Thank you for many hours of entertaining commentary and educational content. It does sadden me some people just cannot see two lovely people trying to live their best lives. Keep on keeping on!!
@@FoxesAfloat I second that Colin I can't thank you enough for your mental health education, you've made my partner understand My ASR . Shaun your just the best support for Colin. Love you guys
I suffer from depressions myself and I haven’t laughed that much in a long time! Thank you very, very much! I still don’t know why people have an issue with who loves whom. I don’t get that concept. You two are wonderful people! Greetings from Berlin!
If all marriages were as loving, funny and supportive as yours, there'd be a lot less trolling. You two are a shining example of what a good relationship looks like.
I often wonder why people who are offended by content just don't move on and find something that doesn't offend them. No one is making you watch. I started watching because I have a young nephew with autism and was interested in Colin's journey. The photography and life on the canal hooked me. Your life together and the love you have for each other keeps me here. Know that you are loved by your true audience and more than happy to go on this Scotish adventure with you.
*GASP* I am flabbergasted to learn that people actually leave comments that are so hateful. I'm sorry you have to deal with that kind of negativity. Please know you have brought joy and knowledge to myself and I'm sure many more. So much wonderful, beautiful and insightful content. I really enjoy your channel. Keep up the fine work!
Found your channel a few years ago looking for canal tubes. Realised quickly that you're bloody hilarious and entertaining. You two are awesome. Canals or hills or chickens. Great stuff!
its not just the content of the video's whether its on a boat or in Scotland its you guys that people tune into always funny and always putting a smile on our faces
sexuality means nothing, im a straight married man with 3 kids, and think you fellas are great, really informative and most of the time full of smiles, we all have off days, and as for the trolls f**k them they no nothing, they just want attention. keep up the good no great work, love to you both.
Apart from the enjoyable interesting, fun and at times educational content, the best thing about you two is that you are consistently authentic and are yourselves, which is so refreshing. Whether you’re boating, farming or if you chose one day chose to just stand in a car park doing nothing it will always be worth a watch. Thanks guys keep up the great work.
Guys when Colin suffered his anxiety issues and depression , I to was off work with stress etc, I felt someone else felt like me and used you as empathy buddy. Always felt you two are a good role model for being happy regardless of small minded people. See you next week keep up the good work and enjoy life. It's to short!
Hi guys, I am the 74 year old white straight guy from Pennsylvania that is commented before. I love both of you guys and it doesn't really matter what the content is on your vlogs I watch you because I like you guys. I also like your dogs because I'm a dog lover too. Just keep on keeping on and doing what makes you happy. That is really the meaning of life. Regards. Bill H
"If people are determined to be offended - if they will climb up on the ladder, balancing it precariously on their own toilet cistern to be upset by what they see through the neighbour's bathroom window - there is nothing you can do about that." ~ Christopher Hitchens. Stay true to yourselves. The trolls can’t do anything about that.
Agreed. I started watching because I love tiny homes, but I continue to watch because I love your honesty, openness, and wit. You will forever be in my heart.
Dear Colin and Shaun. I am shocked by the comments from assholes that you showed in your vlog today. Thousand of people love the two of you and look forward to your vlog every week. As for the nasty trolls, just tell them to sod off! Senior lady watching from Canada.
We really don't care what you two talk about, boating content, farming, wall papering or anything else. You make us laugh. You are both awesome with a great sense of humor! Keep doing what you are, it's great.
You two keep on doing you! You’re both genuine, honest, and hilarious. I’ll keep subscribing, watching, liking and keep being a Patron. I love Fridays at 4 o’clock!
We love you guys. I love you guys. I'm an American straight white guy, retired military at that. This video was so needed. One thing to note, as you presented. Haters also, aren't so bright. You two are truly an inspiration. See you next week or whenever you post.
