Your 'rabbiting' is half the fun of watching your channel. Don't stop.❤
Glad you enjoy it! xx
The khaki stripe dress really suits you Helen xx
Those tests are life savers. Good for you for making it public. Thank you x
They are!
Thank you xx
Yes, agreed! I had one a couple of weeks ago too, results came today - all good 👍
Hi first two dresses personaly didnt like blue one in 16 lovely and spot one nice 4 a occasion last one no no top and trousers no the primark ones look great with the top you had on last week 😊
I got one from my Doc in France but he stipulated the test be done on a Monday and go in the post immediately. Well so far it's not been possible ! Still waiting... That's IB..
I know that feeling.... if only we could stipulate! haha xx
Wow, that spotted dress - yes, lovely on you Helen. Please keep it. I love your company Helen. I now live alone and you are like a very special friend popping round. A bit of light in our lives. x
I have nowhere to wear it.... sadly xx
Oh Helen, don't let her live in your head! She doesn't deserve any thoughts at all! Love your channel, great advice re the screening test xxxxxx and please keep up your rabbiting, we love it ❤ You're so friendly, helpful and make us all feel like we're spending a lovely time with a pal 😁 Thank you and hope you have a great week xx
Thanks so much xx
I know why your channel is so great Helen….it’s because you don’t give us advice, do's and don’ts , no lectures about what suits us, what we should be wearing etc. You do the opposite and ask our opinions which is really much nicer I think xx.
Wow, thank you very much xx
I was diagnosed with bowel cancer 3 years ago.....major surgery and the rest...doing great now fingers crossed....do the test ladies...xxxxx...love your channel Helen xx
❤
Well done. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Goodness, so glad that the treatment worked. Well done! xx
Great to hear your recovering well.😊
Helen, you have kindly taken time to acknowledge or reply any comment I have made. Also come back to me answering a specific question. I want to thank you for taking the time to do that and for being an absolute hoot ! Never stop being you ❤
Thank you so much xx
Love your Chanel Helen- it’s like meeting up with a friend. Thank you.😊
That's lovely xx
I love it when I get a notification of one of your vlogs appearing. We are ‘real people’, Helen, chat away! 😂 x
Love that! Thank you xx
Good on you for highlighting the importance of bowel screening. In Scotland our programme starts at age 50. I know at least two people who have had positive results and swift treatment. Truly a life saver.
It really is, thank goodness we have it. xx
Hi Helen, I love being a Hels Belle!!! & appreciate the time you have taken out to acknowledge all my comments!! We subscribers love you for being you!! Lovely M&S haul, especially the black trousers & the beautiful ivory dress with black spots, ( I'd love this dress) you look stunning in this & if wearing for a special occasion definitely a head turner. Thank you for sharing, take care 💜 XX
Ah, thank you xx
Thank you for highlighting the cancer test - it is important. That blue dress is absolutely lovely, and the last dress was very glam too for a special occasion.
Thank you xx
@@Helenmaryjo PS Yes a size 16 is fine for you in most of these dresses, but the dress that was slimline needed the bigger size to be comfortable.
I agree xx
Don’t let that complainer get to you. She just wanted her 5 minutes of fame by being mentioned 😂. Ignore & carry on 😊.
You are right 😅xx
Well done Helen, on highlighting the bowel test, this test actually saved my life at the age of 50 and im now 62 so this year will be my last test that i will need to get to say I'm 10 years clear.xx
That's great. I'm surprised at how many ladies are saying the same thing, just goes to show. Thank you xx
Love the spotted dress Helen, especially if you have a ‘do’ to go to. If I ever see anybody in the same dress/outfit as me I always compliment them on their excellent choice.
Great idea!! Thank you xx
I love your channel! You make me laugh and you also inspire me to try new things. Thank you😊
You are so welcome! xx
You are such a joy and add a “hooray” to each day I watch! You will be at 20,000 viewer for your birthday… I just know it. You deserve every positive comment.
