Dogs, Kids & A Covid Christmas

Because I can hardly string a sentence together at the moment. I wonder if I should get Botox. Just sitting in the rain. I bloody love you guys. Today, we're gonna go to James's sister's. Do a little gift exchange. Socially distanced, obviously. We're gonna go into our back garden. Which will be good. Everybody will be freezing. So, I just thought that I would get ready. I don't really wear that much makeup. To be honest. Especially now, because we're not doing anything. But if I do put some on, this is what I do. I try not to put too much on my forehead. Because when I wear makeup, I notice that the first place where you get those lines of makeup is on my forehead. Probably because of the deep lines on my forehead. Somebody did tell me once that the best way to stop the lines of makeup when it creases in, is to get Botox. I was like, oh, okay. I was really just looking for a primer or something. But thanks. A bit of bronzer. A little lip and cheek tint. You do have to be quite quick to rub that in, because it kind of dries and it stains a little bit. I mean, that's basically what it is. It's like a stain. I might have done too much on my nose. Eyebrows. Make the front look a bit fuller. I've been replying to loads of comments on the first video. Everybody's been really nice. This is Urban Decay brow finish. This is Too Faced mascara. The lines on my forehead are becoming a bit crazy. I wonder if I should get Botox. Anyway, highlighter. I mean, when I said this was every day, that's turned into a big lie, because I definitely don't do this every day. Since I'm here, why not? That's pretty much me done. I'm gonna go get dressed now, and then I need to get the kids dressed, and then James dressed. I'm joking. Pack some blankets, maybe like a little heat pad for the boys. Get all the Christmas presents that we need to take and jump in the car. We'll take you along. I'm making an effort these days, I'm on camera. You know. I'm gonna dry shampoo my hair to death. Oh, that's too much, innit? Alright. That's it. I'm done. To my sisters. Sort of early Christmas. Obviously we have to do it in the garden. The quicker we get there, the quicker we can get back. Can't wait. Can't wait to sit out in someone's freezing cold garden. Then we've gotta go to one of those light trail things that are booked for us all. You know, James, there's not a lot to do. There's not a lot to do these days, is there? This year. But I can't wait to go and look at some lights. The marvel of electricity. You guys are excited for the light trail, aren't you? Yeah, I can't wait to look at lights and walk for about three hours. You see? You see what you do? I mean, we're filming quite a lot and obviously most of it's boring because we're bogged down in marrying the happy family sort of thing. Did you nearly say happy and then stop yourself? Remember, I forgot to be real. Exactly. You might not even see this. Probably won't because I can hardly string a sentence together at the moment. Yeah, Christmas! Also, I feel like I should mention... Also, I feel like I should mention that... Also, I feel like... You funny guys! I know, right? We're using the little Canon camera so hopefully this will be the camera that we use when we go out and about and stuff. Because the other one that we use is quite big. But you can connect a microphone to it so the sound's better. So the sound might not be good on this camera but if the audio's not that good then, you know, get in touch with Canon and talk this complaint to them. Don't put it in our comments section. Go on, go for it. Merry Christmas. What are you doing, Claire? Just standing in a garden with some Prosecco. Right, I should put this down because this does just look as if I'm like... What have you got there, Jimmy? I've got a little hot chocolate. I'm sitting by the fire. Merry Christmas. Corona Christmas. We're just sitting in the rain. Having a hot chocolate. It's just properly raining now. Just raining. Just sitting in the rain. Are you having a good Christmas, Claire? We're on our way back now. That was a chilly few hours. I don't mind telling you. Chilly and wet. I love it. I love standing in the rain. First of all, I mean, there was nothing interesting that went on for us to get any kind of vloggable content. But we did do some gift giving. Some early Christmas gift giving. We unwrapped some presents and stuff. I can show you guys the type of stuff that my mum gets me. Which is always good fun. Yeah, I used to get HP sauce. I used to get HP sauce every Christmas. Yeah, man, I've got some great gifts. And I've already said, so don't think I'm being mean. I've already said to my mum, I'm going to take the piss out of these when I get home for the vlog. Oh, that sounded wet. Did everybody have fun? Yeah. James? Did you have fun? I