Thanks so much, I am glad that you liked it 😁

It really is, although I like Sutherland best at the moment

Thanks Janice

Thank you 😁

Many thanks!

Thank you, I love playing this in the car while I’m driving home

@@johnrlhunter I can imagine, how lovely to have such a happy relationship John , I am very lucky and have the same.

We indeed lucky

Thank you, I am glad that you like it 😊

Good advice 😅

Glad you like it thanks for leaving a comment

Thank you Janice

I wish you were Karen , hopefully later in the year you may be strong enough for a break somewhere , thinking of you xxx

@@cookingwithsusie I will be going to Devon and wales later in the year, also to Yorkshire, but I doubt I will be going abroad again , shame as in my good days we have travelled a lot of the world and done some lovely cruises, so I cant complain, sadly a series of bad health issues has left me as I am , and chemo and radiotherapy took its toll, so really I must be grateful for what I have seen and done and the fact I am still here, the radiotherapy is maybe the reason for having my heart valve replaced. Last year. Be vest if I could get rid of my lymphoedema , I would be able to do so much more, if my legs were not swollen all the time, as it can be painful. Never mind there are a lot that would be happy to be where I am , so must be grateful and do the things I can. But nice hols in the sun etc still appeal hehe. You both stay safe and look after yourselves.

My sister had dreadful lymphoedema, it was very painful for her so I do understand. Let’s hope the UK gets a good summer . Sending hugs xx

@@cookingwithsusie did you or does your sister, be referred to a clinic , they used to have them , but my gps don’t really make any attempt to suggest one. There are machines you can buy to help remove the water in your legs , by I want to be sure I buy the right one , so a clinic could maybe help with some questions gps don’t seen to have the info. Times have changed. Xx hugs to you both as well. Hope you enjoyed the sun and still feel refreshed from it. If still there even better hehe

Thank you, I will

Thank you 😁

It is although, we drove it in a loop rather than to Applecross and back. Sutherland is now my favourite part of Scotland but then again Scotland is a very beautiful country

I am glad that you liked it, thank you

Hi Karen , John said to say thank you ❤️ just felt I should let you know I am okay , although the 1st of Jan I was going on night duty and had a bad fall ,though I had broke my arm and hand ! Turns out I fractured a knuckle and tore lots of ligaments. I strapped it up and went on night duty , I got it seen next morning . Last few weeks have been a bit bumpy but I am getting there now . Hope you are okay xxxx

@@cookingwithsusie please take things steady Susie, as we get older we are a bit slower at healing, if we do much damage , hehe, Lv to you both. Xxx

Love great song 👍

@@andrelamoureux6167 is this your latest song John or is there a newer one still.

After 30 years of marriage, you should know xxx

Thanks so much

The full song is in the normal locations but here is the full song without the video kzbin.info/aero/OLAK5uy_nIUrHHIhYOC7kpVdOZ3IjtFMYjomX6ZeU&si=mBFFUO1rNeY88GP7

Thanks Karen

Thank you Karen 😁

It was one of my first 😊

By car, it is a very very long drive. Susie scopes out the hotels, we tend to stop at hotel either in the borderlands or close to. Last time we stayed in a lovely restaurant with rooms near Moffet.

@@johnrlhunter yes I remember Susie showing us this in one of her videos. It looked so nice I agree. You both keep enjoying .x

It is, it is close to Skye and that road is on the North Coast 500.

@@johnrlhunter how beautiful. My hubby wants to go again to Scotland.but my experiences in Scotland have always been wet. So I think I may need to re consider my thoughts,re watching your trips it all looks so peaceful and beautiful. I love Devon that’s has always been my first choice when we talk about holidays. We have one of our sons who has a property there as well,so nice if they are there as we can have a nice time together we stay in a hotel as his two sons both men themselves go often as well. Our other son and his family love Devon as well. So I guess it’s a bit of a formality for us all really . We have gone there every year at some time in between foreign holidays for past 50 years. Maybe we need to spread our wings . Hehe . Thanks again for sharing.

