    You need to get T-shirts made "Hope theres a coffee shop" is Leigh's favourite saying. This will be a more relaxing part of the holiday when you were driving through that rain heading to Dallas was so glad when you managed to get a hotel

    Smashing vlog. Southfork brought back memories. I thought the Poisoned Dwarf had been left out but she popped up with her own bedroom (no idea why Lucy was called that in our household). I remember them sitting round the pool and gales of wind blowing their hair everywhere - except Bobby’s. I had never seen Dealey Plaza from those angles especially from the tower. I was 7 years old and to this day remember where I was (Granny’s home in Glasgow) when the news of the assassination came on the TV.

    Well this was a bast from the past. Dallas was huge back in the 80's here in Australia it was on either Tuesday or Wednesday night and it was a big deal. I would have 3 couples over for fondue and Dallas every week. We were all young newly married couples. Thanks for the memories. I was 4 when President Kennedy was assassinated but I definitely remember it. Very sad. Enjoy the rest of your trip. 💜

    I never was big on the primetime soap operas, of which “Dallas“ was one of the most popular. But I do remember the whole “Who shot JR?” business. Lots of TV shows use location exteriors and then shoot almost all the interiors on a sound stage, sometimes in a totally different part of the country. Even though I’ve been to Dallas a couple of times, I was never able to do anything really touristy because there just wasn’t time. But the last time, which was over 20 years ago, I did get to go to a Texas Rangers game in Arlington, which is basically in between Dallas and Fort Worth.

I thought you were very respectful when you visited the site of the Kennedy Assassination, must have felt very strange to be standing at the place where it occurred. How high was that tower, surprised you didnt get vertigo. Oh and that Scotch Egg looked amazing

    When I visited the place where carter was shot I went into the museum it’s very interesting. I nearly got run over having my photo taken on the cross 😂😂 there were people doing free sort of information tours showing the grassy noll and the bullet holes. It’s was such an interesting day. I was disappointed when I went to the Alamo it wasn’t what I expected.

    I never watched the Dallas series. I was enlisted in the Air Force back then and really didn't have time to watch tv, But I definitely heard about it all the time, and about the murder scene. Not sure if JR stayed killed or not. I joined the AF and got stationed at Cocoa Beach, Fla. The guy who played JR had been in the I Dream of Jeannie tv series, set in Cocoa Beach. So I was excited about that. Never found a house that belonged to them, but in my AF unit, we spent a lot of time out at the space center.
