    That was lovely Dom. Never worry about doing something a bit different for the channel. We’re not all fixated with old bits of metal and welding 😂. It was great to see you both enjoying the show.

    An enjoyable combination artistry, craftmanship, natures beauty and.....a generous pinch of societal pretense.

    I could watch the stone mason all day, he was brilliant. Not easy being someone to life out of a block of stone, would loved to have seen the final piece. Glad you met your icon, not many of us get a chance.

    Envious, jealous, I have been just once, but it wasn't me! My sister is a member and I went as her husband and just to complicate it my wife went as my sister. What a lovely day we had and must go again. Great youtube video, thanks for the pleasant commentary.

    After watching Chelsea on TV all the week you succeeded in showing so many incredibly interesting things that the BBC missed! Thank you!

    Thank you for showing the real Chelsea Flower Show, your coverage was in many respects better than that of the BBC.

    That was lovely Dom, thank you. Lovely seeing Will. It is great to see another side of the Flower Show. It all looks so crowded when shown on the Beeb, your video looked so much better, thanks again.

    I enjoyed that! Nice to see a side of the show thats not all about the flowers, nice balance.

    A beautiful video! Loved the copper art ! And the marble artisan also. I would love to see that garden experience but I will have to get a passport for England 😭. My ID pass isn't enough anymore...

    Well I loved it Dom. Never been to the Chelsea Flower show only seen the BBC highlights of it. Yours was more interesting and a nice break away from, 'Rusty bits of metal'. Thanks Dom

    That was a surprise, there really was a lot to see other than flowers. That coppper settee looked like it was made of leather. Very interesting to see the stone being worked with a very good and detailed explanation of the tools used. Well done and good luck from Spain!!

    Just one word - excellent!
    While I'm here, I just viewed the video where you mentioned the Austin pedal car you restored. I'd seen a tantalising view of it in TRS intros . Out of the many TRS jobs you've done, this was by far the best. Glad you really enjoyed it too.

    @leslieaustin151 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just as good as ever! But no engineering? A Morry Minor Van, all that copper-work, and the tungsten tools of the stone-mason? Plenty of engineering to my eyes! Loved it Dom. And Will making a special appearance too! Great!

    That was a rather lovely break from the norm. I genuinely don’t know how I’d react if I met Monty. I don’t get star struck very easily but I think I probably would in that circumstance.
