This week's vlog was absolutely hilarious and as important - interesting as well. You two are the Morecambe & Wise of motorhoming world. Keep up the good work ~ some good tunes in there tooooo. A big THANK YOU 👌👍
Hellooooo. Ernie here!! 🤣
Thankyou. Delighted we make you laugh, we hope you keep laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🚐

We take it all back. You two are hard as nails going down that track 😁👍. Loved the table limbo demonstration and we will buy a dog bowl so we can practice leak recovery 😁👍. Hate to say it but that Castle is one of the best we have ever been in. The outside does not do it justice. Safe travels. ❤
Hi 👋
We are slowly getting braver 🤣🚐🤣🚐
Great vlog you two . Some good banter and jokes this time , love the dogs and Dora was so cute doing her commando move 😊 scenery was great and even though I’m a midlander notice you called your sandwich a nice “cob” Andrew , here oop North they look at me gone out when I call a bread roll a cob ! Some great music, especially Chris Rea . Love watching where and what you get up to each time . Have a great week 👍x
Can’t beat a bit of Chris Rea 👍🎶
We wish you an ever more brilliant week xx
The commentaries are class❤
Waiting for the BBC to call us for a slot after Countryfile 🤣🤣
One of the happiest days of my life was when I saw the new owner of my POS Benimar driving down the road! Good luck with it!!
This is fantastic ❤️👍🚐
We've recently started watching you as we live near the Yorks coast & have been to alot of the same places, really enjoy them, both your dogs are adorable but Dora's crawling just cracks me up, creeping past the sheep was hilarious! 😂 😂😂
Hi. Welcome to our channel, we are delighted you found us 👍👍☀️
Cracking vid - well done fixing the table - Dora looks like she’s getting big - she’s a cheeky one 😅
She is bigger and cheekier 🤣🤣🤣
She says a special Hi to you

Hi guys, firstly nice pixelation of Claire!!🤣 and Andy you are a proper engineer fixing the table.🛠🗝⚙obviously the dog bowl was more of a challenge 👍seriously though another brilliant video. So entertaining and subtle as ever. Keep up the good work and you're not northern softies, that's a moniker for us southerners!! Regards Andy & Lyn.
Hi Andy and Lyn
Firstly 🥴🥴 Eeek!! 🤣🤣
Glad you enjoyed it, the dog bowl is a serious issue 🤣🤣
Have a great week 👍👍
😂😂😂😂😂 lots of chuckles in this weeks adventure! 🙌👍🏻
🤣🤣🥴👍
I am loving this, your site came up in my feed and I am now a subscriber, great vids the Roy Castle joke was a blinder. 😂❤
Welcome to our channel and delighted you found us 👍 can’t beat a trumpet joke 🎺
Thats the problem of getting it up or down in the mornings 😂🤣 Fixed double is instant bedtime & i love it 😴❤

