- UK Travel Vlog Episode 9: Filmed 14 September 2020.
In this video we visit two amazing locations along the coast of Cornwall: the gorgeous beach at Lantic Bay and the charming town of Fowey. We hiked the steep path to a stunning beach on a perfectly sunny day… and had a chat with the very spoilt cows at the top of the hill with a breathtaking view! Then we visited the fun town of Fowey, which offered lots to do and loads of Cornish charm! Be sure to pay attention so you learn how I determined that I am LARGER THAN THE DEVIL! haha

Hi Dara & Ian. The beach at Lantic Bay looked so tranquil, it still amazes me that the vast majority of visitors to the UK, will never see sights like this. And all because they can't be bothered to leave London, and see the real beauty of the UK. Cornish Pasties are one of my favourite foods to eat, i absolutely love them. And Bagpuss brings back some wonderfully warm childhood memories for most of us Brits. Everyone knows the magic words Emily used to bring Bagpuss to life... “Bagpuss, dear Bagpuss, old fat furry catpuss. Wake up and look at this thing that I bring. Wake up, be bright, be golden and light Bagpuss, oh hear what I sing"”. And at the end of every episode, the words were, Even Bagpuss himself once he was asleep was just an old, saggy cloth cat Baggy, and a bit loose at the seams But Emily loved him. I'll put a TH-cam link in the reply below to an episode first shown on 03 April 1974. 😉👍

Yes, Lantic Bay is a treasure! Thanks for all the context and memories about Bagpuss 💕🐱
You've got that right, most overseas tourists won't see the places we visit. The exception is those that we act as tour guides for, which we did in 2019 & 2018. That was great fun and I'm hoping we'll be able to continue doing it in the future.
@@ians3586 Well said my friend... 😉
Lantic Bay: this is the beach I want to sit on with a book for an entire afternoon 😊
Yes, definitely! On a warm but not hot day ❤
with a cool creamy Kelly's and a bucket and spade to build a castle..
@@david-lt9wj I take the ice cream while you can build castles in the sand 😂
@@MadameMinima if I’ve got time ,when I’m not hanging ten...
Aww. Seeing this and the beaches made me miss home.
Well, it wasn't quite the same as Hawaii... but it was blissful for me! And I loved how this beach had a "hidden" feel to it. Do you have any hidden beaches you love back home?
@@MagentaOtterTravels The thing is, I suspect no-one travels to the UK for a beach holiday. It may come as a genuine surprise that if the weather is kind you can find some truly wonderful beaches. My favourite is Trebarwith Strand , north Cornwall. I have travelled a fair bit, but the week spent camping with my Dad in a field near to Trebarwith is absolutely priceless to me. So much so, I have taken my family back twice.
It is not Hawaii, no-one expects Hawaii, but when the sea goes out to reveal the vast stretch of golden sand I am the happy nine year old again. Please spend some time on the South-West coast path, from Boscastle, past Tintagel the views are truly spectacular. Another favourite is Studland bay, Dorset, owned by the National Trust. In fact the whole of the Isle of Purbeck is rather special. Sorry, reminiscing.
This has got to be the most charming place I've ever seen.
It was lovely!
I spent many a happy family holiday in Cornwall, with Looe and Polperro being particular favourites. Despite all those holidays, I still mispronounce Fowey, well until I watched your video! Great work!
Haha glad I could be of service!
In general I try to always ask a local how to pronounce a place name, because there's no chance I would get it right on my own!
But this area of Cornwall is absolutely stunning! Glad you love it too 👍
Jam First, say no more😋👍🤣
You know me. I have more to say! lol
@@MagentaOtterTravels yes it would be pretty boring 🥱 if you didn't 👍
Thank you for reminding me of many a wonderful childhood holiday in Polruan and Fowey!
I'm so glad! It is a lovely holiday destination for sure! As are so many places in Cornwall and Devon. I look forward to many return visits myself! Cheers!
Hahaha...at the lounging cows
They so lazy!
Wow! What great views and a wonderful sound of the ocean.
Thanks for watching, Tom! I hope you are feeling better!!
Had to watch this one to see the lucky cows after watching your Wales video and the lucky cows on that one. I agree, they are very lucky. I have never had Cornish ice cream before, but I am now craving some!!
