The Waverley is still a working paddle steamer that does tours up the Clyde. It's out of season just now xx
oh will have to come back to see that❤
Folklore has it at the battle of Largs, the vikings landed and were in bare feet to be quite. They stood on thistles and their fries alerted the Scottish Army and the battle began
The king then declared the thistle as the national flower of Scotland...another great vlog as usual.
I hope that is true… what a great story
oh my god that’s the best historical story i have heard love it ❤
Well it was 1263...so pre Wikipedia. 🤣
Seems they overcooked their french fries, their burnt oder alerting the Scottish army...
Hi mark and Lisa love your channel guys it would be good to see mark do his top 10 Chinese he has had. Keep up the good work 👍
The person was pulled from water but was taken to hospital as a precaution if this was on the Wednesday 7th feb but was fine according to news reports x
Another great video ❤❤❤ xxx

Loving your Scotland trips 😊 chicco looking great, keep on enjoying yourselves in your motorhome and taking us to some interesting places xx
A fee is charged the merchant in order for them to offer the option of using a credit card and many Chinese won’t pay that fee. Thus cash only.
Iam a new subscriber from San Diego. You both crack me up, and your Chico is lovely. I can’t shop with my hubby either at our thrift stores, I tell him go home relax get your beer!!! lol 😂 🇺🇸🇬🇧🐾🐾🐕🐶
Brilliant vlog Lisa, Mark & Chico. Hope yous sort the battery folk's. Take care and see you on the next vlog. ❤
We are down in Largs every summer, great place. It is packed! We get the ferry to Millport too, wee place, wee treasure. Again, another great vlog of somewhere on my doorstep x

Lovely blue skies in Largs. You got some really good bargains in the charity shops, I never find any new stuff! Loving the drone footage. Hope you get a new battery soon.😊
Another great vlog, thank you Lisa, Mark and Chico. Would be great to see you Island hopping, might be best to maybe avoid the height of summer though as it can get very busy up here. Safe travels ❤️xx
Great film from the drone ☺️

