    I thought you might like some more background on why there are defibrillators in phone boxes in the uk.
    It’s because the locations are already central to villages, already undercover and protected, unused, and already connected to power!
    Defibrillators only need trickle charge once charged, so BT actually provides power to these locations free of charge as a charitable donation.
    All you have to do is ‘adopt’ a phone box and get a defibrillator (usually a community effort). BT will keep it running and gift the space!
    Kind of cool :)
    So here for the Canada series, my favourite place in the world. Happy Christmas guys :)

      That is really cool re defibrillators and of course readily available to the public in the event that they are needed! Merry Christmas and Have a Happy New Year! We have something called Public Access Defibrillator Program with Apps to tell you where they are but honestly, they are available all over the place…malls, golf course, gyms and fitness centres, ski hills, and private homes as well! I still like your experience of having them in the telephone boxes!

    My best Xmas present. I was teaching my step son to ride motor bikes around our local quarry. I had a dog of a Honda XL185, so I brought a rough old Yamaha DT125 for my step son around October time and kept it a secret at my dad’s. Over the next months I re built it, sprayed it, re covered the seat and got new chino plastic for it. It looked mint. On Xmas day we went to mum and dads for dinner and popped to the toilet, but really went and dragged the DT out. We told my step son to get some cards out of our car and he just casually walked past the bike, never said a word. When we told him it was his he nearly collapsed. Best present ever was seeing his face.
    Happy Xmas 🌨️🌨️

    Favourite Christmas present - a Black and Decker electric drill, when I was 10 years old in 1976. My folks were religious so naturally we went to chapel on Christmas Day to the service, and as kids you were allowed to take a present along. The kids were invited to the front of the chapel to show off their gifts, and imagine how proud I was with my drill. I distinctly remember being stood next to one of my cousins who was 11, and feeling so superior as I had an electric drill, not a kids toy. I still have the drill, not that it gets used any more, but it’s priceless to me. I now have a tool collection to rival John’s, and something must be subliminally telling me to hoard drills, as I have so many now I don’t actually know how many I have. 😀

    Hi John and Jess. Lucky you guys over in Canada at this time of year. Merry Christmas to you both and stay safe. Now the reason for this message. FOOD, as we all know there is nothing worse when you have had a long day and are knackered, than having to cook and do the dishes (I mention this after seeing the disaster that went in the bin lol). I always carry with me when I go traveling a few freeze dried meals, they are a great thing to have for the long days, and even more so for extra early starts. Just add hot water and eat your meal out of the bag it comes in. No washing up and a good meal to start or end the day. They are also great for long drives when heading North. Yes I get that they cost around £5 per meal, but they are great. As an ex military chap I have used these a lot during my career. I also used them when trucking, my Daughter used them during her DofE awards expeditions. Now most adventure shops in the UK sell them as do good old Amazon. Im sure someone over there will point you in the righ direction when looking for them. So can I suggest you look for these and carry a few in the van for both ease of cooking and also for emergency situations. Oh and no they dont taste like crap lol. Look forward to the next vid, Happy New Year xx Link to show you what I mean. www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=freeze+dried+meals+long+life&i=sports&rh=n%3A318949011%2Cp_123%3A252250%257C432716%257C569701&dc&crid=237A6HPLF65NL&qid=1735391992&rnid=91049098031&sprefix=Freeze+dried+meals%2Caps%2C91&ref=sr_nr_p_123_3&ds=v1%3AknHD%2B2gBPbwV4xm%2FbcssCq0Mom0D%2BqGCh%2FVXaNObOa8 Lots to choose from, wayfayrer are the cheapest and infact some of the best. Great choice of meals and puddings. If you do find these please even if you only get a couple, they are well worth having in an emergency, also look at Hexi burners for boiling water and cooking while hiking. I have used these for a 14 day trip instead of trying to carry normal rations and Im alive lol. They are also long life and very light.

    You've only seen a very minute bit of Canada. Our snow clearing vehicles are legendary. Actually I was suprised that the pick up trucks were used to clear snow in Nova Scotia. If you have time, please take the road to Tuktoyuktuck in the North West Teritories ( it's a long trip but one that will never be forgotten ).

Just spotted you did a fire truck, I mean, how on earth did RUclips not think I would want to see that!!! Anyway, I’m back, and have a lot to catch up on!!

    Favourite, but saddest Christmas present was 1981 , tweed flat cap and silk scarf . The year of Brideshead Revisited. It was a favourite because I walked my first dog Honey , a golden retriever. Hoping to impress the girls - it didn’t, I just looked like a knob 😂 Thanks Jess and Jon for another amazing video journey ❤️💙

    I got an offroader when I was about 11, it was some sort of custom home built job, similar wheel base to a mini, quad wheels/tires on the back and smaller front tires, a 400cc motorbike engine in the back, was brilliant, spent hours and hours driving that thing around the farm.

    Thanks for sharing your Christmas guys and I'm very happy you're enjoying yourselves 😂. To answer your question Jon, my birthday is halfway through December so I normally save my birthday gifts until Christmas. I remember when I was 8 my grandmother gave me a brown 🧸. I'm 45 and I still have it. It's more special to me now more than ever as she's gone now a little over a year. P.s. Jon, leave Jessica's muffin alone 😂. See you guys next week. Oh yeah, thanks for the longer video 😁
