[@keddy6live]

Hit me up if you need an electrician/photographer to help out. I'm camping in Pleasant bay also in August if you guys want some East Coast humor. I'm already jealous that Simon D'entrimont tracked you down lol

[@moenielsen3218]

I like your humor and the fact that your whole family is in on it. It's very good and sets you apart as a KZbinr.

[@tilerman]

I love the bloopers. Amanda's mum is really cool!

[@fototripper]

Is...is this Amanda's mum?

[@judypaulhus4451]

Amanda's Mum is cool, we were best friends in Gander. Funny, pretty and always up for adventures.

[@denisegreene8441]

Just had this fall into my recommended viewings. You will LOVE NS. Born and raised there..live in BC now.... and the landscapes in NS are varied and stunning. So much to see. My aunt and uncle actually converted an old church almost 60 yrs ago on Windmill Rd in Dartmouth. It's no longer there but you definitely felt a sense of peace in their home. Hope you have enjoyed the move and your new home province.

[@kennygo8300]

Nothing feeds creativity like change. All the best on your move and photo shoots to come. BTW, Jenny is quite the looker! Awesome baby blues...

[@TheOKellys]

OMG, this is fantastic. You make me want to pick up the camera and have fun. We aren't in this genre, but you are my new favorite channel

[@Bazzo61]

I love Amanda's mum. She's brilliant and that old church looks awesome. Really looking forward to the new channel not to mention the old channel in a new location!

[@scottweaverphotovideo]

I can see already this is a good move. Jenny looks happier than I've seen her in any video!

[@lphilpot01]

A nice possibility for the bell would be to make a mount for it outside on the property. Imagine a square-ish brick base with the bell and a small peaked roof over it. It could be your door bell!! LOL

[@MartinFransson]

Instant sub to the new channel as well! We don't have a church but we've renovated an old house for many years.

[@torstenwennberg4845]

Now that's how you 'change' your channel! So much work ahead and so excited for you!

[@Buenosdiiaz]

Anything Hardcastle has my support! Good luck on the new adventure and Subscribed to the new channel.

[@fototripper]

Thanks a lot John :)

[@JanneRanta]

Very nice looking church. And awesome that you're thinking about recycling everything. Best of luck! Cant wait to see how you get settled.

[@FarreIl]

Congratulations on your new church, wish you four all the best and hope that you'll make from the house a home.

[@toddcanterino3376]

What a great adventure you signed up for! Congrats and I'm wishing you much success with the renovation.

[@srameypr]

I'm excited to see your new photography adventures, Garmin.

[@johnround8311]

A couple of things Gavin; Firstly, if you venture into the bat`s domain to clean up the guano, please wear a respirator and secondly, the attic and bell tower would make a perfect mother-in-law abode.

[@mortenthorpe]

yes… bird/bat droppings are laden with all kinds of exciting microbes, aome of which our bodies don’t take kindly to

[@kaischmidt730]

Please see whether you can get that bell back to work as intended. It will be a treasure for generations to come.

[@RobertTeague]

Looking forward to your new channel and new adventures.

[@Tom_Graham]

Hello Gavin and Amanda. Just started following your channels and I must admit, you've restarted my Interest in Landscape photography once again. I like the way you do your videos and the bloopers, ha ha. You've made watching and learning landscape videos more entertaining. Thanks for all you do.

[@antonyhalls5322]

Brilliant. Amanda's mum is a comic genius. The church is beautiful. You now have your own chuch to get married in! Come on Gavin, do the right thing. 😂

[@khelwii]

you're the most entertaining photographer I ever watch, dope scenario

[@shenaluke]

I can't wait to see what you do with this project. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@helmutNO]

Uh, that was quite the twist for the channel! Looking forward to checking out your new channel, too! I hope renovating the church goes well and that you two like it in Nova Scotia :)

[@QuietLightPhoto]

You could turn the bell into a wash basin or bird bath.

