  • I think its great to see an older person who can work a computer haha well done =]

  • I look forward to when you tell us why you stopped telling all the newspapers to get lost. I wonder which video that will be?

  • GOOD TO SEE YOU PETER.

  • Yeah! Rock on!

  • live long.

  • Learn to spell...then maybe people will respect your opinion.

  • I find his tone of voice relaxing

  • Please dont be sad:(

  • very sad people are saying that about mike..he must be a very good friend..so to mike and to you peter AKA grandad much love from Ontario Canada

  • Emotional but oh so kind!!

  • That was lovely

  • Isn't it nice to have a TRUE FRIEND? It's not surprising that someone would want to do all that for you. You are a good person and I'm sure Mike enjoys helping you. Don't listen to the negative people.

  • I think it is somehow a strange phenomenon of the internet for people to invent all sorts of "conspiracy" theories. Perhaps the efforts of some at anonymity make others distrustful of everyone or maybe it's their own dishonesty on the net coming through? I am glad to hear you have a good friend to help you manage all of this. I haven't watched in a while - I'm playing catch-up there, so I didn't realize what a "celebrity" you'd become. :) You are delightful and a good friend as well.

  • you fucking rock man !

    I bet its a english accent

    but sound Irish to me !

    IRISH FOREVER ^$F!

  • Sounds like you have yourself a great friend there, Peter. Glad to hear it.

  • can i just say, most of the people who accuse other people of being gay are only covering up their own sexuality.

  • Don't worry about jealous people.

  • I fell in sleep while i watch this...

  • I dont get it..it was so boring but I was entertained in some weird way. This guys Magic.

  • keep your chin up Peter. I do not get the chance to watch all your videos, but when I do, I really enjoy them. :)

  • Some of your blogs are kinda boring, but some of them are pretty amazing :) Keep up the blogging. after a hard day at work your blogs are comforting whether they're boring or not.

  • Don't listen to what those people say! You have and are a one of a kind friend! Sending you many warm thoughts and good vibes! Keep up the great work!

  • What a great friend you have, who cares what other people say... they are idiots who dont deserve your or Mike's attention. Sounds like they are jealous of his relationship wit you... dont let the 'man' get you down!! Lov your blogs by the way...

  • I love you!

  • What the hell are you talking about? Who cares if you talk to somone more than other people? Who gives a rats ass? Its youtube not High School.

  • aww you got quite emotional.. Its ok we all trust and believe what you say and to be honest not too many people know this thing that made mike hurt...so really he shouldnt worry

  • How does this turn out to be a secret? Its more of a statement.

  • Life can be very cruel sometimes thats why we all need good friends. : )

  • Peter

    Your not seeking notoriety is commendable. Its part of what makes you an original. Your real in what you do and say!!! Taking time to defend a friend is wonderful. Keep on talking we are listening and learning.

  • keep going Mike! well said Peter.

  • Well said, Peter. Your friends must be very lucky to have your friendship.

  • omg such a soulful person, he almost cried!

  • Great Blog from one of your fans

  • I truly enjoy listening to you share stories of your life and friendships. You are an amazing person. And a wonderful friend to all. Your heart is huge and genuine. I'm thankful that you are here on YouTube! Most sincerely,~Moonchime

  • Hi Peter,

    I don't comment very often as I see you have your hands full as it is with many fans!! However, I really did enjoy this video and wanted to let you know that.

    Friendship is a wonderful thing....and you are a wonderful person.

    Cheers my friend!!

  • stfu

  • Aww that was so touching at the end talking about your friendship with Mike. It's really nice to have friends like that. :)

  • I think it is awesome that you set the record straight for your friend. And I love the qoute "heart as soft as a meringue" LOL That is to cute!As always a wonderful video and please do not let people on here were not taught manors distract you or your friend. People hide on here under screennames way to much.

  • Thanks Peter I had no idea.Tell Mike im sorry the jerks hurt him.

  • Most of us understand... unfortunately there are always going to be people like that on this site. He sounds like a good friend to me!

  • people can be cruel Peter, best advice to your friend is to ignore the idiots, he seems a genuinely nice guy.

  • no, he's genuine. On the other hand, you appear to be a fake.

  • hahahahaha.... im getting to know youre fascinating personality....

  • you are great that you speak so good from your friend. In this community are a lot people without creativity and ideas, they can only insult others... dont listen to them. Peter, go on with your work and look to your health, so we can listen more from you.

