I genuinely think this is the best vanlife and life in general channel on TH-cam. You both are real, you both are reet proper. Remember fish and chips in Holmfirth and call in at Dixons, the best ice cream anywhere in the country too
@doffchitty1875 I feel a battle. Hell, I feel a full-on war coming on because Dixon's do make thee best ice cream in the country... it's a hill I shall die on.... and by 'eck lad it's a Yorkshire hill at that! 🤣🤣
I love the way both of you promote local restaurants shops and places of interest. Both of you inspire me and I feel that we can have a great holiday even with limited budget. In the midst of thousands of TH-camrs promoting expensive and extravagant lifestyles holidays travelling, I find your channel very inspiring and relatable with the common people, and the truth that something fun and enjoyable doesn't have to be expensive and complicated. Kudos to you both
Bless you both thank you so much for Denver’s shout out he’s so over the moon ❤ and when we see you both out and about we gonna buy you a good drink and have a good natta !!!!!! 👍😁🙏🍺
You are doing brilliant James. Your editing gets better all the time but the most addictive thing about your channel is the love between you and Helen ....❤❤
@@bythecurb Whilst I do understand that it’s likely be the pub crawls/big nights out that get the views so generate the money, things need to be mixed up at least a little so you’re not just a one trick pony 😉 You’re never going to please all of the people all of the time, but it’s finding the right balance I guess. I genuinely am enjoying all your videos and it’s because you’re open, honest, friendly and funny. You and Helen are a little ray of sunshine in an often depressing world. 😀
EE it's a long time since we went out for a meal ,pre lock down ,int eatin out dear now.I loved the look of Helens meal,dint think your shirt was bad at all mate ,keep the dailies comin we look forward to em
I never usually comment on videos but Love you two!! I always watch as I'm getting ready for work in the morning and appreciating the more regular uploads this week! I'm 32 so not geriatric ;) always look forward to the new videos ❤
Nah then. Another good vid. I always use same sayings as Helen. She’s a proper love. Together you are a great couple for sure. Look, I know you both enjoy socialising and a beer or two, just wanted to tell you I went to vanlove fest in York this week… vans of all sizes and shapes and ages ….. proper epic music of varying tastes, food and beer. Three days of entertainment, two nights camping on a live runway… you would have loved it. It’s also a great way to network with your subscribers too. I had a chin wag with Rob from pack the van and go, Kev from wandering wobble, the Woolf cods, notheners on tour, Gary and amika, and another fave liitle man on tour because us neurodivergent folk need to support each other), a massive 500 van convoy for the end too which was a blast to say the least. Would be great to catch up with you guys at some point at a festival…by the way there’s another vanlove fest October 7th in Essex… Keep up the great vids.
Nice to see you two going to a place on London Road. Sharrow Festival is just down the road, in the park, on the first of July if you fancy some free entertainment.
All geriatrics... Cheers James 😂. I'm only 42 and love your channel. You and Helen make me laugh! A shout out next time would be great.. cheers guys and gave a great weekend!!
Hi from Julie and terry on your next video we all ways love it Julie would love it thank you Julie Terry and Ollie the dog it make her day 😅😅😅😅😅 scotland Kirknewton
Another great vid! I have always made lamb Moussaka as I thought that was how it was made, but it's lamb or beef. Glad you had a good reasonably cheap night out.
Don’t change you two. Video clips are brilliant and so normal & natural. Good for showing us parts of the country & eateries you visit, most enjoyable. Refreshing to have something to watch that isn’t contrived. Keep the content coming 💕💕💕💕
Good form Helen with the golf swing, you have that delayed swing move that I've see PGA golfers do. You'll get there James, just keep swingin. That Greek restaurant reminded me of my trip to Greece and I think the first word we learned was ya'mas as we tried the Ouzo. Confession Helen, I lick my plate after a good meal when I'm not in public.😛Patience is the key with us women, we like to take our time, not rush things, so just remember that when you're with Helen. Loved your evening get-away!
You pair and those golf clubs! Was not expecting that.. James thinking he’s Happy Gilmore! 😂 Great vlog and review guys. Greek food is the mutts nuts. You only needed a bit of karaoke or cabaret to round the night off and jobs a good one. 🤙🏻👍🏻
Would LOVE to see you two go on a ghost hunt ! I’ve had a few spooky encounters … too scary to tell on here lol ! You have to be careful though and respectful to the spirits xx
Ah London Road. 20+ years since my student digs were down there. Sh*thole but loved it. Might have to have a trip down memory lane and go for a Greek. Cheers as always you two.
I love Greek food. You can try making moussaka at home. It will be delicious. You can watch a few youtube videos of people making mussaka, and then prepare it in your house. 🥘
Spoiling us with all this content James. Don't feel obliged to upload daily. You don't wanna risk vlog burnout. Do what makes you and Helen happy and as long you focus on that the frequency of uploads is unimportant. All the best 🍻
Brilliant video and that restaurant did look very authentic with the decor 😅, Holiday vibes and you haven't left home 👌 and not a bad price at all. Love me some ghost stories,oooo I hope you say your experience you were going to say in this one tomorrow...I shall be waiting for the ping 😂.. The golfing looked fun,something I've never tried. And now I'm stuffed to try as I can just about stand up straight for 5 minutes let alone whack a ball 😂.. Helen looked lovely as always.😊.
