How much my Bitcoin is worth NOW is on this playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZfK4GUTQWxGnONg5Qk4Vun4n3U69NKae

I bought £400 Bitcoin directly from PayPal, using my regular personal PayPal account: just using the crypto tab. I'm buying £100 over each consecutive week... 
See how much it's worth now in the link above!

If you're scared of buying Bitcoin TRY THIS

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello I’m neil welcome back to the channel 
this is the dad delivers vlog where I try something new every day and six weeks ago today the thing that I tried new was to buy cryptocurrency for the very first time 
and that launched this experiment I’m hoping to run through the year 
I’m six weeks on I nearly stopped but I thought it's Sunday evening... it's a beautiful evening here in June, here in the UK
I’m gonna... I’m gonna keep going with this and the plan is to buy some cryptocurrency every week just to see what would happen 
and I’m doing it using this... 
this is my regular PayPal account where you can buy cryptocurrency and I’ll explain that as I go along 
but it's... it's scary and it's quite a financial commitment which I can't really afford but the money is still there at the moment and I know that who knows what could happen to this 
I could lose everything but it could pay off as well and being a greedy herbert like perhaps you might be I thought well I might make some money as well 
but it's tricky while cryptocurrency looks like this 
it looks like it's tanking and just going down 
I’m thinking well buying while it's going down might be a good thing 
so that's what we're testing 
and it's... it's also difficult to bring you up to speed every week with how that's doing because I’m basically saying the same thing each week which is... 
It’s worth less than what I bought in the first place 
this is what is happening right now 
this is just my regular PayPal app on my normal PayPal account 
you can see this giant crypto button here  
I think we... we must think this is because PayPal are quite keen for us to be trying out crypto on its service 
this is week number six and my rule is this 
I am spending 100 pounds every week 
this is what I’ve spent so far just on Bitcoin 
and after last week I have spent 510 pounds and five pence on cryptocurrency 
let's see what it's worth now 
up on screen now that 510 pounds and five pence is now worth £446.57 
so I am down by 65 pounds 
it's down at the moment but I’m gonna continue 
I’m gonna hit this crypto button now and you have to forgive me because the PayPal app blanks out certain screens from the screen recording so if the resolution starts to look a bit weird it's because I’ve put in some other footage 
so my £510 now looks like this £445 
and I’ve bought two currencies last week 
I bought Ethereum for the very first time 
I bought 100 pounds of Ethereum which is now worth £83.92 so the ethereum has really taken a hit in the last seven days 
wow that has gone down by just under 20 pounds that means it's dropped by 20% in the last week 
should we go into ethereum 
let's see what's happened there 
ethereum is down by what about 15% in the last week 
it's really dropped look at that 
Let's go back to Bitcoin 
my 408 pounds and 4 pence of Bitcoin as you can see is now worth 360 pounds 84 
so that has lost about 48 pounds as well 
if I go into Bitcoin... 
Bitcoin is down on the week by 5% 
so this is good because this means we go back to the original rule 
the rule that I play every week is that if Bitcoin goes down then I’ll buy some more Bitcoin 
if Bitcoin goes up in the week then I will try some other cryptocurrency 
that's why I bought ethereum last week 
it's down which can mean only one thing... it's time to buy some more Bitcoin!
so let's... let's hit the buy button and then I will type in 100 pounds and one pence because the one pence puts me over the limit for the fees 
the fees for PayPal drop slightly if I go one penny over 100 pounds 
and then I’ll click buy Bitcoin 
it's telling me I’m going to buy 0.00437 Bitcoin with a transaction fee of 2 pounds so I’ll pay 102 pounds and one pence 
let's click agree and buy there you go you purchased 0.0043758 Bitcoin 
so my Bitcoin is now worth £459 after I’ve spent overall £510 and five pence 
if I move back to the crypto screen it's got what everything's worth now 
so I’ve spent 612 pounds and six pence and that's 612 pounds in cryptocurrency is worth 543 pounds 46 pence 
how long can I keep this going for 
what cryptocurrency would you choose 
because as we know the best financial advice comes from youtube comments 
but what would you do if you were in my situation 
would you keep going with this 
is anyone out there watching this experiment 
I don't know but say hi if you are and if you want to know what my cryptocurrency is worth right now it's right here in this playlist on screen 
that is what it's worth right now 
I’ll see you next week 
can you please help my daddy get 10000 subscribers just click on his face thanks bye! 
alright this is gonna be the proper one right?

How to buy Ethereum without using a shady site on Paypal



How much my Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency is worth NOW is on this playlist here:


How to buy Ethereum WITHOUT using a shady crypto site?



I bought £400 Bitcoin directly from PayPal, using my regular personal PayPal account: just using the crypto tab. What is the safest platform for buying crypto?
I'm buying £100 over each consecutive week... 
But THIS week I'm buying £100 of another crypto currency: ETHEREUM!
See how much it's worth now!

My spending rule is this:
Every week (if I can afford it... this is a stretch!) I buy £100 of cryptocurrency... 
If Bitcoin goes DOWN from last week, then I BUY
If Bitcoin goes UP then I will buy Ethereum.

