Nothing tastes nicer than freshly picked home grown produce
100% tastier ;)
it was a fantastic amount of work building that wall,, and then the breaking of the large rock and that's just the things wee see, you folks must sleep well at night
Be safe
Hi Scott !!! we do fell asleep in 5 min .. actually !!! That's good !!! G
The lake could not be more beautiful and inviting. I can only imagine how wonderful it felt after so much hard work. Gi, the garden is outstanding, as I knew it would be. Andrius, I have so much respect for you as you perservere with the rock situation. I don't think you have to be concerned about anything, because Guffy is definitely overseeing it all!❤
Thank you Linda!!! yes Guffy would tell us if we would do something wrong ;) Thank you for watching us and for lovely compliments Gxxx
Eventually that big old rock will be cut into submission!
Nice to see you harvesting beautiful vegetables from garden!
Thank you Paulette !!! We actually eating from garden for a month I think .. it's just so rewording and so much easier to live sustainable when it's summer time !!! That's why I want to do more preservation so we could eat veg during winter and spring :) But it comes with time and each year will be easier and it is nice to share it and get compliments like yours !!! It makes me very happy and proud :) Thank you once again Gxxx
It’s really nice to see your dream home shaping up…best of luck and lots of love ❤️❤️❤️🌹🙏🏻🌹
Fantastic work on that rock, Andrias! You two are such an inspiration with your courage, determination and sense of humour. Fantastic work!
Thank you very much Ray !!! you are very kind to us :) See you on the next one .. have a good week ahead Gxxx
Another step forward in the patio build, hard work but you’re both getting there well done.😊😊
Thank you :) If I might say I don't even think it's so hard .. I think doing the roof will be more challenging and harder. Thank you or watching us :) Gxxx
That swimming hole looks luscious.. and Guffy appreciates every moment of time spent there..
My goodness G, those Onions are beautiful.. I’m intrigued by the cucumber recipe. I’ve not seen a quick one like that before.
A, you are tenacious.. the rock will give up, it will, really… one day❤️
Love to you both🌸❤️🌸
Hey Lorraine :) Thank you for your lovely message once again !!! If you will do them cucumbers put more salt extra 2 more spoons as it wasn't salty enough ... They where lovely but need's eating in 2-3 days as then they get to sour !!! (but nice as well) it's just different way to eat them as I mention :) Or I slice fresh cucumbers put some onions salt and pepper and mix with sour cream .. or yogurt .. this is nice as well.
Yes I am very happy about them onions ... really surprised they that big ...
Guffy .... he just goes crazy when he sees water and he was so soft and when after that swim .. but he got grey again when he spend day back at home LOL
Have a lovely week ahead and thank you for watching us we LOVE you as well Gxx
It's coming together! Your shade garden is beautiful!
Thank you Elizabeth you lovely as always !!!! Kudos Gxxx

Thank you for watching us and being the part of it !!! Gxxx
Love to watch her in the garden.Good luck on your renovation.
Thank you Maria :) Hugs Gxxx
Your pointing looks good. Guffy loves his water an the dirt. Andrius will beat the rock eventually.
Thank you Juanita !! pointing is on point I think ;) ( I am so funny sometimes ;) ) Guffy was white dog for few hours till he rolled in dirt back at farm LOL And yes to Andrius !!! yes it takes time but we nearly there !!! Gxxx
Love how happy Guffy is in the water. My Gracie was also a westie and she hated it so much.
Watching your channel is one of my favourites.
You're genuinely lovely people.
I just wanted to comment to boost really (so I'm waffling lol) because I think you should have a whole lot more subscribers.
Anyway much love to you both.
Lisa from Perth Western Australia ❤
Hello Lisa :)
Thank you for your message I am smiling now when I am replying to you !!!! I do love waffle as well LOL so it made me smile !!! Guffy is ex beaver I think ... he just loved water from young days ..Westies got very big characters so if Gracie didn't liked water when you wouldn't be able to make her go in it and that's what I love about westies ..they just so different :)
Thank you for watching us and for such a lovely compliment I love it ... it's always so nice to read this ..