[@fototripper]

a 600 lbs bird bath hahaha

[@Hangiinjohnny]

I am gunna miss the mountains and the chemistry with the guys but looking forward to new sights and new adventures. Hopefully we see that strut into the Atlantic in the next video

[@sornberg]

Good luck on the move. Subscribed. I am sure the church will be big enought for both Amnda's and your mums.

[@fototripper]

Thanks Steve: )

[@KrisLuckPhoto]

So excited for this new journey!

[@frederickmcdonald6636]

Good luck and looking forward to your eye on the east coast, both of them....

[@deblashbrook3209]

That was brilliant 😆, heading over to the new channel now. Best wishes to the both of you, embarking on a new chapter in your lives ❤

[@derekmidgley]

Great, a sequel to Faulty after all these years 🙂. Subscribed!

[@geekgee]

Love your mum-in-law... she's hilarious.

[@dalepowell5368]

Cool, what a fantastic opportunity, looking forward to this.

[@jeanniemaclean-ns3ro]

Love N.S. ..GLAD you are there

[@jiayihuang1711]

Nice to see you get along with your mother in law.

[@deroux]

So exciting! Congratulations!

[@itsjim2875]

Do NOT EVER get rid of that bell! Keep it, clean it, and perhaps move it elsewhere in or on the property, but KEEP IT! (Amanda's Mom is hilarious!)

[@pattymattes7124]

Congrats on the move. I hope you are okay with the occasional Nor'easters. I understand there are lots of possibilities for some incredible photography. I'm looking forward to the next video!

[@TimberGeek]

Loving that vaulted ceiling and your framing looks solid from what I could see. Once upon a time my channel was largely about building our timber framed house.

[@stevengangwisch1792]

I'm sad there wasn't a mention of tickling your bell. Looks like a fun project, can't wait to see how it turns out.

[@ronpettitt6184]

My wife and I also bought a place in Nova Scotia which was close to 100 years old. You are about to start a journey and a half. lol I have been waiting to see your new videos of landscape photography in Nova Scotia. Where our house was, we had quite long drives to even get to interesting places. We were 1 hour from the main highway. There is a price to pay for seclusion. From the map you showed in the video, it looks like you're closer to Halifax than we were. We were on Chedabucto Bay near Canso, in the middle of nowhere. I do envy you having the camper so you will be ably to stay overnight where necessary. Can't wait for the new videos.

[@fototripper]

Aaaah but the tranquility...

[@lewk9659]

I hope the trip was good, and that you don't hit too many snags in NS. I believe I spotted the Peggy's Cove lighthouse...can't wait for that one.

[@CJ-ki4qw]

The best actress award goes to .................................. your mother-in-law

[@nitinmistry6280]

Just discovered your channel while watching Simone's channel. You and your wife have my sense of humor and from your accent you must be from the North of UK. I grew up in Yorkshire but now live in Brampton, Ontario. Best thing I ever did. Canada is such a beautiful place. If you are every in Toronto, come over for an authentic Indian curry :-) Love you channel!! Looking forward to your reno!

[@projektphotovisions]

Crazy positive family :D. What a project ahead - I am going to follow this right now! Very inspiring!

[@kronkite1530]

Three minutes in and cheeks already aching from subconscious grinning!

[@savagefrieze4675]

Jenny is great! Should feature more often. What did you say her phone number is? seriously good luck on the church renovation. Cool project. Bay of Fundy is terrific and the tide are awe inspiring.

[@pathogan4854]

very best of luck will hop over to the new channel now !

[@PAULTHESHOTS]

Bloody brilliant. Good luck with the conversion

[@ErrolHeywood]

Been there and done that when we moved an old schoolhouse onto a plot of land in New Zealand. BEST OF LUCK!!

[@hannabolate5657]

As always I enjoyed your video. Also you get extra points for taking your cats with you. Many people would leave their pets behind.

[@fototripper]

NEVER!

