Give a big like for Dan getting in those kids armbands 😂😂😂

Last summer we broke the pool , too😢. And we tried everything we could to seal the hole. I bought four different adhesives and two patches, but nothing helped. The water pressure destroys a hole in the pool 😮. I had to buy a new one, so do not worry if you can not fix it. Good luck and lots of strength. ❤❤❤😊

Hey Friends, It's great to see You Both getting things back in order and it looks like You're both having too much fun in the pool. Stay Safe and be Strong.

You two sure have been working hard the grass is well down now glad to see you both enjoying your selfs in the water pool with arm bands and goggles and snorkel you seem to be having some well deserved fun times apart from work stay safe see you on the next video

Dig a pond 1 foot deep 8by ten feet wide use the soil from digging the thing throw around the pond as a retaining berm and line the thing with pond liner put here and there a few small boulders to keep it down, put plants around and then hook it up to a small solar powered slow pump pumping water from your well let it drain out at the top in one or two areas and use the water at this spot to water some of the plants, this way you’ll ways have fresh water in there and it also clears up your well, you can improve your well by putting an 6 foot diameter well housing in the so rounded with filter cloth and drain rock, and cover the hole thing and you have nice and clean water, just an idea from some body living a long time in the wilderness and building things from scratch and from what you find in nature or on the dump

Maybe use the frame for shade netting over a fruit / tomato bed ? Easy to tie tomatoes up inside

We have a driveway like yours to our land and after every rain it developed those rivers (ditches) running down it. Unless you dig ditches out to the sides for the water to run off it will keep on happening. Hard to maintain a gravel/dirt driveway when the sides are higher than the drive. It was always a talking point among our family and in the winter they had to park their cars at the end and we would go and get them in our 4 wheel drive. Part of the fun of living on the land.

Nobody can ever say you two are afraid of hard graft !!

You completely restore my hope on humanity. The things we love about our pets, you have It, and it means we lost it thousands of years ago, and you shows us all, we still have the purity animals never lost. Thanks.

The bantering in the plunge pool is super cute 🥰

So glad to see you have some fun on the property! Take care, Steve

This video is sponsored by raid insect killer! Haha glad the wasps have gone what a start to your return home!! Well done Dan for getting rid of them makes sure to seal up all the holes..How's the truck doing now? Just been working on my overlander no wasps yet! Keep at it both...working so hard but it's paying off! Much love from Wales

Your land is looking good. It must have been a lot of hard work turning your hay field back into a mowed lawn. Glad to see you are getting back into a routine and are able to have fun while doing it. Your new pool will be so refreshing in the heat of summer. Loved your floaties and tube with goggles and snorkel, way too funny. Might I say Laura looks very stunning in her bathing attire. Have a great week.

You should get something to make bubbles in the plunge pool (no, not like that Dan!) make it a jacuzzi! Also, regarding the el ratto problemo - it might be worthwhile unscrewing several boards to get at them? 😁

Plunge pool action! Well done for safety first!! Haha lush to see you both cooling off and having fun after all the hard work! I remember the video of you guys connecting the water pipes! Haha doing a great job!! 👍

Hi Laura and Dan! So wonderful to see you both again! Your land is looking so much better. I am very happy for you both. The part with the plunge pool had me laughing. My son came in my room and asked "What in the world are you laughing about?" I showed him and he laughed as well. It seems so refreshing and it refreshed my heart to see you both so joyful. I truly love seeing your smiles and hearing your laughter. You both work so hard to get so much completed day after day. This is why I watch your videos twice if not more. It is fun to pause and look at God's creation. I pray for you both everyday. God bless you both and so much love in Christ! ~John Romans 15:13 NKJV - "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Philippians 4:4 NKJV - "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!"

Sprinkle the fun and laughter, always! Everything looks great! Keep on truckin 😊

It's good to see the grass cut and see your lovely land looking forward to seeing your next projects glad your doing health and safety very important in your deep pool 🙈💞🙏🤗☀️🍀

Howdy Laura and Dan. You two are hilarious. How many laps will you do in your pool, one 😂. And the floaties. At least you won’t drown. haha. What, no rubber duckies… Hey, your land looks terrific. You have done so much. Can’t wait for your next video. Have fun you two and blessings. Stay safe and see you soon.

Great to see your banter after all the hard work. Keep having fun, between the work guy, love your posts.

You both deserve the dip after all the hard work and trama dealing with critters.

