    Hi Gayna, I am one of your older viewers - I am 73. I was born in Surrey, England and moved to Canada with my parents and sister when I was 14. I now live just outside Vancouver. I have been watching your podcasts for a few years now but don’t often comment. I love your home and the scenery and watch while I’m knitting. I have a wonderful grown daughter and son, but no grandchildren. I really enjoy seeing your boys! I have a 3 year old miniature schnauzer who is wonderful company and keeps me going on good long walks. My husband passed away when we were in our fifties so I have had to make a different life for myself. I have lots of friends and belong to a great knit group. I’m not sure you needed to know all of that but you asked for comments about age and I got a bit carried away! Love your podcast as it has knitting, but love the animals and cooking and you! ❤

    Hi Gayna! I’ve been watching for many years now. I just turned 55 yesterday and live in Quebec Canada. I’m also a chicken mom, have a white golden doodle and two rescue cats. I enjoy gardening but this year haven’t been able to keep up. I am recovering from having a radical hysterectomy due to uterine cancer. I’m on the mend and look forward to catching up on my knitting and UA-cam.

    Hi Gayna, I am a long-time viewer. I am 61 and live outside of Philadelphia in the States. I've always been single and currently live with 2 cats. My friend Carla and I talk about how much we wished you were our neighbor, since you seem like such a lovely, kind person.
    Saucers of beer will help to eradicate slugs. They are attracted to the beer, crawl in and drown. A sad death, but not painful for them.
    I do love chickens as well. They have such funny personalities and make the best sounds. You could tie a different color of string or yarn around one of their ankles to help identify them, or even paint a toenail or two. We had good luck with either in helping to keep who was who.

    Hi Gayna, I am definitely one of your older viewers at age 64. My children are grown and making their own homes with their young families. I am retired and enjoy many of the same hobbies that you enjoy. I craft, sew, cook, garden etc. I watch from the east coast of the US, but our climates are similar enough, that I have learned a lot about gardening from you. I just love your vlogs and I have been watching for a very long time.

Your life is so different than mine right down to the temperature. I have no kids and have never been married. I wander quite a lot, careers, jobs and states. I love seeing such a different perspective. Your hens are very lovely. They’re so lucky to be with you now!

Love all your videos and have been a long time viewer. Thanks for all you share with us.

I’m just hitting 60 this year and have become an empty nester recently. Planning on going back into the work force as a substitute teacher just so I don’t get bored but I do love my knitting/crafting time.

Well you asked how old we are, here goes, I celebrated my 80th birthday 5 days ago. I was most unhappy to be THAT age . Don't feel it, don't act like it and have been told don't look it(which I will take greedily). First birthday without John my husband. I didn't want the day to come but it did, I was hugely spoilt with cards, gifts and outings. It went on for a few days and today is first day relaxing at home on my own and literally blobbing. But, as from now I am counting backwards. My son said, ' OH Mum, it's only a number". Well Stephen, you wait to 'til you get there and see how you feel.I must admit where has all the time gone, my life has definitely been in segments and eras, good memories.How brilliant to get those eggs so early in the piece.Oh I forgot(see that's already happening, oh golly) I live in the middle of the North Island New Zealand. In an agricultural area, big farms, country towns, a city 30 minutes away on the mighty big Waikato River.Look forward to seeing you next time. Hugs

I have the same problem with snails that have destroyed the two kale plants given me by a friend. One plant didn’t last the night and the other is now just a stalk with the tiniest bit of leaf on top. The snail must be saving that bit for his breakfast.

    Love the catch up and seeing your new chickens. I am 64 and live in SE Essex. I've been watching your vlogs since the lock downs. I retired 6 weeks before the first lock down and was missing the female chit chat. I loved seeing you and your family, dogs and hamsters. Your garden is beautiful and I can't believe you don't like gardening. I enjoy watching your daily life and your busyness lol! Plus all your sewing, knitting and crochet.

    Hello Gayna
    I liked your top it will soften & drape a little like linen does but not like a jersey fabric or muslin but it looks nice on & the black skirt looked chic
    The hens will get to know your routine let’s hope they are safe 🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓

    Hi Gayna I guess I’m in the oldies camp as I’m 61. I love the podcast I love seeing the chickens that sadly I don’t have room to have. I love the gardening and the crafting . I know what you mean about new flower beds my whole garden is only in its third year and very slowly taking shape . Cosmos is a good shout maybe some Japanese anemones The plants that are doing super well this year are the astrantia they have flowered like troopers even in our really cold wet summer The slugs were treating parts of my garden as an all you can eat buffet. I use egg shells but have had the best results with beer traps

    Hi Gayna , great vlog. I’m from Northern Ireland and am 67 and enjoy the range of things that you cover in your vlog. I knit ,sew and garden. So cross that slugs have destroyed so many plants, I go on a slug hunt early morning and late evening and still they chomp the plants. My husband thinks I’m nuts because I count how many slugs I’ve collected and so far this year it’s over 1500 and chuck them in the ditches in the surrounding fields, he says they are the same ones having returned to bug me . Your garden looks amazing.

Always enjoy your podcast but oh those chickens are adorable x Oh I live on the north west coast of England

My garden is lacking colour too all that rain and cold wind living in SW Scotland hasn’t helped. Looking forward to your next vlog.

I have a rescue dog (no chickens or hamsters-yet!), no human kids. I knit more than anything but I do some crochet and cross stitch and I’m finally learning to use my sewing machine. I love watching your vlogs and appreciate your eco efforts and you’ve taught me a thing or two! Thanks for sharing your days with us

    Your chickens have settled in so quickly and look right at home. They clearly bring you so much joy. Wonderful to watch. I’m 71 (still seems bonkers!) three children, six grandchildren. I live in a village outside Bury St Edmunds - a lovely part of the world.

    Hi Gayna. For someone who doesn't like gardening you're doing pretty well with those vegetables. So glad the chickens are settling in well, even Toby enjoys them. I'm 65 with 3 grown up children, and have 2 grandchildren. We're waiting for gcse results for one of them so everything crossed at the moment 😂. Love your blogs and seeing what you'll get up to next. Thank you for sharing your exploits with us.

    Hi Gayna,
    I too am one of your older viewers, I was 69 on Tuesday 16th. I found you through Ali’s vlogs ( Little Drops) and am enjoying your podcasts/vlogs.
    I have just signed up to your patreon and am starting to watch from the start, I may not see every single one but hopefully at least 95% of them. I knit, crochet and do cross stitching, currently stitching Christmas cards for my three granddaughters and knitting the Cosy Memories blanket( mitre squares) which I saw Jools of Sew Sweet Violet making and loved it.I am also starting Sandra’s at Cherry Heart’s Battenburg Blanket. I live in Tipperary, Mid West Ireland. It’s a cold summer here too. X

Get a lot of tips and inspiration and do not need to buy those fancy (and expencive) magazines anymore :-) I live in an apartment in our capital and get to dream about living in a countryside with a big garden etc. when I watch your content. Keep on doing this.

    Hi I loved seeing the chickens, my Granddaughter goes to a forest school and they have chickens which the children look after. She loves them so much, lots of chicken cuddles. I’m 67 in a couple of weeks and love the humour in your videos, I live by the sea in the north of England and we have had such wintery weather the last few weeks, 12 degrees with a north wind off the sea, not good at all. Thanks for the video 😊
