Absolutely amazing videos sharing dear friend ❤️ Really enjoyed watching Super big big like thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍 See you again take care Keep intouch ❤️ ❤❤❤
We enjoyed the budget tour of York, Nick and Jill. 48 pounds to go to church? Looked lovely, but I'll pass on the Cathedral. That would leave me more to spend on the gin! Lovely museum gardens. Lots of history and loved the wall walk, squeaky gate and all! The train museum would be a fun tour and is priced right. Fun day and we loved coming along.
Wow! Awesome! Various kinds of antique buildings are showing off their different beauty! It was very nice to be able to feel the breath of a long history! I'm grateful to the people who have preserved these precious cultural heritages well! Thanks to you all, I had a great trip to York! Hello! Greetings again from 100tour KOREA! Stay in touch, my dear friend! See you again! Have a great day!
Hi Nick and Jill, watching, a lot of steps up the tower, gosh 2 prisons, more steps. Love the Christmas shop, The Shambles have some lovely shops, The City walls are great too, nice views of the Minster. A nice look around the Railway museum, nice twirl Jill. A lovely walk around York thank you for sharing x Julie and Tony x
Hi Jill & Nick! It just goes to show you don't need to spend a lot of money to have a good time. You've come up with some great ideas. I loved that many were FREE! Woo hoo! Lots of steps...but it's worth the climb for that view. I loved the museum gardens and the historic sites. Great to revisit the trains from your childhood trip, Nick. Nice 👍😊Well researched and fun presentation. Thanks for the brilliant suggestions ❤❤
Thank you so much Julie and Lucy. Yes there is still, if you look hard enough, days to be had for free, in expensive UK places for free. We are about ready to rebrand. It will all be about great adventures for free or on a very tight budget. Thank you for your amazing continued support.
Hello from Naples, Florida. Very nice tour around York! Medieval charm, for sure. Thanks for sharing the amazing views with us, have a great weekend 👍 💯 ❤
It’s incredible how much history you can explore in York without breaking the bank. The video really shows that you don’t need to spend a fortune to have a memorable day which is so important these days! The views from Clifford’s Tower are beautiful. Thanks for doing all the hard work to capture the essence of York’s beauty.😄😄 Some pretty clever stores! Not sure a ghost is worth 3 hours wait 😬👻 Picnics are very underrated. For the young and young at heart, trains are always awesome. You’ve done a fantastic job of highlighting York’s best spots on a budget. It’s great to see how much you can enjoy the city without spending a fortune.
York is a fabulous city! A definite must see if you pop across the pond! Thank guys! It’s definitely important in this day and age to still have fun without breaking the bank! 👍❤️
Amazing Tower with awesome views. Loving the narrow streets love the Cathedral 48 pounds, very steep! Thats almost $100.00 The gardens would be lovely to explore. Love the ruins of the Abbey. Loving the old architecture of York. Great City Walls and great you can walk along them. How great is that a Railway Museum and its free! Great tour of York, thank you for taking us along Nicholas and Jill. Hope you have a great weekend.
Brilliant Nick you and Jill have definitely highlighted the dos and don’ts of York ( the minster being one ) The walls would be very cool to walk shame they were partly closed ! Always great to join you guys have a fab weekend 🤠👍 Simon
thank you Simon. even locals said to us on the way in, “oh there is nothing you can do in York on a budget”. how wrong they were. whilst a lot might flock to Bettys, the Ivy and the Minster there is so much culture and sightseeing to do without spending a penny.
