Absolutely my favourite UA-camr ever. I have watched you since the bo2 zombies! Thank you for all these amazing videos and congrats on this amazing project
So sorry for coming late to watching this one Tom but I wanted to have the time to watch it in full .. such a beautiful place to bring up Alfie with Lydia .. just stunning. Lydia is such a beautiful person I’m sure with her love and support you can achieve anything ❤
should make a new channel called "The Syndicate Project" (i think this was your original name?) for the secret project, itd have a little nostalgia added to it and be quite a literal name
Mate. The way Lydia looked at you at 1:17:12… she loves every thing about you and is so proud of everything you have achieved and how you are making this all about the family. Can’t ask for more than that mate… that’s worth more than every millimetre of that land. Good luck farmer Tom!
Tom I'm a farmer in Northampton and it's amazing to be able to see that you are able to keep this amazing bit of land away from developers. I hope you and your family enjoy every minute. 🚜
I would also recommend letting farmers lease your fields to hay. That way you create some sort of residual income, but it allows the farmers to have some land to hay.
It makes sense. He said its 110 acres. Even if he only leases say 40 acres. He still has 70 acres of space to do what ever he wants with. It makes sense to lease some of it to make money an flip into building a new house.
@@rossdurban8189if he puts stables in wouldn’t that be quite close proximity to horses around bonfire night and from his videos in the past he loves a display and I imagine would want to do something on the land. Obviously can’t avoid them but not sure if I’d want to keep my horses right next door to where I know there’ll be a lot going off
What say ye syndicate? It’ll give you more than the £14 you have in your account now or whatever it may be 😂😉 plus you’ll be giving back to farmers which is always a blessing in disguise. Make a trade, get the tractors and equipment working for land rights 🤷🏽♂️
This land, in my opinion, is way better than the mill. The amount of potential that the property has is insane. My mouth was pretty much on the floor during the entire tour. Honestly man, hats off to you. Congrats Tom! You guys have earned it. (P.s. One hundred percent agree with everyone for calling it "The Syndicate Project")
The mill is awesome but it just doesn’t hold the value this land will. It could never come close. The mill is great and it would be so perfect for commercial purposes. But I mean this land is gonna be worth a billion some day god willing we don’t blow ourselves up lol
Just think of the amount of things he could do with the land to Tom having the mill. Tom and his whole family WILL definitely have so much more fun and i definitely think this is the way to go and Tom has definitely deserved this
I'm so happy for you tom, coming from gaming and working at mcdonalds to having 2 houses next door to one another, becoming a father and making the big decisions you have in the past. keep up the work, YOU are the LEGEND
There will be thousands, if not tens of thousands of pounds worth of scrap metal in there. Make sure you dispose of it at your local scrapyard yourself and reinvest that money into the land. It will save you a small but noticable amount. Do not let someone take it away. Way too much money involved to just give away. Talk to your scrapyard as there are different grades of metal, shearing is usually clean steel with no wood, rubber or other material attached. My local has it at £300 per tonne. Cable, copper, brass, steel, stainless, batteries, piping, lead, vehicles, plant machinery. Speak to them and see what type of prices they have
@@Shawn-Leideryou don't need a dealers license to dispose of your own scrap. I've took loads to scrap yards and got good money just need my details and my bank account.
Not going to lie, i shed a tear for Tommy boy. Been here for years. To see how happy he was to have been aboe to do thisnfor his family and hear all the plans he has for them is extremely awesome. Tom has for sure grown as a man. Proud of you mate. Congrats on the dream coming true.