Wow, thank you! Xx
I love listening to you Helen so never apologise for rambling! I liked the navy and white trouser outfit x
Thank you very much xx
Hi Helen, thank you for sharing your haul in your hall 😊. I liked the light blue dress on you and yes size 16 perfect. Love your haircut slightly shorter suits you, I've had the same cut, great minds😂. Dolly is adorable bless her❤. I would come a knocking if i was your neighbour for a cuppa and a good old chat😂. Keep up with your videos we really enjoy them. Take care. Rosie O x
Thanks so much 😊 xx
Your vlogs always make me giggle and smile. It’s like having a chat with a good friend 🥰
Ah, thank you xx
Thank you! Saying how important the bowel screening kit is, had half my bowel removed removed due to bowel cancer and 6 months chemo.. Unfortunately I was to young for the testing kit... Love your personality, that's why I subscribed to you!.
Goodness, glad you came through it. Thank you very much xx
Touch typing is such a great skill to have isn't it Helen? I also learned shorthand and still use that all the time too for making notes. Along with dressmaking and home economics (how to budget) they were definitely the most useful things I learned during the whole of my time in education!
That's true for me too. xx
Snap! Same here too x
I love watching the clothes but what you said at the end… I do very much enjoy your company, many thanks
Thank you xx
I love your channel! You always make me smile! xx
I'm so glad! xx
The spotted dress looks really lovely on you! Size 16 looks fine and very glamorous!
Oh thank you! xx
Hi Helen. Take no notice of negative people. You are a breath of fresh air and work very hard answering everyone! I love the blue dress, the striped top you are wearing and the black pants and top. Keep being you! I love your humour. ❤
Thank you xx
I think 16 is more flattering . I always used to buy a bigger size until a friend tt
Told me to try. I was so surprised and had lots of comments that I'd lost weight. It was a moral boost.
That's alway a nice feeling xx
Keep up the great work Helen, you're brilliant 👏 xxx
Ah, thank you xx
Blue & white dress definitely your colours. I am enjoying your videos.
Oh thank you! xx
My daughter and I both love your channel and love seeing Dolly. You’re such a laugh and brighten our day so please don’t stop.
I won't, thank you xx
The blue in 18 looked stunning and the olive green print looked so lovely 😍
Oh thank you! Xx
Thank you Helen another great video. The blue dress looked so beautiful on you. Sending hugs to you. 🤗😘🥰😍
The cream and black spotty dress looks amazing on you.
Thank you very much xx
Helen yet again the blue dress for you as it suit's your colouring 🎉❤
Thank you xx
Loved the bright blue and the last occasion dress on you, they looked great xx ignore the occasional off comments, there’s nowt so strange as folk lol

Always a good listen and informative. Blue dress a winner, as was the formal dress at the end. Trousers very handy wardrobe keeper.
Ignore negative people 😊.
Your a gorgeous lady xx
I will.
Thank you xx
Gorgeous dresses Helen. I've just done my bowel cancer test. All is fine thankfully. We are certainly very lucky either way our NHS screenings that we have xx
Yes we are.
Thank you xx
I liked the second dark blue dress and the spotted dress. Plus you have always answered my comments very quickly, thank you for your time
You are so welcome! Thank you xx
Yes mine too so l thank you Lovely Helen! ❤️xxx
Thanks Helen for another enjoyable haul I loved the white/black spotted dress and your shoes very elegant, can't believe it was only. £45 ! I agree it would be lovely for a wedding. Thankyou for the reminder of Bowel test, we only did ours last year but it reminded me that it's time for my mammogram! Unfortunately once you are over 75 these tests are no longer automatically given, the responsibility has to come from yourself to contact the NHS, so thanks for the nudge for the other end of me😂 luvnhugs Margaret
Yes, a note in the diary is needed I think... xx
Helen I Love all your videos and you have been so nice to reply to me in the past. Thank you from Chico, California. Vicki
Thank you very much xx
Hi I will subscribe. You are fab to watch. I’m 63 this year size 14/16 but I love your outlook…. Keep doing what you’re doing 😁 Amanda x
Welcome and thank you so much!! xx
You reply to comments (and quickly) more than anyone else!
