Cemex deliver to Ashville who then hood it in the hopper then deliver to other clients… why don’t cemex just deliver straight to clients missing out Ashville?
i know it might be a bit boring but can we have a sky view tour of the new yard with like overlays of what will be and what you have right now would be intrsting to see it all as we have a macro view on the ground but a nice over view would be cool just to visually see it all
I have noticed how early the lorry drivers come into work and have just heard Daniel say 5am. They're expected to have their trucks loaded and fuelled up the night before so they are ready to go, BUT where can they go at that unearthly hour?? They can't start making a noise at that time of day so can someone tell me? Do they all pile in a nearby cafe for a bacon butty and cuppa tea?
Daniel , cover the tanks with a dark paint and prevent sunlight causing the algi growth ot fit a UV light keeping sterile , it works for fish pond filter boxes .
Dark colours attract the heat from the sun which will promote algi growth, if you have ever noticed when we have hot weather dark cars the bodywork gets to hot to touch and white and silver cars aren't.
@thisisashville guys it may be worthwhile purchasing water purification tablets...they kill algae and bacteria for camping etc and once a week drop one in...they should be concrete safe...cheaper than pumps filters and lost work time Also interesting you download once a month for the tacho heads...how often do you download the driver card... would be interested in chatting though this with yourselves..
Once settled in the new yard. A bigger cement storage is recommended for efficiency long term. Save money on cement logistics cost and better operating capacity
everything I hope he change upgrade. better water fuel etc take a tanker and some every time. I'm amazed he didn't think of a crusher hire or buy one as a recycle. hire a crusher rip out old stuff from yard and new yard must be cheaper than buy in. as when he do this there r alot of staff doing nothing. let alone gains new train where the plan for pipes waste etc. soon get loads no hard floors no dains no power ideas. no ur plan but we moved it 100 times. oooo what we need is in storge. hi end cowboys. I say that because quick move fix. to well temp temp temp crap
Congrats on the first train guys. Looking forward to next week already... 1. To see if the concrete mixer works on Monday 2. To see the Type-1 delivery!
Wow an hour and a quarter,glad the wife had to grand DIY plans for me this morning! Dan take care of yourself, you always fight the good fight and go above and beyond for your staff and company but 16 hours days repetitively will burn Yiu out, your gonna need a break soon. Plus side we'll get Asheville weekly with Tezza!
Best Sunday arvo/night routine in Australia.. .. .. .. never keen to go back to work on a Monday but the Ashville video is like a pep talk at half time we all need to get through the week. ! SERIOUS !
You’re one very important member of staff short. Most business are. Those who have a fixer have a lot less problems. The difficulty is finding the right person for the job and not being shy to providing the correct tools for the fixer. Ohh, the pay must be attractive.
I think it's time you delegated more to a yard manager or a key managing director. By now you should be working on the top and bottom 5% not everything around you.
Can’t afford it. He’s focused on growth not capital stockpile. One big bill would fuck him. They’re cash flow positive but there’s fuck all in the bank - shit situation to be in.
@ryanclarke9477 yet csn afford creative people to make TH-cam videos, sorry doesn't add up. There's always money to employ the right people in the right roles
Algae in tank is because your tanks are white, and allow sunlight through to allow algea to form. Put a cover over the tank to stop the sunlight getting to the water, and your problem will be solved, or at least made better
Your on the homeward stretch now Daniel keep on keeping on I can't wait to see a stand-alone video of the first train being unloaded this is where you can close some of your money back now that you have invested
Daniel you're a micro manager , most expensive yard supervisor in history If Terry leaves your in Sh*t because your in the yard and not in the office Basically off load some of your work to a trusted person for the yard work, give then a daily task sheet employ a mechanical guy who can look after the vehicles and plant you have on site and on lease, could be the same guy Do you visit long term lease machines make sure they are in good shape , no surprises when they return from lease. Your health is more important, the grave yard is full of micro managers that thought they were indispensable you think your running a sprint , no your actually running a marathon Best of luck
Been in business for years, built multiple companies within said business, gets a new property that he's working on making the way he wants, films a small part of his days during the week to show on youtube, im pretty sure he's doing fine. Just cause what people see him film, he wouldn't be where he is if he wasn't doing things correct.
@@builtbymeI get your sentiment, but if you think he won't always be thinking of how to improve his life and his businesses that isn't how he's got where he has. Not saying that OP is right on this, but it would certainly free up some of his time for more forward thinking. Likewise thinking that Terry will never leave... One should always have a succession plan in place and I would imagine Daniel will have a plan already in place for that day.
