Thanks to the many unsubscribing... filtering out people who's not here for me was my purpose...

[@markmccormack635]

As I once comment on Coaster Crazy when he vlog the Carter's Steam Fun Fair in black and white (well more like brown and white) and other viewers complain about it not being in colour " vlog what and how you want to don't do it for us do it for you and enjoy your self while doing it " and it's exactly what I say to you vlog yourself riding your bike or building Lego models going to comic cons what ever you want,cause when want you enjoy doing become like a job you hate doing it's time to start finding something else to enjoy.

[@markmccormack635]

My son going to be the same age myself 61 , and I been sub since 2018 and when that phone pack up had to sub again twice on a tablet and phone .

[@intotheunknown1991]

I will always support this channel, I will always be a subscriber, I'm sorry I stopped being a member, I can't afford it anymore, I'm not working right now and I had to make that decision! I'm so sorry people are coming after you and your family on the Internet, they are just people sat behind screens who would never say it to someone's face ! They are the losers

[@GhostAreReal6]

I will always support you mate no matter what you make, I came here for you content is just a added bonus. 😊🙏

[@mrfitton9288]

I will always support this channel I don't judge on what you post I love every video mate keep up the great work

[@scottaustin5362]

Im sorry to hear all the nastiness that is going on. The fairground community will not be the same without you. Take care Dave ❤

[@mastertoymaker5249]

Doesn't have to be Fun Fairs! Since you are out and about anyway.. maybe show us some of those neat things we don't have here in the States. I saw in the drone footage (maybe your Mum's town) what looked like an old castle ruin, what was that!? You are surrounded by beautiful scenery and history. The wife and I would happily go on a virtual bike ride with you to see these uniquely English things. Heck, some of Andy's best vids are of Victorian train stations or funiculars. We will continue watching you, as we have from the start. Stay strong brother! Much love from Southern California ❤

[@GarryWilliams555]

I've had my own battles with mental health the last couple of years and I know how hellish it can really be. I hope you're doing well Dave and i look forward to whatever content you want to share with us. Make the content that makes you happy be that fairs, e-bikes or something else.

[@neilbowers6956]

You're one of the best KZbinrs i folllow Dave. I loved your funfair videos but i am really enjoying your current tranche of videos. You've got to do the right thing that's best for you and the family and if that means taking time out etc. the people will support you no matter what.

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thanks so much dude, love you 😍

[@Wurlyscope]

I’m happy to see you recover and presenting new videos and adventures. It’s so infuriating to see you and your wonderful family being bullied for the fun and joy you tried to bring and share to us all around the world. Keep your head up, you’ve got talent and there’s so many things you can continue to vlog on. Take care!

[@KyleMalpas]

I love watching your videos Slothy Vlogs. ❤

[@Fanriffic2020]

A very personal and from the heart vlog. You did the correct thing by stepping back and taking stock of things. Back to basics is the way to go. Sometimes the random and unplanned stuff is way more entertaining than the planned stuff. I like the vlogs where you use your drone to show the areas that you visit from above. Stay happy Mr Dave. 👍👍

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thank you so much!

[@markmegafobialewis1214]

Well said Dave your family comes first 100% your a top guy and don’t you ever forget all the best mark Megafobia lewis ❤

[@SlothyVlogs]

Bless you mate, still want to meet up soon

[@BrickTV-of1et]

No matter what content you make, i will always watch your channel.

[@user-hw8tx3bl4p]

Dave I think we’ve learnt from you, don’t be afraid too go on big rides as now I’ve over came my fear, your absolutely incredible and so is your family, no matter what you’ll post I’ll always be here too watch it, hope everything gets better 💙💙

[@smokeyjoe9241]

Hey Dave been a fan of ur channel for 4 yrs or so and love the content. I hope you are still on good terms with all the slothy boys Simon, Coop, Kev, Aaron etc miss all the laughs you guys had. Stay strong Dave💪💪

[@walfredtripon3617]

You're a good man... and every good men need to re-think and recharge. It's healthy and well-deserved. Will support you all the way.... Sush a beautiful place, by the way.

[@aspeyal8239]

I totally understand the hormonal situation with Libby, I'm a boy so it's a bit different, but I've really struggled with changes and stuff. Obviously you're going to behave differently when all that's going on. I hope Libby understands that these are just idiots with nothing better to do. Just tell her not to worry.

