I’m sure Anna has in mind what kind of content she wants to make but if she’s interested I have a bit of a suggestion. True crime is really popping off on RUclips. I think getting some video essay style videos on true crime events from her forensics perspective could be really interesting. I also think it’s heavily clickbaitable. “Forensics Expert reacts to So and So Crime”
I had no clue anna worked in a prison for the whole time i she was some undercover police but never assumed prison guard and im glad that anna is much happier now
Congratulations on your decision Anna, sorry to hear the job wasnt for you but at least you gave it a shot. I had huge gaps on my CV thanks to prioritising the needs of my family - especially those of my autistic son. Now hes living independently, and my other kids have grown (I was a single mum to 5) I'm back working in the industry I actually started in at the age of 10, I'm a violinist who never stopped playing I just stopped getting paid. The years fly by and if the universe brings you new possibilities in the future, just like it is now, you'll find yourself in the right place at the right time with no major upheavals or stress. Well done and good luck
Word of advice, when everything reopens, if anna is still looking at a forensics role, try Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and Cambridgeshire constabularies. They hire quite frequently because they have quite a few budget issues and I believe they are near to you.
Love it! Well done Anna for doing what's good for you and the family!! Love how supportive you are Kev. I'll be honest I've watched you for years and years and you both look happy and excited the way things are going :)
Don't worry about future jobs Anna. You have proof that you are willing to work, willing to learn and willing to apply yourself to whatever you need to do. The job wasn't right for you and your family and so you made the decision that best helped you, your partner and your kids. So many people make these decisions with far less of a serious reason and those decisions are respected. Another time of life, a different prison, different hours, who knows what would of happened and if it would of been better or worse. You applied yourself and spent months trying to work around the struggles you were all having despite it not being your dream job and it was just far too high risk for everyone with not so great a reward. You kept at it and you showed that you will try everything to make it work because your working life is important to you. The time you spent working there and your time away from work will undoubtably of shaped your future and i believe it will only be positive. Welcome to the channel full time Anna and whilst i so look forward to seeing what you guys get up to in the coming months, you guys finding your happy medium, your safety, your security, your calm, your neutral and your future progression is what truly matters. The job you did and how hard you fought for it will never go amiss and now it's time for you to whip our Kevin into shape and smash this next part of your life as a family who are content and together!!
completely understandable, my dad used to work in the force and I never saw him he was at work when i was asleep and asleep when I was awake, the lack of sun from working nights caused him to have a seasonal affected disorder which led him to on occasions be aggressive. it has taken him years to leave it all behind him but now myself and my brother are in our 20's. when you have family live outside of a career like this its hard. not to mention as you said yourself dangerous. good on you for putting your family first.
So pleased that things have turned out for the better. Family is so important and I'm glad you have the opportunity to be able to make a living from being together again. Best of luck and I look forward to following your new adventures!
Don’t feel bad about leaving your job for a second, Anna! It takes a lot of courage to make a big change like that toward a better-if unknown-future. I know you’ll find your career niche, and I’m so glad that you’ll be able to be around more for Andy in the meantime. Excited for the vlogs!
Kev & Anna, life is too short to be stressed and anxious. Make good of what you've got and have fun doing it, sounds like an absolutely fantastic decision for your family. I for one are really pleased for you and I'm excited to see all the adventures your family has
I know Anna won't see this but glad you made the best decision for you, Andy and Kev. Mainly YOU but the others are very very very important! Best to be in a routine that works for you and makes you happy! No point working a schedule you will be dreading! I used to have to start at 4:30am but decided i couldn't cope with the early bedtime early mornings, so i got moved department and haven't looked back since! Good luck with streaming and I'm glad you all have each other you were all meamt to be together!
I think this is great! Ppl enjoy your family. Even just the everyday stuff. It’s not always about what you’re doing, it’s who’s doing it. And the fact that Anna is gonna do her own is great! Glad y’all are back!
Anna, you've gained in confidence, and poise, being out of the home for a few months with added responsibility has brought you out of your shell. Good luck in your new job .
