I've been binge watching your videos since I've "discovered" your channel about 3 weeks ago. They are such a blessing to me and promote my mental health. I especially love when you and your mum giggle together. Thank you!
I have that book!...The Landscape of Anne of green Gables!!! I have been to Prince Edward Island and absolutely LOVED it. We went to the 3 Maritime Provinces; one of the most beautiful sections of the world! When we went there was NOT a bridge connecting Nova Scotia to P.E.I.. Many moons ago. My daughters and I huge Anne fans. Enjoy L.M. Montgomery books. Viewing this 2 yrs. after filmed.
It is October 2021, the cold air has finally arrived in New England, I spent the weekend reading and browsing through antique shops and bookstores, and found a few goodies. Settled down with a hot cup of coffee to watch this. What a delight! My husband and I do the same...opening gifts a few days early and spreading it out over the season! You are both a joy to watch! My new favourite channel!
I realize this video is over 2 years old, and I'm not sure you'll even see this comment, but I have to say how much I am enjoying your channel. I've only been a subscriber for a few months, but every single time I watch a video, I feel a sense of peace. You and your mum are so lovely it sometimes brings tears to my eyes ❤ Thank you so much for all the time and energy you put into these videos.
Merry Christmas to you both! What a lovely edition of your vlogmas videos. I recently inherited my Mum's dresser full of spode and even though I don't collect the pieces they are growing on me more and more. Also more serendipity I knew Sylvia Gower. Sylvia and I were on the Mersea Island Society committee together and we were members of the same WI. I have her book as I am also a fan of Elizabeth Goudge. Sylvia was a lovely and interesting lady. Ronald Blythe lives near here too and many years ago now he came over one evening to sung evensong at our village church and gave the address, he was also such an interesting man to listen to. Thank you both for such happy memories. Enjoy your reading, Teresa ❤️🌲❤️📚❤️
How amazing you knew her, Teresa! I can’t wait to read the book. And how wonderful to hear Ronald Blythe speak in person; I love his writing too. Thank you for your lovely comments as always. Wishing you a Merry Christmas 🎄 😘
Thank you for sharing such joy with us all year round. You and your mum are the loveliest people. Your family, friends and neighbors are blessed. Wishing you both the merriest of Christmases and a new year abundant in health, inspiration and books! xxx
Merry Christmas Miranda and Donna thank you to you both for such wonderful content I have enjoyed your videos Miranda right from the very first one, but especially the last 6 months since you moved location and your mum joined you. I am really pleased to see that you are getting more subscribers every time i click on your channel. For a real book lover your channel is so full of knowledge but also joyful to watch,I hope you enjoy your reading over Christmas as I know I will and look forward to hopefully a brighter new year. Looking forward to seeing you both in the New Year.
Thank you so much for your lovely words Janet! I am certainly looking forward to some reading time over Christmas and hope you have some enjoyable books lined up too 🎄📚❤️
Doing a bit of binging on older blogs which I am so enjoying on this gray, wet Oregon day. I loved that little necklace and those twisted wooden candle sticks. I also love candles and am now going to light a couple as the light goes away.🍁
I also do enjoyed how you enjoy each other's company. My Mom died in February this year so we won't be sharing our Christmas in 2022 so I will enjoy yours in 2023.
How lovely to hear Sybil Marshall mentioned! She came to give a lecture on education when I was training years ago. She brought a neatly wrapped large parcel and put it on the desk in front of her, spoke for an hour and then said:”I suppose you’re all wondering what is in the box?” Indeed we were!! “Absolutely nothing!!!” Was her reply.... then she impressed upon us the importance of always keeping children’s attention by having surprises in front of them. Later they were obviously labelled Visual Aids but same idea 😂. Never forgot her! She was some lady!! Thanks for a super video...you make a lovely team!!