How I buy Bitcoin using PayPal for the very first time is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9E6Nl6RIE8&list=PLZfK4GUTQWxGnONg5Qk4Vun4n3U69NKae

2:24 What is the best place to buy crypto? How to buy Ethereum using PayPal account

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello I’m Neil welcome back to the channel
excuse me 
we're on week five: every week I buy 100 pounds worth of cryptocurrency and then see what happens over time and every week I think long and hard about 
wussing out - even though it's raining - it's actually a thunderstorm at the moment 
I thought I’m gonna go through with it
this is my PayPal dashboard and I have been buying cryptocurrency using the PayPal account and... and this thing on my face is... it's a London taxi tattoo because it's the queen's jubilee weekend. 
obviously
let me recap where we're at 
so I have spent over four weeks: 408 pounds and four pence let's see how much that is worth in Bitcoin
the Bitcoin I’ve bought each week is now worth this figure here
381 pounds and five pence 
so I’m down by about nearly 30 pounds but I’ve got good hope for this 
my plan is if Bitcoin goes down in the week, then I buy Bitcoin and if it goes up in the last week then I will buy a different cryptocurrency
and it's been Bitcoin every week over the last four weeks
here is what Bitcoin has done in the last month 
you know red doesn't mean good apparently
let's see if Bitcoin has gone up in the last week 
it's gone green!
oh my goodness the value of Bitcoin has gone up by 4.17% in the last week
now this is... this is the first time this has happened in five weeks
it looks like it's had a little rally so it's a bit of a shame because I did want to keep buying on the way down but I’m going to play the rule 
Bitcoin has gone up so let's buy something else
now I’m going to buy something easy and vanilla because I’m scared and I could lose all of my money 
so I’m going to choose one of the three other currencies that PayPal offers in its crypto tab 
and it only offers these four currencies:
Bitcoin, Ethereum, litecoin and Bitcoin cash 
it's not going to be Bitcoin cash because that just sounds like a stupid made up cryptocurrency 
that's not Bitcoin but sounds a bit like it
also look at its logo 
it's just green with the “B” tilted to a slightly different angle 
I’m gonna go for Ethereum
I know nothing about this but I just thought I’m going to buy Bitcoin on the way down and buy other stuff on the way up so let's look at what Ethereum has done in the last week
it too has gone up it's almost as if it seems to do exactly what Bitcoin does
I’m sure that's not the case but every week when I sort of take a peek at it that's what seems to happen 
wow the rain seems to have ended this could be a good sign 
by the way where's my manners my name's Neil this is the Dad delivers vlog where I try something new every day
and I tried signing up to Binance and Coinbase or Etoro and each platform - firstly I’ve never heard of these companies and yet I have to hand over all my personal details, date of birth and personal documents 
Binance didn't even get back to me when I couldn't even get myself verified with them so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this crypto tab on my PayPal - regular PayPal account 
I’ve got no stake in that at the moment other than my dwindling Bitcoin reserves so today I guess I’m trying something new and that is:
I’m going to buy some Ethereum 
there's the graphic and the sound effect and I do that it's... it's a very complicated process but I... all I do is go down to this big buy button down here 
and then I type in what I want to buy
now it would be a hundred pounds on the nose but PayPal's fees drop one penny over 100 pounds:
the fee drops from 2.3 percent down to 2% so I saved 29 pence
Over 5 weeks that's very nearly 1 pound 50 so you know you're in good hands over here!
so I’m going to make this 100 pounds and - excuse me - one pence
I... I ate a lot at our jubilee party 
we had a street party I had a lot of bacon rashers
then I click on the big blue next button 
and now it's presenting me with a review and buy dialogue 
you can see my ETH - ETH - Ethereum
it's fluctuating as I’m dithering and talking with you
the transaction fee is two pounds so I’m going to pay 102 pounds and one pence
let's hit agree and buy 
I’ve done it
you purchased 0.0682 Ethereum and already my 100 pounds worth of Ethereum is worth 99 pounds and 45 pence 
I’ve... I’ve lost 50p just in the time it took to hit that button 
so what happens now
if I click on the crypto tab I’ve got two different cryptocurrencies
there are 18000 cryptocurrencies 
maybe somehow I’ll work my way through them
if you've got any... any tips or anything you would buy if it weren't Bitcoin or Ethereum
say hi in the comments and say what you would buy because as we know the best financial advice comes from YouTube comments 
I have a little uh summary here so I have spent 510 pounds and five pence and that 510 pounds worth of cryptocurrency is currently worth 480 pounds and 79 pence 
I have no idea if I’m going to see this through
I’m planning to do this every week for a year and I can barely afford that
I thought if I don't lose everything then at least I... I will still have some money and I’ll have the experience and your company to see me through this
and almost on cue the rain is now starting to fall quite heavily if you want to see what my cryptocurrencies are worth right now 
let's see in this playlist here down below is how I bought Bitcoin for the very first time on PayPal

How to change FLYMO BLADE and fit those weird spacers - Simpliglide 330 hover mower instructions



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello I’m Neil - this is the dad delivers vlog it's uh where I get to try something new each and every day and today I’m trying this 
this is a bit of a... I want to sit down but look I look a bit stupid behind... behind the Flymo
I know I’m going to commit to it 
today I’m trying this: I’m trying to remove the blade from a Flymo hover mower and this particular mower is no... I’m gonna stand up 
this is the Flymo simpliglide 330 and it's lovely 
I’ve got a link in the description to... to the mower and to all my other videos about this but I’ve never ever taken a blade off a mower or a Flymo before 
so I’m going to try it now on camera step by step so you can follow along 
you're probably aware of this but you need... you need a tool that came with the mower 
bizarrely we've managed to keep hold of ours - these always get lost and if yours is missing I’ve put a link in the description to one you can buy on amazon 
and I’m also trying this - there are spacers that come with the Flymo simplyglide 330 
which means that the... the blade is lower and that means your grass is shorter and I really like the idea of shorter grass and doing less mowing 
I guess we should just dive in 
it's got a strange hexagon shape on the bottom of this tool and that fits the bolt here exactly 
I’m sure you could probably do this with a... with a spanner but what I’ve quickly worked out is that you've got to hold the... the spinny thing here by the round thing 
not obviously by the blade because that would be quite painful I think and then you'll turn it anti-clockwise

