    I was watching this the entire time thinking "this feels like an advert for having friends" and then at the end, turns out it was. Fair enough, suppose!

    I've got to say Eoin, I'm a man over in Scotland, and it's pretty great to see very much a more, this side of the Atlantic way of living with rural or just generally useful skills. Most stuff of whatever genre this would come under is American, and not always practical for what would be achievable here. I think that its a great thing to see you having a call to speak up for the mental health of men as well in this video, as anything pro-man isn't too popular with the way our world is going. Keep it up, I'm very new to your posts but I'll be having a mosey and I'll surely be commenting with questions more often. Have a great day.

    As someone who lives a mile from Lough Corrib, has spent far too many hours watching wood working and boat building videos, and even dabbled in building my own little boat, it's an utter disgrace that youtube has kept this channel hidden from me.
    Savage quality videos without the typical "WHAT'S UP UA-cam?! TODAY WE'RE GONNA DO THE 24 HOUR CURRACH BUILD CHALLENGE" intensity you sometimes see. Great to see.
    I'd offer an extra pair of hands if ya ever needed it on a project as I'm guessing you're just a county or two north of me and I'd love to see your setup, but I doubt you'd be inviting randoms off the internet to your house.
    Also, that tip of dipping the oars is class, or as you said the petroleum jelly.

    I've not heard of November until now andI 'm glad to hear of the push behind it as there is a great need in my corner of the globe and world wide as well I image. It follows a parallel track as in Proverbs 27:17
    "Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another", and Ecclesiastes 4:12 "Though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him-a threefold cord is not quickly broken"..and then digging deep to understand and put to practice the wisdom.
    It's seems a natural thing to do on the pitch or on the mat, or in battle but on the battlefield of male thinking and emotion ...not so much. Call or drop in on that guy whose personality seems changing or the guy who seems a loner by choice and perhaps is.

    Smoke follows beauty but when it follows too closely speak the words "I hate rabbits." I suppose coneys could be substituted. I kin not where this started or why it works but I learned it from some more or less wholesome but rowdy Boy Scouts around'78-'80. That was when cars came with radios capable of AM and FM and antennas or broken antennas and shirt hangers because some Boy Scouts liked to have sword fights in random retail parking lots. Yep, last century.