Oh man... it's so fun to try local ice creams everywhere in Britain! I still dream about the buttered popcorn flavour I got in Salcombe! haha
Yes, aren't they the most spoilt cows ever? haha
Love watching your videos. How wonderful and peaceful x
Thank you so much! Editing them is a monstrous pain, but I do love watching them when they are done and enjoying the lovely places we have visited. Such a blessing!
How wonderful! I miss the sea so much!
I hear you... we only see water when we go to the UK!
Lovely visit! Finding the unique and quirky little places is the best way to eat and discover the town for yourself. That view above the beach was the best! I could sit there all day and just LOOK! 😁
I agree!!👍👍
Totally agree. There's so much that we serendipitously stumble upon when we avoid the beaten path.
Brilliant views of Lantic Day & Fowey. it's amazing with the views you saw and the weather was on your side. Look Like you both really enjoyed visiting Cornwall. Thanks for sharing the video.
Yes, we don't take great weather for granted! We were very thankful to have the lovely sunny weather in Cornwall... yes we LOVED being there! Thanks so much for watching and commenting!❤
@@MagentaOtterTravels your welcome. Your going on a Summer Holiday.
@@BensPlanesTrainsProductions it was supposed to be a holiday in July, but after rescheduling it four times due to the pandemic, we finally had the holiday in September. We were so fortunate that the weather held out for us, considering it was already autumn!
And to think ,about this time which is Christmas we go to see our family in the West Country and swirl in and out of Devon and Cornwall .But your vid cheered me up,thanks.👏🏻
Tony, I think the time of year is key. Wouldn't be so fun when it's freezing though I'd enjoy the ambience of a West Country manor or pub on a wintry day with a roaring fire.
Wonderfully put Dara.💃
This is a different Christmas for sure... so sad that our older son and his partner can't come be with us this holiday. But like so many people around the world, we will have to enjoy our "virtual" gatherings with family... and I will continue to enjoy my "virtual" visit back to the sunny beaches and towns of Cornwall. I'm glad you enjoyed this video. Looking forward to doing a few more of Cornwall in the coming weeks!
Ok, so Ian had to be promised Cornish ice cream if he ate a pasty, personally I'd prefer the pasty. Yes you do have to get them early in the morning, when they're freshly baked. Personal experience has taught me if you're in the shop after 10-10.30 am you risk a no pasty situation. The views are lovely, I haven't been to Cornwall for years, maybe when it's safe to travel again I'll go back.
Yes, by the time the weather is lovely again and people are vaccinated, hopefully you can take a nice trip to Cornwall! Would have been nice to get a pasty in the morning, but we were too busy hiking to a beach! haha
That's a tough choice, Cornish pasty, Cornish ice cream or Cornish cream tea... ALL GOOD!!!❤❤❤
Yes, I have a sweet tooth. This was my first time visiting Cornwall since the late 70's when my grandparents lived there. Definitely want to go when crowds aren't so bad. Mid-September was a good time though the gardens are past their prime.
Even in September, parking was a serious challenge.
Cornwall is 'good' in the winter, if you go to the north coast when there is a good storm blowing from off the Atlantic, the waves and sea conditions are spectacular to watch.
I have recently been looking at some photos of the Cornish coast during stormy winter weather, and they were amazing!
very nice upload , just awesome presentation from you and soo beautiful area there , thanks for sharing, Like 48. I wish you to have happy Holidays, see you soon again
Thanks so much! Danke Schoen!
I am so glad the gain outweighed the pain.
Absolutely! By a long shot!
Oh, like Poldark! Fabulous drone footage. Love the lounging cows - how tranquil! Really want to go back and visit Cornwall again, it is so beautiful and quaint.
Yes, I loved it. I already have a list of things I want to do when I go back!!
The struggle and strife .."the wife" ...cockney rhyming slang guess that cottage was a reference to the wife 🤣🤷😂
You are BRILLIANT! Now that you mention it, I have heard that cockney phrase, but I didn't connect the two. I bet some chap had that cottage built for his Mrs.! That is sweet!
@@MagentaOtterTravels I'd like to think so although it's trouble and strife for wife, but I prefer struggle and strife 🤣🤣🤣💕
Ian's drone footage was definitely a great asset to your videos
Thank you!
Thanks so much. YES I agree! I was well and truly chuffed that we were able to realise the dream of having Ian fly that drone over the coasts of Cornwall. We talked about that for literally MONTHS and were so worried it might not happen in 2020. Dream come true.❤
Love this vlog! So beautiful!!!
Thank you so much!!
