Dan The Gardener - ha, has been doing short, daily videos for well over a month, and it's been very enjoyable. I love that it doesn't take too long to get caught up on his activities. Do what you can, we'll enjoy it very much. Stop when you want. It's all good.
Dan comes across really well in the Chateau Diaries; not so well on his own vlogs. Michael has an artistic bent which is very special. Always look forward to all his content. Hope it goes well for him.
@@serenashaw-q3y Dan and Billy have a very easy fun chemistry on Billy’s channel and I think Dan is doing much better as his channel grows. It’s not so easy to suddenly become a documentary, producer, director, editor, actor, sound guy, content writer, and psychic. It takes a minute to find a grove. You say Michael come here and just start out with ease but you 4get he had learned so much on his friends channel and the tv show he had done. It’s not easy is all I have to say.
We look forward to the daily vlogs. We believe you can do it. Dan the Gardener has had great success, his are pretty short, but it totally works. Best of Luck.
I was so fascinated to see those long tomatoes. What a lovely green house you have. It was nice meeting your friends. Everyone you know there is so generous with their time and talents. As are you and Billy. I'm so happy I found your vlog! 🤗
Greetings from Alaska. Another great vlog. It's good to have you taping again. I know others have said it before, but you have been missed. Love Duncan and Janet. She seems amazing. Congrats to her on surviving that horrible cancer. It was very nice of her to help you prune back the greenhouse plants. Duncan is a great worker. He seems to be very knowledgeable and a diligent worker. You and the family have been quite fortunate to become friends with so many amazing people with building skills. I look forward to your daily videos. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help you out. Love to all there and stay safe. SH
I'm revisiting past vlogs because I miss you Michael. They are still very enjoyable. I hope your are still working on the cottage. Mary Ann Recht, Chicago.
Dan the gardener does 5-7 minutes every day & I've been having fun watching him. He does a bit of fast forwarding, but covers important stuff. The music he's chosing is awesome 😎
I’m so excited for the daily vlogs! In my opinion, 5-15 minute vlogs are plenty. They can be about the garden, the cottage, the property, cooking or anything else! Pretty much anything in someone elses life can be interesting if shown in snippets
People really don't pay attention, do you seriously think he hasn't seen anyone else's videos get real. They all show support great for each other. Good vlogs Michael :)
Thank you so much for letting us into your life great video and I have enjoy all your videos You take care and do what you want we are just happy to see you back and happy Love from the rock 💕💕🌈
I was grateful for the gardening tip for today as my tomatoes seem to be having a slow growth process. I had never heard of trimming off excess branches.
Hi Michael, your friend Janet is really lovely, I will definitely check out her channel! Great vlog, thank you for sharing, look forward to your daily vlogs, do what you can, it's just really nice to have you back! Take care, stay safe! Much love Kathy x (Ontario, Canada)
I think it’s great you’re setting yourself such a challenge! Dan was apprehensive about doing it as well, and it turned out so well for him. He seems to really enjoy it, i liked what he said about it making him appreciate the small ir “mundane” moments that he didn’t previously think were vlogable
@Anna Timm. Yes, loved that observation of his, that making the videos made him more mindful and aware of the value of the mundane. Thanks for reminding of that observation of his! 😘
I am slowly going through your older videos such as this, and I so enjoyed this one with Ms. FOPY. Just a lovely chat. Please do more Michael. I miss you and Nick putting the organ back together. I’m sure you’ll be busy on the chapel ceiling at the convent soon.
Michael, it is so wonderful to see the light back in your eyes. I am so very happy for you. Thank you also for teaching me how to trim my tomatoe plants.
Very enjoyable I also love the quick daily blogs Dan the gardener does which shows they don’t have to be too long a snippet of your day will be fun to see . Love australia 🇦🇺
An entire week of vlogs! I am literally giddy with excitement! It is going to be epic! You are making amazing progress with the cottage. Thank you for the video!
Check out “Life in Rural France”, Dan the gardener’s daily vlog. They aren’t long but I look forward to seeing them every day. Just show a snippet of what you are doing each day, keep it simple and short. Look forward to seeing what you post.
Hi Michael. One of the things you need to do for tomatoes, is get rid of the suckers. It is important to check them at least once a week. They will produce mor tomatoes in the long run.
Today’s unplanned gardening video was wonderful and I learned so much… Michael your content whether 30 minutes or 10 minutes is so very enjoyable… Looking forward to whatever you choose to share.