I'm actually tearing up from how amazing this is. Even when Tom by chance met the neighbours and also bumped into his accountant who's been with him for like 12 years, it really is fate. This makes me so incredibly happy it's making me cry
1:06:45 .... almost started crying. Look at that scene. A young family at the beginning of the new chapter, to the rest of their lives. Beautiful. You've done it, Tommy ❤
Tom has me over here tearing up, got me feeling like im really apart of the family after watching for 14 years im so happy he is living his best life in the world we live in!
from The Syndicate Project and living part time in the US, been here from the start. didnt realise this secret project was this scale. no other person for it. proud of u mate
Tom I think once the bridge over the railway is cleaned up get a plaque on it that says Gordon's bridge. So proud of you for getting the dream secured. I've been watching since the Minecraft and cod zombies days. This vlog brought tears to my eyes, seeing how happy this has made u much love 🎉
From a teenage lad who recorded two old ladies fighting from his bedroom window, to a 31 year old dad who has just secured a dream only some of us can dream of, what a inspiration you are Tom, I tilt my hat sir 🤗
I cried. Pure inspiration for every young kid, teen, and adult. So much to learn from you, Tom. Positivity, priorities, relationships, manhood, health, and more. Truly so proud and grateful to have been following your journey for over a decade
I’m new to your channel , found you via Joe Sugg. Thank you Joe 👍🏼 I tune in every week day to watch your positivity. And just seeing how happy you were showing Lydia your new home to be. I have spent many hours over the last few weeks catching up on past blogs. This 3hr 46 min video went by so fast. I am so happy for you and your family Tom ❤❤
Knew it'd be this piece of land so happy that someone will finally be doing something with it instead walking by seeing it falling apart. So excited for you!
I'm not gonna be able to watch for a bit. Which piece of land did it end up being? I always thought it was gonna end up being the field that borders his home currently.
was pretty obvious and I was always so confused as to why he just never told us lol, he even got rid of the vids of him bringing people to the land after winning it at the auction
The fact the sun set perfectly between the trees along the bridge in line with the old owners home was magical I bet they shared many moments looking at that exact view felt like her gift to your family, madness. Good luck with it all!
“I love that tree” well Tom I think you found the spot to propose on the land. Doesn’t necessarily need to be a complete surprise, just make it magical!
Mate! Never came across your channel before. Came here from partridge cleaning. And I tell you now. I've never been happier for people I have never met or heard of before.. Congratulations to you and Lidia. What an amazing start to the next step of your legacy... I've just subscribed and good luck
Lydia at 1:06:49 is the exact image of a loving mother, (future) wife, and partner. She loves and cares for you more than youll understand and that look is EVERYTHING.
Recommendations to starting the land: clearing out vegetation first. We bought our home on 1.5 acres and that is the first step. If that’s not under control to start it’s a huge headache in the future
Taken me 8 weeks to catch up on 5 months footage, over 5000 minutes to make sure I didn’t miss the secret project. Thank god I was up to date as of this morning, so glad it’s finally over the line for you
I started crying because I felt the overwhelming beauty of the land. I can't stress this enough that I'm soooo grateful that you saved all this land from being houses etc., Tom. This is the ultimate freedom you can get as a human being. And you got to live it with your beautiful family and friends. As an OG viewer this is the moment I couldn't be happier for you. You deserve it all! I am so proud of you, man.The Syndicate Project just got real.❤
Tom you just set up your family for generations on generations you deserve every good that comes your way and to the woman who chose you she was such a good person !!
Seeing how beautiful and picturesque the land is while he’s showing it off is straight out of a movie. The clear skies, the sunset hitting the trees and foliage. It was meant to happen exactly the way it happened!
I want Chris and Tom to be regulars in the vlog and projects! These guys are great! It felt like watching three Hobbits walk around the land and talk about projects and adventures! 🌳
The moment Tom saw the little hat for Alfie melted my heart. Such a great moment and such a great new future for you all. Congratulations Tom. Well and truly deserved
Been watching since i was about 12-13 and I am now 23. Congratulations Tom, this is your moment! Thanks for always giving us the best moments and letting us experience it with you🎉🎉🎉
Tom, I think this has to be one of my favourite vlogs of yours. From Lydia’s special gifts to you, Alfie’s little wellies, your friend’s reactions to all of your land. Then to finish with a ride on your land with your Dad, and then Alfie learning to high five with you is just a perfect end to such a stressful time for you. I’m so looking forward to following your journey and to see what you create, and what shenanigans you get up to on your land 🥰 xxx
Well done TOM. That is a massive achievement, I remember when you pointed to the field behind your house and said I want some land to do what ever I want. Now it is your land to do what ever you want. I wish you the best and you just need to enjoy it.