Have a lovely week ahead Lisa and see you on wednesday for more waffling I hope ;) Big hugs G
Yes, I am perplexed as to why you do not have more subscribers. They really don’t know what they are missing!!

I can only have respect for your determination on getting that rock formation removed!! Keep going!
Thank you :) As Andrius said one more and it's done .. well I will say two more days as I am like that ;) Gxxx
Your welcome! Wanted to give you an extra motivation boost and express that what your doing is hard work! Please listen to your bodies and take enough rest to recover. Best wishes.
Thank you !!! Very kind of you !!! Gxx
What backbreaking work! You made some huge progress on that huge rock!
Thank you :) Gxxx
You two love birds are creating such an oasis, can’t wait to see the finished project. Keep up the good work. A big hug from extremely hot Sunny Florida. It’s been in the 90’s for at least a month. ❤
Hello :) that must be tiering .. I am sure you got AC xxx That terrace takes loads of man power to do it ;) but We will do it !!! Thank you very much for watching us Gxxx
Glad you take time to enjoy the beautiful country around your farm
Thank you :) We do .. just not all the time taking camera with us and filming ... as we want to take a break from t as well !!! but we do take time off ... we not wee crazy ;) as they say Gxxx
Great amount of work accomplished folks.
Thank you very much :) very nice of you to say that
Old Canadian here. My Mum called those refrigerator pickles.
Love that name !!!! It's so nice to have them from refrigerator !!! As we have just mini one I can't put stuff like that in it ... can't wait to have big fridge in my new kitchen ;) I am glad you recognised the recipe and your mum was making it the same !! Gxxx
Wonderful progress, long video is Awesome. Pito Geffy..😂🤣😁He loves the water and Lake . Glad to see garden doing so well... Blessings🙏🙏.It is 90F in Idaho today, 100F this week. Romans 10 :9-10
Hello !!! yes Guffy loves his swim ;) Glad you likes video :) The only bad thing with longer video it takes way much longer to upload like it happened yesterday :) we where to late to post it in afternoon ;) Hot at yours's as well !!! keep drinking water !! and loom after yourself Gxx
Hello from U.S.A. love your videos.
Hello Maria !!!! Thank you very much for your kind words !!! Thank you for watching us :) Gxxx
GOOD MORNING from Upstate New York USA to Portugal. I am counting down to arriving in January....Cheers
Not even half year left then ;) YEY!!!! Gxxx
Slowly but surely you are getting there with the huge rocks.
Nearly there ;) Nearly there .... She said .... but we do have time ...well at least one week then it's roof time !!!! Thank you for watching us and have a lovely week ahead :)G
Have a good day fishing and catch u both Wednesday..............🙂
Thank you Peter :) See you on wednesday Gxx
It’s certainly proving to be a slog to breakdown that huge stone! Goodness knows plenty would have given up by now! The vegetable garden is into full production by the looks of it. G, is there anything you can’t do? Mixing concrete one minute to giving us recipes to use up our cucumber harvest! You are indeed super woman! ❤
Thank you Rosemary .. I am scared of mice and rats so This is my weakest point !!! Now you know ;) Gxxx
Getting better and better with your videos. Injecting glimpses of the scenery and animals into the more tedious shots gives a lovely break. Well done.
Thank you Joanne !!! very kind of you to say that :) Gxxx Practice makes it perfect ... I bet after few years (if we still will film ) will be interesting to watch our first videos ... Gxxx
The garden is fabulous Gi!!!!!!
