  • Love you peter! God bless you

  • bloody great camera quality and sound

  • Happy Fathers day Peter, your wisdom and sense of fun are qualities that are very much appreciated in a father/grandfather, and here on youtube!

  • What a wonderful video Peter! Your words have been an education for me since I discovered YouTube in 2006. Samsarajade adores you and it's no wonder why, like millions, she does :) Cheers from the US - John Reagan

  • You rock, grandparents rock! Thanks for all your wise words of wisdom.

  • He is so Gentlemen -like with the always-washed - and - ironed shirts and neat looks... and as an English Teacher I love his English... so typically british English...

    SG else: I strongly resent my father becasuse he treated me with brutality, beat me several times in my childhood, mocked and shouted with me and his way of ' bringing up' caused me the GAD syndrome which I fight till current day. So, no Father's Day , thanks.

  • I love it how you greet us by calling us "youtubers."

  • good

  • Very wise, Peter. I lost my father a couple years back, and it sure isn't easy.

    Joesph.

  • Thank you for everything you have given us. What a blessing.

    could you make a list of some of your favorite blues and americana musicians for us? I've heard some incredible music on your videos, but I don't know the artists. If you feel so inclined, my daughter has a music video I know you would like on YouTube.

    Search for EIRENMAIDEN and watch her cover of "Annabelle". An Appalachian/blues roots song...Enjoy!

  • ....... Thanks, :D

  • Heard your interview on National Public Radio today (NPR). Cool!

  • Hello Peter, belated Happy Father's Day! I think what you are doing is fantastic, reaching out with wisdom and a gentle spirit to touch others, embracing technology, still learning and growing. In a culture that devalues, even dehumanizes the elderly, disrespects their lifetime of contributions and hard won experience, you are standing tall and offering hope and inspiration to the rest of us. xoxo

  • woot, can i say,ermm cool video :D

  • Well done.

  • you're a great man geniatric1927

  • Hello from Colorado, USA.

  • Happy Father's Day Indeed Peter,

    A Great video to contribute to all of the father's day video's put up so far. Thank you for this post.

    -Josh

  • PEpeople are smartasses over the net!! Taking shit about people!!!! Don't listen to them mate!!

  • I'd love to give the trolls a great big hug.

    ...Then letting them go over a long drop.

  • oh guys dont be mean! thats just cold!!!!!!!!!

  • You're pathetic. Geriatric with give you cancer with his psycic power >: (

  • happy fathers day Peter, nice quality on the Mac, just I think u need to work on the audio, u have a high pitched ring on it

  • Peter, I've found about your videos two weeks ago and I've already watched each one of them!!! Every night before I go to bed I log on this website exclusively to listen to you! A big hug, dear Peter, form a fan in Brazil that loves you.

  • I'm afraid I burst into laughter at the end... The randomness of the comment about the optical mouse, made me laugh... I love my dad, he's the best in the world... My grandparents are awesome too, always making me smile...

    No matter how old you get, you'll still be a dad and they'll still be your children... 'Tis a lifelong thing, and one of the closest relationships you'll ever get... I can see you appreciate that...

  • Belated Happy Fathers Day Sir!

  • We need the category view back youtube. Who cares what videos you want to feature? Let the people decide what is popular or most discussed by category. Why would you remove a feature that made youtube what it is today?!

  • I lost my grand parents years ago, at quite a young age I guess, but I loved my grand-dad to bits and miss not having that closeness with a grandparent. So all you out there.... love and appreciate them dearly.

    God bless Peter.

  • Thank you and Happy Fathers day to you sir. I never met my grandfathers and lost my own Dad and Mam. I know its a few days late. Hope you had a very good day. God Bless.

  • omgsh your the cutest grampa ever!

  • i think its great that you have took the time to add to this site, i found all your vids interesting and i agree with volkeng youtube isnt for uploading copied music vids of mtv its about hearing other peoples views and way of life

  • i gave my dad a book about a son who murders his father to rule instead of him lol

  • i got my dad hair gel and a toblerone!!

  • Im pretty sure the 50,000 views+ he gets. No need to bash him.

    Remember You Tube was founded on the basis of "Self Video Blogging" not watching MTV music videos.

    Keep making um! :D

  • Right on, if you want MTV, go watch that. This guy is something entirely different.

  • Do not listen to anyone who says anything bad about you. You are not selfish or ignorant. You are wise, and people should have more respect for their elders as you've lived your life, gained experience and you are just trying to give something back to all of us. I admire you greatly, keep up the good work!

