Thanks Matt, i used to love having a drink and chat with the tough old gents in pubs. The stories they tell and some of the B/S they tell you of is great listening. You’re a wonderful storyteller yourself mate all the best to you!

[kaiying]

Good one Matt. I'm trying to get a bit of walking in lately. I had a stroke 10years ago and struggle with mental health these days. You've given me a bit of a kick to get out and work towards getting fit again. Take care man.

Been here since you only had a few thousand subs, I suggested you should go on some podcasts to help channel grow. You didnt need to you grew this channel organically by getting on some great guests, grear tales of the past, and the way you deliver the story has clearly improved. it's been quite a rise since them days of a few thousand subs, and you've mostly achieved it by being your authentic self. Well done Matt, tremendous stuff mate. Keep them coming. Cheers

[Britec]

Matt, I love the way you put these videos together, keep doing what your doing brother. Awesome.

This was such a griping story Matt. Different personalities from these Two Gypsies of fighting! I loved seeing Mr. Frankham sporting his Lonsdale Belt @0:44 with his son I'm presuming as they mugged for the camera with their identical fists! Crazy how Mr. Rooney demanded a fight with Mr. Frankham and then when his bluff was called, he decided to insist that they Dance the next day which Mr. Frankham decided "now is a good a time as ever"! The research and time you spend to entertain your Fans is not lost on us either Matt. Thank You! Also, brilliant of you to enclose the links for us to view as well. Appreciate you asking us how we all are doing and seeing your videos means we are in a great place! Cheers From Across The Pond in Ohio!
