2023 Highlights & Unseen Footage Part One [Mature Content]

[@billgreen8966]

James and Helen, you two are brilliant, a real breath of fresh air to KZbin. My wife and I are from Chesterfield in Derbyshire, we got married in 1972 and emigrated to New Zealand in 1974, where we had our two children and then moved to West Oz in 1990, where we still live. We were back in the UK in Sept/Oct this year and via the good side of social media we caught up with old school friends and work mates, many of whom we have not seen since the early 70s. The point is that we gelled with all of our old friends like we were back in the 70s, and you guys are equally real to us through your videos. The same sense of humour and the same banter, the same sarcasm and sense of irony. All of which we miss living in Oz, mind you its about the only thing we miss from the UK. So a big thank you and please keep it up. Best regards

[@bythecurb]

Thank you, we are hoping to come to Australia sometime as we have friends there. 🙂

[@JustAGirlAndHerKitchen]

Helen makes the channel with her banter, we LOVE when she joins the show! 🥰

[@bythecurb]

Yeah, she's not bad!! 😂

[@leeyoung9469]

I absolutely love your accents and sense of humour. Merry Christmas guys xxxx

[@SophieWilliams-yg2jh]

I just want to say from the bottom of my heart. You two are absolutely brilliant: I don’t miss a video since day dot ! And I most of the time watch your videos more than once ❤ . Thank you James for been such a respectful honest lovely man you are . And also well done to you also for the confidence you’ve gradually gained through this first year 😮. Iv seen how you have grown to the proper KZbin confidence now especially from how much anxiety you had at the start . Video in public ect. Well anyway well done love You and absolutely lovely Helen have brought me some really good entertainment😊merry Christmas to you both ! And thank you ☺️ we all also appreciate you . Take care. Kind regards Sophie 😉

[@ChrisSheader]

Couldn't agree more with this sentiment... I wondered what to write in support... but this says exactly what I wanted to say...

[@bythecurb]

Thank you so much, that is such a lovely thing to say, I really appreciate it. Happy Christmas 😍

[@andycarter42]

A merry Christmas to you both, keep up the good work 👍🍻🥂🍷🥃

[@LoftechUK]

That was a good reminder of the past. So funny.

[@ianbrook3936]

Happy Christmas to both of you too. Looking at you two in the front of the van is like the before and after of a miracle hair-grow advert. Thanks for a year of great viewing!

[@bythecurb]

Haha, thank you. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

[@colinu9209]

Cockles are definitely an outdoor food , is ovarian flu like avian flu ? There’s nothing better than waving at complete strangers from a moving vehicle and having them wave back ! Camping smells like armpits , it’s a fact .Bet Helen is embarrassed asking Oasis what their band name was ! Happy new year to both , keep up the good work ! 👍

[@sheilagarrido8204]

Like BLOOPERS Guys?? Love this 😅😅😅😅😅 SPECIAL ❤❤ I can hear that rain too. BEAUTIFUL 😊🌧⛈️🤣

[@KC-rf7dv]

Absolutely brilliant! What a great couple you are. I couldn't stop laughing when you said your zip had broken. I knew Helen would find some safety pins as most supermarkets sell them. You are both comedy gold. 😂❤

[@paulturton9755]

Watching you guys rather than the Kings Speech - much more enjoyable. Have a great Christmas, I'm already looking forward to your videos in 2024 👍

"Duck" seems to be used more in parts of Staffordshire, particularly around Stoke-on-Trent, Rugeley and Armitage, Derbyshire and parts of Nottinghamshire. Happy Christmas! Looking forward to next year's Vlogs. 😊

You two are like two peas in a Pod, great banter. May I suggest you both pay a visit to Northern Ireland in your van. You would really enjoy the pubs in Belfast and the Fish and Chips or pretty good too. You must try a Northern Irish fry up breakfast