Giving me ideas of visiting these places, many thanks
Another great bit of content and you two are so funny. Look forward to your next adventure.❤
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks ever so much for watching. Love to doggies xx
Oo we love that area, spent a day on Holy Island in the spring this year and so pretty around there.. have a lovely day Andy and Claire😊😊
Hi. We also loved Holy Island 🏝️
Hope you guys are well and thanks for watching 👍
Druridge Bay is our 2 labs' favourite place. Great video. Loved the Roy Castle quip 😂
Hi 👋 big woofs to your lovely labs x
Hi nice quite looking site. I’m loving Pablos stealth moves, you need to get a wee commando suit. Just love your humour guys. Keep it coming. We are thinking about going to the Northumberland area next week, we are busy doing a few wee jobs in our van just now, new lights with USB points, fix a broken latch on overhead cupboard and put some insulation in the doors. We have the Elddis CV20 Platinum 111 and we are hoping the insulation takes away some of the noise and also keeps heat in on colder days.
Take care Hasta la vego baby Jan and Willie
Hi 👋 Glad you are enjoying the videos
Go go go, we loved it, beaches are beautiful. Your van sounds epic, We hope to bump into you guys one day.
Hey guys just watched your last 2 vlogs.... 👍😁 Very entertaining as usual.... Have a great night... We're just back after a week on the road.. Had a great time.. Be good and and safe travels 👍❤️
How was your travels?
Thanks for watching 👍👍❤️
Glad to have discovered you guys - comical and lighthearted 😂😂
we are glad you have found us
hello andy and clare . love your vlog, very interesting
Hi 👋 Thanks for watching
Have a great Saturday 👍
When we were on the NC500 at Castle Sinclair, we came across thousands of those stone stacks that people had balanced stones one on top of the other. We later visited Dunstonborough Castle and on the way built a couple of virgin stone towers on the walk along the sea from Craster ourselves. A year later we did the same walk again and there were hundreds of stone stacks. Trend setters or what lol. My work colleague Fred Hardy married Chris Rea's sister, I don't think it was on the beach though. The family is famous for ice cream making as well as Chris. The steel river he sang about was the River Tees. I personally worked in the Steel works for 35 years, my brother for 44 years.
Hi 👋
How are you? We love a bit of Chris Rea. Fan song
Keep trendsetting 🤣👍 any tips welcome 🤣🤣
Nice to catch up with you both again. Been a while. Not lost the touch, good watch 👍
Hi Pete. We are heading to Wales soon… will be in touch 🏴
Bamburgh Castle xxxx awesome beach. ❤❤❤ hayfever is a nightmare xx is that rothbury? P.s I was gutted about the beautiful sycamore tree xxxx liz
Hi Liz 👋
Andy, well done for sorting the electric table, I think our electric bed is a bad connection somewhere, it's finding it that's difficult! We've lost count of the times we've knocked Archie's water bowl over or forgotten to empty it before driving off! These smaller private sites are becoming more popular because the CAMHC sites are ridiculously expensive. What was once reasonably priced is now fast becoming an expensive luxury. Nice beach & great to see the castle. We have stopped at a CL site at Holly tree cottage, Gunthwaite top farm, Denby on route to Scotland in April, a lovely cosy site with terrific views.
Hello 👋 Yes we are really starting to enjoy private or smaller sites and typically look at them first
Hope you guys are ok, especially Archie 🐾
@@Stchristopherofatlantis Archie thanks you for the shout out, he's looking dapper today because he's been to the groomers. 👍🙋😉🐕
❤️❤️
HI Andy & Claire.
Glad u sorted the table,get one of these dog bowls,they're called 'road refresher' designed for vehicles and really do work,saved us many times.
Enjoy the rest of your tour.
Hi 👋 Ooosh not heard of those, I’ll get one 👍👍👍👍👍
flippin brilliant video guys. big yayyyyyyy to you Andy for fixing that fluffing table but lol at you both thinking you had a leak when someone kicked the dog water dish over- used to be my fave trick when we had a motorhome. I proper love that republic of atlantis logo Andy. I could deffo live with one on a tee shirt for sure, Get some of that there merch on the channel.. it'd look pretty darned good on the back of a hoodie too. I'd get one to be your official one man fan club lol Much respect to you both and the furbies. 🙏- Kenny
Hi Kenny, watch this space on the Republic of Atlantis.
Thanks for watching and delighed you enjoyed
Happy travels
We are good thanks. Enjoying your vlogs, just on with watching your latest.
Thanks for watching xx

Well done on fixing the table, turns out Andy isn’t just a comedy genius after all. 🎉
Is there another Andy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Stchristopherofatlantis 😂😂😂😂
The Roy Castle joke made me LOL 😂
Classic joke 👍👍 🎺
If it wasn't Andy cracking us up it would have been you Claire if it wasn't pixelated 😂
Back to your comedy genius with this vlog.
Shown that Northeners are hard core.
Hi Carole, how are you all?
Gotta love it 🤣🤣👍👍🥴🥴
It was good to get away again, thanks 👍
We will meet up day and share some laughs 😂👍🏻 Walkworth they did the tour de Britain ! After the bikes passed I decided to jump in our car and join the in with the crew hazard lights flashing and blowing the horn and waving to the crowds , wife couldn’t stop laughing 🤪😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey, you two. That's another great video....18 months back, I was playing Chris on Naiyang beach. Let's hear him driving home for crimbo 🎅
Sounds great!
Your next stop is Craster as in Crass-ter. Famous for kippers which you no doubt have tried 🐟. I'm currently 2.5 miles from your 1st proper site location, the Railway Inn, Morpeth. Great little site.
Hi. How are you guys?
Crasster next week 🐟 👍
@@Stchristopherofatlantis looking forward too. There’s only me. If you remember u are going to give my auntie a shoutout for her 70th. We both love the channel.
Craster👍🏼.. the Jolly fisherman great pub nice looking out the back if you can get seat … then a walk to the castle and if feeling fit carry on to Low Newton by sea to the Ship pub .👌🏻
@leeelvin1178 oooooosh……. 🎯
Been to a couple of outdoor parties at Druridge Bay. Lovely spot 😊
We really enjoyed it 👍🚐☀️🏝️
You too are a comedy act, brilliant.😂😂

