- Back on the fields of South Gloucestershire for our fourth Detectival!!
In April we fought floods and frostbite and this time we had to cope with sweltering heat 🥵 what a difference a few months make!!
But after a slow Saturday the Sunday produced the goods!!

Love the enthusiasm from Simon,he was like a dog with two tails👏🏻
Haha 😂 yes, he’s some
Man 👨🏻 he has the bug now
Totally agree John,treated the missus to tickets as she's the detectorist and I'm the spade man, but after 6hrs on Saturday(with many shade breaks)and very few finds even she couldn't raise the enthusiasm to start again sunday,no-one we spoke to had anything special and all seemed disappointed with the field prep but at least the cider was cold.Thanks for your usual entertaining video and congrats to Simon
It was a tough weekend. The Badminton Estate has been hammered by Detectorists for years and the footfall for events also means it’s littered with junk. The Victorian and Georgian stuff was devoid in most fields and the lack of such finds tells you all you need to know.
Yes some good stuff came up but I didn’t see a single pre-decimal silver and only four or five pre-decimal coins, so it’s been heavily detected for a long time.
But for the Saturday weather I’m sure more good stuff might have come up, but I take Detectival as more of a social event these days and if something good comes up great, but I appreciate for most they want good land and finds!
Happy hunting and maybe see you in a future dig!
John that was a pure pleasure to meet you at Detectival!! 🎉
We were proper surprised and Turbo happy when we found out you sent us a greeting and added our selfie! Cheers pal🙌🫠
We need to hit a field together soon.
Greetings from the fields of Edinburgh shire🤣

My day started at detectival with, while tha a garret not working ,I was in despair , I luckily came across a garret tent with a few friendly technicians who away to me , changed my circuit board while they were repairing it , john and Marty were there , well what a couple of gents they were , chatted away to me and both were very humble , , the kind technician got my detector sorted and met a couple of gents all in 10 mins ,, made my weekend , I got no great finds but that experience was enough to make me keep the hobby going , it’s not all about what’s in the ground
Hi Patrick! I remember the moment well and fair play to Garrett and Regton for getting you up and running again cost free. I actually met several people over the weekend who had similar stories of customer service from Regton and that kind of service is worth it’s weight in gold, so well done them!!
It was lovely to meet and I’m glad me and sweaty Martyn didn’t put you off too much 😂
Sorry like me you didn’t come up with the goods, but that’s detecting for you!
See you in the next!!
Best wishes
John
Thanks John , pleasure meeting you and Marty , , look forward to more Perthshire finds 👍
One of the factors which makes your channel so enjoyable, apart from your charm and extensive historical knowledge, is the camaraderie and leg-pulling that exists between yourself and your detectorist pals, sneaky Pete, Martin and the humble Simon. It’s a very enviable group!
Many thanks, I’m glad you enjoy! We have a light hearted approach to life and detecting and love nothing more than poking fun at one another and our different machines 😂
Simon is a lucky guy, nice finds and happy he was, nice video mate 👍👍
Many thanks! I’m out with him again today 🙈
Yeah, clothing and leather hat not 90 degree stuff...glad you didnt push it and faint like a delicate lily in the field. Thanks for bringing us along! We enjoyed it..Hope you enjoyed it enough for all the effort.
I had a linen shirt, lightweight trousers but it all counted for nothing 😆 🥵 heat I’ve never detected in that’s for sure 😯
"I'm not made for this weather, I'm scottish" 😂😂
Well done Simon, double Roman silver. 👏 👏
Great video John. 👍
@@thescottishdetectoristyou need a tshirt & shorts, trust me I know, regards from Australia
Huge congratulations to Simon. 🎉 The lead piece was hysterical. It seems detectival = extreme weather of one kind or another. Thank you for sharing your adventure.
Not the best detectival for yourself John bit gotta love watching Simon such a great character and full of life and 2 amazing bucket listers for him and well done marty too 👏🏻 great video as always John thanks for sharing keep up the hard work mate 👍
Thanks for sharing again.
My kind of weather. Lol
And Simon, that smile says it all. Congratulations on your finds.
Thanks for that hope you have a brilliant weekend keep safe brother tezza 👍 😊
Many thanks my man
Such a great film that John, like you say it’s more about the social as well as the diggin but the Ledgend Simon what an absolute master of comedy and entertainment was so funny when he chucked that lead back to the hole, laughing mi ass off but those two silver Roman wow. Brilliant viewing really enjoyed it glad y’all had a grand time, yes summer and 30degrees can bugger off now.