Hello Katia !!! I didn't seen you here for a while !! I used to see your comment LOL ... Hope all good with you :) Thank you for your kind words Gxxx
What a huge job breaking those rock's 🫤 good to see you taking some time for a swim 😊
Thank you :) we do take time off .. we might look crazy but not that crazy ;) It was first swim this year .. wasn't warm enough to go earlier ... but after few days of 40 we made up our mind to go very quickly ;) Gxxx Thank you for watching us
G, I am loving your recipe with the cucumber, and I look forward to when you are in your new kitchen and you can enjoy cooking even more. Your garden and flowers are a dream ,and all that Andrew is doing to make the homestead so lovely. Congratulations to you both.
Hello Kara :) Thank you very much for your kind words !!! I do love to cook so will be nice to have my own kitchen and space where I can do it ... Yes I did used to this "temporary" kitchen and I don't mind it BUT I will be very happy to have everything in one place and separate from everyone cha cha ... I can do my cooking channel videos from there !!!! YEY fun time to come I think ;) Maybe I push Andrius to much sometimes but I just like to work and want to move in faster ... no one can blame I am sure ;) Thank you for watching us !!! Gxxx
Your little dog is going to be deaf standing so close to the noise from dealing with that massive bolder.
Hello, hope not ... will make him go further next time :) G
Very good progress with the rocks. Andrius I know you appreciate your wife but I must sy G is a very BIG asset on the property. There's nothing that she can't do. Good harvest of veggies❤
Thank you Anna !!! Yes Andriau ... read it once read it twice ;) Love it .. I think I just like working and I enjoy .. but I would never touch that big saw he cuts rock with it's a bit to big for me and powerful ;) Same he said about washing dishes .. he scared !!! (just kidding ;) ) Have a good week ahead and thank you for watching us Anna !!! Gxxx
Yes G, you are an absolutely amazing woman!!! I am quite a bit older than you, but I don’t think I could have ever catch up with you. Andrius picked out a wonderful wife. I was married for 50 years- I miss him terribly. We moved all over but never tried anything like you two are doing, so wonderful to watch you guys each week. By the way, loved Guffy swim. So much talent in your family. Great cucumber as well 😊😊. See you next week, love you guys!!!!
I agree you are both great workers. I like working that way too, not just yet wait 3 months more….However able to carry a watering can again!
Wish we co7ld get some heat, not a good summer! Xxx
Thank you so much Marietta !!! I recently realised I love getting compliments what's' why I always try to do the best at everything I do...I think I just need recognition and when I get that I am SO SO HAPPY !!! (My mum never really said well done to me she thinks we suffering here and working to hard .. ) Gxxx
Hello Corinne !!! yey you getting stronger !!! them 3 months will pass very quick ;) And yes I did seen UK still on winter mode unfortunately :( and people do need sun and warmth to feel better !!! Gxx speak soon
Now I can see your vision😃 I see where you are going with the patio.
Yey !!! So good you can see it .. Sometimes it's hard or we forget to explain what we doing and why we doing .. as we changing our minds as well .. because it's more fun like that ;) Thank you very much for watching us Gxxx
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, good work 👍😁.
Thank you Arjan !!! And hank you for your tip to eat more salt I have been doing that !!! plenty water and some extra salt on food !!! Have a lovely week ahead Gxx
You are both doing an amazing job. Everything is progressing nicely. I always look forward to your videos. Until the next time. Take care of yourself ❤❤
Thank you Karen !!! we just been digging and crushing that patio area this morning and I was telling A that this terrace will be gold's worth after we done it !!! Definitely takes long time to level .. I hope it's not to boring for you to watch it how we doing it :) Have a good week and see you soon Gxxx
❤❤❤ greetings from Viet Nam❤❤❤❤
Just loving your channel, it’s one of my favourites…you are making such great progress with your land…it’s a joy to watch it all taking shape. 🥰🥰🥰🌻🌻🐝🐝
So nice of you to say this !!! Thank you for watching us !!! Gxxx
Good morning lovely couple ❤❤❤ happy new month 😊

@@portugalitis so kind of you to respond 😊my family and I are well it's just started raining 💃💃💃 trusting God for an amazing month for us all ❤️I liked the pickling recipe ❤️
Thank you Michelle !!!! Rain is good I am glad it's raining for you :) Put few more extra spoons of salt there as 3 wasn't enough .. I would put 5 at least ;) Hugs and have a lovely week ahead Gxxxx
Hello, lovely hard slogging couple! That refeshing dip in the lake or reservoir was well deserved after all the cement mixing & pouring and rock gathering & throwing!
