Third!! Rename this one to Booskar !! His role reminds me of the old Ginger Rodgers saying that she did everything that Fred Astaire did, but ‘backwards and in high heels’. So Mr. Boo does everything Tim does, only with a pitbull on his lap 😂
Lovely to see you TODAY! YOu guys are now like family (hear in the great white north). Cannot tell you how much joy you bring to my life - reminding me of days gone by - amidthe world's madness. Forgot to add that your choice of musical accompaniment on the road really makes me happy, and how much I love it when you eat lunch. My mouth was watering today - all I had was a cup of tea on the go..having said that, it was a nice cuppa Yorkshire Tea😉 Keep well, keep going.....and "Keep charged!" hehee💋💋💞👍 Patricia
Lovely village full of charm and glamour, indeed from the sky it looks like a snail. The food seemed to be delicious, pity about the construction works outside right in front of the restaurant, but anyway, nothing to be done about it. Mr. Boo is almost like a human encyclopedia, lol.
Another nice trip. Very relaxing. Thank you. Glad to see you are wearing your hat. And it looks like fiber is being installed, that brings the value of the place up.
Omgg John Noakes..thats a memory from the past - agree reference the Gladiators 😖 not the best TV and anyway much too interested in catching up with the Me and Mon Ami vlogs..Our two favourite people and Twiggy on the French Riviera ❤ Food looked delicious 😊
Thank you again for the highlight of my week! Ooh la la, the lunch was something relish even from way over here, and all for only the price of a hideous Burgerville combo meal in America only the wealthiest Americans can now afford. Special thanks to Mr Boo for his trivia contributions, It's always interesting to dig a bit deeper into the them, and I could not help but imaging Pablo, Jacques Brel and Saddam chatting over stewed prunes and veal. I much enjoined discovering accounts of Jacques Brel and is sailing and flying adventures. When Mr. Boo mentioned Brel learning to fly, I imagined him popping around the coast in Cessna 150, but had an old Beechcraft Twin Bonanza, (A timeless icon of machismo in the private pilot world), he explored the world in. Fascinating as well, the stories of Brel sailing sailing yacht around the world in his bathrobe. My fondest appreciation to Mr. Boo for mentioning Jacques Brel's foray into the skies. I just found a delightful video bio that tell of his flying and sailing adventures, the story of his discovery, and something that's unique to many in the musical and theatrical trades that blends with aviation uniquely well, and perhaps Tim you might be inclined in a similar way as Jacques and not realize it. The story related by Jacques's friend of the first time he took the controls was a delight. as it was very similar to when my father let some of his Hollywood buddies who used to travel with him take the controls and they became hooked. th-cam.com/video/ocEjUofhELE/w-d-xo.html The bit about Brel's joy over flying people in need with his beloved old Twin-Bonanza, brought joy to my heart as well. My father had a"T-Bone" the same colors as Jacques's. The front seet set three-abreast, and the single control yoke had to be tossed-over for the copilot to use, with the the co-pilot setting hip-to-hip. Heartwarming to see the young Polynesian boy setting next to Jacques as he was likely given the chance to pilot as well, just as my father and I did: th-cam.com/video/ocEjUofhELE/w-d-xo.html So many places that are home to interesting people with inspiring and heartbreaking stories on the French Riviera, and we are fortunate to have you to bring them to us.
Mr Boo, your reaction to Tim’s driving was priceless! Mougins is one of our favorite villages. That said, we are disappointed to see the construction. I emailed the village to ask when they expect to be completed. We will be there in October. Thank you for this video, without it we would not have known about the construction. ❤❤❤
Absolutely look forward to a bit of an escape ever Sunday while I live vicariously through your excursions! I could just hear my Nana up in haven telling Mr. BOO " well that desert will make you regular " lol As a retired 59 year old gay man ; don't think there are anyone i rather spend time with then the two of you. Always thankful to Fern for introducing you on her vedio two Christmas ago. Just love you guy's! ❤
Absolutely brilliant video. Just loved the day out in Mougins with you two. I so agree with other comments saying this should be on UK TV. Mr. Boo's face and expressions are priceless! Thank you and congratulations once again. One day I'm going to challenge you to eat a vegetarian or vegan meal! Jilly (not sure why it doesn't show).
I went there once, newer again, bloody nightmare getting up there. 39 of the 40 restaurants were shut by 2pm. Only the dearest one was open! Completely deserted at the time, I was expecting the Child Catcher to gallop into the square! This was in July too!
@@johnwalker6736 It did at the time, but the message was wrong for its core buyer who left it by the thousand over an 18 month period. Eventually it cost Strand everything.

