A Cosy Caravan Christmas - with Special Guests!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 гру 2022
- Join Dougal and me as we celebrate Christmas in the caravan in a calm, cool, chill kind of a way. Christmas need not be a time of stress and excess, it can be a time of calm to reflect on the small but very important pleasures in life: A cup of tea shared with a friend, a walk on the beach, a quiet evening curled up with a book, the smell of a freshly peeled clementine...
There are also people who spend Christmas on their own, and this video portrays a quiet Christmas alone in a positive light - you don't HAVE TO be surrounded by people in order to have a happy and fulfilling Christmas.
There is, however, a small twist to the tale, and I hope you enjoy it.
I'd like to say a massive THANK YOU to Eilidh Carr of the Coralbox in Berneray for her help. Do check out the Coralbox for some lovely gifts and decorative items at: coralbox.ecwid.com/
Dougal and I wish you all a very Merry Christmas, thank you for your support, and we will see you very soon in 2023.

A great little clip Andrew. Very enjoyable, thank you. A nice nod to the wonderful companionship of Dougall too who could be a brother or cousin to my spotty black and white Foxy friend whom I treasure every day as he is getting older.

What a beautiful spot there right by the beach with nobody else around! Merry, merry christmas Andrew & Dougal!! Love the tree! Twig trees are very 'in' at the moment! What a lovely gesture, giving your 'airstream' ornament to your friends! Great to see Eilidh, looking really well and you look so much happier and healthier too, I hope you've had a nice long rest! I'm just having a rest after looking after my mum for 3 days, I am absolutely knackered! Poor mum can hardly walk and I may have done my back in!! Nevermind, she's more important! Great festive video, you always capture the right mood! I so enjoyed it, loved the music you chose especially the one you played on a video when you got the airstream back after it seemed a lifetime! I Get Up, John Coggins, love it, so catchy and makes you want to sing along and dance! Have a joyeous Christmas with family and I hope the new year is a very productive, creative and dynamic one for you and Dougal Goose!! Tons of Christmas love and hugs xxx 🐕☃❣🎅🎄😘🥰
Glad you enjoyed it Anne! Sorry to hear about your mum. Nevertheless I hope you have a lovely Christmas xx
.A lovely festive video. A great way to start Chistmas Andrew. 👍🏻

Thanks so much Barbara!
Yet another fantastic and heart-warming video Mr. Ditton, thanks for cheering us all up , I'm sure Dougall cracked a little grin when your antlers fell down , but thats maybe just the effects of a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon on my old eyes, once again , many thanks for the enterttainment over the past year , Nollaig Chridheil agus Bliadhna Mhath Ùr

Merry Christmas to you too Ray!
Oh, thank you for everything you put into this. Loved the mood of this video and all it communicated. You are creating a salve for the soul for your viewers and I hope you continue with this. Very best wishes for 2023 to be exactly what you need it to be.
Glad you enjoyed it Jackie - I certainly enjoyed making it! But the sad fact is, it took me two weeks to make and despite being the highest quality video I've done for a long time, it's also the lowest performing. UA-cam is a frustrating place like that :(
Merry Christmas Andrew and Dougal. ☃️❄🎄
What beautiful landscape to see the end of year out.
Glad you enjoyed it Robert. Merry Christmas to you too!
My kind of Christmas. Thank you for filming this because watchng it has uplifted my spirit .

A very merry Christmas to you too Andrew and Dougal. We are spending Christmas in the South of Wales with our best friends. And it is a very special one, because today we have scattered some of our dog Sam's ashes on a klif. We really wanted to bring him to the UK (we are Dutch) because he has spent so many vacations here. Happy paw prints everywhere..
Seeing you with Dougal brings back so many happy memories of Sam. Give Dougal an extra big hug from me.. ❤️
Thank you both for another year of beautiful content. I wish you all the best in 2023 😘
Aww, that sounds like a very bittersweet experience. As you'll no doubt see or have seen, I am already preparing myself for that awful day. Happy New Year to you xx
@Andrew Ditton thank you. It was bittersweet indeed.. now we 'only' have 15 years of happy memories to look back on. Which we cherice..
Happy new year to you and the pack! ❤️ I hope Dougal will adopt his little wee brother soon 🙏
A lovely video Andrew and Dougal, every campers Christmas dream. 🎄
Glad you enjoyed it, Happy New Year to you!
