    Hi guys! Great video, very informative as others have said. Amazingly I never knew what the Falkirk wheel was until your video! Did you park overnight there in the end? Carol has noted down Culross as a future place to visit for us👍. Great Top Tip re Scottish National Trust, thank you. Keep up the great video's, looking forward to the next installment. Colin & Carol 👩‍🦲👩‍🦳🐕🚐👍🙂

    Good morning ! Thank-you very much 💖🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Culross is amazing, we only parked up at the wheel for a few hours, but it’s £15 to park overnight , water and access to services , you get a key to access the toilet drop .. , no ehu , but flat and very scenic 🙂👌❤️

    Portpatrick is a lovely place to visit. It's about an hour from Stranraer. Another little gem is Footdee, also known as Fittie, a tiny old fashioned fishing village which is a 20 minute walk from Aberdeen harbour. I've yet to visit Footdee but I've seen other videos from people who have and it's a real little gem.

    Wow , fabulous vlog young Redders's and although we did the Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel we didn't do the other place which we now intend to . Just some useless information . The Falkirk wheel was built by Butterley Engineering in Ripley , Derbyshire , not far from where we used to live and used to cycle past in my youth many years ago . You've also reminded me to renew my Scottish National Trust which we've been members of for 8 years . Yes , good call , it's a lot cheaper . Take care and love from the Old Redders's xx.

    Seen the Falkirk Wheel two years ago and was really impressed, so we're off to Belgium at the end of June to see the boat lift at Strepy-Thieu. Quick question, do you use the toll roads when your in Europe? If you do, do you use a Tag?

    Sorry to say, but you DID get the pronunciation of Culross wrong. COO-ross, with the emphasis on the first syllable; also the 2nd syllable is pronounced like the boy's name, not with an 'i' sound - though sometimes it may sound like this when spoken by a Fifer!
