I just wanted to say, I also adopted an older dog and you guys are such lovely dog parents. I love how you guys take the time to know Bonnie. So nice to watch ❤

[@alexisbk9576]

Happy Gotcha Day, Bonnie! 🐾🐶🥳🎉 Benji did great rescuing Bonnie! Very cute and funny :)

[@debbiexx9806]

Benji looks great, really healthy! So pleased his recovery is going well.

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you Debbie! xx

[@harrietb9648]

Wow Bonnie is so good for 12! She’s like a puppy! 🥺🥺

[@lilycollins3159]

I absolutely love a home vlog! There’s something about them that just feel like you’re on a FaceTime call with one of your besties! ♥️ Benji looks rather dapper in his formal night outfit! Can’t believe you guys have had Bonnie for 3 years! still remember your video introducing us to her 🥹 Benji falling in the river for his dog is a real life treasure haha 😂 bless him

[@brogantatexo]

Aww Lily, I love that! Thank you so much! HAHAH TOO FUNNY! xx

[@kaybowen3456]

Great to see benji looking so well, he looked very handsome in hes suit❤

[@brogantatexo]

Aw thank you! x

[@Ccnewman17]

I still can’t believe Bonnie will be 12! She so spry and like a puppy! I love it. Hope you feel better soon and Benji is ok after his slip. Poor guy didn’t hesitate to save Bonnie. ❤️

[@brogantatexo]

Lots of people say that to us!! We are so lucky she still has some spring in her step. He is all good luckily!! 😊

[@lindacarson5429]

It's so lovely to see Benji making such a good recovery & you will be quite the handsome couple at black tie night! Bonnie is the cutest. Great vlog. Love Hello Fresh - Iearned so many tips from their recipes.

[@Rosie4511]

So excited to watch this while I eat my dinner. I feel like I really need this vlog right now. I’ve been struggling the past few days but I know this vlog will bring me happiness😁 also gearing myself up to go to the gym this week…I can do it!😅👍🏻 Hope you, Benji and Bonnie have a lovely week🥰💕

[@brogantatexo]

[@brookekendall8156]

Love your vlogs brogan 🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@roxyjinks9643]

Benji looked very handsome in his suit! Bonnie seemed to know what toy you wanted her to have and choose that❤

[@TheRebeccaMcD]

Love your homey vlogs! I hope you feel better soon. The bit with gorgeous Bonnie and Benji in the water was brilliant (shouldn't laugh but it was priceless). We had something very similar happen years ago. We went to Three Choirs Vineyard in Gloucestershire for a posh lunch (all wearing our best clothes) and when we left our dog (who hates water) went running down the lawn and stumbled/plunged into a very mucky, stinky pond. LOL! We had to fish her out and endure a very smelly drive home. xxx

[@paulamontgomery8457]

Hope you’re feeling better now. Enjoy your cruise both of you ❤x

[@mollydurbidge8544]

Can’t wait for the cruise vlog! I’m off on Iona to Norway next weekend after my exams are finished and can’t wait!💗

[@emmag6255]

A Brogan Home video , my fave cosy type of watch 😊 Hope Benji is okay after his fall xx

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you Emma!! He is all good thank you 😊 xx

[@sarahskillin8436]

Love those pajamas they looked so soft too 🥰 enjoyed the vlog as always xx

[@amweki]

I also love Emily Henry’s books! I’m currently reading Beach Read and am OBSESSED! I don’t want it to end!

[@brogantatexo]

SO GOOD!! xx

[@sharonnz3372]

Hi Brogan, hope you feel better soon, I’m just getting over a nasty flu myself. Thank you for the book recommendations, you really help me choose what to read next. Hope benji is ok after his fall, he looked lovely in his suit. Take care❤️

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you! You too! xx

[@CJ-bs7zl]

Mrs. Lever eeeeek! ❤. Wow it all seems so real when you say that! Have you practiced your new signature yet? Oh I’m so excited for you both x

[@ellawoods244]

Watching you hype Benji up in his suit was so sweet🥺

Thanks so much!! 😊

[@lovelysarah367]

Wonderful vlog my friend, watched it twice, hope benji is ok after tumble, your all looking so well and content that’s including bonnie xx ❤❤

[@1inamillionxx]

Funny story… my dog fell in the same way as bonnie - my dad jumped in and ended up slipping FULLY in, then I went in too, and ended up going under. We went swimming 🤣🤣

[@brookekendall8156]

Would love a video on your favourite games 💖

[@gaylenewberry9187]

I'd love to hear about your favourite 2 player games, that'd be a nice thing to do in the evenings instead of just watching TV!