Books are always the best presents. My mother knew that and always included at least one book each Christmas. This was so much fun to watch. I envy you two so much that you have each other. I miss my mother. You two also love a lot of authors that I love and that not so many people have read. I love Elizabeth Goudge and Miss Read. I have never heard of Sybil Marshall until I heard you talk about her. So I ordered one, should be here soon. Love your channel. Just found it last week so now I can catch up. Thank you ladies. Merry Christmas 🎄 from Arizona USA. ❤️
I have enjoyed your vlogmas so much! My mom passed away 5 years ago so Christmas can be a bit sad for me,but seeing you and your lovely mom makes my heart smile with warm memories of all the great Christmases I had with my mom. Thank you for sharing your December with us! Happy Christmas to you both!!🎄☃️🎁❤
I’m so sorry your mum isn’t with you anymore, but I’m glad to have brought back happy memories. I’m so grateful for my mum! Sending lots of love this Christmas 🎄❤️
Merry Christmas Miranda and Donna. Thank you so much for sharing the wonderful little shops in Ripon and the amazing gifts you found for each other. I have The Landscapes of Anne of Green Gables. It is beautiful and also my dream to visit PEI at some point. I have a tiny glass and silver capsule filled with the red sand from PEI on my charm bracelet to remind me how much I love Anne and all of L. M. Montgomery stories. Looking forward to seeing you both in January. Take care......Crystal.
Oh thank you so much for sharing with us😌. I love the relationship you have with your mum as I think about mine when I watch you two. She was from Exeter and also loved to read and was every bit British in her ways. I gave her a signed British edition of one of Lee Child’s book as he was one of her favorite authors. I wish you and your mum a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.
Thank you for sharing this so close to Christmas. Loved your treasures from Andys’ Antiques as well as your book finds. Hope you have a happy and peaceful Christmas and look forward to further videos in 2021.
Hi Miranda and Donna!!! What a beautiful and gorgeous vlogmas!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! I see you are great book lovers!!! I love books too!!! Merry Christmas!!! And all t'he best for 2021!!!! 😘😘🌲📚
What a lovely, joyful video, and thank you for taking us along with you to Ripon. I managed to visit two bookshops today here in Edinburgh before everything shuts down: Golden Hare in Stockbridge and Portobello Books. Of course, I also managed to take some books with me after my visits! You found some lovely things at that antique shop. Your necklace is gorgeous as is the Wedgwood candlesticks. Do you know that Wedgwood made jewelry too? I have some pieces by them that I love wearing. That Moorcroft vase is lovely too. I used to buy one Moorcroft vase a year when visiting Scotland and was able to build up a collection of about a dozen. May you both have a wonderful Christmas, and better times for us all in the New Year!
Beautiful purchases - you both have exquisite taste. I’ve said it before but your videos have been such a tonic during these dark times. Have a wonderful Christmas and happy reading! ❤️
Lovely video. My daughter and I are avid readers and give books as presents. It is a special connection we share and I know it is very special for you both as well. You have made my Christmas much brighter. Thank you. Merry Christmas from across the pond.
Spode has a current style of cup they are selling that is HUGE. It’s perfect for soup. It’s nice to have something beautiful to use daily to make everyday feel special. This was a lovely video 🥰
You both are so delightful. I loved both trips to Ripon, both shops are so beautiful. And I loved what you bought! My Christmas wish is to sometime travel to Yorkshire and run into both of you in a shop sometime. I wouldn’t want to intrude on you, it would be thrilling just to be in the same place. I hope you have the happiest of holidays and a joyous new year.♥️♥️
Merry Christmas, Miranda and Donna!! I cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed your channel and Instagram. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, I have loved all of the reviews and recommendations and have read so, so many wonderful books because of you. Have a wonderful holiday and enjoy your lovely gifts, and I will look forward to seeing you both in the New Year!
Oh, Miranda! I'm so excited that you got the new Elizabeth Goudge book! I'm waiting for mine to arrive. I loved watching your vlog so much - every moment made me laugh or smile. I'm a huge antique shopping (and candle!) fan and I thought your choices are beautiful!! I love the vase, teapot and candlesticks. Can't wait to see you wearing your lovely necklace - such a pretty piece! You and your mom looked amazing (Donna, your dress and pearls are perfect!) and I always feel like I should dress up fancy myself before watching (though, I usually have on exercise clothes and I'm running in place instead! lol) Wishing you and your mom the most special and wonderful Christmas!! Thank you both for making the past month so incredibly joyous and happy for me! I've never looked forward to watching anything on UA-cam (or anywhere else) as much as I have your holiday videos. Many, many holiday hugs!! xoxoxo :D
Aw, thank you so much Gina! Hope you enjoy the Elizabeth Goudge book too; I'm eager to start it. We were really thrilled with all our purchases and can't wait to use them! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas ahead of your and enjoy the holidays. All best wishes for 2021! xxx
I love this vlog and it is so special that I could be part of giving each other gifts for Christmas. For me it felt like I was there with you and your lovely mum. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! XXX
I really enjoyed the landscape of Anne of Green Gables! That Elizabeth Goudge book look amazing. I am going to look up Sybil! Marshall I am very intrigued!
