Aww thank you!! People have been very protective of that crappy little coconut thing! 😂. If you love those, when you’re next here try the coconut Almond Joy. It’s also gross, I mean like bounty!! 😂
😂. Thank you!! I don’t dislike lemon curd, I just think of the early 90s 😂. I’ve noticed how people are very protective of their bounty bars lol. If you like them, there is a candy bar here called Almond Joy that is similar. I avoid both of them, but you might like them. Thanks so much for watching!
Really clever video Chris. I agree with you about Bountys. I saw a boy had a Celebrations chocolate advent calendar last Christmas and he got a Bounty the first five days! Happy Inauguration Day! Yay!
Wow what a way to tell your life story, that was amazing, you would be one of the least likely people I know to be bullied, just shows it can happen to anyone. How brill is that British cafe!
Really enjoyed this vlog. Nice to know how you ended up in Florida. I have stayed in Davenport several times but never saw this place, will definitely being going when I return next year (hopefully).
Hey Matthew! Thanks so much for watching!! Really appreciate it! I think it opens next month so will be well settled in when you get here. 🤞. Thanks again
Thank you so much Jayne! You are one of the few that did not get mad at me for outing Bounty as horrible lol!! Hope you are well and thanks for watching!
Came across your channel as I watch the lodge guys on a daily basis. Couldn’t believe you lived in Washington, I lived there for 5 years. Loved how you explained your story. Good luck with your channel
Hey Deborah!! So glad you found the channel via the guys. I was young, but I remember my time up there!! Really appreciate you checking out the videos. Hope you’re well!!
this was very interesting the Q&A was great and i'm glad you found that cafe and a lot of the stuff you love and were missing. its always fun to see new places.
Loved this vlog with all the background information. I have always believed that whatever decisions we make in life a lot of where we end up is chance or out of our hands. Enjoy where you are.
Thanks so much John. I appreciate you watching! I completely agree. I have always lived with the idea that the only thing we are in control of is this very moment. Yesterday is gone, tomorrow has not happened, so all we can do is make a choice in a moment.. I will always believe that a bad decision is better than no decision, so make one, rather than letting moments slip by!! :). Hope you are safe and well!!
Absolutely loved this vlog, love your story at the beginning. Great content Chris thanks. Been to Orlando/Florida a lot but didn’t know about this place thanks for your review x
Chris SOOOOOO pleased you did the Q&A story board as someone who is very nosey it's great to hear your story .. loved the way you did it very clever. As for the dull & boring bit don't agree & pretty sure if you answered a question every so often we would all find it as interesting as this vlog . look forward to them ... stay safe
Hey Logan!! Was a pleasure meeting you also!! I actually did not get to make the video that day, so the opening ended up different, but I will be back up soon and will definitely let everyone know about you guys!! Those pecans are next level!!!! See you soon bud, take care!
Yes! While the parents were drunk the kids were asleep, led on 2 dining chairs pushed together! Fun times - even more so now that I’m the one drunk eating gateau 🥳
The quality of the video is amazing. I am so impressed! Love that you also showcased a local business. Local businesses need all our support right now. Well done. 😃
Aww thanks so much Rachael, I really appreciate that! It’s so important to support local businesses. Both la Rosalie cafe in Winter Garden and also the British Cafe are great places! Thanks again. Hope you’re well
Really enjoyed this vlog! I know you via The Lodge Guys,. You are super creative! Loved the way you told your story, I’m now subscribed, looking forward to your future vlogs.
thankyou Chris for this vlog, we come to florida every year for 3 weeks and after a while we do miss the british comfort food,so thank you,keep up the good work
Loved the story board what a great way to visually tell your story. You have had an exciting life. I understand being home sick as we lived in Australia when we first got married and used to love watching Minder on the Telly as the accents reminded us of home. My hubby a Spurs supporter and had to watch them in the FA cup final at 2 in the morning all on his own.
Thank you so much!! I have tried to do as much as possible over the years. Obviously this little video does not cover all the crap I got wrong! That would be a far longer video lol!! Your husband sounds like a man who likes to suffer by following Spurs. I was a season ticket holder at WHL for over a decade so I feel his pain lol!! Hope you are both well and thanks again!