York beautiful buildings and river good budget ideas . Cool looking tower lots of stairs awesome city views. Cute old Chappel. Interesting name the shambles shopping streets many shops and things too see . Cool Mueseum and Gardens nice it was free entry 😎 Good picnic spot 👌 The city walls were worth a visit once found some bits open . Good views of York minister 👌 You even got a gate of the week in . Cool train Mueseum & railway bridge. There were so many places you visited. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us Generation Xplorers Generation Xperiences 👍
@@GENerationXplorers oh you so do, good luck on that one. By the last day I think I managed to get 2 families doing the trail. 🤔 the dads didn’t look to happy 😂
Yes Nick and Jill, covering such a beautiful city, I always enjoy watching your wanders around York, there is so much to do there and on a budget?! Surely not! Where would we be without you guys!!! Loving seeing Cliffords tower, totally need to go there but those bloody stairs will be the death of me! hehe, worth it absolutely for those views. Gorgeous! Enjoyed the history Nick hehe :D oo a toffee shop? sold!! Wow!! York Minister is very pricy :( such a shame really, BUT the shops and the shambles truly do make up for it, so much to eat, explore and enjoy and those little ghosties! so cute! Oh yes, I remember the train museum from your video, it truly does look like a great day out and for free, well.. that is amazing! Thank you both, always so fun and exciting and you show off York so well!! xx
Hi there Alessa, another fabulous comment! Unfortunately all these things are free but the price you pay for visiting York and doing these are you will do a lot of stairs but there is plenty to distract you doing them! You guys would love York! Glad we can showcase it for you! Have a great week ahead 👍❤️
another great collection of fun to be had! i have freckles and i like gin, placse just for me! 😁 especially loved the picnic and blanket. hope the rest of the hollibobs was awesome and your reintroduction to reg life is going as well as it can! it's never fun returning from vacation. and congrats on 3k, my lovely friends! 🛴❤
Thank you!! 😊 Aww Anne you are lovely! Vacation feels like a lifetime ago now just been sat reminiscing what we were doing this time last week! You and Mr Scoot would love York especially Scooting round it! Have a great week ahead 👍❤️
Such a charming historical town. I enjoyed walking with you. Pretty long walk around the beautiful city walls with amazing views. Railway museum is fascinating ❤️👍
Hi Nick and Jill York is truly amazing. We loved your tour . I wouldn't like the height of Clifford's tower but what a view would have to have sent Dave up to get the shot. The Shambles is definitely a highlight. We can't understand why some cathedrals charge so much to go around. Perhaps they need a card like eh or nt so you pay once and can go in them all. At least it played you a tune at the end. We loved the irises in the museum gardens 😍 it's good to showcase places that are free to visit like the railway museum. Bet that section of the wall has been closed all year so far with all the rain we have been having. A big 👍 hope your holiday is going well. Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤️
hi guys thanks for another great comment! we had a great holiday seems like a distant memory after being back at work three days but had a lovely birthday weekend for Nick! Hope you have had a gooden 👍❤️
Such a enjoyable tour, you nailed it here! Small streets are just brilliant, what a place for exploring but filming as well! Aerial shots fits really nicely here! 👏👏
I was born into the bandana band 🤣🤣 cheers guys! let us know or ask us questions re your England trip would love to meet you awesome pair! Have a super weekend, much love ❤️
You cannot argue with the Railway museum but I can remember a time when you could walk around the Minster for free and I can remember us as a family being very disappointed with Clifford's Tower. Unsure what we were all expecting but it seemed just a view point and an expensive one at that. Haha that que for the Ghost merchant never seems to decrease and 3 hours it too long to wait for us OAPS and funny enough, I always wondered where the Drapers lived :o). Shame about some of the Wall was closed but we always have a walk on the wall every time we visit York. Only been once so fat this year, which is unusual for us but with all the trains drivers being on strike and so many cancelations, we have just saved our money - so much for saving the highstreets🤔, cheers ALan
Ah I remember the Minster being free, they would charge a nominal price to go up to the roof. I can remember in the late 70s when they started to charge for the roof and my mum was furious. I would love to do the Carol service at the Minster one year but you have to book almost a year in advance. 3.5 hours to queue for a custom ghost, that shop has done something right! The longer the queues the more people seem determined to get one, genius. As much as Labour being back in will be a nightmare for the country they will hopefully sort the train strikes out and maybe even, dare I even say it, renationalise them and make fares reasonable again? Is that too much to ask? Both those things are on the Labour manifesto. Albeit it will be the only good thing to come out of them ruling for five years!
Hi Paul lovely to hear from you, Birmingham is on our list to visit down the line so recommendations always welcomed! Lively to hear you have fond memories of York and staying at a Youth Hostel! Have a great weekend 👍
That’s amazing and very lovely place Jill and Nick 👋. I can’t wait to visit this places and thank you 🙏🏻 for sharing some budget place 👍. Have a great day 👍🙏🏻❤️🇩🇪.