Classic moment of film John, still laughing Simon the Legend 🤣 all the best to you all
On the next Detectival we will allow you to adopt Simòn for the whole weekend 😂
@@thescottishdetectorist ohhh erm yeah well erm, yeah no, no no oh go on then he’s an absolute master of comedy 🤣🤣👍🏻
aaaawww, that's treasure too, right there at 42:40 🐈⬛🐕🦺 💓
Haha 😂 cat clawing the dogs face off…. Honestly they are always scrapping that pair 😂 🥊
Simon gets silvers and a laugh because we all saw him throw it there! You are are a great teacher and I love that you enjoy your friends’ finds so much. 🥰💕❤️👍👍 Being a flint knapper, I also loved seeing the flint flake.
My appreciated Terry! I was made up for Simòn. Can’t believe how lucky he was!! And that he swore multiple times adding to my video editing! 😂
Such miserable weather. I’m not built for the heat either. Hence why I live in the tundra of the US. Congratulations to Simon…sorry your weekend wasn’t better for finds. Thank you for sharing John.
Well it could have been better but it could have been worse. I’d rather have hot and sunny than wind and rain! So it was a great social event for me if nothing else!
Nice digs Simon, love his reacts to his finds!🍻🍻
Many thanks. He’s some boy I tell you!! I had to remove some bad language 🤬 in both English and Spanish 🇪🇸 😂
You did make some good memories despite the conditions. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Mark. Really tough conditions and heat but I still had fun and I’m
Over the moon 🌙 Martyn and Simon got some good finds!!
Hi John, this is my first comment I've wrote since I've been subscribed to your channel which must be over 6 months by now & just want to say how much I look forward to your new videos. Got to say well done to Simon for finding the 2 Roman coins awesome 👍🏴
Many thanks Mark. I appreciate your support and taking the time to comment! I hope those thunder storms over Wales weren’t too harsh!! They looked bad from our end anyway!!
@@thescottishdetectorist It was an amazing electrical storm that lasted a good couple of hours 👍🏴
Simon is hilarious! Nice finds though!! Geez that was hot, don't blame you for chilling for most of it. The tents looked awesome, great idea. Look forward to seeing what you find back in bonnie wee Scotland 😀
Many thanks. A tough weekend and I’m just glad to be home and cooler and beck on the fields of Perthshire!!!
@@thescottishdetectorist I bet you are! I could do with some Scottish weather, fed up with the heat now - tell me again why I moved to Cyprus?!. Have a good weekend.
Thanks for the reality. Great stuff for Martin and Simon. Long, long drive for you without much result. 😢
It was a long way for not a lot but went out once home and smashed it with some silver!!! Video just posted! But it was a great event and fantastic to meet so many people
@The Scottish Detectorist
John as a longtime Floridian and having also spent years in other even more tropical places I gave you some very good directions on how to deal with a hot, sunny climate including how to dress to minimize the effects of the heat and sun.
This was in the comments on one of your previous videos.
I see that you either missed or completely ignored that experience based advice so I'll try again:
Wear loose fitting lightweight and lightly colored clothing. That goes for your hat as well. Your hat should be light in color and of a type you can wet with water. As the water evaporates it will naturally have a dramatic cooling effect. Keep it wet.
Drink PLENTY of water AND a Sports Drink of some kind that contains electrolytes.
Thanks for the great info. In the unlikely event I’m ever stupid enough to detect in such conditions ever again I’ll do exactly as you suggest!! Thanks 😊
I'd be sweating too, with such a winter style hat, long trousers and warm boots.
Haha 😂 yes, I could have chosen a better outfit that’s for sure 😆
Banger of a video! I was laughing so much at the Simon shenanigans and also so excited for him. If he wasn't hooked before, he is now!
Sorry we missed you at Detectival. Well done to Simon.
Another time I hope! Happy hunting
Whether you find treasure or not, your videos are *always* super to watch. Thanks John, and well done everyone who slogged in the heat 🥵 (YT treasure 33.2 ...well done you👍)
Thanks for the kind words and I’m glad you enjoyed!! Much appreciated. Happy to be back on the cooler fields of Perthshire that’s for sure!!
