I was watching a vlog this afternoon and thinking of doing one. Funny to then see you and this. I used to make them too but never put them on the blog, years ago. Makes a change. Ta very much.
I love listening to your voice, John! Canadians are said to have a very flat accent(except for Newfoundland and Cape Breton in Nova Scotia, whose ancestry is strongly Irish and Scottish), and a great many of us are entranced with UK accents - British, Scottish, Welsh, Irish.
Nice to have a tour and see the fur people in action, now including the horses.
Hope the rest of your Sunday is restful and that you have a good week ahead.
Loved hearing your voice. Liked seeing the sights, the fur balls and such. George was frozen time! Did you climb over the fence or do a bit of a run and fly over. Liked watching, listening . . . more??
Wonderful vid! I enjoyed watching all your pets doing their thing: Albert on high, Mary chilling below, Winnie and William coming in from the outside, and George poised and attentive in the yard. Those are beautiful and serene horses. And Irene is so full of energy, running all over the place!
You're also full of energy hopping them tall fences and trudging through the bushes to get us some great shots. Thank you.
I hope you have boots for wading through the horse fertilizer...or have access to a garden hose to wash off the funk and gunk off your shoes.
Oh, that was nice, seeing your dogs, and George is quite funny, having a thinkabout. Then a little meander into the horse field, and it is nice to hear your voice. Thank you for sharing this. Makes me think I need to get out more.
My dog came rushing over when she heard all that tutting. Truly an animal whisperer you are! Lovely horses. Britain has always done horses well. We're a bit obsessed with high strung thoroughbreds and quarter horses over here.
This was so much fun to watch, John. I really liked seeing where you live and your menagerie. You have a very resonant voice, perhaps you could have a 2nd career as a reader of books for the blind!
I was planning to move WITH my husband to a city address so the animals had to go. Then . After they went things changed. If I stay the village will be 're populated
Enjoyed the video John... you need one of those GoPros that you can mount on your head... leaves your hands free for gate climbing. It looks pretty dry but the horses (& Irene) are in super condition. Terribly dry over here in parts of NSW. We just came back from a trip to visit No 2 son and it was really depressing, dead native animals from car hits every 20meters or so - un believable - they come to the roadsides to feed. Lots of cattle being herded in the 'long paddock' - its a real concern the droughts and fires globally. Re William.. have you tried a coal tar wash such as Pinetarsol. I had a dear dog who had skin issues and many of the prescribed medicated shampoos only irritated further. I tried the coal tar soapless wash (Pinetarsol brand but there are many) and it made such a difference. Good for Psoriasis & eczema too.. might help. Loved your family pics and hearing you too.
(PS.. Russell is in town doing location shots for a new movie The True Story of the Kelly Gang.. woo hooooo)
Loved the Vlog . I am so glad My George is happy today! Would rather watch your dogs Any Day than those shocking Kardashian's --- hell, Winnie is far prettier and no surgery either LOL !!
John my daughter has a dog that is plagued by itchy skin too...The only thing she has ever found that worked was colostrum... apparently you can purchase it... not sure where... but it helped almost immediately.. Come to find out the dog has a terrible immune system ..perhaps because of being taken away from its mother at a very young age...And this colostrum helped... Maybe giving it the immunity it didn't receive from its mother.. You might ask your vet.. They might know where to get it.. Loved the video... I found your voice shocking and totally did not fit the picture i had in my head of you.. But good to see you and the animals.. Hugs! deb
Well, this was an Excellent way to start off my morning !! I wish I was there, I want to pet a horse again ! and climb fences and chase after silly pups .. it was all just perfect .. Thank you John, I loved this.
ps the only thing worse than a knucklehead spammer is one that repeats itself ...
I love this! I hate the sound of my own voice, so don't think I'd ever do this. Your voice, on the other hand, is a pleasure to listen to... despite all the grunts and groans.
There was a lot of tutting going on. What have you got to tut about?

ReplyDeleteLove all the dogs doing Sunday morning chores. The Horses are beautiful ! Lovely video.
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
George standing stick still amused me
DeleteBeautiful horses and so nice to hear Irene's voice. What DID have George so entranced.
ReplyDeleteThat's him all over. Say anything to him. And he'll just stand for an age thinking about it all

Oh I enjoyed this John! It's always wonderful to see Albert and the dogs and now we also got to see the horses and Irene. What a treat!