Drone footage is always great.
Thanks 👍❤️🐕
Great to see yous in Largs . Pity weather stopped you from going to Millport ! You should def do an island hop Millport during the summer has quite a few events happening so you should check them out for dates but does get busy on ferry but they have 2 in summer months 1 every 15 mins .
We will!
I've cycled round the island numerous times as a kid and an adult. We used to cycle round and then get ice cream in Milport before coming back over to the mainland. You brought some memories back for me :)
such a shame we didn’t make it over was looking forward to it ❤
Good to see you’re getting some blue skys 👌
Yeah thanks it made such a difference xx
I quit fancy trying a battered mars bar mark ! 😊
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi love your videos it was good to see Largs and have a walk around with you, a few years ago in August we drove through Largs on way back to a campsite it was evening time we smelt the fish and chips and decided to stop and get some parked the van got out and were attacked by midges had to get straight back in and leave, never got our fish suppers 😢😢
oh no😱😱😱😱😱😱 they are rife at certain months of the year
I do the Viking Festival every September for 10 days. It’s great fun
it sounds it eileen and bob ❤
Another great vlog and drone footage lovely bargains yoiu got lisa do island hoppung x
thank you diane 😂😂
You 2 seems lovely genuine people ❤
we are just very normal genuine down to earth as that’s the best kinda person to be ❤️❤️thanks for watching xxxp
@@NorthernersonTour definitely mate same here better to be then finking ur above your Self ❤️
Sorry I would of brought a new battery by now especially when your travelling in remote area's. Thanks for these great blogs.
Glad you like them! battery was purchased later that day can all good now xx.
Enjoyed guys
thank you jenny
Shops that only take cash can lie to the tax man about how many customers they have and so how much tax they pay
When Lisa asked why are all Chinese restaurants cash only, not to put give the exact reason away, but just 2 words .... Chinese laundry. 😎
😮😮😮😮❤
good vid on travels
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Lisa Mark and chico when ye coming tae paisley Scotland very historic town yu will love our history plenty too see mark will love the Chinese cuisine and charity shops fur yerself xx
You went to Largs but did not stop in at Nardini's! best ice cream ever made too! Love your vids by the way. Am Scottish but living now in California.
it was closed up pete 😢
Haha. Funny to see the photo bombers in this video.
🤣🤣🤣made us laugh when we edited it 🤣🤣
Have been watching you all for a while now and I know our good friends met you at the SEC Linda and Charles
If your near to Ayr we would be happy to meet you all for a blether xx
There are also lots of charity shops in Prestwick and in Ayr
Next time! our vlog are filmed two weeks in advance so we have been and left when you see it on sunday huni xx
We go to Largs a lot
Aileen does the Viking Festival every year ….runs for 8 days …fun fairs,market stalls and a Viking village .
On the 2nd Saturday of it there is a procession and the burning of a Viking boat ..plus fireworks
The bit you parked at the marina is as you say rammed in summer …there’s a cmc cl in the marina but it’s £37.50 a night for basically a part of car park
we can imagine it being busy bob but sounds fun ❤❤
The paddle steamer (the waverley) still runs every summer, its a great dayout! You could have parked at the boating pond at irvine beach park. it's more sheltered. You sould definitely do some island hoping, there beautiful.
defo will be back to see the steamer ❤❤
You could have got that little truck for Chico.😊
😂😂😂
Hope both ok and chicco campervan life must have some really ups and downs at times . Not sure about marks love of battered mars bar makes me feel uneasy like you Lisa .
You should try one 😂
The town next to mine, Andernos les Bains is twinned with Largs and there's an association that organise exchanges, sometimes folks from Largs come here and vica versa. Obviously they love it here on the Arcachon Basin it's much warmer 😊
thanks for that it’s cool to know ❤❤❤
Hi Lisa and Mark, i live in Millport and wish you had jumped on the ferry and popped over. Our fish and chip shop only opens on a Friday and Saturday and our Chinese is closed until the weekend so Mark would have been disapointed but there's plenty to do and see. Love your videos so keep 'em coming and glad that the awful wind has died down and you had sunny weather.😊
yes was looking forward to coming over maybe next time ❤❤❤❤
@@NorthernersonTour If I know when you're coming over I'll treat you both to some fish and chips or a Chinese. Our wee island is only ten and a quarter miles round but there's plenty to do and see, especially in the summer months and the fish and chip shop and Chinese will be open most days. We are in the Guiness book of records twice...we have the smallest Cathedral in Britain and we also have the narrowest house in Britain. Hope you managed to get a new battery ok in Kilmarnock, Mark. Take care both of you.🥰
It’s the Isle of Cumbrae - full circle 12miles the island. Great place to visit in season. Walk or cycle round ….couple of hours bike ride. @Mark your motor home will fit on the ferry 😂
yes they fit lorry’s in them i think he thought it was a wooden one that you pull your self across on 😂😂😂❤
@@NorthernersonTour 😂😂😂😂 that was maybe back in the Viking days 😂
Enjoyed watching 😊
@Mark the motorhome looks so clean have you been busy
Yup Chinese always Cash where we’ve been too 😂
Thanks for watching close up she is mingin 🤣❤️
Another entertaining video ❤🎉
Yay, thank you!
Largs is a nice wee place. Millport is also great place to visit.
It sure is!
My local Chinese take away only accepts cash only as well 😊
Thanks
Thanks so much.
Another very interesting and brilliant video guys 👍🏻 when you guys go to Europe. I really hope you visit Germany! I want to go there this year would love to hear and see your review.
Thanks for your comment, we are planning on visit Germany while in Europe so watch this space!
@@NorthernersonTour oh brilliant! I’m always watching your videos 👍🏻 I can’t wait for you to do Germany, brilliant guys 👍🏻
Little bit towards new battery 🔋 love lulu and Paul 🚐🦋🇬🇧
can not thank you enough ❤❤❤ love you all ❤❤
SMASHING PHOTOGRAPHY FOLKS✌️💯👍👏👏👏👏
thank you sheila ❤
Glad you did not use the incident with the S&R as click bait. plenty of kiddie tube would do, We where at LLanfaireckin as I spell it, last autumn there was car /water suicide and the back story was really sad. As Mark says it could be training as they will use a lot of resources for effect.
no we have morals on this channel ❤ and it turns out it was real accident not training ❤❤
iam supprised we have never bumped into on the road@@NorthernersonTour
🇬🇧🦋🚐lovely video , wouldn’t want to sharpen the big pencil 😊
Loved the drone footage .
Lisa Charity shops what great bargains love your handbag reminds me of Stella McCartney bag .. love the TShirt you bought Mark ..
Chicco really reminds us of our Harley he is 14 now still gorgeous .. he watches him on screen
Mark finds another Chinese .
I hope the person was ok 👌
You all 3 take care and safe lulu and Paul xx🚐🦋🇬🇧
omg thank you so so so much for your generous super thanks we will put you on sundays vlog ❤❤
🇬🇧🦋no worries , just our way to say thank you , 🙏🏻 ❤️❤️❤️lulu and Paul xx
If you go to Ayr you'll get a shock if you've been before its a ghost town now, brought up there but left years ago, such a shame to see how its become
Bloody battery!!!! Still if you get a new one now that's it ticked off the to do list. 🎉OH I knew you were a technician of some sort Mark. I always said how fabulous to have you around. Saves a bundle of money 💰. 💰!!!!!!😊
he really does sheila ❤
@@NorthernersonTour Absolutely Lisa 💯 Anyone watching & listening can tell how smart and knowledgeable Mark is with engines, I T and all that complicated stuff. Worth his weight in gold.😇💯✌️👍🤗
You missed out bute when talking about the islands ,the best of all 😀
We will be back !
You should have stopped in Gourock, just past Greenock, its lovely I live there now, much more scenic than Wigan, where I come from 😬
i can imagine sandra ❤❤❤❤
Anywhere is more scenic than Wigan,Sandra lol. Wigan likes to brag it has lots of scenic places but technically they aren't in Wigan but are in Wigan Metro and they just like to claim credit😉 Mind you.... Bolton is deffo going down the tubes. I much prefer Atherton where I live now cos you can go to Athy town centre and pick from any of 45 barbers, 300 nail bars, 14 million tatto parlors and three kibab shops. Its a truly epic shopping experience🤣🤣🤣
Aye......
Come over to Arran................
Lots to see over here....
Irvine my home town where I'm watching you from.
we arrived late and slept and went the next morning as the weather was bad will have to re visit
Cold weather knocks smoke out of a battery, people always find their battery is duff when the temperature drops really low, you just have to change it, which you have done
yes al sorted now she is 💯 for now 🤞
