  • Join us on what unexpectedly turned out to be the last leg of our Scotland Tour 2022. You'll have to watch the video to find out why, but we were both really disappointed as we have been trying to get this tour completed for the last 3 years.
    However, we are not quitters and we will be back!
    Thanks for watching and please subscribe, (it's FREE) and give the video a thumbs up and leave a comment.
    Thanks for watching.
    Cheers,
    Helen & Dave

      @@HelenandDave that’s great I’m at Peewit Park Felixstowe at the moment and thinking about West Mersey in June, I love the fact that it’s reached by a causeway that floods at high tide, hopefully will catch up with you both soon.

    Sorry to hear Helen was unwell but glad she is recovering. It's a shame your holiday had to end so abruptly but health must come first. The footage you did get was amazing. Looking forward to your future videos.

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Terry, that’s very kind of you to say. You’re right of course and we will get back up to Scotland before too long, it’s such a stunning place. Thanks again and we’re glad you’ve enjoyed the video’s. Cheers Dave & Helen 👍

    Sorry to hear about the illness, glad you're feeling better. Yes, we'd have done the same and come home. We do love Scotland but as we're working and have limited holidays, we like to guarantee sun when we can, hence our France Trips. However, when we retire, we'll be up there.
    Looks lovely though..
    BTW I love the place name Killin - lots of puns available there I'm sure...

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks Graham, we haven’t been brave enough to try a trip abroad yet but I hope we do. Yeah there are some interesting place names, on our way to Callendar we first went through a little place called Kilmahog! I wonder how it got that name? ATB Dave & Helen 👍

    What a shame for you both. We got as far as Loch Lomond and I got a dreadful ear infection with a high temperature so we never got across to the beautiful beaches of Arisaig. There’s always another year 🙌🏻

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi Barbs, there was no point in trying to carry on. When you’re feeling poorly you just want to be home. We’ll be back 👍

    Glad Helen is feeling better, were up on Scotland on September for nearly a month, we're stopping at Maragowan for 4 nights, not sure I made the right desicion now 🤔

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Andrew & Karen, It’s location is it’s strong point and other than the toilets which do need an upgrade I think it’s fine, the roadworks should be over when you get there. Helen is doing much better now. Thanks both, ATB Dave & Helen 👍

  • @DesmondsDonders
    @DesmondsDonders 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That is rich me telling Helen how to pronounce the Scottish sites. We are both sorry to hear you were unwell Helen. Neither of us have had a problem but then I never want to go home LOL Great to hear Helen is feeling better. As to the weather we stopped going to France because on our last trip there it was cold and wet in August and we burned wood to keep warm so we could sit out as a group. It was never our favourite site when we had a caravan but we love Killin.

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Dave & Lindsay, glad to hear you’re both feeling OK 👌 You’re right though, Killin is so picturesque, we’ll be back though. Take care both of you, catch you soon, cheers Dave & Helen 👍

    @glenisgrossmith131 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hi Helen and Dave - loved watching your vlogs. We are looking at touring Scotland and like some of the sites you have visited. How long would you suggest staying at each site?

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Glenis, many thanks for your message and also for supporting the channel, we appreciate it very much. We tend to stay around 3/4 nights at a time because we like to tour. That way we have a couple of days out and about in the car sight seeing and a lazy day on the campsite. However, this can get tiring so sometimes as an alternative we might look at a couple of sites (say North & South) stay longer but have more days out sight seeing. That's probably not helped too much. (sorry) we are thinking 3/4 nights at each site this year. Thanks, Helen & Dave

      Hi Graeme & Janice, she’s much improved thank you, it was a shame, we were really looking forward to the next stage too but coming home was the right thing to do. Thanks for your comment and supporting us. ATB Dave & Helen 👍

    @TheHappyPensioners 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Similar to our trip to Blackpool. Susan copped for it, but we were only there for a few days, plus not that far from home. Susan very kindly gave me it, she’s like that, Mrs Happy Pensioner, so unbelievably generous and isn’t selfish at all when sharing the Dreaded Lurghy, colds, infections, bubonic plague’s, sniffles, ought at all. 😜🤪😂👍

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Helen and Dave. have not added a "like" as we were so disappointed for you at the premature end to your long-anticipated Scotland trip. However what we did see was absolutely lovely, and made us a wee bit homesick. We're now planning our Scotland Trip 2023 as a result ! Many thanks for sharing, and we hope you are both back to full fitness. Cheers. George and Trish. 🙂

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there George & Trish, thanks so much, Helen is much improved although the virus is lingering a bit we’re both feeling not too bad. Glad you enjoyed what we did manage to cover, your home country is truly beautiful with some spectacular scenery. Good luck with your trip next year and all other future plans. Cheers Dave & Helen 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    @CaravanningwiththeMrs 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sorry to hear about Helen's virus, glad she's on the mend. Still good to see a bit of Scotland from a touring perspective as we're going up there at the end of June, near where you went, only for 10 days, though - Creagan Station.
    I plan to catch up with the rest of your series soon.

    Time goes so fast. Sorry to hear you both got the lurgy, you did the right thing Helen, always get home if you are ill... Those falls are great, they could run the village if they harnessed the power. Rest up now x

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Dave find this touring scotland video really therapeutic if your looking for other trips to scotland i can recommend auchenlarie holiday park on the A75 dumfries to stranraer road am there regularly prestwick hp is only about 1.5 hours away A77 and silverdyke.Anstruther fife if an of your viewers want info on these sites put comments in will reply to them am going to silverdyke in march

      @HelenandDave  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Cameron, thanks very much indeed for the feedback. We love being almost any where North of the border. We are hoping to be back up this year, maybe early June but not decided when or where but will check out your recommendations and see if they fit for us. In the meantime thanks for watching. Helen & Dave

    • @cameronstevenson7138
      @cameronstevenson7138 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Auchenlarie has pool pub and restaurant prestwick only has restaurant pub handy if your flying up follow signs for airport you cant miss it last planes are at 8pm so you do get a decent nights sleep silverdyke has nothing on it but is direct path to pub restaurant approx 15 mins walk thats why they dont build a pub as most people are happy to walk all pitches on site are fully serviced £30 a night i wouldnt recommend kinkell braes st.andrews no water tap at pitches u get a wee walk to water but would recommend craigtoun meadows st andrews is a direct road from anstruther safe for cvans used it a few times i normally go from anstruther to st andrews if am up there hope that helps

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Oh dear. Similar thing happened to us a few weeks ago. Started feeling Ill on the drive from Keswick to Bunree. Got tested for Covid and was positive. Never been as I’ll. eventually managed to get medical help. Was stuck in caravan for over a week and ended up having to drive back early when my wife started with symptoms. Hope you manage to get rebooked and finish your tour

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Simon, blimey, that’s not good. Bunree is such a lovely site we enjoyed our stay there but when you’re ill you just want your own bed. Hope you can get back up there again when you can enjoy it more. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. ATB Dave & Helen 👍