Another amazing vlog, thank you for telling your story of how you became lost in Florida, I have often wondered how you ended up there! Loving the fact you got some home comforts and I really hope you get to see your brother soon, you can see how much you love him! Totally agree, boo to Man City, bounty 🤢, lemon curd and P G tips! Enjoy your crumpets 😋😋 x
Thanks so much Emily! I was so happy to have found that place!! Hopefully he’ll be able to come here or me there ASAP! 😂. You sound like you have good taste. 🙌🏻. Hope you’re well!
Wonderful to see your story , people ask me about how I landed in the USA. Someday I guess I will tell my story once they forget how cool yours is as it’s not quite as glamorous mr Ski instructor . Thanks for the heads up on the Best of British we will making a trip over.
Hey bud! Thank you! 😂. Everyone’s story is different and that’s what makes them all interesting! I think you’ll really like it there. We had the curry from there on Saturday and it was amazing!! Hope you guys are well 😊
@@chrislostinflorida We are in the thick of just bought a house near Disney that needs a a bit of renovation. Posted a short vlog on it last week after the close and got a lot of comments and views so will post weekly updates. Think I need to pay Nick to come out here for a month and do the floors for me lol.
Another fabulous vlog! Always interesting , never boring ! It’s been such a long time since I’ve been to winter garden , I used to love the west oaks mall ! Last time I was there was probably 13 years ago, so I guess it’s time to visit in September! Yuk to mushy peas but yummy lemon curd and bounty bars ! Stay safe x x
Thank you Ilse! A lot has changed in DT Winter Garden. I definitely recommend a stop in at La Rosalie there for a coffee and a bite to eat!! It is delicious! Hope you are doing well! :)
@@chrislostinflorida thank you we will check it out in September (living in hope) we are fine but bored , it feels like we’ve been in some form of lockdown for almost a year now ! We need a bit of pixie dust M you three stay safe x x
@@chrislostinflorida afraid it has not been a good start to 2021 for us, hubby had 11 day stay in hospital with cv and now I’m positive, 2021 can do one already for me!!!!🤬🤬
Chris you are not dull at all 🤣 we love watching your adventures in Florida and will continue to appreciate your vlogs as often as you can put them out. Hope you and Jenn are keeping safe
DANIEL!!! Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch! I hope you are well and that things improve rapidly back home in terms of vaccine and opening up etc!! Hopefully see you out here sometime asap!! Keep safe xx
Another great vlog Chris, love hearing your story and seeing your relationship with your brother was special. Good to see you’ve got a place for your Brit treat fix. Looking forward to the next vlog already !
What an amazing vlog. Loved the story board. Such a clever way to show a glimse of your life... Keep going, and stay safe. Oh and bounty is one of my favourite chocs 😋.x
Hey Sarah, thank you so much! Really appreciate that! I am the opposite. I love pickles and dislike Bounty! That simple part of the video seems to have sparked some controversy amongst chocolate bar purists! lol!! Hope you are well
Great vlog! The storyboard scene was fab and v interesting too, the City scarf comment was hilarious 🤣 That cafe looks amazing, hopefully the perfect antidote to homesickness! The only thing out of place was Vegemite!!
Thanks so much Mat! Glad you enjoyed it! It was the one part of the Cafe that let itself down... that scarf. Thankfully there was no Arsenal representation in there! lol!! Thanks for watching and hope you are well!
Just watched this again as Andy (my hubby) was interested in how you got to Florida. He really wants to go to Austin on our next visit or maybe year after and was interested in how long it took to drive from Austin to Orlando. We have done a couple of road trips to Asheville, Charleston and Nashville but Austin looks a lot further. By the way hope you got to see the Euros England v Germany match. Fantastic to beat the Germans at last in a knock out match.
Hey!! Thanks for sharing the video!! Yes austin is not a drivable option to be honest. It’s probably a 14 hours drive with no stops or major traffic. Also, aside from Louisiana, it is not the most interesting of drives. It’s about a 2.5 hour flight. Check out southwest, they often have good flight deals. I got to the game thank you!! Amazing!
