    Lovely to just have this Q&A session. It felt fun and cozy. Thank you. The math-teacher joke of the day was right up my alley! Wish I was still in the classroom so I could use it! Salam wa sa’aadah

    Thank you that was lovely getting to know you all. Very much the same as you came to Scotland for husbands work. My kids also went to many schools as my husband was in the army including abroad. Good luck in your studio 😊

    Finally got the chance to finish watching this. Helen and Thom, you are such a lovely couple and are raising 2 amazing boys.
    It’s always a pleasure to see what y’all are up to. You’re my only vlogmas family that is “all in” for the videos and it gives us so much variety.
    Thank you for sharing the stories about your family. All the stories were great, but that “postage paid” break up letter really caught my attention. 😮 You were both destined for each other and the other young lad just formally bowed out to make space for “Tom” with an “h”. ♥️😉♥️
    Merry Christmas to you and your whole family! 🎄😘

      I really enjoyed my psychology degrees and if I hadn't ended up doing what I'm doing yarn I definitely would have continued with it, I still consider going back and doing a PhD one day 😬

    Loved this 🥰 my husband and I got together in 2006 as well, I was 18 and he was 21, although we didn’t get married until 2014. A giddy retreat sounds amazing! I really hope it works out for you. You’ve really made me want to visit Dundee with all your lovely vlogs ❤ xx

    I totally get Thom's need to spell his short name differently 😄 I went for a western spelling just because, and now everyone spells it like this even at work. Good luck with the studio! I hope it works out 🤞

    I just love watching both of you! You are such a lovely couple 🥰, & so well suited 💕. It was lovely finding out more about both of you as well. I have often thought Arthur could easily be mistaken for a girl as he is a very good looking boy. It’s great as well that when you mentioned he often gets mistaken for a girl, he doesn’t feel pressured into getting his hair cut. Well done Arthur 👏👏 cheers 😊👏🥰❤️😍🤗😘

    • @GiddyKnits
      @GiddyKnits  7 місяців тому

      He's well and truly set on having his hair long, and copes very well with it when people get his gender wrong, as long as its someone who doesn't know him. He had a few issues with some boys at school last year teasing him and saying he should be in the girls line etc and that upset him but he still kept strong and wanted his long hair.

    The peanut quality street was called Peanut Cracknell
    "Peanut Cracknell: It was packaged in a blue wrapper and tasted like peanuts covered in rich chocolate."

    It is Thomas in the states. Great Q&A.

    • @GiddyKnits
      @GiddyKnits  7 місяців тому

      Good to know! My brain suddenly thought that the American language tends to miss out the supernumerary letters English often uses in words so maybe it did it with Thomas too but obviously not.

    Thomas in America, Tomas in spanish speaking countries with the accent on the second syllable.

    My son is Tom, but in Wales, it's Tomos.
    It was a cracknel in Quality Street and I miss it too 😭
    Tom had long hair up until last year, so until he was 14. He was misgendered loads, especially as a baby/toddler, but he couldn't care less. He is a Grade 8 rock guitarist and long hair is anything but girly 😂

    • @GiddyKnits
      @GiddyKnits  7 місяців тому +1

      Arthur is very happy with his long hair, we've always said it's their hair they can do what they want with it. He takes it in his stride being misgendered too, he's always said if it's someone he doesn't know then it's fine he understand but when it's someone he knows doing it on purpose then it's annoying.

    • @wildmagicyarns
      @wildmagicyarns 7 місяців тому

      @@GiddyKnits That's what we've said too. His hair, his choice. I was a bit gutted when he went shorter, but he loves it so that's all that matters ☺

  • @savyjett
    @savyjett 7 місяців тому

    I’m the opposite if Thom name-wise. My name is misspelled (purposefully by my father who is Mathew with one “t”), I’m Savanah with one “n”. As a kid, I was never able to get personalized stuff that was really popular in the late ‘80’s and 90’s. 😂😂 Also, even though they have to spell it right to send me an email, most of the time it’s spelled wrong in the body 🙄😁

    • @GiddyKnits
      @GiddyKnits  7 місяців тому +1

      Jasper can never get personalised stuff either 🙈 we didn't think that through when we names him 😆 Arrhur was the same when he was little but the name has had a really resurgence in thr last few years so you can generally find it now.
