Love your videos and find you and Sinead inspiring and often hilarious. When you point to the corner of screen and say you will find a link up here, there isn't a link thumbnail to click on (I don't think in any of your videos), I watch on kindle and firestick. Anyway looking forward to more incredible videos.👏👏
That was a very productive month!! Well done, you. I'm glad you're mixing work and fun. September looks like a great month. I love listening to your very informative chats. Have a great week Kirsty!!
Your window dream sounds more like a ‘chain gang nightmare’ 😂. Neverending hammering stones. September sounds like a nice mix of work. Enjoy your time in Scotland with your family.
Well done 🎉 Get some see- through plastic to cover the hole from the outside in the meantime, maybe; the table- cover type can be very sturdy. It could be removable eg. on a batton that hooks on. Getting used to the space with daylight will give more ideas of how you want the space ( methinks ... maybe i just want to see the space quicker 😊).
I would love it if you made a playlist of how-to-do-it, with mixing lime, pointing, how to make the clay mix you've used, the splitting of rocks, and more. I recommend many Portugal channels to your channel because you are awesome and do so many cool things. I live in the US and I'm old and this is my pastime watching Portugal RUclips videos! Yours is one of my favorites!
Nice idea though I’ve always said I’m not a ‘how to’ channel as that’s too much pressure and I’m not a professional. But maybe in the future! Thanks, I’m glad you enjoy th se portugal channels!
I've watched you from almost the start and I am totally enjoying this year as you have achieved so much. I'm particularly looking forward to you 3 women working together on your adjoining properties. Sisters are doing it for their selves
For more color to your logo… I think the square of the logo should be the color of your pool paint with a black outline ..the flowers shades of yellow for your sunflowers 🌻and Tracey the Trumpet🌼
Lovely presentation Kirsty. Well done on August check list. Have a great break and you never know where you will get inspiration and new ideas from when in Scotland. Say hi to Mum and Dad from Australia.
a few things I have to say or ask: 1) Please include more of your sense of humour, you really made me laugh when you said you dream of windows !! 2) Shanaid. I dont understand why she built a yurt when she have a lovely stone house on her property. Where you store oyr/her wood. 3) I assume Shanaid will be feeding your cats. Is that enough? will they wonder off looking for you? feel abandoned? 4)How do I know that you have responded to my questions? long ago it would be posted and I just had to click on it, but in these last months I get nothing and dont even know where to go to find my original question that you have answered. I wish you a most enjoyable family trip to scotland sounds wonderful. 5) I love maps so please make two or three. One of your property and the immediate surroundings and two go a little further showing the town or towns close to you, river beaches, etc.
Thanks for the feedback! For your questions, Sinead wants to extend the size of the building so is waiting for building approval which is a long process. She’ll feed and cuddle my cats and they’ll be ok. She’s so close to me and they already go down to her for visits, plus she’s always at mine for tools and it’s where the fridge is. I’m sorry, I’m not sure about RUclips stuff… I also find it a bit difficult to find answers to questions. There’s a bell thing at the top right of the screen… maybe that? Or search for your user name? Sorry I can’t help there!Thanks!
You got a lot done considering the brutal heat. I've been meaning to say for ever, when you point to the corner of the screen to say "watch this video" I am not getting those in-screen links. It may just be my settings, but I thought I'd mention it in case there's more to it than that.
Hi kristy I really enjoy your videos 👏👏 I think it might be a good idea to visit your window shop and check his inventories before you make your final decision on the size and shape of your window🤷🏻♀️
I did already and he can make a window to any size so that gives me some flexibility with. Along the hole. Often there’s a ruin that already has a window hole so this is common here, even if it doesn’t seem logical.
Hi Kirsty.I Pray you get some more Work done before you Leave with your Dad,Mom to Scotland but if you don't just 's go have fun with your Dad,Mom on your Trip.And i know Sinead will Wacth your 🐈🐈's when you go on your Trip she's a great Person Like you.Please say hello to your Dad,Mom for me.Have a Safe Trip.I will Pray for all of you and injoy your family.❤. Raquel.And Please say hello to Sinead for me and to her family and for them to have a Safe Trip back home all of them.And i thank them for helping you.❤. Raquel.
@@PortugalfromScratch Yes you will have a Wonderful Trip because you will be with your Dad,Mom and family having fun and injoy yourself.Be Safe always.❤️. Raquel.
The pools look great. I think that a map of the valley would be terrific. I am always trying to visualize the area. I like the shed design. I always thought that it was for storage purposes, always useful. I also love the logo and as someone else has said, it would be great on a piece of clothing. The window will be amazing. It’s great that your family is coming.
Dear Kirsty your logo is perfect, but the background is the same shape as your pool, so I think the background colour should represent that, maybe Turquoise blue or turquoise green or a lighter shade, whatever you like. Then just black outline of the snail, heart and the writing just outlined in black.how you have it already. I loved the video showing your land and road. I also loved the pool video, you did a lot of work making the lovely pool and pool area.
Once you get the window done, it would be nice to finish the front by continuing with the pointing on front of house. It will look so much better and freshen it all up. Oh and listen to your Mum about Tracy!
Great video! Love all the progress you’ve made. I am super excited about the window! 😊I would love that see some pics of Scotland if possible ❤️take care!
Logo is awesome- how about replacing the outer fill in black color to a blue color, like the door/ blue skies. Making the snail yellow like the sun, and it’s shell light brown like the stones on the house.
I think it’s a good idea to ask your subscribers to add at the end of their comment their Country Flag!! It would be great in the future to have a poster map showing the Countries that your followers are from!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Kristy, on the logo. How about a black ( Mikey) body of snail, orange (Larry) shell with door color blue in some of the shapes on the shell? I LOVE seeing the progress!
Ah I forstered Mikey, the black cat, but then his original mum stayed in the UK so I kept him. Then Larry was hanging around and Mikey didn’t seem to mind him being around so I asked around to see if he belonged to anyone and then figure he didn’t so I got him chipped and neutered adopted him. So I wasn’t ready for cats but they had other ideas! 😆
@@PortugalfromScratch that's the typical story of how the Cat Distribution System works :) I think they bring a lot of joy into your life and certainly in your videos :)
Hi Kirsty wow a lot more done in August than expected but sensibly from the sounds of it 😊 Glad you got the Patreon sorted hopefully a fair few will sign up. I did try when you first mentioned it but it wasn't available then but it is now 😂😂 I like the way you do things it's similar to how I would if I was able 😁😁
Thanks so much for your extra Patreon support! It’s much appreciated! Ya August seemed slow and lazy but turned out to be very productive. The heat is gone now so I’m hoping to get a good chunk done on the window this week. 😀
I would love to see a map of your area and where the village is. I know Sandbags land is very nearby, but I'm not really clear on where. I would love to see that too. Have any of Sinead's family members taken the e-bikes out to explore the area, or have they been too busy helping her with projects down on her land?
Well done! I need to have a nap now! Enjoy your Scotland trip! Will you visit any other RUclips people from Scotland? Kinging It, Hoof GP.... Hugs from 🇨🇦
You could do with a drone for some aerial footage. I know its not essential but it would create a wonderful overview of your property and surrounding land.
Hmm I'm not sure I know how, either! Haha If you go here - www.amazon.de/hz/wishlist/ls/1P5SC8PE8ZSN4?ref_=wl_share - you should see a list of items and be able to buy them from there? But it's Amazon Germany so I'm not sure if that complicates things or not. But even if we can't work it out... thanks for the thought!