like this

and the bolt is quite long so what I’ll probably do is take the tool off and then just turn it by hand 
Have you done this before? 
leave me a comment say hi it'd be good to hear from you 
you might need to do this if you are actually replacing a Flymo blade 
I’ll put a link to a brand new blade there 
ours isn't looking too good mainly because I keep running it over all kinds of stones in the garden and Casper's holes which are a challenge for me and the mower 
but I’m going to stick with this blade and you can see it's just this could come off really easily 
if you look even more closely there are some holes around the edge of where the bolt goes 
which is where the spacers come in 
I’ve got two sizes that came with this mower 
there's like a double width spacer and a slightly smaller spacer 
I’m going to... I want to go for the really short grass 
But I’m going to go for the wuss version just to... just to make sure it doesn't hit any stones or paving stones 
what's great with the spacer is that it's got these... these dots on 
it's got these two studs and the two studs should fit in the two large holes there 
and with my one there's there is a lot of debris in the... in the holes but if you just push it in to where you think the holes are it... it fits snug and it's actually flush with this uh spinning motor thing 
I’m going to put the blade back on and of course there's a right way and a wrong way to put the blade 
who said it had to be easy 
thankfully Flymo have put on one side “this side to grass” is actually etched engraved in the blade 
so I’m going to keep that side up and it looks as if the holes themselves they fit exactly on these studs on the spacer so that will stop the blade moving around independently 
then I’ll put the bolt back in and screw it up by hand 
I’m going to use the tool to tighten up the bolts for the final few turns and I’m going to hold the circle thing so I don't slice my hand 
I don't want to go too tightly and break the thing but I think that's tight enough 
that's not budging so now we're good to go 
don't forget if you need these tools I do have links to them down... down below in the description 
this is my mower after changing the blades spacing it seems to work 
it seems to be going 
I’m calling this a dad delivers success! 
right here are all my other garden videos and thanks for watching good luck with your Flymo 
can you please help my daddy get 10000 subscribers just click on his face thanks bye! alright this is gonna be the proper one right

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello welcome back to the channel 
can I put up this IKEA Kullen chest of drawers up in half an hour - 30 minutes? 
I’ve got a clock back there - it's five o'clock let's see if I can get this done by half five

This is what it looks like once it's put up 
but I don't know if I can do that in half an hour so that's the challenge with this video 
precious instructions! 
this is the dad delivers vlog 
it's where we try to do something new every single day and today I’m going to try and put up an IKEA thing in under half an hour 
that has never happened 
we're going to be using this as a bedside cabinet - bedside table for my son's bedroom - we put a new IKEA bed the NEIDEN bed 
a link to that is in the description and up above but let's get through this first 
here's the precious bag of bits 
oh no there's nails in here! 
I’ve got to do nails!

I think these are drawer runners - so I need to put these in four of these in

need screwdriver now

these are dowels that have to go into these pieces 
okay I’m 10 minutes in already, so I’ve already lost a third of my time just doing the first two things

This is a regular thing - trying to get the dowels to line up on an IKEA thing - I never manage to do it right

And then you get the bolt and the allen key and we'll put these screws in the side 
I need to put four of these things down 
ah dammit put them in the wrong hole!

Right I’m over halfway through for time 
it's 5:15 got under half the time left 
I’ve got to hold those bolts in place with these 
oh that's clever 
okay so you put that on and they've given you a little nail holder so you hold the nail with this

Oh right so this helps you to distance the nail - so you put the nail in here

I’m gonna wing it without the holder now

I feel like I should be getting them in with like two hits

That's the family coming back 
The dog is gonna run straight through this! 
I’ve got one minute remaining

And then we put this side on 
that's half an hour I’m giving myself five minute time bonus for not having the screwdriver so leave a comment if you think I deserve another five minutes

let's watch out because there's usually bits of sawdust in there that stops them biting 
and then I slide the baseboard in make sure the white side is up 
and they hold on with these plastic things 
I love these you get to really hammer them 
I can't see my hammering face 
oh fantastic so we're at the end all they do is slide in there's no complicated mechanism... he says

The Kullen two drawer side chest of drawers with two drawers 
did it and there's proof uh five minutes uh sort of 
I’m calling that a win I don't care that was half an hour 
this is what they look like and yeah like I say the... the drawers are a bit stiff to pull out at first but I’m sure that will wear down over time 
it's just one thing here I’m sure I’ll watch over the footage can you see this bump here? 
which looks like oh no was that my hammering? 
oh it might have been my hammering 
that is why you should use the hammering tool I... I went for it 
that's a shame okay that was my fault 
usually I damage it by over screwing and just going too far in 
hopefully my son won't notice 
please don't be shy hit that thumbs up button and subscribe button I’m still trying to get to a thousand subscribers so we get some money from youtube 
so thanks if you do manage to hit either of those buttons and right here is what youtube thinks you should be watching next! 
good luck can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers just click on his face, thanks bye how was that?