Dear Colin and Sean I've just watched your vlog about trolls. I'm appalled at how cruel and evil some people are. For my part your vlogs have been hugely valuable, especially in the months after I lost my wife 2.5 years ago, I found the calmness and tranquility of those vlogs on the canals a great comfort. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Huge affection, Chris
I was so shocked to read some of the comments you posted..and I hope that the volume of love and respect the vast majority of us have for you two outweighs the sad individuals with no life…hugs…xxx
Evening guys, I would just like to say how much I appreciate you both, lovely individuals and always uplifting. I initially found you around 4 months ago when searching the canal boat blogs, I can honestly say you are absolutely my favourites by miles. I love the way you talk about mental health and this is so helpful to many people. As far as those who call you or insult you I can only feel sorry for them, they must have very unhappy lives. Please keep up your good and informative videos as I would miss them very much. Love you both for being the kind persons you are. Gary xx
Suspect many of the trolls are sitting in their bedroom and are very unhappy with their own lives. Seeing you two being happy annoys them. Just you both keep being you.
I don't understand why so many people find it necessary to seek their 15 seconds of shame. The fact you would spend so much of your time and effort to help other vloggers to understand how to manage the hate just shows why I look forward to your vlog each week. I miss the history and explanations of the canals, but I am enjoying your adventures in Scotland. Bless you and thank you for all you share.
Really don't understand why some people are so mean to you two. I stayed watching after the Scotland move mainly because I like you two, as you bring a smile to my face. History is also really interesting
Good work chaps - there's always that small minority, so keep on ignoring and reporting! The rest of us (the 99.99%) will keep on watching and supporting.
Colin I am so sorry about that comment. I actually gasped when I heard it, so how it affected you must have been horrendous. And nobody for one minute thought that, so you didn't need to prove anything to anyone. I'm made up you are living your best lives. And thank you for still sharing your lives, with your genuine followers. 💜🐶🐾
It breaks my heart that there are so many mean people in the world. You guys are our favorite UA-cam channel. We live in the U.S., and we watch an episode each night before bed. It’s like a 25 minute vacation every day. Now we want to retire to Scotland, buy a narrow boat, and open/close locks all day. This should go without saying, but you both bring joy to so many people. Keep doing what you do!
Just wanted to say that I’ve loved watching your content, particularly where you shared details of your mental health struggles. My grandson has an autism diagnosis - your thoughts on us all being unique and your comments around sensory overload on a trip to a supermarket really resonates. Please disregard any haters comments - the joy and help you bring to peoples lives is what is key. Please keep up the good work. A fan.
I'm ashamed at those comments you highlighted. I can't believe they were written by people of the same species as me. Try as I might, I can't even begin to rationalise it, let alone explain it. I won't express my anger by retaliation, or name calling, or in any way appealing to the trolls lust for reaction. I see two lovely fellas, obviously loving each other dearly, sharing there lives with me, I see honesty, integrity, humour. I see good, I see when it doesn't go so well, shit happens, you embrace and carry on. You pair have helped me through some dark times with your cheerful positive attitude. Thank you both, from the heart. Much love lads x
I had a near fatal accident last year and I always pushed aside mental health etc, I'm suffering from it now because of what happened and you guys have kept me going and listening to Colin made me go and seek help. So from me to you both again Thankyou xx
Great video! - There should be absolutely NO room for hate on UA-cam and I completely agree with you, that there should be a zero tolerance approach - although sadly it will always continue in some form; people feel 'hidden' behind their keyboards and computer screens. Thanks for the tips and please keep up the awesome content!
Considering the number of young people who have been adversely affected (to put it mildly) by social media comments , I think this video should be shown all over the Inteernet and on TV and in schools as a public service. Well done you two.