I’ve silently watched your vlogs for years and years on my ‘big telly’ and I am so pleased for you and your family on your new adventure. I have goosebumps and tears in my eyes. A huge congratulations Tom! 🎉
I legit teared up when you were hugging Lydia and freaking about it finishing up! Congrats can’t think of a more deserving young lad I’ve watched since early Minecraft project days gooood job mate!
❤🎉❤ congratulations Tom. You and Lydia are the new modern day Dorothy & Austin. They were a customer at the bank in Hyde where I worked a warm and genuine couple. Hope you and your family enjoy as much as they did x
id honestly want to build a little village of houses there for my closest family and friends and live in a little community with them all. tom I'm so proud of you. you've inspired me
Definitely needs to be 'The Syndicate Project'! I'm in awe. This is my dream, and I love seeing you and your friends experiencing this!! It's been a while since I've seen you, but to see how far you've come is insane. SO MUCH LOVE and best wishes for you and your family!
TOM 2.32 that’s where you need to propose to Lydia . Your secret project is breath taking so pleased for you both . This is where dreams are made of Enjoy my friend sending hugs xxx
As a kid age 9-10 growing up watching you all these years now 26 has turned me into a swell man, it makes my heart happy to see you go through all the lovely joys of life. Celebrating it with your loved ones. Your grandpa would be pround of you 🎉congratulations brother here’s to the next chapter!!
Quality Tom, what a journey. Proud of you mate. Leaving a legacy behind for your family is what we all dream of and you’ve achieved it. Even better that you’re a fellow northerner!
Crazy having watched you for what must now be over 13 years, seeing you achieve a dream of yours like this for yourself and your family. So so pleased for you all. Totally agree with someone saying that you need to go back to the beginning and call it “The Syndicate Project”. Congratulations again. So so proud and happy for you all.
3:44:35 I’ve cried at so many moments of this vlog. You showing us, you showing Lydia, you showing Tom, the Irish man, your mum and Nino, then your Dad!!! Ending the vlog with a high five from your son, I’m emotional for you. I can not wait for your future to be booming!!!! I’ve commented so many times I’m so sorry😂
Tom! I don’t know you in person but wow! I’m so proud. You deserve this so much . The most genuine kindest guy, who hasn’t let their success get in the way of what’s important in life and that’s family and friends. You’re an inspiration and I’m honoured to be able to watch you on this journey! Please never stop the vlogs 😊
For those wondering, the OG wandering vlog is ‘I’ve Discovered a Problem’ from 12th July, 2023. Congratulations Tom! I literally watched half of it before work (in Australia), and went to work beaming. It’s so lovely watching somebody realise their dreams, especially ones so epic. And the adventure’s only just beginning!
Tom I don't ever comment on your videos but I've been watching them for at least the past 10+ years and I'd just like to say I'm proud of you! Congratulations this is well deserved. Now either call it "The Syndicate Project" or "Syndicate Central"
As someone’s who was raised on an crazy amount of land, and who inherited said land. Your boy will have the best life. I remember every day after school I’d run up my half-mile drive jump in the property jeep and just drive for hours having the time of my life.
I’ve literally not stopped smiling at this whole vlog up to now. I know where this is as I drive past it frequently, huge project, so much space for activities 😂 but massive congratulations, perfect family 🥰
Not even a 3rd of the way through and I’m a grown man crying. You in the field with the family just hits different . Have followed your journey from a streamer in your dad’s house to now and can’t wait to watch for many more years to come. You’re building something special for your family’s future and I couldn’t be happier for you. Congrats Tom and family
Tom, Tom, Tom... you missed a trick there, such a special moment stood over your land, beautiful sunset and your amazing family.... you should have proposed!!!! . Ah.... I'm a little further into the video...seems Lydia thought the same 😭😭 you should have done it!!!
Actually can’t believe how excited I am you have this land Tom! It’s basically my back garden and walk around them fields with the dog everyday! Going to need some serious man power to sort it out but it will look brilliant with the crazy plans I imagine you have in store already! Hopefully I can catch you on the next walk I’d love to have a chat with you about it all!!
