    About half the people in my country have lost touch with reality and it is scary. Your videos are bright spots in my week and I thank you for them. You, your kittens, your friends and fam, your garden, all remind me that there is so much goodness, love and joy in the world. Sending much love back to you, Ban and Beag!

      The violence and hatred seems to be part of the world's landscape right now. It certainly weighs heavy on our collective hearts. I agree that the YT community is a special group of people more interested in learning, growth and improvement. Our community must remain loving, understanding and most of all supportive of our likes and our differences. Keep up what you are doing. Catherine, our world needs more channels like yours! ❤

    I am seriously rethinking all of my social media simply for the reason that folks will pick and pee and whinge and moan over even the most innocent of posts. My first thought when I saw the news from Dublin last week was of you, and I am so happy you're safe. This world.....I agree with your sentiments, but won't belabor it here. This channel is for sharing the love of what you find pleasing to you to feed the souls of others with love and inspiration, too. And for naughty cheeky kittens climbing Christmas trees!

    My dear Catherine you’re not alone, I’ve cancelled regular tv channels here in Northern California because the news is depressing and no matter what it seems to be getting worse every where… UA-cam, BritBox, and Netflix is all that I need. I still am aware of world events but have to protect my mental state if you know what I mean. You can just get overwhelmed by it all.
    We do have a nice community of like minded folks that love you and Karen, plus I watch Iwan and Luke, and a couple others that brighten my days, provide inspiration too.
    The kitchen remodel is going to be perfect. Looking forward to part 2. Catherine you are a sweet young woman who provides joy, smiles, and wonderful chit chats. Love the furry ornaments hanging out in the tree… those mischievous little kittens are too adorable.
    Sending you softest hugs and prayers for peace and safety . ❤❤❤❤

    I grew up with the sitting room where only the fancy tea were drunk and the dining room we lived in. But having that extra sitting part is such a waste of space. Could rather make it a work room for needlework art but that's the way things worked years ago. Very nice of you to pressure yourself just to keep us happy with a video on sunday. The kitchen is going to be so practical

    Hi Catherine, the project for Nanny will turn out great. So sorry your country is in a struggle. We in Wisconsin also have had struggles, and people from other states get involved and loot and burn down stores, its scary and crazy. And these actions had nothing to do with what happened. Prayers for you and your Dublin's healing. Can't wait for part 2 on kitchen. Thank you

    Hatred seems to be a big thing all over at the moment and it upsets me a lot too. However as you say, channels like yours are a nice link to nice and normal things, so a big thank you for that. These channels can be such a nice community to belong to and a lovely escape. My grandmother was my Nanny, my granny was my great grandma, I am my granddaughters Nana which I love being called. My Nan had the front 'best' room too, for meeting potential new girlfriends and boyfriends, for wedding receptions, or funeral gatherings, it was alwasy kept just so to be used at a moments notice! I do like a dining room though and we use ours a lot. I am looking forward to be seeing the transformation completed of this kitchen. My mum had a saying, keep on keeping on, its all we can do, so chin up and carry on being you, we all appreciate it.

    I’m sorry for the trouble in your city, it can see how that would be very heartbreaking and concerning. It’s smart to distance yourself from a lot of the negativity and evil.
    I like to see you working on new projects, it’s fun and also informative. Nanny Siobhan is lucky to have you in her life! The kittens are so cute!
