I think the reason your channel is doing well is a) because you are dong what a lot of us would love to do and b) because you are a likeable man. Will be 10,000 before you know it! x

Found your channel this morning mt like your style ill be following you just subscribed

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Sorry about the terrible sound quality people! I bought a new mic and I clearly need to do some testing with it before I use it again 😆🤣

[@mikeclare5907]

Mike here from County Durham with a nissan nv200 stealth van. Am in late 60's so i appreciate your comments and enjoy your content as a contemporary.. With regard to answering your comments ............Maybe you could pick out common points and address them in a video thanking folk at the same time. Best wishes Mike

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Great idea

[@philotown]

Keep up the good work Kev. People like your videos because you are straight forward and tell it like it is. Best wishes 👍

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thank you

[@amiteshdattamath]

Wow, I'm so happy to see your channel blowing up like this. It feels like (and literally was) just a few days ago you had 50 subscribers, now you are at 1500!! You’ve got a video with 16k views and counting and 1000 likes. Congratulations Kev! 🥳 

 With that said, I'm not at all surprised and expected this would happen when I watched your very first videos. The thing that stood out to me was you came across as an incredibly genuine person. It’s clear with your recent videos that this is one of the (many) things that has attracted so many viewers and subscribers.
It's also great to see the ripple effect of your earlier videos blowing up in views as well - they were always quality videos and just needed the exposure to take off. As you probably know, I honestly have no connection to van life and I wouldn’t say I am in your target audience. (I have no idea why KZbin initially recommended your first videos to me but I am glad they did.) However, I have enjoyed watching your videos and I have always been wishing that you go big with your channel (I have liked and watched all your videos from start to finish. I made an effort to comment on your earlier videos at the beginning whenever there weren’t comments just to help the KZbin algorithm but you obviously don’t need that anymore 😉) I have learnt a lot from your videos and gained some new perspectives on life. 

 I wish you all the best! I believe your channel will continue expanding and the best is yet to come. I’ll certainly keep watching and leaving comments. I remember and loved one of your first replies to me about how you wanted to improve a little bit each time - I think that’s the key. I wish that your channel becomes so successful that you are able to earn a great income from it so you don’t have to work anymore and I believe it will happen eventually!! 🙏 - Amitesh

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Amitesh, you were my first subscriber and have supported and encouraged me from day 1 which I thank you for. I respect your privacy so I won't go into details but it amazes me that you are so different to me from an intellectual point view yet you still take time out from your busy schedule to comment, encourage and motivate me! Thank you so much my friend, Kev

[@amiteshdattamath]

​@@Re-CreatingKev Hi Kev, thanks so much for your kind message! Of course, I'm always happy to support you and I am proud to be the first subscriber to your channel. I also admire very much and it amazes me that you are balancing your KZbin channel with your day to day life because while you make it look easy, creating these videos definitely takes a lot of thought and time that the viewers don't necessarily see. I think regular uploads like what you are doing is something most channels struggle with. I'm glad that you are enjoying making these videos, which is the most important thing. :)

[@mrsmedlock5222]

So happy for you Kev. Home is where your heart is ❤. Sound is very clear. Dont worry about my personal reply. I know you wppreciate them. Love to Rupert. X

[@Re-CreatingKev]

😊 thank you

[@Russ453hgf]

I just wanted to commend you on all the new subscribers that youve gained in such a very short period of time, Kevin. It just goes to show that the interest is out there and that people warm to you personally .You've done it all yourself and you are gaining traction now. You've now got a decent base to go forward . Well done, Kev, mate.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thank you for your kind words

[@Russ453hgf]

@@Re-CreatingKev Thank you, Kev.

Hi watching from Qld Australia

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Welcome and thanks for watching, Kev

[@joline2730]

Hi 👋 glad you got another year on an MoT and the repairs are looking good - albeit expensive 😠 If you read all the comments, then you at least have the time to give a 'heart' or a 'like' (thumbs up) to every one of them, since that is just one click, right. That will be enough of an acknowledgement from you 👍

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks for the tips!

[@inthailandtillidie2065]

Great Channel, nice to see you smash through 1,000 subs , like you say you read all the comments, just click on the like button only takes a second, great for your channel, subscribers know you have seen comments, and KZbin love it ...thanks for sharing 👍👍👍

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Legend!

[@richiek2155]

Good video mt least u van sorted what part of the country you from

[@Re-CreatingKev]

West Sussex 😜

[@joline2730]

​@@Re-CreatingKev I'm pretty sure Mel's "Big Van Small World" is in that area - go give him a watch 👍👍💯

[@yaminthegrey]

Hari OM It's always a relief when the pass comes through, eh?! The mic working okay. As Joline says, at least heart the comments (assuming you like 'em!) so that folk know you read them. It's quick and easy. That way, they drop off your comments listing in the dashboard, too, so as not to overwhelm. Thumbs up won't remove them from that list. Watch for the regular commenters with proper responses - those are the ones to make effort in replying, if indeed a reply seems appropriate - not everything needs it. You are bound to get lots of 'empty' comments/naysayers/trolls as you build numbers; you can ignore them, remove them, and/or block them. Up to you develop your own policy about what you want to see on your channel. YAM xx

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Great advice, thank you

[@susankuhn5030]

No need to answer the comments. Please just carry on making them.
