Well, I gave you the last video a little late, 24 hours before the public, so to make up for that you get this one away ahead of schedule.
I've been hitting the videos hard this week in an effort to catch back up as I have some really cool videos to get onto.
Also, I'd like to thank all of you guys for your contri...

Hey guys, bit late this one, it's been a busy week.
And I'm afraid not the longest video either, someone had it in for me this day and boarded up the door to the factory mere minutes before I got back.
But I hope you enjoy anyway.
All the best,

This one follows up from me arriving at Tim & Julie's. After a few horrible weeks on the road, they took me in and get me away from all the horribleness during the "easin...

Well, it seems like ages now since we had to leave, and going back through the footage of times like these sucks, however this had to have been my favourite and funniest time editing a video ever, mainly down to the sheer hilarity of Marie, Ash and Jez.

Hey guys,
As some of you may know, I joked a long time back about making an upstairs bed room on the van, deemed "giving it a Slaphead".
Well, as I catch up with videos, this has been going ahead.