I hope you don't mind that i pkayed this vid several times to be able to make a comment that made sense, since i borrowed your energy to sanitize our floors of any remnant mildew or spores from winter condensation.
In San Francisco we have False Winter, Actual Winter, Winter of False Spring, and our typical Artic Summer. I feel sorry for first time visitors to SF in June, July, and August in their shorts, tank and crop tops, and sad sad flip flops excited to see the sights. Then at some point they scurry back to the shelter of their hotel rooms to escape the howling dread winds and threst of frost bite.
If you're coming to San Francisco, don't wear flowers in your hair... wear long pants, some time of light but warm jacket, socks & shoes.
But i digress.
Yes, i replayed your video to pace myself: floor sanitation - done; reorganizing kitchen items - in progress; re-emptying of livingroom - in progress. Now i'm stopping for a make-do lunch at 3:40pm.
I have to admire a man and lady who can switch from rock-cement-boulder work to making pickles, micing up organic fertilizer for the garden, harvesting onions, and finding clever & pleasing new camera angles.
You guys are the model of health and safety in your PPE 👷🏻♀️👷🏻♂️🥽🥾🧤🙉, i LOVE it. You're smashing safety like boulders! Heh?? see what i did there? 😎
Very good, guys, very good. 💖
Ruth Ruth Ruth I just said you didn't commented and bang ... you came back with this !!! Love your PPE bit ... I am so glad you done few bits what you wanted (needed) to do !!! That's what Sunday is for :) Hope you will have a good week ahead Hugs G
Lovely onions. Enjoy😄
Thank you :)
One step closer :)
Hello !!!! Hope you well :) Thank you for watching us and for following on insta!! I do remember seeing you there ;) Have a lovely week ahead !!! Gxxx
@@portugalitis how cool is that 🤗 thanks! I love to see you in that "barragem". I used to go there when I was a child. My grandfather work there in the construction long time ago :)
Ahh so it's like walking memory lanes (or how they say it ... ) Andrius just went there today to fish !!! he caught Boga and perch .. we going back there tomorrow as well .. it's 30 min from us so not that far !!! it's beautiful place .. remind us Lithuania .. as nature is very similar .. pine forest I mean ... and I was picking mushrooms last autumn there and will do again this year !!!
@@portugalitis I love how happy you look :) in the summer that place is the spot of the bigger (I think) eletronic music in europe (boom festival idanha a nova) :) in my fathers/grandfather village (ladoeiro) next weeks is the watermellon festival 😁
Ahh you talking about that barragem !!! we went to Meimoa this time !!! Never been to that festival but one day would love to go there !!!
wow what an awesome garden!
Thank you very much :)
Great job G. filling in spaces among the stone wall
Thank you :) I knew I will be useful for something ;) Gxxx
So glad to see you relaxing in the lake in the heat, then continuing your hard work. Well done. The garden is a treasure.❤️🙏
Thank you Elisabeth very nice of you to say that :) few more week's and I wills tart picking my tomatoes !!!! can't wait to process all of them Gxxx
Your veranda is coming along nicely 😊
Thank you very much :) G
❤❤❤❤❤❤
:) :) :)xxxx
Deidre, did anyone ever tell you that you have great legs? I bet people have told you your whole life. You look amazing! Good job guys. Loving the progress. And, OMG, the most perfect swim after a hard day. Also, with the onions, once you have got them dried, you should be able to keep them in a cool, dry place. If not, pickle them.
