Telling it all 31

[HerMajestyTheLlama]

That song makes me want a huge feather bed. Oh my.

[IWantLandingSnow]

John Denver :D

[brian09876543]

I know it's almost a cliche' but I truly wish you were my own granddad. Hope you're doing well Peter!

[brian09876543]

"I dunno... maybe I need psychological counseling over the matter." haha

Peter I love your videos.  Love the stories.

[inkstersco]

You're right. A bed can only be worth so much. No bed should ever cost over fifty pounds.

[sumguijim]

This "Geezer", is more valued on YouTube that the likes of you ever will be!

[cosine303]

oh dear. ironic your posting such comments, perhaps you need to get a life first, as you probably troll youtube a lot trolling and generally writing s... .. in short, do something positive with your life.

[jo3jackson]

Show some respect child!

[jeremygregersen]

sad thing is hes 26 years old, his parents should have had an abortion

[Evilgidgit]

Someone drop a piano on his head.

[MomonaMama]

I can't watch this and just click away.

Sir, your recollections make me feel both fond nostalgia and mad sadness! I'm so sorry about you moving to the smaller room, because I know why you moved. It's a good thing, but a sad thing.

You are a treasure.

[mgturbo1300]

nice weather we have been having lately

it's all about george

[mikepetersingapore]

Dear Peter...

I am fascinated by your stories & I am recommending them to my children. You truly have the ability to link "old and new", "past and present" and bridge 'generation gaps'. Please continue sharing your experiences with us, Michael

[gunzgirl85]

Hello,

I have just subscribed to Youtube after watching some of you're videos, just so I could always find them!

The type of bed you described from you're childhood is the exact same I have now, minus the feather mattress. My bed is 3/4, metal framed, wooden spindled head and footboard with a spring that is sagging. I have had it for many years..although I'm only 21.

[qazwas2001]

For the same reason people watch videos of dogs falling asleep.

[qazwas2001]

(sinicalscripts uploaded a video of a dog falling asleep)

[Rodgers54]

hahah best comment ever

[mugwye]

NOTHING YOU HAVE TO TELL!

[mgturbo1300]

LOL!

[antbrawler]

If you find him boring then why watch? Personally i think hes great =D

[briteness]

Your feeling of wanting to stay out of shops is a sure sign of sanity.

[BxDisciple1]

he seems very nice but goddamn hes booooooring

[PlanetNanny]

I just wanted to thank you for bring this song back into my memory. My Grandma used to sing this song to her grand kids on camping trips. She died when I was 12, and I had forgotten this song. Hearing it brought back so many wonderful memories. Thanks again, and I just think your videos are wonderful.

[Peacenibbles]

You're sexy.

[AdamConnolly]

Excellent Vids Peter. Makes me proud to be British! Keep up the outstanding work.

Adam

[zzarnticolz]

Hi man have you heard about the internet? You can buy beds on there you know.

[amy1313]

You are so great! I think you would be (are) a great grandpa!!

[GameHacker101]

I used to share my bed with my sisters until 2nd grade. I didn't mind sleeping with them until I finally found out what it is like to sleep without any leg contact! LOL! I'm never sleeping with them again.

[cytcwrweiru]

that is very close to sounding perverted

[soulpatrol2007]

love the beginning song, great story yet again, I kow many of us relate, funny stuff in here, you have some great memories filled with love, you're such a noble good-hearted person. I love you lots.

[gmax187]

Sir, I hope that when I am older I am as willing to speak as you are. you truely add to youtube, thank you.

[KaiserBun]

Good work!

[IconOfSin88]

This is awsome stuff, I find listening to you relaxing and comforting - two things I need after a week on some rocky and icy island somewhere in the gulf of Finland. (The military can sometimes be tough on it's soldiers.)

Thank you for this one, I'll be checking back next weekend after another week on some damned, slippery rock.

[Huckit]

BORING

[angeleiz13]

your family is truly fortunate and blessed that you are giving them these memories. many people can only wish that their grandparents had left such a touching history. thanks for sharing.

[celcaz]

I like you a lot. If I lived near you, I know we'd be friends.

[Oskir1945]

Hello Peter, nice stories, according to me you have to sell it because will be a best seller over the world like "Harry Potter".

Have a nice day.

[Sharpblue]

I can so relate to this... I hate shopping also. I can't wait to get out of shops.

[xlynx9]

same here. and I hate salesmen coming to "help" me with my decision.

[Biddle22]

I can totally relate. I have an enormous fear about shopping. Glad it's not just me... lol

[xMissxWayx]

Dear God. My grandmother played that song last weekend... bizarre memories have just flooded back to me. But keep it coming, Peter. x

[no1satthedisco]

very awesome!

so i take it peter's back?

why did he leave us for a while

[MLViscool]

I love the stories, Peter!!! Keep the coming! =)

[thedall]

I'd really love there to be a recorded audio/podcast of this stuff. It would be ideal when I fancy listening to Peter without turning my computer on. Is something like this already available?

