We're back! Finally! Should be back to weekly content from this point on! And we're kicking things off with our first ever cruise! We're down in Southampton prepping our final 24 hours before we board the ship. We're excited and very very afraid (we've both suffered from sea sickness in the past!). It'll be fine...

Hi Kevin, I don't know if you remember me but I was the young lady who asked for a picture with you in October, thank you for making my first MCM really memorable

[@BrickBargains]

How did you not visit the Lego store!? It's just down from the food hall 😩 lol

[@Arcane2080x]

Quick route in to West Quay… through John Lewis from the entrance on the roundabout.

[@Matt_-um4ce]

Great video. Have fun on the cruise guys 🥰

[@supersiggs16]

So great to see another video!

[@j.w2000]

Hope you guys have fun!

[@jameswg13]

As someone thats worked for a cruise line before and gone on quite a few as passenger they are amazing holidays to go on. Hope you all have an amazing time.

[@danieliles2635]

Love this vids Kev keep going!

[@pstevens74]

The hotel opposite you is the Ibis Budget. I’ve stayed there before a cruise and it wasn’t good. Room was overlooking the McDonald’s drive-in which you heard people beeping their horns all night. Didn’t even get a kettle to make a cup of tea. Always use Premier Inn next to West Quay shopping centre now. More expensive but you know what you get with Premier Inn. Enjoy your cruise.

[@aasofjg1511]

Hope there are bunch of vlogs of this trip!!!

[@RoseSolane]

I will be in Amsterdam on Thursday and I will wave from the office when you float by to the cruise terminal 😀

[@CJM527]

Please make the cruise videos very long! ❤

[@gubbins1622]

You made Anna walk you beast 😂, actually hoping it's a sign things are getting better health wise for her 👍

[@WolfBetter]

last time I heard she had a surgery scheduled for her back, but it was months ago...

[@EML_Shadow]

stayed in that hotel was brilliant!!

[@SannnPlays]

Have fun here in the netherlands Kevin and Anna 😊!!

[@mattropolis76]

Hope you have an amazing time, pick up some Canada Dry Ginger Ale to drink to help with seasickness, and travel bands on the wrists help. Plus you can get little seasickness tablets on the ship if it gets choppy out there 🎉😊

[@Fahy90]

When you went into the toilet first I thought that was it for a minute, not even a sink! I was thinking if this is the executive upgrade... There must be a bucket supplied for a standard room 😂

[@jameswg13]

Just noticed you are on Ventura by the looks of it on marine traffic. Do have a great time. P&O are a decent cruise line and affordable

[@avonleanz]

Not sure how it works in the UK but Novotel is the best of the three options around that car-park if it were in Aus. Ibis and Ibis Styles are the budget Accor hotel brands. Novotel is much better and the rooms are much bigger. I'd suggest you got a great deal on the room!

[@Galaxy-mi9do]

Yes! First video back!!!! And I’m first ❤❤❤❤ love the videos man keep it up

[@DWs-mp3cb]

Ginger biscuits and ginger tea at the ready and ask your doctor for anti sickness tablets aweek before your cruise in future so if you go and do get seasick you can take a tablet to help relief the feeling/symptoms and have rehydration sachets at the ready too just incase to mix in your water to rebalance your electrolytes during sickness episodes so you don’t dehydrate

[@jc8451]

Watching with interest as I am keen to try a cruise too at some point. And yes it’s definitely an age thing! 😂

[@anmichele3829]

Why is Ikea on the no no list? Feels like there might be a story here

[@Arcane2080x]

So close to my work lol

[@soakedonsplash9141]

If this trip goes well you should definitely look into Disney cruises! They are expensive (especially the ones that leave from the UK), but well worth it and I'm sure you would both really enjoy it!

[@MoreKevinChapman]

They seem very expensive. We’ve got our eyes on a northern lights one this time next year

[@chrisfisher5865]

Hope you enjoy it, but surely you paid an extra night in the kennels for Dave.

[@BricksNGaming]

what did ikea do

[@AdmiringCurling-ki3bb]

How is Andy getting on

[@tibblesworth7522]

This is the first (and only) time in my life I'll ever ask a grown man this, but where is the blue Ellesse hoody from?! It's glorious

[@MoreKevinChapman]

I think I got it from Jacamo a year or so back.

[@tibblesworth7522]

@@MoreKevinChapman You're a hero, and a handsome one at that

[@DANFUN32]

Somebody's most probably told you about this but all them hotels are owned by the same company called accor

[@Theshortchallenge]

Hey Kev, love that first opening line 😂 I would like to see you go to IKEA just saying

[@MoreKevinChapman]

I promised myself I never would. For no particular reason other than I never have

[@Theshortchallenge]

@@MoreKevinChapman I think first time videos would be fun to watch lol

[@andrews0208]

@kevinchapman 8:37 the Ibis are not nicer then nova trust me you got Ibis Budget the Ibis there then Niva they go up n standard in that order also with Niva being best of the 3

[@MoreKevinChapman]

It was the cheapest of the 3!

[@Coaster_Crazy]

Where’s the cruise lol !? Should have titled the video “Staying In Southampton Before Our First EVER Cruise”

[@MoreKevinChapman]

That sounds really clickable! Was the thumbnail not a giveaway? And the title saying we’re going on our first cruise? And the first 10 minutes that were about the cruise?

[@Coaster_Crazy]

@@MoreKevinChapman only have a laugh dude !! Looking forward to “the cruise” video as it’s actually one of the short cruises I’ve been looking at doing

[@WolfBetter]

Cruise... hugh. I don't enjoy them at all. I've been to three, they kinda suck for me.

[@jc8451]

Why did it take you 3 attempts to realise you don’t like them? Stop going! 😂
