I love all the elaborate outfits here. People are very friendly there. And this makes the event so fun. This is the best guide! It's no wonder that you got so many people to watch this one. 🤩🤩✌like 294
Hi Kenzo thank you! We attended this years event on Saturday it was fabulous (this Friday’s video to come) we wanted to do something for all visiting Whitby during this event! Hope you are well, thanks again ❤️
Yes Nick and Jill! What more could you want than an ultimate guide to the goth weekend!! So cool to see around and learning the best spots to hit when visiting. Definitely going to think about joining an event at some point!! Loving the variety of costumes, interesting to see how they create those costumes!! So interesting. That bridge with the people is so mental haha!! you braved it for us, thank you! Those doggos in the buggy were adorable! so creative even for the pets! Mister chips seems the place to be! Loving seeing more of the drapers and Linda and Ade's costumes, they were just fantastic. Thank you for this guide, just excellent! xx
Cheers Alessa we attended this years event on Saturday it was epic (this weeks video) We may have made a little more effort than usual 😉 Hope you guys are having a good week 🖤💙

Aaaww thanks Simon we actually visited this years event on Saturday which will be this Fridays video! We had a blast! We do love these festivals! Hope you are well and your week is off to a good start 👍❤️
I can feel atmosphere actually, brilliant work! You may not notice this because you are shooting and editing every day, but we (the audience) who are watching can notice the progress in every segment! Narration, editing, camera positioning….
thank you so much Ervin, it feels like baby steps, but hopefully it will become better over time. thank you so much for amazing support and inspiration.
Hi Jill & Nick, your videos of the Whitby Goth Weekend are always a joy to watch! ❤🖤 A great idea to give folks a guide as to what to expect and a peak at previous Goth Weekends. The costumes are always absolutely fabulous and the people so lovely and friendly. Can't wait to see your video for November 2024! 🤗❤
You crushed it 😮 look at those views! I love the goth fest and the vibe and atmosphere of all these amazing people we see repeating! Recognize so many! Great coverage!
Fantastic video! You guys are pros at attending Goth Weekend, so you are the perfect guides to share the best advice!! I hadn't seen the abbey illuminated before... that was cool. Great to show the east pier as a place to escape the crowds!
Ohhh it’s going to be amazing event. Look forward to seeing your costumes 😊. I just love how people get to involved in it. Can wait to see the video ❤️
Wow! Very interesting and exotic! This kind of your traditional culture is somewhat exotic tome, but very interrsting! It's really nice to get a glimpse of your traditional culture through your video! Thanks for sharing, my dear friend! Hello! Greetings again from 100tour KOREA! Stay in touch, my dear friend! See you again! Have a wonderful week!
Hello Nick and Jill, loved the walk around and looking at the different costumes, will be looking forward to seeing your costumes, good luck with the weather, take care x Julie and Tony x
We watched this on tv last night. The costumes are just amazing. We are actually starting to recognise regulars now too! One day we'll get to Whitby on a Goth weekend, it looks so much fun. Cheers 🍻
Great video folks...sorry for the late watch, been under the weather, getting behind on watching videos...must knuckle down and catch up...always love these goth videos, so many great characters.
I was reading on the BBC a few days ago, that the Whitby Goth weekend was coming up and I figured the two of you would be there! Looks like so much fun. Everyone has such totally amazing costumes. 😊👍
Ive got a bit more confident with them now Dara, I try to get exceptionally high above them before I start filming. at the furthest point you can see 100s of them about 400 foot below the drone.
I feel a though those costumes get more and more elaborate each and every year! Absolutely amazing!! Just everyone out enjoying themselves and having a good time!!
thank you Andy, look forward to seeing you. no doubt it will be a very slow queue up those steps today! there is a gentler slope that runs adjacent to it that will also be quieter..
Whitby’s definitely giving off the perfect Gothic vibes for this festival! Looks like such a cool experience as always. 🖤 ‘no concert, too noisy’, LoL even Goths need a quiet night! 😂 The high street series is very popular 👍 Wooo that bridge 😳Those 199 steps look intense, but the view at the top hasn't disappointed yet! The diversity and creativity at this festival are incredible! It’s great seeing people of all ages and backgrounds celebrating together. 😊 The Whitby Goth Festival looks amazing! Thanks for all the insider tips, especially the heads-up about the long food lines.
