The mature workers are worth their weight in gold. They never stop until the job is done. I think you need to supply tea and cakes though or they may go on strike.

tempting to make an open plan reverse layout now you have all that space, particularly with vaulted ceilings

I cannot believe your aunty and uncle were able to work so hard AND still have energy to dance!!

Keep the trampoline! You could make a moon gate / arch for the garden or use it for making garden bed covers.

Some more great work from you all, well done.

I continue to be impressed by your willingness to get stuck in, you have been a very able assistant to Gav. His power & your support make you a godd team. I guess you get it from your Aunt & Uncle. they are truly amazing. You seem to be quite skilled in the art of using a shovel now, and, there is an art.

Thanks again for another film with footage showing the changes. The piggery clearance has allowed you to create a vision for its use and that clearance…….well who doesn’t like a good sort out? The relly’s are funny but getting stuck in brings out the lengthy humour built up over a number of years. It’s really warming to see it. Upstairs clear and the vaulted look is amazing! Keep at it all, it’s already taking some shape. Best of luck, Wayne

Fantastic😂

Wow! So impressed with your Aunt and Uncle. They had so much stamina. 😊

You will notice that the older the wood used in the house, the slower the growth of the tree that the wood is made from. A 2x4 with a longer growth cycle is stronger than one grown in a short growth cycle. Essentially, all the lumber we buy today is short growth lumber. They plant trees with a fast growth cycle, so they have less investment involved before making money. Older wood tends to be more dense, so heavier. Getting nails out can be a pain. However, there is also a different patina to the older wood. Those old grains have had time to age and deeper in color. There are a lot of folks who assume old wood is just trash, but when cleaned up, it's quality surpasses modern wood. I encourage you to salvage every piece you can & reuse it. I've been using salvaged wood in furniture restoration & upcycling for over 40 years. There is a big difference in old & new wood over the last 25 years; huge difference if you go 50 or more years.

Great video, very entertaining 😊

Family is priceless. Especially your aunt and uncle

That was very productive and so much fun to watch. Invite your family back soon ❤🇨🇦

Enjoyed your video, loved your aunt and uncle!😊

I agree it would be a great chicken coop

The pigery doesn't look like the same building, it's quite charming. As for your family, labour and entertainment, what more can you ask for. Really looked like loads of work, but just as much fun with them there. Great video.❤

That wooden structure looks like a bench vise, if I'm seeing correctly and there's a part that turns on one side.🤔 It's really amazing how much you have done this week and the transformation upstairs and in the pole barn is massive. Great seeing family pitch in and help so enthusiastically.❤️

Oh my word, what an amazing couple! Thoroughly enjoyed this video. There’s life in us old pensioners yet!

Grey Army!!! 👍

Your Aunty and Uncle are amazing 👍

Could you please review the sound volume on your videos. Very low levels comparative to all my other RUclips videos I watch.

It's great to see your aunt and uncle putting a shift in. Stay active everyone, it's the path to staying sharp

GREAT job 👏🏻

Looking great..the before and after shots are brilliant. The older generation seem to have more energy than our generation....probably less time stuck in front of computers!! 😂

One little trick with the wheelbarrow - leave it pointing in the direction it is going to empty it. This saves having to do a 8 point turn with a full load. Pig enclosures were usually cobbled or slate floor to stop the pigs rooting the floor up, so get a power washer to blast one corner and see what you have got. I hope there was no damage with Storm Darragh, I had trees down. The trampoline probably blew in at some point as they like flying. Have a couple of days off this Christmas - everything can wait, and you have enough wood to keep warm!

Well done on all the clearing. So much to do, yet you are getting through the first stages quite quickly. Thank you for the update

You need a couple of pigs now for the pig sty

Doesn't it qualify the difference between the post war 'boomer' generation and today's light weights. Kudos to Auntie & Uncle

We are really enjoying this journey. I'm sure Gavin knows but modern timber isn't a patch on the ones coming out of the ceiling. Once denailed they have character. A vaulted ceiling is definitely the best decision.

Thanks for posting and sharing. Great tour of the property.

It doesn't matter which renovation project you watch there's always a bloody trampoline, very strange. Terrific progress, well done. Regards Jim

Stripping the ceilings upstairs gives you the illusion of so much more space. Great decision! You have the epitome of a blank canvas now - it'll free you up now end. I also like the way you're making progress on the out-buildings. It's so satisfying putting in the hard work (until you start to spend actual money on the place 😭). Really enjoying your content!

Thanks for posting and sharing. Looks like you all got a lot done.

Our home has very high vaulted ceilings and our climate can get quite cold but we’ve found ceiling fans make a massive difference in heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. We run them all year-you just have to reverse them obviously 😬. Just a thought for the design phase down the road. Best of luck!

The upstairs already looks grand. All that exposed brickwork and beams. Love it!

Grey power yay 👍

I am really glad your Uncle found a horseshoe! It’s a wee shoe for a wee bit o’luck! It’s not clear how long you 3 worked on the piggery but it has been transformed. Well done to all!

😳 Lucky Gav is a in the Building game, blimey that is really gutting a house !!!! At least you have now got loads of firewood 😳 Your enthusiasm Reminds me of my youth

I loved how he just kept filming her as she struggled thru the window, heaven forbid he help her 😂😂

The outbuildings are gorgeous,wish I was helping out on it

Your poor Mum! Your dad knows how to use a spade too lol

Another great video and yah for Aunty and Uncle,very hard workers.The piggery looks great.Was Gav impressed when he saw how much you guys had achieved while he was away?

Is that wooden structure an old saw horse? Plenty of wood to dry and store ready for fires in the house. Crack on peoples

What does a Doctor of Destruction do when all is demolished? Tune in next month....

My goodness that clean-out effort was a job and a half. Well done!

watching how hard your family works is wearing me out! oh & it was hard to hear this video.

youll be in by christmas

Well your Aunt and Uncle sure pt heir backs into it , god bless them.

The wool can be used in the garden as weed suppression and slug deterrent.