Wow, thank you Debbie ... No one told me that recently .. it was years ago then someone commented about my legs :) :) So nice to get compliments ;) HUGS xxxxx G you just made my day THANK YOU
GOOD MORNING LOVELY PEOPLE!!! 😂 😂 That was good!
Great ideas running the water to keep the dust down and with cutting more, closer or tighter channels in the rock. It makes the jack hammering go quicker.
Curious as to what fish you catch? I might just have to come join you when we move over there.
Power on you two!
Good morning Bryan !!!! Well you just reading Andriaus minds !!! because when we tried cutting with water he said it was cutting so much better and deeper !!! he said why no one told him that before LOL So in a future if we will cut anything again that's what we will do :)
He went fishing for carps today .. but is other fish there .. I am sure he can tell you more about it when you will see him .. I don't really get fishing ... I just happy to eat it ... You moving this autumn yes?
Gxxx
@@portugalitis A long time ago when I had a full head of beautiful long hair, I worked in road/highway construction in different positions. For two of those years I worked as a ‘form setter’ rebuilding culverts and bridges. I spent a lot of time with large pneumatic jack hammers and quickly learned a lot of ways to make my job ‘easier’.
Yes, we will be coming over this autumn. I’ll communicate with you via messenger or WhatsApp when we get closer to that time rather than here on YT.
Oh yes let's stick to Messenger ;) you don't know how many weirdo's are on here ... JUSK kidding ;) Gxxx
Hello, just to remind you, Monday is wash day not fishing day., I don't mean to be cruel, but it's a fact; the work is advancing very well , Bravo🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hello !!! He went fishing today :) Sunday ;) Monday back to rock ups .. work ;) For andrius fishing would be every day LOL he is mad about it ;) have a lovely week ahead and thank you for watching us Gxxx
@@portugalitis A pleasure, I love your channel. you're both so amusing.
You are to kind !!!! we will continue doing that then ;)
French onion soup with all your fresh onions, yummy with some garlic cheese bread dunked into the soup 🤤! Hard work drilling that huge rock but you have the power💪 and tools until next time take care of each other 💞 xxx
I want that soup now ... I will have to do it when I will have my kitchen .. I even got lovely recipe for that (I saved it few months ago when I seen on internet) Please can you remind me to make soup ... as I might forget :) Gxxx
Hi, good morning looking good injoy it fallow back injoy your Sunday and good new week.
Thank you very much !!! Andrius is fishing and I am having nice relaxing day at farm !!! Gxxx have a good week as well
Be careful with this big saw 😮 love your video’s ❤
He was holding it very tight .. And yes I always scared of chainsaws or this one .. Gxxx
Olá Endro e Gi😊 façam uma passagem interior entre as duas divisões da casa, para um melhor conforto 👍😘
Hello !!! we had that vision before but we changed it now ... I want separate kitchen and it will make more wall space in bought rooms :) Gxxx
Hi,one kg of dynamite would help you a loth with rocks 😮😂
Cha cha ... and then half of the house as well ;) Gxxx
@portugalitis hi guys,didn't mean to blow half of your hause,as l know you have a dynamite that splits the rock, not damaging the hause of course,..but anyway it's fun to watch your sweating 😁 you are strong as rock 😁😁best regards
I know you didn't ..it's my jokes ;) And I am very clumsy so this might happen as well ;) Gxxx
Take care. Tough work ahead.☺
Thank you !!! we can do it ;) Gxx
Although I haven’t commented before I watch your videos all the time! I love the sense of humour you both have! Would it be worth buying a full size jack hammer to cut down the work time as I’m sure you will use it many more times or you could rent it out! Keep up the great work guys you are doing great! From Lorna in Devon Uk xx
Hello Lorna !!! Very nice to know you watched us from beginning you deserved a medal sticking with us crazy people ;) If I would be honest we don't have budged to buy new equipment and I doubt it they sell them in here .. I didn't seen in shops .. they don't rent stuff here as well it's not so easy to rent as in UK ..(where we done that before) it's a bit different here :) But saying that we nearly done crushing that rock ... So many people said we should use dynamite or expanding stuff as well but We wouldn't even know where to get that from ... and we will stick what we know maybe safer that way .. Thank you for watching and hello to SUNNY I hope Devon ;) Gxxx
Vevor sells them on internet 😇💗💗💗
I bet it's expensive xxx
WOW 😲 looks like onions for days
AHA !!! but I just had suggestions to slice them and dry them and then make them in to powder and use for cooking !!! what a great idea!! I will do that next week with some of them ;)
Looks like rock elimination is going very well
Looks like it !!!! One or two more days and this is is .. bye bye rock ;) we will be rocking !!! G ;) I am so funny ...
