You are doing brilliant with the irish, i say every year im going to learn and never do! So so impressed!

Well done!

Wow, long time no see! Nice to have you back!

I can't tell if you're saying it all right, but it's very pleasant on my English ears to hear it! You're making good progress, the house will appreciate your efforts I'm sure! Collette is getting some pretty good skills there, tell her to make a couple of saw horses to save her poor back and knees though! It'll make everything so much easier for her if you get everything up and off the floor when making things. Keep up the great work, it's looking good! 🏚️ < > 🏠✨

You're doing so well with the Irish language and the woodworking 👍 skills you have em' 😎

You’re making magnificent progress in Irish! You have my full admiration! Great work Colette from another Colette!

Is foghlaimeoir mé freisin. Thosaigh mé ag foghlaim an teanga ar lein cúpla bliain ó shin, agus mé ag iarraidh teach a cheannach in Éirinn. Is maith liom a bheith ag léamh agus ag scríobh as Gaeilge, ach tá sé deacair labhairt agus tuiscint. Tá tú in ann labhairt go han-mhaith. Comhghairdeas leat!

How much land do you own?

How are you guys? Still alive🤔

Welcome to Ireland 🇮🇪. And it might seem daunting at times but keep the long term plan in your heads and it will work...best of luck 🤞

Do you not think that you are far too old for blue hair?

Ever heard of putty?

You sound very unhappy to me

You can get a secondary glazing kit it's a sort of cling film you stick over your windows with double sided tape then use a hair dryer to get the film taught, makes ahuge difference. insulating your ceilig space above with kingspan type sheet beteewn the rafters is the best by far though,

So so interesting to watch. It looks an absolutely massive challenge and the hardships are obvious. But I imagine as things get done there must be a lot of satisfaction in that. Looking forward to seeing your progress. I thought my renovation was a big one but yours will be such a reward as you get there. Lovely to have all the land aswell. Becky

This title had me thinking you was actually living in an abandoned house but after looking further you have purchased it and are renovating it..

I would love to live like that.

It will be beautiful again someday😊

Get a mosquito net for the bed, or drape smthg across it to keep those buggers out of your bed ! Phew ! God bless yall ! ❤ 🙏🏻

Fantastic video guys really glad i found your channel looking forward to watching the rest of your videos

well done every step counts

With all due respect looks like a complete Palace when you look at some of the properties dodgy landlords are trying to let

This is brilliant. It's tough, but you're doing what every second person who lives in a crowded town, noisy terraced house, or shitty apartment, wants to do. Godspeed to you both, and welcome to Ireland. I hope you're treated well. No need to mention Horace because he's just found his heaven.

If you have a lot of rock and know how to mix cement.try making a Rocket stove.

Not sure if your in Ireland or not but if you are my advice would be to mingle....you'd be pleasantly surprised as who would help you out here and there.......love your dog..

Me and my husband did exactly the same. In our first weeks we had no hot water then no water at all temporarily. We showered at our workplace. Once a week we treated ourselves to the local travel lodge and had a bath. We put in new electrics and at one point had no electricity. We used a barbeque to cook outside

Woodlice are repelled by peppermint scents and cinnamon and oregano scents.

I honour what you are doing in preserving nature ❤

I have just discovered your channel and very much look forward to seeing how things progress. The very best of luck with everything. I'm a keen birdwatcher and lover of the land also who lives over the border from you in the north of Ireland on the co down coast

How much land do you have?

I dont know if you have woodland trust in Ireland, but you can get free trees

It has a chimney so surely you can have an open fire

Really happy for you I enjoyed watching your video this morning. All the best of Luck! You're doing something alot of us would like to do. It seems to make sense considering the world we're in today. And yes maybe a pity about not doing it a decade ago, only because your materials would have been cheaper. Am guessing that's part of the struggle too. Anyway, all the very best and good luck

Others have said it but there are grants available for derelict houses here in Ireland that you may be able to avail of. Good luck :)

It’s not yours. The brass neck of you

Fantastic video, good luck with the project. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I used to use a watering can as a shower, one kettle per fill works great. Although I now enjoy home comforts but still remember those days and thankful for what I have

Deeks like Ireland where I half from Put on that hoodie keep warm use your body heat

Nothing wrong with that house u can make it absolutely gorgeous if u have the right mindset and money 💯👍

Are yous claiming the house as your own and making it habitable? I've always wanted correct information on doing so

Just buy an old caravan for £500 live in that.

Hi guys someone may have already suggested but a cheap touring caravan would make life easier to live out of until you get a bit more done on the house

All the best folks! 😘😘

So your squating then?

The problem is living like this will have long term affects on your physical health. Whatever makes you happy but be in no doubt your are absolutely shortening your life.

As a previous poster said: make 1 room spic and span, so it's nice (and warm) to retreat to after a day's work. Maybe have a look into 'diesel heaters' as a temporary solution to heat up a room. They are amazing and cheap! A wood/coal stove could be perfect for your house. Maybe look for a second hand one? To get a shower going: look for one of those camping shower units that work with a gaz bottle. I've been using one of them for years already. One 10 liter gaz bottle lasts me for 18 months. (I live alone). To make meals: get a normal, old stove that used to work with gaz. Connect the same kind of gaz bottle as is used for the camping shower and you can cook like a queen (or king)!! For the windows: I used plexi-glass to put in front of the glass windows. You can go as fancy as you want with the finish. You can make a wooden frame with plexi that fits in front of the old window. They also prevent the windows from getting wet with condensation. Good luck! You live in a gorgeous place!

way back, we lived in a house in Sweden that had not been lived in for decades, no mains water (it was from a well), no electricity , no plumbing of any sort, the toilet was a shed at the end of the garden... showered in another shed, cooked on a wood burning stove... It was the best time we had, a lot of fun....

Improvising in the difficult times will make you appreciate when you are fully sorted all the more..best wishes.