[rob234111]

lol, I wish I could sleep in a feather bed, but I get inchy and hives when I do... :S lol good!

[linkinparkrule]

Hey everyone would ye check out my Corduroy. There a band from Ieland and they are really good, so if you have time give them a look

[Venus50]

Hi Peter~~Say, have you ever heard of the North Platte Canteen? My Mom and Dad spent one day working at the North Platte Canteen when they were just dating; they belonged to a group called Rural Youth of America. Good blog material. Good book~~Once Upon a Town by Bob Greene. Love the bed shopping story! :-)

[Slash01]

Thanks we like your stories :)

[tubingOut]

do you do your own vido editing? i am impressed... i can't even do half of the stuff you do... and i am 28 :(

[ochrisooo]

but hes got a lot of time on his hands

[richardmarcj]

You provide imporant and essential insight into lives of a generation that many of us have limited conact with. Thank you for your stories!

[EggYolk]

you started back up, and now I'm like 20 something behind..

[DevilDante27]

Great video!

[ollie7777]

great as ussual peter! :)

[SickForTheCure]

"that can have its uses" my my peter what are you implying, good video though, welld one once again

[bugs091]

I'm with you. Shopping is a horrid experience. Great video. Thanks for sharing!

[Fi5hB8]

We have one of those old stoves in our house, with the sliding latch.

[MrNishi]

Thanks peter, yet another fine webcast, I always enjoy your stories as i have little or no contact with people your age and find your stories very interesting

[odaki]

you'll be like what you just said when you reach 50. good luck.

[mattd28]

Nice story thanks for posting Peter,

Matt

[Iciceberg]

I saw you making stupid hate comments before. Man go play in traffic you queer little fuck. Hopefully they'll run over your ass so it'll crush your brain.

[Venus50]

I C Iceberg- DUDE, were you on the titanic or something? Chill out already. And get that chip off you iceberg dude!

[sddogtrainer]

Thanks Peter. I dread shopping too - and I'm female and everyone assumes women like to shop. Not this one. Thanks to the internet I get most of what I need online. Might be tough to buy a bed that way - but if it can be done that's what I'd do!

[peterankr]

I just love your sall tidbits from life. Keep on! I guess you do not have a moveable camera, - but maybe you could tell stories based on different items you have collected trough you life? keep up the good work!

[Spitfire67]

That old iron bed will last a lot longer than these new mdf ones. I remember them paraffin heaters to I guess they were popular cos they had an advert for the fuel "esso blue" on T.V

[LonelyComic33]

Hey there, love your vids check out my channel if you get a chance!

[blueperiod]

very nice.

[Orleans11]

Am I the only one that finds it hysterical that he has a Pink Floyd poster behind him?! Rock on brother :D

[badgerdot]

Yes but if you consider that he will have only been in his 40s when the Floyd were popular. I suppose that people will laugh at me when I am his age, as at the age of 45 I love the Arctic Monkeys

[Orleans11]

As a fellow Pink Floyd fan, and particularly a fan of that era of music, I'll be listening to Pink Floyd, Cat Steven, James Taylor and the like forever. Hopefully until I'm 65 as well.

[bronyraurstomp]

I THOUGHT I SAW THAT!!!

[charpyrenees]

Lovely story on a simple but very important subject.

[hoguspocus]

Very nice; your stories are always thoroughly enjoyable.

[latequartet]

Peter, thanks, I have had a 1920s sofa remade with feathers and am often tempted to go and sleep on that. Since my wife left me six years ago, I found sleeping in the 'regular' bed always rather strange, so a feather chaise longue sort of thing is a handy occasional comfort.

[mattyv4292]

I just got the November 13th issue of TIME magazine, and you're on the headline of the YouTube section because YouTube was invention of the year.

It's the November 13th issue of TIME magazine, page 64. Check it out.

[ladymaddy]

Your bedtime story was quite nice. I slept on the iron beds with the open springs when I was a child; they were from the 1900's. Children sleep the sleep of innocents.

[Ripperanewa]

All things come full circle in life sort of a deja vu story. Thanks for another great story of the human condition.

[lobojo]

Hello Peter. You have my love & support.

[nienna67]

Another delightful tale. Seeing your vlogs is like visiting with an old friend and hanging out, sharing stories. I lift my hot chocolate on a rainy morning in oregon in a toast to you, Sir. Keep 'em coming. :-)

nienna from oregon usa

[CarlisleCockney]

That is a really wonderful view.