Beautiful landscape ! and the ice cream looks tasty ! I'd like to travel there sometime 😊💕
Yes, I highly recommend!! Wonderful place to visit!
🤔 I thought cows lay down because it was going to rain, so much for that 'old wives tale' 🙄 looked more like sunbathing to me, glad you enjoyed 'chewing the cud' with the cows 😉
I always enjoy a nice "cow chat"! Yes, I've heard the saying about cows laying down meaning rain... but it was not rainy at all the week we met these spoilt cows. Thankfully for us!
Glad you had a great time and looking forward to hearing about the Pasties, though Ian suggested these were of variable quality...sadly, as you discovered, the best places very often sell out early. Years ago we discovered a really good place (sadly no more, I gather) in a location just outside Looe, and they were nearly always sold out by 1030 or so in the morning! Luckily we used to camp on a site just a couple of minute's drive away and often enjoyed them still warm for breakfast...
Yes, getting the best pasties warm from the oven is an acquired skill! I think you'll discover in the upcoming Pasty Quest video that Ian's impression of pasties has improved. 😉
I still have a mixed relationship with pasties. We did end up with some that were pretty good further along in the trip. Looe is another place we'll have to hit next time we're there.
@@ians3586 Looe is a bit of a touristy place, but honest about it...if you accept it for what it is, then it's great... I've got to be honest, I always far preferred it to Polperro, which I always felt was very picturesque but somehow a little fake...
Such good memories.
And good ICE CREAM!
Gorgeous places!
Yes, I agree! Cornwall was dreamy!
"....and probably Ian will insist to get some Cornish ice cream as well..." this didn't need to be mentioned 🤣😂🤣
True. It goes without saying.
He is very predictable that way ;-)
@@MagentaOtterTravels Yes he is LOL
Lovely part of the world. The first holiday/vacation I took with my wife (then girlfriend) was to Cornwall, staying in a cottage in Polruan, across the estuary from Fowey. I remember the walk to Lantic Bay -- the vertical distance, up and down, seemed greater than the horizontal distance travelled.
Yes, I loved visiting this area for so many reasons. The views were amazing, the villages were so fun to visit, the food was yummy... and the hikes up and down VERY steep inclines were a great workout! Good thing given all the pasties and ice cream we ate! LOL
Speaking of food, every time I see your username I think of "mac & cheese" ... and I do love cheese! Have you seen my Mousehole video? Totally silly but fun. I wonder if I'm the only person who craves cheese when they visit Mousehole??? th-cam.com/video/EV4T0dG2gl0/w-d-xo.html
@@MagentaOtterTravels I haven't had a 'Maccy-D' (McDonald's) for nearly ten years 😂 No, I'll have to check out your Mousehole video 👍
Another beautiful day out. It really is idyllic, Cornwall, and it's coastline. I've been to Fowey, and traveled that area, quite some time ago now. The beauty is it doesn't seem to change. And don't worry about the name, we all fall for that, Fowee pronunciation. Why would you think it's said as Foy! I think the Cornish are just messing with us tourists. Wish I'd picked up on Lantic bay when i was down there though, that looked amazing.
Even though I spent a lot of time in the 1970's in Cornwall when my grandparents lived there, I don't remember visiting most of these places we saw. I'm glad a place like Lantic Bay isn't better known. Even as it is, parking there (and just about everywhere in Cornwall) is very difficult.
@@ians3586 Aye, it's tricky to get the balance right. To an extent a lot of these places thrive on tourism, but huge numbers of visitors can make them a nightmare. You only have to look at the Lake District in summer. An incredibly beautiful place, though the grid lock on the roads, then the crowds when you arrive can take some of the joy out of it. You have to pick your time to visit these places carefully.
@@jfergs.3302 Yes, I refuse to visit the Lake District during British Summer Holidays. We took friends from the US there in 2019 in mid-September and it was actually perfect, not too crowded. Usually I'm disappointed when we're trying to see outdoorsy stuff and we end up with rain but that actually was good too. We drove from Grasmere to Loweswater (through Buttermere) and our friends were in awe of all the waterfalls we encountered during the driving rain.
Lantic Bay was definitely worth a visit... but if you go in the morning, you'll miss the fresh pasties in Fowey! haha
Yes, one of the things I love about Britain is that, like you say, it doesn't seem to change. You wander the streets of a small village in so many places throughout the country and feel like it is so similar to hundreds of years ago... if you can ignore the cars and clothes ;-)
April is a generally a decent month to visit Cornwall, after Easter and before the early summer madness. Sea can be very cold though!
beautiful
Yes, we were blessed with a fabulous day in Cornwall that day!!