You guys are very hard working people, well done. What do you mean that onions are not suitable? You know that you need to hang them in a shade and let them dry, with the leaves on , before you start consuming them ? There is plenty of TH-cam videos showing how to do it . Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing your videos.
Hello :) I meant them onions won' t last for months ... as they are for quick consumption .. people here plant them in winter and eating them during the summer ... I also planted onions this spring which I will be able to store as they are different type ... Hope you understand what I meant :) Sometimes (almost all the times) I can't explain my self clearly .... G xx Thank you for watching us
@@portugalitis Yes I understand now . I'm Portuguese but living in the UK , so I know . I plant some onions here , but I never very lucky, only with potatoes and Beans, also tomato and peppers. Take care guys.
I wasn't lucky with onions in UK either ... maybe try to plant them under black plastic sheets? so it will will warm and no weeds? As I think that's what I will do for winter onions next time I plant them ... I am not lucky with beans or peppers .. so you see we all got Mais or minus ;) Gxx we can't be perfect everywhere !!!
@@portugalitis You're doing great. Good luck with your vegetables . Take care guys .
Thank you :)
That big rock, why dont you use smaller rocks to build the sides up and make a raised herb bed, would be lovely right out side the house, just an idea 👍💫
Thank you Wendy !! :) yes definitely will use that big rock for something ... not suer about the herbs as it is sunny all day there and sun in here is so hot .. but during winter or spring or autumn why not ;) Gxxx
Can't wait to see the results of your work
Thank you :) It will nice o share them with you :) Gxx
Hi all
I really like your channel. I'm watching from the UK. But hopefully I will be in portugal before the end of the year,
How exciting !!! Hope our videos will help you with something .. :) Thank you for watching us !!! Gxxx
Congratulations on the progress you are making on your patio. Will you be putting some drainage in? What a great gardener you are. The cucumbers and onions look so healthy.
Thank you Judy very kind of you to say that ... :) We will do drainage for sure ... and we want to build small wall surrounding patio so water won't get in when it's raining .. but that's when we done with roof .. as it is more important :) Gxxx
Can you dehydrate the onions and turn them into onion powder?
Hooray, fishing 😂
Hey Mike !!! it's a good idea THANK YOU .. I will dry some .. I did the same with my garlic so I could use it for sundried tomatoes !! Gxx
@@portugalitis and season the meat for BBQ. ARGHH! YOU MADE ME HUNGRY 🤣
Ahh me tooo !!!! Talking about food I always wanted to do slow roast pork ribs with BBQ sauce ... but never done it whilst we here in PT ..I Think I will have to man up soon and do it for my cooking channel !!! :) Well Andrius came back from fishing and he caught some fish so we will be eating fish this evening !!! some perch and Boga - portuguesa !! happy times !!!
G, you can slice and dry those onions in the sun, then powder them up for onion powder. Just one way to store them. :)
Also, I cannot place your accents. Can I ask where you both are originally from? Love your channel. ❣
Hello !!! One lovely subscriber said that as well and I did thank for the idea and I will do the same to you !!!! I didn't though about it but now I will do !!!
We originally from LITHUANIA (eastern Europe) and we lived in UK for 19 years I think but now very happy here in Portugal
Thank you for your kind words and for watching us !!! Gxx...
