Wonderful that your back on You tube. I missed your postings. Life will get normal again soon I am sure. You folks are so innovative when you do things. Big project, but it all gets done soon enough. Will you be able to get your gardening in Portugal started? I know you two love your garden. This will be a busy year for you and you will accomplish so much. Once the house is fixed, it will be behind you and you can get back into the retirement mode. God Bless and Take Care!
Thank you, I see you two have been so busy on your land to get potatoes and corn in 👍 Looking forward to seeing your trip with family too. Take care, Elaine
I am so happy to see you too back on the radar! Life happens, transitions are necessary, but it sounds like you're doing well, and we look forward to watching you both succeed.
I find it interesting that you can do temp work that pays enough to fix the things that need fixing. And employers are ok with you only for a temp situation. Glad to see this and see that you are all doing well.
Oh !!! ...So nice to have news from you , we missed you and your pip's chat , I hope you could solve the problems of your house, and I look forward to see you soon again in Portugal keep well and safe...
Pleased you are back, I can so relate to your experience in the Aire, I have stayed in that one myself. Your pace of life differs in Portugal to UK so no doubt that would have impacted on you
Hi Elaine and Darren 😊 Missed you! Love listening and watching you guys. Wishing you the best with the house repairs and job search. We understand your situation, well, as we deal with similar challenges as you both. I know you guys will succeed. 🌷 Sam
Brilliant to see you both looking so well and Max. I missed your videos as the were so natural and real life .Take care and mind yourselves yourselves and Max❤
Your account of the journey to Calais reminded us of our early days driving to Central Portugal in our car, sleeping in the cab with sleeping bags. On one particular journey it was -9C in Bordeaux and my head was freezing after a few hours so we decided to carry on driving to warm the car up and catch another couple of hours sleep further on. Now we have the luxury of a campervan with diesel heater, oh and a toilet in case the faciliteis are locked! I'm pretty sure I know which aire you were talking about staying at. Last time we stopped there it was lashing down and the parking area was flooded. All part of the adventure 😀 Good to see your update
As always guys . So nice to see you guys looking so good. Great to get your car back. Going in the right direction. Sending you Well Wishes from Harriet, Jim and Yuki
What a lovely surprise, I was honestly thinking about you today and was going to message you. Glad you are both well, and as for the house, well, we know don’t we that these things are sent to try us. I’m just back from La Petite Maison, and I always use the tunnel, so I too know that Aire well. As you say, the flexibility is just great, and the boarding and driving off is so easy, I like being straight onto the motorway and being able to get on with my journey. Take care both of you and I hope jobs turn up for you soon xx
Hello lynne, hope you're well. Hope you had a lovely time in France, the weather hasn't been too good!!! Our friends have all been saying how wet March was, I think it's just been wet and grey everywhere, but April much brighter. Thanks for sticking with us 💕🐶😊
Isn't life crazy at times hey!... but we do come through. Fully get the 'interloping' thing!! I rented my flat to my son while l travelled, came back for a 'visit' and ended up staying longer... felt so bad as he was paying me rent and l was intruding... all worked out in the end... Phil moved to Australia and l sold up to release equity... always unexpected adventures hey!! Looking forward to hearing your story of the last couple months... Take care all of you 💞
So how are you both finding time travel? I’m in Australia when I travel to Holland to see family I arrive on the day I left, it’s mind bending. The thing with plumbing it is time architects and builders put more thought into where they run plumbing lines. My thoughts are that all plumbing should be run on the outside wall of a house with doors to access on the outside. This can be done in all environments.
So glad to see you missed your vlogs, even if your not in Portugal please still vlog I was always interested in when you did those vlogs about cheep food packages, and cooking as well. Hello from Australia .
Hi Carole, great to hear from you 💕 It's been a bit crazy for the last 3 months, but we're getting sorted now and back in the swing of videos 👍. Thank you x
Glad to see you both. Don't understand the government getting 2000 of the roof money. Kathleen. Actually, I just looked it up. They kind of equated it to sales tax. I know if we put a new roof on we pay nothing to the government but if we buy goods in some but not all states you pay sales tax. Confusing.
Nice to see the three of you again! I'm a little confused, you sound like you've only just arrived in the UK, but you've been there a few months already, haven't you? You still haven't found jobs? Well, hope you find something soon, or maybe I misunderstood. Any how, good luck, kisses to Maximilian he's got those classic puppy dog eye's! Hope you get back home soon. xx Lilly & Weston 🐶
So good to see you all again! Yay! Elaine, I love the new hairstyle, very chic. I'm so sorry you all had to go through that but it appears it's getting sorted out. You both seem much more relaxed now than in the January patreon video but that's understandable being in the trenches of it all. Can't wait to see your next video. Hang in there lovely friends. ❤ Oh! One more thing. I'm highly impressed that your roof has lasted that long!! Wow! Just incredible! I'm assuming it's tile?
@@PensionersinPortugal Thank you so much Elaine! I think my dad felt the same way about moving in as you both first felt when you moved back in. He's gotten more comfortable and we understand each other's habits and schedules. I'm sure you're feeling much more comfortable about your arrival at the house and different schedules. I'm sure your kids are elated that you're all there. ❤️
Hi guys, was thinking of you both. Glad your OK. Would your building insurance cover the bathroom leak and the roof leak.? Glad your back on channel. 💚
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, Way don't you make the roof your self's and then come back to Portugal you have experience, I miss your vids 😁🌞
Its a sign that you are too young to retire and move away. You have your health that enables you to work. I relate to the house problems. My house was new when I bought it. It was found it was built not so good. Now at over 40 years it needs a new roof. A large trees roots have broken into my sewer line and will cost over $10,000 to repair. I too have a small 2 bedroom home. Just right size for retiring in. My only son is a part time user. We both have health issues. I can not work. So my retirement fund has dwindled. Life is a Beach.
OMG What a pleasant surprise! Hello you two. So happy to see you back again. Even if for a moment.
Hi ❤❤❤❤❤❤ you have been missed and I’m glad you are well 😊 sending you many blessings 💗💗💗💗