Indeed, already looking forward to the end of the dark nights and mornings :)

@@johnrlhunter hehe me as well, I am not good at coping with winter at all. Get Christmas. Out the way and fingers x things will start brightening up a bit,let’s hopexx

I love Christmas, time off work and time with family, but January through to March, not so keen 😊

@@johnrlhunter yes it’s a bit of a dead time. We have both retired so here anyway. I guess dave and Mel will go down to Devon for Xmas . They asked us to go but for me days are so short I don’t think it’s worth it. But we will see our other son and g family who live nearby , I do not like Xmas really I lost both my parents at Xmas and they both loved it and made so much of it, it doesn’t seen right still them not being there, johns mum and dad are no with us either. So it’s not really the same but we have to keep things going for our family. We are the oldies these days hehe. I hope you enjoy your time off with the family and a nice break for you as well. Not to long to wait.x

Hi Karen, no my mam is not in this video. The photos include my dad’s two sisters and his second wife.

@@johnrlhunter sorry about that was lovely anyway. X

I am working on a new version as we are now 30 years married

@@johnrlhunter that’s lovely John , congrats, look forward to hearing it, or do you mean you need to change the wife for a new version 😂 20 years to catch us up.

Thank you that means a lot that I am being you some pleasure and Susie says hello 😁

@@johnrlhunter 💕

Hi Karen , just watching this for the first time myself ! I am fine back is getting better and I am being cautious! Such a busy time I am two girls down so it is all hands on deck . Hope you are doing okay xxx

@@cookingwithsusie great to hear that, Back ache is not nice at all. Being a sufferer I fully understand about that.. fingers x is eases altogether for you. Hope you enjoyed John singing as much as I did. I was listening to various songs for a good while before we went out. I think one reason I enjoy it is because the words have personal reasoning behind them , and you can put yourself in that place. With feeling. Will catch up on a few more tomorrow. Take care lovely hearing from you. Xx

Thank you, if only we all felt this way 👍

Thanks for the encouragement :)

@@johnrlhunter that is not a problem John if you had something good let it out and show others , folk will them be listening out for you, a one off may not have same effect. Xxx

Thank you 😊 It is a difficult subject as it is easy to upset people

@@johnrlhunter The only annoying thing is that there are still people who still don't understand the meaning of life! Waging war is not one of them !

We love it too, Sutherland is my favour area of Scotland

@@johnrlhunter yes, it is beautiful there! We once rented a holiday home in the Sutherlands on holiday. It was on a mountain, from there you could see the mountains and the North Sea! it was over the town of Golspie. One day we visited the Highland Games at Dunrobin Castel! We visited the castle on another day! From Golspie we explored the whole north !

Thanks Josephine. I love that area in Scotland. It’s a shame that the footage didn’t came out better It is such a beautiful place. My wife took additional footage on her camera. I think that I might redo this with her footage in. I took some drone footage also. The road out to Lochinver is lovely road with many amazing views.

@@johnrlhunter 👍👍, Aye, done them, know them all well. If you do a re-cut, include the stegosaurus-like Stac Pollaidh as you pass its flank.

@@josephinebennington7247 We unfortunately missed that, I checked it out on Google, it looks amazing. Cheers

Thanks Karen, I am glad that you liked it

@@johnrlhunter very much thank you

Thanks Cathy 😁I just got told off because I don’t keep a close eye on my channel. It is difficult when a certain person keeps me so busy 🤣

Thanks Karen, I thoroughly enjoyed their performance. The phone doesn’t do them justice. Watching them helped me be inspired enough to finish and release my latest song

@@johnrlhunter well done sometimes it’s such a thing we need, just just give us the nudge we need. I really like your voice however. So keep it up.

Thanks Karen, I am glad that you like it 😁
