  • Planes, Trains and Cable Cars. We head to London for a look around a few of the less well known bits of this great city.
    From an awe inspiring 1800s garden cemetery, to the Royal Academy. We have a brilliant day exploring this many-faceted city. Great wealth, great poverty and a greyhound eating chicken nuggets.
    What more could you want ?

    The museums were cool some lovely pieces. Bex the raw plug pun was funny funny.

    Awesome video! Loved the museums…great adventure. Happy Birthday to Bex’s son.
    Sorry about the loud talking outside Daisy late at night 😕 we are too familiar with that.

    Fabulous episode and great photography!Great museums with casts! Even more impressive out of context locations! A graveyard run sequence would be fun, especially with those flowers! Thank you all very much for making and sharing this lovely video! 💖🥰😊😎👍

    Haven't been to London in 12 years, I used to go regularly. It's changed so much! I do love the old buildings. Never knew about those graveyards! Will have to go see them next time I'm over.

    • @scotlandonashoestring

      Definitely! I never knew they were there and there are 7 of them.

    Appreciate that tour, I would have enjoyed the museum you suggested too, but it's was a special birthday.
    Enjoying the series of London graveyards on your other channel.
    London is just to busy for my liking. You see nothing around you just focusing getting through.
    Enjoy your week and happy belated birthday to the young man.

    Sorry I am so late in viewing this,( I subscribe to so many channels). I loved this episode! Of course the best part, the graveyard. Wow! I bet I have relatives in there. I appreciate how you both appreciate the old buildings and point them out. The museum spectacular. You were brave to stay in the van overnight first night. I'm on to the next one.

    Well done! It's hard not to do the traditional tour of London sights. We only get to go once a year or less. Last time our cousin took us on a pub crawl of 5 very old pubs from Borough Market to almost the Docklands along the Thames path. I don't drink but the pubs all had great views and interesting histories.

    Already looking forward to a really thorough look at that cemetery on your other channel. We love to visit London for a few days before heading into the countryside. Our London trips always include a visit to the Imperial War Museum. We've also done the HMS Belfast tour. Have you? It's worth it. RAF Hendon is great, too, but then we love planes and the history of flight. I'm sorry, Bex, but they would take precedence over the musical instrument museum for us but to each their own. :)
    And WOW, that was one expensive scone. It better have been a great one! Oh, those London prices.

    • @scotlandonashoestring
      @scotlandonashoestring  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hahaha. The musical instrument museum was Bex’s boy’s choice. There are about a million places we’d rather go than there 😜

    Really interesting and makes me want a day trip to London one day soon, last time I went was for the Tutankhamen exhibition in January 2020.

      I used to go down there all the time, loved it. Not quite so keen now I'm older and apparently less tolerant of other people.

      @@scotlandonashoestring I’m only about a two hour train ride away but rarely go - not very keen on crowds either. But if you ever make it a bit further south east, there’s a weekly park run along the seafront here and apparently our local cemetery includes some German commonwealth war graves, I think I’m going to go and have a look.

    I have never in my life wanted to visit a graveyard but you have made it so interesting that I now want to go wondering through graveyards in your end of the world! What is the name of your other channel? A big thank you to you, Becks and DeNiro for providing these very interesting videos along with a few chuckles! Canadian fan

      Hiya. Our other channel is @placesforthepast. I think Canada has some nice graveyards too!! One day I’d love to visit Mount Pleasant Cemetery, one of my favourite bands did a song about it :)
