Why did you just plop a new cover over the leaky boards instead of actually finding where the rain is getting in and fixing that first? Isn't the water doing damage above the covering? 🤔
I know ive said it before, but if I had your place. I wouldnt leave. love the terrace upstairs and the view. this time of year its so green and lush. Whilst the UK is doom and gloom. grr
The drill got stuck because keyless chuck loosen when reversed, hence when Nick tried to reverse the drill, the chuck loosened and so the drill was left in the wood. A keyed chuck would hold in forward or reverse.
I love that the boys wait to have their feet cleaned before entering the van. So well trained. The winter in Spain, of how I miss it having been doing it before the pandemic for 10 years. I think i need Sarah to come and decorate our flat, it is so beautiful, well done.
Merry Christmas to the exPAWers! 🎄 The essence of this channel is Sarah, Nick, Charlie and Dizzee; all the other content - is what's happening with and around you guys, and where are you at. These viewers are LOVING the mixture of Vanlife, Travel, the 'Land', visiting Family and Village life. Keep up the good (hard) work, and we'll keep coming back to watch. Cheers and love to you and yours.
Great to see you back home and relaxed. Exciting times ahead! It would be amazing to grow your own avocados, my favourite fruits/vegetable! Have a lovely weekend.🌞
Your yukkas will love your new land. We planted lots in our garden in Portugal about 15 years ago and they’re huge now! All found beside a rubbish bin!
Hey Guys 👋 Glad you’re home safely and all was well. I have gone extra crazy with fairy lights this year as well…I can’t help it they make me happy 😃 ❤ Have a blessed week 🙏
Merry Christmas to a very sweet couple. I haven't been able to garden for a number of years due to growing older but, it was my passion most of my life. You will do very well with your land because you love it, and when you love your land it will love you back. It can feel your caring and hard work, and reward you in abundance. Your home is lovely, a dream home for sure! Your Christmas tree and lights are so homey. Hoping your Christmas is the best ever!
Oh man , it's so beyond grey here in the Blighty . Has been for days . Frost , snow , ice . Then 90mph winds . Then rain . Freezing fog . Now drizzle drizzle drizzle . Gloom . Beer and tapas .Yes please. ☺
Sorry to hear this.. We did have a massive downpour yesterday and a little leak in the house again (will be fixing the roof in the next few days😅) but thankfully the sunshine returned today and dries everything out.. Keep warm xx
Ah guys! We're here in Andalucia in our T5 campervan. Came from Ireland last month and planning to winter here. We SO wish we could link up with you guys.. been following you forever and we love you! (BTW.. we're your parents age group!) We have already visited some of the beautiful little villages and I keep saying to my husband "imagine if we happened to bump into Nick and Sarah" 😅 Happy Christmas to you both! ❤
You're so easy to watch guys. Love how green it is in Spain and the doggies look very contented. The Hornsea coffee set is my fave design by the way! Looking forward to finding out what your plans are for 2025.
Thanks for a lovely video. Jealous watching you under blue skies, it's been grey here in Yorkshire for days and today cold & drizzling. Merry Christmas 🌲🌲
Glad you got back to the house and all was OK. It must be a bit of a worry leaving it so long. Memories flooded back when I saw the green Hornsea pottery mugs. They must be from mid 60s. I can remember going to the factory and outlet in Hornsea East Yorkshire. It was quite the thing to have Hornsea pottery, so Bohemian! Have a good mini trip and Happy Christmas.