Guys so sorry to hear you have been subjected to this crap, I can't believe people are so cruel some of these comments are disgusting, I love your channel and love you guys too ❤️ so keep posting your videos 🤗🤗🤗
Those are really unbelievable and hurtful coments, and so undeserved. At least you are able to make fun of them, people like that are disgusting. Stay happy and take care. See you soon. 💕🐾xxx
First you two are a solid, decent and caring people and it shows. This was an important video for you to make because it highlights the troll problem. I have a political vlog and of course I expect to get those that disagree with my views that's to be expected. The problem is some people think if they disagree with your views or your lifestyle that gives them the right to abuse you. We all try to ignore these people at first but some just don't take the hint. I'm glad that you two called the Police, nasty trolls need to know there are consequences for their actions. Keep doing what you're doing boys because at the end of the day the only ones you need to please are yourselves. Big smooches to you two and Otis the wonder dog! 💕
You two Silver Foxes are the best thing on UA-cam. I have binge watched from the begining. You two are a great double act, and make us all laugh! Two fantastic blokes, living their best lives and having FUN. Keep up the good work guys.👍
Very useful video. We are very small channel but already receiving some nasty comments from time to time. We've been using some of techniques mentioned in your video... but didn't know that blocked users still see their own comments. That's brilliant! 😁😁👍👍 All the best from couple (and a dog!) living in touring caravan for over 4 years now!
We are impressed that you can find humor in the utter depravity of theses peoples comments, their hearts and minds betray them. Their boney fingers point out their own depravity and sick minds. We love you guys.
I don’t usually read all the comments, but I am horrified at what you have been subjected to, the lack of humanity and empathy, the malice and so on. I started watching your channel because of my curiosity about narrow boat living…I fancied giving it a go, but was unsure whether I could survive the winters. I’ve decided against that lifestyle for me but continue to watch because I found you both to be such good fun, knowledgeable and educational, plus I fell in love with Dylan. Please don’t give these awful people and comments any headspace. I’m glad you took decisive action against the ones you mentioned. Keep doing what you’re doing, keep talking about your mental health and above all, keep smiling 😊 ❤️😊
Another outstanding video from two people I could not be more different from. Which is fantastic! Love Scotland, love Britain, love the history, love your humor. and love your honesty.
It’s unbelievable how some people has power behind the screen. We also get affected by trolls on our social media platforms and you are absolutely right on your actions. We have never thought on taking further and press charges but we will keep that one in mind from now on. I believe people follow us because of who we are and because they like our personalities, so it doesn’t matter what we do they will keep following. I understand some are only interested on a certain thing like when you were boating on the canals but you will never get a massive people unsubscribe you for that and you will get new ones interested on what you are doing now. You guys are great 😊 thank you
I started watching you for the canal boating, I stayed because of the pair of you. I’d follow you two no matter what you do just because of who you are.
I wouldn't want it rammed down my throat either. Consent is important. Who is forcing them to watch? Maybe they should see a therapist to help them examine their own closet.
Please accept my apologies for a second more reflective comment. Every parent reaches the stage where they think: "What if my child(ren) is/are gay? I concluded that I hoped my children formed a stable loving relationship and that it would matter not one jot whether it was straight, gay, bi, trans or any other combination. What matters is the quality of the relationship. Sean and Colin, you have a true loving relationship where you respect and support each other. What a wonderful thing. I suspect that the trolls don't have this. I mean where is the love and compassion? You do what you want to do. People don't own you because you are on UA-cam, they don't even know you!
So sorry to hear about some of the awful messages you have to put up with, I just want you to know how much I enjoy your Friday broadcast and always look forward to it. I am disabled and currently housebound so it is lovely to watch the beautiful countryside. Thankyou
Love you guys and all your different content! Please keep the conversation going about your mental health! You have no idea how much you are helping others who are struggling with their mental health. Keep smiling and laughing it makes my day. 😘🤗
My fourteen year old daughter just came out too me. A few weeks ago I was talking about Alan Turing. I showed her your video about Turing and his memorial. She said the passion I showed at that video made her feel safe to come out to me. If you have done nothing else, and you have given so many hours of joy, you gave me a better relationship with my daughter. You gave me the opportunity to share two people I love with another and by doing so give her the opportunity too tell me what I knew she had to. I can not imagine a soul so twisted and full of pain that they would lash out in hatred towards you. I feel sorry for them. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We love you. Stay strong and don't let the bastards grind you down.