[@melsimcoe4067]

So wonderful to see Benji looking so healthy it's amazing how well he has recovered. I would love a wedding video I got married 16 years ago and we are still happy and have two beautiful children. Also my best friend is getting married and in two weeks it's her hen party which I have organised. Weddings are so exciting I'm so happy for you both ❤🎉

[@stephaniebraidwood9205]

Looking forward to watching this later tonight 😊xx

[@brogantatexo]

Great Vlog I saved it for Bedtime so I could end the day with something lovely. Sorry you are feeling poorly Brogan 😔but Benji is looking so well😊!! Love Bonnie she is just the sweetest dog. Love to you all❤️

[@brogantatexo]

Aww thanks Tracy! 😊 xx

[@sarahcook4464]

I went to the cinema expecting Halle Berry too 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🧜🏿‍♀️ 😂 xx

[@brittainwhite3813]

True Love Experiment is actually the sequel to Soulmate Equation! I didn’t realize this and read True Love first- but there are lots of characters to meet in the first one that help with it!

[@laurenrichier2435]

22:53 the look on Bonnies face 😂 Hope you feel better soon

[@brogantatexo]

Hahah! Thank you Lauren! 😊

[@katdews3535]

Yes would love a 2 player game rec video

[@brogantatexo]

Will do!! xx

[@juliemoffat7282]

so sorry you dont feel well, hope you feel better soonx

[@brogantatexo]

Thanks Julie, much better today! xx

[@ncchic0221]

What I do for a detox bath is 2 cups Epsom Salt, 2 cups of Baking Soda and 0.8 ounces (22 grams) of ground ginger. That’s a small container if you have that in the UK. Heat your bath as hot as you can stand it and soak for 40 minutes. It’s supposed to draw the illness out and/or speed up the healing process. Wrap yourself in that fluffy robe. It doesn’t hurt to pop a cold medicine tablet too. Good luck!

[@brogantatexo]

Ah thanks for the tips! x

[@jobevan6089]

Also home bargains sell olbas bubble bath - have used it for years everytime the kids have a cold

[@etharkhan5837]

I work at Pets Corner, its lovely seeing you in one of our stores!

[@alisonridout]

Great vlog xx

[@anasky00]

Loved how sweet and cosy this video was, except of course where Benji took a tumble. Hope he's ok

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you!! All good 😊

[@BeePoohBear]

Yes please to the list of 2 player games! Thank you

[@brogantatexo]

Will do!

[@user-jj6sv7pf2g]

So we’ve just bought The Great American Mail Race upon your recommendation, we played it for the first time last night and it was really good! Thankyou so much! I love how you and Benji love to play games, much like my boyfriend and I. One of my favourites is ‘Careers’ it’s an old one, I managed to find mine on ebay but it’s a game I absolutely love! We’d love to hear of any new games you buy in the future 😊😊

[@shirleydunn8050]

Something to add to a fish finger sandwich ( bear with me) are gherkins. Really elevates it.

[@brogantatexo]

Oh wow, really?! I'm not sure hahah! xx

[@shirleydunn8050]

@@brogantatexo It sounds weird but if you like gherkins it’s a game changer.

[@beckyleite5024]

Just watched! Fab vlog! The game you were playing - when you stamp the cards.... Is this wipe clean so it can be used again?x

[@maymaymayiscool]

2 player game video would be amazing!

[@clarence8630]

Could you do a 'oufits to wear on a cruise' video? obviously wouldn't have to be for 2 weeks but just to give a general jist of what is good to wear in the daytime/formal nights etc?

[@brogantatexo]

Of course, I'll see what I can do but I'll be showing my outfits in the vlogs too :)

[@MrsKS1993]

Garden looks lush, anyone know where I can get that style furniture?

[@carolinedoherty3169]

Hope Benji is ok after his tumble, I'm sure he still has to be careful after his surgery, he didnt think twice about helping Bonnie 😊

[@brogantatexo]

He's all good luckily! I cut the camera immediately as I was worried about him but he was fine 😊

[@christinahalavaka208]

Halle Berry as Ariel, would've killed it 🤣🤣🤣

[@brogantatexo]

Right?! Hahaha!! xx

[@Carole617]

Loved this home vlog. Sorry you weren't feeling well . Your dog is so adorable. Please could you suggest small travel games we can take on our Norwegian fjords cruise in September. There's just 2 adults . Thank you

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you! We will cover 2 player games soon but some we love are - Dino Dump, P for Pizza, OK Play! xx

[@brogantatexo]

This is so helpful, thank you so much!

[@lexipexi100]

You might want to read The Soulmate Equation before The True Love Experiment as they are companion novels.

[@brogantatexo]

Ooh thank you, that's good to know!

Do you feel the cruise ship move? I went on a boat trip last year and I was being sick over the side so it’s put me off going on a boat!

Has Benji tried matalan for shirts? I know a few people who rate them.

[@racheldixon4102]

Bit of a random q but I remember you taking like an allergy test AGES ago and it came up with eggs and maybe something else- whatever happened with that, obvs you can eat eggs now

[@brogantatexo]

It wasn't an allergy test, it was an intolerance test (not allergic to anything) which meant that at the time (6 years ago!) I was eating eggs every day and it was upsetting my stomach. So the doctor recommended I cut them out, and then re-introduce them slowly. That's what I did, and now I can eat them with no problems (just not every single day!) 😊

[@mesouthseaand2404]
