00:00Yo, Otty come and take a look at this.

00:17Oh, look at that.

00:18Don't drop me in.

00:19I might drop you in, don't you worry.

00:20Let me do your little goat up.

00:21Good morning, good morning.

00:34How are we?

00:35Hope you're doing good.

00:36Hope you're well.

00:37Look, he's just arrived.

00:38Look, he's over there.

00:40Another day, another vlog.

00:41You join me on a very chilled, very lovely Sunday.

00:45We've just driven somewhere that if you've been watching the vlogs for a while, you will

00:47definitely recognise.

00:48We're currently in the little town, village, town probably of Lewes.

00:53It's such a picturesque little place.

00:55So many lovely little shops, lovely weather.

00:58Just getting out the car now.

00:59Bob and Sean and Dottie are meeting us as well.

01:01Just having a little chill, relaxed day, you know.

01:05I say chill, relaxed, there's now three children between us.

01:09So I don't know how chill and relaxed it's going to be rather than just nonstop running

01:12around parenting whilst trying to chill and trying to relax and trying to shop and trying

01:16to get good coffee and trying to eat.

01:18But that's the plan.

01:19That is the plan for today.

01:20Brought a rucksack with me.

01:22I don't think I've worn a rucksack for like six months.

01:26I feel like I've-

01:27I thought you were going to say six years.

01:29No.

01:30Well, I used to wear it every single day.

01:32I feel like I'm going back to school.

01:34I feel like I've got all my belongings and I'm off to class.

01:38Have we got everything out of the car we need?

01:40Parent life.

01:41This is one of the best things.

01:43If you've got two little ones that you can buy.

01:46How much do you love this, Oddie?

01:47So much.

01:48I just want to go on that.

01:50There you go.

01:51You go on that.

01:54Now I can chase you, Shaunie.

01:56There we go.

01:57Poppy just uploaded her first video back.

01:59I've uploaded this morning.

02:00Cool.

02:01Double upload.

02:02I'm uploading later.

02:03You're uploading later.

02:04That's just what we do.

02:05God.

02:06Shaun, when are you uploading?

02:07Next year.

02:08Yeah, sure.

02:09Next year.

02:10What?

02:112026.

02:12Got a bit too carried away with the filming that I nearly forgot to pay for parking.

02:17You might remember the last time we came to Lewis, which was probably three months ago,

02:29four months ago, we came across coffee and pastries.

02:33I mean, just keeping it simple, just letting everyone know what they do, which is this

02:36shop here.

02:37And they just do, you guessed it, the most amazing pastries.

02:41And I don't think I've actually had one of their coffees, but probably good coffee too.

02:44What are you saying?

02:45I've got my eye on like three things already.

02:49Cheese straws are like my thing.

02:50And that's like the biggest cheese straws I have.

02:51That is a chunky cheese straw.

02:52Zoe can't make her mind up, so she's gone back outside to get a second angle.

03:08Here you go.

03:09You take that.

03:10We went in pretty hard on the options.

03:13Oh no, you dropped your cheese straw.

03:20Whoa.

03:21That is a big cheese straw.

03:26Should we have a look over here?

03:33I saw it.

03:34I saw it.

03:35All right then.

03:36Perfect.

03:37Done.

03:38You've seen it.

03:39Otty, which half is mummy and which half is daddy?

03:40Daddy.

03:41Daddy's the right side.

03:42Mummy's the left side.

03:43Yes.

03:44Surely.

03:45Because Otty's half mummy and half daddy.

03:46She's taking it very seriously.

03:47Daddy.

03:48Daddy.

03:49Daddy.

03:50Daddy.

03:51Daddy.

03:52Daddy.

03:53Daddy.

03:54Daddy.

03:55Daddy.

03:56Daddy.

03:57Daddy.

03:58Daddy.

03:59Daddy.

04:00Daddy.

04:01Daddy.

04:02She's taking it very literally.

04:03Daddy.

04:04And thinks that one half of her is mummy and one half's daddy.

04:05Can I have a little bit too?

04:06Because I'm your auntie.

04:07Yeah, there's a problem.

04:08A little bit of puppy.

04:09I'll have an eyebrow.

04:10Everyone does say you look like auntie puppy.

04:11Otty, what do you want to buy?

04:12For you guys.

04:13Who for?

04:14For you.

04:15Yeah.

04:16Oh no, for Dottie.

04:17No.

04:18Let's buy one for Dottie.

04:19No, Otty's going to get one.

04:20Uncle Sean's going to buy it for us.

04:21No, we'll buy it for Dottie.

04:22No.

04:23But we're going to get these books, aren't we?

