My Sunday morning is in bits , no French Countryside Life , no French Ear Trumpet .... be on the red wine early today 🍷🍷🍷
Thanks Les. Good things come to those who wait. 😀👍🏼 We'll make sure that you're properly entertained next week. 🤪
@@FrenchCountrysideLife I could catch up on Dan , but how many bits of 5"×2" can a person look at 😁😁😁😁
What, are you doing? Holy smoke! Pass on that.😂 Hows Charlie getting on? Being a good boy we hope.
All I can say is what a pair of idiots! 😂
Great to know that I have so much in common with the great Paul Simon ...... I've never been to fucking Denver either
Thanks Les. Always a brilliant comment from you. Love it. 😀👍🏼
Thank you for sharing so many happy memories god bless ❤
Thanks Jane. It's a video that I didn't want to make but I'm glad that I did. 🙏🏼
I was seriously concerned for your well being. I've heard of these kinds of challenges, here in the US, giving men heart attacks. I was holding my breath until I realized... 'well he had to edit and download the video so he made it through' 😂🤣It still made my blood pressure go up for you! You were red as a beet and totally threw all video protocol out the window. I knew you were hurting. How long did it take to get back to 100% normal?
Thanks Shelly. Why do you think it's mostly men that do these challenges ? The worst bit was getting the chilli on my face and in my eye. 😀 There were two days of Johnny Cash ( Ring of Fire ) and about four days of a dodgy stomach.🥵
@@FrenchCountrysideLife wow... I had a feeling it was going to take some time to recoup! Don't ever do that again. 😉☺️
I can neither confirm nor deny that we will be having a rematch, just with less nuts. 😀
@@FrenchCountrysideLife 🙏🥵
You are mad Colin. Take care mate. Cheers, Huw
Thanks Huw. Life's not a rehearsal. 👍🏼
We mowed to France, had great experiences, learnt a lot and decided to come home when our grandchildren came along. We never regretted living there and have not regretted coming home either. It’s been an interesting life.
Thanks Gwyneth. If you can live your life and say that you've not regretted the major decisions then that's a life well spent. 👍🏼
ARE YOU GUYS CRAZZZZY!!! bahahahaaaa
Thanks Effie. I was surprised and pleased that Robbie tapped out when he did. There was no way I was giving in first.
So funny 🤣 I’ve seen lots of grown men like yourselves in tears trying to do similar challenges with chilli?….. ?.!?
Thanks Charmees. It was pretty tough. 🥵
Is there a fee to dump at the dechetterie, or appointment needed
Thanks Francis. We are quite lucky in that our local dechetterie are quite relaxed about the amount of rubbish we can dump. There's no appointment needed either. 👍🏼
OMG what the hell are you doing to yourselves , at our age the insides are getting worn out already....I would hate to be your toilet bowl once that lot goes through the system 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Charlie is growing up nicely , lovely dog mate ...thanks for laugh guys !!!!!!
Thanks Cam. It took two days to leave the system, so to speak. Charlie is settling down. Slowly....👍🏼
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣. My daughter-in-law loves hot foods. Going to share this with her. Thanks for the laughs! Made my day!!
Thanks Linda. I hope she enjoys it more than we did...😀
Sorry colin i know you both were suffering during your challenge but your face was absolutly hilarous . You and Rob are absolutly crackers. Well done though impressive. 😂😂
Thanks Denise. I think we're going to put ourselves through it all again soon. 😀
Hi Colin will be watching and knowing you two your watchers will end up howling with laughter whilst shouting encouragement via the TV and sending my dogs into manic barking mode .good luck but be careful.xx @@FrenchCountrysideLife
OMG Colin...That was painful to watch you two. My Lord. Shiver. I thought you were gonna die for a second. Don't ever do this again Brother. Sheesh. My quote for today Colin is this..."Never torture yourself unpurpose" Haaaa. On a better note, Charlie is really coming along. He's going to be such a big boy before you know it. Great landscape shots by the way. What a beautiful place. Thanks See you next time.
