The parlour was the room where my great grandparents used to entertain the suitors looking to marry their children. My great Auntie Bessie was the youngest of their 13 children, and said that by the time it was her turn to bring home a prospective husband to be grilled by her parents in the parlour, the good sofa was pretty much worn out.
I honestly wish my ancesters had found some way to stay in Ireland, sadly the potato famine forced them here to Australia, I absolutely love everything about Ireland its in my blood. ......anyway......i think you two are the best!!
Yay for electricity, cabinet doors are beautiful, and the white pointing on the rock wall looks amazing!! Well done guys!! Also Clare, I hope your bees handle the winter weather. 💚
That wall looks brilliant - Thank God you like pointing lol! You're very brave charging into work like that when it's supporting the upstairs floor - Fair play to you!
I noticed the lights were on seconds before your written comment appeared. I thought there's NO WAY Rob could have the big switch on and leave it pass unremarked lol!
Seeing Runi laying by the fireplace makes me jealous. As we are well into the Fall season, I’m looking forward to watching Christmas movies in my Decorated living room. All I’m missing is a fireplace to toast nearby. Can’t wait to see the room Claire is working on now and the kitchen finished. 🇨🇦❤️🥰
Christmas decoration ordered - What a great idea! The cupboards are looking grand, and I can't wait to see the end finish chosen for the timber!I It must be nicer to have either stand alone or smaller more contained projects like the parlour to focus on rather than the much larger scale (area-wise) stuff you've finally broken the back on.
Thrilled with the kitchen, Rob did a fabulous job! And yes you are right Phelim it is nice to focus on smaller projects, although quite often it means we work alone, no partner to have the banter 😜
Loving the xmas baubles!, they look great - fantastic idea. Clare what ratio mix do you use for your mortar ? Funny you mention having trades on site taking up time. You assume you would be able to get more done than normal, but in reality on these types of jobs, they always need looking after, decisions to be made, tea to be brewed - all takes time!.
I remember finding a black shiny spider in my hall way, at first i thought it was a toy spider, but when it moved, it freaked me out as it was a spider ive never seen before, i got the broom hoping it would climb onto it so i could put out side, but when i got outside the spider had gone, to this day ive not seen another one like it, made me think it could of been some one exotic pet
Kitchen lookin grand , love the pointing in the parlour . We don't really get excited for Christmas here in Ukraine...the ruskies like to throw extra missiles and drones at us at that time
With everything coming together plz put tile ur floors they look bad. I dont mean to seem mean but look at the videos where he is putting the doors on the cabinets they look bad..😊
It’s a renovation project, we are planning ours and the floors are one of the last bits on the list. Why put a floor down and cover it in mess ,do it last.
The floors were an experiment and without a doubt some areas of the house look better than others. It is not a priority at the moment and has cost us nothing but our own labour. Over time we will decide if this is how we want it to look or not.🙂

What a great story! I must tell that to our kids, to be sure that happened in this house as there was a very large family living here previously 🙂
I honestly wish my ancesters had found some way to stay in Ireland, sadly the potato famine forced them here to Australia, I absolutely love everything about Ireland its in my blood. ......anyway......i think you two are the best!!
They were sad times, but a such a huge part of our history and culture as a country 😊
Yay for electricity, cabinet doors are beautiful, and the white pointing on the rock wall looks amazing!! Well done guys!! Also Clare, I hope your bees handle the winter weather. 💚
I hope so too 🤞🤞
Dog has right idea. 😊😊
Don't I know ☺️
Fresh pointing🎉. Doors🎉. Busy Bees🎉. Electrics 🎉. Christmas decorations 🕷️🎄
Oh yes all gearing up for Christmas and snuggling down for the Winter x
The whole video was fantastic! The cabinets look great! Bees grand!! The Christmas ornaments are terrific! THEY WOULD MAKE GREAT COASTERS TOO!!!
Thank you Kelly, your comment means such a lot x
Doors looking fab!😊
Thankyou 🙂
There was one of those giant spiders on the other side of the fireplace when you were removing the plaster. It scared me just seeing it. 😂
Someone else mentioned this and I didn't realize so had to go back and replay 🤣
That wall looks brilliant - Thank God you like pointing lol!
You're very brave charging into work like that when it's supporting the upstairs floor - Fair play to you!
Someone had to sort it 💪
I noticed the lights were on seconds before your written comment appeared.

Well spotted 😜
I saw the ginormous black spider in the last video. No need to search any out. No need at all. 😂 You’re a brave woman that one would have made me run!
I'll try and root one out to show you for the next video 😜
@@WestCorkWanderNo thanks 😫

Now there's an idea, to toast on the fire, we are not used to having a fireplace, so it's quite the novelty 😁
Looking good really shaping up ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
It looks great- well done! ❤
Thank you! 😊
Great energy you two. Just think of the cosy Christmas you will all have x
That's the plan! Can't wait for Christmas 🎄
Nice video! Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!🙂

Clare what ratio mix do you use for your mortar ?
Funny you mention having trades on site taking up time. You assume you would be able to get more done than normal, but in reality on these types of jobs, they always need looking after, decisions to be made, tea to be brewed - all takes time!.
Thanks we are a bit homemade here, bit like this whole project really 😜
5 white sand, 1 white cement, 1 lime 😊
Greetings from Oklahoma USA
Hello there! 🤗
I remember finding a black shiny spider in my hall way, at first i thought it was a toy spider, but when it moved, it freaked me out as it was a spider ive never seen before, i got the broom hoping it would climb onto it so i could put out side, but when i got outside the spider had gone, to this day ive not seen another one like it, made me think it could of been some one exotic pet
Haha this made us laugh 🤣
What are you doing for Christmas ? Are you having a party to celebrate all your hard work ?
oh gosh, haven't thought that far yet!! I except our treat will be sleep :)
Yeah for lights, does this mean you can use the oven and the shower at the same time now?
Very practical question, but yes finally the shower and oven can be used safely together 🤗
❤❤❤
😁
I need a coffee , back in a mo , can you hold those thoughts and wait for a few pleeeeeeease ?
No problem 😁
Delighted you have electricity. Are you all able to have hot showers now?😊😊😊
Hot showers and oven at the same time! It's the little things 🤣
@ it is indeed.
👍👍
😁
The spider sounds like a false widow it’s bite is like a wasp sting and will be sore for about 24 hours. So not what you would want but not dangerous
Could be! I better watch where I stick my hands 🙈
Grant job lads but why in the name of G did u not put the upper units to the ceiling just asking that small space gathers more than dust 😊
Don't worry we will have a finishing piece which reaches the ceiling, due to be done this weekend I'm being told 😊
hopefully dem monster spiders havnt fled across the boundary🕷
I have just located them! Hanging out in the old consumer unit🙈
Kitchen lookin grand , love the pointing in the parlour . We don't really get excited for Christmas here in Ukraine...the ruskies like to throw extra missiles and drones at us at that time
I’m so sorry sending prayers your way!
Gosh John take care, will you be there for Christmas?
With everything coming together plz put tile ur floors they look bad.
I dont mean to seem mean but look at the videos where he is putting the doors on the cabinets they look bad..😊