04:46Shaun wants a new pair of headphones.

04:48Shaun's cheating life.

04:52I'm pushing a limousine up this hill now.

04:55And Shaun has got a tiny little baby with the electric pushchair.

05:00No, it's pulling me up the hill.

05:01Look at it.

05:16For Mummy.

05:17It's nearly her birthday.

05:18Oh, you want to buy that for Mummy's birthday?

05:19Oh, it's so kind.

05:20Are you sure?

05:21I haven't got any money.

05:22Well, how are you going to pay?

05:23I need that any money.

05:24Can you go through the little door?

05:25I need that one.

05:26Try and go through the little special door.

05:27It's a magic door.

05:28Oh my God.

05:29If you go through it, you turn into Elsa.

05:30Can you even see in here?

05:31Yeah.

05:32Oh my God.

05:33Oh my God.

05:34Oh my God.

05:35Oh my God.

05:36Oh my God.

05:37Oh my God.

05:38Oh my God.

05:39Oh my God.

05:40Oh my God.

05:41Oh my God.

05:42Oh my God.

05:43Oh my God.

05:44Oh my God.

05:45Can you even see anything with your hat like that?

05:47No.

05:48Bob, there we go.

05:49Oh, yeah.

05:50Er, do you know who I am?

05:51Who are you?

05:52I'm Mr. Potts.

05:53You're Mr. Potts?

05:54What?

05:55Oh, you're Dip Van Dyke.

05:56You're Dip Van Dyke.

05:57What?

05:58I know, I've lost Otty.

05:59Otty?

06:00Otty?

06:01Yeah?

06:02Oh, Mummy.

06:03I've got some bad news.

06:04I've lost my daughter.

06:05Where's Otty?

06:06She's gone.

06:07Oh, my God.

06:08Oh, my God.

06:09Oh, my God.

06:10Oh, my God.

06:11Oh, my God.

06:12Oh, my God.

06:13Oh, my God.

06:14Where's Otty?

06:15Otty?

06:16Where are you?

06:17Where are you?

06:18Here we are.

06:19Where?

06:20Here, look.

06:21Oh, hello, mate.

06:22Ready?

06:23Is that funny?

06:24Here we go.

06:25Flint Owl.

06:26Is that funny?

06:41Here we go. Flint Owl.

06:52There's a sun out like this, it literally feels like summer is here.

06:56Look at this view, and this is just at the car park, there's just people casually kayaking

07:03along the river.

07:04I feel like it's all I'm saying in the vlogs at the moment, but I'm going to say it again,

07:08I just cannot wait for the summer vlogs, it is going to be so good.

07:12See you later!

07:14Bye guys!

07:23See I'm on them?

07:24Firstly, close that door, if a red one comes through.

07:28And it sees my blueberries.

07:30Hopefully not.

07:31Close that door.

07:32Put that on that table?

07:33Yeah, you can put it on the table if you want.

07:35Yeah, let's put your little blueberries on there.

07:38Pop your ice lolly up there and my coffee up there.

07:41we go. Right. Let me just. You holding it? You want to put it over here? Yeah. So I've

07:50still got a couple of jobs left to do, Ottie, on the vegetable patch. One of them is to

07:55put all of these around the tops of each of the vegetable beds. That's what I'm going

08:01to try and do now. Oh, do you know what I forgot? What? We got new pillows for these

08:05chairs, didn't we? They're really nice as well. I forgot to bring them outside. We'll

08:11do that tomorrow. So you might've remembered, not in the last vlog, but the previous vlog,

08:17I showed the like tester vegetable bed with this, that I put around the top. That is technically

08:24a car door sealant that I bought online, which basically the aim for me buying this was to

08:31try and, let me show you, to try and basically smoothen out the top of these rims. Cause

08:37they're really thin. So like with the girls leaning on them, I just thought it's not the

08:40most comfortable. So I measured the size of this and then basically ordered a car door

08:45sealant that I can slot along the top like that, the whole way around all of the beds.

08:56And that's what I'm going to try and do now. Yeah? There's a magic door. There's a magic

09:01door. Whoa. Where's it go? To Australia. To Australia? I wish that was real. That'd be

09:10pretty cool, wouldn't it? Should we pretend it's real?