Thanks Linda. This is the second time that I've done the Deathnut challenge. The last time I did it it was 2.0 though. This was on another level. Charlie seems to be getting bigger overnight every day. He's already 50% heavier than when we got him. 👍🏼
That was hard to watch. You’re both bonkers! Just say no. Nice try though! 😮
Thanks Lisa. We might try a rematch at some point. 👍🏼
CRAZY!! 🔥 I could feel the heat through my laptop.
Thanks Glen, I felt the heat again this morning.......😀
@@FrenchCountrysideLife I'm sure you can! 🤪🔥
@@FrenchCountrysideLifeI did wonder…🔥
I couldn't stop laughing. Great to see charlie out and about. Love the outtake as well. Nice to see you tapped out last - good skills Aj
Thanks Andy. The outtake was just so good I had to leave it in. I think if Robbie hadn't tapped out I would have carried on. Maybe...🤔
As soon as I heard the words "Carolina Reaper" I knew it was not good , I grew these peppers 2 years ago , nearly wiped out the entire street , they are DEADLY
Thanks Les. All those nuts are on another level. Just crazy hot. 🥵
You pair of silly barstools....did you put the germoline in the fridge
Thanks Darryl. I checked the small print on the box of Germoline and apparently the resulting condition is not within its remit. 😀
You're both bonkers!!! 😂
Thanks SuzieQ. Certifiably. 😀
Having grown up eating hot foods (my Mexican dad loved all things REALLY spicy) how did your digestive tract handle the 🔥on the other end? LOL! Asking for a friend. 😆
Thanks Dolores. Robbie said he was going to put the wet wipes in the fridge. Good call. 😀
@@FrenchCountrysideLife 🤣
well done Colin x hope you didnt have a curry for your tea x
Thanks Susan. I believe that Robbie had a Vindaloo last night. He's a lunatic. 😀
This does deserve a thumbs up. Maybe two!!
Thanks Diana. Much appreciated. 👍🏼👍🏼
Love is a burning thing and it makes a fiery ring bound by wild desire i fell in to a ring of fire i fell into a burning ring of fire i went down down down and the flames went higher and it burns burns burns the ring of fire HA HA HA
Thanks Budo & Tracy. There was certainly a ring of fire this morning. 🌅
Did you go to the lakes le Martin pecheur restaurants both sides
Thanks Doug. We've not been to the French owned restaurant yet. 👍🏼
Omg such pain. I wouldn't have got past first one. I am just thinking how long it took you to fully recover.
Thanks Lisa. Well, it's Sunday evening and I'm still feeling the effects. 😀
Good effort Colin, it was a pleasure sharing hot nuts with you Few questions / observations What was the creature you pointed out? It was so tiny how did you find it in the first place? Nice drone footage Quote of the week - it won’t stop burning
Thanks Robbie. The bug was an Iberian Firefly. I found it because It was emitting a green light from its body. When I filmed it I'd had a few G&T's so not the best filming in the world. 👍🏼
@@FrenchCountrysideLife that explains ALOT lol
Watched on Robbie's channel the death nut challenge, mad how hot those nuts were.
Thanks John. It was just crazy. 🤪
well done for giving it a try, think ill say no...lol cheers
Looking for volunteers. Fancy it ?
3rds the one with the hairy chest
Manly. 👍🏼
You pair of crazy buggers taking on the Deathnut Challenge, braver than me.
I think stupid more like lol
Thanks Phil. I don't know what we were thinking. 🤔
1st😂
Well done, Huw. 🏆
The cost of living in the UK is outrageous and the NHS is just awful. Racism exists everywhere…after the rioting in the UK recently one can observe there is racism there as well unfortunately. I’ve been living in France for 34 years and love it
Thanks Marianne. It was the best thing we could have done. Though it was more luck than judgement. 👍🏼
I just wanted to say hello again, Colin, and tell you how great it was to meet you and Rob yesterday. You are just as you as come across in the vlog, kind, mellow, generous and funny. We’ll be contacting you when we get back to France at the beginning of the year. Thank you again for your time and warm welcome.