@alexpeartree2019 he's well ahead of the game. People need to stop thinking what's shown on youtube is what's actually going on. These videos are already 2 weeks behind. You literally see maybe 10 to 30 mins out of each day for 6 days. That's 3 hours out of at least 60 hours a week based on a 12 hour day. With at least 5 companies under one umbrella that were all built from the ground up many years ago, im gonna say confidently that he isn't micro managing anything, he has delegated what needs to be, and is always steps ahead. It's youtube, take it for what it is. You definitely won't ever see every hour of the day in a video.
The true life of an real entrepreneur. Great you show the struggle. The sacrifices are endless. once this push is over take a holiday. then keep at it. You defibetly need a maintenace/facility manager responseble for maintaining the fear. best luck.
Why is this not on mainstream tv ,sending all the best from Barbados Daniel it’s just magic watching your episodes thank you to all otyou team and staff 🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⛳️⛳️⛳️
I was just looking at where the visitors come into the yard at the turnstile and thinking the gap from the turnstile to the train what will be there. A bit of concrete could go there so the visitors that come in that way doesn't get mud and dirty on there shoes and it doesn't go all into your nice train when it's in place. Keep up the good work tho Daniel. Amazing guy to watch on my Sunday morning.
That pedestrian walkway looks properly bland and a good space. Thought about chucking down some topsoil/raised beds on the side and some wildflower seed or something to greet people on their way in? I'm sure you've got some salvaged material somewhere.
Being an entrepreneur, I've learned so much from this dude. Real talk, man. I appreciate how he goes about doing business, with decency and excellence. Top Notch Cat right here 1000% 🎉🎉🎉 I'll give you your roses now, my guy. Cheers! Maximum Respect brother
Once the new yard is completed and you have stopped pumping time, money, resources and effort into it your life will be a breeze, you're a man on a mission and a big part of that is just about done and done really well, hats off to you big fella, there's not many people out there that could manage to do what you're doing, enjoy your videos, thanks for letting us tag along.
I just love ❤ that now they are longer than 1 hour . This is how I start my Sunday having breakfast and watching Daniel! Keep it going we are behind you 💯!!!
Love the part at around 9:00 when Tezza gives Daniel a little shove, as if to say well done. The hard work will be worth the effort!!!! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Hi Dan, I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Ive watched Your content for a fair few years now and has been a huge inspiration and played a massive part in pushing me out of my comfort zone. Because of the motivation I got from your content, I finally took the leap, got HGV licence, and have since moved on to full-time employment as a Class 1 driver. The journey hasn't been easy, I've had to fully fund it myself with the rise in cost of living but seeing your experiences and advice really gave me the confidence to go after something I’ve always wanted. You've not only inspired me to make a change that needed to happen but also to embrace the challenges that come with pursuing a new path in life. Thank you for all that you do-keep up the great work, as it’s making a real difference to people like me. Ps when you expanding to scotland give me a shout.. Best regards, Graham
Daniel , you are doing absolutely fantastic, your getting through work that othe people would run away and bury their heads from, I may have said this before but, I am very proud of you, keep fighting the good fight ❤
Daniel, I look forward to your weekly episodes every Sunday morning, I greatly appreciate your content and you sharing the journey of your dreams, success and challenges of your dream. keep up the good fight! Steve
Daniel is increadably hard working and inspiring. He leads by example and is always clear and thourough with his staff. A true leader. It's amazing to see what Daniel has built and continues to push forward building his businesses despite constant challanges and set backs. This is what sets people like Daniel apart, his ability to keep pushing through challenges and digging deep to keep going. I hope Daniel builds his dream and wish him every success. Daniel opening up about the challenges he faces was extremely inciteful. One of the best episodes I have watched. Keep going Daniel, never give up and remember they reckon it takes an average of 20 years to become an ovenight success!! 🙃😂
Wow the locomotive 🚂 arriving for the first time on the new track and yard is very special. Such a lovely feeling. I love being local to Ashville, always puts a :) on my face when I see the fleet. Plenty of Trains carrying material to come in the future 💪🏼 (when I see Terry driving he reminds me of Penfold - I think that’s the name of the little dude in Danger Mouse, top lad is Terry :)).
You and your team are all doing a fantastic job Dan in such challenging time. When things settle down in the new yard? Your look back and think just how you made it through. But you will. God bless.
Great video Daniel, suggestion for the pedestrian walkway how about some raised flower beds surrounded by decorative slate from your stock, you could do the same next to the rail carriage when placed.
