Another totally entertaining video..........one piece of advice, when parking up, have the front of Harry face the exit........just for personal safety.
Thanks for watching but above all commenting- good advice and we are trying to break habits and that is one of them where I simply don’t think about it and we need to
@@getawaygeese Having been involved in security, being a doorman supervisor for 13 yrs, overall for 25 odd years and had my own company. it is something that is always to the fore with me. Always assess your area for the night. Face the exit. Personally I would fit a discreet, High powered light front, back and on each side of Harry.......Lights coming on are a great deterrent while leaving inside lights off. Stay safe and looking forward to many more brilliant adventures.
A fantastic capture of our great island,thank you. I was never in the vistor centre, as it was over 30 years since i visited the Blaskets,a windy day too, in a curragh, under a tarpel. One can see a island Charlie Haughey bought,from it too. There was another film made too down that way with Tom Cruise in it, was being filmed while we were there,cant remember the name. Those winds were unreal ye walked in, lucky ye had the look out to hide in. Glad ye enjoyed the day,windswept and all.
@getawaygeese no sorry, a blast from the past, I still see my Irish teacher and we laugh at how I even spoke French in the spoken exam. It's got me thinking to read Peig Sayers in English now. Yes Far Away. I had one of my first cameras and took photos of the set , we were on our motorbike at the time.
The first 20 mins of Tom Cruise film "Far & Away" 1992 , was filmed around the same area of "Ryan's Daughter" 1970. The "Far & Away" village set sited at Glogher Head was made of fibreglass.
Never knew that so thanks for that it’s obviously a great location for films from the drama as well as I guess being quiet and easy to film - can’t believe the efforts on the Star Wars film to get that shot took weeks apparently- thanks for watching and above all commenting
Hi Jane and Stu, I can only imagine that the drivers who tried to go down the pier and got stuck were tourists. Rather than walk up the hill I could've just sat in the van watching the waves. Another great video guys.
For drying wash cloths. Can you not string up a line across the back/ side to side and pin very very well the cloths on it so while you are driving they dry? Not sure of the logistics .
Glad you enjoyed the Blasket Centre. Peig was despised by several generations of Irish school kids as her biography was on the school syllabus. It was heavily censored with all mentions of sex and anything controversial removed so you had entire chapters devoted to riveting stuff like milking the cow or lighting the fire, etc. A far better biography is The Islandman by Tomas O’Crohan. Great editing and narration as usual.
@@getawaygeese can confirm, all my class hated Peig as had to study it in Irish and I wasn't brilliant at Irish despite the compulsory 14 years of learning it. Do like Irish now as an adult though.
@tiddlywinks456 I absolutely hated Peg, it wast her fault, it was the eduation system sadly. Read your comment, and thought oh my word, it wasn't just our class.
Well portrayed excellent commentary.👍🏼
Thank you glad you enjoyed
Everything about this video is perfect.
👏👏👍❤️
Glad you enjoyed - it was one of those days filled with great things - thanks for watching
The visit to the Blasket Cultural Centre was awesome and so well explained, thank you so much for sharing...👏👏
Glad you enjoyed the place blew us away as the architecture was so good - thanks for watching
Difficult to keep flannels and towels clean isn’t it. Veggie pud looked great. Another lovely video guys. 🙏👍
Yep not cracked this one yet when you are in a wet climate I am not sure there is much you can do to be honest - thanks for watching
Wow! That is an awesome museum and another very entertaining video. This entire series has really been a treat!
Glad you enjoyed we have a few more to go on this series
I am always confused these days, not just when I wake up. I wonder if the Little red camper would fit down that slipway. 😁👍
I dare you it would make a great ‘well we did it video’ but I can assure a worse 90 degree bend would I think defeat all apart from maybe a smart car
Ooooh! That Blasket basket place looks interesting!
Thanks for sharing!

Yes it would be right up your street so interesting and well done for 5quid each - bargain

Thanks Lorraine - some one mentioned the Tom Cruise think it was far and away - thanks for watching and sorry for bad memories of school days 😂

Memories brilliant when they spark an action
@getawaygeese that's it 100%. Jane and Stew, have a superb day, and yet again another great video.
That museum looks Fantastic!!
It was! One of the best buildings we have seen thanks for watching
That walk was a bit too windy for me. I’d have enjoyed the view from the bottom. Take care Gill
Haha 😂 yes it was a little touch and go but the best views often have to be earnt

What a fantastic centre and only €5! I’m sure they get the volume of visitors to help offset the cheaper price.
Yes we assumed they must be centrally funded - it’s a great place and the architecture of the building was first class
Your content and storytelling get better with each video and I look forward to each episode.
Thank you for sharing your travels with us.
Great feedback and thank you for watching and supporting us

Yes it makes you wonder why you keep going when it’s obvious it’s narrowing on you - blind faith I guess lol
You two are consistent when it comes to time issues..............clearly this was the precursor and build up to the big one ! 😂😂😂
Yes I think you just maybe right there - didn’t think about that
Your vlogs are just getting better and better. Loved this one.
Glad you enjoyed - thanks for watching but above all commenting
Loved it, great video and what a cultural centre. Cannot wait to visit. Brilliant vloggs. How long was your trip?
We loved it as the architecture was well thought out and added to the stories so you will enjoy it - we managed 9 weeks in the end
Thanks for watching

Yes that might be an idea I have a bungy type line so will take a look at that one - thanks for feedback

@@LorraineG123 blimey sounds like the cultural stories were not all good 😩
If you have room put smelly things in the freeze it kills the bacteria causing smells to die when frozen
