Dear Lucy. I love your videos. Just a Yank here from Oregon, a State on the West Coast of the US. Like many here in the States I have some British blood in my mix and love watching various history programs from there. I just got a copy of Dorothy Hartley’s book ‘Food in England’. Such fun! Her work would inspire any ‘foodie’ to expound on English food. Thank you for your entertaining and enlightening videos!!

@throughlucyslens Is there parts with no audio or where you have silenced other people or or other sounds? Basically there was very long moments without you speaking and any audio or sounds.

Its like you take a breath and suddenly stop speaking and theres a slight sound of talking in the background and then you are whispering to someone as you go outside something about authenticity of item??

I think it's important for people to recognise some are living in similar hardships today. Unable to afford heating expenses, unable to access a fire place or wood. Unable to get important repairs for sanitation issues. Many are doing well. Not everyone is.

So many shared memories. I'm alone now, but I transport myself back to the joy of the late 60's and all of the 70's at Christmas...in my mind and heart. I knew it was something very special even then. Never to be recaptured, but loved with every atom in my mortal body. Thank you Mum and Dad...I can only hope that you are still around in some way that I cannot comprehend......oh how I miss them. xxxxxxxxx

I’m 48 and listening to you describe your childhood Xmas memories has brought loads flooding back of mine, and you’re so right about the tree going up too early thing, my sisters birthday is on the 9th of December and the family rule was the tree would go up on the weekend after that, anytime before would be considered common, that big glass jar of roses at Xmas really was special, they definitely smell different on first opening in glass than the modern plastic, that jar would somehow last all Xmas with just a hand full of toffee pennies left at the end that no one liked, thanks for a quality piece of work there, it was fantastic ❤

Oh gosh how you have taken mw back lucy, amazing! Like yourself i preferred boxing day and like your aunt, mine did a buffet enough to feed the 5000 😂 and she to had an electric carving knife, there was always a doggie bag at the end of the evening. I remember card games too and my grandad always let me have some of his beer, and what you was saying about the decorations going up, nan never put our up until Christmas eve!😮 And it was down on the fist of January. The rose's and quality street we had were the huge tins, not the silly excuse of ones we have now and i remember they were like £15 and when it came to presents , i only ever got one from each member of the family . Thanks for taking me back in time, it brought a tear to my eye of joy and loved ones that are no longer with us, but then memories can't be taken away thank you
