  • lovely place to live!!

  • enjoyed this

  • You are amazing! The best <3

  • loooved the footage of you on the motorcycle with the cane lying on the ground next to you!

  • Thanks for putting together this collection of old clips. I enjoyed watching them.

    For a future video, perhaps you could discuss your experiences over the years with computers and your observations as they "evolved" into a form that was affordable and accessible to nearly everyone.

  • Maybe you have already talked about it and if so please point me to the video.

    What are your views on religion? Are you now religious? Do you practice? What don't you agree with in religion? And what are your views on people who do not believe in a god?

    Love your videos and think you are the most lovely man on the internet. Keep it up!

  • you are awesome keep up the great work

  • We love you Peter!

    I had never seen that clip of you on the motorbike before... wow! It's so incredible to see a man of your age still messing about with engines and doing what makes you happy! It's amazing to see all the things you get up to!

    I don't ever remember you talking about the women in your life, other than your late-wife. It might be that she was the only one worth talking about! :) But that would be an interesting subject for a video if you're stuck for ideas.

  • Great memories of these years, Peter! Like some others have mentioned, as one who always had a fascination for bikes and raced motocross and enduro in the 60s and 70s, I'd love to hear more of that background, also.

  • Great footage Peter! Thanks for sharing!

  • love to know what sparked your interest in motor bikes, can you remember the moment? great vid as always.

  • @collieennis yes I can and thinking of doing a video as some others are curious as well.

  • you're never really old until regrets take the place of dreams, ive seen people in their 20's older then people in there 80's. I'm sure Peter probably gets annoyed by all the "old people" comments haha, but then again we'd all be lucky to reach our 80's plus

  • Best clips :) really good compilation Peter, good job on, the video.

  • Loved the video !

  • Enjoyed watching your video from beginning to end. Thank you for putting it all together. I think the segment I enjoyed most was the short bit of you riding the motorcycle.  It's always interesting to see how other people live life and have fun! Cheers from HK.

  • I enjoyed taking a trip in your time machine...

  • Peter...great video...did you see the film the Kings Speech? Did you like it? I thought it was great...

  • @rcriddell Unfortunately not yet but of course have seen all the reports and the awards that it got. Of course the abdication and King George's time was also my time. The Queen is a year older than me.

  • Peter! I love all that you represent sir. A time of common decency and respect. I'm sorry you feel it necessary to disable ratings, I always give you 5 stars (Like) and I fave your posts too. I know the world has appreciated you sharing your wealth of knowledge and experiences. I hope your health is good, as I'm looking forward to many more posts from you. Again, Thank you so much!

  • I loved that bit at the end with you, Huey, and Tom singing a Happy Birthday message to Zipster--Priceless! ~ Would love to see you someday...ever been to California's Eastern Sierras?? x)) Love you, Peter~ You're wonderful!!

  • @HolmespuninkSpot Yes that was fun, I had a whole house full of visitors including Zipster and you can imagine what a riot that would be.

  • I would love it if you re-uploaded your visit from Caitlin (TheHill88), which you took down after getting some stupid comments from trolls. Caitlin actually uploaded her video of that visit very belatedly. But I will understand if you don't.

  • I love blues, I specially love to play the blues. You're such a cool person, I wish I could meet you someday

  • Awesome video!

  • You are truly an inspiration for me :)

  • fantastic video

  • I echo the sentiments of most people on here, I love bikes, blues, and I love you too, you are the nicest guy ever

  • another great video peter!!

  • In the ITV news guy interview the camera you had back then was what I remembered most. Horrible squeaky noise haha.

  • It's so good to see an elderly man of your age still living life to the absolute fullest! What an inspiration :)

  • ...talk about how to get old and avoid the pitfalls that befall some of the younger generation...

  • wow!

    I loved this video. It was great to see past videos and clips of when you were noticed.

    and its so true that among all the crap of todays internet there is this person, or some people, that just talk about stuff that interest them and that are so nice about everything!

  • I can't understand that of the 50.000 subscribers that you have, only 2000 of them watch your videos. I really like watching them and would love to see another episode about motorcycles :). Greetings from the Netherlands.

  • I love that quote, "Nobody grows old simply by living a number of years......" by Samuel Ullman. How true. You rock, Peter. Thanks.

  • Great video :)

    You could talk about the time where you were famous for being such a youtube star perhapse, I would be very interested in a bit of history on that subject.