That lunch looks somewhat better than the bag of chips I had :) the lasagne le boo looks great mmm :) I can't get over your saying it's warm their , here it's about 10 during day and 3 ish night. Thankyou for sharing your beautiful life with us Scott's
That lunch looked amazing! Another great video from both of you and wonderful shots of L’Escargot! Someone else said that you’re like family. I think many, many more of us feel the same way!
23:57 “Get your hands off my Lasagna” so, is that what they’re calling it these days? You two are on form as always. Merci for another entertaining and informative video. 💙🤍❤️
Hi ,this Is the Place we would like to visita Mougin,but we do not drive...can you suggest US wich bus Is going there from Nice? We went all around cote d'azur by buses,there Is a very efficient bus system,but some Place are complicated....any suggestion?Greetings Rita and Mauro
You missed one famous resident, the old post office that Mr Boo pointed out was the home of the well know painter and sculptor Roger Muhl, he was born in Strasbourg, Alsace but lived and painted in the south of France and Brittany, he died in 2008 and is buried in the local cemetery. If you return to Mougins village again, try the “Resto des Arts", we have known it for many years, the food was very traditional French bistro, but a few years ago the owner Gregory retired and the new young owner, who incidentally is a local, introduced a very individual style of french/African/Spanish fusion food. We were there a few weeks ago and were impressed, defiantly on our short list.
In regards to the wrap at 2:23, perhaps carving out a circle for the camera mount suction cup? And in regards to wraps, would a Picasso theme would be something to consider?
Love fish soup. Before I moved to France 27 years ago, I took tins of it home to the UK on my visits to see my future wife. My late MIL was from Hérault, so she'd make her own fish soup. Which was excellent, although I used to tell her "Je l'aime bien, mais je veux pas te voir entrain de la préparer(!)". Looking forward to this evenings new installment...
Hi lads from Spain where it has been a bit chilly and damp but not as damp as southern France. What is the music in this one? - it sounds very much Children's Hour - I was expecting Larry the Lamb, Dennis and Mr Grouser, any minute. The snail-like streets were another defensive measure. Those straight laid blocks for paving were not very imaginative nor artistic. In Spain, if you get chatty with the custodian, he or she will often take you to little secret parts of the churches not open to the public.
Mister Me and Mister Boo and Elton and Twiggy 🐕🐶❤ where else do expect to heat Blue Peter..John Noakes & a Blue Peter presenter alleged 'rent boy' 😂😂 As for nearly 7 Million folk watching Gladiators ENOUGH SAID TIM!!!!!!😮😮😮😮😮 another excellent vlog with just about everything for anyone who's daft! 😂😂😂🎉 stay safe and well and obviously stay charged 😉 🎉
Looks like a ghost town . I suppose in the summer the great and good from Cannes appear ? The portion for the main course looked quite large . From the drone it is snail like . Very enjoyable as usual.
Great job and video as usual. Did you ever get feedback regarding the young guy who had a very mediatic accident downhil in Monaco? You had interviewed his friend/passenger. Who's fault was that? Thanks. Damien
Sunday, 18 o'clock - i have something ready to eat and nearly as important some red stuff! It's Me and Mon Ami time - nobody should dare to disturb me!!! ☠
Another great video. I’ve always wanted to go to Mougins, very pretty (apart from the building work), definitely on my bucket list as well as Valbonne ❤
A man i know in Bracknell UK has an Ami he uses it to go to work and back daily literally only costs him like £1 a week to charge it , saves him a lot each month in fuel bills
I use mine every day come rain or shine, takes me and the wife to work and home again. costs us nothing to run and keeps the miles off our Scenic diesel.
@@ds9268 Saying that though I'm using a Courtesy car at the moment as my old i10 got hit by someone , I'm driving a Peugeot 208 1.2 turbo and was amazed how fuel efficient new petrol cars are , good example £6 of petrol=65 miles range not bad and that's with me doing 70mph motorway speeds , the Ami EV is brilliant for round town but my family lives 35 miles away so Sadly I need a petrol car as EVs are not good for long journeys
I think as I added a link to my comment, it didn't go through. Such an appealing insight into Mougins. Your trips and comments are far more fun than any tourist guide. I had a thought re. your overly hot Ami. I always associate the term 'wrap' with an external covering on a car, which really wouldn't suit your needs. There are a few companies that sell films for house windows that provide UV filters, tints, or complete obscuration. These are placed inside and DIY. The company I used was The Window Film Company in the UK. Hope this helps. Can't wait to see how you're getting on with the driving. Hugs to Twiggy.