I love watching your videos, all of them, but this one is probably your most important yet. The message you get across is spot on. No one should have to deal with that kind of crap. Keep up the good work. Gary
Geez Louise! I can't believe people actually take time out of their lives to send you guys mean messages! It just floors me. Great job handling this with positivity. Personally, you guys are so goofy, silly, and fun, I don't know how anyone could act like a troll. So sad. Thanks for the smiles I get watching your vlogs.
Hi Fellas, I just watched your Troll video. Well done! I just wanted to say a couple of things to both of you. I found your channel in midst of the darkest days of the pandemic here in New York City. I have been a Broadway stagehand for almost 30 years and suddenly one day the entire industry shut down. Your channel started out as a very needed escape during bad times. I have enjoyed your UA-cam channel ever since. I really think you guys are great and do a great job. I’m happy to be following along on your new chapter of life. I’m happy you didn’t let the trolls win. Keep fighting the good fight. You’re two of the good guys. Be well, Bob Biasetti
Well done guys! Im glad you made a video on this topic as it's not talked about enough. We've never had anything as bad as you, but some comments really do hurt me, as I already have social anxiety, depression and low self-esteem, it just makes it worse. But that tip about hiding the person from the channel has come in very useful, over the past year. Much love the Taylors.
When you put our whole life ( or a part of it ) on line for everyone to see, you are bound to find haters. It's amazing that in today's world your percentage is so very low. As for the subscription numbers I really enjoyed watching the content when you were on the canals and less so about your lives on land in Scotland but I'm not going to stop the subscription I love watching you guys, you are still a regular stop for me on Fridays. Cheers from Central Michigan!
You two are as mad as a box of frogs. I always laugh when I watch your videos. Ignore the haters and keep on being you as the internet is a better place with you two in it.
My wife and I watch every night. We’ve been bingeing your channel for months, ramping up the number of episodes when we heard you were staying in Scotland. After watching this episode I wanted to say how much we love you and are planning our retirement based off what you’ve done. Much love from an ex-pat and his southern American wife!
I don’t usually leave comments like this, so hear I go. I enjoy watching your video because who you are, what you do and your sense of humor. I do not agree with you on several things such as chocolate cake and dark beer (which does go good together) and avocados (they make me ill), but still. Guys , I am honored to watch your videos and know you two. Your humble UA-cam friend. Take care.
We don’t care with how you are, what color you have or where you come from, we love you just the way you are. It is so nice to follow your vlogs and also learn from you. We are grateful for your lovely work and effort you show each time. Greetings from Germany from Alan & Moni
sorry to hear this. i always say, 'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all'. these trolls get a fix from putting others down. they must be hated themselves i'm not surprised,. ignore the bad and show them nothing fazes you. all the best.
Thanks guys, you 2 are the reason I subscribe to the channel and will continue to be do so until I go bankrupt, or senial ( So that gives you at least the next couple of days according to my wife...She's my resident troll, flinging insults in my direction at regular intervals!🤣)Keep doing what you do,it is such a lift to invite you both into my life guaranteed to raise my spirits! Thank you both!❤
Well done fella's, excellent video. I am amazed to hear that in this day and age comments like you have used for examples are still being made by people who clearly live in a world much narrower than your boats. I've been watching your videos (from number one) over the last month or two and have really enjoyed them. The effort you both go to in creating the content is evident. Two thumbs up.
My belief is that if any two humans are crazy enough to devote their lives to each other, then they should go right ahead and do so and it's absolutely nobody else's business. I've never figured out why so many people who claim to hew to a religion of "love and light" neither possess nor understand either.
