And so another new month begins

[@sugarhouse188]

I'm really enjoying your content of late (not that I didn't before). The more casual nature and diversity of topics - not to mention the insight into your life and the choices/decisions you're wrestling with as you approach 50 - is refreshing. The new no dig allotment is also something I'm keen to follow along with. I'm here for it all!

[@lorellstoneman74]

I find myself inspired to get outside in my garden, because of your videos....I often work to the sound of your opening music in my head....

[@dianabullard8644]

You have spunk Sean , take that energy and you go !!! Loved the walk and scenery, thank you . Have a wonderful week!

[@hattyflame3889]

Your so genuine and grounded Sean,so nice to see just a simple authentic way of life displayed.I believe it to be what most will crave in the coming years,back to basics to reclaim the mind.Best of luck and thank you for your video,feels like the realness from the old days and I'm your age turning 50 next year.🌻💛

[@cherryrotella3714]

I think you are a pensive, observant and deep thinking man. I enjoy so much your videos. I like to potter just like you, in my garden and in my little house. Greetings from Devon 👋🏻

[@andreasteele2686]

Great content Sean, thankyou and remember our life is like a book and i feel you turning 50 will be a good chapter for you x

[@8Mosadogg8]

Thank you for talking honestly about your life

[@booksknitsthings]

Enjoying your channel - binge watching 🥦🥒🌽🧅🍠🥕

[@bb2021]

I think your life is successful now Sean. Much more so than then. This is real. Corporate life isn't, it's just a job, regardless of what it pays. x

[@seanjamescameron]

Thank you.

[@MarleneCurrie-j5e]

Your videos are always so entertaining that I never want them to end.

[@emb54]

What a nice spot to walk in. Ditch the gym and take us along on your walks. ; )

[@northumberlandacres]

Hi Séan, Here in Ontario Canada we are legally responsible for clearing the snow and ice on the sidewalks around our homes, but there's no law to clean up those slippery leaves. It seems nonsensical to me; someone could easy break a bone slipping on the leaves. We call those gray firs "blue spruce". I think most people will end up in multigenerational homes due to the current massive inflation. I hope you have a great 50th! 🎉

[@thunderhead180]

We have to figure out how to import Sean to Canada

[@deebrownsell412]

This was a great vlog Sean. Thanks. I would suggest you diarise going to the gym 3 times in a week - just as you diarise going to a work commitment. Try it for a month and if you can't motivate yourself to go then cancel membership.

[@mattszalwinski6869]

Absolutely love the leaded windows in the houses you're walking by early on in the video!

[@sammywalrus]

With the gym Sean the way I thought about it when I stopped mine is that I can walk so there’s my cardio and I spent £30 I think on weights and there are so many videos to show you how to use them for every muscle. For the cost of 1 months gym I’ve got equipment forever

[@susiewilde6077]

Hi Sean. I have me/cfs and I often struggle with noise. Especially when there are noises coming from different directions.

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

Thanks for the walk Sean.

[@OurSmallholdingAdventure]

Lovely little walk, thanks for sharing

[@thunderhead180]

It's always great to hang out with Sean. It makes all the troubles of the world seem manageable. Great discussion on career. What we do is part of our identity no matter what anyone says. It's a big component of our lifestyle, and a big component of our sense of purpose and belonging in our community.

[@onlytm981]

I just hit 50 this past September. I can report it's a good age to be. No longer am I very young; I'm merely a young man now, but that's not a bad thing at all. Definitely a great time for a new chapter as you mentioned. Good luck to you

[@cherylcarlson3315]

You just popped up today. Your blog looks interesting, think it deserves a cuppa and read. I enjoyed seeing the different house styles and masses of windows as you walked, quite different from those in this small IL town which in its heyday had so many great styles it drew me in. Yes, is good to cut expenses to the bone even when money is coming in as disability can come so quickly. Went from biking 20 mi at 50 to 6 at 58 then suddenly couldn't balance it or work manual tran car and walking was nearly impossible let alone talk and walk. Finally got med that helps this disease but isn't fun to be 66 and use a cane while people rush to open doors, get the mobility cart. Does mean I am actually going to have to hire someone to dig holes to plant the fruit trees in my back yard, that is a hard pill to swallow. If you like dogs would suggest either being a dog walker for someone older or go to dog shelter and walk or throw the ball for some appreciative pooch. Have a good month!

[@Jay-Leigh]

Having worked 12 hour shift and even 14 some silly days, I fully agree with what you were saying on this video Sean. I’ve still not seen the video of why you moved back to Wales but, it seems to be the best move. Who needs a gym membership when you have the mountains. People and their negativity in comments always makes me giggle Sean… like they know you and your whole life 🙄 I have a herniated disc at the moment but I still walk. I can only do a small distance but the beauty of the village and all it gives me makes me want to keep going. My old mum used to say “think young you stay young”. So you’ll be 50 years young soon what a privilege and you don’t look it so you must be doing all the right things. Thank you for the chat I enjoyed it ❤

[@seanjamescameron]

Basically the house I lived in started falling apart and the landlord didn’t do anything to fix it. I had to move so decided I may as well go to Wales.

