    Watching 3 years later and really enjoyed hearing about your life Caroline. I’ve been a subscriber about a year now and do enjoy all vlogs.
    I’m a 58 year old plus size mom of 2 boys in their 20s. One graduated and now living & working in London, one in his final year at University and we live in the West Midlands but have holidayed in Devon & Cornwall for over 20 years exploring different areas. X

    What a great inside view into the life of my favorite celebrity!! How I enjoy your content and how you present yourself. I giggle, laugh, sigh and moan as you present your take on makeup, clothes, and your life. You are a charmer that’s for sure. 🙏

    Caroline I was born in 69 and many aspects of your life are so similar to mine. I've just commented on your Cruise Liner video, Same, I sailed out of New York in 1989 on Sky Princess 6mth contract. Missing my 1st love, I returned hone in 1990 and brought him presents and it was clear he didn't want us to be back together. I too can still remember the conversation and I can honestly say I cried every day after for 2 years. it was the most awful awful time in my life and as you say even just thinking about it 30yrs later still brings back all those feelings! There are certain songs I cant listen to..I was truly heartbroken and with everything else I went though I honestly believe I suffered with a kind of PTSD as I became very depressed and introverted. I am a true empath and introvert it has definitely shaped me as a person. I am tearful typing this as it all comes whooshing back. So glad to have found you my dear. Julie x

    Thank you Caroline. That was lovely and I really enjoyed it. Very honest content. I seem to remember when you did House tour you told about how you had to wait for completion as the owners were ill or something weren't they? I did personally find you first with the reselling but I always love your vlogs and ramblings. Thanks for sharing your story. X

    • @CarolineMrsM
      @CarolineMrsM  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

I met my husband and never persued it ~ huge mistake and one that I've regretted all my life. If only ..... Thanks for sharing, it's nice to know a bit more about you xx

  • @TheHikercrone
    @TheHikercrone 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's been really nice to hear your story; it must seem odd to not know much about your viewers - I happened to be over in England for the first time when you got married, driving all over the place. My husband & I came over again in 1999, to drive all over & up into Scotland for about 6 weeks (we got married on the Isle of Mull, not Gretna Green - lol). I learned to drive in a right hand steering MG Midget, so driving on the other side of the road comes naturally for me. I sure get the attachment to a parental home; my Dad just passed last Sept and we decided to live in his home until I could get to a place I could let it go (not yet); my folks bought it in 1982, so a lot of history in these walls :)

    • @CarolineMrsM
      @CarolineMrsM  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think it's nice you live in your Dad's home, Heather, a good way to come to terms with him no longer being with you and to reach a point where you're comfortable to let go. And yes, the 'relationship' with viewers is a weird one way road that I've talked to other you tubers about quite a lot - people feel they know us and yet we know nothing at all about them. Strange really! :)

  • @alievans7988

    This came up as a recommendation so I clicked on it, very glad I did, feel like I know you a little better now 😊 I always wonder when I see things pre 2020 how we would feel if we knew what was coming up. Very interesting Caroline, thank you for sharing ❤ x

    Great video Caroline - always nice to know someones background! Agree with Sue's Piles of Shame - I came across you through reselling vlogs but then really enjoyed your "ramblings". There aren't many ladies of a "certain age" (although I am slightly older than you!) out there doing those types of videos.

    • @CarolineMrsM
      @CarolineMrsM  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, Cathy. I think a lot of people came via reselling and it's always nice to know that people enjoy this more lifestyle-y content as well as the reselling :)

    Thanks Caroline. What an interesting video. It got me thinking about how to surmise ones own life in 30 minutes or so and what bits 'make the cut' and what bits don't
    Also - you have a very house, you should show us round one day, is it art deco-y? It always looks so light in there

My mum was an only child, too, and I know she felt a great sense of having sole responsibility as her own mother aged, so it is a concern, but I guess that the thing is that none of us know what the future holds, so no point worrying too much (fine advice which I will be hopeless at taking - I'm the world's biggest worrier!)