Thanks Sandy. It was so lovely to meet you the other day. What did your husband say when you got back and what did you think of your appearance on Robs video ? 😀 Safe travels back to California and I look forward to seeing you again on your return. 👍🏼
Cracking Job on the bracket for the gate.
Thanks John. Much appreciated. 👍🏼
Another great video! The first year of having a puppy is wonderful and hard work. You have to teach them the rules of the road. But hard work pays off and you’ll have such a great companion who is well behaved.
Thanks Diana. Charlie is learning something new every day. He does, however, want to put everything in his mouth at the moment. 😀
Brilliant idea for the gate catcher. You are such a great problem solver Colin. Glad Andy saved the day again for you. Nice to have talented friends to be able to help a guy out. Problems solved. Whew!. Charlie is looking great. Handsome fella he is. Another one for the books Sir. Well done. Best to Jane as well. Give little Charlie a squeeze for me.
Thanks Linda. Andy is a Godsend. I don't know what I'd do without him. Charlie is getting larger everyday. I wonder whether we got a Mastiff by mistake. 😀
@@FrenchCountrysideLife 😂
Andy is a great pal! Glad the electrical is sorted. 🙂 Cheers-
Thanks Glen. I'm so lucky to have Andy as a friend. 👍🏼
@@FrenchCountrysideLife Indeed. 🙌
Saw the same catch for a gate on a RUclips short the other day and was surprised to see it again today! Charlie is twice the size since his last appearance. Home maintenance is so important wish Andy was my neighbor smart and easy on the eyes. Did I say that out loud?!
Thanks Dolores. I saw the original design on Pinterest and changed it slightly. Charlie is growing every day. Your secret is safe with me. 😀
I've had brains served to me in hospital. What's with these people who 'don't eat organs'? What a sad bunch.
I agree. We used to have stuffed hearts, steak & kidney pie and liver and bacon. Lovely. 👍🏻
Very clever mate!! And nice work on that plumbing too.
Thanks Gary. Much appreciated. 👍🏻
I love to see the two of you together. Two very nice gentlemen.
Thanks Mayvis. Much appreciated. 👍🏼
Nice job on the gates. The clip was such a clever design I think you should patent it. I see you went with some bigger hinges in the end. Lovely to see such an amazing sunset at the end with Charlie. You have a perfect location and I am so lucky to get to spend time there with you all. See you soon. Andy
Thanks Andy. The design of the clip was an evolution of a design I saw a while back. The bottom hinges take the majority of the weight so it was nice to repurpose the old ones. They were much sturdier. You'll always be welcome here. 👍🏼
Very nice video , amazing how watching someone who knows exactly what they are doing is so satisfying , but that's enough about AJ ....🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Les. I was thinking the exact same thing. 😀
good to see you manage to sort things out, love the gate lock, very simple but very cleaver,,, Charlie is looking great.. cheers mate
Thanks Grahame. I couldn't have done it without Andy. Charlie is doing well. 👍🏼
Morning Colin, Is there anything Andy doesn't know how to do or fix? The catch is brilliant. So simple but so effective. Are you going to make one out of the same steel for longevity, as in time the wooden one might perish? Take care mate. Cheer, Huw
Thanks Huw. I know, right. It's a good idea to make a catch from steel. I hadn't thought of that. 👍🏼
I love that Andy is so calm and never seems to get phased by anything. You work well as a team. Charlie is growing already!
Thanks Tina. Andy has the patience of a saint. 😀 Charlie seems to be getting bigger every day. 👍🏼
That catch is genius. Please tell me you invented it
Thanks Robbie. It was an evolution of something I saw a while ago. 👍🏼
@@FrenchCountrysideLife a great effort mate
2nd, and as you said Robbie tat's the best
Close but no cigar. 😀👍🏻🥈
