Hi Martin. We love Scotland too and what a lovely story. Thank you for coming along with us 😊🐕🚙

Thank you, we're pleased you enjoyed it 😊🐕🚙

Hi. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. It's most appreciated. Pleased you enjoyed coming along😊🐕🚙

Hi. We can second that. We live on the west coast, but along way south of you. NW Cumbria coast. Last week, clear, sunny and cold (prefer that to be honest) still and quiet. Yesterday... 62mph gusts and driving stair rod rain! 🌧️🐕🚙

​@the-other-windsors we Scots say 4 seasons in 1 day everyday😂

Hi just like here near the lakes 😊🐕🚙

Our pleasure! We're pleased you enjoyed it 😊🐕🚙

Thank you so much. That's such a lovely comment. 😊🐕🚙

Hi. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. You're the second person to let us know where that HUGE lorry came from. Would live to have a go at driving one of those! 😊🐕🚙

Hi. It wasn't too long a wait to be honest, not for us anyway. We were in no hurry. We most likely drove through Girvan on our way up from the Mull of Galloway a few years back. We actually pulled over for lunch in a layby directly opposite Ailsa Craig. Amazing watching the gannets fishing 😊🐕🚙

You won't get any arguments from us. Stunning place. We take it "flying Chainsaws" you mean drones. 🤔🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors No, the midgies, the locals laugh at the tourists as they do what's known as the tourist dance trying to keep the buggers off, they didn't bother me but my other half came out in red blotches on her face, like measles. Also visit Elgol on Skye the view from the beach across to the Cuillins is jaw dropping.

Ah..now we get it! They don't seem to bite Bernie so much, but me! On Arran I was bitten by horse flies. Should have seen my legs, blisters galore! Thanks for the Elgol tip. Maybe next time 😊🐕🚙

They are there to keep the English out😂

Ha best discription I’ve ever heard.

We had a steak pie one year and it was lovely. Sat outside in the patio area and Blue made friends with some bikers 😊🐕🚙

Thanks so much for your kind comment. 😊🐕🚙

Thank you. We're pleased you enjoyed it 😊🐕🚙

You're welcome and we know what you mean about Scotland being a second home.😊🐕🚙

We were in Fraserburgh last year. Some beautiful fishing villages S well up there. Got my Rosehearty mixed with Rosemarkie...wanted to see Dolphins lol. Would love to have seen the chipshop man's face! 😊🐕🚙

Fraserburgh to Oban ?

Can't answer that I'm afraid. Maybe the vessel was registered in Fraserburgh, but fished the west coast?🤔🐕🚙

Oban is a nice spot, been a couple of times. We were lucky with the weather. Completely different in the driving rain 🙂🐕🚙

Thank you so much. We're pleased you enjoyed it 😊🐕🚙

Knew all the Map shots would come in handy. Go Ryan 😊🐕🚙

Hi. Welcome to the channel. We're pleased you enjoyed it. Check out the channel playlists. We actually spent a month touring. Started out in Shetland and Orkney, before hitting the mainland and working our way down the west coast. We did a tour of Eastern ciasts last year. Beautiful too.😊🐕🚙

Thank you. Pleased you enjoyed it.😊🐕🚙

Hi. Welcome to the channel. There's a little gap in new content right now, due to a few health issues but there's so many adventures in the past playlists for you to Mull over and hopefully, we'll be back out there very soon.🙂🐕🚙

Thank you so much 😊🐕🚙

Go for it! Hope you get out and about very soon. Well, after all this weather! 🙂🐕🚙

Thank you. 😊🐕🚙

Special Fish supper was a major treat when I was young in Glasgow. Still my favourite if we ever get something from the chippy.

@eleanor8002 ours too. Haven't had fish and chips for ages...must be due a treat 🙂🐕🚙

Thanks for watching. We know not everyone loves dogs and we understand this. Guess it's a question of balance. It worked before, when we could eat outside. 🤔🐕🚙

Thank you for joining us. Lazy, hot Sunday afternoon... Where could that possibly be?Lazy maybe... HOT... Definitely not 2 degrees here!! 🤔🐕🚙

I am impressed. i just posted that and you have replied! I could tell you lots of stories of how I have ended up here! I miss Scotland, lived there 73-82 Did a lot of my Firsts there...... Red Beans and Lentils from Kaapstad!

WOW! No wonder it was a hot afternoon! Welcome to -2 degrees C NW Cumbria. 😯🐕🚙

Tapadh leobh. tha dùthaich bhrèagha agad.🙂🐕🚙

Hi. Thank you. we do our best to make the most of it, the best we can for sure. :)

Thank you. Sounds like you had quite a journey. We live just west of the northern Lakes and that's quite a drive. Hope the lakes were more kind to you 🤔🐕🚙

Because iona is blessed .

