    Being much older than you two, what I find fascinating is the generational difference on how you view things. Objects & styles which were commonplace 50 odd years ago when I was a child are viewed in your eyes with wonder and amazement (like the old washing machine in the kitchen, trying to work out what it was!). I also used to be sceptical of what I thought as "trespass" but the interest that you both show, and they way you treated the property with care and respect, not even moving anything that was in your way has changed my mind and I am glad you have recorded this house for posterity. I look forward to watching your other videos.

    Love your videos. Being a lady of a certain age, it's amazing seeing old bottles of food, medicines, wallpapers etc that I remember when I was a kid. Incidentally, the yellow swan match box on top of the piano, these had a perforated tab on the inside lip that you tore off. If I remember you had to collect a certain amount and could send off for something. Also, we did change to metric and we did once measure everything in ounces. I remember the licozade bottle like that, they used to be wrapped in orange cellophane. Best bit of being sick and off school. This is like a trip down memory Lane, love it!

    I was born 1950,and everything from your video I recognised,my mum didn’t have a washing machine just a dolly tub and posher and a mangle wringer like in yours in video and of course a coal fired boiler to boil the water for washing,and an outside toilet with no water and twin seats one for adults and a smaller one alongside for child,there was a metal container under each one to catch the poo and pee,paper was torn up newspaper pierced with a nail and string threaded through and hung on a nail hung from the door,the dilly man would come Monday morning and take out the cans and empty into the lorry called a dilly cart.
    We didn’t have fridges but meat safes so flies could not blow the meat (lay eggs),we had a pantry with a marble work surface that was always cool and milk in the summer was placed in a pale of water drawn from the well in the back yard,mum always washed our hair using water collected in a water butt from the roof in the back yard,our bacon was smoked and the flinches were hung from the kitchen beams,and unhooked and sliced as required,a piano was always in the tiny front room which was only used on a Sunday afternoon and mum would play it very well,chickens 6 of them kept us in eggs in a small hut in the yard,bath time was Sunday night in a galvanised bath in front of the fire one a week only 1cold water tap in the kitchen,the fire grate had a small oven for baking etc and a very small tank holding water with a tap on the front all heated by the fire grate,no electric but paraffin lamps and candles,as a kid I would be fascinated by the fire place at nigh with the lights out watching the flames dancing in the grate and as the coal burned there would be a hiss as gas burst from the heated coal and ignited casting shadows on the ceiling and walls,mum and dad had very little money but we were so happy together,all our neighbours in the row were the same no jealousy at all in those days we were all equal.and the women all wore turbans and a fag in the corner of there mouths and wearing a pinky,Monday was wash day and every yard hand a 3ft wall separating each back yard from there neighbours along the terraced row near the docks,and a washing line mum would use a damp rag to wipe the soot of the line before hanging out the washing and using wooden pegs made by the gypsies who would come around twice a year selling there wears,the farm house you visited was truly 5*,very up market and the view incredible,yes the houses were very cold in the winter very draughty and wintertime all the windows would have ice on the inside,to keep warm in bed mum used hot water bottles and she would put coats etc on top of our blankets as extra insulation,the milk would freeze on the doorstep after the milkman left it at 5am and it would push the bottle tops which were foil up,that as a kid was the next best thing to ice cream lols.
    Yes the times were hard but we knew no other,would I go back to the old times? Yes in a heart beat but I would make quite a few changes 😉

    Awesome video Adam and Lisa. The appliance you believed may have been a dryer was a wringer type washer. They'd wash the clothing in the tub and then wring them out in the apparatus attached to the washer. My Mother and Grandmother both used those back in the 50's. It's unfortunate, it appears vandals have once again did their damage and threw things around. I was hoping this place would remain a hidden gem in a beautiful part of Wales. The waterfall was so peaceful.

    We also used Pounds, Shillings and Pence before decimalisation in 1971-ish [there were twelve pennies (d) to a shilling (sh) and twenty shillings to a pound (£), i.e. 240 pennies in £1]. Try getting your head around that during arithmetic at school when you're 9 years old... but we did. As an example: subtract £4, 3sh & 7d from £19, 12sh & 11d. Good luck! 😉

      @@wondergranny2299 No. At today's exchange rate, £1 (GBP) is approximately US$1.35. The 240 pennies I was referring to, were old English pennies, not American cents. Fyi, the word 'penny' is a nickname in US currency. The official title has been 'Cent' ever since the Constitution was ratified but before that time, the English penny was part of legal tender in the British colonies, however, the word 'penny' stuck in American dialect.

    I think I’ve finished watching all your videos now, and restarted watching the ones that I loved most, and I truly believe that this house is the one I would want to buy and live in to pass down to my kids and grandkids. I can actually imagine what it looked like in its prime. The view alone is absolutely beautiful! And the creek is an added bonus!
    Thank you for always being so respectful and calm in these homes! And love it when Lisa and or Dale goes with! So much to say 😂 Basically just wanted to say a big Thank you for being real!

      But yeah this home/land has all the beautiful view of nature the lake and waterfall and mountain...It'd be a perfect place for big family...cos the lack of people / loneliness does catch up to people. I grew up on the island in my grands house, it was a beautiful home for its time and only modern home stood outside the village, backyard was the ocean and on the other side of the land about less than 1/4 mile inland is the lagoon.
      It had 4 bedrooms 1 bathroom, a kitchen, big living room and glass windows the ones that kinda stacks up and you flip them together with little handle to open and close, It had double front door facing the road and one on the side to local island houses built outside the brickhouse...as local kitchen and two open houses with thatch roof cos it used to get so hot in the Brickhouse during the day. We only used it at night.
      the only thing it lacked was the electric..my grandpa (an engineer) built a windmill or watermill to run the electric with but didn't get to finish before he died.
      Anyways growing up where you don't get to see people much except on school days and Sundays..it was a peaceful life, the days were beautiful playing with nature and on the beach/lagoon but everytime the sun went down I had this sense of discomfort I still have till this day when I remember HOME at night. There was only me, lil bro, grandma and mom cos my dad often went away overseas so we didn't have a male at home for protection (what I had in mind) but luckily it was peaceful on the island nobody had bad intentions only looked out for each other. The only thing I was afraid of was the kids famous boogeyman of the dark ahaha.

You are definitely right about the military connection Adam, my Dad had trunks exactly like those ones and he was in the Navy. Initials on the trunk and all. The Lucozade bottle was iconic when I was growing up, most households kept one as a tonic after an illness. The bottle shape was instantly recognisable by touch for short sighted or blind people to identify it. Also, I grew up in the 70's and remember use by dates being added to food, down to some hoo-har that went on, not sure it was on packaging before then. Looking forward to more explores!
