    It's great to see even more of Confolens, and props to you for you music selection the last couple of videos. I like all of the music you use, but the music for the Chateau visit and Confolens was spot on, it set the mood perfectly. Then transitioning to Better late than never was a perfect song as well. You are getting pretty damn good with your editing and framing of your shots. You might make a Content Creator yet. I kid, just admiring how much you have progressed in the past year or so. I can't even express how touching it was was to see how over joyed Rosie was to see George. How long has it been since they had seen each other? What a great surprise. Well done all around. Laterz!

      Hi Rob, ive done some digging around and asking a few sites about the bike. You needed to put it on the 10070*30 when declared your stuff you brought with you to france. Apparently then it would have been ok to bring with u if its a permanent move. Have you changed ur reg plate to a french one??

      @@darrenwardle8828 I sold it mate. It was on finance and would have been a nightmare to have finance on a bike whilst living abroad on a new plate. Sold it, settled the finance that hurt real bad. Bought the new MT10 outright in France, so its all French registered and legal :)