Well done Simon fantastic silvers and a very enjoyable video 🤩😂👍
And YES, welcome to Simon on his finds!...I thought you might have a stroke when he went to wipe them clean though...;)
LOL
Haha 😂 yes I keep telling him don’t wipe and scratch but he always wants to wipe and scratch the things 😂 it was funny, off camera he couldn’t get the lid of his finds pouch as his hands were shaking so much 😆
Hi John,it certainly was hot, I didn't spot you as there was to much sweat in my eyes, a great weekend, I found a 1643 Charles 1st shilling and a late 18th century silver teaspoon by the maker John Lambe of London, absolutely delighted. Thanks for the inspiration. 😁
Well done Nigel. Sounds like you had a great weekend with some quality finds!! Hopefully see you on the next one!!
Yes mate, I'll buy you a pint.😁
I'm disappointed that I couldn't meet you in person.. my tent was literally behind you.. maybe next time it will work out 😁 congratulations on the silver Roman coins.. greetings from Ireland👋👋☘️☘️
Sorry I missed you!! Next time I’ll fly a flag !!
See you next time
Lucilla would have been happy to know that nearly 2,000 years after her short life she is still remembered in silver denarii found in the ground in distant Britannia
Exactly. I doubt anyone will remember me after all those years!! ❤️
Hello to all your friends John..
You've done awesome getting Simon started detecting, he's hooked for life now. I know the feeling, when I found that stone hammer head in Fallujah, Iraq; I'll tell you what I was over the moon then, to bad I couldn't keep it.
Many thanks. Yes, he’s well and truly hooked now, always asking me when he can come to detect on my fields 😂
Oh boy Simon never disappoints 😂 that whole lead piece 😂 Glad you managed to stay hydrated 🍻 through the sweltering heat! Looks like a great time with new and old friend!
Terrific finds for Simon! 😁Also, the very interesting historical connection of Lucilla. I very much enjoyed seeing your pets, as my 7 week old kittens run around like a tornado. God bless
Thanks Julia. Yes, lucky Simòn!! Not so lucky me! But at least the dog and cat managed to sneak into the shot 😂
Martin's coin at 9:07 is a very torn up modern 50 Bani coin from Romania.
That was a brilliant video John and absolutely fantastic coins, Muy Bueno Simon 🎉. Yes that first day was tough and we lasted till 3.30 and gave up. 😅. Sorry we didn’t get to see you again this time as we stayed off site but the whole event was good fun.
Well done you for lasting so long on the Saturday!! I was given up by 10.30am or so!! Hopefully see you at a future rally!
Yes hope so, it was tough though and yes we headed for a beer straight after on both days after finding very little! Next time instead of hoping to follow you - we’ll follow Simon, Marti and Pete! 😂
Well done Simon!
Lol, Old Simon is a wee bit of a character. Lucky find!. The silver denarius are worth around 350-400$ each Only madmen and Englishmen go out in the noonday sun!
A character is an understatement 😂 yes, apparently much more valuable coins and she’s not that common, and the second coins was in great condition too 😯
Sitting here in Texas laughing. Our summers are hellacious. Even in September we’ve seen 112 degrees lately. You might need a lighter hat. A perforated fabric or straw. Good hunting. Love your channel!
Many thanks. Just shows you how much we aren’t genetically designed for such weather! I don’t know how you do it 😯
That kind of heat was totally unexpected. It should have been about 60oF so didn’t have the right type of clothes! But I’ll know for next time!! Best wishes
It was ridiculously hot John, congratulations to Martin, Pete and particularly Simon on their finds, Pauine and I were keeping an eye for you but no sign. And as for finds we did as well as you. A great coverage John and Simon is hilarious.
Sorry I missed you! It would have been great to have seen you again, but next time I hope!! Best wishes to you both
Props to the land owner for granting permission!
It could have been better it could have been worse!
Love watching you guys! Wish we were 30 degrees C. South Texas has been pushing 40 degrees and over most days this summer!
That kind of heat 🥵 😮 I couldn’t cope, in fact I’d melt
Thank you for sharing the video you made, congratulations Simon good job. Pryor to ten days ago it was in the105 F here where I'm at. Doing anything outside was a big No way.