I thought to give u a tip on washing clothes get 2-5 gallon buckets and a plunger.. Drill holes in the bottom of 1 bucket and and drill holes in plunger put water with soap in 1 bucket clothes with holes in other take plunger and plunge clothes till clean pour out and rinse hang out to dry!! There is a example just google DIY washing with buckets and plunger 😊

You need to order a shade cloth to replace the poly for the tunnel.

Great video. Thank you for sharing. You are both doing a great job on the land. Take care.

Love your vlog, i would keep the green house material for your vegetable netting to save pennys x

You could use the poly-tunnel frame to go over your pool, just fasten some sun-shade material over the top of it. Using plywood (particleboard) for the top cover you see doesn't work. You have tin left over, fashion a cover out of that! I think it would work and may heat the water a bit. 😊

I dont think I've ever laughed as much as i did at those armbands and rubber ring 😂

Hi Guys, well you have been busy the land is looking good and love the plunge pool with your snorkel and goggles and armbands you were having some fun. Have you started your residencia yet?❤️❤️

A tremendous effort has gone into clearing grass! I saw you said it took about a week to do it all. Do you plan to start a garden spot or do your neighbours give you enough produce it's not worth your effort to try to grow things until you can be there full time? Good to see the cooling off fun times! Looking forward to hearing about your visa situation❤

That was great you two it looks like you got it cleaned up Laura was a bit skeptical about the cold pool thank you for sharing and your time was really great never miss a video and can't wait for next video.

Hello guys! Another great video and great humour always entertainment and a good laugh. Keep up the good job. Big hug ✌️☮️

Working hard allows you to play hard! Don't let anyone tell you any different!

Refreshing!!! Ready to start again and continue projects. Love and be safe!😘🤗🌼🇻🇪

I know it's not all roses but it's always nice to see you both full of humour during this clean up and re-set ... I wish you easy transition and the papers come through so you can make it your permanent home .. always love your videos thanks guys

Now that’s what I call life/work balance, lol! A hoot! 😀👏❤️

It is a real fun watching you guys, you better get those plastic transparent sheet for your green house they are long lasting and more reliable and will handle that strong summer sun better,thanks for sharing

We had a polytunnel like yours in north derbyshire and all the little squares of plastic fell out after two years so we got a proper polytunnel cover and so far it has lasted nine years.

While I complete watching you fix the pool 😊 Great job guys 🎉 14:22

Good job you two! Just a suggestion to make it easier to unload gravel or dirt from the truck bed...put a tarp down in the bed and put the material on top of it. Then, at the dump site, pull enough material out of the bed with shovels until you can grab and pull the tarp off the end of the tailgate. Clean bed and no material in the hinge area of the tailgate. 👍

Something I saw someone else do is somehow run a piece of PVC pipe with a cut off valve so you can empty it easily to clean it out.

You both seem to be having a blast. Always laughing and making the best of situations. Stay safe!

Love watching your videos as you both seem to be cheerful all the time. You are doing something we have wanted to do for years but just never got round to it yet, seems a pure pain having to leave for soo long until you get your residency sorted.

Smiling people are happy people! lots of smiles on this weeks video, great to see you both relax after another weeks hard work on the homestead. It’s looking better every week we see it, “keep the faith” and look after each other.

Hi Guys, just to let you know I think your awesome!! Don't remember how I started watching you probably DIY related I'm 64 yrs old and have had to do a fair bit myself and I totally relate to your have a go attitude,all power to you!! Your one of my first go too's when I get the chance to watch KZfaq......positive vibes folks😊 ( currently attempting to travel from UK to Oz by motorcycle alone)

i heard rats mice etc hate peppermint extract so try that Laura also Dan ive seen a few videos on guys building sheds from pallets you may need some pressure treated 4by4s and the proper material for the flooring and some metal for roof but the siding could be all pallet wood Great Job you guys keep Rockin never give up and keep the dream alive 🎉❤❤❤

Happy days ..have fun guys

Hahahaha...hilariously funny you two with the plunge pool!!! 😂😂😂

Ibc tanks make the best plunge pools. Clad the steel frame with pallet wood,3 cut top off ibc carefully as the top can be reused as the lid. It has a tap in the bottom of the ibc which is perfect for emptying the water out.

Just seems you need a tractor and a road leveling device OR a front add-on device for your truck to shape the gravel on the road.

You guys are gonna be OK I have faith in you both

Use plywood or shutter plywood very strong!

It was necessary to have some fun. It keeps you sane.