Smart move 👌 i worked 12hrs for 23 years and long shifts are no good . My son is autistic and deaf and it messed his routines up , and put to much pressure on my partner. Ive been on gardening leave since November and start a new day job on Tuesday. Everything is much better now , routine no melt downs no messing about going school in fact he doing well with school now and flourished during 2nd lockdown with me home schooling. Look forward to your vlogs and new channel. Have fun and enjoy it
Dear Kev, Anna, Andy and Sir Dave. I'm overjoyed with the news regarding the return of the vlog and your future endeavours. I've followed you for many years back on the daily vlogs, and was dissapointed when the vlog was stopped (I WAS NOT one of the silly gooses that kicked up a stink lol). I cant wait for all the future videos :) and getting more doses of daily Kev! LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!
Anna you did the right thing for your family, I have never seen you glow and be so happy on a video before. Thats how you know you made the right decision. Xx
I'm so glad your doing something for yourself Anna. Happy your out of an environment that's toxic and not good for you and the boys mental health. Life is to short for you to not look after yourself. X look forward to the vlogs and content x x x
Only just found your channel and just wanted to say how genuine and cool you both are. We have two children with additional needs and life isn’t easy but it’s nice to find someone we can relate to 😊
Great news, so delighted for you both - so much better than having to keep working and making yourselves miserable and it's fantastic you have another option. Looking forward to the forthcoming content!
It is so nice to see Anna back and Kevin you look so happy to have her back by your side. On another bright side, what a great opportunity Anna had to work in that line. The experience is amazing and now you know that you will never want to work in a prison with prisoners again. You have had an experience of a lifetime. There is always a silver lining and a positive spin to every negative situation. This will be great on your resume. Congratulations Anna you have accomplished a lot in these last 6 months. Congratulations to both of you on your next stepping stone in your journey.
Lovely to see back Anna.glad you had the opportunity to try new work sorry it didn't workout for you but glad you're safe best of luck for the future 🤗💞
I, for one, welcome our new Anna Overlord! In a more serious note, I used to work a job in training for a hosital/med school that had me routinely visiting prisons to do training for their medical staff. It was the most stressful days of my entire professional career. Anna, I don't blame you one single bit for stepping away from that job. There's a sign on the visitor/staff gates at Montford Unit in west Texas that says "No Hostages will leave this facility" which puts your net worth in that industry in perspective very, very quickly.
Slightly later streams... This American is excited to watch you live. And everyone's mental health is important. I'm glad everyone seems so much happier now.
Yayyy I'm sooo happy the vlogs are back well done Anna for doing what makes you happy and I'm so glad Kev has got you by his side supporting him with the channel I love seeing you both so happy!!😊👍🏻
All that time at uni all those exams and hours of work and you left so soon! That must be a right bummer! But guess you have to do what’s right for the family! I am really glad to hopefully have these vlogs back
Welcome back! Kev, will you still do the occasional video like you have been doing whilst Anna has been working at her previous job? I enjoyed that sorta content as well.
So so proud of you Anna for doing what makes you happy hun! Anna you look the happiest i've seen you in a few years. I'm so so excited - Anna you might even get this Mum into gaming!
I am really happy for you!! Great news!! I worked the night shift for 30 years in a hospital and it was hard!! Working in a prison must have been really tough!! Anna I think you made the right decision!!
Look forward to seeing more from you all - quick heads up though - the trams in Nottingham aren't running through the city centre at the moment due to track replacement/upgrade works.
@@freck2614 yea I was kinda of upset when he announced his vlogs were ending last month but I understand if there’s nothing else really going on right now there’s nothing much to vlog maybe one day he’ll be back but for now his Pokémon videos are awesome
I got the impression that you really didn't enjoy family Vlogging before Kev. Hopefully now Anna is involved and you've got support there with content creation it becomes a more fun process for you. I've always loved your content regardless but it was the Comic Con videos that brought me on board. Looking forward to the future of the channel 🙏. Best of luck pal
I love this! Well done for taking the plunge to pursue happiness! Working yourself into the ground does not equal happiness at all. Do what you love, pay the bills and everything else is a bonus.