Hi thanks for watching. We love Mull too.We were booked to stay a week, but covid put paid to that! 😊🐕🚙

Thank you. Yes, we've just found this out about a special fish supper. Just not used to it here in England. Breadcrumbs is for my digestive system, but love a battered fish too 👍🐕🚙

Thank you too 😊🐕🚙

Thank you. 😊🐕🚙

Thank you 😊🐕🚙

You won't get any argument from us. Love it.😊🐕🚙

Yes. We're hoping it will be our gateway later this year 🤞🐕🚙

Hi. To be honest I knew about the Waverley. It obviously caught my attention and I'm not sure why I didn't mention it on the commentary. We saw it once before when we stayed on a site in Dunoon. It's such an iconic vessel and it deserved a mention. 🤔🐕🚙

Hi thanks for coming along 😊🐕🚙

Yes, you certainly do. We love Scotland and yes, great places to walk. Have done some hikes in some amazing places on both this trip and earlier ones. Our next video highlights a good ramble with some most unexpected appearances. There's so much more freedom in Scotland 😊🐕🚙

Hi. The music is by Age of the Bear and called Rainy Days. We love Scotland. We started this trip in Shetland, Orkney before travelling South down the west coast. We did start to add what3words references, but decided not to continue. It's better if we as tourists spread out and not overcrowd spots. Sometimes it can't be avoided. However, we prefer to find out of the way wild spaces.🙂🐕🚙

Ha..ha..love it! Yes, you're right😊🐕🚙

Thanks Yvonne. Yes, very disappointed with Wetherspoons in Oban. We're guessing this will now apply to all branches with outdoor seating areas. Poor choice of company policy in our opinion 😕🐕🚙

Hi. Thanks for coming along with us. There's so much to see around this and south of Oban. Knapdale is a place we discovered by accident looking for a night stop. It's beautiful and comes with the added bonus of Beavers!! 😁🐕🚙

Thank you very much. Our choice of music isn't always popular 😁🐕🚙

You live in a beautiful place. We've been to Mull on our travels a couple of times and we're due to spend a week there just as the pandemic hit. We'll be back.😊🐕🚙

Awh thanks so much. Could you please tell us what the pub is called 🙂🐕🚙

Pretty sure it's The Lorne Bar but you would have to check. They are definitely dog friendly

Thank you so much. We'll check it out 🙂🐕🚙

Thanks for watching and we love Oban, been several times now 😊🐕🚙

Pleased to bring back memories for you. To be honest, that's why we started to record our adventures... To reminisce and leave a record for our family, when we're no longer here. 👨‍👩‍👦🐕🚙

Before retiring I was a Touring Coach driver, drove those roads for 29yrs and never got tired of the views, sometimes the sun was shinning lol.

No mean feat in a coach but, what a view from the office!!🙂🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors I used that comment often to my overseas visitors.

Blimey. A very lucky escape indeed! 😲🐕🚙

The fighter pilots routinely lock their radar onto travelling vehicles in this neck of the woods to practice targeting.

Thank you 🙂🐕🚙

Thanks and no, not heard of that one. We'll have to look that up for a visit on any next adventure over that way. Thanks for the tip 👍 🐕🚙

Thank you for the information. We'll definitely look at it differently, the next time we visit 🙂🐕🚙

Thanks for pointing this out. A visit for another time, we're sure. 🙂🐕🚙

Hi and welcome to our channel. Thank you for subscribing. Its funny you should mention eating on the harbour at Oban, that's exactly what happened in the end. Although, neither of us eat "proper" seafood lol.😁🐕🚙

We think they're a brilliant idea. That's quite a long straight before such a sharp bend. It's good that they are doing their job. 🙂🐕🚙

Well spotted 😊🐕🚙

We certainly enjoyed our month long trip through Scotland. Starting in Shetland, moving south onto Orkney and finally working south down the west coast. We had everything weather wise and provided a travelling banquet for the wee midges too! Our trip took place during May 😊🐕🚙

😁

Hi. They really have shot up in price recently. Apart from us remembering getting a fish and chips for 1 and 6 old money. You used to be able to get fish and chips twice for that only a couple of years ago. They are around £12.50 now in England too🙄🐕🚙

Thanks for the recommendation. Well google it and check it out if we're passing that way again 👍🐕🚙

Hi. Thanks for the info. Thought quarry when we saw it. Must hold quite a tonnage! 🙂🐕🚙

Thank you. Yes. A slip of the tongue can happen when I'm speaking my commentary during the edit. I don't work from a set script, preferring to watch the footage and speak as I find. Sorry about that. Its like patting your head whilst rubbing your tummy at the same time, sometimes. Lol 😆 🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors ofcourse its like the americans cant pronounce edinburgh properly lol so being scottish it annoys me lol

At least you know how to spell it now as well. 😀

Hi thanks for watching. We have to admit, we've seen it busy before. It just seemed to have more people around 🙂🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors Have you been to Arran yet...??

