Your upbeat presentation is appreciated. One suggestion for Annie: a wee bit less nervous laughter when nothing particularly funny is being said.

Sitting here in NH watching your past videos (that the all-knowing RUclips algorithm served up to me) and see that you met here in NH. I've got to ask ... Of all the camps in all the world how on earth did a girl from Georgia and a boy from Scotland wind up in Piermont, NH?

Hi guys great video, glad you like us. This is for the shopping video, you can get American bacon here, just look for " streaky" bacon, if Tesco's is the closest shop I get it but you could get some things cheaper in other stores, also Costco br aware it is not like the American, version some things are the same and some are not, this from videos I've seen. Christmas should be fun, enjoy the " crackers" and the rest, have a great time, till next time bye.

I just started watching your videos. I love your sense of humor. You appear to get each other's jokes. In my opinion, that's vital for a long term commitment. I have been married for 33 years and the thing that attracted me to my husband (besides his good looks ;) ) was his sense of humor. For the long haul our shared sense of humor has gotten us through a lot of life stuff. !!Keep the videos coming. I love them!

Exactly I once lived in an old tiny trailer and by golly I made that place my little palace. ❤

Good video 👍. However, the average US salary is considerably higher than in the UK, so it probably balances out that way. Having said that, on several trips to the US, 10 to 20 years ago, I always felt most things were cheaper than in Britain, so this is surprising.

love Annie’s laugh

Great to see everyone settling in. My wife and I lived in East Lothian, Haddington specifically, while I was attending school 5 years ago. We are in the midst of planning a return move this coming summer hopefully. This time it will be based on a skilled worker visa instead of a student visa, which is a bit more difficult, but fingers crossed we make it back 🤞

There is no debate - it was even proved in court Jaffa cakes are a CAKE not a biscuit. The reason was down to tax (VAT I think) added to chocolate biscuits at one point in the past. McVities the makers of Jaffa cakes sucessfully claimed in court that their product was a cake and thus exempt from the tax at the time. Their proof was that when a biscuit is left out and goes stale they go soft, when a cake is left out and goes stale cake goes hard. Jaffa cakes go hard when stale thus was proven to be a cake.

I just enjoy that you are a nice couple.

I'm surprised, I always assume US would be cheaper. That's quite a small Tesco as well.

Hope my wife and I can make the move in the next 18 months but we're looking at the Netherlands. There's a huge fascist movement here in the States now, and our democracy is at stake. Half of us Americans hate each other now, and cant wait to get out of here.

I think ive worked out where in East Lothian 😜 originally from South Lanarkshire this area is amazing love it ❤ too snobby to go back lol

We have been to Scotland twice - so beautiful! We loved walking all over. And the history and castles so wonderful. We hope to visit again. We found food and eating out less expensive but gas almost twice the price of our area in the US. We also went to thrift stores there and were amazed at the variety. True the rollercoaster prices! Love your videos!

Try a roll and fritter if you find yourself around Glasgow. I don’t think they have them on east coast.

Why are so many of those prices so much higher in the US? I know there are much larger distances for commercially grown food to be transported to market, but then there are also the economies of scale. Given the huge size of many states and counties within them, is the local food movement a thing? I was surprised to see things like avocados cheaper in the UK, which we cannot grow locally and have to import then. On the other hand avos are grown in the sunnier states in the US. Surely that would make them cheaper in the US? A US family's weekly food/grocery shop must be crazy prices.

I’d put hp on the egg. The pie looked a bit dry. Try them from the butcher. They should be juicy. Love them with canned plum tomatoes with a dash of white pepper and Lea & Perrins.

Back in 2016 did a 16 day England and Scotland tour. Loved the Great Lakes region of England, but was overwhelmed with Scotland. Loved Edinburgh, St. Andrews, Isle of Skye, Inverness, Loch Lodmond area and Glasgow. Got welcomed to Scotland in Gretna Green with Bag Pipes player!!

