I bought my hubby some Loakes when I inherited some money after my dad died. Husband often went without shoes as a child and had never had a pair fitted properly. He absolutely loves them and the aftercare is superb. They will last him for many many years.
The Cathedral is stunning, I'm from York and the Minster is awesome but Ely Cathedral is off the scale. Fantastic choir too, the Christmas services are amazing. Thanks for the upload.
What you should have done is gone to the park and ride at Trumpington. No charge for the car park just a bus ticket and no worries about keeping a check on the time. Also there is a nice wetherspoons in Cambridge which has downstairs toilets.
@bythecurb Canterbury is the only other Cathedral that charges...I think? Rochester, Winchester, Chichester, etc are all free...but ask for donations.
I wish I'd known you was going here, I've got a Murder Walk where you have to go round Cambridge solving clues to a murder. It's brilliant! Includes a time machine.
Hated staying in Cambridge,used to stay in Ely and earith a lot ,Bury st Edmunds was my fave ,so proper old pubs ,and the smallest is the nutshell ,and if course Abbott ale 🎉
I want one ...lol Chelsea bun sketch ...lol you can can see the difference between the north /south divide money invested no pot holes in sight ...lol enjoyed the vlog guys
Speaking of cycle paths…. There were three roads in a pub. A motorway, a dual carriage way and a single carriage way. They were arguing who was the hardest toughest of them all. They agreed the motorway was on account of his ‘hard’ shoulders. Suddenly in walks a a pink pathway. The motorway looked stunned and his under the table. The other two laughed and asked why he did that. The motorway replied…. You’re joking that’s a cyclo path! Bet Helen rolled her eyes and James snickered lol
Is it just me...? I don't think it's right to have to pay to go in a church or cathederal... I get that they have to pay for the upkeep but I think the church gets plenty of money and they could ask for donations. Charges like this make these places too expensive for the ordinary working person...elitist if you ask me...
It was a real pleasure to meet you James in Ely. I have been following your channel from the get go pretty much and the only comment (other than this) that I have left on a channel is yours believe it or not. It was early doors to say how much I admired how you coped with some of the stuff that was going on, lived in your van etc. Great to see you and Helen (although she had her head in the stall/shop 😄). Safe travels and all the best Chris
When visiting Cambridge - best bet is the Park & Ride tbh! An expensive place for sure! You went right in the centre of town but the best street is Mill Road . . . Ely Cathedral is a wonder to behold (also expensive to get into but the maintenance of a place like that has to be considered!) Both places steeped in history, so got to be worth a visit!
Ely is where my Disney in laws came from. They had an antique shop there! Stunning footage as always. I reckon that cathedral was built during the millennial reign!
Great viewing again both of you 💕but yes oof the prices😏. Love the historic/contemporary feel of these wonderful cities..annoying parking tickets can ruin a lovely day out tho 🙋♀️
I have never been as disappointed with a place as I was in Cambridge. Apart from the pub we found that specialised in Belgium beer it would’ve been a wasted weekend.
I once went to Cambridge for the day with my mum and my nan - now both long in spirit. We took our own pack-up cos we never had enough money to eat out except to grab a cuppa and a bun! A lovely blog highlighting eye-watering prices! I don't think Dan and I will be going anytime soon unless the piggy bank's full. 😬
Great vlog enjoyed it all you two, but bloody hell,those prices! Frosty jack sat behind the church would have been more like it I recon.😁😂😆🤣loved the tour tho James, looks like an amazing interesting place 👍✅☀️ sorry you got the fine by one minute mate,That's just the way the ball bounces sometimes!😵
It’s weird you are walking around my city. My partner lives in Ely so very familiar with both. You just walked by my nana’s student accommodation which is next to St Johns you went in.
The Glossop Hop has to be added to your future adventures you 2...We deffo planning on doing it..Sounds an ace pub crawl.. Check it out..Some fantastic old traditional boozers..👌👍
I had a Antie that lived in Cambridge she was a ripe old age of 102. She died a few years ago. Her Husband was something to do with Pye Radio. They used to have a Vintage car in there Garden as a feature.
Hi Guy's,another great vlog,thanks,yes Cambridge is very expensive 😮 so annoying to get a parking ticket 😮 Anyway was hoping for our shout out when you was in the pub,hopefully next time 😊
Im really sorry, we had to stop doing shout outs. We talked about it in an early video. When we did them in the beginning we got completely inundated with requests and it was too hard to keep up. However, we always mention people who we see when out and about so hopefully we will see you on our travels :-)
@@bythecurb That would be a great segment for your channel. I'm sure people have lots of recommendations for you and it'll definitely give you more travel footage. :)
Loved it guys. I feel your pain with the ticket. I suspect they have an alert that your car has expired and then able to issue. Anyways, what can you do. The cathedral looks great. Loved the stone of all the buildings, must be local.
Hi guys I had my graduation ceremony at Ely cathedral, lovely to see it again. Great vlog as usual. Peace 🧚 PS I was a mature student, therefore not offended by comment 🤣🤣🤣.
Brought back some memories. Last time I visited Ely, 25 years ago, the choir was practicing in the cathederal. If things are very expensive in restaurants, and bear no relation to value for money, walk out. Sadly, it's the minimum wage staff that suffer in these places because, if the punters think they've been ripped off, they never leave a tip.
Are sorry to hear you still are under the weather perk up soon you two ,loved the vlog ,very expensive mind , special at the end with the parking fine ,make sure next time me dears Ange
The cathedral looked absolutely amazing a little bit expensive but worth it in my opinion. As for the price of the food well over priced. The quantity of your videos and the incidental music is getting better on every video I loved the Katie Melua song in your last video it fitted in so well. Thank you for another great video. ❤❤
Absolutly stunning the first place with the cathedral you went to thank you for sharing.❤ Cambridge is beautiful but very overpriced. I hope you had a great time.❤
Peterborough cathedral is very beautiful and in there you can see St Oswald’s chapel where the stolen arm of St Oswald was kept. The saint you talked about from Oswestry. Then go for the day to Stamford I think you’ll like it there x
Helen, hubby said don’t forget Blue light in Greene King. 20% off food. James I bet you will remember next time 😊 ps me and hubby love watching your videos.
How funny to see you guys in our neck of the woods 🤩 Ely is a lovely little city & I was born in Cambridge, if we’d known you were about you could of slept on our drive 😀 . The park & ride buses are the best option & I pretty sure you can stay in the trumpington one . Great vlog again , are you venturing to Suffolk next, lavenham has a lovely pub with American Airmen history . The whole of East Anglia has 😀
Great video I am just so gutted I missed seeing you in my hometown, I have to say you had a lucky escape by not drinking in the Minster, that said I am sure Helen would have enjoyed the haunted side of it, shame you never got to see Cromwell house of the pubs by the river!
Hiya, lovely that you are in my old stomping ground, the last time I was in that Cathedral we didn’t have to pay as we went to evening service as it was around Christmas time it is a beautiful place isn’t it ? Hope you had fun but it’s really expensive in comparison with the Norf!!!!
As long as you're drone comes within the legal weight and you are licensed. They cannot stop you flying it, unless it is a restricted area like an airport or prison. But I'm sure you know this James...Keep the great vids coming...👍
Well blow me down , l come from this area ,my hubby is an Ely lad 😊 l was bought up in a small village called coveney , saw the cathedral from my bed room window , very expensive area to live now ,so close to London
Bought my Volvo 740 estate from a lovely lady in Ely. Turned out she was a minister at the cathedral, one owner a vicar😊. Still got the car 7 years later. Ely is worth visiting, if you take a picnic.
Shame about the parking ticket, I think if you left the ticket on the screen it's possible you could have been done again? I have been to Cambridge before and its a lovely place with lots of character. Hope your both feeling better on the next one.
Yes Ely is very expensive and I live in North London . We had a meal at that pub a few months ago . Nice but very expensive . Ely is a nice small town to walk about . The toy shop is the best shop in Ely . It’s like going back to the 70s . 👍🤓
Ely is a city, not a town 😊 However I agree totally that the pub was not necessarily the best place to eat with regards to vfm. Part of the charm of Ely is that it’s a step back in time…