Tom, you were my first impression on UA-cam. And let me tell you. It was a good one. To think that over a decade later you’re still going strong makes me feel sad and old. Thank you mate. Cheers to many more years, I’ll be here.
Tom I am currently deployed. Me watching the vlogs and waiting for them each day has made my time away from my wife and kids go by faster. I cannot wait to see all the cool stuff you will do on this land. Blessings to you and your family from Kansas City Missouri
Mate, you was not joking or hyping anything when you said "The Secret Project" was massive and had so much potential as well as being your families future. 110 acres + buildings damn bro, you didn't just buy a gem, you managed to get your hands on a god damn unicorn 🙌..... Enjoy it mate you've smashed it to get it, and heres to the next chapter of "The Syndicate porject - Land Edition".
@@SilverSparrow5there not worth less as it means he build new buildings in the spot with having to apply for planning permission to put a building there
I’m only halfway through due to work but i just want to say congrats Tom! watched you for 10+ years now and to see how far you’ve come and what you have now achieved is unrivalled. also Tom Uptons reaction is so genuine, you’ve got a proper friend there.
Tom, Seeing the likes of your family and friends ( Tom & Chris that I've seen SO FAR) being so supportive and excited for you, It's truly heart warming. Well done, Lad. Truly so deserved.
Actually tearing up here, you've worked so hard for everything you've ever gained, and you deserve this! Congratulations Tom. Life is too short make the most of it, and that you have.
Why am I smiling so much seeing this? I have barely watched your content these past few years, but just the memories of growing up watching you, this makes me genuinely happy and love to see it.
Lydia definitely set that fire so you had to rebuild the house before she lives in it 🤣🤣 I’m so happy for you, I’ve been watching you for as long as I can remember and to see all the chapters you’ve adventured through has been amazing. You could always put a bench with your Grandads name on top of the railway bridge, somewhere for him to sit with you, or a plaque on the bridge ❤
every time Tom says everthing you see from the tree lines I keep thinking that Tom is Mufasa and Alfie is Simba and Tom is like everthing that the light touches is all going to be yours 🦁🌅 Well done Tom so stoked for your next set of adventures involving this land!!!!!
tom what id recommend you do is get a full aeriel shot of the land so you can properly visualise and plot it all out, should help with planning and visualising it all! i remember watching you building your house when i was growing up and cant wait to see where you go with this
25:28 🎉
❤
congrats tom
Love you tom :)
It’s FATE I told you it was gonna happen.
Edit
That was my birthday, August 23, that’s cool.
Absolutely my favourite UA-camr ever. I have watched you since the bo2 zombies! Thank you for all these amazing videos and congrats on this amazing project
Tom. It needs to be plain and simple. Where it all started. Name it ‘The Syndicate Project’
underrated name this.
Absolutely banger of a name
Come on now, perfect choice
Great shout
o7
IT'S OFFICAL! AS OF 20/01/2025 THIS VIDEO HAS HIT 1,000,000 VIEWS!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for watching!
Well deserved mate congrats 🎉 ❤
Well deserved!
I’d love you to do a 12 month comparison showing all the work you guys have done, even though I’ve watched every vlog anyway 😂
Cannot believe how much it’s changed in 5 months. Insane! Well done man.
So sorry for coming late to watching this one Tom but I wanted to have the time to watch it in full .. such a beautiful place to bring up Alfie with Lydia .. just stunning. Lydia is such a beautiful person I’m sure with her love and support you can achieve anything ❤
I can't believe it but you're gonna need:
A) signposts on your land
B) a mini map in the corner of your videos
Facts 😂 we need a mini map
Omg yes
With a uav too for intruders
And some torches for when it gets dark...sorry your comment reminded me of minecraft haha
Donno why they didn't fly in creative mode to show us around
So it's a... Syndicate Project 👀
How the hell am I the first one to find this comment after 5 hours of it being up 😂
Sounds like the one
should make a new channel called "The Syndicate Project" (i think this was your original name?) for the secret project, itd have a little nostalgia added to it and be quite a literal name
The Syndicate playground 🤘
I think a name along the lines of The Syndicate Horizon would be cool
Petition to name the bridge over the railway "Gordon's Bridge". What a ride Tommy! SO worth it
oh definitely, there needs to be something for his grandad
Remind me off the railway children bridge
I came here to say this !! 💙
Put like a little sign on a lamppost next to the bridge with “Gordon’s Bridge” on it would be amazing
Such a good idea
Orion deserves so much credit for editing this vlog!! Legend!!👏👏👏
@@emmabraybrook wonder if he has been on the land
@@Grahamrobinsonvt802oooooh I wonder!!👀
He needs to do camping with his little one on the land.
