    Be kind to yourself and take your time to decide what comes next. Rushing to fill the vacuum of a relationship breakup is never a wise move. All the best.

    @Menditman2014 Před 5 lety +15

    Hi very shocked she seemed so committed in your videos, you wouldn’t get many woman helping dragging engines in and out. I actually have one but there’s not many around😂. You seem quite upbeat about it all, I hope it’s like that off camera as I wouldn’t want to think of you being to down about the situation. Anyway stay strong and I’ll look forward to your future videos👍

  • @TPerry2828
    @TPerry2828 Před 5 lety +8

    That's sad news Ian, but I'm relieved to hear it was amicable. You have much to ponder now!! Best wishes.

    @lancpudn Před 5 lety +5

    So sorry to hear of your marriage ending, it cant be an easy time for both of you, thank you Ian for being so open and keeping us informed (although it's non of my business) I really enjoy your style of videos and it would be sad to see the bangernomics come to an end.
    As you say it could be the start of a new adventure, I wish you the best of luck and hope things turn out for the better for both of you.

  • @terryatkinson899
    @terryatkinson899 Před 5 lety +3

    I'm shocked, but, wish you both all the best for the future.
    Things like this happen in life and we pick up the pieces as best as we can. It's none of our business but fair play to you for being so positive and honest.

  • @huntsbychainsaw5986
    @huntsbychainsaw5986 Před 5 lety +2

    Thank you for sharing with us this very sensitive part of your life. The trick to living well is allowing your self to fully experience each and every moment in this life, the joy and the pain. Travel is an excellent way to find yourself particularly when your not sure who that is. Live well good friend.

  • @1daddyDA
    @1daddyDA Před 5 lety +15

    Feel for you no end. I’m 61-on March 17th, with two grown up boys to my first marriage. That lasted 18 years. Divorce and break up was not nice. Oddly enough though it always seemed inevitable and I think we both just waited until the boys grew up to split. Yes it’s odd when relationships end but as you say change can be both exciting as well as a bit scary. Glad you are keeping the animosity out of stuff. I hope to see my first Wife again after over ten years now when we attend our oldest Son’s graduation. I can honestly say I harbor not one jot of animosity towards her at all. Frankly we just grew apart and it was totally clear we wanted completely different things from life. You take care my friend and if you want any help with that motoring journalism give me a topic to review! (If you go travelling do keep us all in the loop with loads of video blogs)

  • @jimdavis8804
    @jimdavis8804 Před 5 lety +4

    Sorry to hear about the split up. My wife and I have been married for 54 years and can’t imagine life without Her. Good Luck Brother Ian.

  • @jameswallace7709
    @jameswallace7709 Před 5 lety +17

    Sorry to hear this Ian. You should buy a Bedford VAL or another Bedford bus and convert it and travel in it.

    • @rollingtroll
      @rollingtroll Před 5 lety

      How is he going to drive the other cars then?
      Other than that this sounds like a great idea for a CZcams channel.
      I used to run a forum for years and the management team (three of us) would travel past members twice a year, in a weekend, picking 10-12 members every time (obviously only the ones that wanted to receive us). It was a blast. with Ian's 25000 followers(and counting) this could actually give you a lot of good video material, and (member) cars to test drive.
      Ian... You may want to give this one a thought. It sounds like something people would watch.

    • @LancashireBob
      @LancashireBob Před 5 lety

      A VAL mmmmmm worked for a coach company who still has one. Amazing to drive. The boss used to say if you bent it you were out of a job. I don't know if he was serious or not. It was great turning up in seaside coach parks next to all the modern machinery and being the spotlight for all the coach spotters.

  • @neodonkey
    @neodonkey Před 4 lety +1

    I'm a year late to this post, sorry to hear about this, been watching your vids since the early days but I had a long term relationship fail on me too and rather than deal with it as well as you have I went into a black hole. Don't even have a running car anymore so I fell out of watching car videos for ages.
    Great to see your new videos in New Zealand, new fresh hair cut and so on. Wish I had bounced back as well as you seem to have. Well done sir!

    Devastated by this news, but all the best to the two of you because you are both great people, and deserve the best. So chin up lad 👍 Tam.

  • @d2factotum
    @d2factotum Před 5 lety +4

    You like the uncertainty? Can't say I'm with you there, I prefer things safe and organised--which is probably why I don't have a fleet of ordinary cars parked on my driveway! Good luck for the present and the future, Mr. Hubnut.

  • @stevek3036
    @stevek3036 Před 5 lety +5

    Good luck Ian. I'm sure it will all work out o.k. for both You and Mrs Hub Nut

    @MechitBetter Před 5 lety +1

    Not being scared of change is a real strength, and it takes courage to make a video like that. You’re an inspiring character Ian in more ways than you realise. I think you’ve got 24k friends here who all wish you well and will support you no matter how things go or which direction you take. So... go travelling I say. See which version of yourself you find out there on the road 👍

  • @chrisbateman7859
    @chrisbateman7859 Před 5 lety +3

    Have to say I was very surprised at this news. Wishing both of you all the best for the future, whatever that may be.

  • @vancave1378
    @vancave1378 Před 5 lety +1

    Here's and idea, get an 70's or 80's Van, convert it in to a camper and travel the UK reviewing people's classic cars! You can put your van build in to a series too. Sorry to hear about your break up, I've not long gone through one too. I've just bought a 2010 LWB Ducato Van and planning my Campervan build. Just binged watched your channel over the last week or so, absolutely love it! All the best, Mike.

  • @RichieRouge206
    @RichieRouge206 Před 5 lety +3

    • @TheChipmunk2008
      @TheChipmunk2008 Před 5 lety +1

      THIS, 1000 times to remaining friends. Society calls it weird, but getting on with an ex is.... being adult.

    • @TheChipmunk2008
      @TheChipmunk2008 Před 5 lety +1

      And thank you former mrs hubnut. You are good people :)

    • @nogginozzy6710
      @nogginozzy6710 Před 5 lety +1

      Quite a surprise to learn that, hubnut. Bit disappointed really as I’m one for marriages “through thick and thin” no matter what couples may face. However, like you said, the decision was amicable and all I can say is all the best for the road ahead! 🙂

  • @FreeSpeech1959

    @BarryAllenMagic Před 5 lety

    Never met either Rachel or yourself Ian; but you both have my love and best wishes for your future lives. You have both bought me (and thousands of others) such enjoyment, laughs and happiness over the months. Personally, your almost daily clips were such a joy to watch when I was getting over a serious operation last December. You were both part of my life at a very difficult time. Thank you both so very much for that. Travelling-wise, I think that's a fantastic idea in order to get away from everyday life and give your mind some clarity and food for thought; it should also offer you some options for whatever future direction that you may wish to take. Take care fella. Baz.
