Many parallels with mine Andrew. Dividing my time up between some teaching work, a bit of physio, I'm 70 with a few old injuries haunting me, personal interests, domestic chores and quality time with my 16 year old black and white foxy who bears an uncanny resemblance to Dougal with flecks and spots but a little more black on him like Ted. He gets a run on the beach most days or up the river and along bush tracks. He pesters me if he thinks he might miss out. ( he never does.) The Outer Hebrides looks like a great place to live. Keep well.
Really enjoyed your video! Would love to get your recipes for pasta goo and your tea bread! I think I can rewind and get all the other nutritional additions you added to breakfast and snacks. Thank you again for sharing a normal day in your life! Oh, forgot the soup! Would love your recipe for your lentil soup!
Gosh I did enjoy that , nothing boring about your life Mr , D. , you're a busy man , keep off the statins, and B/P tablets , road to no town , great diet, I've just spent past few weeks getting off strong medication I've been on for 4 yrs for Polymyalgia, not easy but getting there , Morphine has been the worst !!! Great vlog , well done , great place to live and work , I was exhausted by lunchtime , great to be fit, and healthy , loved the suitcase train you had before , clever people ,very talented !! Hugs
Apart from the wonderful beaches your typical day reassuringly sounds a lot like mine! Since I retired I find I still don’t have time to do all I’d like as domestic chores and gardening take most of my time. I don’t know how I survived when I worked 50 hours a week.
The Kent and Sussex Tea Company is my fav tea supplier too. Shame they no longer ship to the EU though. I have to pickup my supply when I visit the UK.
It's, not playing with trains it's testing 😂Ohhh Dougal was looking into the camara i am sure he was thinking about smiling but he held it in i could tell 😂
Good to hear a Plug for a Local (to me) Company. I live about 1 mile from Pluckley Tea. It's great living here too. Never been to the Scottish Islands unfortunately. At 80, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it now. Cheers to you and the Dogs.
Thank you for sharing Andrew. I find your videos so calming and restful. You live in a beautiful place with your dogs and you are totally in charge of your life. May it continue my friend.
Thank you Andrew for making such a high quality and life affirming vlog. Came across this by pure accident and so glad I watched it. You have two amazing, healthy and happy dogs there, my own 6 year old Jack Russell (Harry) actually sat on my knee and watched it, we watch one video together a day, he kept looking at me, I know what he was thinking, 'that look's lovely....let's go!' Always intended to come up to Scotland for a few weeks when I retire (I work from home). I just want somewhere, perhaps a little cottage, where there will be plenty of chance to just walk, walk and walk.
Thanks Andrew, that was really good and interesting insight to your life. Although Dougal did look as though he almost smiled in the closing moments of the video😂. Best wishes Paul & Sarah
Thank you for sharing a day in your life. Loved Dougal “The Blanket Monster” and Ted was so cute running back to you on the beach. Absolutely stunning scenery.
Fab! I wouldn't mind you teaching us how to make tea bread, also there is a family company in NI called British supplements, you might like to check them out. They have no 'nasties in' and I take their vit D with K2 supplement which is really good. Those dear dear dogs, such a blessing. Thanks for the video!
You have chosen such a beautiful place to live and share your time with your pups. Thank you for taking us along on a typical day. Very lucky with the wonderful winter sunshine 😃 Safe travels, Trev n Sue
Happy to see your settled in Scotland in your lovely home...after those years of shift work you deserve it...would love to see how your day is when it's blowing a gale and raining buckets out side.♥️🇳🇿
Really enjoyed the day in your life Andrew. Video camera work was brilliant! A peaceful and tranquil life for the 3 of you and very very cosy! Enjoyed every minute x
I’m impressed with how well Ted has learned to fit into your & Dougal’s life. And I’m so glad you’ve found a diet that helps you control your health issues, something I try to do each day as well. Look forward to each upload!
