I was recently reading an article on the theory of having 2 'sleeps'. there's lots about it on 'tinterweb... In medieval times (before the dawn of electric lights!!!) apparently people settled down to sleep at the end of the day and woke early hours 2-3 am... did some tasks then went back to bed for the 2nd sleep before getting up for the actual.days work..... I've been doing it for years but not voluntarily... still shattered! 🤣
The painting reminds me of when I was a child and had a spirogragh, it made wonderful patterns. I used to spend hours making different patterns and colouring them in.
Yes that was my exact thought too! I had a Spirograph!
Hey Sean
Sad to hear of Julie Goodyear having dementia, I loved her character she was so feisty!
I think when she left was the last time I watched Corrie, I was getting a bit fed up with the story lines.
I find that when I take a break from doing one thing I get distracted and start doing something else
I remind myself of a bee going from one flower to the next 😂
It was encouraging hearing you singing in the first part of the video,it seems that your spirits have lifted.
It's sweet that topsy and amber ' nose ' the camera, almost like sending us a kiss! 💋
Take care Sean 💜
What a talented artist Ben is. I would have his picture in your bedroom above your desk so you can sit and study it at leisure. I think the William Morris print suits your sitting room better. Nice cheery video, good to see you are feeling happier again.
I could see the 3D effect very well - light itself containing every colour is always a marvel to me, & how light changes our eye’s perception of mass & depth is fascinating. I follow a young couple who are doing extreme renovations to a house in Canada, & have watched them graduate to realising that they are not perfectionists, but a ‘good enough’ household, & how that increases their enjoyment of what they are doing. Really very meditative theme today!😊📿👏👏👏
It went crap when Emmerdale Farm changed😮
I see, I am not the only one who likes to sing when they're working in the kitchen. Cleaning even out and about I Hum, a tune just makes me feel good.😅
I agree about the shows. That's why I got into TH-cam. Tv garbage now
Yes I watch either TH-cam or Netflix, TV is also rubbish in Australia.🇦🇺
❤❤Aww your cats are beautiful sean I have 2 and a border collie🎉
Agree about Coronation Street. Should turn back to when it was the funniest, joyous programme. They changed to keep up with Eastenders, gloom, doom and violence. Stopped watching when that happened. 🙄
You mean when Ken barlows wife electrocuted herself with a hair dryer in the bath.
Same with me.
U tube has a lot of coronation street from the 60-70s so you can goe your fix on there.
@@ShelleyAnderson-g9g same here stopped watching all the soaps all got too depressing
Haven't had a TV for about eight years plus years and I used to be a TV acholic, when I go to my children's and watch TV I think I certainly don't miss this rubbish. I always have a chuckle when you put your hand through the shed window lol. Take care 🤗
Those little trays would be handy for holding pencils, scissors or box cutter and pruning sheers, plant labels, and twist ties or string! 😀
Picture is excellent Sean, just looking at it from the right it looked 3D, love that green bottle you found and the arch looks good too. Well done.
Thank you for the beautiful singing this morning. You're right about the gut/brain connection. Our bodies communicate information through the vagus nerve. The picture is gorgeous. Be well ❤
Sean I've just noticed where your gate is it looks like you've put the upright the wrong way round if you look at the top its chamfered outwards instead of inwards so that the top can sit on it properly
It's in the correct way.
I used to watch Coronation Street. They would play it on the CBC every Sunday. A week’s worth of episodes. A few pubs would play it shich was always a bit of fun. The last explosion I remember was when Underworld had a big fire!
That is a gorgeous piece of artwork!
The picture is amazing .it reminds me of what my daughter did .she had a large photo of her eye ball done abroad and the specks of colours are amazing and it's lovely to see she has some of my green in her eyes .also I personally think goodbye to TV you u tubers are the real stars and each one of you deserve a globe award x
Lovely bottle! Treasure!
I love having projects. I haven't had any in awhile but I do have a front and back porch that need clearing up on warm days during the cold months. This is a beautiful project you have going on.
One suggestion I could give you is put masking tape around the back of the picture so the dust and humidity does not get in and cause any damage to the picture.😊
Love the bottle. It was a great find. The arbor and gate look awesome.