Judging by the footage of the Ship Inn at Fowey, people there walk backwards!!😆🎞📽
That’s my awesome editing skillz! LOL... or I could fail to take responsibility and just try to convince you that everyone in Fowey walks backwards 😂
You don't know Bagpuss😂 Now that takes me back...
Nope! American 🇺🇸 child 😉
you both really do capture the britishness of the uk in your channel ,and you both looked very happy,dara you did look like the cat that got the cream .
Oh, thank you so much! And I love that idiom... I’ll have to remember that one! 🐱🥛 The two most British things said in this video: my pronunciation of “been” and the word “chuffed” 😉🇬🇧
@@MagentaOtterTravels yep i got the chuffed bit lol,but then thought your american viewers be thinking what the hell she on about but i enjoyed it none the less lol
@@ianjohnboy well, if they are watching my channel, they are ready to learn 😉
@@MagentaOtterTravels well i hope they are, you both do well, your whole family do great promoting the uk and your fellow americans should take note that the uk not london and may i just say ,ian the times with your grandparent must have been glorious for you as a child ,and even more so as a adult,i can see why you would want to share it with the ones you love .
@@ianjohnboy definitely have good memories. My grandparents were National Trust members and I was one of those strange children who enjoyed visiting old manor houses and gardens. They lived in what used to be a tithe barn in the village of Veryan, which will be featured in an upcoming video. Of course the fact that things are so different over there than they are in Texas (or California where I grew up) add to the appeal.
Re the Fowey band blue sign. Check out the Morecambe & Wise sketch with Andre Previn which inspired the quotation.
Haha, yes I did watch that video after I published this video and heard about it... very funny!!!
Les Dawson the comedian I think popularised that method of playing.piano....
And Morecambe and Wise popularised that phrase when they spoke to Andre Previn on stage..
OK, you'll have to remind me what you are referring to... sorry to be daft!
@@MagentaOtterTravels the sign that said....they play the correct notes on the piano,but not necessarily in the right order....
@@david-lt9wj oh! Ha ha, good to know!
@@MagentaOtterTravels An excerpt from the Morecambe and Wise skit:-
th-cam.com/video/uMPEUcVyJsc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=MarkAshleyG
@@MagentaOtterTravels Dara, That quote "playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order" is one of the most famous quotes in the UK. I have found a video of the sketch, please watch and enjoy the silliness of Morecambe and Wise th-cam.com/video/uMPEUcVyJsc/w-d-xo.html
Probably someone has already mentioned it in the comments, but Fowey was home to Daphne DuMaurier, author of The Birds, Don't Look Now and Rebecca.
I'll tell you a secret. For our trip in September 2020, my hubby Ian did all the travel planning. I just tagged along for the ride and rarely knew where we were going and what the places were known for! Only after I got home months later would I try to research and learn about the towns. This was very exhausting and difficult for me... and I only scratched the surface. So no, I didn't know about the Daphne DuMaurier connection until after I published the video and people told me about it!
This summer 2021 I changed my approach. I researched places BEFORE we filmed there... and it worked out much better! My Northumberland videos reflect that new approach, which is why they have so much more historical information in them ;-)
And I can't wait to edit and publish my Cotswolds series. That is my favourite part of Britain and I hope the series is great!!!
Not into 100 but into l20, when we moved todecima🎉
Cornwall is absolutely gorgeous.
Route is pronounced root not rout!
Cornwall lived up to all the hype of what I had heard. I absolutely loved it!
As for "route"... that is a funny word. In Britain it is "root" and in America it is both "root" and "rowt". Where I grew up, we might call Route 66 "Root" 66, but then we would say you find a new "rowt" home due to a traffic jam. And then the thing in your home that gives you WiFi signal is ALWAYS a "rowter" everywhere in the US. We never say "rooter" for router. So strange!
@@MagentaOtterTravels Very strange. My sister lives in the USA and says router not rooter. Luckily we understand each other!
@@jillhobson6128 Close enough that we can figure out what each other are saying.😉
There's a belief in Britain that if the cows are lying down it's going to rain.
It's an old wives' tale but apparently there's some truth in it
Yeah, I've heard that one too. When I was growing up in California they used to say that dogs could sense that an earthquake was about to happen and would start to cry right before the event. Not sure how true that one is.
