Here we go again! It's another Tuesday during the Wales level 4 lockdown, January 2021. There's more online college for Izzy and more learning and experimentation for Imo in today's daily lockdown vlog.
I'm trying out my Rode Wireless external mic with the Sony FDR AX43 for the first time today:
Rode Wireless Go: amzn.to/3bSlWK5
Sony FDR AX43: amzn.to/390nzDN
The cooking shots were done on the: amzn.to/3o0gash
just using its onboard/built-in mic
The BlueTooth headphones from IB: amzn.to/3sHncph
The traditional Irish hornpipe I played on the flute was the Harp and Shamrock Hornpipe.
Sub count at time of posting: 2755
IB = Invisible Boyfriend. He's my boyfriend. He's real, but he's camera shy so you never see him in the vlogs though you will hear him. He is heard but not seen.
This is a very similar stove-top espresso pot to the one I use: amzn.to/3goBllG
My electric coffee grinder: amzn.to/2VHZlXt

I'm Imo and she's Izzy. We're a UK mother and daughter vlogging combo that loves to get out and about and exploring South Wales and beyond.
We're a formerly homeschooling/home-educating family of two based in the UK dealing with the daily challenges of managing Izzy's severe, chronic eczema and her education. Our resourcefulness is tested on a daily basis, but we'd love to share our little triumphs and discoveries with you as we go along.
Imo is a flautist/flutist (flute player), and these vlogs will often take you behind the scenes of the life of a professional folk musician. Stand by for bits and bobs of live folk music and dance as they pop up in our day-to-day lives.
These videos will not generally feature recorded background music, making them extra suitable for people who aren't keen on pop music!
Follow this channel for occasional tips on caring for eczema, content relating to the flute, travel (particularly to Lisbon, Portugal), homeschooling and homeschool mom stuff, folk musician lifestyle, and to see what life is like for this little family in our corner of South Wales in the UK.

Izzy's monologue to test the mike? Priceless
I know! Where on Earth did that all come from? She'd be great in sound checks for checking all the vocal mics are working.
You guys be strong, it's difficult, adjusting to the lockdowns, but it's necessary to save lives! 💗💗💗💗💖
Mmm. It's finite and that's what's getting us through. We've been in this latest hard lockdown since December 20th I think... I haven't been in a shop since before Christmas. We're very much looking forward to the shining light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks, Miriam. x
How cute you both are ♥️ specially the part where you guys were doing mic testing and Izzy was cutely talking . Lovely Vlog , stay safe in UK . Love from Dubai Moms 🤗
Aw, thank you so much!
How lovely that you have Izzy with you during the lockdowns. She has grown so much in just the time I have been subscribed. I also noticed you have changed your channel icon to what I believe is a portrait of you and Izzy created by Izzy. Very cute!
Yes! Izzy made that for me for a Christmas present and I forgot all about it until now! Whoopsadaisy. Yes - I bet if I hadn't had another human being to support during this time I would have had a very different experience. Doing things for others, in my experience, is a very big boost to my own personal morale.
@@PlanetImo I couldn't agree with you more.
Lol Izzy is so random!!🤣 but hilarious!
She apparently has a talent for random...
Also, love the sound from the microphone!!!! 🎙️
I was delighted with how well it worked with the flute, actually... I might try to work it into my live gigging set up - though I would need an extra but to plug in as it would have to be right next to my mouth or it would pick up too many other sounds.
I’m with Izzy on the high wasted jeans, it tucks everything in too bonus 😂😂
The audio is very nice. It is balanced and sounds good. Speaking of James Harriot, I just saw an advert for a new remake of "All Creatures Great and Small". It will be on my Public Broadcasting Stations (Like your BBC), but I suspect it is a BBC production. That was a particularly lovely tune.
Oh wow! I wonder what that will be like? I loved the original version when I was little and watched it with my mother in the evenings. It was like a special treat.
That mic works great. I have serious not been outside for 6 days. I am so sick of lockdown.