Cheers guys this was footage from previous events we attended this years on Saturday (video this week) it was as fabulous as ever! Hope you are both well and having a great week ❤️
Hi Jaune we had a great Saturday at this years event! And yes we did put in abit more effort but by eck it took us forever to get anywhere for people wanting pictures so the dressing up won’t be a constant thing just every now and then! more to come this week! 👍
Incredible costumes! I love hearing you chat with the friendly people! Even cute little doggies all dressed up! Thank you for sharing the goth weekend, it’s always entertaining and I always love it! 👍😊🇨🇦
Just loving all the costumes and the effort people make. I do look forward to seeing you Jill in your costume, next week. You have to work on Nicholas's outfit. Amazing Event, thats for sure. Thank you for a great vlog review. Have a great weekend Jill and Nicholas. 👍🏼🙏🏼🤠♥🎃
Thanks guys We attended yesterday and it was fabulous! I did dress up and have since decided to only dress up at the main ones so Lincoln Steampunk and Whitby Goth in October! there will be makeup, accessories and Hugo at the other events but it really slowed us down yesterday as lots of people wanted to take photos! But it was a great day! Now Nick needs to get his edit on and I too look forward to next weeks video 👍❤️
Hi Nick and Jill these are our favourite videos along with the steam punk ones we love them. Whitby is the perfect place for it. Wolfy Honey and Bambi were great shame about Wolfies costume no longer fitting 😢 . Didn't the shops look fantastic. There are so many great costumes we always enjoy seeing them. Lucy did look a little under the weather 😆. Dave says he wishes we had smelly vision as he loves kippers although I always follow him round with fresh air spray afterwards . A great guide to this fabulous event. We hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. A big 👍 Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤️
Thanks Charles for watching and taking the time to comment always great to hear from people! We visited this years event yesterday (next weeks video) it was super! Have a great week 👍
Oh I so enjoy your Goth weekend videos. Time and again you entertain me and show off the beauty of the area as well. Good idea to film before the masses arrive. Great editing and lovely shots. Thanks Nick and Jill. Awesome. 👻🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Guys what a weekend - we loved every minute of it. So sad we still didn’t get to meet up. Looking forward to your vlog as I’m sure we missed loads this year! ❤ Rachel & David 💗💗
Thanks guys yours was fab you captured a lot we missed also! Must arrange a better meet up next time 👍 where you guys heading next? much love and cuddles to Roxy 🐶x
Hi Nick and Jill You nailed it! What's the fabulous walking tour and interviews! Every single participant is authentic and the Goth spirits are in the air OMGoodness, somany PPL, I worried if the bridge cannot hold of all the weight, hahha Not only restaurants, but strolling local businesses is something special to visitors. Get-away spot is superb! It will be gorgeous turned out this weekend. You executed! Apologies, my internet was weak and had to keep refreshing.. Fully replayed through the film now. Thank YOU.
I love seeing all of the wonderful costumes and around town the decorations have been taken to another level from when we recently visited. So much great information for anyone planning on going to the event. Wow the bridge was sooo busy. Which is really good for Whitby, but a bit of a nightmare to get around. So many friendly folk there though! Have a great weekend guys.
Yeah, loved the drone footage! A concert too noisy!.........so many wonderful people and the weather is looking good for the next two days....well, no rain anyway but at least in that gridlock you will always be nice and warm :o). Dare I say it, I may try a pie and mash tomorrow - yikes! So looking forward to tomorrow and hope to see you out and about, cheers Alan
mmm, a pie and mash, now thats a great shout and will make for an interesting review too. I really enjoyed the Cornish pastie I had from Whitby last year, if the queues aren’t mental I might go for one of those again today. (we did have mister chips earlier this week when we filmed this) hope to see you soon!
yes it got us really excited for the event too, not sure how many pickup shots we will get today as it will more likely be us glued to the whale bones and St Mary’s.