[@KBH27]

Much love and respect. You're are good guy. Wish only the best for you and your family.

[@paulvincent-squibb4383]

So sorry to hear the amount of shit you have been getting and also your family.i can't believe how horrible some people can be ,they are the sad low one's.all you were doing is having fun with your mates and family.good luck in the future looking forward to your new direction with the videos

[@lukey42]

Big respect to you. Do what you want. Always love your vid. Roll on man

[@badmoonrising7795]

I will remain a subscriber as long as you’re here. I always wanted you to be a theme park guy as that’s my preference but I caught your channel by chance right at the beginning and I subscribed straight away because your vlogs was always funny. I hope things work out for you buddy.❤

[@oddsandwindsocks5905]

Hi Dave, thankyou for letting your fans know what the plans are , yes shame that your success has made some people become nasty to the family which is definitely a no no .hope your still in touch with the fair guys off camera , do you occasionally go to fairs off air . We still enjoying the new content dave so keep em coming mate.

[@stevenking8688]

Hi dave,I've always supported you from the off and always will. You're a top guy with a beautiful family and it's great to see you continue your channel with new content!. Have a break from the fairs and mix it up with these vlogs too,it's great way of expanding aswell. We always get low life's in life but,please don't let stop you altogether mate and I'm sure youur daughter and family realise they are not worth the shoes they walk in!!!. Love this vlog mate and don't give the fairs altogether,what about a local one now and then with the boys. Big love fella,keep on fighting 💪 ❤

[@marcdawson4635]

Enjoying the videos mate, love the editing and content still. Quality is quality. 👌👌👌

[@kayb266]

Good luck on your new adventure dave! Hopefully we will still get to see different content and hopefully see Aaron and family again one day 😊

[@brianparker7644]

I commented to Andy once that I watch to see you enjoying yourself....whatever that may be. I now have said the same to you. 🙂 As for the comments on your family by others...by statistics you got something many don't, an intact loving family, and for the comments I have viewed in the negative have come from what I believe are bitter people poisoned with envy...carry on and you be you. Camping yes...anything else I could suggest would be a stretch...like the next time I come back to the Isle I plan to narrowboat the Peak District and take it easy.

[@chrisstannard7349]

Your a great man Dave, I have a lot of respect for people like you who takes family life seriously. You have a great wife and kids and and I'm sure you are very proud of them all. I have enjoyed watching your family vlogs holidays breaks away e.t.c shows what a great chap you are chin up fella.

[@GhostAreReal6]

Beautiful location mate looks like a lovely location compared to London, London is just doom and gloom brings my mental health down so much. Nice E-Bike mate very fast to keep up with traffic, this location is just so beautiful, Animals are just so nice to have they help improve your mental health. What a lovely day that must of been mate having a nice cup of coffee in the beautiful outdoors. 🥰❤

[@tonymaynard1386]

Hope to see you back on the grounds again one day Dave , it was always a pleasure to watch your Vlogs , take care my friend and do whats best for you , those know all enthusiasts once ganged up on me but not in person not to my face they did it online but i did not lose any sleep over it they were just deleted from my memory end of , i prefer to watch the pull on build up vlogs myself but thats just me old gaff lad with fairgrounds in my blood , look after yourself and take it easy lots of good people out here who have your back , yes i agree those bad mouthing are Jealous how sad they are .

[@ArcticRc]

I belive that people are subscribing to our channels for content not us as person. But after hanging around a bit you feel more connected to that person and that becomes more important. I found your channel cause i like fairgrounds and themeparks. But after a while it was a weekly highlight to watch you and your friends. I have had issues with mental healt since i was a little boy but when i started with my hobby it all went away. Today i make a lot of videos but only cause i like doing so. They are not fancy or edited in super cool ways but just us testing and flying. We also have a second channel with nature videos and trips. Stay strong and enjoy your family. Greetings from Norway.