sure did. What Jude? Fantastic. Oh no. We're hitting traffic. Oh, what's this guy doing sitting in the middle? Think there's been a crash. Whoa. Finally some warm stuff. James! Let go, you idiot. Oh my god, I'm freezing. You're so annoying. That smell. I think that was the gas from the fire. Shut up. You okay? What's happened? James, that smells so bad. I'm not even joking. You must be able to smell that. I don't feel well. It is a bit eggy, isn't it? Anyway, we are home. We're freezing. I'm warming up now. Yeah, we finally got the fire working. I've got a really sore back from being tense. Cheers. This is one of the gifts. I already had a Stella cup and now James has got one. Stella glass, good. Needed one of those. PlayStation t-shirt, which is good. That's fine, I can wear them on my streams. The glass is good, t-shirt's good. A sort of Where's Wally book and it's called Who's Farted and you have to there's like lots of crowd scene pictures and then you have to can I find someone who's farted here? What are we looking for? What does it look like? Oh, some green stuff coming out their arse. It's actually really difficult. See, you were about to take the best one. Look at us using it. Who's farting there? I can see a fart, but I can't see who's farted. So hours of fun with that, I'm sure. My sister got me a bottle of Monkey 47 which is always very much appreciated. That's our favourite gin. To be fair, these aren't bad presents, Jimmy. No, these are good this year. You should get some of your old presents. It's gone to the dump, hasn't it? Right. Build on brick mug. It's a mug that you can put Lego on it or something. Handy. I got a Crystal Palace key ring, which is a good gift, but the only problem is that I already have a Crystal Palace key ring that I keep my keys on. I've had it for years and I wasn't really in the market for a Crystal Palace key ring. But it's a key ring. It's a classic. Yeah, great. You can never have enough key rings. Can you not? No. Luckily enough, I've got another key ring here. Is this from your mum as well? Yeah, this was from my mum. Because I love video games. So she got me a Space Invaders game key ring. Picking me up from somewhere and I'm running a bit late. Perfect. She knows I'm a big reader. I love reading. A book that I've always wanted was a sort of anecdotal book. It's called Last Christmas. It's got Graham Norton talking about his memorable Christmas. Stephen Fry. Who's that? Emily Watson. Harry Potter. No, that's Emma Watson. Emma Thompson. Nanny McPhee. I've not seen that film. Never seen it. Graham Norton just kicks off with Catering Killed Christmas. I like Graham Norton a lot. Don't get me wrong. You don't care about his Christmases. But the main thing about this book is that 25p from this book will be paid to Crisis and the Refugee Council. There you go. I've got a beard. So I'll be expecting a lot more of these over Christmas. Beard brush. Beard balm. No. There's no scent there. That's good. That's handy. That was from my sister, that one. My mum also got me some McVitie's Jaffa Cake nibbles. Now, I'm not ungrateful. You're coming across as a bit ungrateful. I'm not ungrateful, Claire. So I'm at the stage of my life now where I'm just looking for stuff that I need. That I can do with. That I can use. Glass for my beer. Need that. Needed one of those. Do you know, we didn't actually buy that. Didn't Stella send you the hamper? That would have been interesting for a vlog one day. Yes, Stella. That would have been interesting. I don't really get sent stuff much anymore. But, to be fair, pretty good this year. Previous years I've had some weird stuff. What are some of your previous years? I can't think of them. I can't remember. Who can remember previous... Didn't you get RAF World War II socks or something? Yeah. Yeah, that was it. She went, oh, I know you're interested in history. I went, as I was opening it, I was like, oh, okay. I wonder what this is then. Because I was interested in history, she bought me some socks with some spitfires on them. I know you like socks. I know you like history. Yeah, stuff like that I usually get. This one's not been too bad. But that's it. Shall we finish off our drinks? I do love Stella though. But I like it when you drink a few cans of Stella. I'll go get you another one. This is it. This is the big Saturday night plans. So that was alright. That was a nice little afternoon. It was raining the whole time. I mean, it is what it is. Lots of people have got to do it. Alright. Beer time. A little bit of work to do in the evening. I sucked it all back up so that you didn't have to. I was thinking of you. This is why we have a blanket. This is why we have a blanket on the couch. I see you. Okay. She's a big, big dog. She thinks she's little. She does think she's little. What? A cup of tea. We're