Hi Nick and Jill Love York ❤️ We've never been inside Clifford Tower. Looks a great view from the top. The Shambles are great to walk round, so many independent and unusual shops. York Minster is expensive York Museum Gardens looked nice and great that it's free to enter. Loved the blanket, perfect place for a picnic, needed more singing though Jill 😊 What a shame part of the walls were closed, but after seeing that sign we couldn't walk on them with Boo anyway. Great views of the Minster from the walls A good gate of the week and it was squeaky 😊 The National Railway museum is a fab place to visit and it's still free which is great 😊 Great twirling over the Railway bridge Another great video guys with lots of information 😊 Hope you are both well and had a fabulous weekend
Hi guys we did think of you when we saw the no dog sign on the walls but we reckon if you were carrying her you would be fine! some of the walk ways are so narrow with drops at one side that we can understand walking a big dog on a lead would cause problems! but carrying her she’s part of you! Do you have a doggy back pack she can ride in that would work too! Thanks for another great comment! Have a great week ahead 👍❤️
That is a stunning view. I love it, even when you're on a budget, you can still "visit" Diagon Alley. The railway museum looks cool, would be a fun place to visit.
A great and useful video Nick and Gill. I remember one of the first times we went to York many years ago with our daughter and her friend and we spent a blooming fortune. 20 quid here 20 quid there, it felt like every attraction had a cost. But then I am a big fan of the Castle Museum, so would happily pay to go in there again. We also love the museum gardens and a cuppa overlooking the river.
York - Always loved it - Apart the utter shock the 1st time you encounter the massive Viking plop in the Jorvik 😱.. Clifford’s tower is a great way to end a walk of the city walls.. its chequered history though is very thought provoking ..…The Shambles is anything but .. such a lovely street .. £48 for the Minster??? 😮.. wow - divination suddenly got expensive 😮..Gardens look lovely and free too… Even the ad break in this vid was enjoyable… 😂..Gonna do York wall walk video soon to add to our video series … It’s a thing we do other than cruises believe it or not..This video makes us want to bring forward our next trip to York .. loved your previous video on the railway museum .. such brilliant memories of visiting as a kid ..Thanks for sharing your fun 🤩 via RU-vid
Hello Lord & Lady Cruise 🙋🏻♀️ thank you for another fabulous comment and even enjoying our ad breaks 🤣 intrigued to know what advert you enjoyed! Look forward to your York wall walk video! What you do other stuff than Cruises? say it is not so 🤣 Lord & Lady have land legs? lol have a great weekend my lovelies ❤️
@@GENerationXplorers - That made us laugh .. Thank you … Your ads were for Get Your Guide and wait for it …. Princess Cruises 😂…. We have lots of Walk Videos on our channel .. We like to Thru Hike and follow walking trails .. Example Walk The Ridgeway - The Easy Way ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HuSq8L45cj4.html We also have a specific playlist dedicated to waking medieval city walls ..

As always a great guiding of the place Nick and Jill. Many beautiful places. I have been in York once. Went to the Viking Museum there plus had a little walk too. Have a wonderful weekend both 🦇🖤🖤🖤🖤🦇
I would need a bench every 2 ft to get up them stairs haha. Very quant town a lot to see! Those railroad cars were in great shape. Gate of the week👌Awesome tour!
Nice one Nick and Jill 👍 had some good times in York and the railway museum is great , I think theres one day a year you can go into the minster for free to 👍
York does look very inviting! The gardens are lovely and “squirrel”! Beautiful cathedral…did you say you have to pay to see inside? I would like it here…many historical places to see and cool trains to see. Great tour Nick & Jill. Thank you! 👍😊🇨🇦
Hi Christine! Sadly yes the Minster in York is very overpriced, not sure if it is politically motivated but the indenta kit Cathedral can be seen 15 miles down the road for free.
Hi Nick and Jill Apologies for my belated comment ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Penny Crasher??? 13:09 K7S like a penny crasher and keep the adventure with it. OMG, you are able not to just visit, but also experience walking up on the stone stairs to the tower..ohhh, Women's Prison??? That gave me chills.. Although it is quite views to enjoy the city. There are so many small shops to explore. For my curiosity, if those destinations are close each other? ? haha shops are amazing and your presentation is entertaining.. hahahmuseum. Wow, the real retired trains are in the museum. Call Thomas hahaha.Could you get to the inside of the trains? York offers so much for all ages.Well done Nick and Jill. Happy Weekend
super great ....been there ones with school long time ago ....thanks for the video ....i did see thanks that i remind but it was like 27 years back in time ....memory damage been done his work ....have a great weekend my friends
Great stuff Nick and Jill. I have to say the Museum Gardens looked fantastic with the ruins of the Abbey in them. I can remember being in Clifford's Tower as a kid, I'm sure there was a cell where they said they held notorious highwayman Dick Turpin before he was hanged (in York - also free entertainment back in the day). The Minster is a bit pricey to get in, I'm sure Durham Cathedral is also free (donations are welcomed though).