Cant beat the Welsh at singing! Have you heard the Treorchy male choir lately Sean? Should go along, or even join!
I attended a charity show just before Christmas in the Millennium Centre . Treorchy Male Choir are amazing
@angelajane1038 I agree, last summer they were in America doing concerts, superb choir
Lack of light can make you depressed and that's why there are more people depressed in winter than at any other time. However, keep up with the probiotics although actimel is a poor way, and expensive way, to get them. I take them in supplement form. Without them, I'd be a mess due to cancer treatment destroying my tummy.
I also agree on your Coronation Street comments. There used to be more humour in the show. I started watching in the 80’s. In Canada, we are a few weeks behind the U.K. it is on every week night and on Friday there are 2 episodes.
Sean you have put the arch the wrong way around the 45 angles are facing out instead of in , take it apart before the concrete sets
You are wrong.
it has an apex top
The top makes the arch like a roof so it is the right way
Why are people telling him that. Isn’t it a matter of personal style or taste. I really don’t see how it matters structurally.
Right , I thought it was going straight across
Those little boxes might be good to store your seed packets. You could stand them up and flip through them, if they fit. 🙂
Nuts and bolts me thinks.
Sean ,I'm i missing something here with regards to the arch trellis?.In a previous video you shown a comment from someone saying that you are supposed to build the arch trellis first then position it in the ground and you was going to do that .or have you decided to do it the Frank Sinatra way😊.I can just hear you singing when it's done to everyone (I did it my way).
Another point with the trellis, you have the uprights the wrong way round, the mitre cuts at the top are around the wrong way
@@jonsambruck3818I don’t understand what difference it makes.
I don't watch soaps. The storylines are too silly. I liked it best when it was stories of everyday life. Much more relatable! Enjoyed your blog today Sean. 😊😊
Late 90s i used to have a Flat, Grays innBuildings( £50 a week!!)( London) just round corner fro. Channel 5,i always used to see Trevor Mcdonald ,going to the eataries at the top end of Grays Inn Road( these are the types of Z class rock n roll stories from my life in London(i have many), that hold me in good stead now i live in the Scottish Borders😂😂
Live broadcast TV is rubbish now, i stopped watching and only use YT and netflix etc. This morning is the worst show.
Years ago in glorious black & white tv days we enjoyed Coronation Street when it was heralded as from Up North and Granada TV was networked to those of us living down South out of their franchise area. The stories were enjoyable to watch- never took to the utterly miserable East Enders soap full of misery and despair. Haven’t watched either series for many years and apart from live sport and news hardly anything on the Sky Channels, but usually look for TH-cam uploads .
I love the new artwork. Just a thought - should the cement bags be protected against the rain?
Rain proof bags.
Yes. It was my HUMBLE opinion. We all have a preference with our decor. Just my thoughts. It's still a nice artwork. 😂
not watched mainstream TV for years now. I'm glad you're not the BBC "type" Sean given the scandals surrounding them on seemingly a weekly basis.
I agree with you. I stopped watching because it was depressing and ridiculous. My favourite episodes were ones involving humour and ordinary things.
I love that song.❤❤
Neat picture. Up close, it looks 3D. Like a cushion, or if you looked at it differently, a bowl.
Waiting for my first cup of tea of the morning and checked in to hear your singing, Lovely start to the day! Diolch.
Re the soaps....there's enough doom and gloom in the media....they should be entertaining and stay away from disasters which we hear about every day....just be lighthearted .... nothing like a bit harmless gossip....😊
Coronation street is just too political and ‘woke’, I think that’s what you call it. It’s just trying too hard to be something it was never supposed to be. Gone are the days of Fun and lite shows that everyone could relate too. Not just focusing on a small segment that has contempt it seems for true British life. Entertainment of late seems uninterested in what its audience wants. I just don’t get it. This is just my opinion and certainly not wanting to offend. Im an old man now, so what do I know. I do miss the old Coronation street of relatable characters. Oh the days of Elsie Tanner, Hilda and Stan, Alf, Bette, so many. Anyhow, I wish you well and enjoy your channel very much.