Hi yes, been and stayed before, not on camera. We use Arran as a jumping point to the Highlands. Saves the tedious drive up the M74. Love it and we'll end the trip with a night stop on Arran 😊🐕🚙

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Yes, you're right about the Lake District. We lived in Keswick for 8 years and we went back recently for our wedding anniversary. There were 8 dogs in our pub, all well behaved under the table and people without dogs were coming to stroke them. Like you say Wetherspoons's loss🙄🐕🚙

Hi. It's an old term. In the days of black and white lol...stair carpets weren't fitted edge to edge. They just ran up the centre of each step, held in place by Stair rods. So when the rain is extremely heavy, it looks like there's no individual drops, but it's coming down in straight continous lines. Hence, it is coming down in stair rods.😁🐕🚙

Hi. No offence taken. We totally understand and are sorry for this issue. Yes, Creators do have control over the volume. The problem we have personally shoukd be resolved for any future content. Can't speak for other channels. Our problem was that we didn't have any microphones, so any voice audio was so quiet, the volume had to be increased as much as possible and still sometimes it was difficult to hear. Meaning there was no option for the viewer but to turn up the volume. We have noticed ourselves that many channels edit their music sections at 100% and we also find that too loud sometimes. We limit our music audio to around 68%. Still an issue if you've had to increase the volume for speech clips. We really hope the recently obtained microphones such balance thing out. Thank you for sticking with us and thank you for raising such an important enjoyment issue.😊🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors Thank you very much for such a full explanation. I can understand your mic problems. I will certainly stick with you. Great photography. When I lived in UK, I travelled a lot around the country in our motorhome, including Scotland, of course. Beautiful scenery in Scotland and Wales. I wish you well on your journeys.

Thank you and you're very welcome. So whereabouts in our wonderful world do you reside now, if you don't mind us asking? 😊🐕🚙

Thank you. Guess it's my laid back Yorkshire attitude. No dramatics here lol 😁🐕🐕🚙

Tourist prices, but they're not far off £9 takeaway price around here in Cumbria. We pais almost £20 in the famous Frankie's in Shetland (eat in) mind you...they were amazing! 😬🐕🚙

Hi. We used to live in Keswick and went back recently. Most pubs, shops allow dogs in. As long as the owners are sensible, as you say dogs under their own table it works. There were 6 dogs in our pub when we had lunch. Could be a little unpleasant if all 6 had been wet, but no bother and other customers seemed to enjoy petting them. 🙂🐕🚙

yes much more friendly atmosphere when dogs are around i think? also was in london about 2 years ago with step son he wanted a coffeee while waiting so gave him a fiver and off into shop he went, came back out and said cash only lol! anyway went around corner and found a charity shop cafe and 2 ladies inside with dogsso we went in and had a coffee and a chat and the coffee was half the price of the woke cash only coffee bar catering for virtue signallers so happy days i say @@the-other-windsors

😁 we both remember them being one and six! Once walked home instead of using the bus fare my mum gave me. So I could buy some chips for 6 old pennies!😊🐕🚙

Good morning. Sorry if we caused any offence. The comment regarding civilisation was because we'd been on the road for 3 weeks, staying first in Shetland. We don't as a rule stay in laybys, so having other vans there felt more comfortable. We weren't insinuating that it's dangerous in Scotland, far from it. We love Scotland, but not everyone loves us. 🙄🐕🚙

Same when we go south Im afraid not everyone down there like Scottish people . However you can stay pretty much anywhere in Scotland for the night but not in England nor is it very safe , no offence oh sorry .