[badhands22]

you know if a video is over 5 mins I usually aviod them but ,geriatric1927, yours are always easy to follow and very funny.10 mins seems like a few seconds.

[anggebliemli]

Peter, I like your English. It's exactly how we learned at school 60 years ago. By the way: they called it "King' English".

[anggebliemli]

Great as usual, Peter. Such a good idea to build a bridge from choosing a bed today to the beds of your (our) childhood.

[ultimatedude1]

Man I cant believe this guy is a youtube celebrityl. Awesome man.

[LairdRB]

Currently living in a small travel trailer. Your story convinced me to continue to store my household goods so I don't have to re buy things like beds.

[groovytimes]

Keep up the stories! :)

[TubularBelle]

Can I ask why you didn't feel comfortable anymore in the big comfortable room with the nicest view? I am assuming you missed your wife. My Mum got rid of her new double bed after my step dad passed away and moved into the small bedroom with the single bed. Love your chats.

Tracy.

[PDValentine]

Peter, you are wonderful.

[holdinguk]

another fine vid :)

keep it up

[Venus50]

Ah, there does come a time when parents decide there are certain things boys must do separately and not together. For my first two boys, it was bathtime. After one lost part of a tooth because of the other smashing his head on the bottom of the tub, tub time together ended. LOL! They were loads younger though. Like 4 and 6. Love the shopping story. Don't know of any men who enjoy shopping Peter; I guess that's a womens sport.

[jogmaher]

Id love more stories Peter, I lay back, closed my eyes & really enjoyed both of them, MORE PLEASE !!!! lol God Bless Pal

[hudgeliberal]

Back to the real life situations..I like them much better than the stories(although they were entertaining)...good job as always Pete.

[tlg847]

A delightful episode, Peter. Both stories poignant and funny, a growing hallmark, really, of your work.

As for the psychological counseling for your shopping "phobia," a pro would say it seems like you've managed just fine when it comes to the things you care about (what kind of video card was that, again?)

[Momotaro15]

Hey Peter! Loved your choice of music. I am from Colorado, and had the privilege of meeting and knowing John Denver. He really was a wonderful person. Grandma's feather bed! My husband laughs at me, because I sleep with pillows all around me as if I'm sleeping in a feathered nest! It feels so comfy and gives one a feeling of security. Thanks for your wonderful memory!

[solorguy]

Well that brings back memories! Must get the wife to listen to this soon, she still remembers rolling to the center of the bed, also if you slept with gran ma and pa. you ended up in the middle with the cover high above you and the cold air coming down you! Very funny, have not thought of that in years.

[AuntLissa53]

xoxoxo

[cierrablue]

Peter. You warm my heart.

[emopope]

Peter rocks!!!

[geezerart]

Very interesting! Thanks again Peter!

Gene & Freida (Mr. & Mrs. GeezerArt)

[madwebby28]

"THRASH ABOUT" you little dark horse. lol :)

[basarabz]

Hello from the USA! Your videos are inspiring, informitive and truely entertaining! Keep it up friend!!!

[nbChris]

NOO!! I Cant get past 5 mins 34 seconds, What else did you say???

[gatebee]

Peter lovely bedroom window. Buying a bed and a mattress can be a very tiring and exhauting afair. I think they are too costly. Keep on vloging please.

Thank you

gb

[jellybeansies]

your so cute.

[jayess]

I hope you've resolved your computer problems. By the quality of the video, it appears that you have.

[threeheadedbaby]

I loved that story.Mama tells a story of her brothers and her going under the bed with a candle looking for a mouse and setting the feather mattress on fire. Mummy had to put it out and all were in trouble for ever.Thanks for that memory.Love you. Deborah

[MusicManInSC]

Good Grief!! Growing up at your house must have been a life or death situation! I've heard of having hot times in the sack, but THIS gives it a new meaning...!

[totos1dot]

Well done, Peter. Thanks for entertaining us. Enjoy every vlog and the music to go along with the story is excellent.

[ImAlwaysR1ght]

Bed prices seem very expensive over there in England. I got a King Sized bed for with mattress for everything 250 dollars.

[GreekCallas]

Must not be a very good one.

[ImAlwaysR1ght]

It is. Bed don't cost very much where I live.

[ImAlwaysR1ght]

Beds*** typo

[GreekCallas]

Hmm perhaps I was ripped off. Lol.

[ImAlwaysR1ght]

lol. It probably depends on where you live. I live in Southern IL.

[coralgarden]

This video was sad for me. You missed your wife so much that you could no longer sleep in the same room.

[superman56]

the view from your room is amazing

i LOVE listening to your awesome stories

[Capslock17]

Are you using a new camera?