[@Jay-Leigh]

@@seanjamescameron Oh dear, that’s a shame he had that attitude. But all things happen for a reason Sean and I believe the quiet and beauty of Wales called you home… Beautiful ❤️

[@sheilacarter7875]

Another great video Sean, that road you walked down had beautiful houses.Enjoyed the walk down to the river,did you know then you would soon be back in Wales? Such a contrast to London definitely a quieter way of life..

[@moiraruth9090]

Another enjoyable vlog. Thank you James

[@justmenicole4842]

This walk and chat was very inspiring by the way. We all need to take a step back sometimes, evaluate what we really want or need , then get up and start! I still dream of having a homestead, but turning 57 at the end of the month, and i know in my head its not a realistic goal , even if my heart wants it, so instead i did some changes to my kitchen and will work on a bigger garden in my backyard 😊 Quebec Canada, now hunkering down for winter with gardenning magazines and note pads!

[@Scruffy1000]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts Sean, and a bit of your back story. You’re so right that we should live in ‘the moment’ and not the past, the thing is the older you get there is more behind you than there is in front , maybe that’s why we look to the past for comfort? On the Gym….. do you have a ‘council’ Leisure centre nearby ? They’re a lot cheaper than a private gym and every bit as good. I go to a ‘forever fit’ class for over fifties, £5 a session and if you don’t feel like going one week then just don’t turn up……no membership fee and you don’t pay for any sessions you miss. It’s nice gentle exercise designed to keep you active. Might be worthwhile checking if there is one available in your area. Plenty of socialisation and a great opportunity to make new friends….. and no one judges you on your physicality…win-win ! All the best. R.

[@carolwhite6979]

Dear Sean, I think we are all at a point where we are re-evaluating our lives and choices that need to be made. Money is very tight and the threat of covid and government heavy-handedness has resulted in unprecedented upheaval in all of our lives. Here we sit in a mess trying to cope and make long term choices in a very uncertain time. unlike the 1940's that seemed to bring a sense of purpose of common interest, we are adrift floundering, and trying to make good long-term choices with the circumstances at hand. I did get alot out of todays post, and appreciated your candour. Trusting all will come right in the dnd. Bless you on your journey. ❤️🇨🇦❤️

[@bobbidazzler1343]

I'm exactly the same Sean. Spring begins on the 1st of January. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@martynsmith2294]

Keep up the great work. Love it. Most relaxing viewing around

[@lindaharwood3564]

I agree with @sugarhouse188..... nice mix, and you seem more centered. Happy for you.

[@dorothywatson4440]

Hi Sean....I don't know why but I felt a bit sad for you as I was watching this particular video. I sense, perhaps not correctly, that you've had a few significant disappointments in your life. I'm NOT asking you so please don't think that. I so wish the very best for you from now on and I look forward to you finding happiness, peace and contentment as you turn 50 in a while and going forward from then on. Fondly, Dorothy.

[@lindaharwood3564]

Excellent video, Sean. I remember as I edged up to my 50th, I had 3 things I wanted to get done in those last 6 months, and two of them - graduating with my master's degree and moving to a new place to live happened... and the third, getting a drivers' license, didn't. But now it is 16 years later - and funny thing - the plans I had to use the master's degree in one way didn't happen, but I use it in many other ways and more effectively; the new place to live happened, and now I feel like a servant trying to run Downton Abbey, and I'm re-evaluating how to change that, and ironically it became clear it wouldn't be safe for me to drive (vision issues) but then the ride-shares evolved, and suddenly I have no more problems 'driving' where and as I need with none of the car upkeep. I got my 3 goals, but just not in any way the way I anticipated. I think you're doing some of the same right now - you're reevaluating the value of the stuff you have - and what you want and really need. If it ihadn't been that there was a tiny plot of land behind our new residence, I would never have tried gardening, and you gave me the impetus to do something rather than nothing. We all are benefitting from slowly and thoughtfully doing a little, doing it often.....

[@Honeybee-ym5vi]

I, too, like your current videos, Sean. I like to see the scenes of neighborhoods and London near you as I live "across the pond." Some of my best experiences lately, btw, have been hunkering down and dealing with a "bare bones" budget in the last few years as I'm retired. I've learned a great deal about my spending habits and myself. So funny...in meditation recently, I see how all of us "live in the future" so much. Seems to be an inherent trait. The jackpot is strengthening the ability to stay in the moment--never easy; yet, wealth resides in that moment. I think a camera on your bike would be so much fun!! Your equipment must be very good--because the cars sounded noisy to me, too. EVs are silent, but as recent reports reveal, EVs are essentially unaffordable for the average person...to replace a battery today is anywhere from $3,000 (Hyundai) to $16,000 (Chevy Bolt!) to $22,000 and above. In British pounds: 2,500 to 13,500 to 18,500.