Thanks guys. We hadn't realised just how far that drive was from The Kyle of Lochalsh... 76 miles of beautiful scenery. As for cupboard space in our Buddy... We like him to Dr Who's Tardiss.. Just one issue with have so many nooks and crannies... Remembering just which one we put things in lol 😂🐕🚙

Another great blog, Oban is lovely been up there a couple of times, sorry about Wetherspoons😅

We waited even longer than the film suggests, cut alot lol. Never seen a truck that big! Yes, very disappointing and short sited of Wetherspoons. 🙄🐕🚙

Thanks Steve. Yes, we love Oban too and yes, Wetherspoon's loss 🙂🐕🚙

They stopped letting dogs in about 2 years back think its lost them lots of buisness but you got to eat better food

Really. Just goes to show how often we visit. Shame 🙄🐕🚙

No we don't. We live on the west coast and are currently awaiting storm Isha's arrival. Hoping everyone stays safe😌🐕🚙

Awh bless. We're pleased you're enjoying our videos and they're bringing back memories for you. Sure much has changed 😊🐕🚙

Hi. Thanks for watching. We have to agree. We've had so many named storms this winter. Already uo to letter "H" and 2 came along one after the other. We have severe flooding. We'd love to see the first best place in the world, but it's beyond us...shame 🤔🐕🚙

Hi Kevin. Thanks for watching. Sorry, we need to put some time text on our videos. It was taken back in May, during a month long trip, which included Shetland, Orkney and part of the NC500. It's taken this long to post the footage at one video a week. 🤔🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsorsKevin wasn’t paying attention ,was he?….you did say May Bank Holiday as you entered Oban…..

Oh, so we did 🤔🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors I should have said how much I enjoyed your journey( and I’m definitely old enough to know what stair rods are!). Good luck to you both.

@user-ui5tq6mc9p Thanks and good to know, you know what stairrods are lol 😆 🐕🚙

Hi. Thank you for watching. We were pulled over to make room for that HUGE truck 🙂🐕🚙

There are some to be honest. Shetlands roads considering the weather are really good. Not been to Wales in the van yet 😊🐕🚙

Your only seeing up north central Scotland is a disgrace

Thanks for watching. Sorry that you didn't like the music 🙄🐕🚙

Everyone has different music tastes. There’s no need to be rude.

Sorry?

Funny you should say that. We often miss lunch when we're out on the road and even just have a slice of toast for lunch when at home. 👍🐕🚙

????

We would expect so. Think that's a legal requirement 🙂🐕🚙

Thank you for your comment 😔🐕🚙

Hi. We don't usually stay in laybys as it can attract unwanted attention. Not everyone loves a camper. Trust us.. We know!! 😐🐕🚙

Thanks. The weather at the start of the trip on Shetland wasn't so kind 😬🐕🚙💨🌧

Hi. Thanks for watching and commenting. We're a little confused regarding our continuity. We left Oban, travelling South to Knapdale. Always heading South except going a little back north after Kintyre to catch the ferry to Arran? However, if you are working your way down the playlist. KZfaq orders them, newest content first. So if you continue watching down the list, we'll be continuing to head north. Pleased you liked the music. 🤔🐕🚙

It doesnae matter in the whole scheme o things💁‍♂️👍

Hi we've actually eaten in Oban Wetherspoons on 2 separate occasions in that outdoor area. Mind you, it was back in 2017 and 18 respectively. Not been back due to Covid till this year. 😕🐕🚙

Sounds like a plan. Don't know why they stopped it outside. People used to love petting our Blue. They always asked first. Sensible, not all dogs would like that. Always quiet under the table. We ate inside a pub in Keswick recently, honestly 8 dogs...8 and all quiet 🤔🐕🚙

Away you go! Well done 'Spoons: dogs should not be permitted in restaurants.

Thanks for watching 🙂🐕🚙

Thank you and sorry for my politically negative comment . I really loved your video .. it makes me want to explore Scotland as you have done. The scenery looks incredible . I normally only go as far as the Lake District from the South.

@@nickclarkuk Thank you. No worries. We appreciate that and please do head further North. You don't have to go right up to the Highlands. The border lands have their own beauty too 🙂🐕🚙

Hi Alan. We can't speak for anyone else, but we can assure you no script. Just, telling the story. 🙂🐕🚙

There are not talking funny they are English

We only said "reasonable" as they're the same price here in England, in some places more! 😔🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors £4 in my local Chinese, and £7 at the English takeaway 😁 It's like when coffee was cheap until the likes of Starbucks came along,now all the little cafes follow I refuse to pay it😉

@74quo We know. Called into a Costa in a service area recently. No other choice and was charged £4 for my takeaway coffee!!😯🐕🚙

@@the-other-windsors I have a motorhome and I understand we have to get out and about and mix with people, so I will occasionally use them but I ain't paying £12 for fish n chips. Scotland ain't as cheap as I thought.!!

It is very challenging, but then not everyone likes dogs 🤔🐕🚙

It's shame. It does make visiting with a dog more difficult, but good to know that it's opening up a bit more. 🙂🐕🚙