Incredible heat 🥵 I don’t know how survive. Simon is now totally hooked
Well done to Simon on his double Roman silver. I'll claim it was due to watching hours of Aussie Equinox tutorials in the car en route to the event. Heck, for us, 30 Celcius is a pleasant day. Make sure you never visit Australia in summer, John. You'll perish in our 38 to 40 C! 🌞
Many thanks Tony. Simon is now well and truly hooked! Many thanks
@@thescottishdetectorist and, I have to ask... you seemed to be wearing rubber gumboots (Wellington boots, Wellies) in the 30 degree heat, or am I mistaken?
Just a tip to add to probably the best tips In the world (yep am down for a bit of plagiarism😅 now n then😂) when hot weather hits, hat, sunglasses, loose fit teeshirt,shorts PLENTY OF WATER, and my tip of the year, steer clear of the alcohol, it dehydrates!!! Take it from someone who lives in the sun AND without the aid of aircon!! We've suffered 46° this year (122°!!) And with a poniente wind bluwing, hot winds from Africa, like living in a Tumbledryer on full blast!! Anyway hilarious as usual though shame your luck wasnt in. Trust Señor Simón to find double Silver!! Enhorabuena Simón! Que suerte tienes!!
Cant wait for your next video John. Much love Chez 😘😘
Martin's first find was a piece of pre- or just post war motor car rust, possibly a Morris judging by the colour and thickness of the enamel paint. Badminton has had car shows and autojumbles on site.
Haha 🚗 there you go!! Thanks
Wilted but happy. Poor ol Simon finally hits it big
Ridiculous!! 😆 he’s banned from all future digs especially as he’s better looking too
@@thescottishdetectorist 🤣
Crazy fun adventure. Simon saved the day with finds and funnies. Love your channel. Thanks for sharing!!!
Many thanks. Happy times if not great finds for me but I loved it!!
Thanks for the video. Not good weather, but lots of good friends.
Many thanks. Terrible finds for me, but what finds for Martyn and Simòn steals the show
What a cracking couple of finds Simon got, but a great comedic episode too. Thanks for sharing John, I have to confess I didn't even try going out on my permissions in that heat. The Thunderstorm looked superb! 👍👍😉
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed and well done Simòn!!
Ah well, it can't be all gold coins. Watching you in the heat makes me wonder about all the Scotsmen and Englishmen who helped settle Texas. Apparently there were quite a few fresh off the boat. Surprised they all didn't die out their first summers. Congrats to Simon. At least this time he realized he had a silver coin.
Many thanks. It was tough going but I’m glad at least Simòn and Martyn came up with some goodies!!
Poor Pete was the most dedicated of all of us, he detected about 8hrs each day despite the weather and got next to nothing!! Next time!!
ah yes, forgot about Marty's roman. Good on him too!
Great video, loved the cat and dog
Many thanks Sherry. Much appreciated!! Maybe I’ll need to make them a permanent fixture 😂
Martin's goldish metal at about the 7 minute mark is the remnants of a carabiner.
Thanks Richard. His heart skipped a beat when he exposed a little gold I can tell you !!
Cheers buddy. Hope you had a terrific time. Really enjoyable stuff watching. Thank you. Shout out to Simon. Double Roman.! Can't fault him. Bless up 👊
Great video John. Very well done to Simon on his double Silver and Marty for his Roman finds. I stuck it out until 4.30 on Saturday and the closing seconds on Sunday. Saturday was crazily hot. Slept like a baby that night. Was good to bump into you. Spoke to the guys Friday night briefly whilst you rested actually 😄
Hey Del. Glad you survived the weather!! Too hot for me but I’m glad at least two of us got finds that made it all worthwhile! Poor Pete did about 8hrs both days and found not a lot so I’m glad I conserved my energy!!
That was fun. Congratulations to Simon and Martin on the Roman finds!
Many thanks IDD …. You can’t win them all but back out on the fields of Perthshire soon!!
Fantastic video. Well done Simon and Martin(sp?). Thank you.
Many thanks. Some good stuff for two out of four is better than we could have hoped for given the conditions!!
You make me laugh John with your sense of humour. The weather has been quite cruel lately so don’t worry that it’s because you’re Scottish. I went up to Glasgow and Edinburgh a couple of months back and the best thing I came back with was 18 mosquito bites all over my body and still haven’t healed yet lol ( fierce blighters ) thanks for a great video and congratulations to the Spanish Peacock finding the x2 silver Romans 🤗👍
I'm Scottish and when I was up in the Highlands I got so many midgie bites ( the wee hooligans knew I was a townie) it took almost 2 years for the scars to disappear 😢
Yowzer 🦟
Glad you enjoyed!! Yes over the moon 🌙 for big Simon!! It made the trip all worthwhile and I’m glad to be back on the cooler fields of Perthshire that’s for sure!!
