4:48 that's your Chinese Zodiac! The big font says "Monkey" and the other stuffs are written just like Simon Minter this year, this zodiac. It's a Hanging Scroll made with your Chinese Zodiac. That's beautiful.
you and talia are so good together man. the way she pays interest in everything that was a part of your life and was soooo engaged. you were sooo happy to share everything with her. this was so unnecessarily wholesome
So as of yet I can't figure out the signature. However, I have information that may assist someone in finding it. The ball appears to be from Richmond RFC, at this time they were sponsored by Oracle. This places the date of the ball itself firmly in the late 90s. I believe that sponsorship went live in the 1997-98 season. It ended in the 98-99 season. Oracle was the major financial backer of Richmond RFC at this time to the tune of 500k, the largest sponsorship in the league. However the team was spending 2.5m on wages and in dire financial troubles. The club following the 98-99 season went into administration and the Oracle sponsorship ended. So the LIKELY date of that signature would be 1997-99 while the club was partnered with Oracle. And being branded for the club. I would assume it is likely that a player from the club in that time was the signer.
@williamd-e144 I'm not even sure it's meant to be an S or what it is. Makes it very hard cause clearly it was something they uniquely did. But Scott Quinnell has a ton of autographs out there and is easily identifiable. Statbunker had a bunch of their roster lists from those years like for the TB Cup but the site appears to be having trouble loading lately. On those and their 1997 Draftguru roster list, very very few names match near the end of the signature. Where it seemingly goes from a rise like a T into a drop like a Y. Not those exact letters or anything. But there were like 3 names of lesser known players that seemed to fit the general look of it. But none of them have examples online to compare to. All I can safely say is it doesn't look like any of the big big name players like Quinnell. Unless they changed their signature around this time as well before becoming a sought after autograph
@calgammo9255 The big issue is a lot of the letters don't appear to be what they are. Whoever's signature it was appears to have had a bit of a flair. Otherwise it looks like it starts with an S or a G with a custom touch to it. The letter that goes low appears to be a j. Which that alone throws a wrench in it. But then the letter before that is inconclusive, but whatever it is, it exits low and then goes up as if to do an R. And they transistion that R into the J. Which even moreso makes less sense but could just be an artisitic decision. Then after it looks like an L followed by something else. So someone added some artistic flair to their signature so even identifying letters to look at players is difficult. Until statbunker is back up which is the only place I've seen a player list, I can't do much else
@@SukayoBaka07the letter simon wrote to her which almost made talia's sister teared up on stream guess we will never find out what was written in it which is Understandable
Nicest item for me personally has got to be the Mahjong set for sure, growing up playing old fashioned board games like that with aunties brings so many heartfelt good memories/feelings! (Also great vid!!!;)) 👍🏼💯
Love these vlogs. Got to do more even if it just vlogging random stuff as this video was good and wholesome. Also some of the stuff brought some memories from old videos of Simon’s, memories.
the beaker with the stand is a small yardy [yard ale] in new zealand when you turn 21 its a thing where you drink a yardy full of beer or 21 shots but that one looks small af
These boxes were better than the gifts Simon received in the recent SIDEMEN video
not the promo
well it’d have to be its his childhood, not random parcels
Talia making fun of how posh Simon is, is the best thing ever 😂😂😂 man was a real posh kid
"Berko rah"
That’s not really posh imo

15:05 Please boot up the gameboy advance and visit your old save files for a video
Unfortunately the battery on the games is probably dead so the save files would be gone
@@nitronintendolper4506 It's not to hard to replace the batteries

This was such a wholesome video. Love these type of vlogs.
00:10 love how they both have a redbull to prepare for the task

19:29 never seen talia so happy then there😅
Some of those are decor from Simon's (in)famous "hey again, it's me" (and of course his early vids) what a throwback for OG fans
I think the Chinese sign must be the one that was on the wall.
and the how to wear a hat vid

Looking at the S at the start of the signature I think it would be Scott Quinnell

Simon knowing about The Vancouver Canucks and having a jersey of theirs is so funny to me.
Love the vlogs hanging out and sorting stuff at home, especially with Talia ❤
Simon: “its impossible!”
Talia: “done it!”

with 2pc Chicken Tenders!
I hope everyone feels the nostalgia I do watching this.
You NEED to do a video going through the saves on those pokemon games!
You are so talented, keep making videos!
How you explain things is amazing!
You could make a video starting those games with your old save files if the GBA still works.
I love how proud of you she was when you were showing your trophies. This is a great vid
I really enjoy the vlogs, thanks Simon
The glass with a frame is a beer glass btw
Minter about to be a dad oh my days😂

A family wax seal would actually be sick for holiday letters and such.
The Texas AM hat threw me cuz I didn’t expect Simon’s brother attended 😭
The Chinese writing roughly translates to “Golden Monkey gives luck to Simon Minter. Give to Simon Minter as a gift.”

Those PL panini sticker books bring back so many memories.
You should do a video with Randy going through your old Pokemon save files
