    SOOOO well done!!! Perfect music!! It made what some might consider to be a "simple" job of restoring a stone wall in the privacy of her own bedroom, and elevated it to something regal. We've all come to live and RESPECT Tracy SO much as she quietly does the jobs many men wouldn't tackle. Terry, your editing and filming is also elevating to new heights. We'll done all!!

When my health was good I was much the same as you but now I am too old and can't walk around to enjoy myself that way any more. So you bring me joy and fun seeing you making things happen. Bravo! See you on Sunday!!

    It is one of my least favourite jobs, messy and very dusty and makes your hands sore, but when it is finished it is something to be proud of. I also like to leave the bigger spaces between the stones, I love the way yours turned out, it's a real feature now xx

    Wow! The camerawork has improved a hundredfold since your first posts. It's nice to see your content is as engaging as its ever been, but it's now beautifully shot and presented too. Tracy, I'm so impressed you've tackled this project. It's a beautiful chimney, and adds so much character to the landing area upstairs. I'm so admiring of your family's efforts; thank you for sharing them.

    The stone looks so fantastic!👌
    I can't wait to see what Tony's been up to.🏗️Crack on!
    I look forward to Wednesday. What have those guys been up to? I'm hoping for a kitchen update. Tony and Tracy's kitchen turned out so beautifully and presumably on budget. The expectations for Ash and Terry's are high.🎰 If I recall correctly, the challenges are the odd space and little natural light coming in from a dormer window.🏠 Can you put a sink there or do you save it for the view while having your breakfast tea?☕I prefer sitting at the kitchen table and looking into the garden. I try not to spend too much time at the kitchen sink.

    How good is that, so pleased you had a change of mind and pointed the walls up. I wondered how just sealing it would have looked but you have still captured, so well, the the stone work. I think back some times to when you first appeared and got the impression you were not overly impressed with the daunting prospects that lay ahead, thank the lord, you stuck with it. You will be so pleased when the room is finished . Brilliant. Cheers