Hi Andy back on the day we are sure the minster was free you may have had to pay a small charge to go into the roof…… scandalous! we dined to venture more north! Thanks for your great comment hope you are having a great weekend 👍❤️
Hi guys hope you have recovered from your holiday. love the look of york and loved the drone shot in the b roll at beginning. Its great see in you find these budget days out in these iconic places. And we all appreciate the hard work you put in to your videos
Ah thank you Simon, it was certainly one of those holidays you need a holiday to recover from! Well at least I’ve got several videos to edit from it and enjoy. Definitely a nice alternative to some of the more depressing boarded up content. Got some great new series lined up for this year. A “we ♥️” series that should see a lot of drone footage get put to good use and of course, the dreaded return of Boarded Up, Series 2, which starts in August. This time it will be faster, tighter, feature interviews with locals and be well and truly shocking..
it really is, I mean I love the place and have very fond memories. one of my bucket list to do things is to go there for the Carol Service in early December but you have to book a good year in advance..
Oh guys this was awesome. I've only been to York once- on one of those Ferry there and back specials. So would like a longer stay. We had tea at Betsy's Tearooms. Think that's what it was called. I checked out the site for the blanket too- in case I need a special gift one of these days. All those sights you visited are things I'd love to see. The stairs climb was a great training session for your Italian adventure 🤣! I hope you are feeling fine this morning Nick 🎶🕺🏿🎂after your birthday bash. Have an awesome year friend. 👍🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Aaaww thanks Anita a great birthday weekend was had and a bonus no sore heads! Betty’s tearoom is very nice and popular I personally like the macaroons! The stairs were good practise for our Spanish holiday (Italy too when we return 😉🤭) Love you awesome lady! Have a nice week ❤️
I loved York when we visited a couple of summers ago. Its a great atmosphere just to have a wander amongst those individual shops and no visit would be complete without a stroll down the Shambles, window shopping of course haha. We attended a concert in the cathedral so got in for "free" though it was being recorded for BBC radio so no coughing, sneezing or getting up to go to the loo allowed🤭. The gardens are beautiful & the walls, well they are a must. You had me worried thinking there wouldn't be a gate to qualify for the gate of the week, but we were saved !! Oh brilliant, why not take a bit of the Lake District with you 😃 I've never seen one of those before ... no need to buy all those maps, just take a blanket🤣😂
Hi Christine yeah the blanket maps are cool right! ooo I bet a concert in the Minster was cool! York is really lovely city, we do like it! Have a lovely week ❤️
LOL...I'm not even sure if I have a budget anymore after the last grocery haul...even Otis' grub has increased by almost $15 a bag! lol Now there's an area that is filled with some pretty amazing history! What a great idea for a map...one can plot out their route while sitting and enjoying a picnic. Now that railway museum is something else!! Awesome!! Very much enjoyed your wander around town!!
Great intro showcasing many of York's sights! Nice view from Clifford's Tower! Those parliament something or other swines! The Shambles and the Minster are super touristy aren't they. Good tip on Beverly Minster! Perfect picnic spot, did you pack a Yorkie choccy bar by any chance? I thought they charged for the walls for some reason. Closed anyway for no reason 😂 ah the good old Railway Museum! Or should i say the museum of the railway 😅 top vid guys!
thanks so Matt. ironically parking a mile and a half outside the city centre (for free obvs) we actually ran into a couple that recognised us that lived there. we told them (locals) what we were about to film and they said oh there’s nothing you can do in York on a budget.. hopefully they will eat their words when they see this. whilst the hordes flock to the Ivy, Bettys and the Minster, there is so much more to York to see and enjoy.