Other options are frontier, jet blue and spirit. Honestly I would never recommend spirit to anyone. Of those 3. Jet blue are the best. I’d stick to southwest or JetBlue but in a pinch frontier is an option. Albeit not the best option. :)
lol!! if paradise is gritty coconut between your teeth hahah!! Thank you for watching.. I really appreciate it. You should try the coconut Almond Joy if you like Bounty. They are very similar :)
Been thinking of moving to Florida for years (back to actually, lived in Cape Coral for a few months 10 years ago), liked your vid, kind of a different impression than I expected of Orlando.
Hey. Thanks so much for watching! Really appreciate it. I have only been in Florida this past 9 months after moving from Texas, but I am enjoying it so far. Despite it having been a very odd year to have moved here!!
Sorry your family cant visit right now and I hope somehow Florida can help heal your homesickness. Remember, few people are native Floridians, most of us are transplants that learn to love it and make it home! Your Florida buddy, Mike
@@chrislostinflorida Thank you Chris for responding to my comment, when its the right time for you I would enjoy getting together and sharing some of my Disney and living in Florida history with you. I understand that I am a stranger to you, but I promise that I am not a stalker! Just another Florida transplant. Your Florida buddy. P.S. I have been a fan of The Lodge Guys for years, I can see why you guys are friends.
I have been watching the the Lodge Guys and just ordered Lemon Curd - LOVE IT!! Its just like lemon pie with out the crust. I'm a US person in Tampa now but from Idaho.
lol!! It took me a good 3 minutes to even process what this meant! I do not watch any of my videos back and so I was very confused.... having caught up though.... maybe....maybe.... lol!! :)
@@chrislostinflorida haha, it's worth trying! Thinking about it, it does come across oddly cryptic. I'll subscribe and see if you take my confectionery advice 😁
Wow I didn’t know that place existed and if our holiday goes ahead in September then we will definitely be taking a trip there Another awesome awesome video Chris and it was really good to listen to part of your life story and boy you have certainly lived 👏👏
Brilliant vlog Chris, loved hearing your story....and only you could make a cuppa tea and full English breakfast look sexy lol. Jen (Pink Orchard Bakes)
Ah thanks mate! For sure, I know of a couple decent spaces that don't charge the earth by the hour..... Thanks for watching man, hope you get out here asap!
Love your style of vlogs, definitely be checking this place out being from north east england myself. Agree on the bounty comment 😂😂 definitely lower tier chocolate bar 🍫
Another brilliant vlog, you are sh*t hot at this, I can’t believe you’ve not been doing it all that long. I’ve got a beef though... dissing the Bounty?!? What!? Chocolate and 1 of your 5 a day wrapped in a Caribbean inspired wrapper, what’s not to like 😋 It must be true about wanting what you can’t have... you are out there missing the UK and we’re all over here missing Florida ☀️ This is it though, this is the year this covid malarkey ends, you have my word for it 🤞.
Thank you Ruby! I really appreciate that! No, I only started making things earlier in 2020/. 😂 it seems I have upset a lot of people and their love of coconut and chocolate lol! I like your optimism and I am sure you are right! Thanks again! :)
Looks a fantastic place to live Glad you found some home comforts.Nice story too.Did you eat both puddings lol looked delicious.Cool trainers by the way.Thanks for sharing found you through the lodge guys , new subscriber here 🙂👍
Hi I live in washington tynewear changed a lot people call it turable to find places has it was districts not now lot easer you have done a lot in your young life great
Thanks so much Kevin. Really appreciate you watching. There has been a very defensive response from the bounty supporting community 😂. Hope you’re well!!
What a brilliant vid really enjoyed watching ...I love the style in which You do ur vlogs so different to what is usually out there which makes u unique 😀 btw I love bounty’s and eat lemon curd lol although I do prefer lemon cheese lol 😊 prices on uk stuff is ridiculous but I pay for American food which costs around the same but it’s ok it’s worth it thanks again Chris brill vlog can’t wait till the next xx
Ah thanks so much Zoe! I really appreciate it! If you love bounty's, you should try the coconut almond joy bars when you can... I dislike them a lot, but if you love bounty, you will like it :). Thanks again!
