Recently went to Rhodes, had an Ant problem. Found the source of the nest and put a piece of cheese down everyday. Kept them occupied and no more Ants inside 😊 Happy days 😊
Hi Rick and Shelly watch you all the time you're a Great act together and Shelly is a Fab Singer watch every Thursday at Hoppys be over there October and December xxx
Rick, I’ve been watching and seeing that blooming ladder. Goodness me, it’s lethal man. It’s not long long enough. Love the updates pal. Looks great up there. Not joking about that ladder though 😳😳. Get a biggun!
Hi just a suggestion if you get some large trellis to go across the back wall where you put you wood, and a nice big bush it will give you some cover From wind and dust. The move washing poles up that end , them you can move your garden furniture near the pool. Also you can get large quiet generator that you can leave running for freezer and pool filter . Good luck
Love watching you two, its hilarious, definitely getting there though. It’ll take time and be worth it in the end, whenever that is, ha ha. Look forward to the next one!
I think a nice flower feature would look lovely. Not along the sides but near to where the furniture you moved at the other end. See if you can get any ideas from Pinterest. I’ve seen bikes painted and decked with flowers, I love them. Wheelbarrows, watering cans, so many things. They’re all beautiful. Ladders look great too. Before you throw anything away have a think if it’ll be good for flowers first.
Hey guys, whatever you do don't go in the pool 😮 . But here's an idea to clean the tiles down the far end. Take buckets of water from pool and spread over tiles it will act like bleach to clean tiles. Keep rolo and the cat safe tho xx luv you guys x
Noticed you sorted the inlet and outlet on the pool. The Finca is looking good, and I love the outside area. On a countdown now, this time in 3 weeks we will have just arrived. ☀️
Great vlog guys, i think you ought to get a plastic shed for storage at the bottom of your terrace and put some trellis up covered with that lovely purple bougainvillea help to stop the dust but will look lovely. Love the bathroom great job done
love these video's. I suggest a shed for the bottom corner. Once the tiles are cleaned the furniture will look better. You are definitely living the vision.
Hi just started watching ur latest vlog ,we've followed ur vlogs on the tomatoes, it defo works, cos our tom plants r now 3 inches high,so keep going ,wish we had ur heat to let them grow,so many people wud give their right arm for wot u lovely guys have. X❤
Another enjoyable vlog from you. Maybe if you start to charge the mice and the ants huge rent they might move out. Keep up the great work on that lovely place you have. Take care.
Hi Rick and Shelley, it’s looking good, that freezer really came up well with the Bleach, mind you I’ve not had Meat Balls since someone forgot to empty the freezer last time 🤔 Can’t remember who it was 😂😂 ,,think I would rather stay where you are rather than than in the thick of it, really nice and quite , great stuff these videos , enjoy your week . Cheers 🍻
Hi Rick & Shelly you need some ant stop bait stations ,they come 2 in a packet, they are brilliant Ants will take bait from them and bring it back to nest after a couple of weeks you will notice no more Ants, probably need one in each room and a couple at the door, Home Defence Ant Stop 😂
Hi we have a hot tub use all year round, we use Bromine better for skin, ph +, ph - to control the levels and some Clearwater occasionally if water gets abit cloudy, it’s looking good guys xxx
I’ve got that blanket you have on your washing line lol I got it in Tenerife 5 or 6 years ago :) I’m not sure I could live abroad but if I had a holiday home it would be in a quieter place but close to shops, pubs and restaurants so on the outskirts probably. You mean upcycle ha but I see the appeal and it’s nice where you are. Would you consider buying a house there, Tenerife is nice
Looking great but I hate stuff lying around, you need one of those plastic storage cupboards from Leroy or similar to store all the tools, generators etc If you don't have a coffee table to go in middle you could use a storage box as one. 🥰
Only way to get rid of the amount of chlorine is to empty 3/4 of pool water, refill , then run filter for few hours and re-test .. other comment about using it to clean tiles is a good idea , but rinse it off as the tiles will go patchy white .. good luck .. you are getting there now, just need to figure out your electric, you might need a better battery set up or inverter, to store you electricity better, maybe next vlog you can show people the solar on roof and battery store… if u can convert house hold Items to small voltage it might help. Ie.. you can get 12 volt appliances it all depends on inverter etc
Hi have you read the instructions right, i think you dip it in for a couple of seconds then out, then WAIT 15 seconds and read it, only going off what ive read on amazons strips but its what we do for urine test strips, the wait time is important, and yes im a nurse!!!
Lemon juice and white vinegar mixed with a drop of water and spray their trail, this mix makes them lose their trail so to speak. I would then get some cheap bleach and squirt around the perimeter walls(as close as you can so Rolo and Bella don't lock it) it will be a bit of a task but it does work. We had a problem with ants a few years ago and these are the things we were advised to do and they worked really well. I had a mini meltdown earlier this year as I saw an ant on my worktop, out came the lemon juice and vinegar mixed sprayed job done. Good luck, we will be in Hoppys on the 18th of July do you need anything bringing over that I can fit in my suitcase, not a 60 metre hosepipe lol. 😂
I haven’t made it to see Shelly sing yet. My sons are coming tomorrow which is exciting. I rented an airbnb for us and one son’s girlfriend is going to show up too.
Haha. Good to see you also have problems with the most puzzling phrase known to man. I mean ‘Feng Shuee’. What the hell’s that all about???? God knows. Believe me,,, one of Maria’s annoying traits 🤔🤔😉
Great vlog ❤… but why don’t you just have a smaller pool that’s lower and it’s just for Rolo he can get in and out of all day some have sprinklers which are specifically for dogs, easier to empty and refil and your pool stay hygienic..😊
Recently went to Rhodes, had an Ant problem. Found the source of the nest and put a piece of cheese down everyday. Kept them occupied and no more Ants inside 😊 Happy days 😊

Those stretch hoses are cheap in the uk £15 for 30 feet get someone to bring one over very light for there suitcase x
Another enjoyable vlog from you. Maybe if you start to charge the mice and the ants huge rent they might move out. Keep up the great work on that lovely place you have. Take care.