I would say yeah, I'd like to see u two go n look for things that go bump in the night, but Helen might think you wanna take her doggin mate..🤣 Love a good ghostie hunt (been on a couple). 👻
Hi james and helen at the greek place gyros is pronounced as yeeros. I like what helen had the moussaka with a greek salad cant beat greek yummy ❤❤🇬🇧🇦🇺
Would be super to see you guys doing the campervan festivals around the UK at some point. I am currently at Van Love in Elvington York. About time some fresh van life vloggers joined the scene as it's always the same old faces 😊 Good weather, food, music, and of course 🍾🍷🍺 not that you'd be interested in the latter😂😉
We had a shop in Rayleigh High St in the eighties it was for hundreds years old the building. and i stood aside for a old lady in white with a candle coming down the stairs one night while on the night shift.we were very busy and her husband who stood at the counter regularly watched me work the old man with a pipe .months later a mother and daughter on the day shift came in the shop with a old photo to be framed I immediately recognised the old couple in the photo as my nighttime ghosts she then told me her grandparents use to live in the shop years ago . I never told her of our night time visitors .years later after leaving the shop as they doubled the rent I saw a private advert in the local newspaper asking if anyone had seen anything suspicious at the shop .I thought it was my mate having a laugh .I now know it to be a jenuine advert so I wasn't the only one seeing things. Strange but true
I've got a cracking idea for you both now your gonna do daily blogs, move to or stay around Sheffield and get a bulldog and call yourself steel city vanlife, it's the future, it's not done that Canadian fella any harm, another good vlog by the way, I do enjoy em. Cheers both and si thi
Hi both ....I loved the vlog and the Greek food looked mega!! Like the best home cooked and good portions. I think the blue and white is to represent the Greek flag 😄 Not so much of a fashion statement but a declaration of a country so far away .....I could be so wrong though 😕 Could I have a shout out please to my beautiful soul mate Jane 🙏 we watch the vlog together in our "tv time " together and it will make us smile 😁 Safe travels, be happy 🦉 🙏 Gary
Excellent video again, while it's great to see more, as you say, a video everyday puts a bit of pressure on you. It also looks like the woman in the charity shop was a better judge of sizing that you are as well, listen to the experts 😉
i know the owners of the restaurant nikos and maria personally as my dad was the head chef on opening in 2005, the two put their heart and soul into their food. do you mind if i show them the video pal?
The driving range was funny 😂, I've tried it and know what it's like. The meal looked great, although I reckon James if you put yours together you'd end up with kebab and chips. 😁
Fab entetainment as always guys, can i suggest a night in a local boozer where we do a meet & greet? ticket sales & revenue/donations? i'd happlily pay for a night in wombwell werkin mens. All the best! Shout out Josh & Jeyda from donny!
Absolute cracker of vid James & Helen. However, at the start of the next one, could you recall your paranormal story, that you mentioned. Maybe get yourselves across to Ponty to that semi on East Drive. I reckon you both might be shaking like a 💩🐕👻
Rossendale...yes all the car parks are free 24/7 in Rossendale. They all have old conditions of parking signs up that do not apply anymore. The council just can't be bothered to change them. Rossendale is a collection of small towns and villages. Haslingden, Bacup and Rawtenstall. Rawtenstall is only small. It as two fish and chip shops. Just two traditional pubs but lots òf micro pubs. A very traditional market and plenty of charity shops. We have a heritage railway from Rawtenstall to Heywood Gtr Manchester. Heywood is a very uninteresting place. So you could get off in Bury Gtr Manchester. Bury is quite a large town with lots of old victorian buildings and a museum. It also as probably the largest markets in the North of England it also as a large indoor shopping mall. The main street 'The Rock 'as plenty of charity shops. On the train journey back to Rawtenstall u could get off in Ramsbottom and have a walk around, plenty of charity shops and a fish and chip shop. Don't come on Sunday. Everything is closed. saturday is the best day by far. Best wishes.
Hello James and Helen if you can't manage a daily blog don't worry it's nice to see you though lol I think your carrying a bit of water weight it's making that shirt tight lol our body's hold more water in summer lol🌈🌈
I genuinely think this is the best vanlife and life in general channel on TH-cam. You both are real, you both are reet proper.
Remember fish and chips in Holmfirth and call in at Dixons, the best ice cream anywhere in the country too
Thank you so much. That means a lot 😍
2nd that there great
Try Johns at Barry Island before you make wild claims about the best ice cream in the country 😀lol!
@doffchitty1875 I feel a battle. Hell, I feel a full-on war coming on because Dixon's do make thee best ice cream in the country... it's a hill I shall die on.... and by 'eck lad it's a Yorkshire hill at that! 🤣🤣