It is a hard subject to make a video on as there are simply so many different avenues you can take depending on your circumstances. The one thing they all have in common is that none are overly straightforward and none are cheap! I can definitely think of a way of explaining my scenario at some point though. The best advice I can give from the start is look for a decent UK & US based immigration attorney! Thanks for watching!
@@chrislostinflorida Hi Chris, we are looking into Sarasota at the moment, I'm not sure if you have been down that way ?Over te next 5 years I'm selling off various parts of my business so I guess in this time I want to find the right area. My wife and I have a 2 year old so disney is a must, but to be honest I need to escape it and see the true America, beaches and general life . Totally understand not doing a video on this article. All the best. Steven
I am about to drive to Sarasota right now! It is lovely over there, only a 90 minute drive to Disney. I would highly recommend you visiting Bradenton, Siesta Key, Ana Maria Island etc which are all within that general area!
Not anymore! I actually closed my LinkedIn account last year as it was not pertinent anymore. Feel free to DM me on Instagram if you have any questions
I think every single photo of me from birth until adulthood was awkward and I had crazy hair and glasses bc it was the 80s 😂. I love lemon curd, sandwich spread, and Bounty bars because I’m a psychopath. I can’t wait to get my next box swap!! 😝. If you are looking for a good British pie shoppe try The Proper Pie Company (also in Davenport) Went a few years ago and LOVED it. I NEED to go to Best of British now...to eat and sing karaoke. YES! 💕.
I almost blocked your account mid-way through sentence 2! lol!! I actually drove past the place you mentioned the other day. I will go check it out at some point! :) We can do a beer / karaoke night when you make your trip :). xx
This is edited so well ! Love your videos! Just very quickly though - how did you get a visa / green card ?? Did that just come initially to Texas because of work?? Xx
Love this video 😀 new to your channel subscribed today 👍🏻 If you fancy a care package swop we would love to American foods in return for English food? We miss Florida so much so know how your feeling ❤️
Great vlog as usual Chris have been to that British bar many times but not the cafe definitely go there next year when this pandemic is hopefully over we stay at Hampton lakes on highway 27 where our friend has a house
Hey Rachel! Thanks so much for watching again!! No, I only started IG in March and YT in June / July I think. I don’t know what I’m doing, but it’s a lot of fun trying to figure it out 😂. Hope you’re well!
Your storyboard scene was amazing. 😍👌. We love bounty. How dare you. 😱😆
Aww thank you!! People have been very protective of that crappy little coconut thing! 😂. If you love those, when you’re next here try the coconut Almond Joy. It’s also gross, I mean like bounty!! 😂
I agree with TLG love a bounty bar - especially the dark chocolate ones!!
Bounty's are horrid 🤣
Bounty one of my fav
Loved this one, yes people still eat lemon curd and bounty is amazing.
😂. Thank you!! I don’t dislike lemon curd, I just think of the early 90s 😂. I’ve noticed how people are very protective of their bounty bars lol.

Thank you Shirley! I think I have started a war about chocolate bars now lol! Thanks for watching and I hope you are well!
@@chrislostinflorida Thank you I am well. Celebrations have got rid of the truffle chocolates in their Christmas tins but kept Bountys in!
:). What a terrible decision lol!
Fantastic vlog and yes the storyboard was amazing. .
Thanks so much Chris!! :)

How brill is that British cafe!
:). The British Cafe is ace!! So nice to have it to go to if I ever want to watch some football or get a sneaky full English lol!!

The Arctic roll....what kids were given at family do’s while the adults had gateau 😂
lol!! Yes!! For some reason always reminds me of NYE parties in the early 90s lol!
