    Beautiful part of London, those colourful houses must cost an absolute bomb!! I hope that guy behind you at the end wasn’t pick pocketing your backpack, he was awfully close and you were busy filming.

    Mr. C, I really loved the video. Getting to see little corners of London, for us foreigners, is a great delight. I live in a Small village in Spain an don't go often to big cities, but you made me search where the nearest Fliying Tiger is after watching all the lovely things they have 😅. I have three stores, about twenty - thirty minutes from home without having to enter Barcelona. I've subscribed on their web and planning a trip soon. I don't know if to thank you or the opposite, I think it depends on how much I get to expend. I'm also a cat lover and have to take a look to all the cat shape products 😊. Thank you ¿?

    Thanks so much for the tour of West London. I love all the shops and how all the buildings and houses are kept historical. Really love how the houses are painted different vibrant colors. We don’t have a flying tiger shop here but, I really wish that we did. This was really fun being able to see the vintage and retro shops. Thanks so much for taking us along with you. Love the jacket you bought. Hope you have a wonderful week ahead. Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida.😎🦩🌞🦩😎

    It’s easy for those of us who haven’t been up to London in a very long time to forget how beautiful it can be….thanks for taking us along. Loving the things you saw in the charity shops too. 😍💚🧡

    So many charity shops to choose from. Great choices, but that one was way too expensive for me.😲 Thanks for taking us along. I enjoyed that.

    Hi Mr Carrington another great video. I loved seeing round the charity shops with you and the flying tiger I love that shop. Can’t wait to see what you bought. You always find amazing things. Have a lovely Easter weekend 🐣🐇🐥🐰x

  • @t66sha
    @t66sha ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Awww you were in my neck of the woods Mr C!! If I’d seen you I would have gone nuts 😂 I remember when I could pick up a designer item in Retro Woman for next to nothing, I can’t get over how expensive it is now. I’m going to take a look in Mind I always walk past and go to Traid.
    Thanks for coming to the west side x

  • @janiceburgess5906
    @janiceburgess5906 ปีที่แล้ว

    Lovely journey Mr C. Can I make a suggestion? When you do these little tours could you mark them on a map and show it so we can screen shot it? I’d be ever so grateful!! Some of the shirts were absolutely you.

    Fun video! Those "grow your own grass" things would be great for Mittens and Pumpkin, cats love a bit of grass to chew on, it helps aid with digestion, especially if they have upset tummies!

  • @lesleygreirson589
    @lesleygreirson589 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Great tips for exploring London , loved looking at the scenery without having to be an actual tourist .
    I’ve found that too in Copenhagen that as soon as you use the word retro or vintage,the prices are hiked up 👍

  • @jennifersherwood1901
    @jennifersherwood1901 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love your charity shop vlogs along with the ones Kate McCabe does also.
    I wish you would come to my area in Ruslip as we have C about 6-8 charity shops in the high street along with a Waitrose and coffee shops also. X

    Excellent! I love the area of Notting Hill. I had my first red velvet cake there, and I bought a vintage necklace. Everything was amazing, it’s great to see such fabulous stuff in charity shops! Thanks for the stroll around London and taking us with you:) have a great week!

    Mr C at 4.28 I think those display tins on the shelf look like the set you bought and showed us in your last video. ? Fabulous vlog I also liked the London sights from the bus. Great charity bargains for designer goods, still too expensive for me though 😫

  • @sootyginger4388
    @sootyginger4388 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Loved this but what interesting prices 😳 would be good if you went away from London for some charity shopping to compare. I liked the jacket .😊 The colourful house's are so pretty.

  • @ivyc7336
    @ivyc7336 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Mr. C! Wow I've never seen so many designer names in charity shops before. Usually it's quite a hodge podge of different brands in our thrift stores here in the U.S. You're actually quite lucky if you spot such high end brands & if they're in good condition no less. 😉 I absolutely love that part of West London, but the prices sure are steep! Regardless it is fun to just stroll around and browse. Thanks for taking us along. Much love from Fort Worth, Texas! 😊🦋⛅

  • @CobwebCottage
    @CobwebCottage ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I have a question . . . Do you ever get recognised, Iwan, when you're walking around doing your videos for YT? Does anyone stop you to talk if they recognise you from here, or, from TV? - (Steph's Packed Lunch, or from the Stacey Solomon programme: Sort your Life Out!?) - or any of the other places you're seen? If so ... do they get all soft and gooey, or are they after an autograph, or just simply glad to have seen you and chat with you for a while?

    • @Raquel_Tejera
      @Raquel_Tejera ปีที่แล้ว +14

      I always think the same. But if I ever get to visit England and bump into Mr.C or Luke Catleugh I will sure stop to greet them (and take a picture with them) 😅 it would be awesome.

    • @MrCarrington
      @MrCarrington  ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Cat's..🐈.. NEED FRESH GRASS in
      Their Diets....
      When spring finally arrives you might want to grow a long flat of Fress Grass for your cats...👍🏻
      (they will love you for it)💕
      It's very good for
      Up Set Stomachs
      They will eat it on their own if not feeling well...

    • @doratiscareno5856
      @doratiscareno5856 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I would grow the fresh grass out on my deck.... and bring it inside for 2 days and take it back out for 3 days.... then back in again
      Then finally replant it
      They just need a small flat of it
      a 12" ×12"👍🏻🐈

  • @nelliemelba4967
    @nelliemelba4967 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wow, the prices in the charity shops made my eyes water! I never thought I wouldn't be able afford to go there!😊 But it's interesting to see what's in them, in different parts of London. But I love Flying Tiger for good affordable ideas. Didn't it use to be called Tiger Tiger or am I having a Mandela Effect moment?! Thanks Iwan, I enjoyed the walk - it's been a while since I was last in London.

  • @ketherwhale6126

    Hi Iwan, thank you for this video. Loved all the colourful buildings. Some lovely things in the charity shops. The frame shop looked interesting, I enjoy buying interesting frames. Flying Tiger looks like , a fab shop, loved those cute cat bowls. The way you said tiramisu, made me think it must be one of your fav desserts. Looking forward to the video where we see what you bought. Gale x

    @wendygould4476 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Wonderful shopping expedition as always. Love, love anything brightly coloured. Adore all the Easter goodies on offer. In the first charity shop you visited I spotted a beautiful multi coloured bag just after you showed us the United Colours Of Benetton bag. Did you happen to see the label? I love the style and vibrancy. Thank you for sharing your shopping experience with us. I would have spent a fortune in every place you visited ❤️😊💛

    I do love your London tours, such a vibrant city. I was born in Wimbledon, worked in Putney and Tooting Broadway and lived in Wandsworth until I was in my mid 20''s, I had such a great city on my door step, yet I never really ventured into the city much. I remember going to Portabello Market once in the 70's, seen the Christmas lights once, and had a day out in Harrods one time lol! I too love the history and buildings, so beautiful. The charity shops were lovely, fillled with designer stuff, fantastic prices considering too. Lots of lovely stuff for Easter in the shops, Flying Tiger is brilliant, I absolutely have to go in if I am passing one! I really enjoyed todays Vlog Thanks Iwan for taking us all along with you. Cant wait to see what you might have found at the Car Boot if anything. Have a good week ahead x

    Oh my goodness. Literally broke watching all your thrift videos. I see so many things I want to buy. I do pause on an item take a photo of it and try and find it. Like the little metal shelf you showed at 8:24. I need 3 of them. Going to find something the same or similar. I have like this square wire black wall hanging thing like a fence that I use S hooks to hang things on and those shelves would look great with it. Thank you Mr C.
