I absolutely love how you chat to the camera as though we are walking with you. 😊

[@raymcdonald6734]

Thank you Sean for your videos. I suffer terribly badly with stress and anxiety and your ramblings really calm my troubled mind God Bless 🙏

[@meadowfield2024]

Me too. I totally agree

[@alicehammond7438]

I find Sean very relatable if I want a relaxing pleasant KZbin he’s my go to

[@margaretsmith7712]

So funny toooo

[@elodieleaf]

🌳I ❤the trees. Beautiful video. Just want to let you know that I so enjoy your videos and your chatting.

[@cherryrotella3714]

I find it very therapeutic to have a good clear out of unnecessary and unused stuff 🙂

[@Oldhip1912]

Didn’t see ‘ subscribe’ come up when you said it, Sean. Maybe because I’ve already subscribed! 😉

[@flowerlady-e5u]

I had to get rid of half of my household when i downsized to a smaller house after retiring. I also was on my own. I have 2 cats also. I sing too. Luv your singing voice - beautiful .🇨🇦

[@annandall9118]

I love getting rid of 'stuff'. Every couple of years I have a big clear out. The loft. The cupboards. The wardrobe. I've got a habit I picked up from my parents which goes like this...don't throw it away, you might need it later...or...the kids might need it... Of course hoarded 'stuff' is rarely ever needed by any one and when I dump it it's like having a big weight lifted off my shoulders. Loving your videos. You're a lovely guy 😊

[@helenprocessofgrowing8007]

I'm enjoying just popping into your day and seeing what you're up to or thinking about..its like bumping into a friend and having a quick catch up..SUBSCRIBE didn’t show on my screen.

[@bb2021]

Exactly. :)

[@ChrisJonty]

Completely agree with this! I was trying to think of why I’m enjoying these type of videos so much and this is exactly it 😊

[@gaillou41]

It lit up for me. When you said subscribe button x

[@rebeccawilliamson4606]

I’m over 50 now. Life has thrown illness at me, and as a nurse I’ve never sat still. Now I must. But I’m going to clean out stuff too! In USA it isn’t easy to donate as much as it was before Covid. ❤

[@MarleneCurrie-j5e]

Good for you Sean having a good clear out of clutter, I tell people to do this all the time but they don't listen. Enjoying those day in the life of Sean videos I think they will keep more viewers interested as people like to see what goes on in the life of others as long as they don't impose too much on your private life. Good luck with a future move if that is what you may decide to do.

[@paulwalsh3163]

Never thought I’d see the day I would watch someone paint a shed and enjoy it while having a cup of tea or 2 or3 0r 4. Ha,ha, thanks Sean for all your videos enjoy every one of them .paul Walsh ireland.😅

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

Lovely trees.

[@TurtleMyrtle12]

The "subscribe" button did glow when you said that! 😅 Awesome! I think the "change" is you being relaxed and sharing a variety of topics.

[@junewright1162]

You make me smile, just looking around at what most people miss. Just keep going Sean we all need reminding whats out and its all free

[@patstephenso7206]

Thank you Sean it's interesting to hear your journey x

[@RhiannonRaven]

In South Wales, the Rowan tree is also known as the Mountain Ash. It is one of the trees that is sacred to the Druids.

[@seanjamescameron]

But the question would be, does Mountain Ash have Mountain Ash? 🤣

[@RhiannonRaven]

i'd be very surprised if it didn't. There are lot of Rowans/Mountain Ash trees in the South Wales valleys from what I can remember. Maybe that would make a nice video Sean, seeking out the Mountain Ash of Mountain Ash @@seanjamescameron 😃

[@charlottemacgregor5061]

I find it so helpful to have a good clear out. I was brought up in a hoarder home and I find mentally so much better when I’ve had a sort through and given stuff away to charity etc.

[@pierreforpm6886]

Yes it lights up

[@DebbieRobb-tt5he]

Its all this positivety Sean.makes us all feel good. The council chopped our trees down in our high street there was public out cry. Needless to say the trees are fighting back the council wont touch them again.

[@catherinetunley983]

The very best of luck with your move and new beginnings in Wales. Take care and looking forward to watching your videos from your new home and garden.x

[@kateteixeira3000]

I've only just started watching your videos, loving them , refreshing coincidences as I'm from crystal palace but I've lived in south Wales for nearly 20 years & my family still live not far from Sydenham , a lot of your views on life are similar, I dislike the parakeets too! , love Wales but miss so much about the smoke !!!