Well you guys are certainly full of it !!! Great information that is.Mr Boo has certainly done his homework. Remember Tim you won't be able to drive down these small alleyways when you get your licence and another vehicle. Great video as always.🤘🤘🤘
Oh Mr Boo.. the look of relief when you finally landed at the carpark! I bet you were desperate to get your hands on that wheel. With the roof, if you really need to put something on it to reduce the heat, maybe just sacrifice the roof camera? Its a nice addition, but you still have the cameras inside the car, and the drone.
What beautiful blue skies 😮 Mr.Boo hit on a good point, the lack lived in homes there. It’s similar to some places here in Cornwall 🙄 but that was a super looking lunch. As always a very entertaining video, thanks guys
Mr Boo wins the prize. He reveals that the expensive villas around Mougins surround a corpse village that still manages to serve star-rated food. Nearby villages are more attractive in profile than Mougins--such as Eze and Saint Paul de Vence. Surmounted by antennae Mougins' colossal water can dominates the village immodestly and threatens a deluge. Although Tim commends the painted facades I think each block could benefit from dolling up one or two with potted geraniums and a cat perched inside a window, but then someone would have to take care of such accessories and, well, is anybody living there at all?
Evening boys. Couldn’t you just get a bespoke sun roof fitted? You’ve had your Ami for a few summers and winters now so you’ll know the temperature variability. I dread to think of you baking like hot potato’s for another summer 😅
Thank you for your video on Mougins. Extraordinary place, shaped like an escargot -and body apparently living there in February. Amazed to see someone else in the restaurant. Really good meal. I would have loved Tim's especially that delicious fish soup.
We live in Mougins (though not in the village) and also own an Ami. But, unfortunately, well, not too unfortunately, we are in California at the moment and missed you. Very insightful comments on Mougins. Though I will offer one slight correction, there are actually 12 families still living in the old village. But, Mr.Boo is right, the town is mostly second homes/Airbnbs.
Can you tell me what the liver dish is called again please? need to see the words in writing so I know what to look out for. Be great if you could do that with the food on your videos. Ta x
Absolutely with Tim on Gladiators. Or Badiators as I always call it. Rubbish from start to finish. Mind you, it's not as annoying as Bargain Hunt. Still, Charles Hanson IS on Speed Dial & he did make a cameo appearance in a video on my other, more sophisticated channel. Just Sayin' 😉
Another great video and what a lovely place. Would be interesting to see how it looks when the building works have been finished. Loved the drone shots of the escargot village.
Tim, remember 2fat ladies original premise? ..I seriously think that you two ought be doing some holiday travelogue stuff in the ami for tv, your patter, the views, the food, how about getting some regional tourist boards in on the game!?
@@MeandMonAmi I think times have changed Tim, you'd fit right in for a segment on (dare I say it **cringe** the one show, or even countryfile, ..not that "birdwatching" is your thing *cough* ..pure entertainment held liberace (for instance) in good stead, again a man with solid patter (& the ability to tinkle ferociously, lol) I just think you ought to put yourselves out there to a few media firms & see what happens, you might be surprised, if it worked for 2 fat ladies a bit of a mould breaker that led to the hairy bikers (another step up in terms of what it presented & preconceptions of types, then how about gap tooth tim (& mr boo) doing some mainstream media stuff, i'd start with your joint knowledge on micro mobility how you guys are at the lowest possible end of the battery scale & that battery drama for something with say 80 miles pange (an old 1st gen leaf) is on the sliding scale, they are sure to have EV pieces as a "entertainment news jumble" (I don't watch tv, realised come dancing reboot with brucey was 10 years in & i'd not seen owt, realisation of media changing, but the tv platform still applies for many, ...get yer fizzogs known!
The 1930s Chrysler AirFlow had a front windshield that tilted in and everyone says it is wonderful when the car is moving. How about a hood scoop with a sealed rain flap for your roof? When you perfect it you can sell it along with your other merch. With strong enough resin, you can 3D print it.
Le Moulin de Mougins was the best when I was an adolescent... long time ago, I am afraid. I must thank you for having been my main source of entertainment for one week or about... All I looked at where vlogs you edited within a one to two years period. One thing I have to say is that if life brings me into your neck of the woods, before year end, I will take you both out for lunch; my treat. I have been in France for the last 12+ years, returning from the USA, to come and take care of my dear Mother, who passed away in May 2022. My next task is to see that this 18th century Perigord property is being sold fairly. Thank you to have made my week a more pleasant passage. Kindest regards, Jean-Louis
Aha you guys have thought over what i said about wrapping the Ami that will be cool but hope you can make it work so you can still attach the camera equipment to it.
Can i give Mr Boo the Oscar for most patient supporting role in a TH-cam Series? He so deserves at least one! 👌🏆👌
I'll second that ! Oscar nomination for Mr. Boo!
Third!!