May I suggest one of your first vlogs include putting right that beautiful little garden that your mum & Sadie planted in front of your cottage for you while you were in Spain! It's looking very sad and there's some nice plants in there worth saving. The Chateau gardens really missed you!
You're my 1st Chateau subscription...which led to Chateau Diaries...then obviously to Dan the gardener, Marie & Selmar from there as well as Sadie, Ryan and Aunty Om & Sean from here. Love all of your channels and happily await the next videos from all! ❤ Janet now too!
The "funny looking" tomatoes look a lot like a variety called Smiley Worm. I grew them as a joke last year but they're a great paste/sauce tomato and very tasty.
Hello Michael! I loved this vlog and really enjoy just everyday, puttering around the house stuff, too. Don't worry about making long videos as 5 minutes is just great, plus don't stress about needing to keep up the everyday commitment. It's just really nice to see you back 💕
I like the sound of Janet's channel vlogs, the daily life of France and living is my main draw, will sub obviously and looking forward to following, the cottage is looking good Michael and I like your English Country/France ethos. D
I agree with Scot and Wendy, just do what you can, have a look at Dan's vlog for a few tips even though from your earlier vlog episodes you should have no problems . Some are only 7/8 mins long .. looking forward to watching them. 💪🏻💪🏻🥰
Dan the Gardner from La Lande has been doing a vlog a day. Was only supposed to be for 30 days to pay for a new camera. He really likes it and is now up to 61 days in a row. Only 5 to 10 minutes long and they are great. Good to see you Michael, glad you are vaccinated!!!
I wouldn't cover that stone in the cottage. I love that rough/distressed look, probably because we don't have much of it here in America. Of course there are some places where you can find old houses, cottages (I live about 10 minutes from a place called German Village in Ohio). Where a lot of Germans settled in about 1802. That is early for us...Well we do have The Roanoke colony , estab. 1585 and Jamestown in 1607. ..Oh and Plymouth Rock, 1620...... Thank you for carrying a lovely channel.
Fabulous Michael look forward to daily visits hopefully we’ll see your mum and dad and wee Bertie you can do it Happy you’re back mojo intact let’s go😍❤️👏👏👌
You seem much more relaxed in this video, Michael! It was good to see you gardening with Janet. I am glad you don't seem to be as tense as you were. Enjoy your video making. No one should be mad at you if you miss a day. 😊 Just have fun!
Ah, the tomatoes grew so high in such a short time! Definitely happy plants! So happy to see you have electricity upstairs! Thinks are coming along nicely. Can't wait to see this week's episodes: always enjoy a cup of coffee or 2 while watching. Take care!
Have a look at what Dan from La Lande has done with the ceiling in his cottage lounge room - you could treat and oil your beams, then insulate and plaster board the same way. It keeps the character of the room, and adds lovely features that won’t cost you much!
this is so exciting! what a treat. Don't push yourself it doesn't have to be long or overly edited. Just have fun and pace yourself. What a treat. Take care and see you tomorrow.
Hi Michael. I also am a fan of Dan the gardener and his short dailies. Five to ten minutes a day seems perfect and alleviates my guilty fear of not getting my own work done. You are already very accomplished at interesting content, filming, music and editing as well as possessing a vivid imagination. Good luck with your goals. Thanks🙏🏻❤️
Stephanies gardener Dan on Escape to Rural France does short vlogs everyday which is nice because alot of vloggers seem to post on same day so it gives me something to watch on other days. Dead, diseased, damaged and crossing (for trees)
@@NoOneHere2Day I think he has transitioned beautifully into vlogs. In one year he went from being a carpenter to being a producer, editor, director, content creator, actor, camera man, and perfect human. There are so many keyboard specialist who make sure to find something they are doing wrong and point out all there faults bc I assume they are so unhappy in their own lives so they want to lash out at people to feel better about theirselves. It quite sad how cruel people are. They then don’t understand why the vlogger starts to get salty bc they are just trying to survive all of the negativity of people who try to destroy them. So I’m done but I really hope some of y’all rude, mean, and sad umm people learn to be a better human.
@@NoOneHere2Day Oh, I think Dan's vlogs are vastly entertaining and he has learned so much so quickly! Especially his ability to take a tiny moment and make it beautiful & interesting & his editing is top notch. I am amazed he can produce that quality what with his job, wife& kids, plus his own renovations, just amazing!
