Hey there! Been working on some new videos recently. Coming soon will be an update on my allotment patch and garden where I've been growing things all summer (I grew some mega Chinese cabbages)! Also I became a delivery driver for the past couple of months which has been super interesting. Let me know if you want to see a little film about that too. And soon I'm heading to Japan to live, work and ski for the winter! Will obviously document that experience as usual. :) Video uploads won't be frequent over the next year I'm afraid, it's just the nature of the videos that I will be making, but I hope you stick around for them because there's a real odd mix of things coming. :) See ya soon!

Hey followers of my channel. Sorry for the lack of uploads recently. I’ll be honest… I’m really lazy right now. Currently sat in the Swiss alps with my ‘pukka pad’ lol making plans for a few upcoming videos. These include learning how to brew beer… and MEAD! Yay. Also trying to sort an allotment near my new place in Bristol so that’ll be a fun project to work on. And also ‘The BIG Project’… which is a secret for now. Thanks for the continued support, appreciate it friends!

Wow, this summer has given so much... Honey, vegetables and fresh fish from the sea! All I need now is a dairy cow! These are the harvests from today. I have my honey harvesting video coming next week followed by the last garden update of the year before I move house to Bristol! If you have any video/project ideas, feel free to drop them in the comments, I'd be interested to hear your ideas!

Wow, beekeeping teaches you patience. Two years later and we have a honey crop. Beautiful labels made by 2 talented friends. Much bigger harvest than last year too! 🍯 Video of the honey harvest coming later this year. Time to jar up the rest!

Been a busy few weeks filming a number of different videos including a boating adventure, beekeeping and gardening. I also dressed up as an oompa loompa but that wasn't for a video... Stay tuned for these videos coming soon! :)

Thanks to all of you for the support over the past year! I’m currently working on a number of videos right now that I can’t wait to share soon!

Thanks to all the new subs over the past few weeks. Just wanna give you an update on what’s coming up on the channel soon…

Mushroom growing - I’m attempting to grow a load of oyster mushrooms in my bedroom. I got this mini green house to create a moist atmosphere to grow them in! The video for this will take another month to film.

Microgreen growing - this is a project that involves growing a LOAD of baby plants under an LED grow light and harvesting them when young to use in salads or as nice looking garnish on top of meals! I had my first harvest the other day but there are improvements to be made so I’ll be working on that for the next couple of weeks before I have a completed video.

Beekeeping - There’s not much to show right now as the bees are tucked up in their hive as it’s been so cold. But I made and painted 3 beehive stands that I’m pretty happy with. Again I won’t be able to post a full video on this until a little later on this year…

Veg growing - I’m currently doing some planning and research to see what I should grow this season… as well as veg I want to try growing flowers too. 🌸

A couple of random projects to keep me entertained in the meantime - I’m learning how to fly an FPV drone (the shots you can get with these look so cool!) I’m also visiting a pro oil painter in a few weeks to learn how to paint, so expect to see a video about that at some point soon too.

Sorry for the lack of videos!

Wow 100k subs, that’s a lot of people and I want to thank everyone of you for spending some of your precious time watching this silly kid on YouTube! I didn’t know where this channel was heading when I started it 10 months ago, I certainly didn’t think many people would watch the videos! So thanks a ton!

I think I’ll post less videos this year because the projects that I’ll be working on take more time but I hope each video will be worth watching and will teach something new.

Happy new year 🥳