[@margaretg7861]

Nice chat with you Sean... You are getting there ..

[@djf8619]

Lists make life so much easier. You don't have to remember everything. Rowan trees are called Mountain Ash here. They are lovely, but those berries make a mess when they drop, and when the birds come to eat them... droppings all over the place. Not the best kind of tree on a boulevard. When we lived in Germany, the main street was lined with trees, so nice. Then one day we went out for a walk and we saw what you saw on that second tree. I was appalled, but in the spring... lots of branches grew, and the trees were lovely again. Like a miracle.

[@hunkhk]

The severe pruning of those trees is very common in cities like Hanoi and Shanghai but they grow back incredibly quickly and beautifully in spring the wonder of nature never fails

[@muddyboots2531]

Having a plan helps I think. Always work to an ambitious but hopefully achievable goal.

[@NavyCopMA1]

Need to do some lists and re-evaluate things as well. Lost my job last Monday morning and have spent the last week or so just sort of relaxing and trying to figure out my path. I think the decluttering (that everyone seems to agree with as well) would be a good start as I have too much "stuff" and it definitely does add to the stress. But, onwards and upwards as they say!

[@seanjamescameron]

Sorry to hear that. Lots more clearing out to be done during winter ready for a new spring.

[@NavyCopMA1]

@@seanjamescameron Appreciate it. To be honest, not as sad about it as I thought I would be. This may very well be the trigger for other things to come into my life or for me to redirect myself in other areas.

[@helenlane8281]

I love a declutter good for energy levels!

[@hattyflame3889]

Definitely didn't light up 😂 Great videos 📹 enjoy your down to earthness and authentic self,very valuable and rare today ❤

[@karenandriancontainergardening]

Hi Sean. That was a beautiful day! That Rowan tree is beautiful. Hard pruning, 😂🤣Thanks for sharing.

[@Honeybee-ym5vi]

I hope you had a great day, Sean!! I know what you mean about the "subscribe button" lighting up. I've seen other videos recently where they do, but of course, I'm already subscribed.

[@dcsss]

New subscriber here! Everything resonates with me. Just downsized, but still work to do on a second wave of decluttering! Hope you binned the teabags too from over the garden wall haha!

[@w107pxs]

The subscribe button lit up when you said “subscribe button” the first time. The second time it did not. I am guessing its lit only 1 time in the video. Cheers!

[@OurSmallholdingAdventure]

I think you’re relaxed approach is hopefully reflective of you feeling less stressed / not over thinking. I really enjoy these check in videos / vlogs / etc. sadly the button didn’t pop up etc for me (checked mobile and through tv) :) Tracy

[@kasandrabrown8611]

I love your walkabouts

[@izzywizzy2361]

The subscribed button lit and sparkled momentarily🎉

[@seanjamescameron]

🎉

[@pearldasousa4620]

I know that high street used to be around there often some time ago.

[@laurabeetschen2828]

Sean, you can make rowan jelly from the berries…..

[@felicitywoodruffe4087]

Wow thank you I did not know this

[@veronicwbrennan4002]

What a tricky way to get us to subscribe. 😂😂

[@quinndexter]

Yep. The button lights up, but only once.

[@lastmannedlightvessel3180]

Great video Sean! Wish we could de-clutter. Got so much junk everywhere, I think you have inspired us now. Off to buy some bin liners!!

[@janemalins3092]

I quickly unsubscribed then rewound to when you say it , but still no button lighting up, subscribed again.

[@deborahanneswatercolorworld]

I’m already subscribed and did not see the subscribe button pop up when you said to subscribe

[@jaynecotton1014]

The rowan tree. I think its fact that councils now are only allowed to plant native trees, that is , trees native to UK. I know when I did landscaping jobs on communal garden housing estates some years ago, the council would stipulate which trees and shrubs I could plant and would always send some official round to make sure . Some residents complained that many of the trees were boring, or not very ornamental, but hey ho, council had the last word.

[@jaynecotton1014]

Yes. Native trees are great for wildlife and insects, birds ,small mammals. I do believe most local parks and gardens council departments now are obligated to planting native species. you could always lobby your local council to plant more trees . Better for the environment and controlling CO2 emissions. Especially in cities. @@janebaker966

[@emmsue1053]

Subscribe did not light for me, I had to bail out and re-join! When you click it lights and throws confetti at ya! LOL .. Thank you Sean, the trees are gorgeous, love Silver Birch and Rowans.. Rowans have magical powers! Pollarding always looks painful but I guess they recover? Take care, you're doing great.