Rename this one to Booskar !! His role reminds me of the old Ginger Rodgers saying that she did everything that Fred Astaire did, but ‘backwards and in high heels’.
So Mr. Boo does everything Tim does, only with a pitbull on his lap 😂

Sorry we missed you and glad we weren’t wildly wrong on Mougins!
Great! Thank you!
You are welcome!
What’s with the cotillion music?
Can you tell me what the liver dish is called again please? need to see the words in writing so I know what to look out for. Be great if you could do that with the food on your videos. Ta x
Foie de veau.
Absolutely with Tim on Gladiators. Or Badiators as I always call it. Rubbish from start to finish. Mind you, it's not as annoying as Bargain Hunt. Still, Charles Hanson IS on Speed Dial & he did make a cameo appearance in a video on my other, more sophisticated channel. Just Sayin' 😉
Show off!;
Another great video and what a lovely place. Would be interesting to see how it looks when the building works have been finished. Loved the drone shots of the escargot village.
Thanks. Indeed. I think probably best out of season
Please can you remind me how we buy a coffee? Have no idea how I did it before!🤔
Found the link now
❤ love your videos I enjoy watching them from the beginning until the end
Thanks very much
Tim, remember 2fat ladies original premise? ..I seriously think that you two ought be doing some holiday travelogue stuff in the ami for tv, your patter, the views, the food, how about getting some regional tourist boards in on the game!?
Sadly I think the pre requisite of doing tv these days is you have to be a celebrity! But we might start doing a bit of cooking!;
@@MeandMonAmi I think times have changed Tim, you'd fit right in for a segment on (dare I say it **cringe** the one show, or even countryfile, ..not that "birdwatching" is your thing *cough* ..pure entertainment held liberace (for instance) in good stead, again a man with solid patter (& the ability to tinkle ferociously, lol) I just think you ought to put yourselves out there to a few media firms & see what happens, you might be surprised, if it worked for 2 fat ladies a bit of a mould breaker that led to the hairy bikers (another step up in terms of what it presented & preconceptions of types, then how about gap tooth tim (& mr boo) doing some mainstream media stuff, i'd start with your joint knowledge on micro mobility how you guys are at the lowest possible end of the battery scale & that battery drama for something with say 80 miles pange (an old 1st gen leaf) is on the sliding scale, they are sure to have EV pieces as a "entertainment news jumble" (I don't watch tv, realised come dancing reboot with brucey was 10 years in & i'd not seen owt, realisation of media changing, but the tv platform still applies for many, ...get yer fizzogs known!

Beautiful drone footage! Glad Mr Boo didn't have to grab the wheel on the road!
Ha! Thanks Julie
The 1930s Chrysler AirFlow had a front windshield that tilted in and everyone says it is wonderful when the car is moving. How about a hood scoop with a sealed rain flap for your roof? When you perfect it you can sell it along with your other merch. With strong enough resin, you can 3D print it.
Le Moulin de Mougins was the best when I was an adolescent... long time ago, I am afraid. I must thank you for having been my main source of entertainment for one week or about... All I looked at where vlogs you edited within a one to two years period. One thing I have to say is that if life brings me into your neck of the woods, before year end, I will take you both out for lunch; my treat. I have been in France for the last 12+ years, returning from the USA, to come and take care of my dear Mother, who passed away in May 2022. My next task is to see that this 18th century Perigord property is being sold fairly. Thank you to have made my week a more pleasant passage. Kindest regards, Jean-Louis
I enjoyed this Episode so much. My memory started flashing but I could not figure out why. 🧸🧸🚙
Aha you guys have thought over what i said about wrapping the Ami that will be cool but hope you can make it work so you can still attach the camera equipment to it.
We will have to do something in the next month
@@MeandMonAmiA nice Pink 🩷 chrome Wrap would look lovely 😃👍
I'm convinced Mr. Boo knows everything!
He does!
@@MeandMonAmi Google helps a lot too!
Michael Sundin !!
wow... you are a famous writer? cool... now your youtube videos have become even more interesting....
Ha!;
Tim you rememberer to take your hat off... did the same today in Mijas Pueblo...
It was a miracle!
This week's highlight is Mr Boo reverentially carrying Twiggy through the church as 16:22. 8-)
He has to smuggle her in !
@@MeandMonAmi I'm sure her behaviour was ... immaculate. 8-)
A veal lasagne and half the content of the brown bin..... A completely unnecessary amount of greenery.
I take it the brown bin is for the green stuff?;
@@MeandMonAmi Yep.
Another dull village with expensive unappealing food.
Glad you enjoyed!
Well, I certainly enjoyed it! Especially listening to Mr Boo's "funny you should ask that" collection of famous former residents! @@MeandMonAmi