Give that man a raise

100% 👌
The mill is awesome but it just doesn’t hold the value this land will. It could never come close. The mill is great and it would be so perfect for commercial purposes. But I mean this land is gonna be worth a billion some day god willing we don’t blow ourselves up lol

When Tom said the secret project was small scale in comparison to the mill he straight up lied this is so much better!!
I'm so happy for you tom, coming from gaming and working at mcdonalds to having 2 houses next door to one another, becoming a father and making the big decisions you have in the past. keep up the work, YOU are the LEGEND
The way Lydia looks at you and how proud she is of you while standing on the land is every man’s dream, can’t wait to follow along on this new chapter
Tom uptons reaction was the best so far, he looked at you so proud of you now thats a friend we all need. Congratulations tom and family
I think renovating that bomb shelter and putting a CoD zombies wall buy on the inside would be an incredible easter egg for the land
Doorbell that plays 'FETCH ME THEIR SOULS'
THIS needs more recognition, HELLA good idea!!!
Then he got to add the Box
From watching the Minecraft days as a kid 13 years ago, now as a young man. Absolutely incredible Journey. WHAT A LEGEND 🔥
We made the right person famous.
Onwards and upwards to this new adventure. Congratulations Tom, Lydia and Alfreddo. 🎉
Here here
That's a very good point. No one deserves it more.
Tom, Gordon is looking down at you saying “good job Tommy” he would’ve loved this land. He is proud of you! congratulations mate.

Tom you just set up your family for generations on generations you deserve every good that comes your way and to the woman who chose you she was such a good person !!
Seeing how beautiful and picturesque the land is while he’s showing it off is straight out of a movie. The clear skies, the sunset hitting the trees and foliage. It was meant to happen exactly the way it happened!
I got so so lucky it wasn’t raining! 🤯
I want Chris and Tom to be regulars in the vlog and projects! These guys are great! It felt like watching three Hobbits walk around the land and talk about projects and adventures! 🌳
Had a nice amount of tears in my eyes when you hugged Lydia mate. Go get em
Tom u defo need to get Colin furze involved over the next year aswell. The amount of crazy projects you could build here with him would be insane.
He needs to see this
He really does need to see this
YES!
Yes
i have a feeling he will have something to do with the bomb shelter👀
The moment Tom saw the little hat for Alfie melted my heart. Such a great moment and such a great new future for you all. Congratulations Tom. Well and truly deserved
Been watching since i was about 12-13 and I am now 23. Congratulations Tom, this is your moment! Thanks for always giving us the best moments and letting us experience it with you🎉🎉🎉
at this point Lydia needs a ring Tom
this was the perfect time to propose aswell when they where on the bridge
I was waiting for it…..
He wishes he could afford one at this point!
@@gazzwall 😂 broke Tom jokes for years to come
@@gazzwallI think there’s a chance he might already have the ring
Tom, I think this has to be one of my favourite vlogs of yours. From Lydia’s special gifts to you, Alfie’s little wellies, your friend’s reactions to all of your land. Then to finish with a ride on your land with your Dad, and then Alfie learning to high five with you is just a perfect end to such a stressful time for you. I’m so looking forward to following your journey and to see what you create, and what shenanigans you get up to on your land 🥰 xxx
Well done TOM. That is a massive achievement, I remember when you pointed to the field behind your house and said I want some land to do what ever I want. Now it is your land to do what ever you want. I wish you the best and you just need to enjoy it.
