Motorhome news, Scottish tourist tax, marquis fire, dodgy dealers, etc.

I watch a lot of YouTube every day (stuck indoors) and most of it is much better than mainstream TV, but sometimes you get to a channel and the topic and content is really good, interesting and informative but you give up fairly quickly because of the person doing it.

There is one lad who just does 4x4 stuff off-road and garage jobs, he used to be on his dad's channel as was really good, but on his own channel, but instead of having a script or just knowing what he was going to say there would be so many cuts it was impossible to watch with the sound on, this was about a year ago, he's not too bad now but it was hard work for a while.

There's another lad been doing it for two years now has 50k subscribers, and it's a good channel but his vids often don't get into double digits.

I have a good way to get ear wax out but I can't post it, but it includes a hammer and table, and works well :D :D

I follow a simple rule for YouTube if it has a pathetic click bait title or thumbnail like the one above it’s usually not worth watching.

I try not to have any set rules about anything.
And ignoring anything with click bait on YouTube means don’t bother to look at the vast amount of material on there.
And although the guy is irritating, he does highlight things worth knowing about our pastime.
 
A tourist tax wouldn't stop me from going to Scotland.

It would certainly stop me from using Scottish camp sites and Hotels though on principle.

Tourist tax is charged in many parts of the world.
In Florida now you don’t only pay the tax on your hotel bill, if you do one of the airboat tours in the in the Everglades, or simply drive there, you pay a $30 tourist tax. Quite frankly I think they are extracting urine, plain and simple. Come to Scotland, help our economy, and we will tax you for the privilege. But England will follow suit, there’s already talk of being charged to enter London, and the Lake District, and the Welsh government are looking into it.

Extracting the urine is a good description, this is where telling your MP what you think can make a difference if enough do it.