Hi Andrew, Always look forward to watching Your Videos!! so enjoyed spending the Day with You,Dougal & Ted. Wow!! I'd love to be at the Beach, were You live is so Stunning & Good for the Mind,Body & Soul!!! I'm going to try out the Porridge with Banana & Peanut Butter etc. It looked Lovely! Thank You for Sharing, Take Care, Lots of Love to You, Dougal & Ted. 💖💖💖💜💜💜 XXXX
Thank you so much, Andrew, for that video - I loved it! Ted is an absolute darling and I'm so impressed how you are managing Dougal as top dog. You live in such an exceptionally beautiful place and I thank you for sharing the beaches with us - it was a treat.
At about 10:45 it looks like you have 4 separate drives, I assume for additional storage. Have you considered a NAS? They give you wired or wireless network access to all the data, with redundancy. I use a 5 bay Synology with 4 functional drives and one spare (which I’ve not needed yet), yielding a 43TB redundant storage. Loose a drive, no data lost.
Yes they are, but I archive everything twice in case of failure (which one of these has). I have no idea what you are talking about after the first sentence Erin! ;@)
@@andrewjditton - LOL! NAS = Network Attached Storage. It is a series of raid drives with software to streamline and make maintenance, redundancy, and data integrity. They are a simple, cost effective way to store data. Your drives are either mirrored (writes to both simultaneously) or you do that manually. Let’s assume each of your drives are 4 TB, so mirrored two drives are still just 4 TB, the other pair also the same would equal 8 TB, but you’re using 16 GB of drives. With a NAS, you only lose 1 drives capacity, so your total storage would jump from 8 to 12 TB. Lose a drive, pop a new one in (assuming you don’t have a hot spare) and it automatically rebuilds the data. They are relatively cheap, I bought mine for $300 USD used. And put in 5 12 TB drives, one is a hot spare, the other 4 provide under 48 TB of space, which I split between my systems (less the drives system files)
That was lovely, Andrew. My day is similar to yours. I don't have an alarm clock. I have a first mug of coffee and take it back to bed. I spend the morning on the computer. I cook from scratch. No dogs here, but four cats that need attention. Let me know the date you will be at NYM Railway, please. ilona
Maybe you mentioned it in one of the older videos: But you don't sound very Scottish! at all! :) You created yourself a good way of life, thx for sharing! Greetings from Germany, back in Scotland by April, hopefully! :)
Another nice wee video Andrew. Couldn't help but notice the bottle of downpour gin by the cooker. Is this for decorative purposes or is that helping the porridge slip down. 🤣🤣 We purchased a bottle from Bernaray last summer but haven't opened it yet. Still working through the Harris gin.
Wonderful video! Love how the pups have such a supportive and loving home! Dougel (sp? ) looks as if he has much energy now and moves great! And Ted is really growing up and maturing! My blue healer suffered an intentional neurotoxin exposure, so her capacity to move was reduced. But she is slowly recovering. I tried many things but diet has made the most difference! I love diet as medicine! You have found a good place to thrive! Best to all of you including the sweet guardians (dogs) which travel your path with you!
Forgot to mention- one very helpful addition to my pubs healing diet and my own, has been making a special wheatgrass juice. You can grow the wheatgrass in the kitchen. it’s beautiful. Then clip 2/3 cup, but in blender with 1/2 apple, and cover 2/3 with natural spring water. Blend, and push through a tea strainer to a tract the juice. I add some organic chicken or miso broth for my pup. And a tsp of organic coconut oil. She loves it. And it restores the mitochondria. So it is amazing. Energy abounds! For myself, I leave out the broth, and add a squeeze of lemon. tastes wonderful!
Andrew that place looks idilic. I would live to live there. How do you manage with the lack of day light in the winter months? Those beaches are surreal and heavenly. Dougle and Ted are beautiful 😍
Thanks you for your insight into a day in your life. We loved the routine and simplicity of your day. Living a hectic life I would love to have the peace and rhythm you have in yours. Thank you for sharing that video it was really enjoyable and encouraging.
A lovely day in your life, I think you sleep well because sweet Dougal is on your bed. My Coco sleeps on my bed and is a great comfort to me. Love to all 3 of you. ❤❤❤
Do you see the northern lights sometimes? As we are supposed to be able to see them tonight. I'm in Leeds so if they happen it's very rare we can ever see them.
