thank you the train it's in a very early start this morning Keegan has dropping at the stations
and filming with Leo I'm on the train now but it's very quiet so I'm not gonna Vlog very much
I've just got some work to do I'm working I've got some groundwork that's due in today so I'm
gonna head to I'm just changing trains at Tamworth and honestly you have to go Here
There and Everywhere there's like three different platforms on three different levels the toilets
were only on platform one so I was on three went to realize I had to go back to one now I'm going
back to three to go back to one wrong platform again I'm on platform four you can't get it to
platform two from platform oh guys I can't cope I also forgot to have a shave this morning for
filming with Leah which is very annoying I feel like I look a bit of a mess it's fine it's fine
I've also realized that the work I've done the Branded work is slightly Incorrect and I don't
know when I'm going to be able to refill guys the coffee shop was shut today is not going to plan
um but it's okay I've decided I'm gonna have a shave at Leah's if she will let me
I'm gonna have a coffee and I'm gonna get Leah to take me to a drive-through coffee shop or
something so I can get a coffee or she can make me one at her Nespresso um everything's gonna be fine
at least I managed to go to the loop um but it is raining now as you can see I've got the Brolly out
I tried to record some stuff in a quiet part of the platform and then I realized Joel you're at
a train station nothing is quiet if it's not the trains it's the rain on the umbrella if it's not
the rain on the umbrella it's the announcement coming from like the speaker phones over there
so I think I'm just gonna have to send it to my manager tomorrow instead of today here
we go and then tomorrow I drive home to see my family which will be really nice foreign
is done with Leah it's 5 30. I've got the massive suitcase on the way back to London Houston I think
it's only an hour and a half or something from here so not too far within an hour once I'm in
London and then asleep at home I think lots of my birthday cards and presents are at home because
they didn't arrive in time before I left for the weekend for my birthday so I'll have some
more birthday presents and cars to open first thing in the morning driving further south to
see my parents so there's a lot to do right guys I've arrived home my suitcase is there got a ton
of packages there to open I've just opened my fridge I've got no food whatsoever it's 8 P.M
oh that means Bake Off song gonna have to catch up with that um I've got no food in so the only
choice is to get a takeaway which is not what I want because I want to be healthy I haven't been
to the gym for a few days but yesterday I had a very big treat day obviously it's my birthday time
and you know it's two days after my birthday so I've eaten quite a few birthday treats but
um what else am I supposed to do like the shops are shutting so I think I'm gonna get a takeaway
I'm gonna try and make it as healthy as possible I actually I'm gonna get Domino's and my favorite
go-to is the eat alone or uh one what's it called one person it's the saddest name of a
food deal ever it's like you're lonely and you're one person to buy this deal it's a personal size
pizza so it's quite small if you get the veggie Delight then it's only under 550 calories so it's
550 calories for the pizza and then you get two sides so I normally get potato wedges and
a little garlic bread all in all I think it's like under 1500 calories so it's not too bad so
I think I might try and do that as you can see I look like a mad Professor oh it's gone up 15
used to be 11.99 and you used to get two sides and now you get one but I suppose that's better
for my waistline oh big brekkie Delight veggie I customize it because uh it comes with reduced fat
cheese I'm getting rid of mushrooms obviously and I'm going to add chicken well the pizza is
bread so let me just get potato wedges and then a drink diet coke right pizza has arrived and
I've just lit the first fire of Autumn winter 2022. so I got this book ages ago I can't even
remember where I got it it's probably a birthday present called pup cakes and I was having a flick
through at the different things I can make for my dog and something really stood out which was
salivating Sushi snacks so I thought why not make some Dog sushi some douchey let's do it the things
that you will need for this recipe two carrots 100 grams of Lamb's heart or Lamb's liver now
guys the last few weeks I've been trying to find Lamb's heart or Lamb's liver I've been to many
butchers and many different places and they've all said sold out and I'm like wait how who's
eating Lamb's heart and Lamb's liver like why is it selling out so instead I'm actually gonna