Yes, my mother in law always says that... and she lives in cattle country. But on the day/week we filmed this, it was all sun and no rain. These were just sunbathing cows, LOL!
@@ians3586 There was a TV documentary a couple of years ago about dogs. They can sense earthquakes, if their owners have a seizure, diabetic coma.
It also seems they can navigate like birds do, eg magnetic fields etc.
Can't wait to experience your pasty taste-tests!! They look SO good. I wonder what the ingredients are. Did you get different varieties, or are they all basically meat-vege kinds of things? Of course, ice cream is my primary interest, so am glad you let us enjoy that with you both. What a beautiful day weather-wise too. Was the water cold at the beach? Loved the cows too, although they don't seem to be in any danger of tumbling down that steep hill, thank goodness; do they just "know" not to go too near the steep parts, I wonder?? BTW, Dara, will you still do a video a week from today, Christmas Day? I hope so!!
Responding in reverse order: On Christmas Day there will be a special video... not a travel vlog ;-) Yes, I think the cows know not to bother going down the steep slope. They stay on top where the grazing is good. Lazing and grazing... the life of a cow! Speaking of animals on steep slopes, I can't wait to show the mountain goats in North Devon... they were FEARLESS!
The water was a bit cold for my liking. Brits would swim in that water, but not me. Not to mention, we didn't have time for swimming. Too much to cram into the day when you are on a action-packed holiday with Ian Sandland! haha
Pasties have a very flaky crust and are traditionally filled with meat and veg, but of course there are lots of veggie (and CHEESE!) versions these days as well.
Final topic: I sent you a fun FB messenger message yesterday. Have you seen it?
No, I did not see the FB message - but have now replied. Thanks for the heads-up!! :-)
Ingredients for a traditional Cornish is beef (diced small, not minced), swede (aka rutabaga in USA) & onion +salt/pepper. All goes in raw.
@@andyrjs I still think eating Swedes is funny 🇸🇪
Forgot potato!
You rarely hear of anybody called Lance these days...but in medieval times men were called Lance a lot.
😂😂😂
wait till you try , Joes Ice Cream in Wales
We have a Welsh cousin named Joe, wonder if he started an ice cream company... LOL
Seriously, we will have to look out for that next time we cross the border! Cheers! Dara
I'm Northern English and I pronounced it incorrectly until advised by a friend. I was there 2020 and remember seeing the sign mentioned.
Fowey is a very fun place to visit! But as you say... how would you know it's pronunciation unless someone told you? LOL
Hello again, I live in Dorset at the very start of the Jurassic Coast near Durdle Door, and 13:46 am very fond of Cornwall. Do you know why the cafe is called Jam First? Here’s a clue, were you in Devon it would have been called Cream First! Keep up the good work👍
I REALLY want to visit the Dorset coast and see Durdle Door! I am definitely team #CreamFirst... what is your preference?
You’ll love Dorset and the Isle of Purbeck is beautiful , from Corfe Castle to Lulworth Cove and Old Harry to Man O War Bay and Durdle Dor. You must drop in for a cuppa. In Dorset we don’t get hung up on the whole Jam/Cream first nonsense - I always do jam first though as it’s more of a desert to me so the cream is a topping/accompaniment! I guess it’s six of one tbf as it all tastes the same!
@@simondean8710 I really want to explore Dorset, and return to Cornwall. But I think this summer most of our trips will be going north...
But thanks so much for the recommendations! We will make it there eventually! Cheers! Dara
Lantic Bay may be clsoer to the "real" Poldark than you realise. In the later 18th Century and the first third of the 19th, Fowey was a hotbed of smuggling, and one of the principle places to unload "cargo" (usually brandy). Ther were many conflicts with the Riding Officers, the Dragoons and the Preventive Officers. It appears from contemporary records that almost the whole population were with the smugglers rather than the authorities!
Oh my word, that is FASCINATING! A town full of smugglers! haha
I did feel like Lantic Bay was the perfect secluded spot for smuggling ;-)
Thanks for your comment! I really appreciate hearing more background info on the places we visit!
Cheers XX Dara
"We were so CHUFFED.................." ?
You've been talking to Englishmen again ;-)
I love the word chuffed! And yes... I talk to Englishmen on a daily basis 😉
The culture of Cornish towns is DFL's have bought everywhere for holiday homes..