Love York! We have never been in Clifford’s Tower inside so may need to check it out! How much to look round the Minster???!! The railway museum is epic and free! ❤ We did the ghost tour once it was brilliant - you should give it a go! Fab as ever guys ❤❤❤ Rachel & David
Yes Clifford’s Tower… Check it out 🤣👍 hi guys thanks so much yeah the ghost tours are cool we did one once via horse and cart no that queue is for a ornament ghost you pick and personalise a bizarre way to spend three hours queuing for 🤣 hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine! catch you soon ❤️
Hey both. Ah, we really do need to go to York. Never heard of Clifford’s Tower. We’d get in free too being CADW members for over a year. A few too many stairs there 😂. Parliament something or other…nice one Nick 😂😂. We really want to go to the Shambles and York Minster. It’s very expensive though. Cat Gallery and Socktipus, brilliant haha. 3 hours to buy a ghost. Ah, a Christmas shop….yes, we do know who’d like that 😂😂🎄⛄️🎅❤️. The monastery looks really cool. Gotta love a Lake District blanket, excellent stuff! Ooh, we love a secret garden, looks lovely for weddings. Boo to closed wall gates. Just as well there’s plenty of benches. The railway museum is definitely on the list. Love the old trains. The Mallard is just beautiful. It’s amazing it’s free. We really enjoyed that both. Hope you’ve had the best holiday x
York Minster is ridiculously priced. Not justifiable. Id say, fudge it, film going in through the doorway, then film inside Beverley Minster, 15 miles down the road, FREE, same design, same architect and save the best part of fifty quid. Got to love a Xmas Shop, the Shambles are lovely. There is so much to do for free in York. We could make three of these videos without spending a penny. We went back the week later to take Cara round the Railway Museum, im no train enthusiast but there is a days worth of enjoyment to be had in there for anyone. The holiday was amazing guys. So much room, would have loved you to join us. We are really depressed being back, Spain was really on our cards for retirement or escape with the brexit vote or as a pension plan, everything is so cheap there, but post brexit you need a place there (easy enough) AND £2700 a month from non income or £250,000 in your bank each to live in Spain now for more than six months of the year. We have the assets and the ability but it only comes with income, it seems, this week, after research, our plans are quashed. Bad times.
You certainly can do and see a lot in York on a budget! The gardens and trains are my favorite. I would enjoy seeing Harry Potter shops, too! 😊 The last time you were there, the railways were on strike 🤔 I know it's probably from the same day 😅 I was just fooling with ya!
Lovely, you guys really showed the charm of York! P.S. I remember seeing part of the wall closed when I visited because of the wind. I hope it hasn’t remained closed all these years 😅
Fantastic video guys. We wish we had more time in our visit. WTF entrance fees are just ridiculous. Gloucester Cathedral is free to visit. Rip off the tourists who spend the money. We enjoyed our walk around the walls although we did get lost. 😂 love the pace of the video and great info throughout. 👏🏻👏🏻 find memories of visiting the Railway museum with Dad along time ago. ❤. Briliant place. Great twirl Jill. Excellent form and poise. 😂 no real trains Nick. The poor drivers can’t live in £60k a year. Must be awful. ⚓️. Really enjoyed watching. Hope you are having a great holibobs. Be good and we will catch up soon. 👍🏻🚶🏻♂️🚶♀️❤️❤️
Ha ha, perfect Watto 🙏 can’t live on 60K? That’s not in line with inflation? It literally is the worst industries taking the mickey. I got so upset with the UK this last week whilst in Spain that I was well set on getting the hell out and dodge. We have enough set aside and invested (not much but enough you would think) to make that a reality. After a few growly days being back working Im the UK, leaving it was a TOP PRIORITY. Sadly we can’t. Post Brexit, you have to not only have a permanent residence in Spain but 250K each in the bank account to live there. Well I can easily afford a place in Spain and we both have botched up full British NI state pensions but that doesnt come close. I’m devastated today.
I would love to visit York and see the awesome trains 🚂 but mostly I would love to meet Nick n Jill 😊 that would be my first choice and possibly free too 😂 but if I had to pay 💰 I’d not have a problem at all ❤
Donna Donna Donna! How super lovely are you! 😘😘 we would love to meet you and we wouldn’t charge you a penny! you are always welcome here in 🇬🇧 with us! Love ya dearly 😘😘
Clifford Tower looks amazing! Did York Minster not used to be free entry? Oooh, I'd not be giving those guys my money. They got plenty already! Queue up three hours to get a what? Ghost or goat? 😂 The gardens are lovely ❤ like the frames idea. Watch those squirrels, they'll pinch your nuts! Those walls are impressive, even if some are closed off. Nice bit of history. Don't think I've been to the railway museum. Another one to put on my list. I mean, I got to check out The Rocket. Only right seeing I lived in Wylam as a kid. And was that a sneaky drone flight? 😮 😃👍
Hi Jaune, yes good spot it was a sneaky drone shot! The minster did use to be free the robbing so and so’s 🤣 lol re squirrels 🐿️ hope you and Mrs Jaune are having a nice weekend 👍❤️
Never really explored York but it does remind me a lot of Chester with the wall. What's that all about being shut for being slippy. Health and safety gone mad. I'm a bit of a cheap skate so not sure I'd be paying to get up the tower but that English heritage comes in handy. I think I'd just admire York Minster from outside for free too. I might stick my hand in my pocket for the transport museum tho or join you for that picnic. Any room for a hermit on that Lake District map 🙂👍
Hi Paul it turns out that section of the wall was closed to some work being done on a railway bridge! Always room for you on our picnic blanket and you don’t need to put your hand in your pocket for the transport museum it’s free! Ever you fancy a day in York let us know we would be happy to meet up! have a great week 👍❤️
Hi guys - really enjoyed the video - just came across the channel - love the content. Went to Cliffords tower last week, have an english heritage members pass so took advantage of the free entry. Thanks for sharing - subscribed 🙂
good evening nick and jill. have a wonderful weekend, mates. i look forward to seeing your videos every week. did jill get the pictures i sent her of my holiday in maine?