do it with tuna you need three sheets of Japanese Sushi Nori you need sticky rice tomato puree and
you need a cucumber so the first step guys is to cut the carrots lengthways Into Thin little strips
this is quite hard to do so watch your fingers because you know actually Ava would love to eat
a piece of my finger she's such a carnivore she's probably really enjoy the meat of my fingers I
should not be trusted with knives I still find it hard to believe that I am actually an adult and
that I have been allowed to go through life doing whatever the hell I want I feel like I need to be
under constant supervision but hey I've managed to cut these right so now you've got your strips of
carrot like this you need to boil them so whilst the sushi rice is absorbing lots of water and I've
washed it a few times in the carrot guys right it says boil for two minutes so it doesn't feel like
long enough but I'm going to do it a bit longer let's get these out and they need to cool whoops
right so the same thing needs to be done for the Cucumber to cut lengthways into strips I don't
really know how much you need this is a quarter of a cucumber this is half that can be for me years
ago I remember me and Leah are going to do a sushi class and we filmed it on our channel that was
ages ago and you know what after that I either got given or I went out and bought my own Sushi mats
and I don't know where they are I think they must still be at my parents house so annoyingly this
recipe does say to you Sushi mats or greaseproof paper so I'm gonna have to use greaseproof paper
because I don't know where my Sushi mats are I love cucumber I feel like it's so bougie
to make sushi for a dog oh I can hear her Ava I'm making you something babe I'm making you sushi I'm
making you douchey Dog sushi she literally has no idea what I'm doing would you like some cucumber
I love that I'm spending all this time effort energy and money on making a dog Sushi when I
could just give her a cucumber which take would cost like 50p but that's because we love our dogs
you know what I've got a feeling I'm gonna mess this up because I haven't done this for a long
time you need to spread out half of this rice it says that's quite a lot I don't know if I need
all of that leaving a one centimeter Gap at the top and bottom so let's try that guys this is the
most effort I've ever put into making something for Ava and she sat at my feet because I think
she now somehow knows that this is for her don't know how dogs do it but they know they're psychic
have I ever told you guys that I'm psychic as well I can't control it yet so if you were to
ask me a question I wouldn't be able to tell you the answer but I've had a few experiences
where I'm like wow I'm definitely psychic you've got to spread the tomato puree along the rice
in the middle like this I think that's correct get some carrots
Chuck that in the middle I've definitely got way too much carrot and some cucumber got some tuna
this should be Lamb's heart and Lamb's liver but weirdly it's very popular at the moment is
everyone making Dog sushi this is what I want to know why the supermarket's running out of lambs
liver and Lamb's heart I think I've overfilled this I could take some rice away if needed I'm
really sorry if there's like someone Japanese watching that is like you're crucifying this
dish but if I remember correctly so gotta go ah and down there and then peel this back as I go
okay it's like a burrito this is like the biggest Sushi I've ever made right let's have a look
okay not bad it did say to wet wet the Nori but because it's quite warm
it's holding its shape guys this isn't bad cut the sushi with a sharp moistened knife
that is incredible work Joel look at that I'm a genius Ava you've got a genius for a dad guys
I'm so impressed with myself I honestly thought I was gonna fail this is now making me think I
should make sushi for myself for dinner if I was serving this at a dinner party I'd be a bit upset
but because this is for my dog I really don't mind now let me read you some facts because I'm sure
some of you are thinking but Joel is Sushi safe for pets now this says that Nori seaweed is really
rich in vitamins including C and b12 apparently the most important part in it is iodine which
is really important for regulating your dog's metabolism and energy levels but it can be harmful
in large quantities so I'm gonna only feed Ava one of these or two of them a week something like that
so this is not the sort of treat to give more than one a day it's not the sort of treat to give them
every day um because of the seaweed but yeah Ava you can make the most of having this today
here we go sit have you ever had sushi before no I already know that because I feed you off
you go oh