Thanks for that, It's a shame that people have to be so rude, if they don't want to watch you just don't. Why be mean. I am enjoying your videos, I honestly just found you recently but plan to go back and watch the previous ones.
Hi Guys, (and Otis) Thanks for the excellent video and the great advice, we watch you every week. Loved your videos on the canals, Scotland and mental health but the truth is we watch because of you. Ignore the trolls, we love you.
I normally don't read the comments, and after seeing the ones you shared I'm glad. I found it quite upsetting , I can't imagine how it makes you feel. I love your channel, no matter where you are, you both make me smile, and Shaun, your laugh still makes me smile, or laugh right along with you.Keep him laughing Colin, it's good for everybody' soul!Till the next time, take care and never stop being who you are.
Thank you for many hours of entertaining commentary and educational content. It does sadden me some people just cannot see two lovely people trying to live their best lives. Keep on keeping on!!
Our pleasure!
@@FoxesAfloat I second that Colin I can't thank you enough for your mental health education, you've made my partner understand My ASR . Shaun your just the best support for Colin. Love you guys
I love you guys!
I love you guys. You are so funny but also very educational. You make me laugh outloud. Thank you for doing this videos.
Smooooch!
I suffer from depressions myself and I haven’t laughed that much in a long time! Thank you very, very much!
I still don’t know why people have an issue with who loves whom. I don’t get that concept. You two are wonderful people! Greetings from Berlin!
If all marriages were as loving, funny and supportive as yours, there'd be a lot less trolling. You two are a shining example of what a good relationship looks like.
Your so right, some people will spend their whole lives wishing they were that lucky!

I often wonder why people who are offended by content just don't move on and find something that doesn't offend them. No one is making you watch.
I started watching because I have a young nephew with autism and was interested in Colin's journey. The photography and life on the canal hooked me. Your life together and the love you have for each other keeps me here. Know that you are loved by your true audience and more than happy to go on this Scotish adventure with you.
I think these sort of folk find offence in everything,they’ve nothing better to do than pass judgement on everyone and everything Wanda x
Free speech does not absolve someone from the consequences of what they say. Solidarity to you both!
*GASP* I am flabbergasted to learn that people actually leave comments that are so hateful. I'm sorry you have to deal with that kind of negativity. Please know you have brought joy and knowledge to myself and I'm sure many more. So much wonderful, beautiful and insightful content. I really enjoy your channel. Keep up the fine work!
Thank you! 👍🏻❤️😀
Found your channel a few years ago looking for canal tubes. Realised quickly that you're bloody hilarious and entertaining. You two are awesome. Canals or hills or chickens. Great stuff!
Thanks! 👍🏻❤️🤗
Congratulations on meeting this issue head on with intelligence and humor. All the best to you and I hope your channel continues to grow and prosper.
Thanks, Marilyn!
its not just the content of the video's whether its on a boat or in Scotland its you guys that people tune into always funny and always putting a smile on our faces
sexuality means nothing, im a straight married man with 3 kids, and think you fellas are great, really informative and most of the time full of smiles, we all have off days, and as for the trolls f**k them they no nothing, they just want attention. keep up the good no great work, love to you both.
Apart from the enjoyable interesting, fun and at times educational content, the best thing about you two is that you are consistently authentic and are yourselves, which is so refreshing. Whether you’re boating, farming or if you chose one day chose to just stand in a car park doing nothing it will always be worth a watch. Thanks guys keep up the great work.
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
I am extremely sorry to hear about that horrible comment about Shaun's Dad 💕
Guys when Colin suffered his anxiety issues and depression , I to was off work with stress etc, I felt someone else felt like me and used you as empathy buddy. Always felt you two are a good role model for being happy regardless of small minded people. See you next week keep up the good work and enjoy life. It's to short!