You have a lovely calming voice John. I enjoyed walking around the field with you. More of these vlogs please! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with other people here-you do have a very gorgeous voice John.Hoping William is feeling a bit better x
ReplyDeleteHe's plagued with an itchy skin
DeleteMy lily had skin problem which test did not identify ,it didn't seem itchy-shampoo,antibiotics & cream helped her x
DeleteLove your deep voice and (to my American ears) accent.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you owned horses.
I don't they are a friend's on loan
DeleteEnjoyed your video! Loved hearing your voice and accent again too!
ReplyDeleteNot a hint of an accent after all your years there. Wish I knew what things to press on my camera to do a vloggy thingy
ReplyDeleteI lived in Yorkshire for 20 years before this
DeleteLoved hearing your voice John.
ReplyDeleteOh, that was nice, seeing your dogs, and George is quite funny, having a thinkabout. Then a little meander into the horse field, and it is nice to hear your voice. Thank you for sharing this. Makes me think I need to get out more.
ReplyDeleteI just closed my eyes and listened. Velvet!
ReplyDeleteI used to like your old videos with the helicopter constantly flying overhead.
ReplyDeleteI remember you saying that , the new smart phones are better quality but silent
DeleteI really enjoyed that. Didn't have a pocketful of apples and carrots? My Gracie would have bitten the crap out of me if I didn't.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed that immensely. Your speaking voice is as nice as your writing voice! That was a lovely little walkabout - thank you.
ReplyDeleteHow delightful, you are very good at going over those gates. WInnie is so cute.
ReplyDeleteLike a jungle cat
DeleteLovely walk, enjoyed seeing your corner of the world, thank you
ReplyDeleteThat was awesome! Thank you for sharing! (I’m intimidated by horses although they’re beautiful creatures.)
ReplyDeletelike the video.
ReplyDeleteMy dog came rushing over when she heard all that tutting. Truly an animal whisperer you are! Lovely horses. Britain has always done horses well. We're a bit obsessed with high strung thoroughbreds and quarter horses over here.
ReplyDeleteThan you for that lovely bit of a walk around with your lovely voice over.
ReplyDeletelovely horses and shy but talkative irene. and the house companions all on video. and you KNOW british accents make me go weak in the knees! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was as if I'd rehearsed the video ..every character in place !
DeleteThis was so much fun to watch, John. I really liked seeing where you live and your menagerie. You have a very resonant voice, perhaps you could have a 2nd career as a reader of books for the blind!
ReplyDeleteI was chuffed all the players played their part
DeleteJohn, I am a relative newcomer to your blog, I would love to know what happened to the Ukrainian village and it's inhabitants?
ReplyDeleteI was planning to move WITH my husband to a city address so the animals had to go. Then . After they went things changed. If I stay the village will be 're populated
DeleteNot one, but two huge holes in your life.
DeleteEnjoyed the video John... you need one of those GoPros that you can mount on your head... leaves your hands free for gate climbing.

As a newbie to your blog they are a first for me - I liked it.
ReplyDeleteLoved the video John, especially hearing your wonderful melodious voice as well as your gorgeous animals xx
ReplyDeleteIt must be ESP; I've talked about a pair of horses today too. Your two look very healthy.
ReplyDeleteYou sound so 'well-spoken' here. Why am I surprised? Shouldn't have been.
ReplyDeleteLoved the Vlog .
ReplyDeleteI am so glad My George is happy today!

ReplyDeleteLovely to hear your voice.
ReplyDeleteCharming in every sense of the word. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGreat video. Lovely to see your gorgeous furries and listen to your mellifluous voice.
ReplyDeleteNice to hear your voice again and had to giggle as you climbed over the gates ! X
ReplyDeleteWell, this was an Excellent way to start off my morning !! I wish I was there, I want to pet a horse again ! and climb fences and chase after silly pups .. it was all just perfect .. Thank you John, I loved this.
ReplyDeleteps

What a lovely spot. I can see why you love the cottage and surrounds. I hope you can stay.
ReplyDeleteI love this! I hate the sound of my own voice, so don't think I'd ever do this. Your voice, on the other hand, is a pleasure to listen to... despite all the grunts and groans.
ReplyDeleteLovely video John. It's a shame to see the plot overgrown and I hope that you're able to stay in the cottage and have pets there again.
ReplyDeleteThank you John..loved the tour. So impressed how easily you climbed the gate. Mardy🇨🇦
