a train that went along the promenade up to Frith Beach. We’d then go on a massive bumpy slide on mats and on motorboats on a lake. There were amusements there too where we’d spend our pocket money. Take care. Nick
That's sounds like a wonderful childhood memory to have. ❤️
Ah Keely I’m from Norn Ireland & you were making my mouth water eating them onion rings too 😂🤪
Portrush is my favourite only for Barry’s/Curry’s I loved them 2p machines 👍o yea & Bangor along the coast round at all the beaches 👍
Oh aye, gotta love Barry's!!
We love your videos, always lift our spirits, keep up the great work…🏍😂👍
Thanks so much Robert 🥰
You both are AWESOME!!!❤❤
Thanks Mary 🥰🥰 you are awesome too ❤️❤️
We actually pasted you guys last Thursday evening on Newcastle beach 😁 loving your videos 😍
Noway!!! You should have said hello ❤️❤️❤️ thanks so much 🥰🥰
I loved this ❤
Bus family of 3 from Derry here 🤗 I think we might try out a few of these spots this weekend! Portsalon beaches or Malinhead are just pure childhood nostalgia for me 😊
Thanks so much Caitlin 🥰🥰 Never been to Portsalon beach, will have to check it out when we are in that area ❤️
Loved the video, kept me smiling and laughing the whole time! (Except when Keely biffed it in the rocks, glad you’re ok!)
Thanks Shannon, just a scuffed knee and a strained shoulder. Lucky I didnt smash my face lmao
Love the childhood nostalgia. Query on your paddleboarding though, did you check the pressure with the Manuel pump after? Just concerned they looked a wee bit soft. Enjoy your next adventures ♥️
Yeah we found out after it was soft haha. I thought when the pump said 100 you stop, but apparently that's when its actually stating to properly fill haha
@@phillyandkeely don't think yous were unsafe or anything but if you were to take them in the sea like that it might not be as safe so thought was worth mentioning.
Only found you two yesterday…. Very sweet and very funny… a joy to watch 😁❤
Aww thanks so much Rose, so glad you found our channel 🥰🥰
Hi ya always a laugh, that water looked cold I don’t even like cold showers. Seaweed is obviously dangerous, take care and stay safe cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤩🌟🐨🥰
Haha, very Dangerous 🥰🥰 thanks Barry ❤️
Hi from Ontario Canada!! Love you guys. Love your energy and spunk. Fun videos to watch. Thanks for posting.
Thanks so much for Jan 🥰🥰 very kind of you to say ☺️☺️
Ahhhhhhh, mood is changing! Thank you! LOL
Glad to hear it 🥰🥰🥰
Brilliant 👏👏Very funny 😂 also great music 👍👏👏
Thanks so much Raymond
Great video and lovely to see NI getting the promotion it deserves. Your childhood memories are mine too. Thanks to the local tourist board, I was able to experience a luxurious version of my childhood (2-3 bags of chips shared between five or a picnic on a day trip out).
Went back more recently with our campervan and enjoyed the simple pleasures of van life just as much.
Loving the N. Ireland banter.
That's lovely to hear we have shared childhood experiences 🥰🥰 next time get your self some onion rings with those chips 🤤
@@phillyandkeely definitely. They looked delicious!
You guys are great love your vlogs
Thanks so much Neville 🥰🥰
Are you allowed to use the drone in those parks? I would like to have visited such places when I was a child. Lovely places
So beautiful isn't it ❤️ Yeah drone allowed 🥰🥰
I'm working my way through your videos, so late to this one....love it......but my best childhood holiday memories are caravan camping with my grandparents, sister and cousins at St Helens and Cressy in Tasmania
Aww lovely, Tasmania is such a special place ❤️❤️❤️
@@phillyandkeely so is Ireland, I hope to get there again one day, last time was in 1985 🫣
This was such a great idea. I will say it again... I love you guys💞! Your maze adventure took me back to a memory of me getting lost in Hampton Court Maze on a school trip. It was traumatising, honestly. I can't remember the event, only that I was so upset and the hedge😬! So I really connected with Philly when he said how long he had taken without any supplies. I grew up in South Wales and I have childhood memories of Southerndown beach, Barry Island (Gavin & Stacy land),, Porthcawl and Ogmore. Fun times... and we had holidays in my aunts cottage near Baltimore, Skibbereen, Co Cork. I can't remember my childhood but I can remember some events. Thanks again Philly & Keely, 💚 a great video. Ps. you both look so beautiful in the wedding shots. 🤩
I imagine it would be traumatising as a kid being lost in a maze!!! I think I would be traumatised as an adult lmao. Skibereen is such a beautiful area! Cute wee vintage book store, what a lovely place to have memories of.
I am saving these videos for my next trip the the Emerald Isle. As kid we would spend as much time as we could at the beach on the northern east coast of Florida. One day, I want to swim on the coast of Northern Ireland too. Did you ever go to Malin Point? What a beautiful walk/hike that was!
You know I don't think I've ever actually been to Malin Point! Or at least I wasnt aware of it anyway 🤣 Philly would love to cycle the whole route Malin point to mizen head, top to bottom some day
Keeley wow giving Ursula Andres vibes at swim time. U looked fab.
Wow thanks so much Teresa 🥰🥰🥰