Daniel with all the work your team has been putting in with you there is doubts that you should do something very special for them this Christmas at least a company dinner
Who needs top gear when you got a top geezer!! Also I keep hearing Asheville on the news over in the USA. Keeps reminding me of this and how it could be possible to help the lots of people who have been made homeless or lost lives in NC. Looking forward to next weeks episode
I can see that waterlogged 6f5 area becoming an absolute nightmare, with heavy trucks turning over winter. and you having the whole lot out and concreting it before long Moist, compacted 6f5 has only ever caused me issues in the past and my eye was twitching watching all that work go into it man
On the way to work on this Sunday morning, building my construction business with the same 7 days a week grind. 99% of my circle thinks i'm mad! You're a great inspiration Daniel! Thank you!
Daniel, as a young Auzzie business owner, I really appreciate you sharing the reality of how tough the grind can be. I often feel the pressure working 15-hour days, but watching you reminds me that there’s always more fuel in the tank. Dragons fly higher in headwinds-soon enough, you’ll be looking down on O’Donovan from above.
Good on you Daniel. I respect what you are striving for. Truth be told I had a little emptoianl moment for you when the loco came and went. All good things. Thank you for sharing and for your channel. Its appreciated my end, if this helps? Sending love sir!
Yes we are aware and the team is working on it and unfortunately it's not Daniels fault. It needs to get fixed and we will sort it. Thanks for your patience and apolagies 🙏
Daniel, I recentley installed a 1000ltr water tank for water storage in my garden. I was told by the supplier to buy a black tank, because black tanks don't allow algae to form, and clear tanks do. So may have black tanks on the concrete trucks, and in the mean time paint them black.
Daniel, I appreciate your sharing your thoughts and insights to running a successful business. It amazes me how you're able to keep up with all the aspects of your business. It's really inspiring. I'm sure as part of your personal health you find time to meditate daily. It will keep you centered. I was wondering if you have a documented maintenance of troubles and preventive service log of all the machines. Having experience running high level computer banking systems back when Preventive Maintenance (PM) was required, it was easy to postpone of drop entirely. When that happens all hell brakes loose. Suggest you have a dedicated schedule and I guarantee that your machines will run longer. The pool chemical solution was brilliant. Say, looks like you can use a Welder Fabber ramp for your Lorry's LOL. Keep the videos coming! Cheers.
38:52 daniel check out key traka there a electronic key cabinet and basically you set up users and what keys they are allowed and every key movement is tracked and can export log to USB in case one does go missing pricey but worth it we use them in the set up of engineer workshops and is a game changer
What does Terry do exactly? Is he not responsible for operations? Therefore, responsible for vehicle maintenance? He should be ensuring that prestarts are being completed and machines are being greased/ maintained. If not, you need a leading hand/ supervisor for the yard.
Terry is always there, a few weeks ago Daniel said he will be more involved with the yard operations and Terry looking after other things so they can get the yard running to where they need it since it’s a new yard, there’s lots of work to do. Terry wouldn’t manager of operations if he’s not capable I mean we have had Daniel praise his work time and time again.
Despite being unrelated content this channel is and has always been on of the biggest inspirations for starting my own one! Hoping that staying transparent and authentic will help us grow but never expecting numbers like these, you’re smashing it mate.
your talk on 47:00, i feel you, those situations because of others, can break you... being in the deep and getting out takes mountain of energy,push and is not a happy one.. worse is the endclient take it lightly and don't understand the pressure that creat on people the on the owners of the businesses! we will get out of there! Thanks for sharing, honesty brings ppl furthest
It was good to see the trains return in stead, now this should help you make that bread! I enjoy watching progress in the yard, just hope the dent is not too great on the Mastercard!
Another great video the yard is really coming together. You and your team have done so much already to the new yard. Keep up the good work. This is my new channel as I’ve had a new phone and unfortunately lost my old TH-cam channel won’t let me bk on it so had to set another one up.
Im plumbing and plastering my kids bedroom moaning about my todo list ... Then I watch Daniel and have to STFU. Crack on big man, you're an inspiration!
It used to be about Sunday evenings at 8 to catch Top Gear. All about Sunday mornings now
Fully back this!!!!
Don't make me cry Chris! Still trying to get over not having those three on TV together 🤣
Sunday night 8 pm for me. love it
Ditto
Cemex deliver to Ashville who then hood it in the hopper then deliver to other clients… why don’t cemex just deliver straight to clients missing out Ashville?

