Hi Luke, I'm really sad as my lovely husband passed away on the 1st February, it was such a shock. Watching you and Iwans videos takes my mind off things for a little while. You are both like my friends. Thanks xxxx
It’s so sorry Marilyn, please be kind and take care of yourself at this very difficult time. I agree, I call them my friends too and am very grateful to them.
Oh Marilyn, I am sending you so much love and strength. I can’t imagine how heartbreaking that must be❤
Sending love ❤️
@@LukeCatleugh thanks Luke xxx
Sending ❤love to you. X
My Sundays with Luke are now a thing it’s so charming to watch
Trust me there is no such thing as a too big a shed as time passes you will find all kinds of uses for having a good size shed.
I have to agree, once you get a lawnmower, gardening tools etc. then in winter you will need to store the patio furniture and other items in there, a decent sized shed will be a godsend.
You can reuse that wardrobe in your new shed for shelving, utilise! 👍👍👍👍
Great idea 😊
Loved this video, Luke! When you said about filling the holes in the wardrobe, ikea sell little plastic plugs for around £2 for 100 - may be cleaner and easier than filling each hole!
Totally with you, Luke. I thrive in the Spring/Summer too, I feel alive! Bring on the Spring and Summer, hopefully both will arrive! x
They do small plugs for the holes instead of using filler on the ikea units and it means you can switch up the heights when you need to
All my clothes wardrobe at home are ikea pax. Sliding doors in the bedrooms and no doors on a spare small room I use for out of season clothes, coats, jackets, shoes, and other random things. I made the designs myself with the 3D program they have. You choose shelves, drawers, hanging bars, and it generates a list of every item you need to buy. I had them delivered, but we built it ourselves. The tricky part was hanging the sliding doors. It was a little bit difficult as it was a big wardrobe. When we bought my son's one, we decided to hire the assembly as well as the delivery.
I'm glad Maggie will soon have a new bed. She also deserves new things in her new home.
As always I love to see videos of you and Mr Carrington. Although you visit the same places, your videos are different, according to your own style. Thank you for taking us along. Tomorrow I'll be visiting Ikea and I'll have a look at the front door mat you have.
When pain waked you up.Nothing better than watching Luke and Euen.....Great vlog xxx
If you enjoyed Kane and Abel, try the prodigal daughter, which is the follow-up book.
Another enjoyable Vlog by you Luke. I think you need to have a coffee lol either before you go out or in a travel cup on the way to pick up Mr Carrrington.
That bath you showed us in Ikea was gorgeous, I just wish my bathroom was big enough to have one.
I love these sort of vlogs Luke 😊 it was a vlog I could have scripted of my own life and thoughts 😊.
I know you’re not buying your shed yet but believe me get the biggest one you have space and budget for you won’t regret it. Think of it as a self storage unit that you don’t have to pay monthly for 😂 those shelving units shouldn’t rust because they look like they’re galvanised steel but the screws they are put together with might. Just something to think about when you’re putting them together maybe give them a coating of WD40.
Me and the hubby were just talking about Ikea not being as cheap as they used to be. We’ve had an ikea kitchen for about 17 years now and because we went for a classic style it hasn’t dated at all and there’s not one door or drawer that has to have been tightened or fix.
I love world of books for my reading fix but I still like audible for when I’m on the move.
I don’t want to sound like a mam here but I’m pleased you’ve cut back on your alcohol consumption because it’s a very slippery slop to get get off especially when you don’t think you’re on that slippery slop. Looking forward to your next vlog already 😊 xx
Got my cuppa tea ready to watch this - love a trip to IKEA one of my favourite shops ❤
Have you looked at the Toilet with the Hand Basin on top? Absolutely Brilliant for a very small space.
💕🏴
An idea Luke, I used curtains to cover dining chairs, as it worked out cheaper and the thickness of the curtains made it quite durable. You may even pick up curtains from carboot/charity shops in a nice neutral colourway x
That’s a great idea!
I love it when you two are together! I am never quite sure of the spelling of Ewan?
Loved watching the two of you checking out Ikea. One thing to be wary of with Ikea appliances is how efficient they are and how costly to run. I did a Ikea kitchen reno in an apartment I rent out and to be honest while the doors/drawers are fine the tenant continually complains about the Electricity costs which can only be put down to the Ikea Fridge/Dishwasher/Oven/Cooktop. As you love to cook I would consider better branded appliances if you do change the kitchen one day. Those Pax wardrobes are brilliant though!