Glad the vlogs are back & hopefully it brings a smile to you all! Kev is one of the most genuine guys going, so it's great to see him smiling again on streams too
So glad you did this video, I’ve been interested in going and working in a prison as I’ve always been intrigued and done my research but hearing from yourselves had put things into perspective. So thank you hope you all now enjoy the new ventures 😊
It's good to see you both smiling again. It sounds like you made the right decision for this moment in time. You both need to do what's right for you and your family. I look forward to seeing where you take the vlog and the Channel(s). now restrictions are easing more, and we are slowly able to do more things. Let's hope that there's no reason for us to go back into full lockdown again.. I'm extremely clinically vulnerable. I've been sheilding since before the 1st lockdown last March. I caught Covid off one of my carers at the beginning of this year. So im waiting for my 2nd jab now. I'm battling against Long Covid now to. Since last March I've only left my house 2 times. I've essentially been living life through my favourite RUclipsrs. I look forward to seeing what the next step is 💜💪🏻🧩💙
🤣🤣I’m laughing because you had a right old rant on that video and now you’re doing what you said you wouldn’t 🤣!! Not hating I know you meant everything you said at the time. Welcome back vlogging 🙌🏾
Sounds like it will give all of you better quality of life which is great, good luck. Can’t wait too see the new improved production, can we have a theme tune for FM . . .
Yippeeeeeeeeee! The vlogs return. So good to see the Chapman family back again. I loved how the channel was going before the house move and the end of the vlogs. Prisons are probably, no place for somebody like Anna, bless her. Well done for sticking with that job as long as she did. You're also a fantastic mother and carer for Andy though Anna. You wouldn't consider something along those lines for a career? #Justsaying so please don't block me. I look forward to some great content.
Im very happy the vlog is returning ( I've re-subscribed in the process of this decision ) .I have a question in regards to this . Will you lot be moving back to Peterborough or staying in Leicester ???
There is a great message in this...if your life isn't making you happy, change it.
Totally agree - really inspirational, thank you so much Kev and Anna :)
Absolutely, but it's also trying to maintain financial security in the next chapter.
Did anyone else notice that Anna seemed a lot happier in this video ? 🙂
Watching the video I thought exactly the same thing it’s quite nice to see
I agree
Kev also seems his old self
I 💯agree
I agree
I’m sure Anna has in mind what kind of content she wants to make but if she’s interested I have a bit of a suggestion. True crime is really popping off on RUclips. I think getting some video essay style videos on true crime events from her forensics perspective could be really interesting. I also think it’s heavily clickbaitable. “Forensics Expert reacts to So and So Crime”
yeah i’d love that! i watch true crime all the time
I had no clue anna worked in a prison for the whole time i she was some undercover police but never assumed prison guard and im glad that anna is much happier now
Congratulations on your decision Anna, sorry to hear the job wasnt for you but at least you gave it a shot. I had huge gaps on my CV thanks to prioritising the needs of my family - especially those of my autistic son. Now hes living independently, and my other kids have grown (I was a single mum to 5) I'm back working in the industry I actually started in at the age of 10, I'm a violinist who never stopped playing I just stopped getting paid. The years fly by and if the universe brings you new possibilities in the future, just like it is now, you'll find yourself in the right place at the right time with no major upheavals or stress. Well done and good luck
All this time I thought Anna was a spy 😂😂
I did to
What was it?
Me too 🤣🤣🤣
I thought the police.

Word of advice, when everything reopens, if anna is still looking at a forensics role, try Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and Cambridgeshire constabularies. They hire quite frequently because they have quite a few budget issues and I believe they are near to you.
Love it! Well done Anna for doing what's good for you and the family!! Love how supportive you are Kev. I'll be honest I've watched you for years and years and you both look happy and excited the way things are going :)

We have missed you Anna x