I’d love that too
Excellent idea
It's already been done in a previous episode, can't remember which.
Yes pls., i still feel quite confused what is where 👍🏻
I have noticed how early the lorry drivers come into work and have just heard Daniel say 5am. They're expected to have their trucks loaded and fuelled up the night before so they are ready to go, BUT where can they go at that unearthly hour??

Daniel , cover the tanks with a dark paint and prevent sunlight causing the algi growth ot fit a UV light keeping sterile , it works for fish pond filter boxes .
We will notify Daniel and the team. Thanks for the suggestion. 🙏
Dark colours attract the heat from the sun which will promote algi growth, if you have ever noticed when we have hot weather dark cars the bodywork gets to hot to touch and white and silver cars aren't.
@thisisashville guys it may be worthwhile purchasing water purification tablets...they kill algae and bacteria for camping etc and once a week drop one in...they should be concrete safe...cheaper than pumps filters and lost work time
Also interesting you download once a month for the tacho heads...how often do you download the driver card... would be interested in chatting though this with yourselves..
@thisisashville look into Biocide as a water additive. We use it in beer coolers in pubs. Added periodically it helps massively.
Once settled in the new yard. A bigger cement storage is recommended for efficiency long term. Save money on cement logistics cost and better operating capacity
everything I hope he change upgrade. better water fuel etc take a tanker and some every time. I'm amazed he didn't think of a crusher hire or buy one as a recycle. hire a crusher rip out old stuff from yard and new yard must be cheaper than buy in. as when he do this there r alot of staff doing nothing. let alone gains new train where the plan for pipes waste etc. soon get loads no hard floors no dains no power ideas. no ur plan but we moved it 100 times. oooo what we need is in storge. hi end cowboys.

If you didn’t get emotional today he that’s train rolled in your on the wrong page 🙈
I’m with you on that 😅
Any idea when Daniels own personal train is being delivered??
Wow an hour and a quarter,glad the wife had to grand DIY plans for me this morning!
Dan take care of yourself, you always fight the good fight and go above and beyond for your staff and company but 16 hours days repetitively will burn Yiu out, your gonna need a break soon.
Plus side we'll get Asheville weekly with Tezza!
It’s Sunday morning……. I’m in the lounge…… already nearly 5000 views in 20 minutes. Keep up the good work Daniel
I read this in Daniel’s voice
Best Sunday arvo/night routine in Australia.. .. .. .. never keen to go back to work on a Monday but the Ashville video is like a pep talk at half time we all need to get through the week.
! SERIOUS !
👊
Good morning, Ashville family, zambia is in the building 👷♂️ 💪🏼. 🇿🇲
IMHO, you would really benefit from delegating some of your responsibilities.
I don’t think that’s in his character
He has but not been. Everyone is up to the task
let's goo best sunday morning routine
Afternoon for me but I love it let’s gooooo
💯 mate
Strong coffee, fruit, pancakes, skyr protein yogurt, Ashville, RITUAL!
Ashville is Sunday night after dinner viewing here in Australia, perfect 👍🏼
Can't believe it's been 5 years since the LH60 arrived in the yard, where does the time go 👀👍👍
it would benefit your fleet to be doing consistent oil and coolant samples on a regular basis to catch issues before they arise
You’re one very important member of staff short. Most business are. Those who have a fixer have a lot less problems. The difficulty is finding the right person for the job and not being shy to providing the correct tools for the fixer. Ohh, the pay must be attractive.
New yard is going to be so sick when it’s all up and running 👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I think it's time you delegated more to a yard manager or a key managing director. By now you should be working on the top and bottom 5% not everything around you.
Can’t afford it. He’s focused on growth not capital stockpile. One big bill would fuck him. They’re cash flow positive but there’s fuck all in the bank - shit situation to be in.
@ryanclarke9477 yet csn afford creative people to make TH-cam videos, sorry doesn't add up. There's always money to employ the right people in the right roles
@@jamessharp1980He said in a previous video that the video team are paid from TH-cam revenue alone and not from the main business.