09:39Good morning. Good morning. How are we? Yesterday, which was the clips that you've just seen

09:43now, was just such a lovely day. Like if you live in Brighton or you live close to Brighton

09:47or you're visiting Brighton for a day, I can't recommend popping into Lewis, even just for

09:52a couple of hours, if you can do so. We've just got another absolutely lovely day. Completely

09:58blue skies outside. You might be able to hear some music playing if you listen carefully

10:03or like drilling and banging and basically construction and building going on outside

10:08this door. I've mentioned a couple of times recently that we've got something exciting

10:12happening in the garden, something being built. The time has come and it is currently being

10:17built right now, which you won't see in this video because I want to film it once it's

10:20finished. So in next week's video, I'll show you everything outside. But yeah, just wanted

10:26to let this vlog flow over a couple of days. Obviously filmed a bunch yesterday. You can

10:31hear them. I'm guessing they're sorting something outside. Yeah, just wanted to let it flow

10:36over a couple of days. Obviously filmed a bunch yesterday and filming again now. It

10:40is the moment in the vlog where I sit down and I chat to you about the paid partner of

10:44today's video, which is BetterHelp. If you've been watching my videos for a long time, which

10:49I just assume at this point that all of you have, you will know just how much self growth

10:54and working towards being the person that I want to be, being the dad that I want to

10:57be, being the friend that I want to be, being the husband, soon to be, that I want to be,

11:02always just been like at the forefront of not only everything for me, but so much of

11:06what I like share and I push and I talk about online, you know, straight off the bat, one

11:10thing that I love that I feel like is really, really changing with people's thought process

11:15behind therapy is that it is such a strength. It takes genuine courage to open up and talk

11:22about how you're feeling to somebody. And I think over the years, yeah, I just feel like

11:26there's been a real shift in seeing, speaking to a therapist as a real strength instead

11:31of as like a weakness, because it is definitely not that. Fully opening up and being honest

11:36and being vulnerable when like, I suppose like consolidating your feelings and your

11:40thoughts on things into words, even just yourself is hard enough, but to somebody else can be

11:46tough. So I hope that even just through me creating the videos that I do, being open

11:51and talking about having therapy myself and speaking to a therapist and just how much

11:55I've benefited not only is like, I feel like I say this a lot, but genuinely how much I've

12:00benefited myself from it. But everyone around me, my daughters get a better version of their

12:06dad around them because of the benefits that I've experienced. My friends around me, my

12:10family around me, Zoe as well, even Zoe and I have like jumped onto therapy sessions together

12:15and like just made sure that on different things that we're on the same page, that our

12:19thoughts are aligned, that our vision are aligned, that we've got somebody chatting

12:22through things with us. That's been really, really like genuinely, really nice, but it

12:26helps fully online, which makes it more comfortable and more convenient. You simply

12:30fill out a questionnaire and you'll get a match of a therapist in as little as a couple

12:34of days. And you'll get connected with a therapist from a diverse network of credentialed

12:38professionals with a wide range of specialties and backgrounds. Something that is so important

12:42to me is that you can easily switch therapists at any time at no extra costs. They carefully

12:48make sure that their therapists on the platform, of course, are well qualified. And they also

12:52have a customer support team there to support you if you have any questions. Something that

12:56speaks volumes is the fact that on Trustpilot, they have over 7,000 reviews and a 4.5 rating.

13:02Opening up and being raw and honest and working on yourself with a therapist is a sign of

13:07strength, not a sign of weakness. I'm going to put a link here on the screen, betterhelp.com

13:11forward slash Alfie, and you'll get 10% off your first month of therapy. I can only hope

13:16that you get the benefits that I've experienced. Honestly, life-changing stuff. Right, let's

13:22head out into the garden. Yo, you've made unreal progress already.

13:33Yeah, we didn't even start with each other. I know, I'm not speaking to you, I'm speaking

13:36to your mum. People are going to watch my vlogs and be like, wait, when you did the

13:47other vegetable bed, you lumped literally my mum, my dad, and Graham in. Now Zoe's doing

13:51this one, she's getting you to do it. She's got the knowledge. Yeah, and the skill set.

13:57I'm learning. Are you? What have you learned? Mum sold me a course. Since doing up this

14:04area, as you've seen, I've been getting a good few comments asking about these two.

14:11This is Zoe's project that she's over and currently doing. This is still going to be

14:16a flower bed and there are actually still a lot of flowers and bulbs in there,

14:20hidden in there somewhere, so we have to be a bit more careful doing this one.

14:24Whereas this was our vegetable bed, so we're just revamping all of this. Are we going to do double

14:30flowers? What's the plan? I think double flowers. Double flowers? Well, there's enough veg anyway.

14:34So we should give this away. Yeah, let's do that. Shall we put this outside the front,

14:38see if anyone wants to take it? I was going to say, shall we get rid of this? It's nice

14:42soil in there, look at it. Yeah, it's really nice. This is the good stuff. This was here from the

14:46previous owner. All of this soil, I added a little bit of topsoil, but everything else was

14:50here for like, I don't know, 10 years. Although it looks like I've still been outside this whole time,

14:56it's actually been a couple of hours since the last clip. I've just had some lunch,

14:59just got Novi up from her nap, who is currently around doing some cooking in her little kitchen.