  • You are great geriatric! I am sorry your friend was hurt! Mike sounds like a super person and a good friend!!!!

  • Attend to yourself as much as you need to, Peter. You have no obligation to us, but you have obligation to yourself.

  • You're a gem! And a bloody good bloke by the sound of you Mate :-)

  • You are such a Super Guy Peter, no one in their right mind could dislike you, so there!!!! You put a smile on everyone's face and you are a dear person. Don't ever quit.

  • Peter,

    I enjoy your videos so much and I also subscribe to Argent009. He is a really good person with a good heart. Both of you are Jewels on YouTube.

  • Even big ole tough guys have feelings and it's real that you care enough to stand up for your friend. Funny how the older we get the more we'll take for our friends and the less we'll take from them.

  • You are an amazing man Peter... I think the friendship you guys share is remarkable considering that Argent is in the states and you are in the UK. Dont let the naysayers say anything different Mike has a lot of good in his heart and he is trying to save the YT community.

  • YES, I think that money should not be apart of youtube

  • you rule, i watched up until 29 and got bored. but came back the last 2 videos and remembered why I like you... i think its more the always 10 minute videos that keeps me from having watched them all...

  • Those people are just idiots and not worth anything, tell mike to ignore them cause they are failures and not worth the time. And i hope he is feeling better soon.

  • You are a genuinely nice man, Peter. I hope you don't get tired of hearing that. I'm glad you have found a good friend, from what I've seen he is a nice guy!

    :]

  • there are still some good people in this world and i hope that he is sincere to you. GOOD FRIEND THOUGH!!!

  • You are lovely. Don't feel bad about your friend. The fact you have given him this support will mean a lot to him. It's good he's helping you too. YouTube is a typical community - full of good and not so good people.

  • i really do appreciate that you answer all the mail you get =) and i really like how you stand up for your friends!

  • Gosh, Peter, I wish you were younger!

    I would marry you on the spot, honestly.

  • Quite right Peter! I don't know you or Mike, but I also have a friend called Mike and I'm sure he would help me out with stuff for nothing just like I would because that's what friends are for. The people making all these disturbing statements about YOUR FRIEND Mike probably never had friends of their own and don't understand this basic concept. Sad really (for them). Ignore them Peter.

  • Pete, Mike needs to understand that the sort of people that would think in such a twisted way are not worth worrying about. Just because they think in that way does not mean that we all do. They can go to hell! Crack on Mike and Pete.

  • You're a good man, Peter.

  • he does gain from being your friend, Geriatric. namely valuable publicity on youtube. It is human nature to desire attention. it's not a negative thing

  • People will say anything, you just have to TRY to ignore it. I'm sorry he was hurt,as are you as his friend. People don't care, they are cowards. Who has time to mess with other people? How sad.

  • You are so cute, Geriatric. And such a delightful person to watch on YouTube. I hope you have big plans for Christmas and of course, Boxing Day. =D I do know a bit about British Holidays. ;] --//xo;Ace

  • Great vid, u remind me of my grandpa! Only he does magic.

  • (clap clap clap) another great Video !!

  • He gains a friend!

  • Hi Mr. Popularity, you're no geriatric! you are a strong robust gentleman: age is only a state of mind. Try Tai-chi you'll keep even younger! I can see you'll be embarking on many wonderful adventures! such a pleasure to listen and see you! For your friend Mike maybe he could try Reiki healing. Wishing you so much Love...

  • Peter you are amazing, I know everyone says it but you truly are, you are a great friend to Mike and vice versa, for him to make a website for you and look after it shows he cares about you :o) I love your videos Peter keep them coming I always like watching them!

  • Why do so many people assume that just because someone is helping someone else, and that someone's being nice to someone, that they have to be out to get something from the deal? ...these, in my oppinion, have to be people that dont actually have any REAL friends, because thats what real friends do... they help people... just plainly cos they WANT to!! - ah well, there will always be the idiots in the community wont there - keep it up peter :)

  • Agree totally...

  • I thought this guy passed away. Or am I mixing him up with someone else?

  • Nah, you're just mixed up...

  • different guy

  • you're thinking of Martin.

  • wtf dude, maybe you should do your research before posting a comment like that...its pretty disrespectful.

  • I didn't mean it to be disrespectful at all. I am sorry if it came across that way to the OVP. No mean intent.