Yes! While the parents were drunk the kids were asleep, led on 2 dining chairs pushed together! Fun times - even more so now that I’m the one drunk eating gateau 🥳
The quality of the video is amazing. I am so impressed! Love that you also showcased a local business. Local businesses need all our support right now. Well done. 😃
Aww thanks so much Rachael, I really appreciate that! It’s so important to support local businesses. Both la Rosalie cafe in Winter Garden and also the British Cafe are great places! Thanks again. Hope you’re well

Also, aside from Louisiana, it is not the most interesting of drives. It’s about a 2.5 hour flight. Check out southwest, they often have good flight deals. I got to the game thank you!! Amazing!
Thanks for advice Chris we will look at Southwest to see what deals they have on next visit
Other options are frontier, jet blue and spirit. Honestly I would never recommend spirit to anyone. Of those 3. Jet blue are the best. I’d stick to southwest or JetBlue but in a pinch frontier is an option. Albeit not the best option. :)
We have used Jet Blue before so will check them out too.
Bounty are not trash there lovely, taste of paradise
lol!! if paradise is gritty coconut between your teeth hahah!! Thank you for watching.. I really appreciate it. You should try the coconut Almond Joy if you like Bounty. They are very similar :)
Been thinking of moving to Florida for years (back to actually, lived in Cape Coral for a few months 10 years ago), liked your vid, kind of a different impression than I expected of Orlando.
Hey. Thanks so much for watching! Really appreciate it. I have only been in Florida this past 9 months after moving from Texas, but I am enjoying it so far. Despite it having been a very odd year to have moved here!!
Sorry your family cant visit right now and I hope somehow Florida can help heal your homesickness. Remember, few people are native Floridians, most of us are transplants that learn to love it and make it home! Your Florida buddy, Mike
Thank you Mike. I appreciate that! I do love it here, but would be nice to see a few more familiar faces too! Hope you are doing well! :)
@@chrislostinflorida Thank you Chris for responding to my comment, when its the right time for you I would enjoy getting together and sharing some of my Disney and living in Florida history with you. I understand that I am a stranger to you, but I promise that I am not a stalker! Just another Florida transplant. Your Florida buddy. P.S. I have been a fan of The Lodge Guys for years, I can see why you guys are friends.
I have been watching the the Lodge Guys and just ordered Lemon Curd - LOVE IT!! Its just like lemon pie with out the crust. I'm a US person in Tampa now but from Idaho.
I like Lemon Curd, but it is not something I have had in many many years. Hope you are enjoying life out in Tampa!! Thanks so much for watching!! :)
I dig your editing style! Bravo!
thank you so much!!! :))
Freeze the Bounty and the game changes. You're welcome! 👍
lol!! It took me a good 3 minutes to even process what this meant! I do not watch any of my videos back and so I was very confused.... having caught up though.... maybe....maybe.... lol!! :)
@@chrislostinflorida haha, it's worth trying! Thinking about it, it does come across oddly cryptic. I'll subscribe and see if you take my confectionery advice 😁
Awesome vid 😀
Thanks so much Amy!! 😊
Hey hit me with some of yours and your lovely lady's uk favourites we could do a swap box? 😉
send me a DM on instagram :)
Wow I didn’t know that place existed and if our holiday goes ahead in September then we will definitely be taking a trip there
Another awesome awesome video Chris and it was really good to listen to part of your life story and boy you have certainly lived 👏👏
Thanks so much man!! I do highly recommend that place for a bite of comfort food and a cuppa! Appreciate your support! Hope you are well!
@@chrislostinflorida sounds and looks amazing. All good thanks and staying safe. Hope you and Jenn are both well
Brilliant vlog Chris, loved hearing your story....and only you could make a cuppa tea and full English breakfast look sexy lol.
Jen (Pink Orchard Bakes)
Hey Jen, hope you are doing well now! Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it! Sexy hahaha, it was all the foods doing.... :)
Loved this one man :) Next time i'm in florida we should go find a rehearsal room and jam!! Also... Yorkshire Tea - WIN! Bounty - TRASH!! Hahaaa!
Ah thanks mate! For sure, I know of a couple decent spaces that don't charge the earth by the hour..... Thanks for watching man, hope you get out here asap!
Love your style of vlogs, definitely be checking this place out being from north east england myself.