I can't start my work from home day without: 1)short workout; 2)short run; 3)17 yr old senior dog walk w tumbler of coffee/tea and a pocket full of poopie bags
First time watching your videos as this just popped up in my feed. Really enjoyed following your day.! Puppy Ted is a little sweetheart. I’d love to see more about the food you’ve prepared. Recipes for tea bread and pasta goo sauce please?
A great life for dogs. It is natural for puppies to sleep with mother, siblings, or human/ dog family. The small plastic crate is for cat transportation. Leave the cat crate door open at night.
Lovely video again Andrew, any chance you could maybe do a video on your recipes please, this is my cup of tea, inspired me to have a lifestyle change thank you ❤
Thank you for the glimpse into your average day and for sharing some details regarding your health. I too struggle with high blood pressure and wish I had a beach like that outside my house. Your lifestyle is better than any prescribed medication. Good luck and I’m looking forward to more upcoming videos 👍
Hari OM Well, the dugs maybe never smile, but now I am grinning from ear to ear! So much to enjoy here (and some shared approach to life and living). I adore fennel tea, BTW. May I ask, was that a 360' camera you were using with Ted and Dougal at the beach? Somehow it didn't seem like the drone... jus' wonderin'... YAM xx
I have had no alarm for years now. I cannot take the seeds you use - anaphylaxis! Found that out by accident, twice being sent as emergency to hospital - full paramedic, first responder, 10 leads attached stuff! Now I have to check everything I eat & have epipens to carry with me. Nice to sleep & rise in your own natural rhythm. Good to see the dogs running on the beach. Are they not supposed to wear a collar with contact details? I think your life is more exciting than mine though! Take care & thanks x
New subscriber here Andrew so hello👋I love Scotland wonderful previous holiday memories but never been here and it looks beautiful.I have a 1 year old cavachon who sleeps with me,such a comfort.I’m I’ll with Covid and this was a breathe of fresh air plus your soothing voice and stunning photography has eased my anxiety so thank you xx
ok try this again messed up the first message. Awesome loved the video it was smooth and easy to watch like a glass of fine wine. Loved how sweet you are to the dogs, lovely. Your average day is incredibly calm and refreshing in a world that seems crazy. Enjoy Mr. D. You do seem to have a real nack for videos. I would love to see more of the Hebrides, those out of the tourist areas. I may never get there your video gives me a feeling I've at least seen the area and its' beauty. Keep up the great videos and don't entertain the idea that many of us are not really enjoying them. All the best from Liebe(my Komondor) and me on, "The Rock", or better known as Newfoundland. Rockin it her blahahahahah
Wonderful video... loved it's simplicity and gentle pace. I've found you don't need background music, just the atmos. of the shot carries through so much more... Interesting about the 4K. Looked very impressive in certain shots. Particularly the beach.... loved it. Spectacular. Just wondering how large is a 4K edited file size? I haven't edited in 4K due to size concerns. Did you notice a difference in editing and encoding times? We met at last years camping show in Brum.... I live in the Midlands, freelance like you and love the flexibility our days bring us. We are very blessed. :-) Thank you for your considerate content and I loved the kisses you gave Douglas before turning out the light.
I couldn't do 4k on my 2016 Mac, it was too painful. I've just got the new MBP and with it have started 4k, and find it's quicker than the old Mac doing 1080p!
"stumbled" on you by accident Andrew and found your video absolutely delightful. It's been a long-held dream of mine, ever since reading The Sea for Breakfast - Lillian Beckwith, many decades ago. Dougal and Ted are such fun... what a great life they have. Look forward to the next video Andrew. Warm wishes from Australia.
At your and my age and done all the shift work. .we have got live going the way we want it. .good luck to you and keep doing what you like with good vlogs and travelling along the way. ..
Blissful, beautiful place. Perfection in our eyes. I thought you may be running all the way to the island, which is a long way! Eating the right food and looking after your gut health is key to your overall well-being and mental health, the difference is profound. Have you read Spoon Fed by Professor Tim Spector?
No I haven't. Is that a recommendation? I *do* make it to the island at full fitness (4 mile round trip) but still stopping at about 3/4 the way at the mo.
Wonderful video, Andrew. I'm catching up as I've been too busy to view my favorite YT channels as of late. I'm also frantically looking for that tea bread recipe in your newsletters. I'd love to make some as, like you, I tend to make things only sweetened with fruit and not refined sugars.