at the light trail. It's started absolutely pouring. Well, they've got some pancakes. They do. There's a little pancake stall right next to us. And who are these guys here? So you guys can say hello because you've got your masks on. Hi. This feels weird. Do you want to introduce yourselves? My name is Uncud. No. No. My name's Jude. Harrison and Jude. The boys. Check it out. What have you got there, Judy? A creamy hot chocolate. I hope it stops raining soon. Just enjoying some pancake balls. Which, funnily enough, was my nickname at school. What have you been up with? Usually, you wouldn't be able to see that tree, but they've lit it up with a red light. Which is good. Purple and blue. Watch out for anything magical. Got to watch out for magical stuff, Harrison. What did you think of the talking tree? It freaked me out. What are we going to do? Are we going to beat them? Are we going to beat them? Yeah, we beat you. Look at these two idiots. You look like a right couple of mags. Others moves. Who's this little guy? Sonic. Who just said run away from mum? Are you still whinging about the slow people? Well, I'm just saying we just walk through it. It's what you're supposed to do, isn't it? You're not supposed to stand under it and inspect every bulb. Listen, they are just lights, aren't they? Somebody else is stopping a game for 20 minutes to look at a disco ball. Just walk through it. Right, we're going past. I've made the decision. Come on. This is where we make a wish, I think. We've got to write down what we would like and we put it on the wall. On the wish wall. Can I tell what I did? Yeah. OK, Harrison, what's your wish, darling? To have Papa drop back. Right, Jenny, what's your one, darling? For the poor to have some money. For the poor kids to have some money at Christmas. I put that my boys are always happy and healthy. James's one. What is it? It's to try to stop being so annoying all the time. That's what Dad wrote. Look at all these wishes. Let's put ours all together. Oh, sorry, darling. Papa joke is my great Papa and I never got to I never got to see him. Never got to meet him. No. But you always wished you did, didn't you? A part of your family died. Yeah, I know. No, I didn't. I'm trying to keep it light. It's just a light, frothy sort of vlog. Read the room. My wish will come true. Nope. I think it's more likely that Papa joke comes back. You've sort of established yourself famously as a dropper. What did you do with Gran Gladys's birthday cake? I dropped it. It was heavy and it was hanging off the edge. Merry Christmas. I was about to put my coat down. You didn't even empty the dishwasher. It's cool, isn't it? Are you going to do a David Attenborough impression? Yeah. Go on then. As you will see here, the lion is sleeping. Very good. I think we're coming to the end. We had a good day. Really good day. Came home. Had some soup. We watched the Santa Claus. Made a little cheese board. This is probably the most Christmassy day we've had so far. I'm in the Christmas mood now. But we had fun. It was nice to get out and about. Hopefully, we've made a vlog. Another vlog. We're sitting here now. I've got no idea what this vlog is going to be. We've shot quite a lot over the last few days. I feel the pressure now. To be fair, a lot of people were saying, I hope it's a regular thing. Which is great. The amount of people that said they can't wait for the next one really made me worried. I think it's alright. We're going to get better. Yeah, we'll get better. We've already learnt a lot of stuff. Are you ok? I just spotted one in my fake nails. Is it gone? No, I've got it. It must have been when I put them on. That's one of my ones. I think Harrison wants to come and tell everyone. I think Harrison thinks the outfit Harrison wants to do the sign off. H-Bomb! Do you want to come and tell these people what to do now that the video's ended? One second. You guys wait right there. Does this thing look weird on camera? It's sticking up. What's wrong with that? It's just a zip. So it's the 14th today so we're a solid 10 days away from Christmas Eve. This time in 10 days time we'll be all excited to go to bed. Yep. You were writing it down? Hi everyone. Hope you enjoyed today's vlog. Don't forget to hit the subscribe button and smash the like button. And hit the bell icon so you don't miss another video. Bye. That was really good. Judd, do you want to do yours? I just hope that everyone has a very Merry Christmas and I just want people to enjoy this video. Hope they had fun watching it. I just want you to have a Merry Christmas. Good job, Judd. I bloody love you guys. Harrison's gone like this so I think he's telling me to wrap it up. I think he's telling us to wrap it up. Hopefully we'll do one another time next week. Bye. Say bye Claire. Bye. Say bye Claire. Bye Claire.