It's easy to just want to stay in, I find, with not being able to meet with others or use any public amenities. And what with the winter weather... arggh! Ha ha! Thanks, guys. Keep well.
Lovely! I'll see you both tomorrow!!🤣
I'll see you later! x
I have been watching the old All Creatures Great and Small so funny you mentioned it. The other day my drain was slow, then I looked and a bit of paper was blocking it, nothing serious, yay! You are a perfectionist to get the blogging sound just right but it will save you much time for editing then. That was grand idea for pancakes, a true quick bread.
I used to LOVE 'James Herriot', as I used to call that show when I was a little girl, watching with mother in the evenings. I ought to look back and find one to watch to see how the world has changed since then.
Lol. Playing with toys!
I was! Yippee!
listening to you whilst I do my washing up!
That's appropriate cos this vlog contains washing up. We can wash up together!
Very creative pancake art. We have tried it with pancakes in the past. Mainly making abstract shapes!
This was a total accident!
can't beat a bit of a jollopy thing....xx
🤣 It kind of sounds ridiculous when other people say this! I forget how daft my expressions are sometimes. Well observed, Mary and thanks so much for watching. x
Wow, that’s a serious vlogging set-up!! I’ve never heard eggplant called aubergine before. I learned something new. I love the new profile picture!
I know - it's getting out of hand! 🤣 My GoPro 9 seems to have stopped glitching since I manually updated the firmware with the most recent December update directly onto the micro SD in the laptop and then transferred it to the camera. It is SOOO much more convenient than the mega set up.
@@PlanetImo Yay, I’m so glad you fixed it! Its good to know the problem can be solved by updating the firmware. I still haven’t used my new GoPro yet. 😩
I did a plain tomato soup with chopped onions, chopped cabbage, and cubed plain tofu. I have been thinking about adding chopped zucchini into it, but decided on arugula and cilantro for a bit of added flavour. Now I've seen your video, that cheesy pancake is not a bad idea. Thank you for sharing! Keep safe, my friend - from Quebec, Canada!
Sounds great! 😋 Thanks, Diana. x
I'm the same with chopping. Chopping is chopping. As long as its chopped!
I'm glad it's not just me then!
@@PlanetImo, it's not just y'all. I plead guilty.
Just finished watching the video of your ferry crossing to France.. hahahaha.. Oh my goodness.. those singing voices.. lol
Looked like you had a fun trip across though.
Have you tried scrambled tofu with vegan chicken style seasoning? It's like having a scrambled egg. Using firm tofu.
Omg..... influenced by Patrick Moore.......... hahahahahaha Actually that's my dad's style too. lol
Izzy...... how about a video of you giving your mom a makeover... the skies the limit... your choices.. and mom is the model. Great idea for an upcoming video Imo..
Thanks for sharing... see you soon.. byeeeee 💟
No it's not just you..... I do the same with the washing up sponge.
🤣
Oh my goodness the hidden dish cloth I've got a bright yellow sponge now easy to see👍
Ah now that's a good idea!
@@PlanetImo I get the big ones from b&ms only a £1.00 and you can put them in the washer.
That pancake image looked to me like the aliens from the Aliens movie series. ;)
Missed this one, liking the new camera set up, looking very professional!😎👍💕
Thanks 👍 It's taking me a LOT of getting used to!!! I think I'm almost there now. I've gone right round the houses with the Rode Wireless and today I've gone back to filming with the inbuilt. I hadn't realised there were a variety of settings for that too - it was doing some weird 5-direction surround sound thing which was causing a bit of a phasey effect when I was speaking from behind the camera and facing a wall. I've switched to plain 2 sided stereo today so I really do hope that will fix it as it really is a pain having to turn all the extra things on and off and worry about them being charged up etc. Take two things out vlogging? No - I just want to vlog-and-go! (This is my wash-and-go ref)
So glad you are using the Rode Wireless Mic. It actually has quite an amazing battery life. I have only had a problem once and it was because I didn't plug it in completely. You will love it. It was a Game changer for me. I didn't have to obsess with the mic which freed up my creativity.
