Trading Van Life For Bus Life?!!
Lazy is sat in the dark because the Christmas tree is giving her feels. She’s checking out Black Friday deals and seeing that everything she bought six weeks ago is now half price. She tried to be organised and it throws it back in her face. She has shared deals on Instagram but is gutted. Everything has been shipped off to Santa. She’s waiting for the girls as they’re off for a Christmassy day in Gainsborough because there is a free event with ice skating and real reindeer. It’s on all weekend. Today is a school day so hopefully quiet. Jace looks adorable. Lazy has decided not to say “no don’t touch” and just tell Mila to be gentle. Great but maybe you can teach that to the right child.
Lazy screeches at “Rosabelle”. She loves that the shops have Christmas music and didn’t know they were coming to a “shop place”. Esme tries to get Mila to say “Esme”. They’re at something yard that is like Crown Point. They need a battery for the clicker for their gate as they almost couldn’t get out because the battery was dying. Creepstopher knew it was but said nothing.
Lazy screeches at Jace and asks if he can see Santa. Isla, Jace and Mila are squished into a carousel car together. Creepstopher tells Mila to look at who it is. Jace has jumped back on the carousel. They try to work out where the square is. Creepstopher wishes there was smellovision because there is German bratwursts, a kebab house, fish and chip shop and a pie shop.
I’m very grateful there is no smellovision as im sure the over riding smell would be unwashed Creepstopher and desperation. The town is cute. They look at the doughnuts. The shopkeeper asks if Jace is a girl, Lazy says boy but that they get it everywhere.
Ice rink found. They have size 8 skates for Jace so he can go on. Lazy cackles at Creepstopher before getting on the ice with Jace, who is gripping onto her fingers hard. The ice rink isn’t actually ice but hard plastic and a bit dodgy. Creepstopher is embarrassed as he couldn’t properly skate on it.
Time to see Santa. The elf looks to be about 9 or 10. Lazy takes photos. Isabelle had a special request that she wanted to go on the bus for a tea or coffee. Creepstopher says they're trading van life for bus life. He dances with Jace and Mila. He can stand up in the bus and they need to buy a double decker bus. Mila screams because Creepstopher won’t let her go downstairs. Lazy treated everyone to hot chocolate with cream but got Creepstopher a tea because he asked for one. He says he did because he didn’t know what Lazy was doing. He thought hot chocolate was more money. Comment below if you do bus life. Mila is tasting hot chocolate for the first time. She is starting to answer questions with “yes” first. A school comes out onto the stage in front of the van and Isla is trying to guess what they’re doing. Lazy says Isabelle could get the bus for her 18th and they have a full bar.
The Inghams are wandering around the shops. Jace has been given another treat for wearing his patch all week - £2 mini monster trucks. It’s not easy for Jace wearing the patch so they’ve promised him a treat at the end of every week.
Yeah and every bloody day in between. If that woman returned from the shops without a treat for him he’d have a full meltdown. Isla finds the Maui, which she wants as a stocking filler. Isabelle looks at the hair dye. Jace starts screeching about something he wants. Lazy remembers being excited looking at the makeup in Superdrug and now her children do. Esme isn’t a makeup girls don doesn’t follow the crowd. Her main Christmas present wish is yarn from America. Creepstopher has gone back to the car to upload the vlog.
Well that explains why Lazy is allowed to mention America.
Lazy and Esme have found a picture they want on their advent calendar this year on jigsaws in The Works. Isabelle looks at books. She has picked How to Kill your Family, The Cheat Sheet, Twisted Hate, Things We Never Got Over, Beach Read and Slammed. Lazy says Isabelle is a bit dark and that her book lost for Christmas was 30 pages long.
Creepstopher has enjoyed the Christmassy experience in Gainsborough. Lazy is driving home so he can enjoy his “mully” mulled wine. Lazy is sure the alcohol burns off when cooked. He paid £5 for it. If you live in Gainsborough go down this weekend as it was enjoyable for chuldren. There were children from local schools singing and market stalls. There were Christmassy gifts and treats. This is Creepstopher’s first mulled wine of the season but nothing matches Disneyland. They still have bottles of mulled wine they brought home from Switzerland last year.
But are they still full or has he been necking them whilst deleting comments at night?
Lazy gets in the hot tub. Jace spots her. You can guarantee in three minutes there will be two or three chuldren joining her. Jace’s new duvet set has arrived and Lazy knows he’ll love it. Esme and Isla are having a sleepover. Isabelle is going out into Leeds tomorrow and Lazy has her special day with Isla. They’re having a fun day. The day was lovely and it was sponsored by the council so free for everyone. The food and stalls were not free. Lazy got ideas for Christmas presents. The bus they got on was cheap with tea for £1.50, hot chocolate with cream and coffee with cream £2.
Lazy can’t relax as she spots Creepstopher cleaning. He cracks her up. You could eat dinner off the floor. He has been up and down with the hoover. He comes outside saying he's off to get her a special drink. She realises the hot tub has Bluetooth. Lazy cackles at Esme in the kitchen in her bikini. She wants to put Christmas music on. Creepstopher brings her a bottle of coke. Lazy doesn’t like the hot tub too hot - 37° is fine. She sees that Jace, Isla and Esme have their costumes on and are coming to join her in the hot tub. Cackling and singing.
Isla says she’s excited for tomorrow. No one knows what they’re doing. The Christmas tree looks so pretty and tall.
Lazy is out of the shower and off to surprise Jace with his new bedding. She doesn’t know what ‘mini blanket included’ means. She asks Jace if he’s ready. He opens his eyes and does a deep growly “yeah”. He pulls the cover off his bed. Time lapse of him and Lazy changing the bed. They don’t seem to change the bottom sheet though. Lazy asks him what they have to look out for when changing the bed, he says “mountains”, they get rid of them by “ripping it High open” so they shake the duvet and then he says they need to tuck it in at the bottom.
Jace turns the lights off. They look at the ceiling stars. Jace shouts for Creepstopher. Jace gets into the bed as he has to check to see if it’s warm. Creepstopher says the bed is beautiful. Jace is still wearing his eye patch as he settles down for bed. I thought they said they had to do it when he was active during the day. Surely they had a couple of hours befor Lazy was in the hot tub for an hour or so the camera keeps fogging up. She feels grateful and lucky all the time but feels extra lucky tonight for their house and health. She thanks everyone who has supported their channel for the past seven years.