Thank you for the wonderful videos, especially in December. From your videos I got many gift ideas. For myself, I bought Christmas: a Biography by Judith Flanders and Holly & Ivy and enjoyed reading them. Now I want to get the Landscapes of Anne of Green Gables! Have a wonderful Christmas and happy 2021, Miranda and Donna! I look forward to to many of your videos in the new year!
I'm Team Donna on the gift wrap situation! Love a gift bag, they solve a myriad of gift shape size wrap issues and you can reuse! I adored the The Traveller in time and loved the 80's TV series - what a lovely gift - stay safe in Yorks ladies - look forward to hearing about your recommends for January :) Happy Xmas!
Merry Christmas to both of you! Thank you so much for all these lovely videos! They have been made with taste, love and dedication! Your mother was so elegant! She really appreciated the books you gave her. That bookstore is so pretty. Until next year Miranda! 🎄📚💚❤️💚❤️💚❤️
You are lucky that you still have those small , independent book shops in England. Here in America we have the big and impersonal Barnes and Nobles. I wish that I lived where you live. Christine
Merry Christmas to you lovely ladies! 🎄🎀🎁 You remind me so much of the relationship I have with my daughter's and our shared love of books. Please stay safe and take care, happy reading!📚☕🍰
Thank you both for another lovely video. I love antique/bric a brac shops too, and have numerous... collectables around the house! You and your mum are so entertaining, it's a real treat to watch your channel at the end of a busy day. Wishing you both an enjoyable Christmas!🎄📚
Great gifts you bought each other. The necklace is very delicate. I love watching people’s purchases because often it gives me ideas. Th champagne glasses are special. I haven’t been to Ripo in quite a few years, and it was lovely to see some of it albeit brief. As usual you share great books, and my list’s forever increasing 😊happy bank holiday Monday! 🥂
For my Lockdown birthday, my husband's idea of presenting gifts was to draw pictures directly on the Amazon packaging, so Donna is ahead of the game! Merry Christmas, both of you! X
Thank you so much Miranda, your videos have brought me so much joy this year, especially in the run up to Christmas. You have really captured the spirit of the season for me. I hope you both have a wonderful Christmas. xx
Merry Christmas Miranda & Donna! Your videos being such joy. I would LOVE to see a video of how you hygge your home. And dream wish would be a series of videos of you two visiting indie bookshops, antique shop’s & tearooms.
Thank you! I'm planning lots of those types of videos once we can travel and visit places easily and safely again (the UK is extremely restricted right now). In the meantime, you might like to watch my Grassington & York videos from December, in which we visited bookshops and cafes. Have a lovely Christmas! xxx
Wishing you both a very happy Christmas and thank you for sharing your lives with us. I have really looked forward to each video you post Miranda and have discovered so many wonderful books through your recommendations. Your channel has really brightened what has been such a difficult year. Have a lovely time x
Your videos are so enjoyable. I hope that you and your mom have a wonderful Christmas and that your new year is a happy and healthy one. Thank you for the cheer you've added to my year.
Gorgeous candlesticks, both the twisted wood and the Wedgewood. Also I love that pretty vintage biscuit tin. Some wonderful gifts! The Landscapes of Anne of Green Gables looks gorgeous. I have wanted to visit Prince Edward Island since I first read 'Anne' and of course 'Emily'. I didn't think anyone else felt this way!
I love a Traveller in Time, one of my favourite books. Been so lovely to watch this, though its several years later, thank you. My mum sadly died early in 2021, but she would have loved to watch these too. She gave me a deep love of books, with many of your favourite authors being ours too. During the first lockdown she wanted to reread Geogette Heyer books, so ordered her a regular supply from Amazon. She also enjoyed Josephine Tey, and Edmund Crispin who wrote early detective stories. Thank you Miranda, and Donna. I'm catching up, as have only recently found you, I'm so glad I did!
