The garden is looking so lovely!! I’m glad that you rehomed the cherry trees Clare😊💚 Framing upstairs is looking good Rob! Another really cool idea would be to put stone window shelves at the bottom of the windows? If they get wet it wouldn’t end up ruining them the way plasterboard would get ruined. 😁 It’s always a pleasure to see you guys! 😘💚💚

You’re making so much progress week to week. Those strawberries look delicious Clare. How are the bees? Rob I hope you feel better. You’re almost there. Take care ✌️💚

Congrats on getting in. Delighted for you both.

Make a tea with chicken poo to provide nitrogen but be careful to make it a bit weak.

It is very important to use a primer paint, on the first coat, not how expensive the primer is, but very necessary to stop the bleeding into the sheetrock.

You both are a credit to yourselves 👏 keep up the good work. I love your videos 👍❤️

Rob I would definitely change the blade. We have them like that at work same thing if they get wet and rusty the same thing happens so I just switch it out with another one ☘️☘️

Lovely job Claire with the bedroom and no you can’t beat a good batch of Irish stew with lots of veggies and freshly made homemade bread and gravy. We eat a lot of that over here especially in winter. Keep up wonderful job your both awesome ☘️☘️☘️

Just look at what you both have done. It is looking amazing. So give yourselves a big pat on your back. I really enjoy your videos.

Keep up the good work, as hard as it is, it will be so worth it when it's finished and you can look around and feel so proud of yourselves at what you have achieved in creating a beautiful home ❤🇬🇧

Take off the blade and soak it in simple green or a similar heavy duty cleaner for an hour or so . Then get a soft wire or nylon brush and brush off all the rust paying special attention to the teeth area . This should be a big improvement. Also when the board is about 4 or 5 foot through, stick a wooden wedge in the split between the two pieces and when you’re about 8 or 10 ft through, move the wedge back towards the blade again ….rinse and repeat

Hi Rob. A few saw tips: Firstly one type of blade is not a do everything solution you need a decent Ripping blade (fewer teeth per inch known as TPI) and a higher TPI blade for finer cutting. Secondly put some candle wax on the side of the blade and a little on the Fence. It isn't too difficult to sharpen a dulled blade with a file or even an angle grinder. Great video keep up the fantastic work.

We have had great success with simple dish soap and water in a sprayer , I even mist my house plants

Black fly very common with broad beans.pinch out the tops.The ants will sort them if u can wait.All part of the life cycle

Fatigue is kicking in , head down adrenaline up only 3 months left, 😅great work guys 🎉❤

If you eat eggs, save the shells and soak in water. Makes a good fertilizer. Also... for future referance...when I was a kid, my neighbor who was an older lady, used milk on tomatoes.. it really made them grow. Not sure if it was expired/soured milk, but maybe you can look it up.

The way I get rid of aphids on flowering plants is to use Dr Bonners Camping Soap and water. It makes them stuck, then blast them off with water. Camping Soap is biodegradable. On edibles, id use food safe soap. Not sure if you were dealing with slugs before, but for that you can get some ducks 😊

😊the garden area looks great how many acres is the property on ? I envy your quite rds , my cottage is rd side with cars doing crazy speeds on it 😢

New blade please

Claire, I read that "Been oil" kills aphids.

Sop and backing soda in water spray all over your plants and ground

My Grandfather's favourite crop was young broad beans. Admittedly, he was a bit obsessional about the first crop. Broad beads are aphid magnets. Ants, as we know, will place aphids where best they can "Farm" them in exchange for the aphid "Honeydew" . My Grampy's chosen deterrent was a combo of very soapy water and Derris Dust administered via a hand pump spray device. That and his OCD checking the plants. - Keep going guys - Good vibes from here to there.

Great progress🎉

it's not the blade you must chim it up after the blade to widen the gap in the with of the sawblade ( the pressuere on the blade of the side is to big)

Well done I feel for you both, day by day it will be worth it ❤

Clare, have you tried diatomaceous earth powder. I'm not sure about Ireland, but it works well in Idaho, for a number of garden pests, especially squash bugs and potato beetles. I also use a dish soap solution for aphids, but add a bit of cooking oil for "sticking power". You two are amazing! I love your positive attitude and your ability to learn as you go. Thanks for sharing the process with us. 💖💖💖

Claire, I try using some painter tape or duck tape if something stronger is needed to keep your bedroom dust free around the plastic. Opening some windows to suck the dust out away from the bedroom will help too hopefully, or a fan sucking it out of the area you’re working in. Just a thought! Great watch8ng you both as usual. Blessings for the upcoming week. M.

Broad beans notorious for blackfly, used to put all our rollups left overs in water and spray that on them, worked but gave up growing them in the end!!

Keep going it's going to be so worth it !

Broad beans seem to always get a black fly infestation. Soapy water spray definitely help, the best and safest solution.

hi there, there is a few things for the plants you can do that is pretty eco friendly but i will mention 2 things. first is to build like a barrier for the bugs, like a plank or something around the plants second is to plant things that Attract Beneficial Bugs like Ladybugs, hoverflies, parasitic wasps, lacewings and what not. here is a few plants that attract them (i google it so i may be wrong so you will need to look up what plants attract what yourself) there is a few more plants but this is what i found : cosmos, sweet alyssum, dill, yarrow oh btw one thing that could make rob more tired is all the things that is in the room whit rob, rob could try to have a "clean" work area and start whit one room and then make that one good then go to another room that you can "clean" up and then finish that one and so on. hope this helps a little.

Floating row covers should help with aphids, cabbage moths. Use earth staples to secure. I cover when I plant. Also, rhubarb are heavy feeders. I use just basic Miracle Grow.

your need a new blade. its not the table saw.

Love your show:)

Aw fantastic! What an amazing time, now you can sleep in comfort whilst doing the rest of your house, it’s looking amazing, sure is a beautiful part of Ireland you live, so gorgeous!

Love hearing all your stories. Do you remember or know of the Wren Boys? As a very young kid, after we moved from Rosebank and before our house in Blackrock, Dublin was ready to move into we stayed with my grandmother, Mum’s mother, in Co.Limerick. I used to be petrified of the Wren Boys when they came to Nana’s shop on St Stephen’s Day. And back in those days they would actually have killed a wren which broke my heart.

I'm not in the habit of re-commenting (I feel like that one from Killinascully) but I heard a great one recently and tried it, as long as you clean as much after the grout process and come back the next day, to tackle that haze look window cleaner is the best thing, to get rid of itt. Clever isn't it. .

Use them as a threshold floor divider between the kitchen and the dining/living. It will tie it all together. It might be too late I did it from the living room to the kitchen and back kitchen but regret not doing into the downstairs toilet where all the downstairs flow went. Other options are window sills or else plant holders/plates on the island or kitchen table......

Great job on the bedroom and great job on the stew! looks so yummy
