You guys, Bald and Bankrupt also on youtube

Great KZbin channel @kingingit nothing else worth watching!

Kara and Nate were my gateway drug into channels like yours and you guys have rapidly become my favorites. I look forward to your videos every week. Thanks for all the laughs, feels, and adventures.

[@helenvander-heyden2383]

Agreed

[@mylittlesuperhero581]

Agree 💯.

[@Joedisney]

Not me I'm so tired of watching DIY projects. I watched these channels to escape from the mundane part of life. Watching another channel work around the house I could do that myself

Craig you brought tears to my eyes instantly while you smiled, in the truck stop, mentioning all your gratitude and that you came off your meds!!! That's fantastic! And reading that beautiful book before bed. You go Craig!! Really incredible. Thanks for sharing you xx

[@Kimberly-cw4rj]

Your commercials are top notch. I love watching your videos and the sponsor breaks just make it fun rather than wanting to skip, you could sell me anything.😂

[@TheWalnut47]

Thanks both. Wonderful video, and funny too. PS: Just to let the advertisers know that Craig and Aimee's homemade adverts are the only ones on KZbin that I don't skip over - they're always worth watching for their originality!

Custard the bus should get a garage on your new place. You two should get start help in the renovation process from Eamon and Bec

[@welshhobbit4092]

My advice is buy a mini digger. The amount of different things you can use a mini digger for will save you thousands in the long run, plus you don't run your own body into the ground. The amount of money we've spent on hiring diggers over the 20 years!!! of renovating, we could have bought a mini digger 5 times over. Good luck, and I look forward to watching your progress.

[@lostlangley]

My dad did the exact same, bought a digger for renovations then sold it for £3k more than he bought it for. It's so expensive to hire 😬

[@tamarakelli687]

Here's a tip: for fake Christmas trees that "shed snow" just spray with a extreme hold hairspray or spray or non flammable glue. Works for ours.

[@laurenm8561]

Netflix is great... but there’s a great couple who are slightly crazy driving around in a green bus taking us to places that always leave us laughing and questioning our sanity or their sanity lol. Lions and tigers and bears oh my! I’m so excited for you two, can’t wait to get started on your Reno! Updated: Proud of you for talking about mental health, congratulations on the meds. No shame in needing them and giving them up when the time is right. Amy you look beautiful in that long wig. 💞

So happy to hear you're feeling better Craig! Remember that if you need to go back on them that is okay too and it is not a step back it is just part of the progress. I was on anti-anxiety meds for 7 years on and off until about 2 years ago when I also moved to a new place. Wishing you guys all the best

Happy for you, Craig! Do remember though, that there is no shame in needing anti-depressants, if you were ever to need them again. 💛

[@lisaguthridge4640]

Massive congratulations for the entrance into homeownership!! I heard a fellow traveler describe coming home after a trip as a “destination spot”. Meaning she’d fixed her home up so cozy that it excited her to come home. I wish that for you both.

[@lynharry699]

So happy for you guys, you are truly blessed. You are one of my favs on KZbin along with Max & Occy, Eamon & Bec, Van Wives, Kara & Nate & Sailing Nandji. You’re all good people on this earth and restore my faith in human kindness.

You have beautiful long hair and don’t really need to wear one but just for the record, I enjoy watching you with different styles and colors and lengths!! I’ve wanted a wig for awhile and I think I’m going to get one. My hair is thin on top so thank you!! Craig, you’re awesome and I love your accent.. so glad y’all are settling down now!

[@doctorplanet6864]

22:25 stellar advice Amy -- prolly good turning that into a plaque and hanging it over the mantel :))) And hey - good on ya both for making your dreams come true!! As for the giant reno bit - lol - don't be afraid to have more than a few projects going at once -- measure in weeks and months, NOT hours/days -- never feel guilty or afraid to take a break -- be kind to yourselves so it doesn't all start to feel like a burden -- be realistic and know that everything will take time - years even, but you're doing it and we love watching and supporting your journey :)))

I was so envious when you were in Edinburgh, it's one of my favorite cities; every time we have been in the UK, we have always spent several days there. My traveling days are over, so I will have to be satisfied looking at someone else's pictures and the Tattoo every year on KZbin. Enjoy your cottage.

[@windsongdesigns6655]

Congrats on leaving antidepressants. As a husband of a depression patient I hope the best for you. Keep monitoring your wellbeing and dont fear if you ever (hopefully not) have to start again. Keep on fighting!

[@qanadin]

My wife and I had so much fun at the Christmas Market in Edinburgh when we went in 2021. We didn't even know it was a thing and we just happened to stumble upon it. Such a magical thing to do in that city. And The Scotch Whisky Experience was an amazing thing to do as well!! I have fallen in love with Edinburgh and need to go back soon.

[@carenclemmons5002]

As you two make the spots/spaces for your love, rest and thrill satisfying nooks, be sure to link them logically for the ways you two flow through life. Make it fun to clean, build and encourage butterfly’s mating. Chances are you will probably make the homestead somewhere you dislike being away from. Remember that You Tube has a plethora of topics to help you tackle every task/project you encounter. Every. And it’s so fun to do the research. Love you guys because you rule your own world.