Helen's voice is so funny. Nearly every sentence has an upward inflection like she is amazed or surprised! It's cute.
Awww thank you Simon 😊 funnily enough it does take a lot to make me oooh and awwwww 😂 James is Def the one 😍
I bought my hubby some Loakes when I inherited some money after my dad died. Husband often went without shoes as a child and had never had a pair fitted properly. He absolutely loves them and the aftercare is superb. They will last him for many many years.
I was born in Ely . My dad was in the RAF and that was the nearest hospital when my mum went into labour lol after watching Alf Garnet lol 😮xx
Thanks. Here's £25 to pay your fine.
Mate that is so kind of you, thank you so much! I've just paid it too ❤
nice one bro
@@bythecurb If you've already paid it then get a few drinks with it. lol.
How kind ❤
Top man!
I get a delicious comforting feeling every time I sit down to watch one of your videos. Thank you both for sharing your lives with us.❤
congrats to doctormong for paying your parking bill Cambridge is very expensive
Thanks as always, hope you both feel better soon
A PCN is so annoying!! The dramatic music stomping back to the van made me smile though! 😀 loved the video guys as always! Take care ….Smithy
Thanks Smithy
My father in law was a squadron leader pilot in the RAF so probably frequented that pub.
Fabulous tour thank you ❤❤
The Cathedral is stunning, I'm from York and the Minster is awesome but Ely Cathedral is off the scale. Fantastic choir too, the Christmas services are amazing. Thanks for the upload.