Best wooden MONKEY BARS for kids and garden? Dunster House kids climbing frame



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

are you thinking about this? 
monkey bars for your kids?
in the garden?!
I am sharing how to put these up step by step from start to finish 
and it's all speeded up but you'll still manage to see my pain and pretty much all of the mistakes I make along the way this is the big Christmas present for our daughter you know the big massive one 
and she had no idea this is what was coming so I had to lie to her like this! 
so can you do me a favour 
I’ve got some fencing to build for mummy 
yeah 
for... it’s a Christmas present 
so she can put plants up it
Oh nice!
So could you make sure she doesn't come up to the end of the garden 
okay all right thanks 
it's fencing 
yeah 
I love by the way that I have absolutely no problem lying to her but anyway that's one jeopardy that she's gonna work it out and completely spoil the big surprise and ruin Christmas 
the second massive problem is that I’m doing this on Christmas eve and I’ve only got five hours of daylight to put these monkey bars together am I gonna do it on time 
hello I’m Neil this is the dad delivers vlog where I try something new every day and today I’m trying to put these monkey bars together and not ruin Christmas
[MUSIC]
okay this is crucial these grooves have to face down 
because this bar - this is gonna be the... the top of the monkey bars
[MUSIC]
it is really difficult trying to get both bars onto the rungs at the same time 
I just had spent ages moving left and right trying to feed them into the holes 
you push them in one end, they come out the other 
can you see what I’m doing wrong 
I can't figure this out at all
[MUSIC]
the rungs are done yes 
now the pressure's on slightly 
hang on that shouldn't be turning 
oh my god 
of course I’ve messed up a couple of these 
I think you're supposed to put the screws kind of nearer the edge so they don't turn around like this
so I’ll probably do these ones again just to not have them broken

now we have to do the same for the legs either side of this top bar that goes along the top there 
it will look like this 
so I’m going to build those sidebars now and I’ve got to make sure that the... the rungs go uh the right way up you know that the flat bits on the rungs are the right bit up 
but here you can see me screwing 
I’m screwing it a bit more carefully now I’m putting the screws in closer to the edge of the bar that the rungs go into otherwise if you put them in dead centre they just miss the run completely and they just spin around

it's at this point that I need to make a really important phone call 
so is there any chance of a cup of coffee 
how's it going 
it's... it's going 
do you want a biscuit as well?

so here I am fitting the... the other side bar onto the rungs and hopefully this time now the wrongs won't fall out when I am trying to squeeze the bars in 
squeeze the rungs into this sidebar 
oh man 
I don't know if this is coming across on screen but it is raining quite heavily now 
got my coffee in the uh ellen mug 
I think ellen would approve of how it's coming together 
or she'd just yell at me for doing it wrong 
we're now at a really crucial stage that could go horribly wrong because I need to now put the bars up together 
as you can see here you bolt the top row of rungs to these side rungs so that they form ladders either side 
and they're... there I am bolting - bolting it together 
the instructions are very specific about the order of bolts and nuts and washers and a cap on the end there 
so I’m just gonna bolt this together 
but this is the point where my daughter is gonna... she's gonna see what it is 
I don't think she's gonna buy that this is fencing at all

they're watching coco uh in there at the moment 
what I’ve done is I’ve got them to close the curtains so my daughter thinks we're hiding this from mummy 
oh and here's another gift from Dunster House: the screws don't match the dimensions in the instructions 
so it's taking me five minutes to work out these are the screws that I need 
it's difficult to tell from the picture in the instructions but I think you need to take this bar and this is what sets it at 45 degrees 
so if it aligns with the top there and you screw it into the top there and then into the side of the ladder there 
and that's what gives you your exact 45 degrees for the ladders 
so I’m now sheltering from the rain because these instructions Dunster House 
they are absolutely impenetrable and you just can't tell from the drawings what side and where these bits of wood are supposed to go 
plus my daughter is now playing on the trampoline over there 
I think she sort of still believes me that it's a pergola

well I got it on but I’m not sure that that works very well because... and in the instructions it says 1010 goes behind but it doesn't because it... it doesn't fit and it hangs out the other end so that can't be right
I’m getting really wet and fed up with this now

this is so difficult I don't I don't know where this goes 
the instructions are not very good 
so I ran out of time I think I think I’ve got this

so this is a two-person job

they say put 70mm screws into this bar 
look what happens when you do that 
it comes straight through the other end 
Dunster House 
another Dunster House quality instruction there 
straight through that 
it's too long 
there you go play time kids

so somehow I managed to not ruin Christmas and six months on you can see they're still standing 
the kids love them 
here's my review though 
they take a day and a half to put up for me 
maybe it's just me but I also found the instructions that come with them absolutely abysmal 
they arrive as just a big pile of wood and they're not cheap but if you want these exact ones there's a link down below in the description 
good luck with your monkey bars