Hooray your back!😃😊😘🤗
Hi. Missed you both.
So glad to see you guys
You are such a lovely couple. Remember insurance may cover the costs of resultant damage of the leaks.
Doesn't cover wear and tear/age related....it's an old roof....if it had blown off in storm, possibly, but this is a maintenance issue

It's been a bit crazy for the last 3 months, but we're getting sorted now and back in the swing of videos 👍. Thank you x
Great to see you back. :) Did the mechanic say what he found wrong with the car? Hopefully your mechanical woes have come to an end.
Lovely to see you, and both looking good . We are still here for when you return to Portugal 🇵🇹 xx❤
Thank you so much!!
Good to see you again x

It is like sales tax
That was a nice surprise. I hope things are working out for you.
Yes, starting to get sorted now, everything seems to take sooooo long here!!
@@PensionersinPortugal it's never ever easy to get a lump of money together and then, to get people out to fix a roof. Kind regards from Mike and Jane
Yay The PiPs 🎉
😊🐶
Love to see you both 👍🥰
So glad to see you again😘

I think they started with one current video and then went back and showed a previous video from when they had just returned to the UK. Kathleen

Hi guys, was thinking of you both. Glad your OK. Would your building insurance cover the bathroom leak and the roof leak.?
Glad your back on channel. 💚
Doesn't cover roof wear and tear/ age. Bathroom was easier to do ourselves, but thanks for thinking of us 😊
Welcome back, I missed you 💕
Thank you!!
Love your hair Elaine.
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, Way don't you make the roof your self's and then come back to Portugal you have experience, I miss your vids 😁🌞
Needs more experience than we have
❤Maybe equity release? Just a thought x
Looked into it, decided against 👍
What about reseadency in pt you have to spend so long in pt for it to be legal don't you?
Yep, more than 6 months
Will your home insurance not cover the roof repair?
Doesn't cover wear and tear/ age related issues 👍
@@PensionersinPortugal Oh no. How awful. I'm sorry to hear this. I hope it doesn't work out crazy expensive for you.

We just have to do what we have to do, you're right, we are lucky to have the option to work 👍
See Patreon! ✝️🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧🇵🇹❤👣🍍🤗
Do you have to get visas to work temporarily in the UK?
No
🙏❤️👍

Your short hair is real cute , Elaine.
Registrations!?
Has jade taken her chanel down, I can't find it anymore 😢
Not sure, she hasn't made any videos for quite a while. Hope you're 😊👍
@PensionersinPortugal hassle her for me will you🤣 say Grahams insisting you make a video 🤣🤣❤️
Couldn't the men folk help out. Or are they lazy like mine.
?

Great to see you both
Lovely to see you again.🎉
Nice to see you again🇫🇷
