Ye - ha Friday evening, a glass of pinot, and strolling round fabulous Notting Hill with Hannah - What could be better x

[@valeriekelly315]

Hi Hannah, I don't have the telegram app on my phone, so tried messaging you on FB x

[@HannahRicketts]

Oh I don't use Facebook! I always read everything here x

[@valeriekelly315]

[@pomskylifenova7344]

Fantastic

[@helenalexander2567]

Thank you Hannah for suffering the crowds at Notting Hill much appreciated. Oh it’s a couple of years since I was at Borough Market love the place. Have a great weekend see you next week xxxx

[@Milkedsplooge]

So excited to "hang out" with Hannah in sunny London😊😊😊

[@susprime7018]

Nice to see the people out and about.

[@ronaldpoppe3774]

We had a great time shopping there. I got my picture in front of George Orwell's home. We enjoy your videos Thaks for taking us along. Cheers Ron

[@naelissimmer4152]

Wow! So very different from your last vlog here, love the vitality! The crowds would do me in, but it’s lovely that London is so alive again. I could definitely not live there, even though those row houses and mews houses are gorgeous! When I’ve seen videos of those shops and stalls I assumed they were low quality goods, so really appreciated your info on them. I like the more quirky things, like the cushion covers, and would be more inclined to get one of those as a memento. It would be something I’d use daily as an accent piece and a great souvenir. You could use one of those cushion covers, surrounded by less flamboyant ones, in your decor. Nothing wrong with a piece that gives you a grin. Thank you for sharing this, Hannah, really enjoyed it!

[@carloschbn]

Beautiful vlog Hannah, and what a lovely day! So many cool stores and beautiful buidings. It is nice to see how people really enjoy shopping there even having the streets around so busy! I really liked the excellent job you did for this vlog! Have a wonderful day and weekend Hannah!

[@kpgunther]

Even though the market was a bit chaotic, it was so good to see London back to her old self! Thank you so much for taking us around with you, it was refreshing! Lots of love!

[@stephanieldailey9539]

Thank you for the wonderful vlog Hannah! Thank you for suffering the crowds and for taking us with you. I absolutely love the architecture. Have a good one.

[@magnoliaparadise7537]

Amazing to see London alive again! So much fun things they sell... And so much things you can't find anywhere else 🤣😵‍💫😁 Thank you for yet one more wonderful vlog Hannah 👍🏻💕

[@questionmark9819]

this was lovely to watch & see how things have changed, I lived in the area between 1996-2014 & it really did change. I just wanted to recommend that if anyone is planning on visiting NH that the best days are Friday, Saturday & Sunday plus different days vary with what you can buy etc., the market stalls change & if you really want to see everything I would do an AirB&B for the whole weekend. leave early & go to each different section per day, don't do the entire market & area & food all in one day because the choice is vast. Portobello market does give Camden vibes in the sense that they also have different parts. Another thing about the food is that there is a huge amount of choice so 3 days is perfect as you can maybe go with a couple of friends, buy pretty much from each stall & you can get to try a little bit of everything, just remember that if the food is popular it sells out by 4-5pm so early arrival is necessary. it's not just savoury foods but there are some lovely foods you can cook at home, the Spanish shop also has a café so you could try something different. the food was always varied & I loved living there & miss not having a market a few minutes walk away anymore 😢 enjoy and check out other things in the area like the brand museum, next to Ladbroke Grove Station & there's a nice bakery & chippy there too. definitely worth a weekend, so much to explore oh and I nearly forgot, the electric cinema, nice non typical cinema that has sofas ❤ have fun

[@maidacrazy21ryan93]

Love portobello market you did such a good job juggling your way through the crowd such a lovely day London is so beautiful in the sun you look fabulous certainly don’t need to diet stay safe stay beautiful ❤️

[@TheMonkeyrock77]

I love watching you because you point your camera at things, not the ground. My Mothers mother's family was from England, so I like seeing what your country looks like. Plus, I love looking at U.