MOW WITH ME and my Flymo Simpliglide 330 hover mower



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello welcome back to the channel 
welcome back to the garden! 
my unstoppable wife and I absolutely love watching vloggers like Emily Norris and Brummymummyof2 - and they do videos regularly called “shop with me” or “clean with me” where you get to follow along with them and you... you see them do their shopping and their cleaning 
I’m neil and this is the dad delivers Vlog where I try something new each and every day and today I’m trying this... 
I’m going to try “Mow with me” 
which is just a video of me mowing the lawn 
now obviously this is the first time I’ve done this so I have no idea how it's going to go 
I hate mowing the lawn and I don't know why
[MUSIC]
it might be because I always leave it too late to cut the grass?
[MUSIC]
so it gets really long
[MUSIC]
and you know makes it just that little bit harder to mow
[MUSIC]
I like the mower 
I actually love the mower as an object 
this is the Flymo simply glide 330 and I actually paid for this with my own money
[MUSIC]
as a gadget it's really pleasing 
I like the shape 
I really like the colour 
how did they know that orange goes great with green? 
that must have been deliberate that that could not have been by chance
[MUSIC]
it's not perfect 
when I unboxed it there was a giant crack on the spinning drum inside 
I keep meaning to contact Flymo to see if they want to send me a new hover mower instead? 
maybe a more advanced one or a smaller one for me to review? 
but instead of going to the hassle of contacting Flymo is probably easy to you know... just mow the lawn first
[MUSIC]
I call it a lawn but there are more holes than grass 
this is Casper 
he's featured on the channel before and these are Casper’s trenches 
There is a whole network of trenches 
a network of holes 
just fell down one 
that's how deep it is just to show you how deep this is
[MUSIC]
when my brother-in-law Andy wanted to do some gardening he joked that Casper could help him with the digging 
and so off Casper went to work 
look at him go! 
did he just push you out the way?
“Get out the way - It’s my hole!”
[MUSIC]
anyway back to the mowing
[MUSIC]
this terrain is treacherous 
I’ve let the grass grow all over the holes 
I could set Casper onto finding the holes for me but even he forgets where they are - falls into them from time to time 
that's half of the lawn done so far 
didn't take long but I think I’m going to do the rest of it tomorrow
[MUSIC]
there are also objects in the grass 
some are fun 
some are fluffy and some are utterly foul 
oh I have a casualty - oops
[MUSIC]
the Flymo Simpliglide 330 blade will make short work of that 
oh I hope it was the dog
[MUSIC]
I’m going to do this section here and I’m going to probably speed it up a little bit
[MUSIC]
what is it? 
what is it that's primal where short grass is what we want 
what we want to step on 
what we want to smell 
that's if you don't hit the logs left around by Casper
[MUSIC]
but most of all I don't know why I hate mowing the lawn
[MUSIC]
this part’s a bit tricky because there are so many stones hidden in the grass 
that they are supposed to be around the hut but Casper likes just picking them up and having a chew and then dropping them wherever
[MUSIC]
Solar light
[MUSIC]
the Flymo Simpliglide is good 
it's a little heavy 
I think the Flymo turbo lite might be a little better for us... or for me
[MUSIC]
Flymo if you're watching - I’d love for you to be involved in my next mow with me 
but it seems to have survived 
this is what the blade looks like after a long long session 
looks like a bit chipped on the side 
obviously I can't believe that you're still watching this 
you've seen... seen it through right to the end 
I’ve left some bits there in the middle probably do those uh later on in the year 
And my junk corner where I dumped all the stuff so it wouldn't damage the... the mower
obviously not mown that bit yet 
anyway thanks for coming along with my mow with me 
and right here is what YouTube thinks you should be watching next 
can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers just click on his face
thanks bye how was that!

I spent £400 on Bitcoin and THIS happened



How much my Bitcoin is worth NOW is on this playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZfK4GUTQWxGnONg5Qk4Vun4n3U69NKae

I bought £400 Bitcoin directly from PayPal, using my regular personal PayPal account: just using the crypto tab. I'm buying £100 over each consecutive week... 
See how much it's worth now!

I spent £400 on Bitcoin and THIS happened



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello welcome back to the channel this is week four of my painful cryptocurrency experiments 
every week I’ve been buying 100 pounds worth British of cryptocurrency and I’ve just hit another weekend and this is the... this is the fourth week I’m doing this 
which means it's a month and look at what's happened in a month that I’ve been doing this 
I think the value of Bitcoin which is what I’ve bought 
I’ll tell you why in a moment 
it's gone down by at least a third 
there's the exact percentage there 
but that was always the plan 
I’ve got to somehow now hold my nerve and keep going which is why it's six o'clock on a Sunday 
I do this every weekend and I’ve waited till the last possible moment I think because I want to wuss out 
but I’m going to keep going and I’m doing this in the... the easiest way possible which is through my PayPal account 
this is just my regular PayPal account and I’ve been I’ve been buying 100 pounds every week of Bitcoin 
so let's go into my dashboard now and I’ll show you exactly what is going on 
you can click on this tab here it's the second tab in I think because PayPal really want to plug this at the moment 
and that will take us into my crypto holdings 
and there is how much I have spent at the moment 
I want to say invested but it's not 
I’m just throwing money into a hole and this could go horribly wrong 
I could lose all of this 
very well aware of that 
but that's part of the experiment 
will I be able to not blink and keep doing this for a year 
I really can't afford this but I’m gonna see it through because there might be an upside 
now I make this graphic every week and I never show it because I always cover it with electronic graphics but I’m gonna show you exactly what I’ve spent in four weeks 
so every week I put in 100 pounds which after fees is actually 102 pounds and one pence 
so the first week I did it and a week later it was worth 83 pounds 
the second week I put another 102 pounds in and that 204 pounds is now worth 178 so last week I did it for a third time 
taking the total to 306 pounds and three pence 
and as you can see on screen now let's punch it up 
that 306 pounds is now worth 268 pounds 75 pence 
and that's going to fluctuate while I’m speaking 
and the rule that I’m playing - it's a really simple rule 
if Bitcoin goes down in the week then I will buy another 100 pounds of Bitcoin 
if it goes up I will start to buy other crypto currencies 
I know for a fact the first one I’m going to try is ethereum 
just because that is also available on the PayPal account here 
and I’m doing this on PayPal because I’ve tried signing up to other platforms 
I tried binance couldn't get verified and then couldn't get a reply from binance as to why I couldn't get verified 
it just looked really sketchy 
I nearly signed up with coinbase or etoro 
I’ve not gone through that yet because I just couldn't face more data mining and just handing over my date of birth and vital personal documents to yet another platform 
Then I discovered that PayPal were offering it just as part of their regular PayPal account so I’m doing it the lazy vanilla way to start with 
and if Bitcoin starts going up then I’ll start to explore other platforms and other cryptocurrencies 
there are 18000 cryptocurrencies out there 
if you were me - leave in the comment which crazy fruity cryptocurrency you would try next if you were in my position 
because you know the best financial advice does come from YouTube comments right? 
anyway let's go in and buy another hundred pounds worth of crypto 
all I need to do is to click the Bitcoin button there 
now that looks nice and green and going up but that's just the last 24 hours
let's see what it's done in a month so when I started Bitcoin was worth about 30000 pounds per Bitcoin 
over the month it has gently rolled down all the way down to here 
it's now worth about 23000 pounds which is a drop of 24% in a month 
the big figure I want to see is what it's done in the last week 
Bitcoin has dropped 3.42% so my... my rule for this experiment is if it drops I’m gonna buy another 100 pounds worth of Bitcoin 
if I scroll down I can see that big bad blue buy button 
oh no that sell! 
not yet 
buy 
there we go buy Bitcoin 
and I explain this every week but PayPal's fees for 100 pounds or up to 100 pounds is 2.3% and if you go a penny over it drops to 2% so we're going to go for that so I’m going to type in 100 pounds and one pence then click next 
there goes my sharpie 
so review and buy we still see it going up and down while I’m speaking but this will buy 0.0042 Bitcoin 
there's the transaction fee of two pounds so I will agree and buy 102 pounds and one pence 
you purchased 0.00428064 Bitcoin! 
yeah so right now at the time of recording I have put in 408 pounds and 4 pence and that 408 pounds is currently worth 367 pounds 93. 
what's it gonna do in the next week? 
and if you want to see what my Bitcoin is worth right now it's all up here 
my latest video is at the top of this playlist here and if you're interested in perhaps buying some Bitcoin or cryptocurrency using PayPal 
I go through the whole system and that's in that video there 
can you please help my daddy get 10000 subscribers just click on his face thanks bye alright this is going to be the proper one right