Merry Christmas to you both. Your videos have been such a joy this year and I love how much more confident your mum has become over the course of these videos. I look forward to watching more bookish content in 2021.
I’m new to your channel and busy catching up on old episodes, have just watched Christmas 2020, how interesting, lots of my favourite authors,also I live in Sussex quite near Charleston and have just been to the John Nash exhibition at The Towner Art Gallery, wonderful wood cuts.
Happy Christmas to both you, Miranda, and your Mum! I've recently found your UA-cam channel and truly enjoy each viewing. I should tell you that you have greatly increased my book wish list. Thank you for sharing your time, knowledge, and of course your Mum. Each viewing is a treat. Happy Holidays
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Janet! I'm so happy you're enjoying my videos. Wishing you happy holidays and a lovely start to the New Year too xxx
What a lovely video Miranda and Donna! Thank you so much for sharing:) Your videos are a delight during this strange and hard times. I wish you a wonderful and peaceful Christmas and a happy new year! Looking forward for your return on the 6 th of january (my birthday!!) Stay safe ! 🎄😘😘
Thank you ladies for putting so much joy into vlogmas. It has been an absolute delight spending time with you, your books, baking and decorating. Merry Christmas and I look forward to your return in the New Year.
Wishing you both a very Happy Christmas and New Year. Thank you again for sharing your travels and your books. You have brought so much joy to so many x
Thank you, Miranda and Donna, for letting us be part of some of your family traditions over this festive period, it has been great spending this time with you. I'd like to wish you a very merry Christmas and may 2021 be full of good health, fun travels and cherished time with friends and family. All the best, Georgia xx
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I wish you lots of health and wealth! Enjoy new riveting stories! May next year be full of fascinating books, amazing discoveries and exciting adventures! I do hope we'll be able to travel and explore new places. If not, books can always help. In my family we say that a book is the best present. By the way, thank you for 'An English Christmas' by John Julius Norwich, I bought it and chose excellent extracts for my students to read out loud)))) See you soon... 🍀🍀🍀
Dear Donna and Miranda: I wish you a very special and merry Christmas and a happy new year! Thank you for making your lovely videos and for sharing the love for books. Cheers!
What a lovely, festive and happy vlog! I was so inspired by your ‘sneak peek’ of your mum’s Christmas books Miranda that I treated myself to a copy of ‘The Queen’s Book of the Red Cross’ and I am thrilled with it. I hope you both had a wonderfully happy Christmas X
Love you two 😘😘. You and your mom are too cute! Please keep your mother/ daughter vlogs coming in the new year! Wishing you both a very Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and continued good health. Thank you for sharing 😘😘😴🎅
Merry Christmas to both of you! 🍾 You bring so much joy in our lives. Happy reading and hope you like Prince Edward Island. It’s just gorgeous. Good thing we have books to travel, right?! 😉 Take care and stay safe! 🤶🏼😘

Hello Miranda and Donna, I just spent the most wonderful pre-Christmas morning watching this gorgeous video. I love all the little treasures you found at the antique shop!!!

Merry Christmas, Miranda & Donna! I enjoyed all the Vlogmas videos so much! Throughout this video, I was smiling and laughing along with you both at the funny bits. Such a bright and happy video, loved it.
I've been binge watching your videos since I've "discovered" your channel about 3 weeks ago. They are such a blessing to me and promote my mental health. I especially love when you and your mum giggle together. Thank you!
I laughed out loud when Miranda said, "I don't think you'll be famous on Pinterest too soon," about Donna's crafty gift wrapping 😂

You two are such a delight and your videos bring me so much joy!
Merry Christmas to you lovely ladies! 🎄🎀🎁 You remind me so much of the relationship I have with my daughter's and our shared love of books. Please stay safe and take care, happy reading!📚☕🍰
Thank you so much! That's lovely you have a similar bond. Merry Christmas to you too! 🎄 ❤️
Thank you both for another lovely video. I love antique/bric a brac shops too, and have numerous... collectables around the house! You and your mum are so entertaining, it's a real treat to watch your channel at the end of a busy day. Wishing you both an enjoyable Christmas!🎄📚
So glad you enjoyed it - thank you! We do love a bit of antique shopping. Enjoy your Christmas! xxx
Great gifts you bought each other. The necklace is very delicate. I love watching people’s purchases because often it gives me ideas. Th champagne glasses are special.
