Fabulous video. Funny. Informative. Funny. Balanced. Funny. Interesting. Funny .....Take it from me in Spain...not encountered any mud yet. Stephen and Dan you are priceless! Gary. Xx
Ah cheers Gary, glad you're liking it! We try to mix up the content with a bit of variety if we can. No mud?! I'd say lucky you unless it means it needs rain where you are!
If you mean the sea at Hastings, it can look so much more glorious. The same at the White cliffs in Dover and 7 Sisters in Sussex, I think it's the chalk that does it...but of course, you need sunshine 😂🤦♂️
It was so bloody annoying as it kept clearing up, then we'd find another section even worse 🙈 Glad we gave up in the end 😂 But 100% recommend a stop in the summer
Another fab vlog. We've never been to Hastings maybe we should add it to our list! Wish our weather was hotter than Spain we all need some good weather! Thanks for sharing 👍
Haha we knew it was daft to believe the hotter than Spain reports, but occasionally it does happen! It's just funny because there wasn't even a speck of sun 🤣 Parking is a bit iffy in Hastings itself but I do think it's worth stopping by that country park in summer where you can park a motorhome too. No overnighting sadly (I think) but good for the day. Thanks guys hope you're well 🤗❤
Hi guys Hope you are both well Another fabulous video 😊 Hastings is somewhere we've never visited. You guys are so funny, the muddy path 😂 Hope you've had a lovely weekend Morgs Jo and Boo 🐕 ❤
Hi Morgs, Jo & Boo ❤ Thank you, the mud would've been more fun with wellies so we could feel like kids again! In Hastings the surrounding cliffs and countryside is worth it, as is the old town, the other areas probably need a bit of love, but there is definitely a lot there and it has lots of arcades and amusements etc.
Almost sliced the roof off my T6 at the arched tunnel Stephen walked through in Folkestone. It is 6'6, but only in the centre, so reversed back using the door mirrors, back past the chippy, and there is free parking there.😉
I remember your photos of Folkestone and thinking what a great place to visit. Do you think the regeneration has anything to do with the footfall "Le Tunnel" might have brought? I never think to stay over as I always rush for Europe but this has made me think I might have to do a stopover before heading over the Channel next time. Great vlog again (I'm having a binge catch up with a cheap glass of French wine on a rainy bank holiday Monday 🙂) ❤
Nothing better than a bank holiday and wine! 😁 I think the tunnel probably has had some influence, but it certainly took many years after the tunnel came along, because that coincided with the port closing and then other things being lost on the seafront. So it's taken them a while to revive it, but yes definitely worth a day visit now I'd say. Not sure about overnighting though...I think there's a spot down the harbour which is quite pricey at £20 a night (not sure there's even services), and there is a campsite not far. We had to park for the day to explore which did the job!
Wow, it is so good to see a British seaside town on the up. So many of the places we visited in our childhood have decayed and become forgotten. Well done Folkestone, shows what can be done when you put your mind (and money) to it. Mud, this is the one thing we don't miss about the UK. Sausages, Yes! SUNDAY Roast, Definitely! Cadburys Cream Eggs, Don't even get us started! But mud 😡 Oh and strange you should mention nudest beach, we took our first outing into naturism this week. Much Love Alison & Darren ❤🤟
Hi guys, it was such a refreshing sight to see a town at least try to revive its fortunes. And scenery wise that place definitely doesn't get enough credit. Christ the mud...if we had to list one thing as the worst about winter in a van, that would be top, even above cold temperatures. Absolute nightmare in our small van. Now we just take our shoes in and let them dry so we can brush it away easily a day (or several) later. But in April, we're so bored of that now...and still no good weather on the horizon here 😬 Now I 100% get why you miss those things, apart from sausages as aren't they everywhere? Although thinking about it the British ones feel quite specific to here. Oh you found a naturist beach too, will this all have been (tastefully) filmed for a future vid? 😄 I (Dan) tried it once in Gran Canaria, purely to know what it felt like to swim naked and it did feel amazing in the sea to be fair. Anyway, now I fancy a roast dinner damn it 😋 😜 Love to you both ❤️ 🤟
I went to Hastings for work once about 25 years ago. Only saw the seafront, but it looked a dismal place. Hopefully it's had a refresh since then. Folkestone looks lovely though!
🤣 I think Stephen would agree with you, he used to live there years ago. It's definitely a bit rough and ready in places, however the old town is quaint, and the walks from the beach up onto the cliffs are beautiful. It's bizarre how these things work- for every Brighton (not that that's perfect) there's a Hastings which doesn't have anywhere near the investment or snowball effect required to become "trendy" and popular. Yet on paper there's no reason it couldn't have been the other way around as geographically they're pretty similar 🤷♂️ Folkestone still has its moments but it's good to see the effort put in compared to what it was
The weather for the area just had the typical "hotter than Spain" forecasts you sometimes see (presumably meaning somewhere warm, or Spain's average for that time of year) which does sometimes happen, but there was absolutely no sign of it on that day!
I'm going to have to add Folkestone to the never ending list of places to visit now. It looks fantastic! Great video again. I was expecting one of you to end up on your ar*e in all that mud🤣
Thank you, ah yeah it's definitely worth a visit, there's a lot more to see there than people realise! And so close to the tunnel and Dover I think people should give it a go more often. I'm gobsmacked neither of us fell over but it was certainly close 😬😂
I never mind what you do & quite like it if you just meander along without a plan like we used to when we were able to get out. We'd throw a picnic together & head for the coast & just see what we came across before we got so hungry we had to eat. Rarely bought food as it's usually not so nice anyway as well as pricey. It's still far too water logged everywhere to go walkies on unmade pathways even wearing wellies unless you like a soggy muddy backside! Keep up the friendly videos, you feel like old friends even though I've never actually met you in person, very enjoyable every time. 🤗
What a lovely comment to read, thank you 🤗 I think you've summed up the best part of travelling around, no pressure to be here or there or follow a strict itinerary, just going at your own pace and seeing what happens. Even when we go to Europe next month, while we'll look at some places in advance so we know roughly what direction to go, we mostly won't know this until a couple of days before each location. Sitting and planning a 2 month journey before you've left suits some people but I think that places a lot of expectation on your trip! Taking a picnic on a walk is one of the most gloriously freeing things 😍 But you're right, it wasn't even welly weather, just horrendous sludge right now. Oh well, I think the sun's on the horizon somewhere 🤣
@@comealongdear Sun, what's that? Yes basic plans are useful but then freedom to explore with an open mind & enjoy in your own time is perfect. The trip next month will be interesting, looking forward to seeing where you end up. Make sure you have a big powerful torch, always a good idea. Don't ask me where that thought came from, it just appeared in my head! 🙃 Have a good week.
Let's just say the first destination (taking it slow over a few days) is Eurovision related 😉 We're going to take that torch suggestion as the sage advice it is because I feel you're right, it's something we're going to need and I don't think there is one in the van right now 🤔😬 Have a great week too! ❤
You didnt visit the Hastings disused quarry? Did you get chips at Folkstone? I enjoy listening to you natter on, no pretensions or bullshit. I think Steve could get a job at Tripadvisor after this effort. 😜 👍
The disused quarry was waterlogged to the point we couldn't get in. We actually got stuck in that bit and didn't film it, having to leap giant puddles to get out. Next time then for sure because that's another fun part to walk around. You're familiar with Hastings then? Ha funnily enough we did buy chips but decided to rest that footage this week 😂 Didn't want to over egg the chip chat 😜 But they weren't too bad (about a 7/10) and we got a large to share. I can't remember the price now 🤦♂️
We couldn't think of a title for this one, so Stephen just said call it that because I mention it about 1000 times in this video. The hilarious thing is that really was the forecast, but I don't know who actually got that in the UK 😂 Parking is nuts - and really inconsistent too. Often the nicer places are the cheapest 🤷♂️ Thanks Chrissy ❤️

