    Apparently short term memory loss is also beneficial to a strong relationship! 😂 “it’s your turn” … “no it’s your turn, I did the last one” … “no I did the last one” … 🤪 ❤ 🦊

    You two are one of the most awesome couples I know. I think one of your secrets is how much laughter you share, and how playful you both are, along with how you're always there for each other. Love is grand, ain't it?

    I completely agree with you regarding how people treat you as a gay couple. My sister was gay and she never dressed as a statement of her sexuality, nor flew a rainbow flag on her boat or anywhere else, nor insisted everyone had to know that she was gay. I feel there may be too many people today who insist that we all need to know whether they are gay, trans, gender fluid or whatever other "label" they have given themselves, by whatever means possible. It's not needed. We don't need to know.

    You make a great couple. Congratulations. Sean - you are looking very svelte. Colin - my adult son was recently diagnosed as autistic. I've suspected it for a while, but he always "coped". I find your insights into autism really helpful in understanding his challenges and helping him work through the road bumps autism throws in his way.

    Thank you for this it was a brilliant idea; it was one of your best. What impressed me most was your comments and views on how people perceive you both. Absolutely spot on and I agree with everything you said and it wasn’t controversial. You’re both a ‘normal’ couple of guys one would pass in the street without noticing, (as are many good friends of mine) rather than the people who are desperate to be seen and try to instil their beliefs on others. I’m sick of them, especially as we were in LGI cardiac suite on Thursday and there was large pride flags everywhere in reception! Not the place, was it? And I am NOT homophobic, before anyone starts! Shaun, there’s a saying just for you…..” two words every man should know….yes dear! Good luck with that 🤣 Always hug. X

    Having had friends both female and male that are gay or straight in the last twenty years I've come to understand that people fall in love with people - whether male or female when they are the right person. To see a couple of whatever sex that are so happy and content is an amazing thing. Some people never meet that person. clumsy wording but you know what i mean. great video guys and congratulations.