Good you have Helen back, lived an hr away from Cambridge but never been to ely ❤absolutely love Cambridge 😊
You are very good at what you do.. You have that something if that makes sense. Also not forgetting Helen ❤
Thank you :-)
Well done for getting out and about you two despite of feeling unwell 🙏
Thank you, I couldn't chicken out because Helen wouldn't let me!!
Hi James and Helen, thank you for the upload 👍
You're welcome John :-)
Good to see Ely, spent my childhood there.
Ely looks so lovely and the cathedral was just beautiful.The architecture in Cambridge was wonderful, shame they don't build like that now.
That top James is a grand colour, really suits you. 👍🏻
£28 for two tickets 😳
Salisbury Cathedral where the Magna Carta is …That’s FREE.
You should’ve have to pay to enter a place of worship!
I know, it was very expensive but the concert made it worth the money
@bythecurb
Canterbury is the only other Cathedral that charges...I think?
Rochester, Winchester, Chichester, etc are all free...but ask for donations.
Impressive a place I would like to visit What a lovely day Sunny for a change
@@christoguichard4311 York Minster £18 pp unless you are a resident, then free. Westminster Abbey £29 pp.
@@christoguichard4311 York charge 😩
Ive been right to the top of the tower there when I lived 10 miles from there ,loved ely especially the cathedral and riverside
Nice to see that they still have wooden punts in Cambridge. In Oxford, they swapped to plastic ones that don't have the same ambience.
Was worth it 🥰😂 excellent as always thank you! Your footage with the singing in the cathedral was brilliant. ❤❤
The church was grate James & Helen and both places where spot on
I wish I'd known you was going here, I've got a Murder Walk where you have to go round Cambridge solving clues to a murder. It's brilliant! Includes a time machine.
have been to cambridge on the way back from norwich..nice,preferred it to oxford
Lovely vlog James and Helen❤
Thank you
Another really good watch...drinks were pricey but as long as you both enjoyed yourselves because we enjoyed watching you both. Michelle and Alan❤
Thank you :-)
You appear to have missed the river area in Ely, just a short walk from the Cathedral - shame, it’s really nice!
Hated staying in Cambridge,used to stay in Ely and earith a lot ,Bury st Edmunds was my fave ,so proper old pubs ,and the smallest is the nutshell ,and if course Abbott ale 🎉
Fabulous as ever… come to Colchester & see us, Yr nearly there 😂 we have a castle & we’re the oldest recorded town. Love to you both. Lucy x
I want one ...lol Chelsea bun sketch ...lol you can can see the difference between the north /south divide money invested no pot holes in sight ...lol enjoyed the vlog guys
For the "worldwide" tourist trade, i suspect, Matt lad. Foreign ob co's abound.
Speaking of cycle paths….
There were three roads in a pub. A motorway, a dual carriage way and a single carriage way. They were arguing who was the hardest toughest of them all. They agreed the motorway was on account of his ‘hard’ shoulders.
Suddenly in walks a a pink pathway. The motorway looked stunned and his under the table. The other two laughed and asked why he did that. The motorway replied…. You’re joking that’s a cyclo path!
Bet Helen rolled her eyes and James snickered lol
Its an old classic!! 😂
Brings back great memory’s Ely, I was based at RAF Hospital Ely in 1979, great nights out at Ely😜
I'm in Norfolk for Christmas. Ely Station's on my route, so I might well pop there for the market during the Holiday.
Is it just me...? I don't think it's right to have to pay to go in a church or cathederal... I get that they have to pay for the upkeep but I think the church gets plenty of money and they could ask for donations. Charges like this make these places too expensive for the ordinary working person...elitist if you ask me...
I absolutely agree. There should never be a charge to enter a place of worship.
Voluntary contributions ❤
Paying to enter God's place is a con 🙏
They could just ask the Vatican 😂
The Lord saves for sure 😮
Fabulous video, both look like stunning cities and looked like you got great weather too 👍 as always thanks for sharing ❤️👍