Oh we must must must return for one of these .. Wonderful and the sombrero was a favourite! Like the background music too in this … very fitting.. Thx for sharing this
You are so right John we absolutely love Whitby and it is amazing with our offering an event! However it is also impressive how it’s the same council as Scarborough but the amount of events it offers through out the year is exceptional and they have something so right! thank you for your great comment! have a great week ahead 👍
Cheers! We attended this years event on Saturday and it was as fabulous as ever (video this coming Friday) We thoroughly enjoy everything about these festivals! Hope you guys are having a great week 👍💙
Some awesome people and outfits! Wow, as someone who doesn't like crowds I'm not sure I'd be very patient crossing that bridge 😂 The fella with the mariachi outfit wouldn't have looked out of his place where I am at the Day of the Dead ceremonies! Blimey, Jill and Nick you're quite the celebrities around town these days, everyone's seen your videos! Great drone and timelapse images guys, wow, and the suspenseful music! Great job!
Looks a fabulous weekend if you don't mind crowds. Actually a lot more crowded than the last event and especially crossing that bridge, it was like a football crowd! I bet the shops did well and great to coincide with Halloween. I remember the couple at around 9.15 with the grotesque from previous events. The Goths sure go all in on the event with some awesome costumes. I think I'd be heading off to the pier for a bit of calm, maybe with a bag of fish n chips 🙂
Cheers Paul we attended this years event on Saturday which will be this weeks video! It was just brilliant but exceptionally busy! Hope you are having a great week 👍
Some cool looking costumes and creepy dolls . Wow, so many steps. 199, thanks for taking us along with you. Generation Xplorers Generation Xperiences 👍
I lived there when I was a child & that fish & chip shop always been busy waiting a hr to get in .. 25 years ago I’m talking & it’s still the same 😂 memories love it
Aaww thanks for getting in touch Amanda and sharing your memories! Where are you in the world now? Do you get chance to revisit Whitby? Hope you are having a great weekend! 👍
Been to whitby twice its so beautifull and amazing l wish l could live rhere always l want to live there if l won lots of money 💰 l be happy always 😊 thanks for making the vlogg for of us to see god bless you always 😊😊😊
@@StephenRobertd thank you Stephen, us too, we don’t live too far away Scarborough, took us 30 years to afford to live there but im with you, a lottery win from moving up to Whitby,that would be fabulous!
It’s such a shame, I definitely don’t want to encourage such behaviour, I was there today and it was worse than ever, people leaning on gravestones, practically knocking them over for fun in front of our eyes. Talked to a professional photographer up there that works for the national press, he won’t photograph them and I didn’t too, hope more can be done to dissuade and penalise these non goth, non British photo peeps..
Sorry I missed it... but The Cure started their live from the London concert... Just catch up with this now. Love Whitby and hope I one day catch Gothic Weekend too 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hi there! They hold 2 Steampunk one’s February & July, 2 Goth ones April & October and a Krampus one in December. They are fun we had a great time yesterday at this years (next weeks video) 👍
@@GENerationXplorers Me & Mrs K. ❤ Whitby. When we reach retirement in 10yrs We're definitely making a permanent move to the North Yorkshire Coast. In the meantime ,we go to Whitby .. Most years ,so if we're in town and you're there. I would ❤ to meet up with you ❤ly guys. G❤x
@iandawe948 It’s been like that a few years now and gives people more options! They don’t have to attend all of them! We have found most people have there favourite! 👍 have a great weekend Ian x
good evening my mates nick and the lovely lady jill. its really good to see you. you bloke go to some wonderful places. what did you do for halloween? i watched paranormal youtubes videos dressed as doctor who. what was your favorite episode nick and jill? i liked pyramids of mars. and my favorite companion was sarah jane. my favorite doctor was lon pertwee and tom baker. i liked the military aspect of the jon pertwee eara. i think i saw every episode ever made. i have most of the dvds. have a good weekend mates.
Hi Kris wow you are a true dedicated fan! Tom Baker was our favourite Doctor I (Jill) loved the Daleks and Nick particularly liked The Sea Devils episode! We didn’t do much for actual Halloween night! But visited this years Whitby goth event Saturday which will be Friday comings video! I will email you some pictures! x 💙🖤
Thanks for another great video, I have a question to ask, every video I see of the harbour bridge at Whitby there is a shot of a shop with a Polar Bear on the roof . Why is it there please? and is it anything to do with Foxs Glacier Mints ?.
great question Max, there is actually a fantastic story behind it. the famous Whaler William Scoresby travelled to the Arctic on his whaling expeditions and brought a pet Polar Bear back to Whitby which is to be believed to have entertained crowds in the Harbour!
so sorry you can’t make it Brian, we were there again today and it was brilliant, not quite as busy as last October but full on brilliant, video to follow..