Luke I always look forward to your videos and honestly you always leave me with a smile on my face and make my day 🤩 Zara is adorable
I love waking up on a Sunday morning the first thing I think is to make a cuppa tea and watch your latest upload it's a vibe 😂❤ so glad the running is going well and that the charity are pleased 😊
Hi Luke - love you guys shopping together
Oh I need a new mat too - pick me one up please lol have a beautiful week. X x
Loving the shopping trip. Ewan’s kitchen is spot on, so we will be around.😂 Zara is a girl after my own heart, with biscuits requirements. Love the book review. 🇮🇪👍
Great Vlog. Lots of things to view and think about. My Sunday treat. X
I’ve had my Dualit toaster for 18 years and it’s still going strong. I went on their web sit a few years ago and purchased the sandwich cages and the bun warmer. Heather
I buy mostly second hand items . Everything else i buy on sale. My home is modern, antique and bo-ho style. Luv your blogs. Have a great coming week.🇨🇦❤️
Luke recommending Winchester as a day trip if you haven't been. Lots of nice shops and have a look at the Arc😊
Years ago my House had a call shed in the outhouse so I remove the old latch door and put a door on that matched the rest in my home I skimmed the walls, I made chunky shelves. I now have 2 small chest freezers in this now cupboard with floating chunky shelves which house all my 12ish small appliances.
I revamped this myself.
Wouldnt advise you getting furniture on the never never. If your job situations change you'll do well trying to keep up with mortgage and repairs etc. You dont have it all in first year. We defo ate alot of beans on toast, no holidays for couple of years after first purchasing house.😂
Random but the sichaun restaurant next to Greenwich ikea is my absolute fav! Highly recommend. X
Fisrt, yay Looking forward to see what renovations your planning to do. Happy Sunday x
It was great to see you going round Ikea have'nt been to one in years. I want to get a cover for my sofa so will be going at next opportunity 😊
😄 You & Iwan's banter is too funny "meatballs"
We're expecting an IKEA, in the back country 🙄... can't wait!
@Zara, my hack has always been to tap the metal lid, of jars that have been boiled on, on a hard surface until you hear the pop or air releases. I always use our marbel counter top or tiled floor. Never fails.
Traitors, will give the Oz one a go. I loved UK S2. But could'nt finish UK S1.
Thanks Luke 😊
HI luke the fish jug in homesense my mother had one when i was growing up 50+ years ago she used it as vase x
IKEA do a design service Luke too for wardrobes etc x
The way you say, ok when Zara says it tastes stouty 😂 so funny!! That whole bit was so funny but it is awful once you’ve decided something is vile and you just can’t eat it!! X
yay new vlog, but i missed maggie!
Great Vlog, I've just ordered my copy of "The Housemaid Book", thanks Luke.
Hi Luke! I'm with you of feeling all over the place. I'm also in the same boat right now since I've injured my right lower back & hip recently. It's been quite difficult to get things done or even think straight from the pain. 😔 Always love a good shopping vlog with you & Mr. C though so that lifts my mood. I haven't been to Ikea in a while and it's nice to see what they have that's new. I'm sure the Pax wardrobes will look lovely once their in. Thanks for taking us along as always! Much love from Fort Worth, Texas! 😊❄🌬
You have both done so well x
Now I want to go to IKEA. I laugh every time you mention the "wardrobe of doom". I think you did a good job repairing it, should last a while now!
My daughter has pax wardrobe 8 years and still good as new!
This is what is so good about your blogs, they are so natural. Makes it real. 👍👍👍👍👍😁💗💗
Happy days !! 💜💜💜✨✨✨. Great video Luke.
Love an Ikea and HB trip. So glad you enjoyed Swimming in the Dark, beautiful book. I've read the Rooney book and her Normal People and I didn't like either really, not one for her writing. Did love the tv series of Normal People though 😂 Started One Day on Netflix recently and enjoying it so far. Haven't read the book however. Have a wonderful Sunday 🤎
When I got my airfryer, I was rearranging to fit it in . Most people I know have one, just have it sitting on the hob, and iv seen on some utube channels they also have it sitting on the hop.