Can’t wait for the next instalment John 👍
Unbelievable. No person deserves it more than Simon, such a funny and friendly human being! Lovely meeting you all.. it was an absolute pleasure, memories made that I won’t forget😁
Jamie I have to totally disagree with you. The persons who deserved the Roman silver most were me, Pete and Marty for putting up with Simòn for four days 😂
It was great meeting you! I think I’ve got Simons company again on Monday metal detecting oh no 🙈
@@thescottishdetectorist you’ve plenty of silver romans John hush 😂😂
Wow those Romans!!! Congratulations Simon
😄 Wonderful to see your finds! What fun to share with your mates. Take care, stay cool! 😅
Nice finds. Good old time camping life🙂
Gotta love that green waste shrapnel :-(
I had an awful time. Gave up at midday on Saturday. Went to go out again at 1500, but arthritis in my left foot was agony and still bad on Sunday, so went home. One button and a tiny trade token is all I came away with.
Hi Peter. Glad you made it but I feel your pain (my knee) and also the detecting. It was rough for me and you too it seems. Saturdays weather certainly didn’t help 😆
Hilarious!
It was a laugh a minute. Simon also found a musket ball and interesting smoking case and lost them both 😂 before I had a chance to see them
@@thescottishdetectorist he's constant entertainment at the least 🤣
OH WHAT A JOY! I’m looking forward to seeing this episode. Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend.
Much appreciated. Enjoy the event!!
Sorry about that American south style heat -- I'm of Scottish descent, but grew up with the heat. You need to save that winter blizzard cattleman's hat for one with lots of ventilation or even a straw hat or pith helmet -- you're going to cook your brain wearing that thing in hot weather.
Many thanks!! Much appreciated. I’ll know for next time. Usually at this time of year we’d expect 60oF so 90+ was totally unexpected and as a result I had the wrong gear!! Best wishes
yippe you back
I survived the heat of England Alan…. But only just 🥵
Simon was not the lucky beginner last time. He is now. Nice finds!
Unbelievable!! Two Detectivals…. Three silver!!! A 1300’s silver hammered coin the first time and now two 1,800 year old Roman silver 🤩
The coin is a romanian 50 Bani coin!
Even if it looks pretty old it is probably from the last few years👍
Thanks for the info!! Much appreciated
Thinking about subscribing. I am an old school detectorist. Two tips, right away., when you go in the heat and especially the sun. WHITE hat, very important. Light colored clolthing.
Thanks Jeffery!! I learned my lesson the hard way!!! I’ll know for next time!! Much appreciated
Great Silver Roman for Simon
Unbelievable isn’t it!! He has the luck of the gods!
@@thescottishdetectorist the main thing is the innocence of it!!
Great video John. Can you tell Simon He does not need to use that Bluetooth Transmitter with the minelab Headphones. You only need them if you use different headphones. He just has to pair the Headphones to the detector. 👍
Thanks Colin…. If only Simòn had read the manual he’d know that already but you’ll have now saved him a lot of heart ache!! 😆 thanks
I bet a lot of pints were chugged celebrating Simons silver??? WTG Simon!!!!
Simon drank at least two denarii worth of beer I can tell you 😂
Well deserved!!!
Seems like Simon has taken over the show. Cool beans. I guess he can’t be called the beginner anymore…lol. Great content, John, and a fun time with your buddies. Blessings, my Scottish Detectorist friend, from the beautiful hills of Tennessee.
Just an outstanding video!! I've never laughed so hard as that Simon is the funniest and most likeable character I've witnessed in a video!!! My favorite of all the Detectaville videos I've watched!!!! Congrats to the Spaniard on some incredible coins!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed Ray. You are welcome to share a tent with him for three days!! I was ready to strangle him on the fourth day 🤣 🤪
I always thought you were saying detectorville😆
Haha 😂
I have been waiting for a detectival video! Was thinking how you were coping in the heat. It's hard work metal detecting as it is. Well done to Simon for finding those roman coins, i wish some of his beginners luck would rub off on me! Still yet to find a coin of any sort🙄
Stick at it Leanne! You’ll get there in the end!!