I'm glad you two have each other to laugh about these things with! And glad you know 99.999% of us think you're the bee's knees!
Horrified by the vile comments you have received! You both brighten my day and make me smile. xx
Hi guys, I am the 74 year old white straight guy from Pennsylvania that is commented before.

I'll say something I told another narrowboat channel yesterday. I don't keep watching because of where you go, I watch because you are entertaining.
I am sorry that you have received so much abuse. I really enjoy your channel, and the deep affection you have for each other is a joy to watch.
Lads, you're a couple of crazy nice guys. Trolls come and go, but good hearted people like you will stay forever
Words fail me at how idiotic and cruel some morons can be. Good vlog guys and take heart that the overwhelming number of people love your channel.
You two keep on doing you! You’re both genuine, honest, and hilarious. I’ll keep subscribing, watching, liking and keep being a Patron. I love Fridays at 4 o’clock!

You two Silver Foxes are the best thing on UA-cam. I have binge watched from the begining. You two are a great double act, and make us all laugh! Two fantastic blokes, living their best lives and having FUN. Keep up the good work guys.👍
Some people are perpetually miserable people.
You both have fantastic attitudes!
I really love your channel, I look forward to each video!
Thank you so much!
Very useful video. We are very small channel but already receiving some nasty comments from time to time. We've been using some of techniques mentioned in your video... but didn't know that blocked users still see their own comments. That's brilliant! 😁😁👍👍 All the best from couple (and a dog!) living in touring caravan for over 4 years now!
Thank you! 👍🏻❤️😉👋🏻
Love you guys. Hope those creeps can curl up and crawl back into their holes of unhappiness. I’m straight but I can still love both!
So happy to hear you held that troll accountable GOOD FOR YOU‼️👏🏼😊
Keep it up boys. You project a lot of light. It's appreciated.
Much appreciated!
Thanks!
Wow! Thank you so much, Jade ❤️👍🏻
We are impressed that you can find humor in the utter depravity of theses peoples comments, their hearts and minds betray them. Their boney fingers point out their own depravity and sick minds. We love you guys.
Well said. It really says alot about the commentators themselves, I feel sorry for their sickness and hate.
Haters gonna hate. The wife and I love watching you two. you two are a great couple. Keep it up.
I don’t usually read all the comments, but I am horrified at what you have been subjected to, the lack of humanity and empathy, the malice and so on. I started watching your channel because of my curiosity about narrow boat living…I fancied giving it a go, but was unsure whether I could survive the winters. I’ve decided against that lifestyle for me but continue to watch because I found you both to be such good fun, knowledgeable and educational, plus I fell in love with Dylan. Please don’t give these awful people and comments any headspace. I’m glad you took decisive action against the ones you mentioned. Keep doing what you’re doing, keep talking about your mental health and above all, keep smiling 😊 ❤️😊
Thank you so much! 👍🏻❤️😀👋🏻
Straight man here. Love you guys!
Love you too, straighty!
@@FoxesAfloat Hilarious!
Another outstanding video from two people I could not be more different from. Which is fantastic! Love Scotland, love Britain, love the history, love your humor. and love your honesty.
It’s unbelievable how some people has power behind the screen. We also get affected by trolls on our social media platforms and you are absolutely right on your actions. We have never thought on taking further and press charges but we will keep that one in mind from now on. I believe people follow us because of who we are and because they like our personalities, so it doesn’t matter what we do they will keep following. I understand some are only interested on a certain thing like when you were boating on the canals but you will never get a massive people unsubscribe you for that and you will get new ones interested on what you are doing now.
You guys are great 😊 thank you
I started watching you for the canal boating, I stayed because of the pair of you. I’d follow you two no matter what you do just because of who you are.
Thank you so much! 👍🏻❤️😀👋🏻
I wouldn't want it rammed down my throat either. Consent is important. Who is forcing them to watch? Maybe they should see a therapist to help them examine their own closet.