I looked up ITV eBay store and it says it’s not available in my area (USA). A positive feedback review from a buyer said she bought two costumes from an Ant and Dec show. Good to know the sales are only open to UK buyers (for now).
The 3D-effect is clearly visible in the close up of the picture. Really nice work of art! 🙂
What will be nice if you paint your balls gold on the fence post😉 use outside screws in zinc coated ones I think the ones are using rust away few days.
Golden balls 😂😂😂
I don't watch main stream tv at all these days apart from the local news (which is pretty second rate on ITV Wales) .TH-cam gives me everything I need....and more.
I'm usually switching off ITV Wales news after the first story.
You did not dig too deep, you were meant to find that bottle. There is no such thing as coincidence. I'm wondering if there is a code on the base that you can type in a search bar. I live at the entrance to an ancient hill fort and on the bottom rampart I found a cache of small bottles from the early 19th century. Turned out they were produced for a Chemist Shop, now long gone.
Thanks for the singing. More please. Gorgeous picture. What a talented artist.
Gate looks great ❤
You could save a lot of electricity, and keep the food chilled, if you don’t keep the fridge door wide open all the while you’re talking to camera 😀.
Lovely singing voice Sean!
Could you hang both pictures in the same area? (Both are stunning) Maybe with a 3rd of a tree / landscape / moonscape or something else. I can't remember the name for it, when things are displayed together in groups of uneven numbers, with a theme. (like the frame design).
Picture is lovely, but seems too small for above mantle, in front of your des would be just ideal
💟
Y’all seem to have the same weather as we do here in East Tennessee, even though you’re 15 degrees higher in latitude. I live in the Appalachian mountains.
Did you store your seeds in the cupboard under the stairs on one of the shelves ?
Found them yesterday!
I wonder if Albert Tatlocks rum tot is available to buy?
I remember as a child being genuinely scared when he rarely smiled, and revealed his false teeth.😂
I once had my bloods taken by a man called Albert Tatlock, he didn’t get the joke.
Sean you are doing great work in the garden. Gate looks nice. Can't wait to see when you get it finished. The picture is nice. Your cats are so cute. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend.
Hi Sean, nothing like a good rant to make you feel better! I watched Corrie from the beginning and never missed it but about 20 years ago I just thought this is ridiculous. I mean how many murders, explosions and affairs can happen on a regular basis in one small street? Don’t watch any soaps now. You always come across as calm and laid back when doing tricky tasks single handed - do you ever lose your temper?
So why don't you work for them anymore ?
I left London.
Maybe you should put the certificate in the back, before you put the board on, so that you dont loose it as its proof its number 1
We LOVE your singing. Chicago
lol, that brought a smile to my face at first light! 😂❤
TV is boring I think the soap awards spoilt all the soaps 😊
Interesting thought. Think you might have something there.
I think ITV know that they wont make that much money from ebay but i think its a great idea ..it gives fans a chance to get a momento of their favourite show or actor ..if Julie Goodyear was well enough to return i think she would be too old to wear the same style
Nice vibrato Sean.👍
Is the regime 7 days a week?
Every other day.
Beautiful print, it looks different everytime you look at it. Love the gate, it's nice to see it finished xx
What a bonus find for digging a post hole.. I can imagine your fist flowers in your homestead vase.. In the summer house.
Beautiful day to work on your to do list.❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Sean have you ever worked on Pobol y Cwm ?
Yes in the 1990s when it was filmed and broadcast on the same day.
More singing please X you mood looks more upbeat and back to your funny sayings ,the post in the homestead looking good ,keep up the good work x bit of sun does make you feel better x
please can you tell which probiotic strain Sean, many thanks❤
Watch this one th-cam.com/video/F5qOXlxTbUQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ry3aALLes6fgDVKE
@seanjamescameronthank you and many blessings upon you Sean…x
You got that table top fridge as you didn't have room in that kitchen for a fridge freezer did you?