15:04Playing in the ice cold water. She just loves it. I don't think little ones can just feel the

15:09temperature. She's drinking. They're just so immune to it. I'm being very cautious on where

15:14the camera is facing because it cannot face the other way at the moment. Come on then,

15:19let's go and see what mummy and nanny have been up to.

15:26Big step. Look.

15:29Whoa, it does look really good. Yeah, we've cleared a lot. Yeah, you've cleared a lot of it.

15:35Yeah. That is so much. There's still a lot of bulbs there, isn't there? Yeah. What are these?

15:40They're daffodils. Nice. You know where she wants to go. We have a walk down that way in the garden.

15:47There's like a nice little countryside walk that we go on. And anytime we come into the garden,

15:51that's all Novi tries to do is just go down this little path and escape off into the walk.

15:57Zoe, no, no, no, no, no. She's chasing me. Oh, you like the ladder? You are playing with fire,

16:02walking down there with her. All she wants to do is get down to that gate and go outside.

16:07Let's just see what she does. Well, we know what she's, what do you mean? All right,

16:11I'll see you in half an hour. I feel like the majority of my last couple of videos has just

16:16been garden content. Again, I wish I filmed it before, but they have put in some serious work.

16:23And this is so nice of all of these still here.

16:27Where are you off to then? Where are you off to?

16:31Knock, knock, knock. Knock, knock, knock. Go and put Nala in and let's see where she

16:36actually takes us. Fortunately, you can't just go outside without a lead on like that.

16:40I need to pop you back inside, Missy. She's desperate to go.

16:46Right, let's just see where she goes. Come on then. Where do you want to go? I'm not going to

16:52like, I'm not going to steer her in any direction.

17:01Quick. Run.

17:10Well, that ended up turning into a 20 or so minute walk, which was actually really lovely.

17:23This is the fourth book I've read in a row. Okay, okay, let me start on page one. Let me start-

17:27She wants a new one already.

17:31She loves this one, but we've got no batteries in it at the moment.

17:33I ordered batteries.

17:35Are you ready? Watch her try and press it and there's no batteries there.

17:39Old Macdonald had a farm. E-I-E-I-O.

17:48How much do you hate that she picked that book?

17:49I read Old Macdonald had a farm and I was like, I'm not going to sing this in the vlog.

17:53I can't just sit here singing it. What noise does doggy make?

17:59And what noise does dap-dap make?

18:03What noise does horsey make?

18:06What noise does horsey make?

18:09Oh, you know horsey.

18:14Okay, what about cow?

18:18Yeah, that's it. What about horsey again?

18:24She's changed her horsey voice.

18:26What about piggy?

18:32Same as horse.

18:33I think that's her noise when she's not sure what noise it makes.

18:36What noise does little sheep make?

18:40Nice, same as a horse. Same as a pig.

18:44Novie, what about a dinosaur?

18:49Yeah.

18:50Come on then, last one. What noise does a caterpillar make?

18:55Mummy, what noise?

18:57Um, I don't think they make noises.

18:59Right, come on then. Let's get you into bed.

19:03Tired.

19:03And then you put yourself to bed. See you in the morning.

19:06Where's she going? She's going to pick another book.

19:10I've already read that one.

19:13You want it again? Come on then.

19:16I don't think there is a baby that exists that loves books as much as Novie.

19:23Come on then. Oh, and you want this one at the same time.

19:26All right, perfect. Come on then.

19:28All right, which one do you want first?

19:29This one. Okay, perfect. We've already read this one, but okay.

19:33Good night Teddy. Good night ball.

19:39Oh, are you done? Do you want this one?

19:42Mama.

19:43Your mummy's here.

19:43I'm here.

19:47Where's Novie gone?

19:48Do you know what I think she is looking for?

19:50Where's Novie gone? Novie? Novie? Where's Novie gone?

19:57Novie? Where's Novie?

20:02And there she is.

20:03I think she's saying mama, but I think she means Otty.

20:06Yeah.

20:07She can't say Otty, so I think sometimes she just says mama.

20:10So Otty's currently staying at my parents tonight.

20:13Kind of didn't mention that in the vlog. She just hasn't really been around today.

20:16Come on then. Let's go get into bed.

20:21That does look cozy.

20:22Night night.

20:23Night night. See you in the morning.

20:26Aw, her little face.

20:30I know what she wants to do.

