    I absolutely love William… he’s such a sweet little boy… he’s a credit to your parenting Vic… My son is now over 40 so the toddler I knew has gone. I miss little children as they are so funny and it’s great to be part of “their world and their language”. Christmas mornings when my son was a toddler were the best days of my life… make the most of every minute with him Vic because one day you’ll turn around and he’ll be gone… 😊

      Funny you say the 'toddler' your knew has gone, I thought the same. My 37yo didn't like me telling him he was being fixated and not listening to what his sister and I were saying, so he stormed off and (he uses one of the lounge rooms as his tv/computer room) tried to slam is door but it is just an upright freezer box made into a room divider. I feel the toddler is still well and truly still there. Then again I can only put the blame on ancestry as my dad said he would would never grow up (kept saying it till he passed at 70) and I say it all the time too. I never want to grow up, we all need to be a bit childish every now and then.

    Good to see some silk weaving. My grandmother worked in a Cheshire silk mill. Thank you.

    I've been following your videos for a while, but this one was a bit special for me as I lived in Macclesfield for over 40 years and recognise a lot of the street views. I also know Ron Smart and am delighted that you got him to print your tea towels. I used to work as a volunteer at the Silk Museum restoring and operating weaving looms and other machinery - you must make a visit there (mention my name but it won't get you anything). I look forward to seeing your cafe boat one day - but now we live in France and it's a long way to go - even for your lemon drizzle cake. Maybe one day.

    I think living in the village and doing your baking there then selling from Holly seems to be the best of both worlds for you. William is growing like a weed. Loved the clearness in his voice when he said, "chocolate cake". Thank you for sharing and have a Blessed day.

  • @frankquevedo3453
    @frankquevedo3453 Год назад +1

    And that's why I Really enjoy watching you three. Even if you're not full time on the 'cut.' And I've enjoyed your cook book too!

  • @R0ckMum
    @R0ckMum Год назад +23

    As long as you're productive, making money, saving money, William's happy, then you're winning. That was a long day it's amazing how much you get done on no sleep. It's slso amazing you still have the energy and inspiration to make new things for Holly, I'm guessing you might do oven gloves and aprons if you can afford it. Keep going, you're crushing it. Colombian coffee is the BEST.

    I have been to London and parts of England 8 times. I love the decorative tea towels from the shops around there they remind me of all the fun things we’ve done there. I bring them back home to California with me and hang them on my garage walls. I love your tea towel it is so bright and colorful and I sure enjoyed seeing how they are made. I have 8 different tea towels hanging on my garage wall so I can see them daily when I drive my car inside. My garage walls are finished and painted so they look wonderful on the walls. I hope you are going to sell the tea towels so I can purchase one and hang it on my wall so it will reminds me of one of my favorite Utube channels.❤

    Chicken flavoured crisps in a sandwich with a smidge of salad scream is the best snack alive so as you can tell I am fully behind the sandwich crisps movement 😄 the tea towels look amazing and the fact you are having them done so local to you makes them so much more special ❤

  • @sweetpeainfrance6729
    @sweetpeainfrance6729 Год назад +1

    I LOVE that the decisions you have made are all working out so well.... when can I order a tea towel?????? or more???
    I LOVE the fact that you are perhaps near to where you were born... and in the industrial regions where resurgence of trade and mechanisation is bringing new life to modern lifestyles. HOW amazing to be using " the only silk printer " in UK.... is that a correct fact. Maybe I misheard.
    William is such a treasure...noticing observing using language and battling to sleep when it is necessary to do so... the mind needs to rest and re set... gets harder as we age....
    Save what you can and grow the LOVE you give to Holly and all who eat cakes from her......... I wish I could be visiting!

    I love the tea-towel. I'd love to buy one,or even two. This summer of 2023 I made several trips up north and passed through Macclesfield on the train and it loked so interesting i wanted to get off and explore the place so if I get a chance next summer I will visit that town and - I hope buy a coffee and cake at your Holly cafe boat depending where you are of course. DONT do any decorating. Your instinct is right. The house is comfy,warm and it makes sense to be there but it's not YOUR PLACE. You're both too young,you haven't got to that place yet. Enjoy the life of adventure while you can. And you probably know that adventure is inward as well as outward. Once you've painted,wallpapered,bought furniture,designed your "look" you're committed! That'll be great for you in maybe 10 years time,but not yet.

    Your channel is, I believe, the most pleasant one of the many which I watch. Part of what makes it so pleasant is Jo, who is definitely the loveliest of the many ladies who I meet on RUclips. The other part is your family tenure or dynamic (I’m not sure how best to express it).