Can’t wait to see you. Could you please weed around Tracy trumpet. It makes your house so much nicer with the weeding done. ❤ mom
😂😂
Yep!
🤣🤣🤣
Love the new channel logo & the meaning behind it…just perfect!
Thanks so much!
Life by living built some great shutters from SCRATCH and they look great,did a good video building them, may be helpful.
I’ll check that out for sure, thanks!
you did a lot of work despite the heat. Well done👏
Thanks!
You work so hard! Your place is looking great!
Thanks!
I love your logo. I love your pointing technique. Your place is really developing.
Thank you! Slow but steady!
I always enjoy the progress updates. Looking forward to the window completion.
Glad to hear that!
Have a fabulous September 🎉
Thank you!
I think the way you work is perfect!! Doing what works for you is the best way!! I love to see different projects going!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Glad to hear that! It’s not for everyone but it works for me! 😀
Much done Kirsty in the month of August... well done 👍❤
Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! In the last video I actually forgot! But also good to know about what may be happening on Kindle and Firestick.
Very productive considering the heat! 😊
Ya I was surprised!
It's amazing what actually gets done when you're busy doing stuff. have a great trip. Thanks for having me over.🇨🇦
Things definitely feel busy at the moment! I’m not sure how productive I’m being but I’m getting there slowly!
Loving logo 🐌❤
Thanks!
Great job mate!!!!
Thank you!