Hello and al respect to you A and G. Hardworking its going too be perfect. Guffy loves to be in the water!🐶🤣 he is a water dog! A what kind of of fish can you catch in the lake? Good luck withe the rock . G how is the garden? Dont forget to water the garden Bet regards from Sweden. Its raining in Sweden 🇸🇪🇵🇹👍
Hey ... We do need to water I am afraid ..takes time but Tomatoes and the rest of my garden loves the sun and warm nights it's thriving :) Andrius going to try to catch some carp today but they are very clever in here ... don't like to be caught ... Guffy is happy dog when he in water .. and with life west because he can float like that for hours :) G
@@portugalitis 👍❤🇸🇪😀🇵🇹
Explosives course.😊😅
Would be a big bang ;)
Hay un producto que es como un cemento que rompe la roca en las cajas pone como usarlo ,espero que lo encuentre en Portugal.
Hello, Thank you :) But this time we nearly done with it !!! Andrius loves to work hard ... let him ;) But in all seriousness thank you for your advice :) G
Yes there’s also these things called feather n wedge or something. I saw Kirstie from Portugal From Scratch use them. You drill a hole in the rock and insert these wedges. I can’t remember if you twist them or if you hammer them but the series of holes make a fracture in the rock.
:) Yes we got that and used it for other rocks we had ... This one is easier to break this way unfortunately and when you have power tools you better use it ;) If we will decide to crack that big rock we will use expanding concrete which so many people said to use !!! :) Thank you for watching us :) And I do watch Kirstie's channel she done such a nice wall in her house by the log burner I loved it !!! oh and her dad is true Scotsman so funny !!! G
Andrius, you are doing a great job braking up the rock. It will make a big difference to the patio area. Gierdre, nice job on the video. Love the Guinea hens hiding, and wanting not to be in the picture! Your pointing is very good, the wall is starting to looked very nice. I am envious of your cucumbers, mine are very, very tiny. I am also using organic fertilizer that I make from comfrey but I have just started using it and I am seeing some improvement.
Thank you for your kind words !!! Cucumbers are very needy plants I think .. they like water and moisture ... Try to put east water and a bit of charcoal like I done at the beginning .. I done second time few weeks ago as I don't think they good as they could be .. next year will plant less of them ... As they definitely need food when they grow. I do like pointing and maybe because I can see difference straight away not like never ending crushing rock LOL we done more digging and more crushing this morning .. and tomorrow we will work on making wall in that corner .. today I was already thinking do we really need this patio??? It will be worth gold as it's a hard job ;)
I adore Guinea hens they so cute !!! yesterday I let them out for first time ohh my .. they run like whiled I could not keep up with them because I didn't want to leave my eys site !!! this morning when I let them all for morning run they where better ... but still they are SUPER fast :)
@@portugalitis True they are fast, and keeping up with them will be a challenge, perhaps a leash is in order! And yes I remember you used yeast and i will be doing that this week as well. Apparently it is good for more than just cucumbers so I will try it on my beans. The patio is going to be a great place to have, it will have a roof over it and it will allow you some shelter from the sun when you want to just enjoy being outside and relaxing! But first you need to “get cracking” on that rock, LOL!
This evening they been so much better !!! stayed with chickens almost all the time ;)
will get cracking tomorrow morning again .. this evening I cracked opened a bottle of chilled white wine .. to have one glass LOL because why not ;)
What a lovely lake, it seems very private. Don’t any other people go there?
Just fisherman !!!There is like beach area there with café and ect so people go there but we like to be away from it ... we like peace and quite ;) (it's further down the dirt track so not many people willing to go there .. but we got truck so we good ;) )
If you measure from the inside of your stone wall, you won't have to cut so much stone away.
Thank you for your advice !!! :) G I am sure A will find that useful :) Gxxx
Good progress on removing that stone, hopefully in Wednesday's video you wii be finished with it. Beatrice has done a great job growing cucumbers and onions, has your greenhouse/garden produced other vegetables?
