I found their dressing up, in cheap Amazon type costumes a bit disrespectful. Whitby at Halloween is huge in the goth community, like the peak event in the year. They spend a lot of time and effort in what they wear. Not put on some cheap tacky outfit. Janine's maybe wasn't so bad but Liam in that awful wig? All they showed us was a few pubs and busy streets, what was it that made it "best Halloween"? That they got pissed again?!
They've finished the van upgrades now haven't they? Can't wait to hear when they are back off to Europe!

Yes what was that wierd montage about? Camera already in cupboard as Janine opened it to get her toothbrush. Thrilling.

They have a rare skill to make things look quite bleak and depressing. Oktoberfest looked awful, Gothfest ditto. Not their fault it was raining and gloomy at both I suppose. I just imagine their van cold and damp with wet shoes and clothing all around.

I agree, for all their boasting their 'vanlife' isn't appealing at all. I just feel embarrassed for them at this point. Yeah they skimmed past all the things they'd done earlier in the week but added that whole weird tooth brushing montage in.
 
Why do commenters on their vlogs go on about what a great cook Liam is? He makes curries and jacket potatoes as far as I can tell. A lot of partially pre prepped stuff. Not exactly ground breaking. Notice the paid promotion knive wasn't being used this week.
They had those bloody jus rol cinnamon buns again, is that the only thing Janine can produce food wise?!

What is their goal going forward anyway? I have a feeling Europe just won't be mentioned again but even concerning the UK - will they just aimlessly drive around from now on? They've done the England - Wales loop and dragged it out as long as they could, so the NC 500 would be the next logical goal but I don't see that happening for two reasons:
1) Janine is not made for temperatures below 15°C
2) they can't get through a single week without having to interrupt their "travels" for a detour to their parents/ a garage / somewhere to pick up a parcel / free food that is a 3 hour drive away.
Which would obviously be a lot harder to do from the North of Scotland.

They’ve already done it in their old van and they complained about the roads whole way round….

I think they did the NC500 already in their old van and seemed to actually enjoy it

That thumbnail and title is revolting considering everything they mention is their own fault and not Europe's and none of these are reason to advice viewers to not travel there.

1. You need emission stickers
2. You may need winter tyres
3. Roaming is capped
4. You need van insurance
5. You need breakdown insurance
6. Only 90 days in Schengen zone
7. You need travel documents and cash

8. You need a Euro car kit

Could not agree with you more - if you decide to drive in another country then it’s common sense to ensure you meet the legal requirements. Why would you not keep a pack of documents like all other van lifers do when they go abroad. A sceptical person would say they deliberately did this so they could have an excuse to come running back home saying how awful it is. Europe is incredible and after living in Germany for years I would completely recommend it - but you must stick to the rules, the German police are hot and will not tolerate these two clowns who do not think rules apply to them.

So today's video was just random tips, the previous one was a one day vlog of Whitby from the day before, no video last Wednesday either. Basically they've hardly shared anything over the last couple of weeks so I wonder whats going on behind the scenes?

I wouldn’t be surprised if they haven’t received a letter from LTT’s lawyers

Just what we were screaming at the tv watching this. How do all the other Youtubers manage?
Where is the video of all the upgrades and Liam learning how to service the van !!!!

Hopefully, Neil put his foot down and asked them not to film, so their comment section doesn't slag off his work and damage his reputation when they inevitably blame him for future problems.