[@sharongrimshaw8005]

Wow it is beautiful there were you are😊

[@nicola7459]

Nice video. I for one, enjoy your content. When i came across your channel some 4yrs ago,it wasn't just the rides,it was the location's and your editing that got me inspire'd to start filming myself. It got me to travel to places i wouldn't have gone to. So thankyou Dave, keep being you x

[@ridefreaks9238]

Looks like a nice place to ride around. I think I’ll have to look into getting one of these

[@EvasiveSnail]

I hope you find your flame again, or a new one. Sorry on behalf of all of the individuals that made nasty comments and made you feel uncomfortable. I really enjoyed all of your content. I don't come for the fairs so much, more for the host. You always talk so personally. Have you considered doing fair stuff for members only? You only live once, so whatever you do moving forward, make it count. Stealth camping? Wild cooking? So much you could do. Take it easy, rest and recuperate and when it feel right, make the change. Sorry to sound so philosophical, just hang in there dude. All the best. ( I will go back to lurking now)

[@gavinwolves2528]

Dipping back in Dave as life takes over I have slacked on you tube. Great to see you back and doing your thing! Keep doing you Dave.

[@user-pe5jx5tl8u]

Good to see your still doing stuff Dave.

[@chrisfletcher3429]

Great video Dave nice to see you out and about

[@Chris-zh6ww]

What ever you decide to do, I shall be be watching and supporting you

[@attractionshubno1]

I completely respect your reasoning for stepping back from the Funfairs David, yourself and your family comes first. I’ve always had respect for your family and I would never say anything bad about them. They didn’t deserve and you didn’t deserve all the hatred and the negativity that your family got

[@bubblycadbury5098]

Awwww it is such a shame that some idiots that are not human have to ruin things but fair play to you maybe it is a god send to do other things would say I hope those comments about your family have not made things worse you have a lovely , caring family and Libby is a teenager growing up into a lovely lady all the very best for her . E bikes I like would like to get one so your vids are helping Continue with You Tube , keep smiling doing a great job ❤

[@palderson]

Wherever your channel ends up Im sure you will have plenty of viewers. You are such a lovely family. Its been great watching your adventures. I hope Libby ignores all the bell*ds online.

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thank you so much!

[@scarybear13]

Fairs or no fairs I love your content!! You are a great guy and your newer content is great!

[@wearesunshineradio]

Good on you Dave. Regroup, and remember, those that shout the loudest do so because they have the smallest voice.

[@andreasbobzin2687]

Nice bike and cool video👍 Take your time, family is most important in life and stay away from toxic people. All the best for the future. Andy from 🇩🇪

[@scottbutcher9093]

Keep doing what you love no matter what.

[@grahamhaynes3420]

Dave thanks for taking the time to let people know how you doing mate people always hate when you have a successful channel I know a forum fairground related and never post anything on there anymore some of the old people on there are so over board I lost interest in fairs Your channel got me back into it again never let them bring you down so do what you want to do enjoy life

[@Killercutsvideo]

OMG those ducks are so freaking CUTE!!!

[@karenkalasy8251]

Thanks for Sharing Dave. Family and burnout as u had a job too. Take the time u need..being there for Libby too. Time is precious my 16yr old daughter has had Anorexia 2 years ago went to 5 stones. She was also suicidal and still under CAMHS. Being tested for Autism. She finishes her GCSE'S this week. When she was in hospital for refeeding..I had to help her shower as she couldn't be alone. She was like a prisoner of war all her bones showing traumatic is an understatement 😮. Tell Libby she is beautiful and i wish her all the best❤. We have sobering things happen and take stock of all. When we were going through this we watched u and Simon and Aaron and we always laughed and smiled😂😊. Sending love from Blackpool. No other Vlog was like yours.

[@sergiolandz6056]

at least you have your library we can go threw, i always love to watch you and your friends have a good time at the fair. And as for the negativity goes, i wouldnt even bother reading the comments to be honnest. You are a great fair youtuber and for me hands down the best. Hopefully your new youtube adventure brings your success ! Cheers bud from Canada !

[@catherineclark4484]

Will watch your vlogs, whatever you do, take care

[@donfranktv]

All your content is great Dave - you have a good community of people behind you who will support you whichever way you take the channel. Onwards mate 👍

[@johnwheelan3703]

Flexi cop I've got one too. When people verbally attack your family, it really hits hard I know it does. I'm always give you positive feedback. I really enjoyed this video so much. Thank you so very much.