Very nice video, Andrew and have an unique view in your live...I do have quite the same pace in live as you do, together with my animals, live is good...Many regards to you, Dougal and Ted from a Dutchie who lives in Belgium, Harald
Hey Andrew--yay for listening to your physio!! That's a great group of ladies at OUAB (I'm up in Stornoway at the hospital). The only days I can do the no-alarm-clock thing is Disathairne agus Didomhnaich; otherwise it's up with the roosters for work!! Was wondering if you have tried Turmeric Golden Milk; supposed to be good for all that ails you. Love the vids with the pups!! Tapadh leibh!
I was so pleased to get the chance to speak to you Andrew at model rail scotland last Friday Myself and members from our model railway club visited from belfast . Love your new puppy Ted he's so cute good company for dougel and yourself keep those videos coming love watching your channel. David Belfast .
I showed this to my mum just now as she said it was the best thing she’d seen on tv for a long time… even brought a tear to her eye watching the dogs at the end … 😌😊🐶
Another superb relaxing video. It looks very isolated where you are and I'm sure the weather can be a lot worse than on the day you filmed. My wife and I have a static caravan in Cornwall as well as the Motorhome, since my early retirement I enjoy an equally relaxed lifestyle. I also have my three year old Labrador who I have been training as a working dog, not that we ever do any, but it does mean that I get much needed exercise and spend most days either on the coastal path or in the Cotswolds. The EV6 I ordered back in early February should be here in quarter 4, 2023 but I have asked for delivery in quarter 1/2024. Keep up the good work
I always love your doggy-run videos - such lovely scenery. And thank you for taking the time to make this peaceful video. Please give us your tea bread and lentil soup recipes!

Love it, but could you please keep it down? We can hear your music in Texas. 🤣🥰

Ah, the 'delights' of Brexit... Yes, they do do the best tea for a good price.
I feel so relaxed after watching this 🥰
Thanks for the video. I've just moved to Jura with my little dog, your start to the day and routines are very smiler to mine. Beautiful Scotland.
Thank you for sharing this with us 😍 it is so much fun to see you and the boys
It's, not playing with trains it's testing 😂Ohhh Dougal was looking into the camara i am sure he was thinking about smiling but he held it in i could tell 😂
Good to hear a Plug for a Local (to me) Company. I live about 1 mile from Pluckley Tea. It's great living here too. Never been to the Scottish Islands unfortunately. At 80, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it now. Cheers to you and the Dogs.
I know Pluckley (used to live in Ashford) and I'd be VERY happy to live there too! All the best.
Porridge made with flakes - yuk.
Thank you for sharing Andrew. I find your videos so calming and restful. You live in a beautiful place with your dogs and you are totally in charge of your life. May it continue my friend.
Could not agree more. Just want to add my thanks for sharing content that's always so enjoyable.
Many thanks Greg!
Thank you for sharing a day in the life ….. Dougal and Ted are gorgeous and so lucky to have a dad like you. ❤
You are so kind, thanks Lindsay :)
Isn’t it wonderful to see dogs running free and happy ❤
Thank you Andrew for making such a high quality and life affirming vlog. Came across this by pure accident and so glad I watched it.

THank you! I hope you get up here to at least visit soon.
The dogs look in their element together on the beach Andrew - so nice to see
You live in such a beautiful place Andrew! I know your weather can be a little harsh (!!!) at times but my goodness it makes up for it on other days!
Really nice area. A I get older I find I like crowded areas less and less...
Thanks Andrew, that was really good and interesting insight to your life. Although Dougal did look as though he almost smiled in the closing moments of the video😂. Best wishes Paul & Sarah
Such a lovely life, long may you live it. Great to see Douglas in such great spirits, and Ted learning from him. They are adorable. God bless.
Thank you for sharing a day in your life. Loved Dougal “The Blanket Monster” and Ted was so cute running back to you on the beach.
Absolutely stunning scenery.
Thanks for a look into your average day. As a recently retired person, I, too, relish all the days where I don’t have to set an alarm for the morning.