Them dog bowls can be trecherous ;) Great vlog guy's
🤣🤣🤣👍👍
Well done you two loved it great vid as always.Andy certain doesn’t like the castles he even put the boot into Roy castle🤣 I bet he liked castle grey skull though when he had his he-man PJs on though🤣👍🏻
Love this comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good man jobs there. I had to dismantle and replumb my caravan kitchen with a leatherman before now. Hero for the day.
We function on blue and pink jobs!
Works for us
Thanks so much for watching 👍👍🤪
You’d think Andy would love castles, seeing as they’re old relics like his jokes 🤭🤭 julie’s still laughing at the black adder joke 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Darren sighed a massive sigh of relief when you said the food was expensive,,,,, he thought he might have to do overtime next month 😂😂😂
Hello 👋 can’t wait 👍👍👍👍
@@Stchristopherofatlantis us too ❤️
Bloody dog bowl aye!!!! Love it.
🤣🤣🤣👍🥴
Clare/Claire reminds me so much of the lady that was in Car Share with Peter Kay 😊
Hi. I’ve been told that before….. 😂👍
Have you ever thought of doing a places to visit book? I keep meaning to write down some of these places as they look so good and I am always stuck on where to go.x.x I just think Dora is a mental dog...fits in perfectly I'd say!
Hello. Funny you say this we did talk about this earlier. We have been to some cracking places that we would recommend
She is craaaaazzzyyyyyyy 🐾🤪
Have you been to Bamburgh? It’s stunning and there’s Motorhome parking opposite the castle xx
Hi 👋
Keep watching to see us in beautiful Bamburgh 🏰☀️👍