@@thescottishdetectorist thank you😊🤞
Simon: "what's going on here"😂😂
Haha 😂 yes he’s some boy 🤪
At least you had a nice tent this time.
It was amazing…. A great idea!! And split between three the cost was tiny
I don’t blame you for giving up…it was very poor. I had a lovely snake brooch from field 39 and a thousand musket balls.
I saw the brooch!! Amazing, well done you
Seems you had the same experience as me, except unlike me you didn’t lose your musket ball in the campsite after finding it, too hot by far and the ground was baked hard like concrete, those silver Roman coins were a fantastic find though, well done Simon.
Well I don’t lose my musket ball but Simòn did lose his and his sunglasses and he stood on his other sunglasses and broke them too, and he lost his bag of tomatoes and he lost his receiver and he re-found his receiver and he found a match box of silver plate with the original paper advert which he then lost too 😂 honestly!!
Simon great finds ,un besote,por encontrar a Lucila.
Awesome finds by Simon. He must have been buzzin’ !!!
He pretty much went to the pub at lunch time and that was him done 😂 🍻
Ive been subscribed to your channel since not long after you started and im still excited to see every new video. Thanks for all you do to keep us entertained, hopeful and excited. Congratulations to Simon. Great finds there.
Thanks for your continued support and I’m glad Simòn hasn’t scared you off 😂
The coin at 9:13 is a Romanian 50 BANI. It's a modern coin, produced from 2005 onwards, still in circulation. But it's interesting how far it has traveled !
Poor Simon I do that and don’t realise Iv done it throw things away or put them somewhere convinced I still have them lol you had fun with friends that’s the best part oh and finding gold
Unbelievable weekend for Simòn. A great time and much fun had by all!
Simon is always a hoot and he has a great smile! That coin was amazing! Loved seeing your cat and dog at the end. I'm sure they love each other really lol.
You were there having a go. You can only find what you walk over.
Amen 🙏
Simón espero que nada más llegar echases una primitiva. ¡que suerte! Preciosas las monedas. Enhorabuena a todos seguro que pasasteis un rato estupendo.
Congrats to Simon. John I am in Florida and it seems like you got some of our fall weather, sorry you didn't enjoy it. Thanks for sharing your trip with us!
Yes, Simon had the Roman gods shining upon him!! It was good fun, but could have been more finds, but that’s detecting!!
You'd definitely not like the weather here in Arizona! It's almost 3 in the afternoon right now, and it is 38° outside. This is a lot cooler than it has been for the last 3 months. We often don't get below 30° overnight. I would gladly trade temperatures with you anytime 😅
Wow Chuck. I don’t know how you cope!! I’m certainly not emigrating to Arizona anytime soon that’s for sure 😂
@@thescottishdetectorist we do have some ghost towns out here in the desert that I think you would enjoy detecting. They are often difficult to reach. A four wheel drive vehicle is a must to get out to the most isolated places. If you came at any time of the year besides summer, I think you'd fall in love with Arizona.
Awesome ❤ thanks for sharing!
This looks like so much fun, would like to take a trip across the pound to try this sometime. Being able to rent posh tents would be ideal to not have to bring that type of gear.
That lead floral piece I also found one similar it's on my shorts very interesting great stuff and looked very fun 👍
Many thanks!! And happy hunting
Excellent job son 👏. I was out in St Andrews for the first time since my fall and got a robert 2nd silver groat I'm fuckin buzzing
Well done James. A stunning coin 🪙 🤩 well done you
@@thescottishdetectorist not a your level yet son but I'm trying cheers 👍
Simon is a Spanish Mr Bean!❤️😜
You are 100% correct. That’s a perfect description of him 😆
🍀🍀🍀🍻🍻🍻
Much appreciated 🍻
I would have been really ill with sunstroke there. I've had sunstroke in SNOW .😅 I'm from Dundee, so just like you ,not used to the high temperature. P.s. better luck next time ❤
Thanks Janie. That’s why I gave up so early on. I knew it wasn’t worth the risk and I didn’t want to lose the whole weekend by pushing it. I’ve had sunstroke a few times in my younger days and it’s definitely to be avoided!!
Congrats Simon! Nice finds. Bummer with the heat, hope you had fun though.
Many thanks. These things happen… you can’t predict 90oF in September!! But we enjoyed
Great video, congrats to Simon. What a character 😂. Your turn next time!
Well done Simon! He's so cute.
Steady on!! I’ll never let him back on my channel again 😂