Buying Bitcoin using the crypto tab on Paypal - I blew £300 on Bitcoin... what is it worth now



How much my Bitcoin is worth NOW is on this playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZfK4GUTQWxGnONg5Qk4Vun4n3U69NKae

I bought £300 Bitcoin directly from my PayPal account - using the crypto tab - over 3 consecutive weeks... 
See how much it's worth now!

I blew £300 on Bitcoin... what is it worth now?



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

if you've clicked on this video you're probably thinking about maybe buying some Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency 
I was exactly in your position two weeks ago and then for the first time I… I spotted that PayPal has this crypto tab 
and if you click on that you can actually buy Bitcoin through PayPal so I wondered what would happen if I bought Bitcoin every week for a year?
would I make some money or would I very much lose all of my money?
so here we are on the on the third week of this experiment it's good to see you 
hello my name's Neil and I'm out in the garden today 
you can probably hear some of the neighbours doing some essential garden maintenance in the background…
I’m not. 
I'm here just throwing money into a hole with no hope or prospects for any guarantee of what might happen next 
and if this is something you are interested in doing I thought I'd make these videos,  so that you can follow along with me and we can see together if this is going to be good news or bad news 
I have a feeling it hasn't been a good week - so let's go into the dashboard now 
this is… this is just a normal PayPal account and up here at the time of recording there is this tab here 
it says “crypto” 
second tab in 
they really… I think they really want us to use this 
if you click on that button it opens up this crypto dashboard and this figure right here 178 pounds 50 shows what my Bitcoin is worth 
so this isn’t… this isn't good news 
on the first week I put in 102 pounds and one pence so I invested 100 pounds plus fees and then last week - I’m doing this every weekend by the way - so I'm a few days out but I put in another 102 pounds and one pence so in total I am down 204 pounds and 2 pence and that 204 quid is now worth this - 178 pounds 77 
but this is the reason why I wanted to do this every week 
I'm going to do this every week for a year and the rule is… 
well let's go in and see what Bitcoin is doing this week… so you click on… so it looks like it's going up 
but that's just the last 24 hours 
if I click on the one week button, it is down three percent from last week 
my rule is if Bitcoin goes down in the week then I'll buy another 100 pounds worth 
if it goes up then I'll look at buying another cryptocurrency 
probably Ethereum because that's one of the four currencies that PayPal let you buy 
we can see here that we are down on the last week, so that makes things really simple 
let's buy another hundred pounds worth of Bitcoin 
and to do that it's really easy on the… on the PayPal site 
I can just click on this big buy button down here and it brings up the buy Bitcoin dialogue 
and you can do this on your phone, on your mobile device with a PayPal app 
I've got a video explaining how that works 
it's in the description and on screen now but I'm going to do this on desktop so you can follow along with me 
and we are going to put in 100 pounds and one pence 
now the reason I've gone one pence over is because of the fees that PayPal charges 
there's a little bump where it's 2.3% fee 
if it's a hundred pounds and it goes down to two percent at one pence over a hundred pounds and so I save 29 pence and I need every penny right now 
so let's click on the next button and that brings up this dialogue here 
choose a funding source 
you can take it from your PayPal funds so long as your PayPal balance is more than what you want to buy plus fees 
well I haven't got that in there right now so I'm going to take it from my bank account and it brings up a review and buy window 
so this week my 100 pounds at the moment buys 0.0041Bitcoin and this is the bit that tickles me every week 
that figure fluctuates while I wait 
while I’m… while I'm talking away you can see it just fluctuating away 
it also explains that the transaction fee for this is two pounds so I'm actually going to pay 102 pounds and one pence which is what I'm paying every week so I'm going to click on the agree and buy button there you go 
you purchased 0.413728 Bitcoin so I'll write that on my chart and it's another week of buying Bitcoin 
I have now spent - what’s that 306 pounds and three pence and that 306 pounds is currently worth 277 pounds 93 pence and that's going to fluctuate while I'm speaking so let's see if that goes up or down 
but in the next week, if Bitcoin goes up in value I'll choose one of these other currencies that you can buy on PayPal only because I'm lazy and because I tried signing up with another platform 
I tried Binance - couldn’t even get verified and I looked into Coinbase and Etoro and some others but this just looked at this by far and away looked like the easiest thing to do because I've got a PayPal account 
I think I would go for Ethereum regardless of whether it goes up or down 
if this is something that you're interested in doing - you crazy fool - good luck to you because up here is what my Bitcoin is worth right now 
I'll update that playlist as we go along and down here is how I did this in the first place 
how to buy crypto on PayPal 
can you please help my daddy get 10000 subscribers just click on his face thanks bye 
alright this is going to be the proper one right