  • You babble on about any thing and everyone watches your shitty vides around the world, you could do so much better, there is a girl that has gone missing and is big news in the UK called Maddie, You could at least of said something, but NO all you care about is yourself and your precious Youtube

  • Don't like it don't watch it. What positive thing have you done today?

  • And all you care about is yourself too because I don't see you contacting the media about anything worth while. And who said that Peter is in charge of broadcasting the news??? Peter can say whatever he wants. Remember this is YouTube, which unfortunately includes, brainless and callus individuals like you!!

  • Did you actually listen to this video? As for Maddie this has been the biggest missing person campaign in history so what possible use is there for every person to clog up the world with more useless fog. Get real Daz!

  • Heh lol you speak the truth...keep the vids coming :D

  • Great video! keep them coming! wish you the best of luck and the videos are good advice to all and evryone should learn from you :D

  • that was sweet couse me dad :( dont give a dann

  • Well said,nicely done!

  • ooh yeah fathers day was not that long ago eeh? last saturday!! oh.. no i forgot my dad a present!!! I feel guilty!!!

    Go england!!

    Go grandads!!!

  • I like your blog video you remind me of my dad a bit makes me cry watching you. Hope you had a good fathers day.

  • Hi Peter, I've created a video clip of some 1923 trade cards of 1920's motorcycles for you, as promised. I hope you like them.

  • You are an inspiration ever since your first video keep going :D

  • How can some of you people say what youre saying? If you think he shouldnt be on the internet, then maybe you shouldnt either. Pathetic how some of you just do this to get a rise out of people.

  • What is an intenet you animielover2010??? Oh, I forgot you must be only 5 years old because 2010 is when you will actually be old enough to spell words correctly! Does mommy and daddy know you are on the intenet??

  • How terrible is this? If he isn't allowed to use the internet, you definately shouldn't.

  • Just because he's old doesn't mean that he shouldn't be allowed to use widely-available technology, nor that he resembles a policeman. Why not get off the internet and learn some manners?

  • everything he says makes sense

  • :-) can't really think of anything else to comment with that might sound half intelligent so here's a smile for a true gentlemen.

  • How anyone can insult this man is beyond me. Show some respect please this guy is a very good man, 43,000 subscribers are proof of that.

  • He's a lovely gentleman and people are just horrible. Rawr.

  • Thanks Grampa, I think you are great! I wish you were my real Grandpa, Love to you

  • hello youtubers lmfao

  • old bag idc about your need!

  • why are you even viewing and or commenting on one of his videos then :/

  • What a sweetie! I never knew my father and my grandfather died before I was born. I wish I could adopt you as my dad and take you to tea!

  • almost 4 minutes of stating the obvious. yippee!

  • wow sarcasm, proves you ignorant

  • happy fathas day! i know i'm a bit late, but.....thanks for all the great vids..and i'm a bit disgusted about all the tasteless comments many people have left...anyway, we all love ya!

  • Thank you for sharing that and you are right I think many of us do feel guilty for not spending more time with our parent and grandparents. Thank you so much for your perspective.

  • mate y diss some one who his enjoying his life by doing what he does. if he wnats to sit on his chair n tlk about fathers day let him. dont listen to all the haters keep going mate

  • I find it hard to believe you are spending your last years infront of your cam. Damn, go on holiday or something. I think you do this because you are lonely.

  • This man is doing something he enjoys. I don't understand what your problem is with that.

  • Exactly, well said. Good on you mate, keep it going!

  • Peter is definitely not lonely. Look at all the comments he gets!! And the other endeavors he is involved in, like the 3 million and growing hits on the Zimmers. You only wish to have these many people even caring to listen to you! TequilaDahl you need to cheer up and live a little just like Peter is doing! And who knows when your last days are? None of us know this. I guess misery loves company is in your case true.

  • wow, what a nice man, u my man are a legend

  • aw thats really nice. not that your grand parents and dad died but you know.

  • oops i meant 1927 sorweee

  • Aww geriatric 1929 you are soo cute...if i was 60 years older ha ha keep up the good work babe x

  • Have you ever wonder.. I think this guy is reading something off his computer. Maybe something off another site :S

    If not then this guy is cool ;)

  • I appreciate the Grand-Fatherly Wisdom, and the fact that you are comfortable enough with the modern computer technology to be able to pass it on to us!

  • this guy's cool

  • Show some Respect you Silly People. How is this man a paedophile. Get some Respect, then repost.

  • Do you have personal experience?

  • what is that beeping sound in the background???

  • That was well done. I have read some of your comments; some are, well, 'tasteless'. I do feel comfort in knowing that some day your ass will fall off and your boobs will sag. The best part is to know that I am rich and you are not. Enjoy your youth, for mortality has not touched you,,,yet.