[@Graygramma]

You two are better than Netflix. I grab a Bowl of popcorn and settle in to watch your adventures. A huge hug to Craig for sharing his mental health update. Not only are you Ruling Your Own World, but you are doing it with kindness. Which is my recommendation as you move into your new home…be kind to one another, and each other’s ideas. Each should make a list of must haves and maybes…and then share. No judgment. It then becomes a conversation starter to help prioritize activities. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year🎉

Welcome to Scotland. So good that you have found a home and that you are willing to put the work into renovating your purchase. Having seen your last episode, I would recommend that you take Scottish winter weather seriously. It is no joke. Always prepare for the worst and don’t become a statistic.

Hey guys, I´m falling in love with you more and more with every video of yours! You are so funny, so absolutely crazy and hilarious, but with hearts of gold and depth. Wishing you all the best for the new and exciting chapter of your lifes, the renovation and the living in your beautiful house! I wish I´d live in Scotland, I´d totally offer you my help!

[@ellac89]

you mentioned being patient and kind to each other during this project. But, I think it's important to also be patient and kind to the house. So often when I do big projects I just get lost what what needs to get done, deadlines, setbacks, etc that I can grow to resent the project. A full house renovation and restoration is going to take a toll and I recommend trying to take a step back everyonce in a while to remember the whole picture and why your doing this project in the first place, as well as why you love it. All coming from almost 15 years as a DIYer, maker, assistant house renovatior to my dad, and artist.

Cannot wait till you get your furry family members .. so near.and dear to my heart!

[@lillyisgaming]

You could always put an old camper or something on the property and let people stay there for a vacation in bonny Scotland for help with the renovation in return. There is a bunch of people doing stuff like that in Germany and it gives people that don't have great finances the chance to get out and see somewhere new and you get a few more hands to help you out :)

[@AlicexFouch]

Craig I’m so proud of you for coming off the Anti-Depressants. I grew up with my father learning to control his Bipolar, now knowing the intricacies of finding the correct medication to deal best with the ups and downs of life. I’m so happy for you and Amy every Sunday to see you both growing and flourishing in Scotland. It’s so inspiring I’m nearing the end of my 20’s and feeling the urge to find a place to called Base Camp, you have both Truly inspired me to look into Scotland. I’m so excited to see all the new skills you’re both going to learn and then also so excited to learn from the both of you!! Here’s to 2024!!!!

If I can offer one piece of advice for your future homeownership... when starting a project, decide which one of you will be 'the boss' or 'in charge' on that task...One boss the other is the worker bee or apprentice. Do this for every major project and sometimes the minor ones. My husband and I learned to do this (the hard way) when we started working on our first 'home improvement' project over 45 years ago. Yes next week we celebrate 46 yers of marriage and 49 years together... .so I think this advice works 😉. Best to you both. I just started watching you a few months ago and really enjoy your channel

[@arlenesolis024]

yes! I loved your comment about how there's no need to rush it. We recently renovated our kitchen and our mantra was: Blood, Sweat but No Tears. When we got overly frustrated by something we stopped and took a break for as long is it took to come back to that task with a fresh attitude. If we were tempted to argue, we new it was time to stop and take a break. It made the process so nice! All our friends were complaining about how stressful their renovations were and we just had fun! We learned new skills that we're both so proud of annnnd the whole thing just feels fused with a lovely intentionally joyful essence. I highly recommend it as a mantra!

You should try putting dryer sheets in Custard when you store her. Put one in every drawer and a few where you usually store food. I've used about a box every year for 20+ years and I've never had a problem with critters. 🙂

Park Custard on some large very sticky rodent control mats so the mice have no access to the wheels, also check that no mud flaps are closer than 6 inches to the ground. Jack her up, slide the mats under the wheels then lower her down on them. Also check that they can't climb down onto her.

I remember when we bought our first home. And then when we sold it because of property values etc and bought our second home....the high that comes with it. The excitement. The realization of a dream you barely knew you had. I am so very happy for you both. That you have found your contentment and peace. Just promise each other....that should it ever become a nightmare more than a dream you get out before your mental and physical health take a beating. A new home is a lot of work even when it is move in ready. You still need to make it yours afterall. But our first home was a fixer upper. It is more work than you can imagine and the stress will get to a point where it is overwhelming at times. Just remember that this too shall pass and stay focused on each other and what is important.

Thank you for your fun videos! We dont have anything like your Christmas markets, so after watching you and Raya, Louie and Neo in their Days of Christmas videos, im inspired to finally put up our old artificial Christmas tree! Cant wait for you to start working on refurbishing your new home! Having your own place is everything to come back to, no matter how far you roam! (It seams like Aimee has the design vision, even though she doesnt have the diy skills! I used to be a designer for a furniture store and we used double stick carpet tape to put up wall paper that would make it easier to change out. I once used this technique in an apartment years ago. When i moved out, the landlord liked it so much that she asked me not to take it down!)
