On today's autism family vlog: Andy is going on his first ever holiday in a hotel, but first he needs to go on the longest journey of his life. We head to Blackpool for a vacation thanks to Premier Inn, who have partnered with us on this series and are providing the room to us free of charge. This first video in the playlist shows us the journey, Andy's first impressions of Blackpool and some emergency back to school coat shopping!

ABOUT KEVIN CHAPMAN
Hi, I'm Kevin Chapman, a full-time TH-camr, author, podcaster, speaker and occasional teacher from Peterborough, UK. As part of my daily vlog I release new videos every day at 5pm UK time with topics including life as an autism family, conventions and geek culture, technology, education and tutorials and entrepreneurship.
When I left my full-time as a Computer Science teacher in July 2017, my partner, Anna, was trapped in our house by our son Andy, who is autistic and had refused to go to school for 18 months. Our daughters Lucy and Amy and our dog Dave hardly saw me because I was always working to try and solve all our problems! Today I'm a full-time content creator who's always at home when my kids get home from school (all our kids!) and Anna has been able to return to university. This channel is the story of my family's ongoing journey! Previously known as lollujo Vlogs.

Massive thanks to Premier Inn for sponsoring this series of videos and making it possible for us to take Andy on his first ever proper holiday in a hotel.
Kevin Chapman you know how you wanted to get him a proper camera. Well I Used a proper camera that would be held portrait and recorded landscape
Kevin Chapman try the premier inn in Swansea it has a beefeater and a Tesco on site and their a train railway nearby and boats and loads of buses
I really like Andy. His communication is simple and to the point, but still (to ppl that understand autism) works.
Kev- “are you enjoying the drive?”
Andy- “premier inn”
Translation- I don’t mind the drive as long as it gets me to where I want to go- the premier inn!
WhiteLiteBarbie my cousin has autism and people never understand him so thanks
I would say the translation to that was actually. Take me to premier inn already! Lol.
Premier Inn thank you, this is epic.
I hope you all do have a good time, I hope Andy gets to enjoy his premier inn time.
I’m so happy that Andy made the car ride to the hotel and that he’s enjoying himself.Way to go Andy.
how foolish of you Kev to ask Andy if he wants to take the stairs haha
Its great that Premier Inn sponsored the Blackpool trip, I hope you all enjoy it.
Awh he was so excited to stay there bless him! So glad he got his holiday.
Think uns guys are great. Andy clearly is hard to work with and I think you guys give him the best chance and life possible. Respect to uns all🙏🙏🙏
He loves premiere inn just as much as I do lmao
I went ro blackpool 4 years ago and stayed in that exact premier in . The breakfast in the pub is amazing and i think kids eat free , its like a buffet ITS AMAZING , have a great time all of you best wishes, Archie :)
Congratulations on 60k Kevin 🙂🎉🎉
Go Premier Inn! ☺️
That's so great
Great video Kev. Hope you guys have an awesome time at Blackpool 😀😀
Wow, Andy is doing pretty well so far! A huge congratulations to him for wanting to go to Premier Inn! I hope he continues to do well. I was just wondering but do any of the Premier Inns have swimming pools? I cannot wait to watch more of the holiday vlogs! ✌🏾️
Been here since around 2k, and the invincible season on FM17. My this place has grown.
I saw you today in coral island in prize bingo I loved Andys dancing!!!! X
You should have said hello!
Kevin Chapman oh I regret not saying hello! I don’t think u would of recognised me I had a pink jacket on? X
I couldn’t really see anyone or anything in there with my sunglasses on! I really need to start bringing my normal glasses out with me too!
Kevin Chapman haha I hope u have enjoyed your holiday!
Good video kevin. I love you and your family they are such an inspiration to our family as my sister and brother are autistic so you guys really help😊
Elliebb 13 so is my brother
I can relate so much
Thomas Talbot 😊
I am autistic I understand the problems he goes through but I was medicated instead I mostly have problems with changes and going back to school