Algae in tank is because your tanks are white, and allow sunlight through to allow algea to form. Put a cover over the tank to stop the sunlight getting to the water, and your problem will be solved, or at least made better
Thank you for the suggestion, we will notify the team and Daniel
Well done Daniel, I've watched your journey since the very first episode. You my friend, are doing great things 👊🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️
👊❤️
This is just magic 👌🏼 on to the next steps and the first “we have a train in the yard, let’s get it off loaded “😉
😎🙌
Daniel, appreciate you sharing, this is one of the best channels on YT.
well done all at Ashville. a milestone. train in yard. well done everyone
👊
Thank you for answering my question 11:29, fantastic explanation:)
Your on the homeward stretch now Daniel keep on keeping on I can't wait to see a stand-alone video of the first train being unloaded this is where you can close some of your money back now that you have invested
Daniel you're a micro manager , most expensive yard supervisor in history
If Terry leaves your in Sh*t because your in the yard and not in the office
Basically off load some of your work to a trusted person for the yard work, give then a daily task sheet employ a mechanical guy who can look after the vehicles and plant you have on site and on lease, could be the same guy
Do you visit long term lease machines make sure they are in good shape , no surprises when they return from lease.
Your health is more important, the grave yard is full of micro managers that thought they were indispensable
you think your running a sprint ,
no your actually running a marathon
Best of luck

You have a good point, but He is probably in the yard for the content. No one wants to see 1 hour ashville weekly of him in the office.
The true life of an real entrepreneur. Great you show the struggle. The sacrifices are endless. once this push is over take a holiday. then keep at it. You defibetly need a maintenace/facility manager responseble for maintaining the fear. best luck.
we need long videos like these, thanks man, keep it at 1 hour and more few mins
Hi, the videos will always be as long as the content allows them to be. Sometimes it will be short and sometimes it will be longer. 👊❤️

When that train came in, just wanted to give give you a massive high 5, bloody brilliant. 👍
👊
I was just looking at where the visitors come into the yard at the turnstile and thinking the gap from the turnstile to the train what will be there. A bit of concrete could go there so the visitors that come in that way doesn't get mud and dirty on there shoes and it doesn't go all into your nice train when it's in place. Keep up the good work tho Daniel. Amazing guy to watch on my Sunday morning.
That moment at 9:21 was beautiful. Great to see the hard work paying off!

Seeing that loco in the new yard, what a milestone ! Congrats Ashville team.
daniel its amazing what you have achieved with your business, very proud of you mate👍
Boy oh boy you're busy but still managing to put out brilliant videos for us. Thank you so much. Best of luck getting the yard ready and profitable ❤
Hi Daniel, you need to give Liam a pressure washing facility close to where he is storing his machines.🤔
Daniel, I look forward to your weekly episodes every Sunday morning, I greatly appreciate your content and you sharing the journey of your dreams, success and challenges of your dream. keep up the good fight!

😂👊🙏
Been told, those rail tracks cut into small sections, make wonderful ANVILS ! Just a thought, Ashville Anvils !😊😊
You and your team are all doing a fantastic job Dan in such challenging time. When things settle down in the new yard? Your look back and think just how you made it through. But you will. God bless.
HEY kislux !! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
Great video Daniel, suggestion for the pedestrian walkway how about some raised flower beds surrounded by decorative slate from your stock, you could do the same next to the rail carriage when placed.
Awesome how big these locos are. Astonished every time. Like them. 😉😁
Daniel with all the work your team has been putting in with you there is doubts that you should do something very special for them this Christmas at least a company dinner
morning Daniel and watching crew
Man's gotta way with words, those intro's are awesome.
👊
Who needs top gear when you got a top geezer!! Also I keep hearing Asheville on the news over in the USA. Keeps reminding me of this and how it could be possible to help the lots of people who have been made homeless or lost lives in NC. Looking forward to next weeks episode
Well done Daniel, good to see the train in the new yard,
Anyone else just struggling with OCD re the 'Asheville Cement' sign? I'm ready to travel from Italy to wash it and maybe wash a few trucks as well 👀 😅
😂
Wow, it's not often you come across a good boss, it's even rarer you come across a great one!
Yard is looking great Daniel, take care of yourself during the process 😁
Well done man, all the best for the future
I can see that waterlogged 6f5 area becoming an absolute nightmare, with heavy trucks turning over winter. and you having the whole lot out and concreting it before long
Moist, compacted 6f5 has only ever caused me issues in the past and my eye was twitching watching all that work go into it man
Monumental Danial ... light at the end of the tunnel 😎
An hour+ episodes ❤️
👊
On the way to work on this Sunday morning, building my construction business with the same 7 days a week grind. 99% of my circle thinks i'm mad!
You're a great inspiration Daniel!
Thank you!
Keep your head up Dan, all we can do is move forward and upward. Cant stop, wont stop.
Keep smashing it mate. You're an inspiration!
Always look forward to 8pm Sunday night here in NZ, nice to unwind with some Ashville weekly before the working week starts again.