Can't get enough of Dougal & Ted, lovely dogs and so lucky to live by the sea and run free. What a beautiful place to live!!!
Thank you that I could join you for one day. It was like spending a day with a friend ❤️
Greetings from Germany and have a great time
David
Apart from living in a stunning location, I love how uncluttered your house is.
Thank you! 😊
Fab! I wouldn't mind you teaching us how to make tea bread, also there is a family company in NI called British supplements, you might like to check them out. They have no 'nasties in' and I take their vit D with K2 supplement which is really good. Those dear dear dogs, such a blessing. Thanks for the video!
Thank you Andrew for this enchanting vlog. Your boys are living the best life!
What a lovely video, Andrew. Thank you very much for sharing your day with us x

Hi Andrew - have you ever been to Islay? And if so, do you have a video about it? Your dogs are so cute!
Planning to this year, Holly! :)
Thanks for sharing your daily life. Nice to see your self care! It was fun to watch the pups romping on the beach. That Ted is growing!
Splendid, thank you Andrew, Dougal and Ted. Fantastic scenery and lovely to see your normal idyllic every day life, enjoy, take care of yourselves xx
And no need for a hot water bottle , with Dougal on the bed😄……👍👌🐶👍🇮🇲
Happy to see your settled in Scotland in your lovely home...after those years of shift work you deserve it...would love to see how your day is when it's blowing a gale and raining buckets out side.♥️🇳🇿

Glad you enjoyed it Deb, thank you!
Sorry Douglas I mentioned to say. Take care
An interesting video Andrew, these are the type of videos we would like to see more of please. 💙
Thoroughly enjoyed watching your day. Excitement is over rated, give me contentment any day.
Thank you for sharing about your blood pressure. I’ve just been told I have an issue and I took a lot of comfort from your comments.
Andrew, thank you for letting us have a glimpse into your life in Uist.
I’m impressed with how well Ted has learned to fit into your & Dougal’s life. And I’m so glad you’ve found a diet that helps you control your health issues, something I try to do each day as well. Look forward to each upload!
Brilliant! Cracking place to live,your dogs are just like mine,look very happy their,enjoying your films👍👍
Absolutely great video Andrew - thanks for sharing. I love your dogs and your diet!

Lovely video again Andrew, any chance you could maybe do a video on your recipes please, this is my cup of tea, inspired me to have a lifestyle change thank you ❤
I'll probably include the recipes in my newsletter Alan, cheers!
Andrew smooth rather than crunchy? Controversial! However won’t stop me enjoying another excellent video. You have a gift for communication.
Definitely smooth! Dissolves better in the porridge :)

I think your life is more exciting than mine though! Take care & thanks x
Bad news on the seeds! And this is Uist... everyone knows everyone elses dogs, and common sense rules :)
New subscriber here Andrew so hello👋I love Scotland wonderful previous holiday memories but never been here and it looks beautiful.I have a 1 year old cavachon who sleeps with me,such a comfort.I’m I’ll with Covid and this was a breathe of fresh air plus your soothing voice and stunning photography has eased my anxiety so thank you xx
Many thanks Jane.
ok try this again messed up the first message. Awesome loved the video it was smooth and easy to watch like a glass of fine wine. Loved how sweet you are to the dogs, lovely. Your average day is incredibly calm and refreshing in a world that seems crazy. Enjoy Mr. D. You do seem to have a real nack for videos. I would love to see more of the Hebrides, those out of the tourist areas. I may never get there your video gives me a feeling I've at least seen the area and its' beauty. Keep up the great videos and don't entertain the idea that many of us are not really enjoying them. All the best from Liebe(my Komondor) and me on, "The Rock", or better known as Newfoundland. Rockin it her blahahahahah
I did a few in 2020 during Lockdown Sharon, but maybe I'll do some more soon. All the best.
What a lovely day! You are truly blessed!
Big hugs from me, most enjoyable, keep the stress at bay.
Wonderful video... loved it's simplicity and gentle pace. I've found you don't need background music, just the atmos. of the shot carries through so much more... Interesting about the 4K. Looked very impressive in certain shots. Particularly the beach.... loved it. Spectacular. Just wondering how large is a 4K edited file size? I haven't edited in 4K due to size concerns. Did you notice a difference in editing and encoding times? We met at last years camping show in Brum.... I live in the Midlands, freelance like you and love the flexibility our days bring us. We are very blessed. :-) Thank you for your considerate content and I loved the kisses you gave Douglas before turning out the light.