[@ralphavello9133]

Love your videos my name is Linda thank you for sharing so many wonderful sites with us .

[@catrionamackenzie1345]

That's a really good idea, writing a list and working your way through it.

[@janicecoulson5388]

Our council have planted new trees. Luckily we have a silver birch. The Rowan trees make such a mess when the berries drop

[@rubiccube8953]

Nice video Sean . Jordan Peterson advises make a list . Top of the list tidy your room.

[@allotmentjoy]

The button didn't show but I have subscribed.

[@Lookluuk]

I just subscribed to your other channel hello from arklow across the 💧

[@seanjamescameron]

Welcome.

[@alicehammond7438]

No subscribe Sean dunno why. Ive had loads of clean outs since moving its never ending isnt it?

[@Afteralltherain]

It lit up 😂

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Im new. What town was this, or area? Have you moved? I’ve been downsizing for 11 years. When I lost my husband, really before that. It’s quite a process. The difficult things are the antiques and things that have intrinsic value. Im not wealthy. So the income is needed, but the raker is terrible! I’ve given things away and sold, but still so much more. It’s exhausting! I really am ready to just practically give the rest away and get on with it.

[@seanjamescameron]

This was London.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Thank you for taking the time to answer. I’ll get caught up and maybe won’t have so many questions. It’s like coming into the middle Of a bbc series. 🥰 I loved se gland and scotland and want to go back before too long.

[@jackiebrown-d3e]

IT WORKS SEAN ...

[@Vavala3534]

I'm sorry to report that it did not light up. I looked very carefully and also replayed. Sorry, Sean.

[@sarahstrong7174]

Just subscribe does not work, but subscribe button does.

[@makerofstuff]

Being subscribed my button didn't light up. I am loving your channel now as much as I have during the years. Clearing the stuff out just a bit at a time. It seems to be working.

[@MsPoodlelove]

Thank you for speaking so frankly & openly. I’m interested in the theory of Actmel drinks possibly helping with depression. Is it just the Actimel brand or do all these pro biotic drinks eg like Yakult have the same results. No worries if you don’t know. Kind regards 😀

[@seanjamescameron]

No idea, google the ingredient list.

[@MsPoodlelove]

@@seanjamescameron thanks Sean hope you have a good day. 😀

[@susanrazza9740]

Lol, the subscribe button didn't appear on my screen. I have seen that on other channels, and thought the person put it in their page. Oh well, enjoy your biscuits.

[@idrisjones3854]

good luck with your new home in wales

[@patriciasweet1391]

Tree not pruned - it's been pollarded!

[@Lynette-qh3tw]

How did that cat get in there? You opened the shed and there was a cat on the table behind the books. Or is that a statue. The cat did not move.

[@happytownesvanzandt]

Our possessions own us.

[@nigelbarrett4936]

Tried your "subscribe" experiment both logged in & logged out, nothing happened!

[@patcardiff2563]

It benefits you if your subscribers do not turn off the adverts more money for you if they dont

[@mollierocket705]

🌳

[@patcardiff2563]

And the birds love the berries on them

[@janemalins3092]

Subscribe button not lighting up .

[@kasandrabrown8611]

The button says JOIN and doesn't do anything.

[@seanjamescameron]

There are two buttons, JOIN and SUBSCRIBE.

[@beverlysyferd379]

Subscribe lit up. So I did….

[@northumberlandacres]

The subscribe button didn't pop up; maybe it will only work on the PC and not on mobile devices?

[@seanjamescameron]

Doesn’t seem to work, maybe I’m too early for it.

[@BumblebeeAdventure]

Would just make that shed into a little recording studio

[@lindafoster4628]

No sorry to say that nothing lit up😂

[@susanwoods174]

Is that sugar in ur she'd without a lid? Don't put it in ur tea or anything, anything, mice rats could have been in it, and they leave urine behind..

[@seanjamescameron]

Candle

[@katella]

Hope the rats didn't pee on your candle 😊

[@sissy9405]

Nothing happened when you said subscribe.

No it did not light up - I unsubscribed first to see if it would work but nope!

[@marykappesser5145]