Please accept my apologies for a second more reflective comment.
Every parent reaches the stage where they think: "What if my child(ren) is/are gay?
I concluded that I hoped my children formed a stable loving relationship and that it would matter not one jot whether it was straight, gay, bi, trans or any other combination. What matters is the quality of the relationship.
Sean and Colin, you have a true loving relationship where you respect and support each other. What a wonderful thing.
I suspect that the trolls don't have this. I mean where is the love and compassion?
You do what you want to do. People don't own you because you are on UA-cam, they don't even know you!
So sorry to hear about some of the awful messages you have to put up with, I just want you to know how much I enjoy your Friday broadcast and always look forward to it. I am disabled and currently housebound so it is lovely to watch the beautiful countryside. Thankyou
Please chase your own happiness! That’s wonderful for you and for those of us who enjoy your posts. Stay safe and happy. 💜💙🧡💚
Thank you, lovely 👍🏻❤️😉👋🏻
wow, some of they comments, it really does make you question humanity sometimes. Good for you on defending yourself.
People who post nasty things are usually ignorant and thick as two short planks. Love you two. From a 72 year old aul doll from Northern Ireland. .
Thank you, lovely 👍🏻❤️😉👋🏻
Love you guys and all your different content! Please keep the conversation going about your mental health! You have no idea how much you are helping others who are struggling with their mental health. Keep smiling and laughing it makes my day. 😘🤗
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
My fourteen year old daughter just came out too me. A few weeks ago I was talking about Alan Turing. I showed her your video about Turing and his memorial. She said the passion I showed at that video made her feel safe to come out to me. If you have done nothing else, and you have given so many hours of joy, you gave me a better relationship with my daughter. You gave me the opportunity to share two people I love with another and by doing so give her the opportunity too tell me what I knew she had to. I can not imagine a soul so twisted and full of pain that they would lash out in hatred towards you. I feel sorry for them. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We love you. Stay strong and don't let the bastards grind you down.
WOW! That is awesome 😎 thank you so much for your lovely comments. Wishing you and you family a beautiful life 🙏❤️😍
I love watching your videos, all of them, but this one is probably your most important yet. The message you get across is spot on. No one should have to deal with that kind of crap.
Keep up the good work.
Gary
Geez Louise! I can't believe people actually take time out of their lives to send you guys mean messages! It just floors me. Great job handling this with positivity. Personally, you guys are so goofy, silly, and fun, I don't know how anyone could act like a troll. So sad. Thanks for the smiles I get watching your vlogs.
Good luck to you both , do what makes you happy and sod everybody else
Hi Fellas, I just watched your Troll video. Well done!
I just wanted to say a couple of things to both of you. I found your channel in midst of the darkest days of the pandemic here in New York City. I have been a Broadway stagehand for almost 30 years and suddenly one day the entire industry shut down. Your channel started out as a very needed escape during bad times. I have enjoyed your UA-cam channel ever since. I really think you guys are great and do a great job.
I’m happy to be following along on your new chapter of life. I’m happy you didn’t let the trolls win. Keep fighting the good fight. You’re two of the good guys.
Be well,
Bob Biasetti
Thanks so much Bob! Feels like forever since we were on Broadway. I think 2002-2004 where I love Cabaret at 54 so much we went back about 40 times!
Well done guys! Im glad you made a video on this topic as it's not talked about enough. We've never had anything as bad as you, but some comments really do hurt me, as I already have social anxiety, depression and low self-esteem, it just makes it worse. But that tip about hiding the person from the channel has come in very useful, over the past year. Much love the Taylors.
Thanks guys. Sending love to you all! ❤️
There are just some horrible horrible people out there, but not many, the majority are lovely and we love your channel, and you two guys are fab xx
When you put our whole life ( or a part of it ) on line for everyone to see, you are bound to find haters. It's amazing that in today's world your percentage is so very low. As for the subscription numbers I really enjoyed watching the content when you were on the canals and less so about your lives on land in Scotland but I'm not going to stop the subscription
I love watching you guys, you are still a regular stop for me on Fridays. Cheers from Central Michigan!