Agree on the bounty comment 😂😂 definitely lower tier chocolate bar 🍫
Thank you Gayle!! I really recommend it for a bite to eat! I feel people are very protective of their chocolate bars! 😂.
Only problem with these videos is there isn't enough of them 😔
Really enjoy your content.
Thank you so much! 🥰
Another brilliant vlog, you are sh*t hot at this, I can’t believe you’ve not been doing it all that long. I’ve got a beef though... dissing the Bounty?!? What!? Chocolate and 1 of your 5 a day wrapped in a Caribbean inspired wrapper, what’s not to like 😋 It must be true about wanting what you can’t have... you are out there missing the UK and we’re all over here missing Florida ☀️ This is it though, this is the year this covid malarkey ends, you have my word for it 🤞.
Thank you Ruby! I really appreciate that! No, I only started making things earlier in 2020/. 😂 it seems I have upset a lot of people and their love of coconut and chocolate lol! I like your optimism and I am sure you are right! Thanks again! :)
So cute!
:)
Looks a fantastic place to live
Glad you found some home comforts.Nice story too.Did you eat both puddings lol looked delicious.Cool trainers by the way.Thanks for sharing found you through the lodge guys , new subscriber here 🙂👍
Thanks so much! Really appreciate it 😃. It’s a really nice spot when I’m craving some home comforts! Hope you’re well!
Love this video btw.. and ❤️❤️
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Loved this : ) My Dad buys the sandwich spread to take back to the US every year : )
:). Thank you Lisa! I have not had it since I was a kid! Hope you are well!
@chrislostinflorida Me neither. I'm sure there must be a reason for that 😂 Loved your story by the way. I love hearing people's stories ❤
Hi I live in washington tynewear changed a lot people call it turable to find places has it was districts not now lot easer you have done a lot in your young life great
I have not been back there for so many years! I imagine it has changed so much!! Hope you are well and thanks for watching!
I love lemon curd. On toast mmmm
I don’t mind it. Just haven’t had it for many years now. Thanks for watching :)
Just add Fried Bread, Black pudding and that will do me and milk after 👍🏽 amazing as always.
Man, I could smash some fried bread now 😂. Thanks so much buddy!! 🙌🏻
Another great “boring” vlog - but how dare you dis the Bounty! 🤣
Thanks so much Kevin. Really appreciate you watching. There has been a very defensive response from the bounty supporting community 😂. Hope you’re well!!
If you’re gonna dis any UK sweet it’s gotta be the Snickers 🤮 - hope that doesn’t start WW3 🤣
😂 I have not had a Snickers in ages!! Theres a lot going on in those. lol!!
Love your accent.
😊 😊
Fantastic vlog as always Chris, love the story board and the photos brilliant. Got to disagree on the tea though for to be PG! X
Hey Amanda, thank you so much! Lol, I think I started a lot of disagreements about tea and bounty bars lol!! Hope you are well :)
What a brilliant vid really enjoyed watching ...I love the style in which You do ur vlogs so different to what is usually out there which makes u unique 😀 btw I love bounty’s and eat lemon curd lol although I do prefer lemon cheese lol 😊 prices on uk stuff is ridiculous but I pay for American food which costs around the same but it’s ok it’s worth it thanks again Chris brill vlog can’t wait till the next xx
Ah thanks so much Zoe! I really appreciate it! If you love bounty's, you should try the coconut almond joy bars when you can... I dislike them a lot, but if you love bounty, you will like it :). Thanks again!
😂😂😂 you were a wild one
😜. 😊
Great vlog, you’re wrong about the Bounty though 😂
Thank you Gemma!! There are an overwhelming number of Bounty defenders out there. 😂.
Yes me too love a Bounty
Have you ever been to the Magical Meat Boutique British Pub in Mount Dora? Bit far for us to go but I see good reviews.
I have not, but who doesn't love magical meat!! I have added it to my fat kid eating spreadsheet!! Thank you!!