well that was quick did you enjoy that Ava did you enjoy that success I mean that didn't last
long this literally took me hours to make and she ate it in about 3.6 seconds you want more
well you can't have any more darling in fact you can't have any more for a couple of days now and
then I'll give you another one towards the end of the week sorry so for anyone interested this
is the book I've actually never made anything from this book before so I can't tell you whether it's
any good or not apart from that sushi recipe which is great turkey bake tempter that sounds
good oh we've got some desserts there magnificent muffins we've got some jerky some magic mut balls
marvelous mutloaf pasta box slice so this is actually going to be part of a bigger Vlog
because I've now just filmed it and gone actually there was not much to say and it didn't take up a
whole video but let me know if you do think this would be a good series on my channel because I
could try and make them a bit longer but if not I might just still make some of these and just
put them in Vlogs every month so you can decide to make them for your dog if you so wish hey everyone
it is a special day today isn't it yeah it's October 3rd all your tongue's cold are you cold
um stop it now I know it's Ava's birthday today she's three years old today
oh my gosh so I celebrate two different birthdays for Ava I celebrate her actual birthday which
is October 3rd and then I celebrate December 9th which I think I've got that right I need to check
my records I'm pretty sure December 9th was when I picked Ava up um so yeah we've got we've got
our dog adversary haven't we when we first met on the well we actually first met on the 8th didn't
we and then I picked her up on the 9th so the time has gone so quickly guys I remember it so vividly
living in my old flat going to pick Ava up me and Lucy went to see her the day before there
was two of them two puppies a boy and a girl the boy had already gone and been re-homed so it was
just Ava left on her own and I'm so grateful that nobody else picked you because I got you
love her so much so she's already had a custard cream today if you don't know what custard cream
is it's the best biscuit in the world or cookie As Americans call it it's just so delicious so
you had one didn't you yeah was it nice she's so sweet anyway I've just been working today it

because we can help each other I've just uploaded a Members Only video so I've got two videos going
live today I've got one going live to everyone that's my Stitch fix video and then I've got
a Members Only video which is going live so I basically with my members only videos sometimes
I have an idea or I want to rant and talk to my members other times I go back through my phone
because I film now quite a lot on my phone as well as on my camera which I'm doing right now so I go
through my memory cards on my camera go through my phone and I found a lot of old footage on my phone
of stuff that I was gonna not post on my main channel for everyone to see but for my members
so I found some of me Keegan and his kids going to do iFly which is indoor skydiving I found a
footage of me going for a meeting with my acting agent and uh a few different things so I put that
all together in a 15 minute Vlog and so that is with my members right now and I mean it's not
live yet but I will put some comments on screen I love showing you guys some comments it's a bit
like a little shout out to some of my members and I love that you guys get excited by it as well
the members that get their comments featured like oh my gosh you featured my comment so
um yeah thank you so much for all of my members out there if you're not a member and you would
like to become a member try it it's 3.99 a month which is less than a coffee and it works out a
probably about a dollar per video so it's it's really not a lot and you can cancel at any time
you're not roped into anything and the only reason I push it so hard is firstly yes it
does help support this channel financially Lisa enables me to keep making videos but also just
because it's really fun and some of the videos as well deep down I'm like I wish I didn't post that
to members I wish I posted it to everyone because I really like that video other members videos I'm
like absolutely I'm not posting that for everyone that's just an exclusive rant behind the scenes
um so it's a mix some videos are yeah but some of them I'm like oh this was a really really
good video I wish everyone could see this um but I'm like no my members come first and if you can't
become a member totally understand we're in a cost of living crisis I get it but that is why
um it's only 3.99 a month because I don't want to make it inaccessible for anyone that
is my cheeky plug over it's now time to get to the gym and move this body sorry over foreign
