Love you guys, you are doing a great job and you'll be swimming in the pool very soon. Lol, I love that phrase Let's Crack On the Petherick use. I mentioned to Michael Petherick he should use the catch phase Let's Carry On. You two should use the catch phrase Let's Chateau Onwards 🥰
Hola! Thanks. We found out Bo is equivalent to 105 years old which is what a sign at the vet’s said was her equivalent human age for her 11 years. So we’ll let her have a hall pass 😁
lol we’re probably already stretching the definition of natural pool to its limits a diving board would probably be too much but I would love one. When I was a kid I loved diving
I'm a good deal older than the two of you but one common denominator we have is we start too many new projects at once. As a result, they take longer and cause stress in the meantime. I've finally learned my lesson this summer and won't do it again. I wish you success with this pool. DA
This maybe a dumb question, so forgive me, is it possible to lay all your bricks to the required height and then hire a cement truck to fill inside the bricks? If yes, the cost might be high. Looks like a super hard slog for you! You have great perseverance!
@@evapatterson-vf1cs I don’t think this is an option because a large truck won’t fit in the gates of the chateau. I think it’s too far of a distance to use a tube to pump the concrete from the street. It’s a slow process, that’s for sure!
Yes that’s right. In hindsight it might have made sense to knock down the front gates to get a truck in but I think we’d have had to chop down a very large tree next to the gates too. So we’ve been plugging away by hand 😩
We know this is a project you have not particularly enjoyed ( understatement 😜) Difficult to get motivated to do something you dislike doing. The pool is looking good , keep up the good work. If you noticed mosquitoes in the standing water , will the pool not attract them when it’s finished? Think the Pethericks can supply a T shirt that says Crack On 😂. X
When the pool is full it won’t be static so hopefully that will reduce mosquitoes. We might also have more natural predators that will eat them and keep them under control.
You two are just lovely & charming! So glad you’re able to make progress on your pool! ❤
Thank you so much!
Hey guys well done. Sooo much work, I’m exhausted watching 😂😂
Thanks ☺️
Great progress, guys. ❤

😂. It’s perhaps one that’s used much more frequently than in other English speaking countries. Not really sure where it originated from.
The pool is looking good. ❤
Pleased u getting the Pool done looks really great . Are u keeping the bottom Clay ? .
Thanks, No we’ve got a liner to go in but also some insulation boards to hopefully help retain some heat.
Well done boys 😊❤😊❤
Well, progress is visible. I can understand the "despair " part, but progress shooos that away. Thank you. ❤🎉❤🎉😊
Yes we just have to set little milestones to aim towards as the end result is still quite a long way off!
Great to see the progress with that “hell hole”. Admire your dedication. Chris doing public transport made me smile…. Brave man 😂
It’s fair to say he’s not a fan of the Ferry 😂
Hola from Ecuador! The pool project is shaping up nicely. I would help, but I’m really more of Bo’s “lazy” personality!

@@chateautroisclochesour St. Bernard lived to age 14, so long live Bo!

Hate spiders so much i run.you two are brave doing the pool so much work. Hope you get sunshine soon make work outside better.
Yes finally we’ve had some good weather which is a relief!
Well done you two. Can’t see the scaffold for the diving board…………………. 😊

In this instance it’s actually been quite good to have other projects to give us a break from this project 😅

The music choice is messing with my brain. Years of performing the nutcracker has my mind in winter mood, but watching you build a pool!

If they can’t supply the T-shirt finca life in Spain can
Please no hats with Crack On. It has been done by the Pethericks.
Have they! Very clever, maybe we need vogue on tiaras instead