I couldn't do 4k on my 2016 Mac, it was too painful. I've just got the new MBP and with it have started 4k, and find it's quicker than the old Mac doing 1080p!
"stumbled" on you by accident Andrew and found your video absolutely delightful. It's been a long-held dream of mine, ever since reading The Sea for Breakfast - Lillian Beckwith, many decades ago. Dougal and Ted are such fun... what a great life they have. Look forward to the next video Andrew. Warm wishes from Australia.
At your and my age and done all the shift work. .we have got live going the way we want it. .good luck to you and keep doing what you like with good vlogs and travelling along the way. ..
Cheers Alan!
Blissful, beautiful place. Perfection in our eyes. I thought you may be running all the way to the island, which is a long way! Eating the right food and looking after your gut health is key to your overall well-being and mental health, the difference is profound. Have you read Spoon Fed by Professor Tim Spector?
No I haven't. Is that a recommendation? I *do* make it to the island at full fitness (4 mile round trip) but still stopping at about 3/4 the way at the mo.
Hello Andrew, thank you for this very différent vidéo about your daily life👍
Have à good week and see you next sunday 😉
What a fab vlog those dogs are very lucky boys fantastic beach’s wonderful place x
Wonderful video, Andrew. I'm catching up as I've been too busy to view my favorite YT channels as of late. I'm also frantically looking for that tea bread recipe in your newsletters. I'd love to make some as, like you, I tend to make things only sweetened with fruit and not refined sugars.
Thanks! I'm way behind with newsletters but hope to rectify soon once the dust has settled from the move.
Lovely video thanks 🙏
Very nice video, Andrew and have an unique view in your live...I do have quite the same pace in live as you do, together with my animals, live is good...Many regards to you, Dougal and Ted from a Dutchie who lives in Belgium, Harald
Wonderful Andrew.
I do love your average day..❤ mine it sat in an office for 8 hours a day😪
Hi Andrew, lovely and informative , great scenery too, hope you catch the Northern Lights..
Yes! It's been an amazing week for it Paul.
What a lovely life, so relaxing, I love it.
We loved watching it, what a lovely life in a beautiful place❤
Thank you for sharing your day, it looks a lovely life ❤
Loved it:)
Great video
Hey Andrew--yay for listening to your physio!! That's a great group of ladies at OUAB (I'm up in Stornoway at the hospital). The only days I can do the no-alarm-clock thing is Disathairne agus Didomhnaich; otherwise it's up with the roosters for work!! Was wondering if you have tried Turmeric Golden Milk; supposed to be good for all that ails you. Love the vids with the pups!! Tapadh leibh!
Not tried it, but will look out for it! Mòran taing!
I was so pleased to get the chance to speak to you Andrew at model rail scotland last Friday
Myself and members from our model railway club visited from belfast .
Love your new puppy Ted he's so cute good company for dougel and yourself keep those videos coming love watching your channel. David Belfast .
Thanks for saying hello David! I hope you enjoyed the show. I did enjoy my weekend away. All the best.
I showed this to my mum just now as she said it was the best thing she’d seen on tv for a long time… even brought a tear to her eye watching the dogs at the end … 😌😊🐶
Thank you
Another superb relaxing video. It looks very isolated where you are and I'm sure the weather can be a lot worse than on the day you filmed. My wife and I have a static caravan in Cornwall as well as the Motorhome, since my early retirement I enjoy an equally relaxed lifestyle. I also have my three year old Labrador who I have been training as a working dog, not that we ever do any, but it does mean that I get much needed exercise and spend most days either on the coastal path or in the Cotswolds. The EV6 I ordered back in early February should be here in quarter 4, 2023 but I have asked for delivery in quarter 1/2024. Keep up the good work
I always love your doggy-run videos - such lovely scenery. And thank you for taking the time to make this peaceful video. Please give us your tea bread and lentil soup recipes!
Will do in my newsletter soon - link in description :)