20:31Roly poly.

20:32Roly poly.

20:33Yeah.

20:34Come on then.

20:35One roly poly.

20:36We'll do one.

20:39No, trip me, she wants another one.

20:43Novie.

20:47Let's do this one.

20:50Come on then, we should go to bed now.

20:55Oh.

21:00She knows that Otty's not here, so she's just making the most out of like,

21:03I know I've got all of their time.

21:05Yeah.

21:07Come on, we don't need Noah's Ark right now. We do need bedtime. Come on.

21:17We're fighting a losing battle.

21:18Otty has got more energy than you can imagine.

21:22She's next to us at the moment.

21:23I love energy. I love energy.

21:34So this question I feel like is incredibly fitting.

21:39Where do you see yourself in 10 years time?

21:43I feel like that is such a big, broad question that we've had like no prep.

21:49Yeah, that's quite a big question for no prep.

21:53The reason why I picked it is because in, I want to say about two weeks time, maybe less,

21:58there is a video that I need to react to.

22:00A video that I filmed, I'm going to put it on the screen here now,

22:02that I recorded for me to watch in 10 years time and in a couple of weeks.

22:06It's like a video time capsule.

22:07Yeah.

22:08I kind of wish I did one of these.

22:09A 10 year capsule.

22:10And I have no idea what I said in the video. I haven't watched it.

22:13I feel like everyone needs to do this, whether they post online or not.

22:16I so wish they'd done it.

22:17Oh, I definitely would have. If I didn't put it online though, I would have just lost it.

22:20I would have just like-

22:20Do you think?

22:21Yeah.

22:22No.

22:22I would have gone into the abyss.

22:23Yeah, but I wouldn't have remembered to come back and watch it.

22:27Do you know what I mean?

22:27I haven't watched yours either.

22:28No.

22:28I've been so tempted, but I haven't.

22:30So in a couple of weeks time, somewhere in a video somehow,

22:34whether it's in a vlog or I don't know yet,

22:36I'm going to sit down and watch and react to my 10 year video.

22:40Are we going to pick just two things that we hope for in the next 10 years?

22:42Because otherwise-

22:43Yeah, that's nice.

22:43I feel like I could give a list as well.

22:45Two things each. We will have a 13 year old, so a teenager.

22:50Oh my gosh, a teenage girl.

22:52And an 11 year old.

22:55What do we want?

22:56Do you know what? As simple as it sounds, I just want more of this.

22:59Just this.

23:01Yeah, just like, well, I just, I don't know. I just love our life.

23:04I don't want to move house.

23:05I'm so happy.

23:06I don't want to, yeah, I don't want to change it.

23:08I don't want to change it, is it?

23:09I'd like for our house to look a bit different.

23:11Are you still going to be doing YouTube?

23:12I'll be 45.

23:13I'll be five. I'll be five years away from 50.

23:21Oh my God.

23:22Oh my gosh.

23:25I don't know if I will or not. I have no idea. I have no idea.

23:28Oh my gosh.

23:29I just feel like the next 10 years is going to be really family focused for me, I think.

23:34Yeah. More children?

23:37I don't, I don't think so.

23:39I don't think so either.

23:40No.

23:40Imagine if we watch this back and we've got like four kids.

23:43I mean, if we do, that will not be in the 10 year plan.

23:47That won't be something we planned for.

23:49Two surprises.

23:50Yeah.

23:51I don't know. I agree. Just like the same.

23:53I guess just like a bunch of lovely family holidays, still living here.

23:59Just everyone a bit older.

24:0045.

24:01A few more wrinkles, a bit more grey hair, maybe, maybe no hair.

24:04I was going to say grey hair, maybe none. Could be gone.

24:07That is amazing that we can sit here and just say more of the same.

24:10Yeah.

24:11That's, we are so lucky to have said that.

24:13I know.

24:14That's so cool.

24:15I feel very lucky. I just want this to-

24:17Hopefully we're still doing YouTube in some way.

24:19Well, you need to make another 10 year video for 10 years time.

24:21Oh, no I can't. No, I can't.

24:22You're not going to?

24:24Do you think I need to?

24:25I feel like you should.

24:26And even if you don't upload anymore, you just come back and you just upload that one video.

24:30That's why I haven't posted in eight years, but I'm back to react to the next 10 year video.

24:34Yeah.

24:35Right. Let us know in the comments down below, what do you want to do in life?

24:39Where do you want to be in 10 years time?

24:41Only two main things.

24:42Yeah, two main things in the next 10 years.

24:45We're going to jump in the comments and read a load.

24:46And yeah, give the video a thumbs up.