I need to check how long it lasts for... I'm loving it but I do hope I quickly get used to all the things to switch on and off. It won't be any good for when I'm out and about, filming my day, but I have the GoPro 9 for that, and it's actually behaving itself at the moment. If it keeps behaving I'll make my final tech purchase for now and get the media mod attachment which included a better mic attached, with windshield, but also an external mic socket, so I'd also have to option of using the Rode with that too. The freedom's gonna be amazing - so far I've had to speak right up close to the camera every time!
@@PlanetImo Mine lasts for almost an entire day of out and about filming. What are you shutting on and off? Is that on your camera?
Flip monitor open (also that turns the camera on), light on at appropriate brightness, mic on and receiver on. I’m getting quicker at it.
Haha You are so much like David with the tech haha 😆
Ooh, excellent new profile picture! Also, that food looked very tasty. I love the taste of aubergine but not the feel.....arrrgh, can't remember if any of your subscribers put aubergine on the list of things that "go through" them, but I am officially asking for it to be on next year's list! 😁
Oh wow! Yes, I can imagine that - it's kind of squeaky!
My granddaughter is 16 so finding her own style. 70s high waisted velvet at the mo. .. you better shake you style up IMO you’ve got a fashion conscious teen chasing your tail. 😂😂😂 thanks for the recipe. Very yum x
🤣 Oh no!
You mic worked great! You are a real Techy with these camera stuff. Your meal looked delicious. Was the pancake gluten free? I would eat the cheese inside. Lizzy doesn't realize that there is a warmth that comes with looking like your own comfortable self. I think you look great! Hugs~
I wish I was more techy than I am - I get so overwhelmed with new stuff, but I'm just trying to spread out all the learning so I can learn a little bit at a time. The pancake was not gluten free - It just contained ordinary flour. Thanks, Cat-Anne. x
Hello! I'm (hopefully) going into college this year after being homeschooled since preschool. If you would be comfortable doing so could Izzy maybe do a video of what the transition was like, if she found it hard with it being such a big change etc? Thank you !!
Corben watches Collins key him and his brother do pancake art in some videos and it’s amazing
I like your new profile picture
it looks really pretty
Oh thanks! Izzy made that. I was wondering if it was showing, because on my laptop, the old one is still showing, so now I know it has worked. Yey! Thanks for letting me know and thanks for watching. ~ Imo
No, I lose my dishcloth from time to time! Do you know Gouda is pronounced Xhowda? I’ve been to the town (in an earlier life).
Someone commented that they have a bright yellow dishcloth so they can't lose it. :¬)
Great vlog guys.
Thanks so much!
I do the same with the washing g up sponges haha
You say "washing up" liquid, sponge, etc. We say dish liquid, dish sponge, et cetera... :)
@@faelismaegnus my friend from the US thinks it’s funny we call a cooker a cooker as she calls it a stove haha
@@theshaulfamily, wut, lol?
@@theshaulfamily, well, my mom has a rice cooker. lol
Izzy is such a lovely young lady :)
Smashing vlogs thank you very much
Thanks so much and thanks for watching.
I like your new profile picture is that an Izzy creation?
It is indeed, yes, thanks Susan.
I love you so much IMO and Izzy ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍🤎❤️🔥❤️🩹❣️💕💞💓💗💖💘💝 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Aww thanks, Shay.
Amp up your look 🤣🤣🤦♀️
I know! Who'd have thought?
I have to agree with Izzy spend time on yourself.😊 the only thing is no one see you on lockdown... That's the only thing.
Yeah! I've been putting off dying my hair all this time.
Like 👍👍👍
Thank you 👍
Hipsters because I have a belly piercing. But I noticed all the young girls now are back in high waist Jean's.
Ahhh! I didn't know that!
Me too I have one in my belly and can't do with anything high waisted.😊
@@juliepearson1685 I had to get rid of a lot of trousers after I had that done 🤣🤦♀️
Hello
Hellooooo!
