    My heart hurt watching this video. From being a child up until my late 40's I spent many many happy hours walking in North Yorkshire, weekends away, craft fairs, watching sheepdog trials, visiting ropemakers and the like . In my 50's I became ill, could no longer drive or travel and now at 60, I know I will never see such beautiful countryside again. It is so hard to imagine my world without the wild open countryside in it. But thanks to you, I can continue my journey through your travels and 'exploits' 😉 Bless you and Thank you so much x

    I'm a big fan of the American TV show and man Mr Fred Rogers. When I was a young child in kindergarten I would watch Mr Rogers every afternoon and I considered him to be one of my friends. This episode reminded me of how Mr Rogers would take us on adventurers around his neighborhood. Thank you for sharing this fun delivery of your Christmas gifts that with love and joy you created to share.

    How lovely t see where you live. I talk to you while your cooking with ideas and you must hear me because you usually do them which makes my husband laugh. When I was young my grandmother and my mum use to glue flowers together they did thousands every week and if they did to many I would throw them in the air what a naughty child lol no different now.

    AH, such domestic and old-fashioned delights! I wondered if the chocolate might be too bitter but then realized that you probably knew what you were doing--with the cherries and all! I loved the bit about remembering our teachers (from the part 1 video). The drive through the country, the winding roads, the hedgerows, the stone walls -- all so scenic and what one hopes to see of the English countryside. Thank you as always for sharing your life with us!

I was a trip of a lifetime for me. Unfortunately my Dads health made it too difficult to do anything but day trips out of London, via bus or train. Lovely scenery in your region Kate. Thank you

Even though I am almost 40, I find you and your channel comforting and peaceful ... almost like being hugged from a grandmother or mother. I live my life similar to yours in a lot of ways. I hope I can teach and give love to my children the way you give to others. I just joined Patreon and look forward to your future videos while I watch all the past ones.

I also want to thank you for asking people to leave the politics at the doorstep, so that we may have a lovely time chatting about our missed friends, our craft projects and our beloved furry and feathered friends. You are an angel in my life at this point. Sending a virtual hug. Adele.

      @@joysedgwick812 😂🤣 being a New Zealander I never thought of that.
      I did watch a program once where they were building a stone wall ..it was fascinating and so clever. Just natural for me to think fence instead of wall 😆💐