You will love it ,,, I went yesterday it was brilliant ,,,they do 2 goth weekends a year, April and November,,,you need to go next year you will love it
Oh superb, I missed todays event, was there all day yesterday (video to follow), let me know when you have your video up id love to see what I missed today. I know Dean was there today and was sad to miss him.
Amazing how much bigger it seems every time you visit. The costumes are getting better too. But it looks like half them are Stephen and Hilary. 😂 Crap weekend if you really felt like fish'n'chips though. 😂
Stephen and Hilary are everywhere and always dressing different. I’m sure they have clones! 😂 getting fish and chips is a problem on both weekend mind. we were interviewing people today and the smell of fish and chips was driving us mad, we took to driving to the outskirts to get a portion! the lengths we have to go to! hope your having an amazing weekend!
id say over 90% are genuine lifetime goths, there are a 10% that cease the opportunity to join in and its an inclusive event so I’m glad they do. attending the event seems to incur a prerequisite to dress up. and lets not forget that dressing in black, wearing pale makeup and dark eyeliner was the OG dressing up as Goth, it carries through to this day, the spirit and people have stayed the same but the people who choose not to attend these wonderful events cannot get there heads around why these lovely goths dress up for this occasion.
Yeah I thought that, they don't look like your average goth and before any one says how would I know, I've been going to rock clubs and goth gigs for around 40 years!
LB 😂😂 yes there was a fair share of creepy dolls on this one! I shouldn’t say but Jill is dressing up today and I will be wearing a LOT of makeup! and there will be more creepy dolls! 😂
@@GENerationXplorers yup thats why everything in Whitby is so dear , the cost of fish and chips are really bad if you move down the coast to Scarborough they are a lot cheaper then if you go onto Bridlington even cheaper still. I used to go to Whitby for my jolly hols when i was a kid 50+ years ago but now i wont even go for a day trip there to commercial now and way over priced
@andrewhorner1078 ah me too Andrew, in the 80s Whitby was considered to be “quite run down” but my family loved it, was taken there a lot and even before Goths were a thing I loved the Gothic vibe of the place. I made the life decision to move to Scarborough (glad I did) and yes things are a lot cheaper in Scarborough than Whitby but yes since moving here, you’ve guessed it I’ve fallen in love with Brid. Thats shocking news about the stalls but to be fair Whitby gets the highest shop footfall out of the three places.
@@GENerationXplorers I love Scarbaydos and Brid last holiday i had was in scarborough in fact we went twice in the same year stayed in a house just over hangmans bridge next to the hairdressers
@andrewhorner1078 watch out Andrew it gets under your skin! Years of family holidays as a kid and then me coming on holidays here for another 15 years before I finally thought enough is enough, I have to move! Been here 20 years, never regretted it for a second, but since moving here I’ve a new found love for Brid, the place is incredible. Id happily live in either place!
yeah there was a LOT more of that today sadly, even worse, people leaning against grave stones that looked likely to topple. something should be done about that..
There is a certain group that go up to the graves and are more disrespectful than ever now of the graves, gravestones and buried people there but that is NOT representative of the millions of Goths that attend this event. Maybe get out and meet some of the people, talk to them and see for yourself, rather than getting annoyed about one small group of “just” cosplayers that head up to St Mary’s for every event.
Here is the pain of a bullet ant 😅😅😅 Bullet ants (Paraponera clavata) have the most painful sting of any insect, and the pain can last for up to 24 hours
I love all the elaborate outfits here. People are very friendly there. And this makes the event so fun. This is the best guide! It's no wonder that you got so many people to watch this one. 🤩🤩✌like 294

Fantastic video! You guys are pros at attending Goth Weekend, so you are the perfect guides to share the best advice!!
I hadn't seen the abbey illuminated before... that was cool.
Great to show the east pier as a place to escape the crowds!
just charging and updating the drone now, plan on staying a lot later tonight to get some aerial footage of the Abbey illuminated.
