    Hi all! Congratulations if you spotted what Lou is calling a “deliberate” mistake! 😂 this video is recent (filmed jan 2022) she just stupidly put the wrong year lol! Anyway, hope you enjoy our Welsh adventure!

    As a Welsh man i can honestly say the tail is left on so we have something to clean ourselves with once we have finished. Another interesting fact you will see that some sheep have been spray painted with markings, they are the one's who are not virgins and the paint is to indicate to the farmer that they are the one's to be exported to England for the English to eat. Not many people know that !

    You will probably regret the sheep question after learning the reason for long/short tails. Lowland sheep live on lush pastures that can have unfortunate consequences for the digestive system, resulting in some rather messy backsides. A certain kind of fly delights in laying eggs in the soiled wool. Maggots result and literally eat the poor sheep alive. Removing the tail makes less real estate for the maggots to hide and less area to become messy. In theory, the flies are less active at higher altitudes,
    the quality of grass is poorer and less likely to cause stomach upsets, and the tails provide protection from the atrocious welsh wind and rain. You did ask!

    • @campervibe

    Hello, lovely girls, thank you for showing us here in Australia, some of Wales. Can I say that we are very proud of your common sense? My husband is an Australian semi driver and he is essential-food- so he has, in his 40 odd years, driven through fires, floods, major accidents etc. You did not have to show how big your appendages are and knew that you were not prepared for a snow-in. People in Australia have died in their vehicles in the heat and in the snow. You have nothing to prove. You are both intrepid explorers who take care of yourselves and your four legged children. Love the video and thank you for bringing us such brilliant content. Take care, girls. Cheers

    If you are both with the same mobile provider you should consider one of you being with say Vodafone and the other on say Three doubles your chance of getting a signal, where one doesn't cover the other will.

    We say that about English!! Haha! TANTRUM ALERT!! 90% of the English names for places in Wales are Anglicised versions of the Welsh name but a lot of Welsh placenames are getting replaced by English names that have no relation to the original Welsh near me there is a lake called Llyn Bochlwyd meaning Lake of the White Cheek Stage which tells the tale of the Giant Stage with white checks that was chased by hunters and dove to the lake for safety, but someone has decided because they can't be bothered to learn the name they call it Lake Australia just because it shaped like Australia which it doesn't!!

  • @iainathairydog
    @iainathairydog 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    One factor for why your mobile signal is better in Europe is that when you are roaming, you can use any network your home network has a roaming agreement with (often all of them).
    Also mobile masts are allowed to be taller in most non-UK countries. The height of the mast makes a big difference, not just because line of site is further.
    It makes a difference at both ends. I have a 4G antenna on my van roof. It's attached to a pole that used to have a TV aerial (which I removed). The mast can be slid up so it's about four feet above the roof: that makes a big difference when the signal is a bit iffy, but even when down it is vastly better than having the mifi inside the van.

    Have you tried an external antenna? I use a Poynting A-MIMO-0003-V2-12 (MIMO 2xLTE) vehicle antenna with a Netgear M1 router which cost £300 in total but improves signal quality as well as signal strength. EE have the best UK coverage which is why the emergency services use them.

    • @MrGdevere
      @MrGdevere 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@campervibe If your "external booster box" is only capable of boosting your signal then that could be your problem since signal boosting is the least effective way to improve mobile broadband. Ask your supplier if the box also combines bands & improves signal quality (not the same as signal strength - think interference).
      Assuming of course that someone hasn't just sold you a campsite WiFi booster since I've come across several self-builders who have been sold those without being told they don't have any effect when out of range of a WiFi signal.

    Some nice images in particular from the drone. At Blyn y Glyn you can do a circular walk by going along the right hand side of the river where there is access to the plunge pools of about 4 smaller waterfalls.
    As regards sheep's tails it's welfare issue. The tails protecting the delicate areas of the sheep. Farmer told me that having no tail is like being in the house with the front door open.

Certainly at this particular farm tails are docked for hygiene reasons. Loved the vid, did Talybont on Usk on a canal boat 30 yrs ago, beautiful part of the world albeit rather quaint.

Maybe part of van upgrade would be directional wifi antenna, or in conjunction with a Weboost type device for better signal? Same issues this side of the pond, cities are OK, but away, then little to none in less populated places. Seem the EU may be better at signal coverage than both of us.... All the BEST and Cheers!