Ya it’ll be tough work but worth it, I think!

Getting used to the space with daylight will give more ideas of how you want the space ( methinks ... maybe i just want to see the space quicker 😊).

It was a busy month for sure for being so hot. Cooler days ahead.
It definitely was and the weather has finally turned! 😀
Kudos. Energetic achiever is a good description of you.
Haha, thanks but let me get this thing finished first. 😁
I’m stoked to see how your window comes out. ❤
Me too! 😀
Love the Logo!! Very smart to make your working space outside with shade clothes & water proof tarps!! Looking AMAZING!! 😘🥰😍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks so much!! 😀
I've watched you from almost the start and I am totally enjoying this year as you have achieved so much. I'm particularly looking forward to you 3 women working together on your adjoining properties. Sisters are doing it for their selves
Yep! Plus I have another Portuguese friend next door who's here part-time who doesn't appear in the videos much so there are four of us here.
Enjoy your trip
Thanks!
For more color to your logo… I think the square of the logo should be the color of your pool paint with a black outline ..the flowers shades of yellow for your sunflowers 🌻and Tracey the Trumpet🌼
Good ideas, thanks! I need to set aside some time for experiments. 😀
I'm so impressed with your work on the place. Looking forward to the tool shed and window. You did a terrific job on the pool n deck. Keep at it!👍😊💗🇨🇦
Thanks so much! The window is slow but very much underway!

I heard said that the plan for the stone building on Sinead's land is as a good workspace (for building/craft), and I think part storage shed.
It’s probably quicker for Sinead to move on to her land by erecting a yurt
Exactly!
It’ll be a house eventually, see above. 🙂
Thanks for the feedback! For your questions, Sinead wants to extend the size of the building so is waiting for building approval which is a long process.

The logo snail needs a hat with glasses to finish it.
Haha ya maybe!
I’m glad you have a side gig to make you $$$.🎉
Me too! 😁

Kristy, on the logo. How about a black ( Mikey) body of snail, orange (Larry) shell with door color blue in some of the shapes on the shell?
I LOVE seeing the progress!
That could work! I need to find some time to experiment. 😁
I've always wondered how you got the kitties :)
Ah I forstered Mikey, the black cat, but then his original mum stayed in the UK so I kept him. Then Larry was hanging around and Mikey didn’t seem to mind him being around so I asked around to see if he belonged to anyone and then figure he didn’t so I got him chipped and neutered adopted him.

Honestly, I wrote Sancha. I swear autocorrect is getting worse and worse.
Sandbags! Haha, I love it!
I just noticed…what happened to the strands of beads that you had at your door. Wasn’t it to deter flies? I thought it was pretty cool.
Yep and they’re great but the flies haven’t been a problem in a long time so it can come down now.

It certainly would be.
There’s a wee bit of history between me and Kirsty about this.
Hola
Hi!
You're going to put a ridge line vent into the shed roof, right? Sorry if you have covered the details of the shed in another video.
I’m not sure what that is but it won’t have a ridge, it’ll be a shed roof. So maybe?
@@PortugalfromScratch A covered screen vent, along the line of the top of the shed roof, would allow the hottest air to escape.
I don’t know how to buy something on Amazon and send it to you. Can you help me with this?
Hmm I'm not sure I know how, either! Haha If you go here - www.amazon.de/hz/wishlist/ls/1P5SC8PE8ZSN4?ref_=wl_share - you should see a list of items and be able to buy them from there?