It's fashionable, where? 😂 Looked nice, the beach was👌
🤣🤣
just found your vlog,love your banter
Hi. Delighted you found us 👍👍👍
always good to have a top that doesn't show the overhang ;)
Essential when you get to a certain age 🤣🤣
Agreed
Re table was going to say last week that it sounds like the limit switches but i was just an idea ??
Glad you found the problem
Basically Andy twiddled some wires!! Voila
🤣🤣🤣
@Stchristopherofatlantis I heard he is a good twiddler ???
Hi Claire, where did you get your dry dryrobe coat from please? Another great video, have a good week both. Xx😊🏴🏴
Hi we bought it from a shop in Brixham. Love it, very warm and dry 👍👍
OK, thanks Claire x 😊
Cracking vlog…..Durrage Bay is great….but my fav is Beadnell bay…followed by fish and chips at Seahouse
Hi… keep watching and we head to beautiful Beadnell next!! 🏝️☀️🚐
Alnmouth beach is lovely
👍👍👍🏝️☀️
The purple planty thing is a Sambucus. Related to Elder.
If you had squashed the leaves you would smell of Elderberries...
You probably did the right thing walking away.....
Oooosh really. Love Sambuca 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂Sorry had to laugh when I heard cluck then the table worked.Sorry ❤Hope your head is ok.
🤣🤣🤣 Hi 👋
Yous guys ever been to castle Howard near Malton ? We visited recently, Some great walks.
Hi 👋
I have looked at a few sites near Castle Howard 🏰 we will probably head there so any recommendations welcome 👍
What caused the water leak?❤
It was the dogs water bowl that had tipped over 🤣🤣🤣🥴
Good to see you found the bad electrical connection. If i had a pound for every iffy electrical issue on caravans..............
Would you have a million pounds 👍👍
Thanks and happy Sunday ☀️
Sneaky Dora. Brilliant.😂
It takes ages to get anywhere 🤣🤣🤣
I've heard great things about Northumberland beaches. Out of the ones you've been to, which one would you recommend?
Bamburgh beach was definitely the most beautiful ❤️
So … when can “we” get a “Republic of Atlantis” polo shirts? I need one to cover my “overhang” as well - 🤞👕🤞
Watch this space 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'm sure Get Carter was made in the 60s and shot on Seaham beach or near there.
Sorry it was 1971.
Blackhall beach near Peterlee.
🤣🤣🤣 buggar
It was the 70s of course 🥴
@@Stchristopherofatlantis the terrible remake was 2000.Have a feeling you looked at Coach Carter with Samuel L Jackson.But even that was 2005 !
The Long & Winding Road 😉
😂
great
Yay!
Just wondering that £100 jacket …. Surely it’s clairs far to small for you Andrew 😅😅😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
Theres a Montane factory shop in Ashington.
👍👍👍👍👍
The T-shirts are mint
❤️👍
I'll dive in first!! Hope that bed gets sorted
🤣👍 Hi David 👋
Take it you've done all the looking at fuses - relays including any slave boards - plus got the oder manuals via the waybackmachine?
Crikey! Andy just twisted a few wires ⚡️👍
@@Stchristopherofatlantis glad it's sorted - seeing the connector reminded me of my first wiring on motorbikes way back with crimped bullets and spades (i.e rubbish )looks like the builder had the same halfords tool but keep in mind a motorhome is a rolling earthquake - our caravan and 12 years old is prettywell sorted but it's always have a eye out for loose bits (having a background in design and a 3d printer i have better than bodged a few items too
Who'd have thought then 10k makes you that famous that the farmers come out to trim the hedges for you so that you don't scratch your paint work?
I'm not famous and I have more scratches than paint on my van.
glad you were able to sort the bed, a big motor home gets small pretty quick when there is a double bed in the middle of the lounge.
🤣🤣🤣 this is funny 🤣🤣🤣
I knew if I kept watching that tedious walk you would make it worth it. Then it happened..." Never liked Roy Castle... always blowing his own trumpet"😂😂😂😂
Good joke that one 😂
😂👍
Walkworth Castle is a castle you should have visited (inside). Very impressive keep, with cellars, floors above etc. One of the best and dog friendly.
I'd have thought, with your TH-cam channel, it woukd be worth your whikse paying for family membership of both English Heritage AND the National Trust. It might be an expense (that you can set against incone from your channel) but it would allow you free entry to Walkworth & Dunstanburgh castles and Lindisfarne Priory - on your current "tour" - as well as lots of other places. In Yorkshire, for example, Studley Royal & Fountains Abbey near Ripon, Whitby Abbey, Rievaulx Abbey, Mount Grace Priory, Pickering castle (all dog-friendly) as well as Helmsley Castle ... Actually, too many places to list and mamy of them have extensive gardens etc as well as the usual cafes/restaurants etc. You'd get your money back in a few months.
Hello. Yes we have been chatting about this and agree it’s a great idea, especially because we would enjoy all those places.
By the time we got to Warkworth it was closing 🙃
Thanks for watching and have a great day 👍👍
Proper Yorkshire man the famous words of lets not get carried away when spending money is mentioned 😂
😂😂😂👍
We will meet up day and share some laughs 😂👍🏻
We will bring our best joke book 👍
Dora's belly crawl, 🤣🤣
She is terrible for it 🐾🤣
@@Stchristopherofatlantis Looks like she's been trained by the SAS.🤣
I never liked Roy Castle 🤣I subed for that one liner alone 😂
🎺
Keep your tool box handy for the rest of your motorhome lives just like the rest of us
🤣🤣👍
Andy Can I ask where did you get your central console for your phone and stat nav ? As we are picking up our first Benimar Tessoro 463 on Tuesday 22 of October
Hi. Your Benimar sounds epic 👍 Congratulations 🙌
Our central console was already in the van, we didn’t put it in. Guessing your doesn’t have that then?

I don't like Roy Castle, why? Because he is always blowing his own Trumpet.😂😂😂😂 you two are bloody hilarious
Classic joke 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Stchristopherofatlantisit’s dedication. That’s what you need.
@@BigAlontheloose when Roy castle was dying of passive smoking he went to the doctors. The doctor told him you have for 6 months to live, he said I will do it in three because I want to be. A RECORD BREAKER 🥁🥁🥁🥁😂😂😂😂

It was a lose wire!!! 😮🤣

Any chance of an out take/blooper special?
We have thought about this but don’t want TH-cam to ban us 🤣🤣🤣
Do it do it 😂
Hiya smelly Clair ( no shower ha ), wire came loose under bed/table, it must have been all the shaking about, or something, I don't like clogs, but I do like castles ,and stately houses, I like yooose two walks with doggies, keep doing what ya doing
Hi. Thanks for watching
Hi Andy what breed is your beautiful Dora she looks very much like our Shipoo ?
Dora is a Maltipoo
She beautiful
I agree with Claire, Crocks are comfy but bloody ugly. Why oh why did they design them like that? Is it because they are `unisex` or is the design meant to be what sells them. I am put off though because they look clumsy and similar to `clogs`. Wonderful banter again and entertaining X.
This is so true 👍👍😂😂
J.R.Hartley What a leg-end he was....
