ABOUT US - Honest answers to your questions about our relationship, work & van life
We put this video together to answer some of the questions we received through KZread and other social media sites.
Apologies for the picture quality in places, it seems my phone camera is on the blink and rather than filming it all again, I tried my best to enhance the picture on the computer.

Love this. I was with my wife for 37 years and believed it was forever. The last few years she started to change to the point I didn't recognise her. Anyway, she decided that life for her would be better somewhere else. That was 5 years ago. I've had a couple of unsuccessful attempts with women since then but it's so hard to find someone that really clicks. So nice to see you two hitting it off together. ❤

Mr and Mrs REALLY discombobulated me. What you love about each other brought me to tears. Helen, I bet you're a WONDERFUL midwife
In a world where social media is all about sharing rose tinted lives and creating idealistic setups to enhance the experiences they are having, here we have two lovely authentic people talking about their lives while driving a van. Honest, truthful and real. What a refreshing difference to the glitzy, pseudo content of so many van-life channels that flatter to deceive! I look forward to every video, no matter what it's about, since I know it will always be trustworthy and genuine and therefore hugely watchable!

Definitely knew Helen was in the nursing profession. I bet she’s an amazing midwife. The mothers wouldn’t need pain relief with her personality x
Bless her, I got tears in my eyes when Helen started crying 😢
You do realise the chances of you two meeting - impossible. Conclusion - kismet - meant to be. Quite amazing really!
Love the intro- my parents was on mr & mrs in 1976 love it.. but no that wasn’t them.🙋♀️
looks like morning tv will be looking for a couple of presenters, you`ll be the perfect pair
Christ James, you sure your not my birth twin? Dj, wheeler dealer, van lifer (me wanna be), same age, balding etc and with Crazy woman. You had my wife in tears when you spoke about what you both like about each other! You 2 are great to watch, you guys are the real deal, dont change, keep up the great content! Cant wait to next episode of the Helen and James show!

Lots of questions I had have been answered, thank you. You two deserve to have found each other.

You're both good people and the world would be a significantly better place with more folk like you :)

What a super video. I have been divorced and on my own for 3 years, I'm happy as I am. But if I ever decide to try and meet a partner again, its a great reminder there are some great people still out there looking for a great partner. I loved that Benidorm video and have watched a few of these now and subscribed now. You are great and Helen is just fantastic. I hope this channel gets bigger and bigger. There is definitely something special about you both 👍🙂🎉♥️

...It’s unconditional love... a very rare and highly admirable and lucky position to be in.... I say , well done “Yow- Tow” 🍫😍
Brilliant.I needed that.The opening skit nearly made me spit out my brew,I laughed so much.
Omg that was soooooo lovely - Helen getting emotional was very touching and like she said it shows you are both very real. I had it in my head that Helen was something like a legal secretary or worked in the court or prison system. I think she is a very intelligent lady and could see her doing that job but i do think that midwife suits her down to the ground as shes the most loving, caring person ever❤❤❤❤

Your obvious love for each other makes me very happy, there's not enough love in the world so good on yer both! and on a completely different subject, seeing as you talked briefly about breweries, I'm a fan of Vocation Brewrey, Hebden Bridge in West Yorks, I'm personally not a fan of stouts but they do some great ipa's. I'm loving this channel and the content...All the best to you both.

Love watching you two. Both down to earth and a bit dry. What a great pair of Ditto soul mates I almost met mine in the Southwest. I travelled from Plymouth to Barnstable to see her . She was a midwife separated from her husband. On our first date her husband died of a heart attack. I had to take her and her daughters to the hospital to see him. I eventually got home in tears but couldn't see her again. Meeting on the day of her husband's death. Her daughters thought I was a family friend. Anywhooo loved the Benidorm and Elche trip. Good luck to you two. What a great couple there's hope for all.of us ❤
Of course Helen was a nurse! Love your videos guys
