After last weeks full on chatty, chatty catch up with relatives weekend, we are both looking forward to a much more meandering mooch through Saturday and Sunday this week. It's lovely to have folk to stay, but it's also nice to have your space back to yourselves isn't it. Although we are lucky that the top floor of Alan's house is perfect for guests, with it's lovely big bedroom, great views and it's own large en-suite shower room.
This weekend I will be catching up on my YouTube viewing, Instagram posting and reading the last few chapters of my current book ... it's very good this one. 😊
Here for your entertainment, if you choose to have a little peruse of them, are some of the recent YouTube channels I've been watching.

Weary Wolf Adventures - budget food challenges, new allotment planning and simple recipes from a man that's learning as he goes and has a lovely family.

Java Bere - lovely filmed clips of her home and Hebden Bridge (where we went on holiday last year), just calmly filmed and voiced over videos. They are currently on holiday in France and she shares daily on Instagram.

Rewilding Jude - a willing to have a go at anything, really likeable young man, living in Scotland and slowly putting together his first ever small holding. Living with his cat Sven and building a life for both of them.

Kris Atomic - an always beautifully filmed, relaxing series of videos charting their lives on the British canal system in their 72ft narrow boat. Her eye for detail is amazing and it makes for wonderful Sunday morning viewing.

And finally a channel that I watch every Saturday morning, Flawless Cleaning. Ben and his family and friends work hard, and for free to help various people, mostly pensioners, claim back their gardens and their homes. It's real feel-good viewing.
If you watch any YouTube what are the channels that you have been watching most recently?
Hope you have a lovely weekend whatever you are up to.

Thank you for the YouTube recommendations.
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure, I hope you enjoy a couple of them. xx
DeleteLovely boxed set of Jane Austen classics there.
ReplyDeleteTQ for the recommendations. I tend to watch YouTube when I need instructions for a crafting activity, but these lifestyle posts look great.

They were a birthday present off Alan this year. :-)
DeleteI agree, having visitors is lovely, but it's equally lovely when they go home! Visitors exhaust me nowadays, it's such a lot of extra work for me, whilst husband just breezily chats away without any thought of helping with anything. Thanks for the vid ideas, I'll look at some this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteIt was all the talking that gets to me, and all the eating out which Alan and they wanted to do. Next time I am going to put my foot down and some good old home cooking at least a couple of times. We do split the labour, when it's my relatives staying over I do the prep of the room and the washing after, when it's Alan's he does it.
DeleteThanks for sharing the video links-I watched the one about Jim’s kitchen. What a blessing there are some good people in the world. Catriona
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely how people from all over the world rallied to help Jim wasn't it, and also to see him bloom with the interaction with all the guys working.
DeleteThank you for the video links. I hope to watch some of them, soon. I've been watching lots of decluttering videos, lately.
ReplyDeleteDecluttering videos are brilliant for inspiring me to keep on top of things.
DeleteThat last one, Flawless Cleaning, looks right up my street - thanks for that.
ReplyDeleteI’m more and more a quiet-life person, I saw someone described as a gregarious loner and thought, yep that’s me.
Especially when it comes to big social occasions.
They are a great bunch of guys, and it all started with Ben filming himself pressure washing peoples driveways and doing the occasional freebie for people.
DeleteThat description fits me perfectly too.
I love quilting you tubes and can watch them for hours,
ReplyDeleteI think they are some of the few that I have never felt the urge to watch, luckily there is so much available on YouTube that we can all pick our favourites can't we. :-)
DeleteThank you for the new channels. I live a very quiet life overall and just love seeing how others live.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
It's a good way to have a little peek into other peoples lives, real people instead of the soap opera characters and 'celebrities' that so many seem fixated on these days.