I haven’t been to Ripo in quite a few years, and it was lovely to see some of it albeit brief.
As usual you share great books, and my list’s forever increasing 😊happy bank holiday Monday! 🥂
I cannot love this anymore. What an absolute JOY! Thank you xx💖
For my Lockdown birthday, my husband's idea of presenting gifts was to draw pictures directly on the Amazon packaging, so Donna is ahead of the game! Merry Christmas, both of you! X
Haha! Thank you 🎄💫
Thank you so much Miranda, your videos have brought me so much joy this year, especially in the run up to Christmas. You have really captured the spirit of the season for me. I hope you both have a wonderful Christmas. xx
Thank you so much for your lovely comment Jane! I’m so happy to know that. Hope you have a lovely Christmas 🎄 ❤️😘
Merry Christmas Miranda & Donna! Your videos being such joy. I would LOVE to see a video of how you hygge your home. And dream wish would be a series of videos of you two visiting indie bookshops, antique shop’s & tearooms.
Thank you! I'm planning lots of those types of videos once we can travel and visit places easily and safely again (the UK is extremely restricted right now). In the meantime, you might like to watch my Grassington & York videos from December, in which we visited bookshops and cafes. Have a lovely Christmas! xxx
Merry Christmas Miranda and Donna. Thank you for sharing the gifts of your fantastic videos with us all.
⭐️🎄⭐️💛
I love you two so much. There's always a bundle of laughs too. Thank you so much both!
Wishing you both a very happy Christmas and thank you for sharing your lives with us. I have really looked forward to each video you post Miranda and have discovered so many wonderful books through your recommendations. Your channel has really brightened what has been such a difficult year. Have a lovely time x
Thank you so much for your lovely words! Hope you have a peaceful and restorative Christmas 🎄 ❤️
Your videos are so enjoyable. I hope that you and your mom have a wonderful Christmas and that your new year is a happy and healthy one. Thank you for the cheer you've added to my year.
Thank you so much! I hope you have a lovely Christmas too 🎄❤️😊
Gorgeous candlesticks, both the twisted wood and the Wedgewood. Also I love that pretty vintage biscuit tin. Some wonderful gifts! The Landscapes of Anne of Green Gables looks gorgeous. I have wanted to visit Prince Edward Island since I first read 'Anne' and of course 'Emily'. I didn't think anyone else felt this way!
I love a Traveller in Time, one of my favourite books. Been so lovely to watch this, though its several years later, thank you. My mum sadly died early in 2021, but she would have loved to watch these too. She gave me a deep love of books, with many of your favourite authors being ours too. During the first lockdown she wanted to reread Geogette Heyer books, so ordered her a regular supply from Amazon. She also enjoyed Josephine Tey, and Edmund Crispin who wrote early detective stories. Thank you Miranda, and Donna. I'm catching up, as have only recently found you, I'm so glad I did!
Absolutely LOVED this! Thank you for inviting us in to share all these lovely moments with you both. Merry Christmas, Miranda & Donna! xx
Merry Christmas! Thank you for adding joy to my life this year!
Thank you so much 😊🎄❤️
Merry Christmas to you both. Your videos have been such a joy this year and I love how much more confident your mum has become over the course of these videos. I look forward to watching more bookish content in 2021.
Thank you very much! 🎄💫
I’m new to your channel and busy catching up on old episodes, have just watched Christmas 2020, how interesting, lots of my favourite authors,also I live in Sussex quite near Charleston and have just been to the John Nash exhibition at The Towner Art Gallery, wonderful wood cuts.
Happy Christmas to both you, Miranda, and your Mum! I've recently found your UA-cam channel and truly enjoy each viewing. I should tell you that you have greatly increased my book wish list. Thank you for sharing your time, knowledge, and of course your Mum. Each viewing is a treat. Happy Holidays

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I wish you lots of health and wealth! Enjoy new riveting stories! May next year be full of fascinating books, amazing discoveries and exciting adventures! I do hope we'll be able to travel and explore new places. If not, books can always help. In my family we say that a book is the best present. By the way, thank you for 'An English Christmas' by John Julius Norwich, I bought it and chose excellent extracts for my students to read out loud)))) See you soon... 🍀🍀🍀
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed that anthology too. Merry Christmas ❤️🎄