I’ve silently watched your vlogs for years and years on my ‘big telly’ and I am so pleased for you and your family on your new adventure. I have goosebumps and tears in my eyes. A huge congratulations Tom! 🎉
15:55. Totally not seeing Toms gate having a seizure from wind and laughing uncontrollably 😂😂😂
thank you for pointing it out cause i've missed it. it's soo funny XD
Omg same 😂😂
1:18:00 Lydia was defiantly waiting for Tom to go down on one knee 😂 would of been perfect too
Bro has £5 to his name I don't think it would be good timing 🤣
@@scar9he obvs has other accounts with funds incase of emergencies and etc etc
100% lol. The way she scratched her chin at 1:17:18 I thought I was going to see a ring
You should get the drone up over the land, just to give a perspective of how big it actually is
@@rlcreativesfilmstudiosjust got on google maps it’s not hard to find. As soon as saw the rail track it took me 10 seconds to find from toms house
I legit teared up when you were hugging Lydia and freaking about it finishing up! Congrats can’t think of a more deserving young lad I’ve watched since early Minecraft project days gooood job mate!
0:13 😄😄😄😄 First syndicate video I've seen in years.... Good to be back
❤🎉❤ congratulations Tom. You and Lydia are the new modern day Dorothy & Austin. They were a customer at the bank in Hyde where I worked a warm and genuine couple. Hope you and your family enjoy as much as they did x
I am so ready for the next 3hrs 46mins!! Let get this going Tom, beyond excited for you!
id honestly want to build a little village of houses there for my closest family and friends and live in a little community with them all. tom I'm so proud of you. you've inspired me
Definitely needs to be 'The Syndicate Project'! I'm in awe. This is my dream, and I love seeing you and your friends experiencing this!! It's been a while since I've seen you, but to see how far you've come is insane. SO MUCH LOVE and best wishes for you and your family!
TOM 2.32 that’s where you need to propose to Lydia . Your secret project is breath taking so pleased for you both . This is where dreams are made of Enjoy my friend sending hugs xxx
The best bit about the whole video is how buzzing your mates are for you. Like how emotional they are for you. There 1 of a kind. Congrats Tom
As a kid age 9-10 growing up watching you all these years now 26 has turned me into a swell man, it makes my heart happy to see you go through all the lovely joys of life. Celebrating it with your loved ones. Your grandpa would be pround of you 🎉congratulations brother here’s to the next chapter!!
Honestly Tom its insane to see how happy your friends are. You're so incredibly lucky to have such amazing people around you!
Quality Tom, what a journey. Proud of you mate. Leaving a legacy behind for your family is what we all dream of and you’ve achieved it. Even better that you’re a fellow northerner!
Crazy having watched you for what must now be over 13 years, seeing you achieve a dream of yours like this for yourself and your family. So so pleased for you all. Totally agree with someone saying that you need to go back to the beginning and call it “The Syndicate Project”. Congratulations again. So so proud and happy for you all.
3:44:35 I’ve cried at so many moments of this vlog. You showing us, you showing Lydia, you showing Tom, the Irish man, your mum and Nino, then your Dad!!!
Ending the vlog with a high five from your son, I’m emotional for you. I can not wait for your future to be booming!!!!
I’ve commented so many times I’m so sorry😂
Tom! I don’t know you in person but wow! I’m so proud. You deserve this so much . The most genuine kindest guy, who hasn’t let their success get in the way of what’s important in life and that’s family and friends. You’re an inspiration and I’m honoured to be able to watch you on this journey! Please never stop the vlogs 😊
For those wondering, the OG wandering vlog is ‘I’ve Discovered a Problem’ from 12th July, 2023. Congratulations Tom! I literally watched half of it before work (in Australia), and went to work beaming. It’s so lovely watching somebody realise their dreams, especially ones so epic. And the adventure’s only just beginning!
Tom I don't ever comment on your videos but I've been watching them for at least the past 10+ years and I'd just like to say I'm proud of you! Congratulations this is well deserved. Now either call it "The Syndicate Project" or "Syndicate Central"
I think having security for the land is going to be really important so nothing bad happens to changes you make to area.