  • Ah, good boy! Apologies are gratefully accepted then. Tis The Season you know...

    Thom

  • aww np dude. Now I feel bad that I spazzed out like that =( I shouldve phrased my comment differently so in that respect i'm sorry; I was rude.

    Its just that its kind of an awkward question to ask you know, especially on the gentlemen's video. But whatever, its all good; mistakes happen, we move on. Again, i'm sorry for how I lashed out at you; that was uncalled for.

  • You're a Legend mate

  • There are people out there who will try and cash in on other peoples fame. Mike is obviously not one of those people, anyone who can not see that is shallow.

  • love you very much. I choke up like that too. thanks for continuing to talk with us all. don't have to respond to me just glad you're still there

  • your youtube community will help spread the word that Peter and Mike are the real deal. cheers.

  • Your so humble and kind Grandpa Peter, got my wisdom's out a couple weeks ago and you were right it was nothing to be scared of.

    love you!

  • What a wonderful friend you are Peter, and likewise Mike. Always on the internet there are people who always think there's a hidden agenda behind everything, including friendships that started long before the haters were probably born. Just let it slide right off your back guys, they're not worth your spit.

  • Some people are so cruel.

    Some people just cant understand others doing kindness for others with no benefit to themselves, because some people are so utterly selfish and inhumane.

  • Do people not realise that you wouldn't talk to him if you didn't want to? You're an intelligent man and I'm fairly sure you wouldn't suffer fools gladly. Best regards to him and, as ever, good video. Glad you found genuine friends on YT :-) You obviously care about him a lot, hope he ignores the haters.

  • So what if he wants a bit of attention, people on youtube want attention when the do web-blogs. get over it.

  • nice one peter

  • This was a tremendously graceful and courteous message. Thank you for sharing. Though I have paid no mind towards, nor even was aware of, any negative remarks - this stil held a tremendous sense of validity to me. I always enjoy each of your virtual 'visits'. Thanks again.

  • Mike always struck me as a very caring and genuine man, much like you, Peter. It doesnt surprise me that he has such a good friend in you.

     Peace to you, Patti pi

  • cool

  • Thank you Peter. (can't type, big tough wrestler guy too busy crying)

  • wuss

  • haha

  • Argent, you are too too funny! Thanks for being YOU..

  • awwwwwwww. see peter, of course he's not mad...

  • Keep up the good work. Everyone appreciates you contributions. With age comes wisdom. And you ARE a pretty smart man. Mike knows how to take care of himself. I am sure that he loves the friendship that he shares with you. The complainers? Hey, thats just what people do sometimes. You are a source of enjoyment.

  • You are a good friend & a good human, Peter. Take care & look forward to more.

  • Mike seems like one hell of a friend.I wish you both the best and hope your friendship continues to grow.I'm sure it will.Take care and TFPosting.

  • Why worry what anyone thinks? Live you life as you see fit and to hell with what people think. Most judgemental people are nothing but hippocrites who are jealous and afraid to live their live free. I could care less what anyone thinks about me. I live my life according to my rules and no one else. BUCK FUSH

  • You are so genuine it is unbelieveable, this is why we can't get enough of you, i shall now go to mike and let him know that not every one feels this way, take care, you are a gem

  • god bless you, your an excellent man

  • No-one should take rude people seriously. They are pathetic and they know it, so just tell Mike to ignore them because they want to hurt, but sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me.

    Your great, and people like you give YouTube a quality that is precious

  • YOU are the most awesome gentleman on You Tube, and you made me cry you bugger. I look forward to watching Mikes videos and getting to know him. I'm sure you both have the intelligence to be able to reject the 'haters' but you also have the heart to still be hurt by it and for that I am truly sorry. Keep your chin up me darling

  • My career as a public school teacher has taught me many things, but the constant thought that crosses my mind as I look back over those 30 years is how selfish many young people can and do become.  Many think that the world "owes" them something, and are willing to steal outright if they haven't the willingness to try in the first place to achieve. It's sad, but that is reality, and we have lost the gift of respecting those who genuinely care about what goes on in the world.

  • You are a great person. :)

  • you are god!

  • When you have love you will do foolish things in the eyes of those who don't. I fear that many don't understand kind people like you and Mike who have a geniun concern for others.

