Loving your European trip adventures so far, Pink Floyd live in Pompeii was my first thought when I seen the Ampitheater, its a great dvd. I was only 1 years old at the time mind 😀

Pompeii looks very interesting. How clever of George knowing about the paintings on the walls.

You should have got a guide. They are so full of information. You will never get the the history without the guides. Highly recommend getting a guide just outside the gate. They take a small group bargin with them. Well worth it. English speaking of course. Well worth it

You took me back 53 years, with that tour of Pompeii, I remember some of the streets you walked down and some of the bath and houses, I seem to remember it was very hot then too. I don’t think Pink Floyd were in existence back then Steve, hence I didn’t visit the amphitheater, loved the little site at the end. Safe travels.

Pompei quite dear to my heart. My Dad was camped just below it in WW2 and was there when it erupted in the 40s. He told me that he woke up in his camp in the next valley to find everything covered in white ash. He walked up to the lava flow and pushed an |Italian coin into it as the lava cooled. I have it on my mantle piece at home. When we went to Pompei we did an English speaking tour which was worth every Euro. We saw their equivalent of McDonalds (mass cooking for the masses) and the " House of ill repute" which was really interesting and funny at the same time. As always LOVE your vids. Enjoy the rest of Italy and looking forward to Albania a country that I know very little about. ENJOY

Pompeii is the source of a lot of our knowledge of the Romans. The ash descended fast enough to kill and preserve a lot. If you had been unfortunate enough to study Latin at school you'd know this.

We are loving your tour as much as we are also loving 'The Rollings Rucks' tour. Sadly we didn't get a chance to speak to you at the Peterborough Show. Why ?? Because we were chatting with the 'Rucks' !!! And when we turned around, you were so busy chatting to others that we didn't like to interrupt. One to the Rucks on that occasion. Next time we'll make it one all. Thanks for your beer mats from the bar though to add to our collection. Loving the videos, Best Wishes, Dave and Sophie xx

@@RoamingRadfords actually after I posted, I thought about it. Your a/c would have been running 12volt, so the batteries would have been flattened. The M+ wouldn’t have helped because you had no battery power anyway. The a/c should/would have detected mains and thus run accordingly sipping the extra power at 24volt through the inverter. Anyway I’m sure it won’t happen again. Happy hols

Enough with the hints Steve. “I grounded out here, caught the tow bar there”. You couldn’t be any clearer. You don’t want air suspension you NEED air suspension. Lyndsay needs to loosen the purse strings and give it the go ahead before you do some serious damage. 👊
