Kevin, so glad you were able to voice your opinion, full of common sense, regarding the COVID mess that enveloped all of us. I did learn by watching your videos that Britain wasn’t as tyrannical as I thought. That’s good news. My state in the US was one of the few that kept most things open. I do understand your concern about voicing your opinion too much because of the tyranny of the video platform. It’s been great to discover you. Keep on keepin’ on.

The thought occurs to me that you have been given a once in a generation (or two) opportunity to document this historic event and present it in your unique context. I'm glad that you are able to observe and comment on these present day struggles while continuing your authentic life journey. It's so easy to get caught up in frustrations and it can be a challenge to disengage from the drama and live in harmony with the situation. I'm reminded of this with every trip down the canals on Aslan. Thanks for welcoming me aboard. Bless you, Kevin, and happy holidays!

I had Sepsis twice earlier this year so I am living in what could have been the last year of my life and I am bloody annoyed too...this is not what I planned at all. But history shows that no system lasts forever and nor will this. Some cussed individual will set the ball rolling and change will develop, blessed are the cussed ones...we go about our business quietly, and we are powerful because ‘they’ don’t recognise us. So I look forward to accompanying you and Aslan again.....you have gotta keep going, for all of us who appreciate peace, freedom and calm water (with willow and assorted trees).

Also I noticed that the sizes of the containers you use seem to be smaller than I am used to seeing. Is that because of your reduced storage space or that is just the size that things are sold in? It doesn't pay to comment on anything political as someone with a different opinion will take great pleasure in slapping you down for what you express. Keep up the good work.

Let's be honest, we all know we need functioning hospital. The cruellest thing about this virus is that the more people catch it, the more hospital staff catch it, and so more staff have to stay off isolating. The end result, we now have people waiting for 19 hours in an ambulance to get into hospitals, which in turn means that the ambulance can not be used for anything else. It is a problem. Anyone saying we should just let the virus spread obviously doesn't expect to be in an ambulance anytime soon, but then again, who does?

It is easy to see that being a wanderer, you are frustrated by the restrictions. I did want to say, though, how much appreciate your diplomatic approach in expressing those frustrations as opposed to angrily ranting and lecturing.

Good to see you again. At first I though you were taking on the Seattle 1980s Grunge band look with the beard, the hat and plaid shirt. Looks good on ya'. Yes, this weird long strange trip we have been in with COVID........No need to apologize for the rant. We are all feeling it and have differing thoughts on it, one thing is true you cannot negotiate with COVID. Be safe out there and keep up your spirits! Cheers from Seattle and Happy Holidays!! :-)

I too share your observation on the minimization of the individual. Annoyed indeed. That said, pleasant navigation through all the restrictions - a much less bustling ("we are decidedly NOT on lockdown - tier 3 is not lockdown!") Lancaster awaits.

Yes, I as well applaud the apolitical commentary, as one said in the comments. Random note here, I want to point out the intro music and how wonderful it is! Love how all of this is you. Director, editor, composer, producer, production... a regular Stanely Kubrick. Love your music compositions! CHG needs to release an album.

Stop complying to this sa-tanic agenda. Honestly, anyone who still believes this inhumane, evil, worldwide tyranny and is about a rogue virus from China needs their head examined. Most world governments and mainstream media are part of this lie to maintain the AGENDA....Everyone please read.... Most mainstream media and politicians are controlled and are part of the agenda. Let's stand up, fight back, and get our normal lives back. We have no choice. This is NOT about a virus (that we know is hogwash). This is about a totalitarian AGENDA. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnSQdqVoo96VkLs kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3Saq6SvmZmgq6c Why do people still believe this c-virus nonsense? They have been lead into a covid19-believing cult that has achieved it's goal through relentless, 24 hour scare-tactic news of a completely unfounded and unproven virus. An "alleged new" virus that nobody would even know about if they did not "hear about it on TV". This is NOT how humans are supposed to live. Just use basic logic and common sense. This is a well-orchestrated implausible virus scare (with a cleverly designed, fancy/scary name) that is part of a worldwide pharmaceutical industry, Bill Gates (the biggest funder and controller of the WHO and CDC), other highly powerful/sinister-minded individuals, and media agenda to scare the entire world into believing the only solution is mandatory vaccinations. All the while, every ounce of a normal, healthy, free/free-moving democratic lifestyle is cruelly taken away from us all step-by-step. All under the disguise of protecting us from a non-existent virus. ....No medical or science degree is needed to know this. All that is needed is common sense, logic, critical thinking skills, and a little desire to seek truths and facts