[@MrRocksoil]

Get on your bike with a head cam,that way we see what you are looking at,which is more interesting than the road ahead.

[@DebbieRobb-tt5he]

Great video Sean. Always good to see what you are up to. As for gym stop it you can always start it again why make them rich. when you can spend that money on something you need.

[@margaretg7861]

Nice one Sean... You have some nice areas round where you live ..Always good to see what you are up to..

[@traceymurphy3469]

Good one Sean 😊

[@muddyboots2531]

Another great video and lots of food for thought.

[@TurtleMyrtle12]

I've heard water/ steam powered vehicles have already been invented but the inventors mysteriously die. There's too much profit in oil/gasoline for the billionaires to let water powered vehicles be produced.

[@felicitywoodruffe4087]

No its surely almost 8 weeks to xmas 55 days off ...8 x7 = 56 days

[@madeleineowen8284]

Hi Sean. Good idea about camera on bike. Tony Smith did that. It was good to watch. Looking forward to your next video. Thanks for sharing.

[@plotno.9]

I have really enjoyed your vlog. You are right, coming up to 50 myself, I do feel the need to reassess my life and my priorities. It does feel like a new phase starting and it feels terrifying and exciting at the same time. Some changes we chose to make, others are forced upon us but it is definitely really important to keep positive no matter what. 💕🌸

[@welshmanjasonpatrick8607]

Looks very interesting walk u story are interesting lotmutes good for community and making friends great video

[@tvtoms]

There are silent cars. Silent tire on road surface? I would not have thought that would happen! Electrics though. They need to honk at people just to be sure they're noticed. It's an actual hazard that they're silent!

[@JohnRogersWalks]

Is that a rather ornate stink pipe behind you at 2:23 Sean?

[@seanjamescameron]

That it is. We’ve got quite a few in the streets around here. Wonder if there is a stink pipe map online? Will have to research it.

[@seanjamescameron]

Just spotted another one at 0:26 on the left

[@David-rc8us]

Hi Sean As I have got older I made a few changes. I released who actually wants the perfect lifestyle. They don't exist never have and never will for most people. Having a off day/weeks just work through it. Facebook lifestyle are selective you only see the perfect holiday, car. They very rarely show you the days they runout of toilet paper. flights of fantasy my friend. I do more with less. I gave up gym and used the money to do things I enjoy. Why not? I was always told I was too thin 25years on the same people tell me I'm overweight. I have adapted the skills to just move away from negative people and situations its not easy but you will feel it. Anyway I enjoy your channel maybe you could give us some insight in to TV companies and what goes on behind the scenes. Within reasonable guidelines. Best regards David

[@seanjamescameron]

I like that idea - my life in TV, am looking for idea because this rain is keeping me indoors.

[@David-rc8us]

@@seanjamescameron You have the insider information on daytime TV. Which I think is junk. Why so many competitions, recap previously covered introductions, re introduction panel members names. Is the actual content very low. Audiences acting like complete idiots making stupid whooping sounds. Are there audienc PLANTS? You could start a mini series obviously whine guidelines. Just a few ideas you could consider. You have a exclusive insider information Just a idea

[@rosemariesmith349]

Wish you were in Aberdeenshire to do a plan for my big garden thanks 😊

[@ggwildlife]

Another excellent video Sean, will you be sowing any seeds over the winter, Garlic, Onion, Broadbeans, lambs lettuce, planting or taking cuttings of fruit ie blackberry.

[@erniewhitfield6454]

love your vedios forgot it was 1st november thanks for telling me been so busy the older you get days seem to fly by may be its my age as someone over 70

[@barrybridgeford530]

The days do fly by. I'm 75 and find my phone's "To Do Lists" app is getting more use these days. If the mid-day rolls by and I feel I haven't got anything accomplished, I whip out my phone and focus on an outstanding item or two! The secret is by day's end getting at least as many items done as have been added to the lists. Organization and accomplishment equal good time management, Ha!

[@lindafoster4628]

Are you still in touch with Tamara on the swiss plot, she used to put her camera on her bike and catch the journey to and from the plot, maybe ask her about it

[@seanjamescameron]

Haven't spoken to her for a long time now.

[@carolynsmith9765]

sounds like your mind is working to hard--relax and take one day at a time .stop worrying about everything .your weight is how your body is. we are all different some medications my be the problem .stop trying so hard stay calm

[@violetraal5383]

Sean. Probably 20 years ago I had a disagreement with my husband. He would work for a company for 2-4 years and then would look for something better. I said to him 'You need to find something you can stick with. With all this chop and changing your CV/ Resume will look like you have no staying power or loyalty to a company'. Well, he looked at me and laughed. He told me the majority of companies don't promote you in your job anymore. They advertise, and you have to apply and compete with outside applicants too. In order to climb up the ladder and reach managerial jobs, you have to change regularly. I worked a government job , resigned, and had my family, then studied and went to work for the council.