    Keep on going, Peter!

  • Your photo of you on your motorbike reminds me of one I have of my mother's cousin on his, perhaps about the same time. My mother's father had a motorcycle and sidecar which he used to do his rounds (he was a Presbyterian minister in Dumfries, Scotland. He never owned a car.

  • i love your videos!

    you can talk about everything. i will love it

  • You're a legend Peter! I love you so so much!

  • :)

    Love ya bunches Peter! Working on the new site build right now.

  • Love your videos

  • Love your videos

  • Another great video Peter! Keep up the good work! Even though my mother is gone now I still have the memories of her for the past 47 years. Her favorite music was big and and swing. Her favorite singers were Frank Sinatra and Don Ho. She loved Hawaiian music as well because as you know we lived in Hawaii back in the 60's.

  • thank you. this was wonderful and took me away from my recent pain. you always make me smile. keep it up.

  • You are just wonderful! you ARE like a packet of werther's originals! :) Your videos make me happy!

  • The nice thing about motorcycles, England or America, you sit on the same side of the bike, unlike motorcars. Right hand throttle ? Right foot shift ?

  • Honestly peter you bring class to youtube. Thank you, I hadn't seen some of this footage, it was amazing!

  • You're an Icon and a YouTube legend to many people. I think you influenced videoblogging strongly.

  • Hey Granddad!

    You were and are very handsome! Hehe! =) I have a granddad who loves motorcycles too! He is 80 this year and he still likes to zoom around on it as well! ! lol When did you start riding? What is your fav bike? =) I bet you took a lot of pretty girls around on it, and impressed them! ^___^ Hehe.! Also, do you cook? ^__^ What do you like to cook? What kinds of foods did you have to eat during the war? ^__^ I think you probably have answered these in your older videos. -.-: Love ya!

  • peter can i have that easy button?

  • Your wife is rolling in her grave with you on that bike again. Always makes my day when I see you have put up a video and puts a smile on my face (at least once) while I am watching it. I would venture that the last chapter of your life would rival any of the ones that preceded it!! I know you have made my current chapter richer and fuller. Thank You.

  • You are a wonderful person Peter! You never cease to amaze me! I truly love you! God bless you <3

  • Enjoyed this video very much. You are a breath of fresh air,

  • I love hearing your stories. 

  • Peters smitten with the Queen:P 

  • Love this video! Thanks for making these videos Peter, I feel like you've really become like a part of the family for a lot of us watchers! I know you wanted specific requests for things to talk about in future videos, but honestly I will continue watching no matter what, even if it's just about something as simple as your day or the weather.

  • "Like finding a packet of Werther's Originals in a porn dungeon"! Haha, I love that.

  • oh peter you're so cool ;)

  • well, i will be 64 in may peter, so i will see if my wife will still feed me when i am 64. great video

  • great video

  • Love it. especially Rose of My Heart. Only seems like yesterday that I filmed that bit.

  • How wonderful to see this, Grandad! Such handsome pictures of you as a young man and just as handsome to this day. If it's not too personal, I'd really enjoy hearing about how you met your wife and what it was like dating/courting in your younger years. I imagine it's nothing like it is today.

  • Hahaha i love the picture where you're getting a shoe shine :)

    thanks for sharing this video it was really really nice!

  • Brilliant video as always Peter :) Keep doing what you do man. My grandma died a few days ago and you are a very inspiring elderly figure. 83 and still strong ;)

  • What kind of music do you like ?

  • @LeTinamster he loves blues!! he also likes jazz and rock 'n' roll, but his main passion's blues :)

  • I remember you once recalling how you and a friend experimented with a bottle of rum in your early years. I wouldn't mind hearing about tales of eccentricity from your youth of another generation, and early contact with motorcycles, although I'd guess that you may have covered that in your 'telling it all' series. Sticking to what you're actually asking for, has the success of youtube helped you to do something that you'd always wanted to do, like having a shoe-shine? Thanks for posting.

  • You got to meet the Queen ?! That's awesome !!!! Tell us about it ! :)

  • Lovely video

  • Great video as always Peter, some great clips. Hope to see you again in my Subscriptions box soon, until then, goodbye. :)

  • m/c everytime Pete

  • Hi Peter :) Hope you had a wonderful day :D

  • Subject of music is always a favorite, what you use to like as a child, as its grown over the years and what you like now. Everyones opinion is different which makes every video unique and it'll be nice to see your views :)