Hello :) My names is Giedre ;) not Beatrice ;) but it's a lovely names as well !!! Yes hopefully wednesday we can leave that rock behind us and we can do more concreting and then the roof part !!!! Gxxx

Thank you very much for commenting every single week !! :) Gxxx
When you build the roof will you pour a ring beam? I was just thinking you could go up two feet and give you a higher mesane.
Hi Caroll yes we will do ring beam and so far we don't have plans to go higher it will take more time and more man power and we don't really need that hight oh and I just realised new kitchen hight is the same as barn so no more hights :) G it's good as it is !!!!
Boa noite meu caro senhor Andrew e Gi outro vidio muito interessante o pátio ja a tomar forma nunca pensei que houvesse pedras nao fazia ideia nao conheço o centro de Portugal agora comprendo porque há milhares casas de pedras as pessoas utilizavam a pedra para fazer as suas casas. A Gi e o senhor Andrew continuam a trabalhar duro só tenho medo que tenham mais tarde dores nas costas é preciso tambem descansar. Foi uma optima ideia irem com o seu cãozinho nadar depois de tanto calor sabe muito bem nadar. Apesar de tanto trabalho estao sempre de bom humor admiro muito os meus amigos têm muita persistência e se Deus quiser vao ter uma uma casa eu sei que ainda demora o senhor Andrew precisava de algumas pessoas ajudar eu vejo alguns vidios de ingleses e holandeses que as vezes têm voluntários eu sei que ja aí estiveram uns rapazes muito simpáticos ajudar mas devia haver mais. Resta-me desejar uma boa semana para os meus queridos amigos que eu vou continuar a ver pois gosto muito do senhor Andrew e da Gi sao um casal tao adoravel
God bless you 🙏🙏
Thank you very much 👍👍💙💖
Thank you for another wonderful comment !!! you spoiling us as usual :) we work during the morning for 3-4 hours and then take rest so we ok :) And yes that patio is taking shape .. so good we dug that last year as well as if we would of started doing it now it would take us month to do it as we had so many big rocks there !!! Guffy loves his swim .. so do we ;) It's a nice relaxing place not far from us and water is crystal clear so we are very lucky !!!
I hope you well and you will have wonderful new week :) See you on wednesday for more digging and drilling ... ;) But I think we nearly there with it :)

why dont you get local dynamite guy,for controled explosion,remove it all,not expensive❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💘
Hey, how much do you think that would cost? I bet it's not cheap and you have to pay for it .. or is it free? :) well we sort of done it already .... Andrius did it :) I was filming che che :) Thank you for watching us and have a lovely week ahead !!! Gxxx
@@portugalitis I am not sure,but in Australia 30 dollars a go,plus materials
Not that expensive then !!! :) makes it faster as well ;) I found expanding cement which they sell here 15 euros per 5kg so if we will decide to crack that big rock we might try it that way :) G
trop de travail simplement des troues et du ciment expansif apre ces plus simple
Thank you !!! and where do we get this stuff here in Portugal ?
Olympics
I call him a beaver ;)
Can you not go on a explosives it would be easier. 😅😅
Would be to easy Alan ;) To easy ... to loose half of the house or few extra rocks Cha cha ... ;) G
just comment nothing
I won't comment back anything as well then ;) Hope you well Cornelis !!! Gxxx
still looks like you are using to much concrete. Dry fill as much as possible then if you must use 1 sack concrete to fill it is soft enough to dig if needed and strong enough to bind the rocks together, top with 3 sack concrete to finish or mix mortar and set a stone patio. I just hate to see you wasting so much money on concrete when it is not necessary. great project. 1 sack concrete give it a test
Hello Stan !! Thank you for caring, much appreciated .. you see thing is A always does job 150% more that we need to do .. he just want to be proper .. like crazy proper .. and it's very hard to change his mind unfortunately ... ;) Gxxx
et beaucoup moins de travail
definitely :)
