So glad to have you back, hope Colin is getting better:) the stories you find and tell are so fascinating and you can tell them in such a way - “sprinkled” with Shaun’s little comments-, that they are just perfect, thank you both as always;)
Hi guys!! Loved seeing your vlog. I could just hear Loyd Grossman saying 'hoo lives in a house like this?' It's got to be little Jimmy Krankie! Stay well and keep warm. Lots of love xxxx
My husband and I just drove the North Coast 500 in September. We had lunch at that same cafe in Lairg on our way from Tongue to Kinlochbervie (some of the prettiest views on the drive)! It was a gorgeous, clear day, and we sat outside at one of the picnic tables enjoying a view of the loch. How lovely to see the loch and cafe on your video. I look forward to the day when we might visit in person again.
So chuffed I am so early to the comments! This tale had me grinning the entire time. Such a Scottish thing to do. Kudos to the local community for keeping this bit of ‘local lore’ going. Made me want to go back to visit Scotland even more, if that’s possible! ATB to you both, and Otis too! ❤
Nobody can spin a yarn like the Scots! I have Scottish ancestry, and I married a Scotsman. The BBC must have 'wee een' to have missed this! Greetings from Highland, MI, USA. Oh, and wee een means 'small eyes' .
Not sure which I loved more about this vid--a glimpse of the wee hoose or your accents. I could listen to y'all talk about even boring stuff all day 😊👍
Born in Glasgow raised in California it takes my heart home again. I hear my parents who were always surprised when asked where their accents were from. They'd say, what accents are ye speaken of?
My first language is Frisian, I was born in Northern Holland.. the way you pronounce "brown" and also "house' sounds just the way we do!..love it!!!! I
My father crossing the Rhine into Germany in WW2 was taken in by a butcher. He told the man ye speak broad Scotch well. The man replied I thought ye were speaking German.
I grew up there! I was actually one of the two the 'Lairg gala princesses' on the float in 1999! I saw the broon's house and though it wasn't the broons house I knew (I mainly remember house 2) I recognised the little island and tree immediately! I actually found an adder/diamondback skin on the little jetty (which I assume you're standing on?) when I was 6 and I treasured that for years
Visited the Falls of Shin on my first coach tour to Scotland unfortunately I took it literally by falling and badly bruising my shoulder. We actually saw the wee house and the driver said an MP was claiming it as a second home
So happy you are back!!! So enjoy all the stories, stories you would not necessarily hear about while traveling the area. Thank you 🙏 have a lovely weekend cheers
You are a gifted story teller, Colin. You could go into real estate and sell that wee hoose for aboot a thoosand poonds. ☺️ Great to see you both again. Give my regards to Otis, the birds, and the beeeees!
Nicely done! I really love history stories that aren't history at all. I guess the BBC needs to check their sources a bit better. Good to see you both looking well! Best wishes from Central Michigan!
Glad to see you both back on Friday at 4:00pm Colin and Shaun I know who lives in the little house Colin I think I must be the home of the little people or maybe Noddy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The story was already funny but you delived it so smooth.. I really believed you were narrating factual history of that place. You put a big smile on me, ty!
So very happy u guys are back!! I hope u are okay now& dont have to go back to the hospital etc. I cross the fingers its all behind you now! Great video! I totally fell for that story, hook, line & sinker. I figured his family inherited the "hoose" & eventually just updated it, to withstand the weather... but nooooo .. it was all just a big fat whopper of a story! Hahaha. That was amazing. The food, u guys deffo earned looked very yummy. Hows the homestead? Hows the animals? Any updates on the train-shed yet? Cant wait for next weeks! Til then :)
Thank goodness you’re back we missed you last week. Hope you’re feeling better Colin. Great to see the glorious scenery and get a good story even if it was made up 🤣. Lunch looked yummy 😋.
Now I know you two gentlemen can't hear your own accent, but it's lovely. Thank you also for sharing this entertaining little story, and I'm glad you had a nice lunch after.
Thank you for the insight into The Little Hoose. Love the stories you dig up Colin. Do hope your health is OK at the moment. Kidney stones are a very painful ailment. You poor thing have suffered. Lucky to have Shaun by your side. Cheers to you both from New Zealand.
New sub here, this was so funny! You 2 gentleman are a hoot with your story about the " wee hoose"(kinda rhymes), and how the BBC fell for it, this made my Saturday, hello from Orange County, CA 🤗👋🏠
Great story Boys, keep them coming. Colin my favourite session was back on May 30, 2018. Autism and Me - Starting a new life on a boat to save my mental health from Asperger's. meant a lot to me and good to hear someone else talking about mental health. Thank You
Good morning from NZ. Colin, we hang off your every word. We love how you love history. How cute is that wee hoose ? Hope your health is improving. We love you too Shawn. Hugs from over here.❤🙏👍😀😀
Hi Coli and Shaun, funny story. I wondered about the TV aerial , I thought maybe the towns folk had been updating the wee house 🤦🏽♀️. Hope you are on the mend Colin . You and Shaun have been through a lot this year. Sending positive thoughts and prayers.
We used to live on the Loch shin just around the corner from the little house nice to see you doing a bit of information on it And making it enjoyable as well keep the good work up cheers
Thanks Guys, for a great 'factual' vlog. I think the BBC shot their self in the foot, lol. Brilliant stuff as always and more hilarious out takes. It's great to see that you are both doing well and cheering me up. Take care and all the best. Stevie
I passed this wee hoose all the time and never heard the Broon story, now I have I wish you two hadn't burst the bubble. Next time I will be sure to only watch the first half of your videos to avoid the spoilers! Cracking video chaps, glad I stumbled upon your channel 👍
glad to see you a bit better, Colin, was thinking "is that cafe where you posted that pic of Shaun on social media" and it was :) looks like a good grub up, that. BTW stories like that are why I love history, and local history :) people have been doing it for years. I once came across a story of a huggggggggge battle that took place and when I dug into it, turned out it was nothing of the sort, just a minor skirmish that had been, um, exaggerated. People like to make themselves feel important and part of big events. In that respect, human nature hasn't changed - and historians of all stripes have to be alive to this! :)
I just re-watched an older episode, from about 2 years ago, the one where Otis first discovered bunched of leafs on the ground.. U guys mentioned it being ur 28th Anniversary... which means u guys are close to or just passed ur 30th!!!! Holy c...!!!! Amazing u guys!! Well congrats. I hope u had an amazing getaway or celebrated just the way u guys love!!! If it hasnt passed yet.. well.. then.. I hope u guys share some of ur celebration with us :)
Just saw your twitter post. What a huge smile! So happy to hear the stone is out. You guys are champs. Wishing you a quick recovery. You both deserve all the cakes. 😀
Brilliant I love a great historical story. I live in Lincolnshire and have many a national trust property with some great stories of before years that I absolutely definitely without a doubt believe 👍👍👍👍
😂 Love it! I wish it were a true story. 🙌🏼 Your lunch looked very tasty. Take care, be well, until we visit with you next time ~ Hugs from Mike, Lacy & Hamish 🐾🇺🇸🇬🇧
I'm a wee lad. Can I live in the wee hoose? Please. I can be Jock Broon. Would it be alright if Jock has an American accent?
😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
This is the best story I've heard in a while! Too funny how the BBC fell for it. 😂 ♥
So glad to have you back, hope Colin is getting better:) the stories you find and tell are so fascinating and you can tell them in such a way - “sprinkled” with Shaun’s little comments-, that they are just perfect, thank you both as always;)
Have you heard of the Save Soil movement before? It could help to have beautiful places like Lairg 🌿🌿🌿
I always love your outtakes but they also show just how much time and effort you put into making these lovely vlogs ❤
Just want to say Thank you! 😍💝💝
The meal at the end of the video made me jealous! I bet that cured the chills.
Hi guys!! Loved seeing your vlog. I could just hear Loyd Grossman saying 'hoo lives in a house like this?' It's got to be little Jimmy Krankie!
Stay well and keep warm. Lots of love xxxx