[@breakingtrailsuk]

Family first dave. Mental health is the most important thing and sometimes we need to reset and take it back to basics. No matter what content you upload as long as it makes you happy that's the main thing. In regards to the haters mate I think they've actually helped you see what's important in life smilw😊

[@seanblyth1130]

Whatever you do your videos are always a good watch! Keep up the good work! 👏🏻

[@davidbrimble3078]

A great video Dave Thanks for you openness and honesty I will always watch what ever your content is your a legend

[@stuartmckelvie446]

Stunning location Dave. 👌🏻

[@snowmanbuzzfm]

Dave man just catching up wirh a few channels. I can really relate totally. I have been involved with something most of my life and it was consuming enough never mind having a social media presence at the same time so no need to feel you need to please anyone but you and what's best for you and your family. I stepped away from my 'life'for 3yrs and now I'm just getting into it again and it feels good again after having a break and doing a few other things. Your the bigger man for coming on here and defending your family from the weirdos who have nothing better to do. Some strange people breathe the same air as us sadly. But don't watch that Dave. Honestly I first found you with the waltzer build up video all those yrs ago and then jumped on for the ride wirh Si Coops Connor and Aaron and all the crew and the amount of times I've cries laughing your channel has always been a good antidote to a shit day. So keep doing what you want to do as is say the people who do stick around see something in you man rather than the content nonmattrr what it may be. Stay strong bro

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thank you so much for the lovely words, Really appreciate it. ❤️

[@snowmanbuzzfm]

@@SlothyVlogs it's 100% ❤ Dave always

[@nigelking7537]

Some people are just jealous and they will never produce the quality of videos that you have over the years im still here enjoy what you want to do and maybe we mite see you soon

[@atsukohirota578]

I already knew that you had quit doing fair vlogs because I’m in contact with Simon and he let me know about that. Just do what you love people will enjoy what ever you produce.

[@kieran6460]

Even if its not funfairs ill still watch ur vids man! Hopefully one day we can get the squad together and do one last fair keep up the new ebike videos 🤙

[@weldinginspector7212]

Look after your family mate. Will still be here… plenty of funfair content on your channel from previous years still to enjoy also 👍🏻

[@Cal900]

This is a hobby! Make whatever videos you want. Enjoy it, screw everyone else.

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thank you

[@mikebailey7344]

I'll still watch your channel x

[@SlothyVlogs]

Appreciate you

[@hnm9695]

Enjoying the new content Dave. That Delorean was amazing in your recent video! Love the idea of e bikes but would probably make a bit of a spectacle of myself if I had a go😂 all the best to you and your family 😊

[@TheFrankyboy221]

Its good your out on your e bike fresh air and the scenery is amazing will miss the fairground hope you get better mate

[@robanglesea9696]

Keep going Dave, I enjoyed your theme park vlog the other week, more of them, may be go back to where it all started with you and the lads down the fairs. ❤

[@jonathanlove8738]

Hello Dave!!! It's always great to see you mate and I did enjoy your video showing a different side of things. If you ever need someone to talk to or just to vent, I am here. God bless you and your family.

[@technicalmadman2986]

That bike has a decent range 👍👍

[@PeterNolan-qq5py]

It’s you that we want to watch. Thanks for carrying on Dave. Keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@intotheunknown1991]

Seriously they said Libby needs to get a personality?? God maybe these people need a personality and get a life! Im so sorry that I've stopped being a member i can't afford it anymore as im not working, I will always be a subscriber and i will always support you, i will forever be grateful to you for inspiring me to do my own content, my fair content is doing well at the moment, so I have you to thank for that ❤

[@samhassall1180]

As a regular comic con attendee i love the new content!. You have a lovely family and those idiots who have made negative comments are purely jealous. Keep being you and do what makes you happy

[@wezzmusic]

Hi Dave. I totally understand where you're coming from. Feeling like your going round in circles and ultimately not enjoying it as much. Also, I too have suffered through depression and anxiety it's not a nice feeling. What I can't understand is why anyone would treat you and your family so badly with abusive language and trolling. I've always enjoyed your vlogs, your enthusiasm and your straight up honesty and I've been watching your vlogs since you started as a theme park fanny. 😂 Anyway, enough of me blabbering. Looking forward to your next vlog, whenever you post it. Look after yourself and your family. They always come first. Take care dude. 👍

[@alyssabradley7671]

Awesome video whether its the fair vlogs or other vlogs your content is amazing

[@robwarner9371]

Solidarity, Dave. We may have found your channel because of the fair stuff, but as your content evolves, we’re staying because, put simply, you make great vlogs! Film the stuff you feel happy filming and put it out when you have time to do so. And take care of number one.