Have to agree Sean stopped watching coronation street as there was two many murders and so much doom and gloom, and to be honest emmerdale is going the same way so that will soon be on my next turn tv off program 🤬
❤❤❤
In my humble opinion. The picture is too modern for your homely living room. Might be good on the stairs near a window?? Just my thoughts. I prefer cottage style, but it's your picture Sean. 😂
Wow. He wants to sit and enjoy it, not hide it away by the stairs. Not every opinion needs to be voiced.
Your singing is always a lovely unexpected bonus. Always such a pleasure. thank you.
Hello Amber and Topsy beautiful girls
It’s looks like it’s 3Dgives the impressen the shape of an eye.
Loving the picture sean .great job with the gate it's all coming together ❤
😊
Gate looks fabulous Sean ❤
I stopped watching Corrie and emmerdale about 5 years ago for the reasons you mentioned…too many serial killers, too many explosions and big dramas, I got bored, both programmes lost their humour and relevance to everyday life and all the best characters have gone. I’ve many friends who are saying the same, even those who still watch often say they don’t know why they watch anymore 🤷🏼♀️ I don’t understand their logic for constantly needing to “shock” it’s unrealistic and can’t work long term, I bet they’re already running out of storylines 🤷🏼♀️ I’ll stick to TH-cam ❤ Your channel is amongst my favourites ❤ xx
I watch Telltale Tarot and he just recommended your channel/said he has been watching you for years.
👍😊
That looks great much better Sean 😊 see bit by bit it's all coming together 😊
Hi Sean, lovely to hear you singing again! I was feeling a bit down so you cheered me right up. 🙂
I always like hearing about what you did in TV always interesting - i'll have to give that online store a look.
Well done on getting your arch completed at the Homestead, I thought you'd done a top job!
Tbh, when I first saw your new picture, I wasn't sure but the more I looked at it the more I liked it, I love the colours and when you moved close it did look 3d.
I agree about TV soaps, I used to watch Coronation Street and Emmerdale but as you say there was too much doom and gloom later on so that was that for me!
Oh and the drinking the water thing that's to take the edge of your appetite also as hydrating you obv.
Anyway, take care and catch up soon.
I stopped watching coronation Street after all the dramatics. I agree it wad so much better the way it was
I think it's great that ITV are dealing with sustainability by saving these items from landfill and they are giving all the money they make to charity. Win win.
On their website, they have 'Bet Gilroy' mugs (and others).
They are out of stock, not that I'd ever buy anything from them. However, they will let you know when they're back in stock... probably shipping them in from China so I doubt very much it's saving anything from going to landfill.
@dd7521 the ebay shop is run with a charity called propup project selling props from shows.
Love it that you found some treasure 🙂🙂🙂
Sean I believe you are right about Corrie Street. The new writers have gone over board and ruined the charm the show once had. They would only have one serious thing going on at a time and the actors were regular looking people with normal imperfections that we all have. Then the original writer left and things began to change. I remember the trolly scene with the death scene and murder. It was way too much and my mind said what the hell is going on. Then they started getting prettier women and handsomer men, I think to compete with the American Soaps. And every relationship was having problems. The story lines got more depressing. People watched because they could relate, there waa humour that we all need and a famliy like atmosphere. Well they wrote it away and the audience left because of it. I stopped when they were killing off babies and had grieving parents. I came back for a while but then they got into drugs murder and viokence and fatal diseases. We all have that in reality, I was enjoying having a break from real life. Thanks for your videos by the way they are relaxing and I enjoy your humour. ❤
Stopped watching Soap's 10 yrs ago, got bored every night 🥱
Are they selling off Ena Sharples hairnet of Martha Longworth's specs..... I thin that was the last time I watched.... Problem is , they are putting out 'cheap' TV... all this reality stuff is so old hat these days... and the kids that like that kind of stuff aren't the ones that pay the bills.
The bottle will look so lovely in your summerhouse with some of your fresh cut flowers 😊
Your audio is really good.
Thought you were a coal miner digging 😊
❤❤❤❤❤got to give j a heart for your singing I just love it lol
Your allotment will be turned into a garden paradise before you're done.🌹🌻🌷🌾❤
Tv is depressing these days and full of trauma I gave up watching it