Luke pax wardrobes are brilliant i have nearly floor to ceiling just a tiny gap at the top four doubles one single in my room combination of rails and shelves they hold all clothes and bedding etc etc i have light oak fronts have had them for 18 years or so well worth buying x
ps i have re configured them into different layout to hold different things over the years x
Hi Luke - do NOT get a free standing bath. They are almost impossible to clean behind, and grime does accumulate there. I had a gorgeous, original claw foot bath and it was so impractical I got a built in after 10 years of struggle! Lol
HAPPY SUNDAY My Friends: Luke, Zara And Maggie- What A Way To Wake Up And Watch My Favorite Friends: Luke And IWAN Together Shopping At IKEA. Zara You Are Such A Wonderful And Beautiful Roommate And Friend 😊❤ All My Love To You All- Stay Warm And Cozy In London-From: Your Friend In San Antonio, Texas USA🤠🇺🇸❤️🥰
Happy Sunday Luke, Zara and Mr C!! Double Luke and Iwan today and double IKEA makes me a very happy girl🥳😃 you're inspiring me to get back to reading and I have loads of books to get to! Loved the mock tail book and I would really enjoy a video of you making some from it.
An few ideas to strengthen the wardrobe more as you have not got the back piece that holds the frame square there will always be some tension on the frame so I would buy an new piece of hardboard or even ply wood to fix onto the back or failing that some wooden struts across the back attached the the sides would strengthen the frame. You can see where the floor is uneven as the wardrobe still leans towards the wall so adding a thin shim along the bottom of that side would lift it to be more square, try placing a level on top to get the right adjustment shim height.
Funny as I watch your video from Canada 🇨🇦 drinking Fortnum and mason tea and walker’s shortbread ❤🇨🇦
Longer days adds up to getting more done. I love the longer days too. 👍👍👍👍
I enjoyed journeying with Zara, Your self and Mr C
Missing Maggie as well looking forward to seeing her soon❤
All the way through I was looking for Maggie😂
fab video guys, shame Zara didn't like the Chilli. Homebargains have some fab things their storage solutions are good too. not been to Ikea but they look as though they have some great items. xxx
I have just watched “One Day” get your tissues! 💗
Love IKEA @Homebargims, great vlog Luke. ❤❤
Hi luke great vlog love having a nosey around the shops wit u & Iwan some great bits in IKEA sadly we don't have one near me otherwise I'd be in there 4 days😂 love the new kettle & toaster very stylish, ur plants r blooming in the window, have a great weekend lots of love to u zara & Maggie 💞💞💞
Great video luke thank you ❤️💜🐶
Hi Luke, enjoyed your vlog, l know what you mean about Jeffrey Archer but a very good writer, l have just read a series of books called The Clifton Chronicles really enjoyed them, will have to give Kane and Abel a read, as you say your wardrobe will be fine for now until you get something more permanent, your book choices are great will check some of these out, love your kettle and toaster lovely gift x
Zara,I understand.I can't eat food that stinks either.I'm not pickey,but I don't do stinky.
Loveyour vlogs they cheer me up so much looking forward to 3 next week😂 oh yes non alcoholic cocktails yum I have the Arkitech Dulite kettle love it
Luke, you do know that you can sell your garden shed and put the money towards your new shed right? Many are looking for a large shed! They will take it down too! Even without its roof!
You are TH-cam’s Ant & Dec. Does Zara have a channel? I love her sense of humour too
Setting yourself challenges to read 30 books well done you.
I love your new kettle and toaster I have a Dualit one they are a good make and yes expensive but should last you years and you work hard the pair of you so you can afford to treat yourselves. You can get metal and plastic sheds which require less up keep.
Luke you and ewan should of hired a van to pick your furniture up no your paying for it to be delivered but might be cheaper hire van for the day do run to your house and then to ewan House then drop the van back off at end of the day
Did you no that ikea have clearance area if going in to buy something look there first might get it cheaper and also ikea buy back stuff you brought if still in good condition that bits near the tills
Have you read Honeybee by Craig Silvey? Fantastic book “chronicles the coming of age of fourteen-year-old transgender narrator Sam Watson, who was assigned male at birth. This is a story of desperate loneliness and fear … but also one of love, solidarity and the kindness of strangers”
That book one day sounds a bit like the fab film before sunset... its a trilogy, after sunrise and before midnight, i think the other two are called. The first 2 were FAB.
Luke, I believe you can get a corner unit for these wardrobes? Ask!
Hi Luke and Zara. Wonderful trip to IKEA and time spent with Iwan. Love when you two get together. Will be happy to see Maggie back home as she is missed.❤❤❤
Luke be careful what you put in pots with no holes in the bottom, overwatering can kill your plants and sour the soil. The daffodils are lovely. I have some blooming in my garden area in pots out in front of my condo fence. They just brighten the day so much.