[@Chris-zh6ww]

Sad to hear that Dave, you and your family deserve better

[@Alexisgamins]

Please do funfairs ur my favourite please don’t quit😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@padginge5599]

Fair play Dave family first always watch your vlogs regardless

[@user-tn5sq4du9g]

So sorry to hear this Dave will miss your vlogs.Do what makes you happy.Be kind to yourself

[@GiftsbyChosen]

Hey Dave😊, Being out in nature and one with your thoughts TRULY helps with the mental. I'm glad you're doing what's best for you, and the family. We're a fan of the entertainment/content... the fairs are just the extra bonus 😊 Will you be doing your interview like you did with Aaron about your love for fairs? Just because you're not there, doesn't mean you can't talk about your experiences. Just a thought. Take care mush😊

[@thaisi76]

"HOW DO YOU KNOW ME? 😂

[@babagee8040]

A very nice vid, lotsa sunshine and fresh air!

[@neilbuckley9201]

I'm glad you're doing what's best for your family Dave so many haters out there got nothing better to do than make drama all the time stick with what you want to do fuck them hiding away always glad to like a new post you put on the channel keep up the good work

[@matthewrichards1987]

Another gr8 video. Dave will you be reviewing and s3x toys anytime soon?

[@mikeyflax3689]

Hi David Stratton I am really sorry that you can't do anymore fairs which is a shame that the fairs aren't your cup of tea anymore and I know that you are angry and frustrated about the nasty comments but just remember that I am here to support your channel and I will stay subscribed to you for as long as you need me to buddy. By the way whereabouts are you at the weekend please? as we're going to be travelling around the south coast for the next few days and I would like to come and visit you and your family for the first time if you are free and you're not busy mate.

[@dcstanda]

It's a shame that you're not doing what you love doing but can understand your reasons behind it and I would never be able to afford to do funfairs all the time plus the journeys etc... but I think you should go to fun fairs for your enjoyment now and with your friends and daughter as you will get more enjoyment out of it. As for the trolls I'm sorry that you're going through all that and how its affected your family, this is the problem these days people get jealous of peoples success and can never understand why but hope your channel is more successful in the future than its ever been and a middle finger up to the lot of the haters

[@TransportNut89]

Fair play Dave! Absolutely disgusting that there are some absolutely horrible people about. Unfortunately there are some jealous and vindictive people in most hobbies. I've been victim of hate and lies spread about myself as well. That's within the hobby that I enjoy, which is transport. It seriously does drag you down. But remember you've got this and the trolls will never win, because you've got more people who support you no matter what and will have your back.

[@rachelbridger2473]

I love a random vlog. So much content on youtube there is always something to please everyone and if someone isnt pleased dont watch KZbin simple as that

[@jakesgreatadventures]

Amazing video I love tje e bike videos I have one too it’s amazing getting out on it

[@LiamLoweguest]

Give it a try exploring abandoned places

[@Ukfairgrounds]

I use to love riding my bike not a electric one just a normal one but the tire popped should definitely get it fixed soon I live right by tatton park witch is a great place to ride

[@wezzmusic]

Forgot to mention the ducks!! How cute are they ❤

[@rossnolan2883]

[@attractionshubno1]

I will always stay subbed to the channel because I’m loyal

[@stevenshailer5605]

I do hope that the fair videos will return I hope that we could have some more build up videos.

[@aspeyal8239]

Stuff the trolls, they're just jealous of your vlogging skill. It would be nice to see some theme park stuff but I just think that you're a very naturally funny guy so I'll still watch you no matter what. ❤

[@Kadz1149]

Hope your okay love the ducks 😂

[@VoidCastle-fg3nr]

Amazing video it’s a shame you quit fairs but I support you !!! Your the best KZbinr !!!!

[@VoidCastle-fg3nr]