Love the plunge pool guys

Hey you 2! I had a great laugh at you both this week with the plunge pool😂😂😂. Just want to say though that you need to be careful on really hot days, hopefully the water will heat up a little but still be refreshing. With sun your body can go into shock with drinking lots of ice cold water. So May be the same if the pool stays that cold. Cos the sun's different to a sauna and plunge pool.😉sorry for the essay😂😂😂

Great video guys, I loved the fact Laura had her seat belt on driving thru the land 😅 Have you thought of cutting the top off of an IBC for a plunge pool? Also it'll be easier to connect pumps/filters to the plastic ❤

Hey my friends seems like you’ve done a lot of work on the land 👍 and as far as the water pool yr having to much fun 😀

Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless us all in divine light 💓. Ha ha funny, cold water is very healthy. But I also would have a hard time to get into the pool. You guys did a lot of work already, good work 👍😁💪👌👏👏👏.

The arm bands are very fashionable. You both rocked them . Great to have somewhere to have cool dip. Maybe get a shade sail to keep or nice and cool

Y’all!! Bravo y’all are amazing, I-will suggest that y’all can use the frame for a greenhouse if y’all thinking in do a garden, the frame is fantastic for that purpose. Just need clear plastic.

Great to have some water close by to cool off! Funny

So funny works alright keep you cool no one else will have one like you Dan you should build some steps or decking round the top and you could put a nice sun shade over the top for when it gets hot hot hot

Maybe get some recycled concrete for the pot holes i think it’s cheap might help you out when it’s wet 👍I wish I was younger I’d be out there like shot ❤❤❤

you need gravel in those potholes and soft spots to do the job properly, but if you don't have then I suppose, if you did have, you'd put course gravel first or rock and finer layers as you built up...but you'd need to do the whole length of road that was scoured out

Amazing. You doing great and I like seeing you laughing

Great work getting the land cleared up and seeing that you both are having a little fun! 😊😉

Muy originales ustedes ,me encantan ,hasta la proxima😊

Love the plunge pool - epic summer evenings 🤙🏻👏🏻🥂

Always enjoy you two! Tug of war..you both do entertain

Caught up to new pool plunge , well done for getting into cold water xx❤❤

Great plunge pool, maybe use the old one to cover the top to keep things out while not using!

It's great you got the pool working again so you could enjoy a refreshing dip after working in the heat of the day. I love that Dan was so safety conscious 😂😂😂 and I could tell by Laura's face that the water was 🥶 🥶 freezing, keep enjoying yourselves 😊😊

You two are amazing & so nice to see u having fun xxxxx😅

I been waiting for this and you guys didn’t disappoint love it the home stead is coming along nicely (and you are a gorgeous lovely beautiful lady 😊) remember slow and steady guys be careful and safe ❤❤❤❤❤until next time

Hi Laura and Dan ,love your vlog another great vídeo, stay strong, God bless you 🙏❤

Build yourselves a tine drag for the truck. You can keep the road in good condition year round. 😊

Well done you two, lot of hard work.

You two are rad, keep going. I look forward to catching up with your vids

I would suggest for your soaking pool to, as you stated get a better liner, and 2nd use light colored tin to reflect the sun and that way you will have no dirt ect in the water. If you put a hinge on the tin, so that when you want to use it, it is a simple matter of lifting the tin cover and when you are done, put the tin back in place with also a latch of course. One sheet of tin cut in half might be all you need for the lid.

After all the hard work fixing potholes and sorting out the poly tunnel. Nick who has a channel called Project Portugal suggested in his most recent video that scaffold debris mesh makes a good shadecloth as it's strong and UV protected so doesn't disintegrate in the sun as easily. It would make an excellent cover for the poly tunnel. It can be bought in 3M X 50M rolls for about £40 in the UK.

It’s good to see you all having fun and not all work. Lovely couple.

thanks for the giggle

Hi new follower here ,loving ur little pool .enjoy

Love it 😅 glad you’re having fun ♥️

Great job guys it will all come together in the end best wishes Phil 👍❤️

Laura and Dan, just a quick hello and blessings! I pray your week to come goes very well! ~John

Great craic again and a good laugh with the dip. About your rats problem, have you thought about a cat? Great pest problem solvers. 😊

pulling that pipe - Dan with the gloves and workpants, Laura rocking shorts and sandals :-)

Loving the way you work together : )and your Divine mercy Jesus in your van : )

You have birds singing . Nice

Awesome and funny video!!

Hi Guys enjoyed your video from a snoggie in Pedrógão Grande 😊

Great job

Yay! Fun!

Dan You are a very lucky fella.

😂😂😂😂 you go Dan🏝️🏝️🏝️

Use Jay's fluid and put it in the wall that should sort out the rat problem

Y’all are too funny!

Those cheap tarps just aren't designed to stand up to much sun, even UK sun. Just like the polytunnel.
