We visit SUNDERLAND and find that YOU HAVE to MAKE A WEEKEND OF IT | TOURIST VIDEO UK 🇬🇧
When Jane said we have to make a Football Tourist Guide to Sunderland you are going to love it. I have found so much to do. OI have planned a great itinerary so we are staying over to fit it all in. I have to admit my initial reaction was Sunderland? are you sure? But boy did I enjoy this one.
There was so much that I filmed I struggled to get it edited and up on RU-vid within a week or so and it got put on the back burner and then I was getting so down with Blackpool going down without a fight and Mick McCarthy football that I completely burned out with the Football Tourist Guides altogether and couldn't face making them anymore.
It was almost like a complete and utter 'writers block' and it is only now that I could face working on this. This is the FIRST of what I am thinking of as my "LOST FOOTBALL TOURIST GUIDES" from last season, there are some more to come so make sure you have the notification bell on to alert you to when I have posted up a new one.
I think that I have been able to start editing these again and have gotten my mojo back because the football has been slowly getting better this season and Blackpool are pushing for a playoff place so my mental state of mind can face the work involved in putting these together once more.
Hope you enjoy this and thanks to all of you that watch these you really mean a lot to us

Best pier in the world Roker, we also have car and bus rallies in the summer at Seaburn, and hopefully going to have our own 'Elstree studio' making blockbuster films. cannonball rock only place you can find it in Seaburn. had you came in the 1970's we were as big as Blackpool, Arnold out of the terminator films was actually at Seaburn fair at that time ! the tardis originated from Sunderland as well. the first timelord assistant actor was from Sunderland. you can go under the pier through a tunnel as well, biggest shipyard in the world 1950's, longest metal bridge at the time (Alexander) oldest mine in the world Wearmouth colliery.

@TheFootballTouristGuide 4 месяца назад

All great facts thank you. I have to say I wasn't expecting Sunderland to be as good as it was but ended up absolutely loving the couple of day there. Hopefully one day Blackpool will get back up and we can visit again just hope it doesn't take another 30 years like it did from 1976 -2006 🙏🏻

@psmith77271 4 месяца назад

Sunderland is alright, not as bad as people say it is. Yes the centre is lacking a little but i seen loads of regeneration going on when i was there. They have lots of landmarks , more than newcastle has, which i was suprised about as you only ever see newcastle bridge on tv from up there. Also sunderland has a top level seafront which i did not know they had, with bars and restaurants and it was very clean.

@TheFootballTouristGuide 4 месяца назад

Yes we were not expecting it to be as good as it was. It was a fabulous surprise and I agree with all that you mention thanks. Sunderland? who knew? 😁

Thanks for the sub and if you ever fancy making an away trip into a long weekend/mini break I see that you have Huddersfield, Birmingham, Southampton, Cardiff and West Brom all coming up over the next few months and we have filmed Football Tourist Guides for all of those so feel free to check them out 🙂👍🏼

@TheFootballTouristGuide 4 месяца назад

Thank you I'm really glad to hear that. We have had a lot of fun making these so far, we have made some great memories and hey if the football spoils it, as is quite often the case with Blackpool 🤣 it doesn't ruin the weekend quite so much. We hope that these come in handy for anyone who enjoys making a weekend of an away day like we do. There's a few more still in the pipeline and I'm hoping these are better understood by RU-vid than on my other channel 🤞🙏

Oh hi Paul 👋 I'm glad you found it I'm hoping this new channel helps the videos get more easily discovered as a lot of time and effort goes in to making these and I was getting increasingly frustrated that they were lost under all the match vlogs over there. It's a lovely part of the world Paul we have really enjoyed our trips to the North East 🙂👍🏻

@tomwilliams7391 4 месяца назад

I live in Plymouth, Sunderland is one of the most similar cities to Plymouth I've been to in Britain, even though they are some distance apart.... Sunderland even has the pebble dash estates clinging to hills! It has a very interesting waterfront as well though..

@TheFootballTouristGuide 4 месяца назад

We missed out on Plymouth as you guys went up and we sadly got relegated. It's one we will definitely do whenever we get to play you again 🙂👍🏻

Hi Louise, thank you very much really appreciate the comment, there will be lots more coming in the future, I have a few to finish from last season and Exeter from this, it all kind of ground to halt as the football was really getting me down last season. However, I am back on it again and we will be filming some new ones so definitely click the notification bell so you know when I post another one up In the mean time there are quite a lot of our trips here so feel free to watch any of them we have had a lot of fun making them so we hope you enjoy taking a look 🙂🍊

You either love or hate Blackpool...I love it, so many memories that link the NE, Ireland to b and b..I was first there in 1966 was a dog for a pet or Blackpool, next time when Dennis Sowell, not looked it up. P olicemans murder, then with my mates...Fanny magnet...then with my wife, then the usual following Sunderland...and fish and chip supper

@TheFootballTouristGuide 3 месяца назад

@@cesirwin1973 so many people came to Blackpool on holiday with their parents and have fond memories and people from the North whether it is East or West are generally more friendly and approachable than those from the South. Blackpool was built on entertainment but over the years the powers that be (the various councils) have appeared clueless to develop the tourism attractions and do the things to modernise new with the old. Losing the casino bid destroyed all the plans and it is only now that progress on new hotels and attractions is starting to happen. Still much to do to improve things but if you can't let your hair down and have a fun time here I'm not sure you would have one anywhere

@DaveyPalmer1 4 месяца назад

Really loved this look at my home city. We always drink in Vaux before the match so it was great to see where the magic happens in the brewery itself.

@TheFootballTouristGuide 4 месяца назад

Thanks Davey glad you enjoyed the video and I agree it was fascinating for me as well to have a little look behind the scenes of the brewery. It was very cool 😎 please let them know you saw the video next time you go in because I filmed this back in Oct 2022 and I was getting so down with vlogging Blackpool getting relegated I was very close to quitting altogether and I'm so sorry I didn't get this out for them so much quicker. I imagine it's that long ago that they have forgotten all about it but they were wonderful and I'm so pleased I've now finally managed to be able to complete this video for them and also for you all to see how wonderful we found Sunderland to be 🙂🧡

@robstafford8306 4 месяца назад

I walk my dog on Roker Beach (which you were looking over from the North Pier)most days and see them on a reasonably regular basis. Accepting they are wild animals and at best unpredictable, I find the best time to see them is during the summer months in the mornings. If you are lucky once they have fed they can put on ‘sea world’ type displays. Sure there must be some videos on RU-vid to give you a flavour of their behaviour/high jinks!
