    I abso-frickin-lutely love hearing Jon Richardson speak when he's not wearing his stage-persona hat. He's truly charming and erudite and, dare I say, brilliant. And since Russell knows him well and they're so comfortable with one another, their discussion - well, I could listen to them talk all day. 👍👍

      Couldn't agree more. I'm not quite sure what it is - closest I can tell is that I feel a profound combination of admiration/affection/peace/warmth (and perhaps the hint of sadness/frustration he's checking himself on while describing her) Jon seem to feel towards Hannah and how she lived her life. It makes me also understand a bit better perhaps why I gravitated towards Jon's comedy so effortlessly.

    Too long a winter (1973) - Hannah Hauxwell (she would be in her mid 40's), she died when she was 91 years old. A wonderful independent woman who was truly a beautiful soul. A fantastic documentary of its time.

We isolated throughout and he managed to live a couple more years where he was born and where he belonged. I miss him every single day. A fabulous human being without a single nasty atom.

      Too Long a Winter was the first documentary where she was just a small part of it and then so many people wanted to know more about her the BBC went back to focus just on her. The bit of video where she is taken to London for a women's conference and stays in a hotel is heat breaking in a weird way. I think the thing I love about Hannah is that she was so inextricably linked to her place. She was "of" a place and peaceful there in a way so many of us want to be.

    I met a guy in a pub garden who was walking around the coast of the UK with his dog. He's come out of the armed forces, awful mental health and really struggling and embarked on this journey. He was in the paper a few times so folk may have heard of him. Chris. He spoke about the fact that reducing his daily 'challenges' to "where will I sleep", "what will I eat", the basic basic things. He discovered he was much much happier only having basic needs. I can sort of understand it.

      She was only 62 when she left the farm, knowing she had survived too many hard winters. She enjoyed her travels and the cosy cottage she could afford from the land sale, and only went into a care home in her 90s. And don't forget her travels, all the accolades! She was a woman who lived life by and for her own lights. She was as you say, amazing. It was a life incredibly rich in experience by the end.

    Dear Jon, thank you so much for reminding me about Hanna. I, as you, saw her story, and was fascinated about her and her way of live.40 years ago, I was living with no central heating and cold water with 4 children , but I can only guess how hard her life would have been. I've always admired you, but hearing you talk about her with so much admiration, you've got a place in my heart..in a motherly way. Take care of your lovely family.

    I remember the documentary 'Too Long A Winter' around 1972 or 1973 (?). Hannah was only 46 at the time but looked 80, bless her - I was stunned to find how young she actually was. Then she came to public prominence on Esther Rantzen's 'That's Life' programme which brought her to the public's attention. Her books are amazing - do try and find them in charity shops if you can: they're life-affirming.

    Having once considered becoming a monk myself, I totally get where Jon’s coming from and the appreciation for a person like Hannah Hauxwell. (Not familiar with her but I know the type.)
    Even though I have my own family now and live in a city, I try to keep my life as simple as possible. I try to live my life as I have no need to prove anything to anyone though I still feel I have something to share. And maybe, one day, I can still retire from the world and live the last years of my life in a monastic setting.
    Especially in places like America where I grew up, there are far too few people who lived like Hannah, who exemplify that life is more than the pursuit of material wealth or celebrity. 🙏

    PBS in America had this show about a gentleman who moved to Alaska and built his own home near a lake, and spent decades there for all intents and purposes, totally alone save for one delivery by bush plane in the Summer of goods he couldn’t make for himself, like flour. Beyond that, he just lived up there alone with nature, and the feeling it left me with has never changed - peaceful. We’re not meant to be around other people as much as we are now in cities. Far too many people can’t be comfortable alone with themselves, and that's a horrible shame. I think many people were pushed to face that during the pandemic, and it broke a lot of folks. It has to be a conscious choice to turn and face yourself, and be content. It’s perhaps the most important thing you can do.

At 48, never married, no kids, and living a fairly hermitic lifestyle, I can honestly say I've never been happier and cared less what anyone else thinks.

    Hannah was just 46 in 1972, but she did indeed look a lot older. Was a very hard life.

    Knowing that Jon’s personal life was in flux around the time this was recorded adds another layer. Be grateful for what you have, not what might have been.

    it is true Jon that people cant believe or accept that someone is happy being where they are and happywith what they''ve got. They say but you have to try it etc . etc

    Can someone post the documentary "Too long a winter" from 1972 anew? The version that is currently available on UA-cam is visually too deteriorated to enjoy.

    I paused this half way through to watch a documentary on Hannah here on UA-cam. I suggest you do the same if you dont know who she is.

    Fascinating, is it a case of being at peace with yourself cos of limited choices and resigning yourself to make the most of what you have regardless thus being happy and truly contented.... I'm just guessing.

    Bloody hell, I've just been watching some Jake Thackeray videos on UA-cam. Astonishing voice and amazing storytelling. Be aware that he's a man of his time, but I can see how Jon would be a fan.

      “I’d’ve fucked ya” but its cut so the expletive is censored and he says it in a mimic of Jon’s voice

    I liked Hannah but I am so opposite to her, I love being with other people, I hate being alone, I love travelling and seeing new places, I hate where I live, I hate being old and I hate suffering
