I went to Seahouses when i was a kid with school, we also went to Bamburgh Castle which is right on the coast overlooking the beach.

@Marie-LouiseArt Год назад

Love Northumberland. I agree fake lobster should be called Lobsta. Fake crab are called crabs sticks. They basically use the remnants of the sea creature to bind it together with rubbery like ingredients. Monk fish is my favourite. You don’t need much to bring out it’s natural taste. I love hearing your views on things. It’s fascinating. Come to Cornwall and review some places here. You’ll never leave 😘 You inspire me to create more. Keep going talented one ❤

@MagentaOtterTravels Год назад

@ShaneNixonFamily Год назад

I think we call that lobster stuff "seafood extender" - mostly used in seafood sticks or crab sticks. Totally to be avoided. 😂 The Two Fat Ladies were legends. Popular even here in Oz. I'm pretty sure I've had monk fish but apparently it isn't available in the Southern Hemisphere and we substitute it with something called stargazer (or rock lobster). Looks like your meals were mostly hit and not many misses so that is good. Yay for Northumberland if you avoid dodgy seafood kiosks.

I think Northumberland is a great place to eat. You just have to be sensible and avoid fake seafood, which anyone with a brain would do! 🤣

Banoffee pie was created at a legendary Hungry Monk restaurant in the picturesque little village of Jevington, East Sussex, not far from Eastbourne. Sadly it is no longer, although there is a blue plaque on the wall of what is now a holiday cottage commemorating it's invention in the 1970s. Many is the time I walked passed that restaurant following the South Downs Way.

@@MagentaOtterTravels I live in the Cotswolds, so it's a bit of a trek to Jevington. However, I have been in the Eight Bells, which is a nice pub and I used to regularly do a walk of about 18-20 miles, starting in Eastbourne, which took in the Northern and Southern routes of the South Downs way, which goes through Jevington as well as a whole bunch of other interesting places, like Alfriston (which has the first property ever owned by the National Trust), Belle Toute lighthouse, which was rolled back from the crumbling cliff-edge on rails a few decades ago (it's now a B&B). Then there's Cuckmere Haven, Beach Head, the Seven Sisters, a tiny hidden gem of a village called West Dean, not to mention a lot of sheep. West Dean has a charming Saxon Church dating from before the Norman Conquest. Alfriston is certainly not to be missed.

When I was younger, the Jolly Fisherman was just a nice pub you called into after walking from Dunstanburgh Castle, before buying your kippers and driving home.

It’s of the genus Lophius and is a deep bottom dweller fish living in the North Atlantic from coastal Norway to the Mediterranean. Normally we know it as the Angler fish you used to see in old deep water books, you know, the flat, scaly, ugly fish with an antennae with a glowing tip on it's forehead.. I don’t want to put you off a new found favourite! The fact that it’s natural habitat is European waters could explain why you haven’t seen or tried it before.

Hi Dara, your videos always bring me sunshine and smiles, even when I feel "grey and cloudy". Thanks for doing something good in the world, today and always (•‿•)

@@katemiddletown2345 oh, bless you for saying that! 🙏 I've had many grey and cloudy days lately when it comes to RU-vid . It's been difficult to stay motivated and want to keep publishing videos. Comments like yours really make a huge difference to me, so I want you to know how much I appreciate that!🤗 Cheers! XX Dara

OK, so the lobster tail texture was like a bicycle tyre... Front or rear?

@Poliss95 Год назад

I prefer the front tyre. It has a lighter texture. 😁

@MagentaOtterTravels Год назад

Whichever tire is worse!!! 😝

what on earth were you thinking being near the sea and eating that fake lobster rubbish lol,i love seafood but nope crabsticks and fake lobster no ,you been better off with kippers,cockles,mussels,winkles or whelks or crab legs or crab in shell,lol but least ya know now and you also like monk fish,views and area are beautiful makes me homesick to be back home in northeast,one day hopefully i be back to where my heart lays,great vid as usual .

@MagentaOtterTravels Год назад

Thanks much! I just finished editing my video for next Friday of Bamburgh Castle, and Ian says it is one of my best videos, so hopefully you will enjoy that one as well! I hope you do get to live back in the Northeast one day. We really love Northumberland! And I do enjoy REAL seafood in Northumberland. That "whole lobster tail" was just an adventure I had to try. But never again! 🤢

The question now is, can fake lobster tail be worst than hot dogs in a jar? 😉

@MagentaOtterTravels Год назад

Absolutely 100%! I would always choose hotdogs in a jar over that monstrosity!

@davidjenkins1003 Год назад

@@MagentaOtterTravels Your becoming British. You know how we say one thing and it means something else, like "We should meet for lunch sometime" We actually mean "I hope we don't bump into each other again. When you said "Absolutely 100%! I would always choose hotdogs in a jar over that monstrosity!" I think you actually meant "There's no way I am going to eat those hot dogs in jars."🤔

@MagentaOtterTravels Год назад

@@davidjenkins1003 oh yes, I do find that British have it very amusing. Just like if you sign an email "regards" that means you hate someone because you didn't say "warmest regards". I honestly would try hot dogs in a jar. If I had a good reason. But I would never ever eat those whole lobster tails again in any circumstance!

@MagentaOtterTravels Год назад

Well, I understand your point, Jean! I do think that rainshower heads need to also have a handheld shower head as well. I have long hair that is a faff to shampoo, and often the gentle trickle of a rainshower is not and efficient way to shampoo it!