How to buy BITCOIN with PAYPAL APP for beginners like me



How much my Bitcoin is worth NOW is on this playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZfK4GUTQWxGnONg5Qk4Vun4n3U69NKae

Can you buy Bitcoin directly from PayPal? Yes! 
In this video I show how easy it is to buy Bitcoin using only the Paypal app and the Crypto tab.

How to buy BITCOIN with PAYPAL APP for beginners like me



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello welcome back to the happy hut 
can you buy Bitcoin on PayPal using just the PayPal app? 
that's what I'm going to do in this video 
hello I'm Neil and this is the Dad delivers vlog 
I try something new every single day and today I'm going to buy some Bitcoin using PayPal only on the phone and oh my goodness what a roller coaster it's been 
this is the graph for what Bitcoin has done in the last week 
I know there are all kinds of disclaimers with this video that I need to work through with you but what I'm going to do is you and I are going to buy some Bitcoin together using using just a PayPal account 
This time last week I bought Bitcoin for the very first time in my life 
this is my very first crypto currency purchase 
I had tried to get onto a proper Bitcoin cryptocurrency website and I just I just failed 
I couldn't get verified with one of them and the thought of having to hand all my personal details over to a site that I've never heard of to buy… to buy something that I'll never see and have no idea about was a little bit of a too big a step for me to do 
so I was really shocked when I found out that PayPal now has this crypto tab at the top and I bought 100 pounds 
as an experiment I bought 100 pounds of Bitcoin 
there's lots of things wrong with this picture 
firstly is that I'm dabbling in cryptocurrency at all but it's thrilling you know it's a bit of a gamble 
the second problem is that it's not real cryptocurrency 
I mean we're being told by PayPal that they're good for it and you are actually buying Bitcoin but it's not buying it in the way that the cryptocurrency community buy it which is to actually get it properly electronically 
basically PayPal hold it for me and I know there's that phrase isn't it - if you don't have the key you don't have the coin - but I sort of like the protection that comes from letting someone else deal with that 
even though I'm paying quite a… a saucy fee for that 
I lose my keys to the house 
I can't imagine what I'd be like with keys to crypto currency but it was my way of buying Bitcoin for the first time so I bought… 
look I've got a little graphic here that I've made myself…
so I bought a hundred pounds worth of Bitcoin 
it's a hundred and 100 pounds of one pence 
I am now going to see if I'm going to buy another 100 pounds worth of Bitcoin using the PayPal app 
here's my PayPal app right here and you can see that my 102 pound investment including fees is now worth a whopping 83 pounds 99 pence 
this is just my regular uh PayPal account 
if I click on that crypto button there it takes me into the crypto tab so yeah… the value… the value of it has gone down quite a lot 
now the rule that I'm playing as I… I don't know how long I'm going to do this for 
in my head I'd like to do this every week for a year and just uh play with a hundred pounds every week 
the rule that I'm going to play is that if the Bitcoin has gone down in the week I will buy more Bitcoin 
and if it doesn't go down in a week I will then buy other crypto currencies on PayPal and maybe I'll venture out onto another platform and buy one of the what… 18000 crypto currencies out there 
PayPal only offers four cryptocurrencies 
I'm going to stick with Bitcoin for this week because it has fallen in the week 
we're now going to go into buy 
I'm going to press the buy button 
buy Bitcoin 
now the fees we covered this in the in the last video 
if you click on the fees button it shows you the current fees 
obviously it shows you the current fees for buying crypto and if I go one penny over the 100 pounds, the fee comes down a little bit so I'll save what… 29 pence so if I go back to buy Bitcoin I'm going to type in 100 pounds and one pence and click next 
so it's showing me what my 100 pounds would buy and it’s… it looks like 0.004 
that figure that's fluctuating before my very eyes and so I'd pay another 102 pounds and one pence 
by continuing you understand that crypto isn't regulated its value fluctuates and you can lose money if the value drops 
yes I… I agree and buy 
so click that big blue button at the bottom there 
I've got that's it 
I've just bought my second batch of Bitcoin 
I have invested gambled thrown into the wind 204 pounds and two pence and that is now worth 182 pounds 84 pence 
is this something that you do already or is this something you you're thinking of doing? 
say hi in the comments it'd be great to hear from you and I'm going to try and show up every week and see how this this experiment goes by putting in 100 pounds and one penny in each week 
it could be going better but I'm hoping that if I keep buying on the way down eventually when it starts to come up maybe… maybe good things will happen 
if you want to see what my Bitcoin is worth right now or all of my cryptocurrency purchases I've got a whole playlist that's on the video up here 
and down here is a video all about how you can buy Bitcoin for the very first time on PayPal 
can you please help my daddy get 1000 subscribers just click on his face 
thanks bye how was that

How to renew UK Passport for a child or name change by deed poll



How do you renew a child's UK Passport - and how do you renew if the childs name has changed by deed poll? I go through the exact process step by step by ordering a British Passport online for a child in real time... AND I show how to renew that British Passport if the kids name is different.