Also in the UK the price you see is the price you pay at the till. No additional taxes

Just wondering - what considerations led you to choose East Lothian to live in? Is that where Zach was raised? I grew up in North Berwick, although I've lived in Edinburgh for 40 years, and I consider East Lothian one of the finest areas in the country. It has everything you could wish for, including proximity to Edinburgh for things you can't find locally.

Stop & Shop in Massachusetts has the scanners but they are always malfunctioning.

Nice to see you seem to get on so well, Some of the differences are because of transport, taxes, some about greed, I assumed grapes in America would be cheaper, as they can be easily grown there, Very surprised about those cheaper in the uk as they usually have higher overheads

You're a lovely couple, and so happy and content all the best settling in🎉❤😊

interesting I went "hmm strawbs seems high". looked at morrisons and they had a banner saying they've got reduced stock due to 'issues'. aldi .1.69 for 227g...

Good video comparison, how do UK average wages stack up against US average wages? That may contribute to some of the difference.

A yard is either paved or a working / industrial space - builder's yard, farm yard etc.

Isle of Skye, Kyle of Loch Alsh is my favourite. Also the Western Isles-Stornoway in Isle of Harris and Lewis is very picturesque. Fort William and Oban also beautiful

The children will have such a magical life!

I'm sure they could be cheaper, but where is the dollar amount? We don't live on pence/pound here in the US. I'm sure it is closer to the same than what you have stated, but don't know🤷‍♀️ seems like maybe you don't want people to know the actual price?!

The bit you don’t calculate in is the difference in wages to find out who really is cheaper.

Just found your channel. I thought you were in EL when I saw the beach (the mussel shells gave it away) and I’m a little further down the coast where we have some great beaches that the kids love. Look forward to watching more of your travels about Bonnie Scotland.

Firstly, Annie your hair is looking beautiful 😊 It’s so refreshing to watch people just being honest and humorous. It’s very much appreciated. Does watching the adverts help earn you money? If so more than happy to let them roll. Great sponsored product endorsement! Love the mix and match video styles and glad to see family comes first. 😊

Sorry, the choice in the UK is limited. That is what you get when you erect barriers between the source of your food, EU, and your consumers UK. Prices rise and availability is reduced.

Are you sure that you are Scottish as you sound actually like a Yank. I have been to many parts of Scotland from Gretna Green to Aberdeen including Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stranraer, Dundee, Aviemore and the Cairngorms which are my favourite place in Scotland, Motherwell, Loch Ness, Ayr, etc etc. 💂‍♂️💂‍♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇮🇪🇮🇪

Genuinely surprised

We did Paris theme parks fun and fun last year. Enjoy!

We became totally addicted to Tunnock's teacakes on our recent trip to Scotland 😁

Wow I’m surprised by the big differences, but when we were in New York we were shocked by the high price of everything, including food. I thought in America that the farming lobby would have been more powerful. I have heard that more chemicals are permitted in America and meat/milk/egg production is more intensive. When possible we try to buy products that are free range and organic 👍

What about mushy peas?

Thank you! I've friends in Somerset & always wanted to live in Scotland. I'll be retiring in another year & have been considering how to go about a move! You two are a great resource....

Are the kids automatically granted UK citizenship as a result of having a UK dad?

Scotland sounds so much like the Pacific Northwest of the USA in so many ways, at least weather wise. As soon as the sun comes out, everyone is outdoors.

Gym looks great. Will you be installing any mirrors?

Stop and Shop in the Northeast U.S. has hand held scanners. They also have a mobile app that can be used to scan items as you shop.

Undershirt is the t-shirt worn by men underneath a regular shirt.

I think you made the right decision to move to Scotland. I live in NH and love it, but I think I'd rather be in Scotland right now.

I work with someone from Scotland who I can't even understand most times. Your accent is very "Americanized" and I can understand completely.

This is a great video. At my age, I know I will not move to Scotland, but it is my favorite fantasy

Beautiful solitude! You took the roads less traveled, and it was delightful.