Very nice budget tour of York and I particularly liked the shop that had you in stitches 🤣 The walk around the walls was really beautiful. Would have liked to have seen inside York Ministers but as your on a budget I’ll pop over to Alan METALMAN’s channel to see that (he’s not a cheapskate). Believe we’ve recently seen a tour of the Railway Museum but as it’s free, yes include it again. Outstanding Gate Of The Week. Well done Nick & Jill you’ve lifted my period of depression slightly, thank you. ❤️
I’m pleased about that Mike. Yes we are cheapskates! That price for York Minster and the roof is more than a nights stay somewhere. I’m always very practical about things like that! Two days somewhere else thanks to a nights stay away or a trip around a Minster that is identical to the one in Beverley that’s free!? Yes this visit to York was a bit of a whistle stop tour (is that the right term?), we ran from A to B to C without taking very much in. When the opportunity presented itself to visit York again the week later we spent almost the entire day in the Railway Museum! We did mix a lot of the footage up from both visits on the railway museum video. Jill not being the on screen professional we are sadly wore different clothes. On the Railway Museum video it looks like she does a quick change act about thirty times. I will have words with her about that one! Lots of hiking videos to come from our trip to the Picos De Europa (on a budget of course!) sending all our love ♥️
That was brilliant. Wasn’t impressed with £48 to get in the cathedral 😳. York odd such a fabulous city and yet sadly I’ve never been there 😢. The city walls remind me very much of Chester which has a similar set up. Incredible to see part of the old Roman walls still there. All in all I loved it as usual 👍❤️
Thank you Phil 🙏 growing up on the West coastline Chester was always a great day trip for us and having met Jill we made it an annual holiday for many of our courting years. Yes, think you are spot on with that Chester and York are very similar and both hold a very close place in our hearts. The price of some attractions baffles and annoys me in equal measure, im about done with the UK and was all set to move, with enough capital at hand to make it a reality, but sadly post brexit, you need £2700 a month (not from income) to be allowed anywhere else in the EU. Sad times.
@@GENerationXplorers wow that would have been a big move Nick. Back in the mid 90’s I went to Spain for 6 months. I spent most of my time painting villas and get general exploring. Took my child back a couple of years ago to where I’d lived (Javea). The UK has changed so much I totally understand why ones think of upping sticks. I’m go had you stayed though as I would be seeing all your lovely video of the north 😁👍❤️
Thank you Phil. It’s been a real kick in the teeth for me the last couple of days finding out that. At the brexit vote as much as I’m for brexit neither of us voted. We had plans either way, we would get Brexit and be happy our company grew from strength to strength in an emerging economy or we would leave and set up a business in Northern Spain and never look back. Well the deal was pants and we revisited the place we planned to if we had remained. Everything was cheap as chips and we can afford to live out our lives there in luxury. Are we allowed? Nope. Brexit means the red tape means you can live there three months out of six. Want to do better you have to prove £2700 a month each (NOT from income) or both have 250k each for a chance to stay there longer. At this point, all hope is lost Phil
@@GENerationXplorers that’s a real shame. What’s sadly typical in this world is ‘money talks’. If you’re loaded there’s no issue. That must have been awful when you’d put so much into the planning 😢
Cheers Andy, appreciate that 💥 so much to do in York that literally doesn’t cost a penny and yet it has this perception of being quite an expensive place. Doesn’t have to be…