[@desgardner7169]

Faulty Towers here we come! Does Amanda's mum have a channel I like her she is really good in front of the camera unlike some! Yes I will watch the new channel do we get paid? Thank you for keeping us informed about what's going on, I shall not watch this until the end Adam has just put something on and I never miss any of his stuff...

[@PhotoTrekr]

Looking forward to the new adventures of Mr. and Mrs. Hardcastle. Btw, does Jenny have a channel? She's very funny. :)

[@andrewmusselwhite9458]

I’m jealous good luck with the conversion I’m of to check out your new channel

[@wazigeralph]

What a nice photo of those trees. And the moving. That's gonna be a big job.

[@fototripper]

It was a monumental task.

[@minisla]

Massive job ahead of you..Good luck with it

[@peterfritzphoto]

Damn, I love the outtakes! Pisser! Heading over to sub to your new channel. :-)

[@darrylritter4275]

Awesome. Head out to Scots bay, Lawrence town, The Ovens...those are decent. I also got great milkway shots out by Peggy's cove. There's also a few falls out and about that haven't been to yet. Happy shooting!

[@Hirsutechin]

It's finally confirmed what we all knew already - there are bats in your belfry. However Amanda, being well brought-up, has already learned the essentials of living: with the camper outside, cleanliness is truly next door to godliness.

[@cgriggsiv]

Yes this man definitely has bath in the belfry and it is so funny on how they put things together

[@iangay3449]

keep up the good work, great fun to watch, love the outakes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@denisesavage2382]

I was wondering about the bloopers - Amanda’s Mum is so funny!

[@flashfirephotography3635]

Hi Gavin, mentioned you in recent video, as one of my favorite channels to watch.

[@fototripper]

Thanks muchly :)

[@sylviaknittel4398]

I'm following you for a very long time and love to binge watch all the episodes I missed. This was by far the funniest. I laughed so hard - you found your master in Amandas mother!

[@captain_barnacles]

I knew we’d finally see Gavin’s massive bell, just a matter of time 🤣 Looks cool though so finding a way to keep it would be awesome. Renovation looks fun though, and good luck with it. Top tip for old places: Get yourself a good face mask with proper filters that seal to your face to handle dust (bat crap) etc, not those little paper things, and tough gardening gloves. Number of times I’ve saved my hands from lacerations from old nails or a dose of tetanus while wearing a pair as I fix up and handle old timber is crazy. Now I have another channel to follow! 👍

[@nunocarneiro464]

Now your bell can actually be tickled 😅

[@kelvin869]

The bell tower would make a great spot for a telescope Gavin.

[@lesjoyeuxexplorateurs1179]

Your mother-in-law is the best!

[@stevearita3267]

I so love these videos....and your know what Gavin..."You are lucky"....as Amanda's mom rightly stated!

[@stewartmacintyre7857]

Good luck on the West Coast - glad you got to see East Coast Orca before leaving ;-)

[@anvilcloud]

Jenny is really the best.

[@SkullBro]

Can't believe you didn't take the chance to drive down the shores of Lake Superior. You missed out on some pretty prime locations.

[@aquaticcolledgefishing]

hahaha I love it Gareth. can't wait to see your Church conversion. I'll sub to that too 👍

[@mistycrowimages1875]

Oh dear! They've moved into Hardcastle's Tower, it's now Gavin 'The Mad Monk' 'the bells the bells'

[@tompetersphotography]

All the best to you and Amanda buddy, loved the bloopers to lol 😂

[@transparent1054]

I know this isn't your forte, but that church would be amazing for a portrait studio with those HIGH ceilings.

[@kelleycheung]

You'll miss us over here on the best coast, but please do come for a visit now and then ;). Cheers!

[@klausschleicher523]

This one was very funny. I love Jenny! You are a lucky man ;-) Already subscribed to the new channel. Can't wait to see your first landscape vlog from NS. BTW: If you think Vancouver Island is crowded, you should come to the Alps (Bavaria, Austria or Switzerland), there it is really crowded.