Have a fab week you guys. Loved Zara as she spoke about her food and not liking it, sometimes it happens that way… Hope she found something to eat instead. Love to you both. ❤❤❤
So pleased your run fund raiser is doing so well. I hope you reach £5000. New goal
That's what happens when you visit Scotland. You come back craving Irn Bru. 😂
Im visiting in April. Loving your vlogs (and Mr. C too). I much prefer to visit some interesting local shops for some nice homewares / clothes etc. So much more meaningful and interesting than expensive souvenir dust collectors. THANKS!
Great video Luke. I really enjoy watching and listening to you. I put some more of your books on my waiting list. I did just finish Kane and Abel. I enjoyed it to some extent....I appreciated the scope of it. Had never read Jeffrey Archer before. In the end I thought there wasn't much in the way of character development. Thought they weren't deep enough (I mean how many times did he have to remind the reader that Abel had a limp). And where were any gay people. But oh well....currently reading "Holly" by Stephen King and so far it is holding my interest. I really like everything about your videos. You make it all look so easy....but I know it's not. Best to you!
I love my Ikea Pax wardrobes - mine are over 20 years old(!) and still going strong. I love that I can still buy interior fixings and things for them, to change them up occasionally. I also think its great that you're keeping your old wardrobe going for a bit longer - showing others that you don't need to have everything brand new all at once. Make do and mend is a great lesson to learn and a great way to help your money go further!
Great to see you Luke enjoyed your book review.👍
Hey Luke! Congratulations on having su h a good dog. You can place your toast on your countertop, and your beautiful dog won't steal it. We have four dachshunds, and they are all thieves. We are never alone in the kitchen.
If you still have the receipt for when you bought the shelves at £35 you can take it back and Ikea will give you the difference (in vouchers I think)
Good morning Luke. Popped to our local IKEA Friday night for Billy Bookcase. We love it in IKEA. Could spend a fortune. Your daffs are gorgeous. My fave flower 💛 xxx
Much as I like IKEA products do look at other wardrobe systems, I just could not get their sizes to fit it's too much depth It is a few years but I had 3 wardobes with my internal choices all fitted mine were from a company who sells beds
As I don’t drive I have to rely on my friend offering to take me to ikea so love to see what they’ve got. I read the housemaids secret and it was such a good read & good twist 👍🏽 also recommend the maid (nita prose) and she has a sequel out now too - also a fun thriller ❤ would love to see a non alcoholic passion fruit martini ❤
Great vlog Luke love Zara’s reaction to the chilli bless her I know how she feels sometimes it’s the smell that gets us. Can’t wait for your renovations to start👍and welcome hoe to Maggie too x x x
Oh they did a 12 part series on Cain and Able years ago but watched it recently on u tube it’s fab great actors. Peter Strauss and Sam Neill both great actors acted the parts of Caine and Able def recommend
The food looks good. Nice vlog.
I thought The Housemaid was before The Housemaids Secret
I don’t have a home bargains or home sense near me so I get a bit envious when I see the bits and pieces you show from there - I guess I need to plan a day trip to a big retail area. Lovely to spend the day with you, now I’ll pop over and see what Iwan bought.
Homebargains are online
@@catherinebarlow3079 thank you, I will take a look.
Find a throw or even use duvet cover material for recovering your upholstery ??? Xx
Hey Luke, I loved your new toaster and kettle so much so that I ordered them for myself, they arrived today and are bloody gorgeous ❤
Think you are jet lagged lol Luke falling over.
Hi Luke have you read the housemaid? i have literally started in the bath this afternoon and cannot put it down about to pour a glass of wine and spend the rest of the evening reading it will let you know what i think x
I didn't know that Guinness chili con carne was a thing. I thought I invented it. 🇨🇦 😆
My Dualit Kettle blew up! I will never buy it again. Thankfully got a refund.
I loved Swimming in the Dark too. The Sally Rooney one sounds great too.
apologies wrote comment before i watched to the end of the video x
Did he just put sour cream or mayo on the chili? My Texas self is crying!
I hope you read this. I wanted to say that if this is a home you plan to be in for at least a few years, I strongly recommend you don’t get a combination unit of the oven and microwave together. I have that in my home, it’s not IKEA but a more traditional brand, and it’s been awful because the microwave quit working years ago but I would have to replace the entire unit, thousands of dollars, to get a new microwave. Consequently, the microwave is useless and I have a working microwave sitting on my counter taking up valuable space.
Luke, thank you so much for posting this video on my Birthday, February 11th just after midnight on the west coast! My present from you is just being able to see your incredibly beautiful blue eyes!
Ahh happy birthday to you!!❤️❤️
You did promise your self a moving in gift of the toaster and kettle
It was a lovely calming video luke x
Still waiting for Kent to get an Ikea. I love the meatballs