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

Okay 
Your Mum
[LAUGHTER]
Hello I’m Neil, welcome back to the channel.
How do you renew a UK passport online for a child?
And also how do you renew a British passport for a child whose name has been changed by deed poll?
I am applying for a British passport right now.
It won't look like this.
I think they now look blue like this, because being able to travel and live freely across 27 nations was apparently too easy... but I’m going to be applying step by step in real time so you can follow along with me.
And hopefully avoid all of the mistakes that I make along the way - and you and me have got to get this done before that holiday, right? 
There's a link in the description below so you can follow along.
This is what the gov.UK website looks like and we are on “Get a passport for your child”.
I am going to scroll down to the “start now” button.
Do you live in the UK?
Yes! 
And it's brought up this list of how to apply, so let's hit “continue”.
“Date of birth” 
Now I’m going to put in all these details for the child not for me.
The next page says “How to get a digital passport photo”.
You could either do this by using a photo shop or a booth.
That's a photo with a code, or down here: I like the look of this.
“Take a digital photo at home”. 
I think we'll try that one, so you either have a code to enter or “I’ll take and upload a digital photo”.
I’m going to do that.
“How to take a digital passport photo”.
Now obviously this is really important because if you get this wrong, the punishment is: you stay in this country.
We need a plain background.
The lighting needs to be even with no shadows, and you need to be far enough back from your child to get in their head shoulders and upper body.
They have to have a plain expression because, you know, since 2022 the technology can't cope with any kind of emotion.
No headwear. Unless it's for religious or medical reasons.
I’m going to click on the “continue” button, so now it's time for me to take this picture.
I’ve got to find him first.
Hiya, I’ve got to take your photo for the passport.
I need to find a plain background, so if you stand in the hallway... um oh wow that's quite good.
Well that could have gone a lot worse, so upload your photo.
Choose your photo and you get a result! 
I need these on all of my photos of my kids I think...
“The photo result is good”.
I’m going to hit continue.
“Do you want to submit this photo” so I’m going to tick: “Yes, this photo meets the rules”.
Have you had a UK passport before? 
So I’m going to hit “yes”.
Is your passport lost or stolen?
When was your passport issued?
“Is your passport damaged?” 
So it has deduced, “based on your answers, you are renewing a child passport”.
“If you want to change the name on this passport we'll ask for the details later on”.
At the time of recording it costs 49 pounds on the website.
At time of recording the processing time is 10 weeks to receive the new passport.
And if you're watching this video in a blind panic because you have urgent travel needs you can call the passport advice line.
I’ll put that number in the description below, so next I’ll fill in the application details.
I’m going to click “I’m ready to continue” so we need the old passport details next.
We'll need the new passport details and this question here is obviously crucial if your child's name has changed.
“Did you use this name on your old passport?” and then we'll click on “continue”. Previous names: tell us the name on your old passport.
Gender. You're only given two choices.
Were you born in the UK?
The next section is just as enlightened: parents details.
They want mother or “parent 1” and father or “parent 2”. 
I’m very much a parent 2.
Were they married or in a civil partnership?
Oh no it wants my date of marriage.
Oh I can remember it - I’ve got it...
Hiya I’m just checking because it's for the passport office... I just want to double check our date of our marriage?
“What’s does that have to do with the passport?”
I know! 
Do you know what, if you... if you're not a mother and father you're known as parent 1 and parent 2?
How do you decide who's parent 1?
Next it wants the town of birth, country of birth, nationality for the mother... you know the nationality is British even though it's a UK passport. It's bullocks. 
And then it wants the details of the father or parent number 2.
[MUSIC: I’M NUMBER 2!]
Next we'll put in details of our home address and email and mobile phone.
You know if we get this wrong they're gonna round us up in one of those uh... one of those ice cream vans they've got driving around.
“Immigration Enforcement.” 
“You will immigrate!” 
There are two sizes of passports: there's the standard size.
I’m just going to go for the 34 page one.
It’d be lucky if we go anywhere this year.
All passport holders age 12 and older must sign the new passport when they receive it.
There's a summary of the application.
I won't show you mine, so what I’ve got to do now is send the old passport.
You've got to post them the deed poll or similar documents about the name change and one of the following.
Ugh, thought it’d be too easy.
A signed statement from everyone with parental responsibility and one of the following from the last 12 months.
And now we'll get to pay to prove that you are a British citizen and then you have to tick a box as a declaration.
My payment has gone through.
I know you've got 101 questions.
I’ve put a link in the description for all the links to the passport office that will hopefully answer your questions.
Give my best wishes to parent number 2. 
Say hi in the comments, it'd be great to hear from you.
Good luck, you're going on holiday!
Can you please help my daddy get 10000 subscribers.
Just click on his face thanks bye! Alright, this is going to be the proper one right.