[@snukme]

So interesting to see the change between your earlier walkthrough of Portobello Rd to this vlog, it's so good to see that London and in some ways the world is re-opening to people again. Filming through glass, all you just need is a polarising filter that you stick on the end of your lens, rotate 90 degrees and you can see through glass/reflections. It's also good for glare and seeing into water etc. no biggie though. Thanks for getting through all the crowds and all that, appreciate your work Hannah!

[@straycat1403]

Thank you Hannah for risking your life filming this video 😄 Great job! Loved seeing all the houses, market and food choices.

[@ellenlepore3083]

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Great video Hannah. Those colorful buildings are so pretty. Thank you for taking us along It sure was crazy busy . Have a great weekend 🥰

[@arthuranderson7741]

Nice vlog..amazing to think that those mews house where built for the horses and servants... if they only knew that in 100 years time they would be worth millions

[@willrayyyd8924]

Hannah, what a difference a year and a bit makes ! Going with "the vibe".. it's really nice to see Notting Hill and Portobello Road so vibrant and lively now. Thank you, as per usual, for an interesting and enjoyable vlog and for navigating cheerfully through the crowd. Looking forward to your vlogs of Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament at Westminster, the South Bank and Borough Market. How about an extra special vlog for your upcoming birthday 😉 ?

[@emmajane2099]

Hi Hannah, a great vlog as usual. So busy, I would love to visit there if I ever come back to the UK. I would definitely buy the Frida Kahlo cat cushion cover. Love it. TC 💖💖

[@ShannonQT85]

I was there back in March when I was visiting London but went on a weekday. They had a few food stands and just a couple stalls so it was a lot easier to walk around and take photos. Beautiful homes there and loved all the colors. I bought some of those pretty mugs from the gentleman at Alice's as a little souvenir and reminder of my time exploring there and I love them.

[@sunflower51]

I look forward to fridays to watch your vlog. Just got back from London, miss it already

[@EDunne-dc9le]

I missed so much Notting Hill where i’ve lived for several years. Hoping we’ll live there for good🤞🤔🌺

[@ericbecker710]

Wow! My head is spinning😳What a whirlwind vlog from HANNAH our favorite vlogger. Please be careful when you are wandering about! I can't wait to see your Platinum Jubilee vlog.

[@sonaterese799]

I miss walking through the UK markets, so thank you Hannah for taking us with you

[@michw3755]

Yes, you'd have to be a people person to live there, they can thank Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts I guess 😂 thanks for the great vlog of sunny London 🌞😎👍

[@christinefrega8508]

Thank you for showing this. The amount of people there is giving me anxiety. 😐

[@shush7930]

Hahaha I work there and it’s totally normal 😆

[@loriedgerly7229]

Great video, Lovely homes. I want to visit the U.K. so bad!! Maybe some day

[@dougedwardsyachts]

Love my London in the Sun. Thank you Hannah for sharing those gorgeous pastel shaded ever so slightly unaffordable Georgian terraced houses. And the beige platters too, wowsers!

[@AnitaAnneLloyd]

Hallo Hannah! Wonderful vlog! Thank you. I am there visiting Portobello Market in Notting Hill Road in July. CAN’t WAIT!

[@potterkelly487]

Thank you Hannah, now I am excited after watching your vlog! I have booked a air BnB in Notting Hill, October for 5 nights.

[@fiona3821]

Thanks Hannah I am looking forward to moving back home.. I like the fashion vendors under the canopy. I have gotten many of cool stuff over the years. There used to be an food court area its by Falafel King 274 portobello rd 🤴 and that place has fresh amazing Falafels there was aways a Que . They do have the fruit and veg in the week day.. and other stuff in the week day. I am happy it's busy as it helps support the local business again.. We need that in market life that is part of our British history. You covered more tourist areas and not were the locals go.. so different vibes ✨️ I love you for taking the the time to walk through Thank you 😊 🙏🏽 💛

[@laurenl5843]

Well that was interesting! . I haven’t been here on my trips to London. So thank you so much for showing yet another area of London I simply must explore. 😊👍💜🇨🇦

[@catherinesteele598]

Beautiful vlog Hannah,such a busy place.I did the tour in 2000 loved it.Thanks so much Hannah🥰

[@youchwb6005]

Thank you once more Hannah for another lovely presentation. Looks like you had your hair made up, it looks better than last week.

