I confess I must have seen this video about twenty times already. I just find it endearing that Barry came to "save" Oisin. I thought it was such a "démodé" trick between friends who live close to each other. Then this friend "suddenly" drops by when you're cleaning and you're mother is forced to let you go because it's awkward that she's letting her daughter scrub the floor in the presence of her friend. Barry is smart though, he gets an ice cream out of the deal 😆😆🤣🤣

Gosh, I love a good plot twist! True story, I was just sitting with my parents on their back porch and we were listening to music.

Our house backs up to a busy street, one neighbor is out of town for the week and the other is a nurse and works graveyard. My response was “Oh, mom!

Anne and Oisin are my favourite pair, oh, and Barry too of course. That Barry, he’s a very deep character. Very complex. Method Acting, on display, at its best every time Anne shows up. I often wonder, once Anne is dressed, made-up and ready for her scenes, does Anne become Anne straight away, and for how long afterwards does Anne hang around? I imagine that Anne hangs around for quite a while after she’s done with her days filming. Ha ha thanks for sharing this video, I really hope that you make it to Australia one day. If Oisin’s allowed out of school, then hopefully Anne will bring him along too. And if it’s school holidays, then perhaps Barry could make the journey with them. Don’t worry Barry, we have those same Magnum limited edition ice creams here in Australia. I’m happy to buy you and Oisin one when you arrive. I’m going to get one right now.

I can’t wait for the bloopers on Patreon from this one! 😄

Nice to see Foil Arms and Hog outside their natural habitat

[@SamFAHntha]

Even a lawn is a stage I learned just now.

[@Vixin24]

Oh god the wildflowers vs weeds bit is something I heard all my childhood haha. Always loved the daisies that grew in the garden but my mum always insisted on getting rid of them so she'd have a nice green lawn. Even though I always thought they looked nice.

They need to hit 1 million immediately. This is a strict order from Oisin's mother.

[@SamFAHntha]

Anne has a ironic username 🤭

[@SamFAHntha]

Sorry, just the thought of Anne naming her channel 'entertainment and fun" was funny to me 😂

[@annalieff-saxby568]

Just back from the allotment. My sympathies are all with Anne.

[@fish8128]

Just seen the title and can already relate!!

[@SamFAHntha]

Oh geez, and your first comment too! So that was super quick!

[@karendaley3184]

Hooting with laughter! You'll listen to the birds. Nature's music. Sooo spot on.

[@andrea8764]

Hilarious to know that both Mrs Geraghty and Anne Flanagan are fans of the titilatus! Thanks for the livestream callback, boys!😂

[@cheryl5218]

That was hysterical. 🤣 You guys really know how to be funny. Barry always shows up to make it even funnier. The look on his face 😂

[@foilarmsandhog]

Thanks Cheryl!

You call that synchronicity or something. I'm currently reading "The Garden Lover's Guide to Ireland" because I'm working on the project about trees in St Petersburg with a French artist who introduced me to the "Irish Tree Alphabet" project by an Irish artist in New York. And now you guys.))) Ironically, when I was a kid many of my summers were ruined like Oisin's. Poetic justice.

[@foilarmsandhog]

Wow, what a journey you're on!

[@cupguin]

I spend the early morning in my very first garden these days and including my "wildflowers everywhere!" approach it's amazing how much of my garden reflects childhood gardening trauma or relies on skills I picked up during my childhood. Like bringing my bloody phone with things to bloody listen to because if I'm going to be working all day in the garden I want something to bloody listen to.