[oneiblind30]

I Love the view from your room! It's beautiful!

[melody41]

crikey. I remember the ceiling pattern from the valor stove.

[mycre]

Peter -

The bed people do have us by the . . . as we all do need to sleep. Beds here in America cost thousands of dollars. Many are high tech - space materials, adjustable air bags, etc. Oh well, I guess that we need to get some geese and start plucking . . .

Peter

[samsarajade]

You bought a very posh bed! You are hilarious Peter-you're little observations! Incredible wit ;) I love these anecdotes very much! :)

[killerclair]

I love listening to your stories. They make my day that much brighter. Just as a side note, I am an only child, so I have always had my own bed. However, my mother has 9 sisters and 3 brothers. When she was growing up there were only 4 rooms in their house, so she had to share a room with 4 of her sisters. I have heard many stories of their bed and how they would fight over it and push each other out sometimes in the middle of the night.

[Jessyca423]

When I got married we had a 3/4 bed with a flock mattress and yes moving together in the middle does have its uses heheh (memories)

[faintstarlite]

I'm quite curious about what a feather bed would be like.

[DrFr4g]

The cheesy opening affects wouldn't work with any other youtuber! :P

Nice one Peter.

[threeheadedbaby]

I don't understand what's cheesy about it. Please explain if you will. Thank you DrFr4g.

[DrFrag]

All the intros to his videos use pre-made animations. Normally, I would complain. However, it really suits G'27, causing me to compliment him *thumbs up*

[justanotherg]

lol very funny lol

[Lars90]

Shopping isnt my Deal either :P

[SSanf]

I just love your videos. Please, never stop!

[iheartslug]

Brothers are meanies! I have a foam mattress. I love it. It's squishy and comfy. Bye geriatric!

[ST1FFLER]

Great story, love your videos. Take good care of yourself

[theundergroundpress]

You are the best story teller ever!

Jason

[lobi89]

It was wonderful to listen to you again, Peter... Thank you.

[2oobwatcher]

My older sister and I shared the same bed as very young children. Later, when our younger brother was about a year or so old she would convince mom to let him sleep with us, he was her substitute for a doll. I wasn't happy about sharing my space and would have gladly thrown him out if I'd been able. We all survived and actually still love each other. Great memories. ☺

[dukesplain]

What a wonderful way to start the day with one of your videos. I am so glad to see you posting. I think you are my favourite channel on Youtube. Loved the story about beds. The sagging beds and matresses of my youth, already about 20 years old by the time they got to me. Wonderful stories, and thanks for bringing back some memories of my own. Love your work. Keep it up.

[Webwych]

I'm still loving your stories :).  Have you ever tried buying a fitted sheet for a 3-quarter bed? Nightmare! Hahah

[darkain71]

Glad you're back. I missed your videos. Enjoy the new bed!

[doxielady24]

I have slept on a feather bed. It was quite comfortable, but unfortunately the is also when we foudn out I am terribly allergic to feathers!

[guyyouseeonstreet]

Nice intro with John Denver. Good to hear from you again Pete.

[scrumsrus]

LoL Be carefull not to pee the bed Peter, you don't want rusty springs. LoL I dislike shopping as well come to that I don't know a man that does.

Health & Happiness

Regards

ScrumsRus

(Andy)

[robyie]

You're so sweet! It's rare that I have the time to watch your videos because they tend to be long but when I do I enjoy it so much! In fact, I'm less than 3 minutes into this one and adore you more already!

[petera20]

just started watching your videos love listerning to your stories

[RAW1939]

Again, your word pictures are enthralling! You are so right about we older people remembering the cost of things when we were younger and being shocked by prices now. Also like you, after my late wife passed away, I moved into a smaller bedroom and turned the master bedroom into a visitors room. Thanks for the memories!

[Nimahan]

When I was little I used to share a room with my sister (separate beds). And for some reason I remember once waking up in her bed and her waking up in mine not knowing how that happened.

Did you not go to any fireworks displays this weekend, then?

[turnermedman]

it seems i have known you since forever. keep well

[ace1800]

Great blog peter!

[Weshes12]

Good one, you are very funny and your stories are a treasure. Keep it up and we will enjoy!

Best Weshes

ps - How about a little led next time for the opener?

[MattMystrieo]

OOOO director now?

[tousledkitten]

Loving the stories. I don't think you need counselling for hating shopping. The anxiety seems pretty normal. Thank you for a window on a generation I no longer have in my real life.

[Gameluxflamer0nicksn]

Great video as always! :)

[Tahllulah]

Peter, you are truly blessed with that view! Love your story about buying a bed. And loved John Denver - I used to sing that song to my children...

[mathproblems]

Nice view and story

[hkghost]

nice image... very nice indeed. =D
