    Nothing can make you look hard Vick. Yes it’s me. Still binging your old videos. Trying to catch up. I’m so happy for you guys having a baby it’s not an easy thing to do. I was never blessed to have my own child, the traditional way.😊 we adopted, and we got a great kid. He’s 27 now and he’s such a great man, responsible, reliable, works hard, and honesty, which is very important and a bloke. So you got me talking like you guys, and I’m from the USA. But I love to hear you guys talk, and speak proper English. Have a great week. I’ll still be watching. Trying to catch up and leaving messages here and there. Congratulations again on your new baby. By the way, that bread looked delicious. You should post the recipe.

    Omg, it's been a long time for me to have home made bread, 10 minutes out of the oven and mom would slice off a 1 inch slice and put homemade butter on it. It would melt immediately and the taste, I believe it's a taste of heaven....

    @franktuckwell196 3 года назад +1

    I fully understand your love of the aga. I first lived with a coal fired Rayburn ( it was my job to riddle it, clear it out and re- light the fire. The ashes were chucked down the garden steps in the snow of 1962/3 winter. When the Rayburn died, we had a gas fired Aga to replace. I lived with that Aga for 34 years. It got serviced once every two years. Marvellous, it must count as part of the ballast? as they weigh a ton. I remember watching ours being built on site. Tried to order a tote bag but you are OUT OF STOCK😅👍👏👌🏽

    @phillipbateman2284 3 года назад +1

    The highlights, Jo's broth and bread. Only had lunch a couple of hours ago, but my mouth was dribbling for more. Vic's got Holly sorted by the sound of it, and dont worry about your hair cut, my darling wife cuts mine, and I'm down to about 10% of what I started with. Jo, you are glowing, and Vic is matching you every step of the way by the look of it. Professionals at their job, you'll be selling tote bags to the other side of the world soon. Excellent vlog, fine job. Couldn't quite read the cauli's price sticker, I like to be able to think, excellent price or, is that for only one? Many thanks, take care you two.

    @talesfromthetiller 3 года назад +5

    Absolutely love following your journey and congratulations on the impending new arrival. As a fellow male of some years old, I feel it my duty to point out to Victor that commenting on the oops moment during the haircut that was being conducted by the expectant mother of your child the importance of understanding the very fine line that sits between bravery and stupidity especially when she has a pair of scissors in her hand! I feel sure that you understand my concern for you :)

    @measureoncecutthreetimes8677 3 года назад

    Hi guys, lovely catch-up vlog. Jo, you are looking quite the resplendent Mum-to-be. Sorry to hear about the upchucking but for some Mums that is what it is. Hopefully, there are some natural remedies that can be safe and tummy-settling. I am sure some of the friends on here will be able to advise you on that stuff.
    Just love those bags, what a great idea. Postage Downunder would kill the idea but they do look a really nice bag.
    That haircut... probably as good as my old Dad used to do. As the local Barber for so many years, he once put out a sign saying that he "couldn't cut hair any longer". He was inundated with callers wanting to know what the problem was. He would patiently explain to them that nothing was wrong, he could cut the hair shorter, he just couldn't cut it longer! Not sure if it was such a good marketing ploy but it got their attention LOL.
    He used to say that the difference between a good haircut and a not-so-good haircut was about a week. So let's have a check-up in a week and see how it looks ;)
    Stay safe and well.

    Jo, Vic, Another great Vlog. Glad your not being sick anymore Jo. You were both very brave trudging thru the undergrowth in search of your canal. Loved your shopping trip. Very entertaing and very watchable Vlog as always. I liked your Copyright comment. I recently edited a 30yo piece copied from a VHS tape converted to a digital file (for editing). There was a radio playing very low in the background. It never made it passed the RUclips. I ended doing exactly you Vic Did. Muted the original track and added non copyright music. All part of life's experience but its good fun. Your looking great Jo. Take care both.

    Vic’s hair looks great. You have so many talents and skills. That was quite a ride back from the shops and you only just beat the rain. That’s what it’s been like here. Sunshine one minute and heavy rain the next. Has Vic really fixed the engine on Holly? It sounded okay, but he called it bodging. That’s sometimes the best way. I hadn’t realized you had an Aga. Very useful. Have you had your Covid jabs yet, or aren’t you old enough to qualify? You look very well Joanna xx

  • @billstarr7224
    @billstarr7224 3 года назад +3

    • @HollyTheCafeBoat
      @HollyTheCafeBoat  3 года назад +3

      Thanks Bill! Yeah it does get hot in here sometimes but as the weather hasn't been too good lately it just warms the boat up to a nice temp. Thats the reason I cook everything at once though, so that we don't have the oven on for longer than it needs to be :-)

    Looks very much like a Heritage diesel fired “Aga” They do double and single stoves that can also heat the whole boat through radiators too. I can recommend the Heritage Uno which is perfect size for a boat. I had one fitted 12 years ago, keeps the kettle warm all day!