Thanks for sharing you make me giggle still not got your walking shoes on
We're terrible aren't we, we spend so much time in our other shoes it's just habit 🙈
Looks a little blue it’s very pretty

Amazing. I would never have thought Folkestone could be so lovely. 🙏🚌
Thank you ladies, yes we were a bit surprised too, they've done wonders to make the seafront more inviting ❤
😂😅 that muddy path did give me a laugh still the coastal path looked lovely nice veiws 😊
It was so bloody annoying as it kept clearing up, then we'd find another section even worse 🙈 Glad we gave up in the end 😂 But 100% recommend a stop in the summer

You nearly gave the misses kittens when u got in the van with that mud on ur shoes Dan. Great vid as always.
😂 We have to pretend it's not happening, it's too difficult to keep mud out completely. Usually just let it dry and sweep it out later!
Hi guys
Hope you are both well
Another fabulous video 😊
Hastings is somewhere we've never visited.
You guys are so funny, the muddy path 😂
Hope you've had a lovely weekend

It’s warmer than Spain, what part of Spain did you mean?

great video as usall guys 😂😂

Oh, that mud! But it's real, not the sunshiny happy days a lot of TH-camrs pretend life is.

Thanks Jon, yep this is the reality in a very wet (more than usual) England in a van!
Nice one lads - once again! You entertain us well. PS: where is your 'Buy Me A Coffee" link?

Not sure which bit you loved, but we're very glad you did 😉😁
Another interesting video. Looks a lovely place. Great job guys. “The sun” what’s this word, not familiar with this ‘up north’
I don't think anyone, even in the south, is familiar with it since last June to be honest 😂 Thanks Paul ❤️
I love naturism. I could look at it all day long. 😉❤️🥂
I think some of this nature might even thrive on that 😜