Great video again. How about taking a trip to some of the Cumbrian towns like Workington, Maryport, Millom?
Also Alston looks really lovely, highest market town in England, IIRC. Lanercost. Priory too.
That cathedral was so beautiful,how did they build them way back then.
Gutting about the parking ticket, pleased that someone gave you the money for it though. 🎉❤
Helen is so funny ,outside the pub was a classic, brilliant 😊

14 quid for 2 drinks is just insane! I remember going to a craft pub in Manchester once that had pints for £23. World gone mad.
Its ridiculous. Im thinking of starting a new feature 'finding the most expensive pint'!!

Hope you’re both feeling better !
I was born in Ely. Worked 😅n Cambridge and yes it’s mega expensive. Lots of rich Chinese buy houses there. House prices on par with London.

A nail biting end to that video James, I was hoping you would make it back and I know that feeling when you see that ticket on the window 😢.
Bought my Volvo 740 estate from a lovely lady in Ely. Turned out she was a minister at the cathedral, one owner a vicar😊. Still got the car 7 years later. Ely is worth visiting, if you take a picnic.
“It’s all overpriced hippy stuff in there” 😂 love the honesty 👍⭐
Cambridge and Oxford, Shelly. Might go in on a service bus, otherwise, no chance.
Hi James and Helen great content x

No one got injured in the making of this video 🤣

I shall stick up for you Helen 👍 James if Helen wants to browse she can 🙂. And wish you filmed that subscriber you usually do.
Yes Ely is very expensive and I live in North London . We had a meal at that pub a few months ago . Nice but very expensive . Ely is a nice small town to walk about . The toy shop is the best shop in Ely . It’s like going back to the 70s . 👍🤓
It's a city 😉
Ely is a city, not a town 😊
However I agree totally that the pub was not necessarily the best place to eat with regards to vfm.
Part of the charm of Ely is that it’s a step back in time…
Both lovely places, expensive but nice.
Try Manchester... the old shambles and next door Sinclair Oyster bar, both black and white Tudor style. Thomas chop house. the best beer in the UK, try a pint of draught Bass
Missus asks if Helibobs found a charity shop (rich pickings!) but we're only halfway through 😊.
Is Helen the head of" Camera"😂😂😂I'm sure they'd love her working for em&she'd love it...I think👍😂
Ps..James us women love to browse the shops😂/stalls
