[@lindawilson6419]

Luke, I've just watched your vlog from a year ago, being honest with myself, I am 60yrs old with 2 sons 30yr and 33yr old, they like you are sensitive lads , they are thoughtful and kind, they were bullied and had no confidence, I wanted you to know your not alone, they suffer from mental health but age has helped, I watched my eldest get married and his brother was his best man, I cried all day with the men they have become, so proud. Your mum must be so proud of you, love your vlogs ❤❤❤

Happy new year to you both. We’re also loving Fool me once. Interesting fact … it’s filmed at Arley hall in Cheshire and in 2018 our daughter was married there so it’s a double pleasure for us. (Pesky Blinders also filmed there). It’s a beautiful place to visit. Lovely to see the progress with your home. Take care.

I need to finish taking down some of the decorations as well as the tree, get it all put away once and for all. Best of luck to you on the marathon, you've got this!

[@Februarlig]

Welcome back after your well deserved break :) I really hope all your glass and ceramic christmas bits are safe, because I would wrap them individually and put them in a hard container out of fear :O

[@dorothyrowe8832]

Hi Luke, Nice to see you again. My Christmas was very quiet, one of my twin sons moved out just before Christmas but also he had an op in between moving into his girlfriends house and Christmas, the op went well but I was very worried I am a normal mother. My eldest had gone to his girlfriends at Spennymoor so Christmas day there was just me the other twin and my youngest, New Years Day my son who had the op and his girlfriend came for dinner so there was 5 of us. 😊 xx

[@TrishBanfield]

Happy New Year Luke , Zara and Maggie! Luke, have you heard of an iron fish? It is a product (various shapes, styles) that you throw into your pot while cooking. It is basically a piece of iron and your food absorbs extra iron while cooking. My daughter and I have had bouts of anemia and use it when feeling run down. Amazon carries it. best of luck with your training!

[@sallywest5634]

Good to see you back happy new year to you guys sound like it's going to be very busy and exciting. Great news on the marathon Luke such a good cause xx

[@LukeCatleugh]

Happy new year. I’ve donated to your charity good luck. Know what you mean about space after taking the tree down we have kept our furniture in the same place looks much better and there’s room for the tree this Xmas without moving anything 😂 I always do my chilli in the slow cooker. You need to make cornbread it goes well with chilli.

[@LukeCatleugh]

Ahh happy new year to you! I really need to give cornbread a go for sure!

[@debrastevens5541]

Happy 2024. Exciting that you are going to. Run in a marathon ♥️

[@elizabethhamilton8388]

So kind of you to run in the marathon for PSP. I have never heard of this illness until you mentioned it. I hope they find a cure for it. I love the flowers that you bought at the grocery store. We call the small white ones, babies breath, here in America and they are one of my very favorite filler flowers. The lights are going to look wonderful once you get them hung. Have missed you guys a lot but, everyone needs some time off. My husband retired the last day of December and it’s been wonderful but, he is having a hard time just trying to relax now and then. It’s a great change but, we just have to get used to having time off and finally more time together. Hope you had a great Christmas and a wonderful new year day. Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida.😎🦩🌞🦩😎

Well done on getting a place for the marathon. I hope your training goes well. I’m not familiar with that illness but I do know about MD which is within the same spectrum I think. Of course I’ll sponsor you. House plans sound good.

You go this and Happy new year to you all xx

[@dianedelandro5027]

Fantastic news about the marathon. It’s a great event and has a fantastic atmosphere. I did my first marathon at 54 and I am not a natural runner but I love it. I will definitely make a donation for such a wonderful cause. My friend last her life to PSP 5 years ago. So little is known about this condition. I will be volunteering at the London Marathon so I will hopefully see you to say good luck.

[@kdean9537]

Hi Luke, Happy New Year! It's so wonderful to see you & your home is looking so beautiful and cozy! Never feel it's necessary to apologize for having a break, we all need one and you & Zara have had such a lot going on just before Christmas, let alone getting ready for Christmas! It's wonderful to hear you are running the London marathon, and for such a good cause, good luck, you'll do great! The hurricane lights are gorgeous! Maggie is so adorable, would you please give her a big hug for me, this was our first Christmas without our little dog & her presence was very much missed! Thank you so much for sharing, take really good care of yourself & each other. Lots of love Kathy x 💕💕

Happy New Year to you, Zara and Maggie Luke. A very slow start to the new year for me, as i have been getting over the winter lurgy. I have to admit i always struggle with Christmas, never has been the same since losing my Mum, but i plod on. Wonderful news about you running the marathon, i know can do this Luke, i wish you all the best 🙂. It's always lovely watching your video's great to see you back...I am celebrating my birthday this coming Tuesday, looking forward to spending it with my brother and sister. Have a wonderful week Luke and follow your dreams🙂

Happy new year, family! I'm glad you have been able to disconnect for some time. Many times we are not aware of how tired we are in this frenetic world. Congratulations for your announcement, a very good project indeed. Love all your videos, but I'm excited to see your progression on your house makeover. Anyone else was getting nervous about the fridge been open while he was chatting? 😅 Wishing you all a great new year. If you think it's possible, it will be possible!

Happy new year, nice to see you back. Hope you enjoy everything to do with the London Marathon, the atmosphere at these runs is supposed to be really good. Im so pleased you sorted out the light, that was a little scary 😅. Great start to the new year though. Xx

[@lully381]

Happy New year Luke! Good to see you so happy and excited about things. I remember a while ago, was it last year or the year before, I forget, but you were so down, wanting to move and unable to, you put out such a heartfelt Vlog, and I could feel how you felt because I too have been trying to move since about 2019, and things just kept getting in the way, and it felt like it was never going to happen. You never gave up, and I didn't either, your determination even though you were struggling came shing through, It felt like we were both on the same page somewhat. Then you announced the move was going to happen and I was so pleased for you both, we too hopefully will be on the move this year also, this is the year for our pages to be turned I feel. Seeing you guys in your new home has given me faith that next Christmas we will hopefully be putting up the decorations in our new home and beginning our new chapter too. Glad you took a nice long break, good to recharge and get stronger before returning to the big wide world of work and life, you deserved that. Good luck in the marathon, good luck for 2024 and keep that smile! Thank you for helping to keep me grounded and fucussed on my end goal.