What’s is DFL?
@@MagentaOtterTravels a. “Down from London...”....person..the London pound is manyfold and so they sold to them..a famous DFL is david Cameron,or Gordon.Ramsey..Hugh Grant,Dawn French..
I was in padstow once at 5pm....and the unsold pasties were being sold cheap as chips...
Yes, Padstow is the other town we visited on Pasty Quest! Hopefully I will be able to edit that video together soon... so much editing, and so little time with everything else going on in my life! 😜
It must have been a rare slow day, every time I've been to Padstow it's been a game of hunt the pasty shop with any left by 11 am :-)
We may have something to say about Padstow Pasties in a future vlog.
@@ians3586 I've got something to say about "tasty pasties " in bude.....theyre fabulous...and so much variety...but the holy grail Is the tinners pastie....half fruit pie half meat and veg....
And don't leave me in suspenders about padstow pasties please...
@@dragonmac1234 we were there sometime in June..precovid ..and the problem was should we buy a few more?
The quote on the blue plaque "playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order" is a quote from a famous Morecambe and Wise sketch. th-cam.com/video/uMPEUcVyJsc/w-d-xo.html
Sorry for the delayed response. All comments with links get sent to a holding place till I review them... and I often forget to look there! I watched the clip. Very funny! Thanks for telling me the history of the quote. Nice to know!
I am British and have called it fowey for about fifty years until I discovered it was pronounced for.
Just another example of a British place name that nobody would say "correctly" unless they were instructed on how it's pronounced by a local!
No clotted cream?
Trust me, there is plenty of clotted cream coming soon! You know I had to have my cream teas in Cornwall 😋
it is said that if cows are sitting down it is going to rain
I grew up in dairy farming country and heard the same thing. However, it wasn’t true this day in Cornwall! It was sunny and glorious all the days we were there ☀️
I know when I was out in Riverside in California, the cows weren't spoilt at all, the poor things were in a coral of mud eating through metal bars 🤔😪
Tragic! I guess that’s a case of false advertising on the part of the California dairy association..
@@MagentaOtterTravels li know, some of my family live out that way and it was quite shocking seeing how the farms were run and how the workers lived in metal shacks who picked the lemons , but they all seemed to have $50k pick up trucks by the side of there makeshift homes of corrugated metal ....quite strange to see....the cows up in Washington State though are spoilt , now that's a beautiful state , I can see why so many Brits live there , similar weather and beautiful countryside , my cousin's live in Olympia and it's beautiful up there 💕
Yes, Oregon and Washington are lovely! And more like Britain in their climate and green-ness! My English FIL has lived there for decades ;-)
@@MagentaOtterTravels my favourite two states , then Virginia and then Colorado 💕
My favourite beaches are widemouth bay n.cornwall.....and whitesands bay ,Pembrokeshire...both surfing beaches...
Lantic is on my bucket list....
So many great beaches to visit in Cornwall! We just got started... definitely need another (longer) visit there!
Pembrokeshire is on our list. We want to visit Skomer and return to Tenby and Caldey Island (love the chocolate there). We'll add Whitesands bay to the iternary.
@@ians3586 make sure you book up to stay in "The cabin" at whitesands bay...for a dreamy stay...
Check it out on the net....its glorious...but book well ahead..like 2 years, .but there are other gorgeous places around the bay now if you search..
@@ians3586 I tried to visit skomer once....and I realised that you have to plan it really well.....my intended visit was aborted due to difficult lanes and difficult sailing arrangements...and difficult weather...and I think parking was a problem too..
But I think you're probably a whiz at that sort of game..so let me know what skomer's like please..
Whereas Ramsey island off whitesands bay....is a breeze to get to and it's a bundle of fun...
@@ians3586 Take some walks on the Pembrokeshire coast path.
Visit St Davids, Britain's smallest city. The cathedral and bishop's palace are absolutely amazing.
It's such an attractive place.
Hello my dear, are you aware of a TH-cam channel called Babble Top ? it is food based they have LOADS of vids on candy they have one list with lots of parts entitled 10 candy bars America wished they had . it gives the full history of both the product and the company also the likelhood of being able to purchase said items outside their own country you might enjoy it, but, turn down the volume a little.do you remember Adam Richman ? he's got a series up called Adam Richman's quest for the best featuring UK biscuit reviews he tastes them dry then dunked, give you something to look forward to on your return ATB Bill