I do my best xx
Well I think you looked great in all these dresses!
Thank you very much xx
Hi Helen I love your rabbiting ❤😂 Never stop please ❤ Love the dresses so nice on you xxxxx
😊 thank you xx
Love the blue dress, 16 or 18, both look fine. Keep “rabbitting” love it ❤️❤️❤️
Okey dokey, haha xx
Hi Helen, another enjoyable video….they are all enjoyable.though. Think I once commented a couple of years ago that it amazes me how you reply to everyone and the more subscribers you get it will become impossible for you to do so. However you can tell that we are all delighted when you reply and always look to see your comments so I would like to thank you so much and for people who are on their own you will have made them very very happy.🏴xx
It's my pleasure. While I can, I will xx
Always enjoy watching you Helen, take no notice of the moaners, who cares, I'm an auxiliary nurse in Cheshire and work in a hospital and we get some rude people sometimes a thick skin is required x
I know, I need to grow one. I've never been very good at that. But I'm getting better I promise xx
HB. Well, of course we enjoy your company! Often that’s why I watch “Oh, Helen’s got a video: good, a cheery twenty minutes or so”! Clothes looked good and how satisfying to try on, successfully, a smaller size!
Yes. Thank you very much xx
I love your videos Helen ❤
Ah, thank you xx
Another enjoyable and inspiring video. Thanks for all your effort x
My pleasure, thank you xx
Love the channel and appreciate all your hard work and conversations x
Glad you enjoy it! xx
Another brilliant video. Loved the crisp clean dress❤
Thank you xx
A lovely selection- thank you for the try on and chat ❤
You’re welcome 😊 xx
Great video Helen I really enjoyed it. Thank you ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you xx
Hi Helen . I really liked the blue & white dress , & the green & black dress , plus the trousers and top .
You are very good to watch , make everything interesting & fun . 👍😘
Thank you very much xx
Ladies always do your poo test. It has saved my 51 year old daughter’s life. After major life changing surgery, she is doing well. I have also had pre-cancerous polyps removed recently. So I am grateful that these tests are available free in this country. Helen I love your videos. You really make me laugh.
Gosh, so glad your daughter is okay and you too.
Thank you very much xx
Lovely to see Dolly
Always enjoy your company Helen,love the t shirt,I don’t wear dresses much but I love seeing you in them ❤
Thank you very much xx
I enjoy your channel, you have made me change my mind on the clothes that I can wear. It’s only because of your advice that I have the confidence to go outside my comfort zone. 💕 Please dont ever let others stop you being you, I am not commenting for a reaction from you so don’t let others upset you. Xx
I'm so glad!
Thank you xx
I had my bowel screening test a couple of weeks ago. Just got the normal result back. Always an anxious wait. You only have to do the one sample now so it’s a bit easier.
That’s good.
Thank you xx
Sounds like you’re a bit more advanced in the UK, my kit says 3 days in a row 🫣
I haven't opened mine yet... still waiting to be able to oblige! haha xx
@@Helenmaryjo I find 85% dark chocolate or strong coffee helps things along 😂
@@janewaring2913 I hate coffee 🫤 but I could do the chocolate 🤣🤣
What a great video Helen, such a good idea to try on is differant sizes. Looking forward to your next one 💕
Thanks so much! 😊 xx
Hi Helen just luv your vlogs your such a laugh very down to earth funny and I can relate more to your vlogs being the same age as you loved the dresses thought they were all nice liked the third dress and the pale green black dress also the t shirt with the trousers you should buy a 16 as you looked fab in that size hair looks lovely ignore negative people can’t wait for your next vlog and thank you for showing us these lovely clothes will be going on marks spencer website for sure 🥰❤️
Ah, thank you xx
I wouldn’t worry about the troll 👿. Unfortunately, you get them lurking about. It’s sad really. Thanks for 😊sharing. Great haul as always ❤xxxxx
Thank you very much xx
The blue and white dress the third one looked fabulous on you, and the colour really made your eyes pop. Definitely buy that dress.