It's fun to see the Halloween decor all over Whitby!
I’m glad we got to see it like that earlier this week, I wonder if they will have kept it up for the weekend? Will find out soon.. 🧐
Awesome share
So beautiful ❤️
Enjoyed watching ur video

Get-away spot is superb! It will be gorgeous turned out this weekend.

should be a great one Garry, see you soon!
The event looks fantastic but just seeing Whitby alone is just as interesting.
You are so right John we absolutely love Whitby and it is amazing with our offering an event! However it is also impressive how it’s the same council as Scarborough but the amount of events it offers through out the year is exceptional and they have something so right! thank you for your great comment! have a great week ahead 👍
It's dress up time again in the UK. You guys always cover this event well. So many people oooh 😮
A lot of cool people
Nice video guys 👍👍
Cheers! We attended this years event on Saturday and it was as fabulous as ever (video this coming Friday) We thoroughly enjoy everything about these festivals! Hope you guys are having a great week 👍💙
Great intro to the world of WGW - wonder what all those colourful folk look like when the shadows gather and the dead of night falls.
wow mono live this comment! we wonder too 👍🖤
Some awesome people and outfits! Wow, as someone who doesn't like crowds I'm not sure I'd be very patient crossing that bridge 😂 The fella with the mariachi outfit wouldn't have looked out of his place where I am at the Day of the Dead ceremonies! Blimey, Jill and Nick you're quite the celebrities around town these days, everyone's seen your videos! Great drone and timelapse images guys, wow, and the suspenseful music! Great job!
loved the Day of the Dead outfits, now that is an event I would love to see in person. Cant wait to see your footage of that!
Looks a fabulous weekend if you don't mind crowds. Actually a lot more crowded than the last event and especially crossing that bridge, it was like a football crowd! I bet the shops did well and great to coincide with Halloween. I remember the couple at around 9.15 with the grotesque from previous events. The Goths sure go all in on the event with some awesome costumes. I think I'd be heading off to the pier for a bit of calm, maybe with a bag of fish n chips 🙂
Cheers Paul we attended this years event on Saturday which will be this weeks video! It was just brilliant but exceptionally busy! Hope you are having a great week 👍
Great goth vlog gang goths
such a fabulous event x
Some cool looking costumes and creepy dolls . Wow, so many steps. 199, thanks for taking us along with you. Generation Xplorers Generation Xperiences 👍
thanks so much Adzey, have an amazing weekend!
@GENerationXplorers Thanks you both, too 👍
I lived there when I was a child & that fish & chip shop always been busy waiting a hr to get in .. 25 years ago I’m talking & it’s still the same 😂 memories love it
Aaww thanks for getting in touch Amanda and sharing your memories! Where are you in the world now? Do you get chance to revisit Whitby? Hope you are having a great weekend! 👍
I do want to have Magpie F&C sometime... maybe in the middle of May on a Tuesday at 11:30am?
Spot on, it’s a date! 👍
@@GENerationXplorers I love great fish and chips, but Ian would never agree to waiting an hour in a queue
@@MagentaOtterTravels you can probably divide that by 4 in May on a Tuesday (and hopefully still get made to order!)
Hi! Excellent video my friend. Great footage. +309
Kind regards.
Thanks for visiting Tanya have a great day 👍
Been to whitby twice its so beautifull and amazing l wish l could live rhere always l want to live there if l won lots of money 💰 l be happy always 😊 thanks for making the vlogg for of us to see god bless you always 😊😊😊
@@StephenRobertd thank you Stephen, us too, we don’t live too far away Scarborough, took us 30 years to afford to live there but im with you, a lottery win from moving up to Whitby,that would be fabulous!
Too many people buying second homes in Whitby which out prices the locals.
It’s wrong.
I believe St Mary’s Church made the request quite a few years ago that visitors be more respectful to family and relatives that are buried there.
It’s such a shame, I definitely don’t want to encourage such behaviour, I was there today and it was worse than ever, people leaning on gravestones, practically knocking them over for fun in front of our eyes. Talked to a professional photographer up there that works for the national press, he won’t photograph them and I didn’t too, hope more can be done to dissuade and penalise these non goth, non British photo peeps..