Is going to be so difficult to ensure people aren’t going on the land, maybe he will need motion cameras
As someone’s who was raised on an crazy amount of land, and who inherited said land. Your boy will have the best life. I remember every day after school I’d run up my half-mile drive jump in the property jeep and just drive for hours having the time of my life.
I’d take this over a penthouse in LA any day of the week. Toms living the actual dream.
Tom's probably one of the only OG UA-camrs that actually deserve all the success he has. So proud of you, brother!
God is good Tom! I'm so beyond happy this land ended up with you and your family. It makes my heart so happy!
I’ve literally not stopped smiling at this whole vlog up to now. I know where this is as I drive past it frequently, huge project, so much space for activities 😂 but massive congratulations, perfect family 🥰
Not even a 3rd of the way through and I’m a grown man crying. You in the field with the family just hits different . Have followed your journey from a streamer in your dad’s house to now and can’t wait to watch for many more years to come. You’re building something special for your family’s future and I couldn’t be happier for you. Congrats Tom and family
Tom, Tom, Tom... you missed a trick there, such a special moment stood over your land, beautiful sunset and your amazing family.... you should have proposed!!!!
.
Ah.... I'm a little further into the video...seems Lydia thought the same 😭😭 you should have done it!!!
Actually can’t believe how excited I am you have this land Tom! It’s basically my back garden and walk around them fields with the dog everyday! Going to need some serious man power to sort it out but it will look brilliant with the crazy plans I imagine you have in store already! Hopefully I can catch you on the next walk I’d love to have a chat with you about it all!!
Tom, you were my first impression on UA-cam. And let me tell you. It was a good one. To think that over a decade later you’re still going strong makes me feel sad and old. Thank you mate. Cheers to many more years, I’ll be here.
Tom I am currently deployed. Me watching the vlogs and waiting for them each day has made my time away from my wife and kids go by faster. I cannot wait to see all the cool stuff you will do on this land. Blessings to you and your family from Kansas City Missouri
Mate, you was not joking or hyping anything when you said "The Secret Project" was massive and had so much potential as well as being your families future. 110 acres + buildings damn bro, you didn't just buy a gem, you managed to get your hands on a god damn unicorn 🙌..... Enjoy it mate you've smashed it to get it, and heres to the next chapter of "The Syndicate porject - Land Edition".
Most of the buildings are worthless. The only cool things are the bridges.
@@SilverSparrow5there not worth less as it means he build new buildings in the spot with having to apply for planning permission to put a building there
I’m only halfway through due to work but i just want to say congrats Tom! watched you for 10+ years now and to see how far you’ve come and what you have now achieved is unrivalled.
also Tom Uptons reaction is so genuine, you’ve got a proper friend there.
Tom, Seeing the likes of your family and friends ( Tom & Chris that I've seen SO FAR) being so supportive and excited for you, It's truly heart warming. Well done, Lad. Truly so deserved.
Actually tearing up here, you've worked so hard for everything you've ever gained, and you deserve this! Congratulations Tom.
Life is too short make the most of it, and that you have.
I'm over an hour in, and I have laughed cried and can not stop smiling. I am so pleased for you and your family Tom 😊
Why am I smiling so much seeing this? I have barely watched your content these past few years, but just the memories of growing up watching you, this makes me genuinely happy and love to see it.
Lydia definitely set that fire so you had to rebuild the house before she lives in it 🤣🤣 I’m so happy for you, I’ve been watching you for as long as I can remember and to see all the chapters you’ve adventured through has been amazing. You could always put a bench with your Grandads name on top of the railway bridge, somewhere for him to sit with you, or a plaque on the bridge ❤
every time Tom says everthing you see from the tree lines I keep thinking that Tom is Mufasa and Alfie is Simba and Tom is like everthing that the light touches is all going to be yours 🦁🌅 Well done Tom so stoked for your next set of adventures involving this land!!!!!
I could literally watch another 12hrs straight of you walking around your land pointing at hills and trees.
Can’t wait to watch the adventures unfold.
tom what id recommend you do is get a full aeriel shot of the land so you can properly visualise and plot it all out, should help with planning and visualising it all! i remember watching you building your house when i was growing up and cant wait to see where you go with this