You two are just the greatest people… honest… funny…. Informative. Love you❤️
Wow, thank you!
You two are as mad as a box of frogs. I always laugh when I watch your videos. Ignore the haters and keep on being you as the internet is a better place with you two in it.
I love you guys and your channel. I am sorry there are mean hateful people trolling your social media. Glad you took action and won.
My wife and I watch every night. We’ve been bingeing your channel for months, ramping up the number of episodes when we heard you were staying in Scotland. After watching this episode I wanted to say how much we love you and are planning our retirement based off what you’ve done. Much love from an ex-pat and his southern American wife!
Hope you have a wonderful retirement ❤️
I don’t usually leave comments like this, so hear I go. I enjoy watching your video because who you are, what you do and your sense of humor. I do not agree with you on several things such as chocolate cake and dark beer (which does go good together) and avocados (they make me ill), but still. Guys , I am honored to watch your videos and know you two. Your humble UA-cam friend. Take care.
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Love you to guys even when you are talking about difficult things you still manage to laugh and be funny.
We don’t care with how you are, what color you have or where you come from, we love you just the way you are. It is so nice to follow your vlogs and also learn from you. We are grateful for your lovely work and effort you show each time. Greetings from Germany from Alan & Moni
sorry to hear this. i always say, 'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all'. these trolls get a fix from putting others down. they must be hated themselves i'm not surprised,. ignore the bad and show them nothing fazes you. all the best.
I was shocked by some of those terrible comments! People are just nuts! I'm glad you defended yourself by pressing charges!
Thanks guys, you 2 are the reason I subscribe to the channel and will continue to be do so until I go bankrupt, or senial ( So that gives you at least the next couple of days according to my wife...She's my resident troll, flinging insults in my direction at regular intervals!🤣)Keep doing what you do,it is such a lift to invite you both into my life guaranteed to raise my spirits! Thank you both!❤
Sound to me like your wife is keeping you alive 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shocking how nasty people can be.carry on being the entertaining fun guys your subscribers love.ignore those haters!
Well done fella's, excellent video. I am amazed to hear that in this day and age comments like you have used for examples are still being made by people who clearly live in a world much narrower than your boats. I've been watching your videos (from number one) over the last month or two and have really enjoyed them. The effort you both go to in creating the content is evident. Two thumbs up.
Absolutely 👍🏻❤️🙏🏻
A lot the trolls out there, are simply jealous of your success and love for each other. Never EVER change you 2.
The two of you are lovely. Good advice for anyone who has to deal the hate on the internet. Keep up the good work and adventure.
My belief is that if any two humans are crazy enough to devote their lives to each other, then they should go right ahead and do so and it's absolutely nobody else's business. I've never figured out why so many people who claim to hew to a religion of "love and light" neither possess nor understand either.
Thanks for that, It's a shame that people have to be so rude, if they don't want to watch you just don't. Why be mean. I am enjoying your videos, I honestly just found you recently but plan to go back and watch the previous ones.
I am horrified by what some people will say. I always follow the old rule-if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all.
Well said 👍🏻
Hi Guys, (and Otis) Thanks for the excellent video and the great advice, we watch you every week. Loved your videos on the canals, Scotland and mental health but the truth is we watch because of you. Ignore the trolls, we love you.
I normally don't read the comments, and after seeing the ones you shared I'm glad. I found it quite upsetting , I can't imagine how it makes you feel. I love your channel, no matter where you are, you both make me smile, and Shaun, your laugh still makes me smile, or laugh right along with you.Keep him laughing Colin, it's good for everybody' soul!Till the next time, take care and never stop being who you are.
Thank you so much! 👍🏻❤️😀👋🏻