[@markbrown5703]

Terrific vlog Hannah, as we get to see Notting Hill in its glory, as well as the unbelievable non stop Potobello Road market activity! Thx for navigating all the traffic & crowds, so that we are able to see the "up close & personal" views of everything! Have a safe & happy Memorial Day weekend Hannah!!!

[@egonrhoodie2745]

What a beautiful area of London! Colorful with a taste of the 60s vibe! Blessings and happy thoughts! 😇🙏

[@patriciabermingham2039]

I love your videos, great job! A little taste of home.... don't forget to squeeze The Warrington in some day, please 🙂

[@priscilladiefenderfer9239]

Hello love... I haven't checked in in a while but I've been watching! The Cotswold video... OMG, my dream home is there somewhere. And your dress was gorgeous. You looked amazing 🌺 Liberty's.... Good Lord. I have a list of WANTs now, thank you very much. And this video, yeah... There goes every paycheck I will ever make. I have a question.. what do the zigzag lines on the road mean? We don't have those over here. Thank you, dear girl, for taking this walk for us. I don't know that I could handle those crowds. I am short of patience. To be in London, though..... You lucky thing. Be safe... See you next Friday!! 🫖☀️🌺❤️🌺☀️🫖

[@tinkpotty]

Loved it ! Thanks Darlin'

[@janeoxley4829]

Love your vlogs on Friday Hannah, really great and something to look forward to, much appreciated thank you.

[@camillepowell5937]

I love the “glare” on the shop windows. It feels like I am really there. Lovely music choices as usual. Thank you Hannah!

[@francescacrivello1600]

Cara Hannah, sto' guardando questo filmato. Ma quanto mi piace andare per i mercatini. E immenso!!! Un caro saluto. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@hanmade]

Beautiful! Weirdly I haven’t been round that area so need to sort that out!😊☀️ thanks Hannah!!

[@deeperson478]

As usual Hannah another great vlog. I'm always ready for you on Friday. I get in my comfy chair with my lemonade and take a stroll with you. Thanks again!

[@Elfman126]

Hi Hannah, great to see Portobello Road Market once more and I immediately start thinking of The Portobello Road song from Bedknobs and Broomsticks, one of my favourite Disney films.

[@tinland771]

I love you Hannah… you’re so zany in the crowds, you’re making everybody laugh. I’ve been to Portobello when it was crazy busy, and I have to commend you on not shoving somebody out of the way. Keep up the good work, your vlogs are gold!

[@sandrahossman2089]

Portobello Road Market brings backs such fun memories, loved my day spent there. I bought an antique sterling silver olive spoon and a Guinness bag. Plus some Gin.

[@cindyandkurt]

Loved this! Notting Hill looks amazing!! And a belated Happy Birthday. Hope it was a good one!!!!!

[@karenglaicar5486]

Another Wow, what a great place. Adding this to my list. Thanks and take care.

[@bea_guasch1]

I'm binge watching your videos, love them all!

[@emidyl24]

amazing video Hannah. So great to see how "alive" everything is. Can't wait to get back and explore more.

[@60margie]

Lovely vlog Hannah, thank you

[@paulfranks37]

I almost missed my usual Friday evening Hannah vlog (but then that's what happens when you're over the pond in New Orleans and you pop back into your room to get out of the heat....sorry guys it's 30+ degrees here currently.....too hot for pale old me). As always, wonderful vlog Hannah, you must put so much work into these and I sure appreciate how much time these must take, so a big thanks from me. Stay safe, be well x

[@johnthompson932]

Love it lived in Notting hill - Kensington Park road number 1 cost me 25 quid for a bed sit! Happy days!

[@gailsokol7832]

OMG I wanted to buy everything, and try all of the great food! Thanks for the vlog, Hannah!

