thank you we always try to do things the correct way its so important to us as a family to build a car thats the best we can make and build houses the best we can build. thanks much more to come
Lots of progress being done. Glad to see all the updates and look forward to seeing the work on dad's house too.
thanks dad is going to be filming his house tour this week to be released shortly. What we can guarantee is that his house is so different it will be worth seeing.
Amazing. I watched all the renovation videos when they first came out and it was wonderful to get the review of all the work. I am looking forward to seeing the progress over the next few months and years on both properties.
thanks for your support videos coming on the house channel on wednesday 's
You guys are not work shy that's for sure! Back in the eighties we bought a fabulous longhouse farm and barns near Meusnes (quite close to Romorantin where the Matra factory was then.) Long story short we had to sell again before we even started the work. I miss that place to this day.
sorry for your loss stick with us and hopefully we can help you build new memories
Well done Oliver and all. Brilliant work and a joy to watch.
so glad you enjoyed it
It was good to see a quick recap of the earlier videos. I had forgotten the original condition before you stated to work on it. I'm looking forward to future updates. Thanks to you all.
Thanks Lawrence we forget also the original condition. The time lapse is good for us also as we sometimes loose sight of how far we have come
Wonderful good to see the progress 🦟🦟🦟
Thanks for supporting us on both our channels!
beau travail et très bon présentateur
merci beaucoup
I like the fact you show each stage but not in a quick motion. Is so annoying to have to sit through a video animated blur. Gosh, if you work hard, you get lucky! 😉
Thank you so much for your comment We try to work very hard every day. In truth its been a lot of work but we love it all very much
I am VERY interested in your off-grid setup. It seems to be EXACTLY the combination of systems I've been contemplating.
I do believe that some compromises, such as using concrete are justified by the long-term benefit that will outweigh the carbon penalty by remaining in place and useful for generations.
I also respect your reuse of materials you've removed from the building in other parts of the building.
thank you we are actually completely off grid we have two homes and a workshop we hope to inspire you and others. we repurpose everything we have throughout our builds and land . A tour of dad;s house coming shortly which will highlight repurposing to another level
Beaucoup de travail, monsieur! 😁👍
merci pour votre soutien
Wonderful progress guys. Great to see.
thanks so much there is much more to see
Really wonderful!
so happy you think so much more to come
WOW ! … Alle Achtung ! … Das ging aber schnell mit Ihrer Korrektur ! Ja, das Video hat mir sehr gefallen ! Ich interessiere mich für die Restaurierungen der französischen Landhäuser und Château !
Ja, ich möchte Ihnen vielmals für Ihren Beitrag danken, damit wir ihn korrigieren konnten. Ich freue mich, dass Ihnen die Restaurierung französischer Landhäuser gefällt. Wir lassen ein Bauernhaus und eine Scheune restaurieren. Bald machen wir einen Rundgang durch das kleine Bauernhaus. Danke noch einmal
Well done 👍 😊
Thanks 😊 so happy you commented good to know people appreciate our work

Bonjour notre famille au Maroc. j'espère que vous avez aimé la vidéo et que tout va bien. Tous nos câlins d’amour et nos meilleurs vœux. équipe de france
Wow that's some work compared to building a car !
Amazing hard graft !
You didn't say what region / town you are in ?
Whilst doing up the barn , are you living in an adjoining building ?
We are in the Limousin area, its been very hard work but very rewarding. Yes we are lucky to have a kind of lean to very small but two story building which we have made into our very tiny home whilst we build. thanks for your support.
Auf eurem Titelbild dieses Video auf RUclips ist die französische Flagge falsch dargestellt ! Sie muss " blau-weiß-rot " und nicht rot-weiß-blau darstellen !
Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar. Wir werden uns das so schnell wie möglich ansehen. Ich hoffe, dass Ihnen das Video gefallen hat, vielen Dank abermals

8:42 What is calabrase? Web search and Google Translate didn't help. 🤔🤷♂️
Calabrase is a strange cross between broccoli and cauliflower Glad you like this as we grow veg that others do not.ie tromboncino, salsify mamouth etc
Honestly I was captivated with you guys progress with the 🦟
But this is something else. Emotive, cathartic stuff for sure!
Thanks this comment means so much to us as we put everything into all we do, much more to come