Oh thank you! xx
Thanks again Helen for a great video, I for one really appreciate that you bring/ share what is currently in stores. Honestly, it must be a faff… purchasing, trying on and then dealing with any returns.
Please know that we do appreciate the effort you go to.
By the way, loved the spotty dress and the blue and white patterned dress, very Grecian vibes! x
Thank you very much xx

Thank you very much xx
The blue dress and the green one look great for easy wearing. Love the spot dress for “going out” you always give honest comments and opinions ! X
Thank you so much!! xx
The green flowered dress size 16 was lovely - I’d call it chartreuse.
I do enjoy how you just chat through the clothes, point out what you like or don’t like and talk about options for wearing etc. I get my hubby to video me in clothes I try on to see it in motion and sitting down!
Love that!
Thank you xx
Thoroughly enjoy your company. You look lovely in the blue dress . Like the black trousers and t shirt too xxx
Thank you very much xx
Another great chatty and funny episode in the day of Helen. Good vibes😊
Thank you very much xx
Hi, Helen. Such a great idea to try the two sizes. When I find something I really think I'm going to like, I do order 2 sizes just to make sure. I just love your channel! Your wonderful sense of humor and down-to-earth approach are so refreshing. Your chats are another thing that makes your channel so special. Thank you so much!!! XXX Maryfrances
Ah, thank you xx
Hi Helen, the dresses looked lovely on you and the blue was my favourite. Love your chatty videos best, don’t change 😊 Thank you 😊

Hi Helen. Thanks for you chat about the screening. I was 60 last September and my kit has been in my cupboard since then as I’ve been putting it off. I’ve now read the instructions and am ready to go …. Wish me luck. Alison in Chichester. Xx
Good girl! xx

Really enjoy watching your channel. Love the wide range of your content, from fashion to home hacks. Keep going and I hope you get to 20,000 subscribers for your birthday, you deserve to x
Thanks so much!! xx
I was in Sainsbury’s today, looking at some of the summer clothes and I thought of you whilst I was looking at some of the dresses and thought how well you wear your clothes. You are classy in your choices and you know what you like. I think your figure has very good proportions. You know how to make the best of your assets and how to minimise those parts of your body that you are not so fond of. well done, Helen. You deserve everyone of your subscribers. Xx
That's very kind, thank you xx
The blue dress in the 16 was lovely. The green reminded me of chocolate lime sweets! Thanks again for a great haul and braving the 16 vs 18 dilemma
Oh thank you! xx
Thank you Hellen ❤
Thank you loved all the dresses ❤
Glad you like them! xx
I had bowel test recently . Sent for colonoscopy. Discovered I had polyps that were potential cancer growing. Had them removed. Will be checked in 3 years. Job done👍
Great stuff. Shows how important they are. xx
I love your company and your humour Helen, I have watched you almost since the beginning.. the style of clothes is not always what I would wear as I have a different shape completely but you always look so lovely and smart in your choices. I actually thought the last t-shirt was very flattering on you, it looked very youthful. Thank you and keep bringing us your lovely and varied content ...love it 😊xx
Thank you so much! xx
Love the black cargo pants with the ric rak top. So flattering!
Thank you xx
Thanks Helen, love watching you x
Thank you very much xx
I love all the 'hauls'!
I would love you to do another seasalt one and possibly a white stuff dress haul too? After seeing you do the seasalt one, I changed my mind and bought a dress I'd dismissed!
Thank you for your well rounded views x
Will do!! Xx