Lovely work @Hannahlricketts and looking beautiful and compelling as ever 👌😍👏

[@lyndabond1443]

Thank you Hannah! There is no way I would have gone to Notting Hill right now. Bravo 👏. The houses are gorgeous, but I wouldn’t want to live where people are looking at my home lol 😂. As always, throughly enjoyed the visit. Well done 👍 💕

[@hannahj6668]

Hannah you did so well to film among those crowds! I'd have given in and got the doughnut as a treat 😅🍩 hope you enjoy the jubilee and bank hols next week.🇬🇧🌞

[@1986garage]

I love your channel. So great content.❤❤ And movie Notting Hill is one of my fave

[@maryannwright6572]

Really love the sunnies on you! It’s like we took a walk, got our steps in, and browsed along the way! Fun, Hannah!

[@rhondalockrey9592]

Its must be hard to get use to all the people back after the lockdowns you got to the the city so quiet before. Lovely to see the place will have research what is opened during the week but be less crowded.

[@rebeccarendle3706]

Lovely vlog Hannah.. But wow! What a contrast to your lockdown vlog😊

[@aliciaglauser2184]

Oooooh I love Portobello market! Missing London!

[@annajauch7709]

ANOTHER AMAZING VLOG . XX

[@christinebarnes3493]

Such colours on the houses - I didn’t know! Didn’t it all look especially lovely in the glorious sunshine? Love the new shades btw Hannah - suit you just right. See you next week 🙋🏼‍♀️x

[@gloriaurban4389]

Thank you for this fascinating stroll in Notting Hill. Since I've been watching your vlogs during Covid, I've spent more time with you than with my own daughters, who are about your age. I love your running commentary and how you are always careful to include lots of views of food everywhere you wander. Such a treat to see! I fantasize about just renting a tiny apartment in London for a month and using your posts as my tour guide. Maybe soon!

[@HannahRicketts]

Glad you like them!

[@jimbeam3280]

Great Vlog Hannah. Agree regarding the Portobello Gin, gorgeous stuff. I don't think you are being negative about living in the locale of where you were. I lived for some years in a riverside property which was in a local beauty spot. There was a right of way on the far bank , the domain of dog walkers and sometimes picnicers. I did not think it would be a problem . I was wrong, never underestimate people's ability to be nosy. People standing and staring into our back garden was commonplace, and even at times people with binoculars. It could be quite unsettling, It was one of the key reasons we moved. I've learnt that some places , whilst great to visit, are not that good to live in, for various reasons. P/S, The car you commented on early in the vlog, was an Aston Martin. Very nice!

[@magdastar2249]

A great vlog, thank you. So enjoyable and nice to see people out and about. ❤️👍

[@maggiemay1823]

Hello! Great vlog! Gsus, crazy busy! But absolutely great to see all that life and soul back to this part of London! Wonderful vibes! Thanks for the tips. Another excellent job done. In the process, loads of fun in the sun...not bad at all...😁 All the best!🤗

[@suzanneryan5395]

From someone across the pond in America I love your vlogs! I need to visit London again,

[@mslatif3378]

Hi Hannah- loved the vlog 💕 You always deliver interesting & fun vlogs . Nice to see everyone out & about !

[@debrawhite751]

Loved this. For some reason, I never was that interested in Notting Hill before (loved the movie, though). But it looks really amazing and not what I expected. I would give anything to go to some of the shops! That is one thing I missed out on when being in the UK - I went to a lot of museum and country house gift shops, but not shops like these. When you mentioned Holland Park, my ears perked up. I know about Holland Park from the Judi Dench and Geoffrey Palmer show, As Time Goes By. If I ever get to go back to London, I am going to make sure that I see the house when Jean and Lionel lived in Holland Park! I will have to look up your older video, maybe I'll see it.

[@yesimgecer7771]

You are so nice and natural, thank you so much…❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Jubilee-Livy]

Very crowded but beautiful 🤩 Thanks Hannah have a wonderful weekend..

[@jconeill2024]

This vlog brought back so many memories from a 2017 trip I did. Love your vlogs Hannah xx

[@BeachBumsk8]

It is so packed out there, not sure how I feel about that. Reminds me of NYC