Hi, we are thinking of moving to florida in the coming years, can you do a episode on what we need to know the pros and cons. Thank-you
It is a hard subject to make a video on as there are simply so many different avenues you can take depending on your circumstances. The one thing they all have in common is that none are overly straightforward and none are cheap! I can definitely think of a way of explaining my scenario at some point though. The best advice I can give from the start is look for a decent UK & US based immigration attorney! Thanks for watching!
@@chrislostinflorida Hi Chris, we are looking into Sarasota at the moment, I'm not sure if you have been down that way ?Over te next 5 years I'm selling off various parts of my business so I guess in this time I want to find the right area. My wife and I have a 2 year old so disney is a must, but to be honest I need to escape it and see the true America, beaches and general life . Totally understand not doing a video on this article. All the best. Steven
Chris, are you on LinkedIn?
I am about to drive to Sarasota right now! It is lovely over there, only a 90 minute drive to Disney. I would highly recommend you visiting Bradenton, Siesta Key, Ana Maria Island etc which are all within that general area!
Not anymore! I actually closed my LinkedIn account last year as it was not pertinent anymore. Feel free to DM me on Instagram if you have any questions
Hi Chris, enjoyed this vlog very much, the cafe looked great! Are you a natural Silver fox? Just subscribed.
Hey Anitia! Thanks so much, I really appreciate that! 😂, yes my hair color is natural! Sober fox / old 😂. Either works! Hope you’re well!
I think every single photo of me from birth until adulthood was awkward and I had crazy hair and glasses bc it was the 80s 😂. I love lemon curd, sandwich spread, and Bounty bars because I’m a psychopath. I can’t wait to get my next box swap!! 😝. If you are looking for a good British pie shoppe try The Proper Pie Company (also in Davenport) Went a few years ago and LOVED it. I NEED to go to Best of British now...to eat and sing karaoke. YES! 💕.
I almost blocked your account mid-way through sentence 2! lol!! I actually drove past the place you mentioned the other day. I will go check it out at some point! :) We can do a beer / karaoke night when you make your trip :). xx
@@chrislostinflorida moi? 😭😭. Hahaha. I am the person who likes a lot of things people do not. I shall serenade you and Jenn...you can bet on it 🍻.
This is edited so well ! Love your videos! Just very quickly though - how did you get a visa / green card ?? Did that just come initially to Texas because of work?? Xx
Thank you so much Phoebe! My first visa was sponsored by a company I came and worked for in Texas :).
Love this video 😀 new to your channel subscribed today 👍🏻
If you fancy a care package swop we would love to American foods in return for English food? We miss Florida so much so know how your feeling ❤️
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing! I will let you guys know!! 🤞 that you get to travel back here ASAP!! 😊
Certainly worse places to be lost...I wish I was 😃
😊. Thank you so much for watching!! hope you’re well.
Great vlog as usual Chris have been to that British bar many times but not the cafe definitely go there next year when this pandemic is hopefully over we stay at Hampton lakes on highway 27 where our friend has a house
Ah thanks bud! Highly recommend a visit there when you are next over! I know Hampton Lakes. Not far away at al! Hope you are well!
The question for us Scots is so they have Irn Bru?
Hey Bryan, I actually did look for that, but did not see it. Publix do stock it though! :). Hope you are well and thanks for watching!
@@chrislostinflorida doing well thanks. Good to know about Publix. We will hopefully be out in Florida in Sept. so will look out for it.
No bountys are good
😂. 😊
Wow - I didn’t realise you hadn’t been doing vlogging long 🤯
Hey Rachel! Thanks so much for watching again!! No, I only started IG in March and YT in June / July I think. I don’t know what I’m doing, but it’s a lot of fun trying to figure it out 😂. Hope you’re well!
@@chrislostinflorida well you’re doing amazing, so professional in such a short space of time - I think you’ve found your callling...... 🥰
🥰
I need both your scooter and your trainers. Thank you. Size 8
😂. I’ll take you sneaker shopping when you get here 😂. 👟 🛴
Was it dubbed or is my sound well off.
There was a small 20 second audio sync issue at the very beginning, but other than that its good :). Thanks for watching! 😊
@@chrislostinflorida perfect! I loved it