Thanks so much John
Angie said the bathroom looks great
Them stretchy hoses go a long way. We use one at our caravan 😊
Them stretch hose r brilliant
Your garden furniture , sofa etc will look great once you ve cleaned the terrace x
Lovely way of living ❤
Make a plant stands with the bed frame get them of three floor
pop up gazebo would be a cheap option for the bottom corner to hide all the stuff to sort

Great topic
Hi we have a hot tub use all year round, we use Bromine better for skin, ph +, ph - to control the levels and some Clearwater occasionally if water gets abit cloudy, it’s looking good guys xxx
Thanks for the tips
Try white vinegar to clean the freezer
Thanks for the tip!
I’ve got that blanket you have on your washing line lol I got it in Tenerife 5 or 6 years ago :) I’m not sure I could live abroad but if I had a holiday home it would be in a quieter place but close to shops, pubs and restaurants so on the outskirts probably. You mean upcycle ha but I see the appeal and it’s nice where you are. Would you consider buying a house there, Tenerife is nice
Happy days
Looks much better good work Lol😂
Hiya rick & shelly hope u r both ok.luv Brandie & Mark from Pontefract xxxxx
Look great
Hi both, you might think about an ecoflow let me know your thoughts.
Looking great but I hate stuff lying around, you need one of those plastic storage cupboards from Leroy or similar to store all the tools, generators etc If you don't have a coffee table to go in middle you could use a storage box as one. 🥰
How did rolo like the new dog
Rolo was fine to be honest.
Only way to get rid of the amount of chlorine is to empty 3/4 of pool water, refill , then run filter for few hours and re-test .. other comment about using it to clean tiles is a good idea , but rinse it off as the tiles will go patchy white .. good luck .. you are getting there now, just need to figure out your electric, you might need a better battery set up or inverter, to store you electricity better, maybe next vlog you can show people the solar on roof and battery store… if u can convert house hold Items to small voltage it might help. Ie.. you can get 12 volt appliances it all depends on inverter etc
Thanks so much for all the useful tips. TBH we have spent all morning emptying the pool so we can refill it.
I remember years ago someone chucking 2 or 3 bucket 🪣 loads full of powdered chlorine into the 25 metre swimming pool in Wetherby..
If you get a little water feature it will drown out the sound of the freezer hum 😊
Great idea
Great couple❤x
Get a nice picket fence on top of the wall, it would look great and stop rolo jumping over the wall and help hide the wire fence
Good idea
How much is your gas cost it's 31 euros here in ireland
18.50 euro
White vinegar and water solution to get rid of Ants Guts
I meant Guys
why dont you spray the freezer the same colour as the house so it blends in
lol. Not a bad idea
Watch Rolo with the Chlorine!
Will do

Thanks so much lol. We are Useless at these things haha
Haha We are fine for things thanks
Enjoying your vlog, try boric acid for the ants.
Thanks for the tip
i wouldnt use bated mice traps you may get a dead mouse in trap but the bate is still there attracting more mice
True but there is nothing else here
Dad lived in Tenerife found insects don’t like dettol from Iceland
Why don’t you have another hoover that’s just for the patio
Not a bad idea
I think the patio furniture would look better on the middle square (if you know what i mean). Looks too far away where you’ve put it.
Rick has the dog ever jumped in the pool
No Never on his own
Up cycle ...
HAHA Thats the word lol
when i win the lottery i will buy you villa Casa Amore xx
Deal lol
The ants will keep coming. They’ll just have soft bottoms with all the Talc.
Haha V Funny
I haven’t made it to see Shelly sing yet. My sons are coming tomorrow which is exciting. I rented an airbnb for us and one son’s girlfriend is going to show up too.
Hope you are having a wonderful time
@@RickandShelley yes and my sons come today! We will for sure visit hoppies. Is it Wednesday that Shelly sings at 330?
Up scale
Haha. Good to see you also have problems with the most puzzling phrase known to man. I mean ‘Feng Shuee’. What the hell’s that all about???? God knows. Believe me,,, one of Maria’s annoying traits 🤔🤔😉
No idea what it means lol
Great vlog ❤… but why don’t you just have a smaller pool that’s lower and it’s just for Rolo he can get in and out of all day some have sprinklers which are specifically for dogs, easier to empty and refil and your pool stay hygienic..😊
Sounds like a plan
Buy a shed !
I wouldn’t let the dog in again not good for you or the mutt!!! 😮
For sure! Treated wood is poison!
I thought so also
We think the garden furniture will look so nice when that end is clean
Fingers crossed