Hiya Kevin it was nice meeting you in primark today if I am in Andy’s eyes video please can you keep me in it thanks good night
Will do! It was good meeting you!
I have been waiting for this video for ages and it’s finally here live the video and keep up the good work #premierinn aaahhhh
Your vlogs are amazing and I never get bored, you guys are amazing and keep up the great work 💜💜💜
Tbf the last time I went up the tower I was crying ma eyes out 😂
Is that Hartshead Moor Services!! Hours of my life spent there, days on the M62 no doubt. Have a great trip
Lol...'go to Premier Inn', 2 sleeps, go home'.... exactly how my husband travels...
Have a lovely couple of days away! ☺️
So so happy Premier Inn sponsored you!
Nice one premier Inn for making it possible for your to go to blackpool you all deserve a holiday
"The infamous green coat" :D!
I think I staid in that exact room and I loved it did a cheerleading competion could you show me the view out of the window xx
Kev: are we going down the stairs
Andy: noo 😂
I live in Blackpool but was in Wales when you were here damn it!
I finished this video on 1% remember me boys!
This is very strange seeing you walking round my local Tesco!! I live in a little village called Freckleton but that's the nearest big Tesco for miles. If in blackpool definately recommend popping to lytham, little quaint town on the beach 10 mins down the road :) would have come to the meet up today however was working till 5pm :( hope you're all having a good time xxx
Loved today's vlog, enjoy Black pool! Can't wait to see tomorrows video
How was Andy’s first night? I hope he had an amazing first day!
That’s cool that you got sponsored by Premier Inn, I bet Andy loved it! ( haven’t watched the full vlog yet!)
I SAW YOU IN THE BLACKPOOL TOWER my dad came over to you cuz I was to shy 😂☺️
+Kevin Chapman did Andy enjoy his first night at Premier Inn
I hope you have a wonderful time at Blackpool Andy
premier inn is love. premier inn is life
Loads of chip shops on the back streets. There’s a belter right at the end of north pier behind the hilton. You can sit n and park nearby. Lovely food there.
I agree with Andy's no eyes rule. I have adapted to it over time especially with some special interest related things but things with eyes on creep me out. I still can't do blankets or things with real people faces on them.
Omg i was there the same time as you in exact same bit 😂
Lucky Andy! And good job! 🎉💙
Love the intro!
Hope Andy enjoyed his night away from home in Blackpool
You should to a what’s in my travel bag where you could show what your and Andy bring, I’d love to see what kind of games and systems he brings with him 😊
That Tesco is 5 minuets away from my house I always go they 😀
I’ve travelled 4.5 to 5.5 hours between Thunder Bay and Winnipeg a lot in a car
I’m going on Monday so sad couldn’t meet u
Thanks #PremierInn for sponsoring these videos!
Oh brilliant you got a paid promotion well done. I warned you it would be chilly I think we’ve had our summer for now lol
I went on holiday to Blackpool at that same time. And I also had dinner at that exact beefeater.
Love blackpool go every year for the lights
YES you guys are in Blackpool I'm so happy because I live right near Blackpool 💖
To be fair to Anna, I'm useless with coats too. Unless it's actually raining as I leave the house, I won't remember my coat, no matter what the forecast is. :p
He looked so happy!
Take him to coral island along the seafront it’s an awesome arcade he’d love it
You should see if Andy would like the water park because my brother is also autistic and he loves them
I’ve been to that hotel 😂
I love all your vlogs Andy is amazing
Well done Premier Inn! 👍
I saw you in blackpool near the tower
Hope you guys had lots fun

Amazing good video
Great vlog!

Woah that is right near my school!
Kev what hair product do you use????
Andrzww • WhAtS sAwCoN
It's hair putty. I think. I can't remember what it's called!
What a lad
Bad memory of that premier inn, is it close to Wigan? We went to a hotel in Black pool, that was SHOCKING, so we went round black pool all night and could find one, we then drove 2 hours to a premier in near Wigan, was the worst night ever.
What are you guys going to do when Andy starts getting facial hair ? X
I’ve got high functioning autism and i go to school 50 purcent of the time.
Love that intro mate