[@fototripper]

oh no doubt. Can't be worse than Banff though...

[@michellewesson4409]

I spotted Peggy’s Cove. One of my. FAVORITE photo spots.

[@dreamcatcher3622]

No wildlife - Grumpy often looked pretty wild to me.

[@SeanStDenis-ob1vh]

Hahaha. KZbin popped up an add just before ol'mumsey said hello. Fully interrupting her. Sad to see you leave bc. Might be time for me to go. Not the same as it used to be. Cost is insane.

[@sh8736]

100 year church sounds pretty new to me could have gone to Yorkshire and found some thing propped old like from circa 1200, will look for ward to seeing what you do with the new pad :)

[@JohnHPettigrewFujishooter67]

Puredeadbrilliant! awesome episode mate, I am sure that was Nessie and not Killer whales, fantastic project you have taken on all the best of luck with it and I will check out Hardcastle Towers for sure.

[@MSmith-Photography]

I totally understand why you moved to the opposite coast. My in-laws aren't even in the same country. 🤣 Hopefully the massive crater-like potholes here in Winnipeg didn't do too much damage to your camper.

[@josephmckay9046]

Your Killen me here. Hahahaha The beginning is hilarious so far.

[@cgriggsiv]

You guys are having too much fun And definitely beautiful shots I could use some advice on some of mine obviously my Lightroom editing skills sucks and yours is really good

[@rayspencer5025]

I would have had to stop by Rouleau, Saskatchewan (aka Dog River) to see the town of one of my favorite TV shows...Corner Gas.

[@foggyf8662]

Hi Gavin & Amanda, First of all I agree, you are a Leyend (whatever that is🤔) Congratulations on the new property, my wife is going to love your new channel and who knows I might actually subscribe to that one. I'm sure you know that the infamous Oak Island is just off the coast of Nova Scotia and Rick & Marty Lagina have managed to waste millions of dollars finding no treasure but have dragged out 9 bloody series of the show on Sky! My point being, they are always looking for the slightest link to Oak Island so they can fill an episode with nothing, I'm sure if you trace the history of your new church you will find that the great, great, great, great, great grandson of William Shakespeare, who's sister was Marie Antoinette who was married to Captain Kidd who had a child called Franklin Roosevelt who actually walked past your church on his way to the bakers for a cheese & onion pastie back in 1924. Its these kind of concrete links they look for! On a more serious note, they might be an interesting couple of lads to meet?? Anyway best of luck to both of you its exciting times for Hardcastle Towers. I'm going to DM you on Insta, reply if you want to, your not going to break my heart if you don't🤥 Best Regards Foggy

[@fototripper]

Brilliant idea. There are already plenty of local legends I can weave into the story, some of which may even be 1% semi-true. I do believe it was the birth place of Genghis Kahns brothers uncles cobbler.

[@CallieRoseStark7]

Excited for your other channel and to see what you do with the old church. I'm curious, how did your cats do on the drive? My cats flips out just going to the vet once a year.

[@fototripper]

They were surprisingly chill.

[@lisabradley9288]

You could not ask for a better mother in law! Amanda's mum is the best 🤣

[@GlenBarnett]

Mother in laws… they’re the same all over mate 😐 One chapter closes and another one opens mate. All the best with your new endeavour. Can’t wait to see the carnage 🤣

[@markjacksonphotos]

Ok you have convinced me to subscribe too Hardcastle Towers because your going to need all the money you can get. Good luck and plenty of cash your going to need it.🙂👍

[@mortenthorpe]

Hardcastle Towers, with your humor on top… Fawlty Towers revisited??? ;)

[@malcolmwhiting3078]

Hey Gavin . That’s one hell of a doorbell you have upstairs 😂

I'm a big fan of your MIL. She needs more camera time. But I think she works better with Adam........ :^)