Oh yeah! Trains are running in the new yard! Congrats Ashville Team!

Every time "the project manager no one asked for" pops up it makes me laugh
how do they or who films them tho
😂
I love sundays, its all about work, getting back gor breakfast, cuppa tea and Asheville ❤
Good on you Daniel. I respect what you are striving for. Truth be told I had a little emptoianl moment for you when the loco came and went. All good things. Thank you for sharing and for your channel. Its appreciated my end, if this helps? Sending love sir!
Loving these hour plus videos. Just right for a Sunday morning
i dont know if anyones mentioned this but every time your in the car since you had the new system there is a buzzing sound
Yes we are aware and the team is working on it and unfortunately it's not Daniels fault. It needs to get fixed and we will sort it. Thanks for your patience and apolagies 🙏
Daniel, I recentley installed a 1000ltr water tank for water storage in my garden. I was told by the supplier to buy a black tank, because black tanks don't allow algae to form, and clear tanks do. So may have black tanks on the concrete trucks, and in the mean time paint them black.
Daniel with his poerty 👍🏾, all it needs now is a beat 😁....
Keep up the positive mindset Dan!
The way dan talks about health at around 47:00, hope there's no health complications dan, if there are ill be praying for you and the team 🙏
Daniel, I appreciate your sharing your thoughts and insights to running a successful business. It amazes me how you're able to keep up with all the aspects of your business. It's really inspiring. I'm sure as part of your personal health you find time to meditate daily. It will keep you centered. I was wondering if you have a documented maintenance of troubles and preventive service log of all the machines. Having experience running high level computer banking systems back when Preventive Maintenance (PM) was required, it was easy to postpone of drop entirely. When that happens all hell brakes loose. Suggest you have a dedicated schedule and I guarantee that your machines will run longer. The pool chemical solution was brilliant. Say, looks like you can use a Welder Fabber ramp for your Lorry's LOL. Keep the videos coming! Cheers.
38:52 daniel check out key traka there a electronic key cabinet and basically you set up users and what keys they are allowed and every key movement is tracked and can export log to USB in case one does go missing pricey but worth it we use them in the set up of engineer workshops and is a game changer
What does Terry do exactly?
Is he not responsible for operations? Therefore, responsible for vehicle maintenance? He should be ensuring that prestarts are being completed and machines are being greased/ maintained.
If not, you need a leading hand/ supervisor for the yard.
Terry is always there, a few weeks ago Daniel said he will be more involved with the yard operations and Terry looking after other things so they can get the yard running to where they need it since it’s a new yard, there’s lots of work to do. Terry wouldn’t manager of operations if he’s not capable I mean we have had Daniel praise his work time and time again.
Terry is Asheville
Congrats on the train success Daniel! (and team).
Well done Team! One step at a time!
Despite being unrelated content this channel is and has always been on of the biggest inspirations for starting my own one!
Hoping that staying transparent and authentic will help us grow but never expecting numbers like these, you’re smashing it mate.
your talk on 47:00, i feel you, those situations because of others, can break you... being in the deep and getting out takes mountain of energy,push and is not a happy one.. worse is the endclient take it lightly and don't understand the pressure that creat on people the on the owners of the businesses!
we will get out of there! Thanks for sharing, honesty brings ppl furthest
The resilience, remarkable! You shoudl give a university class on on it for business students. Bravo!
Terry sounded genuinely happy when you said the locomotive had arrived
It was good to see the trains return in stead, now this should help you make that bread! I enjoy watching progress in the yard, just hope the dent is not too great on the Mastercard!
These videos just get better! Keep pushing 😊
Need to get the 'pool guy' out to clean them tanks.... give u advice on algi control
Paul Christie is a great fitter! And a great bloke. Worked with me at Land Recovery years ago!
i know it is hard to do Daniel, but i am loving the longer episodes.
Damn, how has he lost so much weight so fast?! Not watched in about 2 months or so, but fair play!
Stress will do that for you sometimes 😎
This was like watching Uncut Gems this week! Hang in there Dan and team!
Another great video the yard is really coming together. You and your team have done so much already to the new yard. Keep up the good work. This is my new channel as I’ve had a new phone and unfortunately lost my old TH-cam channel won’t let me bk on it so had to set another one up.
Im plumbing and plastering my kids bedroom moaning about my todo list ... Then I watch Daniel and have to STFU. Crack on big man, you're an inspiration!
loving these long Episodes, Hopefully its something you can keep doing