  • Very well said, I can't stand the low life that comment badly on the videos that you do. They don't need to watch your videos and making it crap for the rest of us.

  • idk i like your videos you talk very well unlike my self and i think itd be a good idea for you to go on the tele and be a figure head for the older generation to get them more active in the net and computers in general

  • I agree with patd...while I understand that you are just doing all this for fun,but I hope that you would consider maybe doing a little television or radio. Just to encourage the older generation to give the net and computers in general a try. Of couse,if you dont wish to..that is fine as well. Keep em coming Pete.

  • Very well said! Take care and don't worry. God bless you!

  • You and Mike are both great guys, just tell Mike to ignore the low-lifes who make these claims.

  • Completely unrelated Peter, but Tim Berners-Lee from England (the inventor of the internet) has just defended google's decision to censor the internet in China on some documentary.

  • There are evil people out there...but like I have said before, the more gentle wonderful souls far out number those terrible people. Both you and Mike are nice people, and the majority of us love you both and enjoy your videos.  Place more value on the good! Love ya! (oh..please don't cry!)

  • Watching this made my eyes moisten. You're such a sweetie.

  • Peter, Having watched Mike's videos I can see that he is always looking out for others who are picked on. I also appreciate his amazing knowledge of computers and the internet. You've got a good friend as he has in you. People will be people good and bad. Unfortunately it seems to be magnified on YT. Take care.

  • Some people are just stupid and want to make things up in order to "be somebody." You and Mike have a beautiful friendship, and YouTube is a HOBBY, not a moneymaking venture! Why can't people understand that? Dolts. Consider this Enstein quote applicable to you and Mike: "Great spirits have always received violent opposition from mediocre minds." Miserable souls can never ruin the light of true friendship. Let's all carry on! Lots of love to both you and Mike.

  • It must be a real honour to be your freind Peter. I'm just very glad I get to see you now and again on You Tube.

    Ray

  • Peter is a very good friend. All you have to do is treat him well and stay in semi-regular communication, and you're pretty much "in".

  • It's unfortunate that the evolution of our society has lead us to the point where we automatically question someone's kindness.

  • You are a true friend to Mike. Really sad to see some people has upset you so much Peter. Keep a stiff upper lip and all. From one soldier to another I salute your honesty and wish I had a friend still around like you.

    Rgds,

    Logan

  • hope it all works out, take care, and try not to get upset by it.

  • Peter, with everyone in the world able to get on YouTube, there are going to be lovely people and not so lovely people. There is no built in insulation against meanness. Move on proudly my friend, you do a lot of good and have many friends.

  • Just don't listen to such negative comments. Some people will just say things and they put no thought behind them. It's really a shame that people are so thoughtless and rude. If you can just forget about it and hopefully such bad comments wont happen again.

  • Peter, you and Mike seem to have a solid bond. I hope that he realizes that people on here can be very fickle and envious in which results into them saying hurtful things. I think the both of you should just continue with the things that make you happy and ignore the more ignorant of the community.

  • Hi Peter,

    I'm sorry to hear that the rude people on YouTube have made both your day, and Mike's day, so bad.

    You are a TRUE friend to Mike, as he is to you, which is worthy of a ton of respect.

    If anyone gives you crap about this video, just keep in mind that you have completely impressed at least one person (me!).

    Chin up!

  • I think people who are suspicious of others' motives are, themselves, shallow and opportunistic, and therefore can't believe in pure, selfless intentions. You're sweet, Peter, someone who values true friendship. Take care.

  • That is so true well put.

  • That is so true, You couldn't have put it better

  • Peter -

    No one could hope for a better friend than you.

    Peter

  • Friends. I wish there were more of them in the world. Unfortunately there

    are always people wanting something and wanting something for nothing.

    I still don't know why many people need to be this way...

  • Lack of time..Yeah, I know what you mean. I wish I had more time for fun :(

  • lovely video Peter, your a very good friend. Take care

  • Sir,

    When I first went on to the internet, I'd go to chat rooms to be with people who like the same things I do. Once in a while, we'd get what we called "trolls" ... people who are mean-spirited, shallow, nasty or otherwise fools. We found the best way to deal with trolls is to ignore them.

    Just know we care about you and Mike and I just hope that these trolls don't ruin your day.

    Thank you for your stand-up video for your friend.