@@GENerationXplorers Wasn’t sure if church had notices up at sometime, like you said non goth etc. will say hello to ya at Krampus x
Very nice ❤
Thank you x
brilliant
Cheers Adam 👍
Sorry I missed it... but The Cure started their live from the London concert...
Just catch up with this now. Love Whitby and hope I one day catch Gothic Weekend too 🥰🥰🥰🥰
its so cool having the Cure doing concerts and albums again, definitely one of my all time favourite groups!
@GENerationXplorers one of mine too. And it's great they did this extra for free, for fans in whole World 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Great costumes! 👍👍😊😊 Another great video from Whitby. How often do they do this festival?
Hi there! They hold 2 Steampunk one’s February & July, 2 Goth ones April & October and a Krampus one in December. They are fun we had a great time yesterday at this years (next weeks video) 👍
Hey Nick & Jill

G❤x
Im not a Goth or anything but
You all look ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC ❤❤
ah thank you thats such a nice comment!
Brilliant 👍👍👍👍👍
thank you Christopher!
Always good to watch these videos. Still think they should merge goth and steampunk into the one weekend. All being well hope to be going up next year
They are fabulous events and now 4 a year! 2 steampunk and 2 goth ones! 👍
@@GENerationXplorers
To be honest. I think that might be 2 too many. Not sure most people will be able to do 4 events a year.
@iandawe948 It’s been like that a few years now and gives people more options! They don’t have to attend all of them! We have found most people have there favourite! 👍 have a great weekend Ian x
good evening my mates nick and the lovely lady jill. its really good to see you. you bloke go to some wonderful places. what did you do for halloween? i watched paranormal youtubes videos dressed as doctor who. what was your favorite episode nick and jill? i liked pyramids of mars. and my favorite companion was sarah jane. my favorite doctor was lon pertwee and tom baker. i liked the military aspect of the jon pertwee eara. i think i saw every episode ever made. i have most of the dvds. have a good weekend mates.
Hi Kris wow you are a true dedicated fan! Tom Baker was our favourite Doctor I (Jill) loved the Daleks and Nick particularly liked The Sea Devils episode! We didn’t do much for actual Halloween night! But visited this years Whitby goth event Saturday which will be Friday comings video! I will email you some pictures! x 💙🖤
Thanks for another great video, I have a question to ask, every video I see of the harbour bridge at Whitby there is a shot of a shop with a Polar Bear on the roof . Why is it there please? and is it anything to do with Foxs Glacier Mints ?.
great question Max, there is actually a fantastic story behind it. the famous Whaler William Scoresby travelled to the Arctic on his whaling expeditions and brought a pet Polar Bear back to Whitby which is to be believed to have entertained crowds in the Harbour!
I filmed the Goth Weekend early in 2023 and see here some of the same faces. I'm sad I can't visit again this time
so sorry you can’t make it Brian, we were there again today and it was brilliant, not quite as busy as last October but full on brilliant, video to follow..
Are you coming to the Krampus Run again this year?
we certainly are, very excited for that one!
I love it ! I want to go !
You will love it ,,, I went yesterday it was brilliant ,,,they do 2 goth weekends a year, April and November,,,you need to go next year you will love it
it’s such an amazing event, hope you do get to go, we haven’t missed one for about twenty years now!
thanks Neil, the more the merrier!
I was there today filming
Oh superb, I missed todays event, was there all day yesterday (video to follow), let me know when you have your video up id love to see what I missed today. I know Dean was there today and was sad to miss him.
Like 2 Notification set 👍 See you soon 😊
thank you Adzey!
@GENerationXplorers No worries 👍
That picture looks more like a Halloween party to me.
This event happens around Halloween but it is a great event! a must if you fancy the experience xx thank you ❤️
Amazing how much bigger it seems every time you visit. The costumes are getting better too. But it looks like half them are Stephen and Hilary. 😂 Crap weekend if you really felt like fish'n'chips though. 😂
Stephen and Hilary are everywhere and always dressing different. I’m sure they have clones! 😂 getting fish and chips is a problem on both weekend mind. we were interviewing people today and the smell of fish and chips was driving us mad, we took to driving to the outskirts to get a portion! the lengths we have to go to! hope your having an amazing weekend!
