I really enjoyed this video. Thank you, Marek! The Pitt artists pens are great. And lemon marmalade sounds delicious. And the abbey was beautiful and Martin Simon is a silly. And you need a blue emoji. And in the 80s my primary school mate had short hair but a very, long, thin braid down his back.

So sorry about the passing of your friend. Oh blimey, we all immediately recognised the starting off point and end of your walk. We had a meal in The Sloop Inn before getting our Ferry on our last day. We had a carvery which was nice but their veggie option was questionable-I just got two extra yorkshire puddings. Haha!

@shia_labeouf 10 месяцев назад

The fruit came first. Before its import from Europe (Spain and Portugal) the colour was considered a shade of red. This is why Robins are known as "Redbrest" even though their feathers are clearly orange. When the fruit came along we took the name, naranja, anglicised it, then gradually things that colour were described with its name.

My favourite place to chill with a coffee & the piggies🐷🐖. But I've not been to Firestone Copse so will put that on the list to do as the trees look amazing. Rod Stewart haircuts all round.✂ Made my boyfriend have one. Only Bananaman (love him💛) is allowed to slip on Banana skins. Never heard such a wonderful rendition of Greensleeves in my life.🎵 Loving the keyrings. In all the times I've been to the Abbey I have NEVER once bumped into a Monk (true). Where are they hiding?

Cracking walk that one Marek. Nice to meet Graham too. Firestone Copse looks amazing. We're holidaying in St Helens again next year, so that'll be on our list of places to visit. I left School in 1987, so the Mullet hair cut was around then. I remember the 'Side-Burns' had to be trimmed to be above the ears. 😳 I seem to remember some lads used to have the back of their hair made curly. Never really understood that one. 😄 Quarr Abbey is beautiful. We try & go each time we come to the isle. We always use the Cafe, & always make a purchase in the shop as a sign of respect & gratefulness for free entry. That Sunglasses Marek is a nasty piece of work. Don't let him bully you. Tell him to 'Sod Off'. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😃👍 Take it easy Cool Dude. Love your channel.

Haircuts when I was in school were all either juggalo or jersey shore style. Lol Tiny little braids all over the head(but not in like the traditional way, like they call them spider dreads and they purposely try to make them look like spider legs) or a now classic long on one side short on the other, uhhh let's see...the pompadour was just coming back as I left school. The jersey shore hair is literally like, the 60s beehive but slightly smaller, usually with a head band or something and then long otherwise. One of my least favourite hair styles.

So perhaps the colour orange was called mandarin. Then they invented the orange and decided not to call it a Manpom.