What a brilliant story about the wee hoose, clever good that the BBC fell for it. xx enjoyed the vlog it's always fun watching you Colin and Shawn. xx
This is my exact favourite kind of shenanigans. Good fun that hurts no one but when you catch someone up with it and can have a good laugh.
So chuffed I am so early to the comments! This tale had me grinning the entire time. Such a Scottish thing to do. Kudos to the local community for keeping this bit of ‘local lore’ going. Made me want to go back to visit Scotland even more, if that’s possible!

Who doesn't love a good story sitting by the fireplace in the pub on a windy autumn evening, have a good weekend!

Guys your stories are getting better and better ❤So captivating
Guys - I may have said it before, but you really do brighten up my gloomiest of days!
Thank you! Love you both! xx
Omg, I love you two. You make me want to pick up and move to Scotland. ❤️ Sending a donation so your next lunch is on me. Stay warm and happy!
Aww, thank you so much! x
You are so very welcome. You both make my day happier. Hugs to you both.
Shaun, you almost took an eye out along with the burger!!!! Careful lad. Loved it, as always. Thanks for sharing.
It’s so hard to believe my ancestors had this accent. Me being from Texas and all! Love it!
Where are your ancestors from
What a cheeky wee story! Love it. Thanks for sharing
Hi Guys, missed you last week, glad your back. Really enjoyed your blog this week. Take care, stay safe and well. With best regards Derek.
Glad to see you two out and about . Love your stories and Avengers. Culin hope you are feeling better now.
I grew up there! I was actually one of the two the 'Lairg gala princesses' on the float in 1999!
I saw the broon's house and though it wasn't the broons house I knew (I mainly remember house 2) I recognised the little island and tree immediately!
I actually found an adder/diamondback skin on the little jetty (which I assume you're standing on?) when I was 6 and I treasured that for years
I respect the tenacity of them building replacements as needed and continuing the story!
Enjoyed your vlog today. Love your choice of bagpipe music, one of my favorites. Keep smiling, hope you’re feeling better Colin❤
That was a great little story. I thought a little person lived in the house. Thanks again for video. take care and God bless.
I am Scottish, than you for this video, in these troubled times we need to have a good laugh, Welcome to Scotland.
Visited the Falls of Shin on my first coach tour to Scotland unfortunately I took it literally by falling and badly bruising my shoulder. We actually saw the wee house and the driver said an MP was claiming it as a second home

Wee hoose, little is a lovely word but doesn't go with the our Scottish vernacular of hoose lol 😂 love from Scotland
it looks like it would be a nice duck house
Love it there. Used to stay with friends in Bonar Bridge. And been to Shin Falls many times. Beautiful part of the country. Making me home sick.
Omg what a lovely duo, lol. Love these guys. First time viewer, from the U.S. (Ohio). :)
Thank you and welcome!