I am On the road, watching...I may have difficulty participating in the chat
No problem Ms Kayak, we know you are with us in spirit ♥️have a good trip
Great Video 👍 seems a bit packed 😅😅 if you had bullet ants they would all run away 😅😅😅😅
🐜😂
try dragon con atlanta labor day weekend
That sounds a great event, just googled it! little far for us but looks great 👍
Where are the real Goths, these are just some sort of Cosplay
id say over 90% are genuine lifetime goths, there are a 10% that cease the opportunity to join in and its an inclusive event so I’m glad they do. attending the event seems to incur a prerequisite to dress up. and lets not forget that dressing in black, wearing pale makeup and dark eyeliner was the OG dressing up as Goth, it carries through to this day, the spirit and people have stayed the same but the people who choose not to attend these wonderful events cannot get there heads around why these lovely goths dress up for this occasion.
Exactly!
Yeah I thought that, they don't look like your average goth and before any one says how would I know, I've been going to rock clubs and goth gigs for around 40 years!
I think those percentages are the wrong way round.
Goths don’t “dress up” it’s everyday.
Don’t get me wrong, they don’t bother me, just don’t call them goths.
Creepy doll warning😂 It does look like fun though. Yea that doll did look a little pale too😂 you guys got to dress up next time👍🏼
LB 😂😂 yes there was a fair share of creepy dolls on this one! I shouldn’t say but Jill is dressing up today and I will be wearing a LOT of makeup! and there will be more creepy dolls! 😂
So many people! I hope the dinosaur will be there. 😂
well there will be at least one dinosaur there Leon! Me! have an amazing weekend!
nick, did you know today is day of the dead in mexico?
Yes we do we celebrate with Tequila 👍❤️
£385 per day for a stall to sell items bit steep if you ask me
Wow, is that the cost Andrew? Gosh they will be pushing it to make a return on that. 😱
@@GENerationXplorers yup thats why everything in Whitby is so dear , the cost of fish and chips are really bad if you move down the coast to Scarborough they are a lot cheaper then if you go onto Bridlington even cheaper still. I used to go to Whitby for my jolly hols when i was a kid 50+ years ago but now i wont even go for a day trip there to commercial now and way over priced
@andrewhorner1078 ah me too Andrew, in the 80s Whitby was considered to be “quite run down” but my family loved it, was taken there a lot and even before Goths were a thing I loved the Gothic vibe of the place. I made the life decision to move to Scarborough (glad I did) and yes things are a lot cheaper in Scarborough than Whitby but yes since moving here, you’ve guessed it I’ve fallen in love with Brid. Thats shocking news about the stalls but to be fair Whitby gets the highest shop footfall out of the three places.
@@GENerationXplorers I love Scarbaydos and Brid last holiday i had was in scarborough in fact we went twice in the same year stayed in a house just over hangmans bridge next to the hairdressers
@andrewhorner1078 watch out Andrew it gets under your skin! Years of family holidays as a kid and then me coming on holidays here for another 15 years before I finally thought enough is enough, I have to move! Been here 20 years, never regretted it for a second, but since moving here I’ve a new found love for Brid, the place is incredible. Id happily live in either place!
jill should dress up as olivia newton john next time.
😂 that’s an idea but of Summer loving 🤭❤️
Lady in red disrespectful as shouldn’t be using gravestones etc as props, requested many years ago sorry
yeah there was a LOT more of that today sadly, even worse, people leaning against grave stones that looked likely to topple. something should be done about that..
10% Goths and 90% cos play. Disrespect to graves, sprawling all over them just for a photo opportunity! 😡
There is a certain group that go up to the graves and are more disrespectful than ever now of the graves, gravestones and buried people there but that is NOT representative of the millions of Goths that attend this event. Maybe get out and meet some of the people, talk to them and see for yourself, rather than getting annoyed about one small group of “just” cosplayers that head up to St Mary’s for every event.
Here is the pain of a bullet ant 😅😅😅
Bullet ants (Paraponera clavata) have the most painful sting of any insect, and the pain can last for up to 24 hours
ouch 😖 they sound brutal! thanks for the warning Dwight now I need to check if we have them in 🇬🇧 Google? 😂❤️
@@GENerationXplorers 😂🤣😅😂
