I've had lots of problems with different cameras freezing up. But it wasn't cameras fault it was cheapo memory cards not fast enough. Speed wise. Also with some memory cards actually drawing too much current giving the batteries a shorter run time. Eg sports action camera run time 1 hour 30 minutes. Reduced to 50minutes on some cards. Although speed rating of cards 10. Not had any problems with Samsung Cards.👍🤠

Haven’t really covered all the places you guys went cause we only get two weeks off in July and have to make the most of it.we always end up in Achill or Connemara and the weather in July is usually crap. From the north we can get to Donegal & back or Wicklow & back on weekend trips. I have never seen the Ring of Kerry without 🌧. By the way the bin collection in the south are paid to private companies so there are none are left at lay-by for fear of tipping to save money. Some of the larger supermarket s provide bins for campers, other than that we have to carry rubbish home .

Wexford is my favourite place on earth, i have family there and have been back there every year for the last 30 years. Ireland and its people are beautiful they are so friendly. you're right about the weather but you don't go to Ireland for the weather, you'd be mighty disappointed if you did. i've been fishing to the hook so many times, did you notice all the fossils in the rocks? millions of them all tiny little shells. i love the story of loftus hall, they do open days around halloween which i'm definitely going to when i move over which should be in the next year or two...i've already bought a house there. i really hope you come back for another trip around the enchanting emerald isle.

I've enjoyed watching you video trip around Ireland as I know a lot of the places that you visited. In answer to your question at 1'40" the square aerials are to receive MMDS microwave television transmissions. It was launched in 1989 to combat the illegal TV deflector relays that has sprung up around the Republic at the time and allowed for 11 channels to be broadcast direct into people's homes without them having to install a satellite dish. Here's a link to the launch of the service that I recorded from RTE back in 1989 ... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cCFBSjuiyUY.html

It has been a great journey following along with you. Can't wait for you to get back to explore the Dingle, Kerry and Beara Peninsulas. I spent a week on the Beara back in 2015 and it was amazing. Not many people go there but please make sure you put it onto your list. Thanks again for the great journey thus far. Del from Australia.

I have so enjoyed your videos. We toured Ireland last year (we’re from Nebraska USA) and you showed some of the sites we saw on our trip. The drone shots really helped to get a better shot of places that weren’t open because of Covid.

Thank you Tom for watching, glad you enjoyed the series. Space is very tight in such a small van so we probably wouldn’t go for an instant pot. We also try not to use the inverter as we don’t want to drain the battery too much while we are wild camping. We are hoping to be back on the road again soon in the UK 😀

what were your favorite places in Ireland?
@LifeistooshortCK
@LifeistooshortCK 4 года назад
There are so many great places to choose from. In Northern Ireland we loved the coastal causeway and our walk to The Giant’s Causeway. In ROI the coastline in Donegal was so dramatic and the drive around Achill Island has some beautiful scenery as did Connemara National Park and of course the Cliffs of Moher. We also loved the pretty villages, loughs and historic castles and tombs.
