A great outlook, Tom! All channels have to start somewhere and it probably can take a while to build up the subscribers but as I write, you are at 845! Won't be long until you are monetised and you could then consider channel membership too. I agree that the health benefits far outweigh the money side though. And your channel brings joy to all of us that love the island😊. Keep going Tom and Paddy G !!

Hi Tom, For one horrible moment I thought this video was to say you were not going to carry on!! I'm delighted that is not the case. These videos are the best on Jersey I've seen and I've enjoyed many new walks because of them. I am back over for 2 weeks 7th September and have another 3 spectacular new walks to add to my old favourites due to your videos. I do my best to get subscribers for you and I'm sure you will reach and surpass 1000 very soon. Keep up the good work and give Paddy a hug for me😂

Correction Tom 845 subscribers at this moment in time. I’m sure you’ll reach that magic number soon Tom. You know my story that I lived on the beautiful Island of Jersey for 24 years and watching the channel brings back so many memories and I find it very therapeutic. You had me going for a moment as I thought you were going to say this is the end of future videos. Keep going Tom for as long as you are enjoying making the videos with lovely Paddy. Cheers for all the hard work.

Hi tom ,it's beyond all logic to see a utuber who is covered in tattoos with a baseball cap on back to front,repairs luxury writen off cars , who laughs like a hyena whilst repairing them and has no qualifications to do so , now lives a footballers lifestyle? Because of his subscribers. Some people can fall into do do and come out smelling of roses, it's a hard fact of life, i know what we all have commented will not pay your bills ,but you are nearly there to the magic thousand subscribers. Keep your good work going as you and paddy has brought great joy to us all ,remember that winning line is in sight , keep going tom

You sound a bit down whilst talking about this subject , don't worry about it. I started a channel a while ago focusing on craft skills. Trouble is that most of my time is spent working with my grand children, do I really want to expose their efforts to KZbin trolls. The answer is no, I do not want to live my life in the public eye or expose my family to un-necesary