  • I agree with Nienna. Those people are not worth your time. A lot of the time they are just random folks who take pleasure in making fun of others, and giving them any sort of attention only fuels them. You have a LOT more people who respect you than who troll you.

  • Hi, Nienna--

    So far, I have one troll/hater.  from watching ONE video (out of 53) he's concluded that I'm fat (which I've never hidden), unemployed (not true-- I'm a self-employed writer), and stupid (which is impossible, since I'm in college), and that I "inhale fast food left and right" (not true-- my mom's food fills me up well enuff).

    Still, he makes me laugh. So I did the worst thing you could do to a hater-- I *subbed* to him, and invited all my subbers to do the same. :)

    Henrik

  • Absolutely great idea!

  • I dont know who Mike is but that was a nice thing to do.

  • I hate to see you so upset about this kind of thing Peter...

    All the best & i hope these problems do not persist into the future.

    Regards,

    Sam

  • Your so great.

     Love ya peter!! <3

  • No need to be afraid of the rating. This would definitely be a five star video.

  • absolutely right on.

  • JAKE.

  • my friend, you seem like such a genuine character. its quite appropriate that you loving the you tube community, have given so much back to those who seem you appreciate.i hope that we could also become good friends.

  • It's nice of you to make a vid about something that shouldn't require any response at all. Some people just can't believe that anyone would do something for another person without expecting to derive a benefit for themselves. I suspect they're just projecting their own character onto others, which is never a smart thing to do.

  • Why are you chatting with some Youtuber guy?!

  • Integrity is such a beautiful sight to see. Well said Peter!

  • Mike has always been very generous with his time helping me with any questions I have about anything and I appreciate all the help he has given me.

    I know he is a very good man and anyone who questions his motives can just go fly a kite..

  • Great video!

  • Mike definitely has a good heart! You are a very good friend to adress these issues that are troubling him.

    Take care, Peter!

  • This made me shed a tear, very good viewing. Now if only i could 5-star it...

  • The thing that (some) people forget is that you really don't need extreme physicality here. All you need is a way to run a computer and some kind of video editor.

    Mike's a great guy. If he needs my help, he's got it. The same goes for you, Peter, as well as anyone else who asks. :)

  • That's a nice offer. Thank you so much!

  • Peter- It breaks my heart to know that vicious individuals are questioning/attacking one of your relationships. George Washington is recorded as stating "I can never think of promoting my convenience at the expense of a friend's interest and inclination." Big hugs to both you and Mike.

  • From the names I recognize on this site - I wonder if some have ever put a positive comment because all I see from them are evil... they are truly insecure. Peter, you are my inspiration and Argent009 is too.

  • well done Peter! some people try to make conspiracy theories where there is no foul play at all! well done for defending Mike - a true friend!

  • Perer, wonderful post. Most people do not understand what the meaning of a true friendship is. I have always said that if you have one true friend in your lifetime, you are fortunate. All the best...Happy Holidays

  • Friends help friends. Who is anyone else to judge a relationship that doesn't even involve them? Too bad fame comes at a cost... however, through your and Mike's infamy on YouTube, the world is a better place. Thank you for paying that price and feeling that some of us are worth it to you personally. Sandy

  • This was a wonderful thing to do, Peter, and you are a beautiful soul.

  • Great video, Peter. You're a nice man!

  • YOUR AWESOME!!!

  • spoken like a true english gentleman..long may you last.

  • Thank you so much for sharing your secret friendship truths. For me it seems absolutely logical that you two guys are best friends, you both are awesome and i subscribed to both of you a long time ago. Right to step in when a friend is being hurt.

  • Mike is lucky to have you as a friend.

  • Great post. I discovered Mike's channel recently and have subscribed and think he's a great resource for YouTube and a great guy. Thanks for setting the record straight.

  • Fools are those who suggest friendships are impossible over the internet!

  • I have found a lot of new friends via the net.

  • absolutely!!!

  • me too! :)

  • I never doubted the authenticity of your friendship. But then I frequent your website and I have got to know Mike through there rather than through Youtube. Not that I really know him, but I have an idea of his motivations and his nature, and they are all good.

  • very touching sir

  • you are a truely wonderful person Peter...how lucky you and Mike are to be a friend to one another...many hugs to you. Deborah

  • Well said sir, you are a true friend to Mike and he to you. The trolls and naysayers are miserable creatures who do all these things to bring people down to their level to keep them company and I am glad to see people standing up to them.