Just want to drop a quick message to say, our reolink atlas pt arrived this week, we love it, and thanks for the recommendation 💕 We got it to keep an eye on our villa in Spain when we aren’t there 👍💕 xxxx
So Happy to hear your home was fine after the horrific weather Spain had be having . 25 degrees lovely send it to other parts of Europe. We could do with some sunshine. Its been that Dull very Grey colder weather. Thats nice your taking a small relaxing trip for Christmas 😊 . Have a lovely weekend 🥰
I must be lucky every road I take mine I come from Spain to Portugal. I never seem to go through any border, a little wind the roads I never do motorways even in the UK. Great to see you once again love the little boys❤😊
Can't wait to watch you transform your land ❣️ Besides the tools for Christmas, please save up for a riding mower or brush hog (heavy duty mower able to cut through ALL the brush). Take care of each other ❣️❣️❣️
Hello again from Uncle Zip. Yes, I'm still here. but in Australia now. I will be a visitor only to Vietnam from now on after 21 years of living and working there. Cheers.
OMG the glimpse of the little red Renault 4! ❤ I had one (6 volt battery) as my first car as a student in 1975! Never broke down. Drove it miles for my away field hockey games.
Ow I used to have wire frame sunglasses until a bad tangled mess when I pushed them up on my head-now I have plastic framed ones as I can’t be bothered with the tangles. You’re back in your village and settling in for the holiday - Enjoy the familiar and plan for the new. CHEERS!
It's always nice to be home for Christmas, and I'm glad there were no weather related problems. Did I see you drinking out of Hornsea Pottery mugs, or do my eyes deceive me 🤔. Have a lovely trip away, and we'll see you next week.
False ceiling in poss damp area? Option could be to cover the gaps in the timbers with wood coverstrips and show the lot as bare tinber, maybe oiled to bring out the grain and colour. Any further damp incursion would then have little effect and it would breath and dry out. Could always fix the roof even....
Christmas hat and shorts, sounds like our Chrissie here in Oz. I don't know how I stood living in the UK, although it was a very very long time ago. I hope you have a great Christmas and have an amazing new year.
Its getting near Christmas and i noticed today the high number of Roma caravans gathering in several large groups down here near the Mediterranean and Spanish border. Just like every one at Christmas huge family gatherings. I was surprised how lovely and green your land inPortugal looked. And your happy faces when you got to your beautiful house in Spain, made me happy! XXX Jo in France 🇫🇷
Lovely video, don’t be apologetic for having super sunshine. I’m a coffee fan, and recently been buying retro cups and saucers, something nice about drinking from a cup whilst holding the saucer. ( I don’t have much going on in my life) Again great video. Thank you.
Sarah, you looked quite tipsy after that beer at the restaurant 😂😂 That little job done at the house will have you dancing on the ceiling 😂😂 after a few beers. See you next week 👍🐸
No, they can save ££'s by sticking to 'proper' roads. Even if they'd had a lift kit, they'd still be using more fuel and putting unnecessary wear and tear on it by being up and down the gears and on the brakes.
Hi Nick,Sarah and the doggies, the land is looking fabulous and you certainly have your work cut out but i think it will be a wonderful place to spend time in. I am glad your Spanish home was okay and the doggies seemed really happy to be home. Do you have an Amazon wish list? Anyway have a good week. xxxx
Okay. It was -34 here this morning, but I think you should enjoy a bit of a gloat. Why not! I can almost feel the sun on your skin lol. I love your life! (I like my life too, but I like yours better). I really enjoy watching you and I always feel a bit silly so it is catchy! Very pretty decorations!
Love : THE/OUR LAND. GREAT ACHIEVEMENT GUYS ❤ 🎉 Love Nicks beard 😊 🎉🎉 must have been emotional decorating for Christmas with the lose of your dear sister. Been there done that 😢. See you next week❤ nancy
So funny, but glad you made it to Spain. We end up on those types of roads all the time. LOL Like the beard, you should keep it. Sarah, are you letting your hair grow out? I think it would look nice straight. :) Have just ordered the beer for a Christmas gift. Worth a try. :)
I am looking forward to watching you transform the land! I've been having loads of fun and learning from watching @TheNewbys renovate their farm, also in Portugal. Sarah, Google maps got me like that once, too. I was driving from WA State to Mesa, AZ, and the shortest timed route turned out not to be 😂Lesson learned! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Merry Christmas! Thanks to Beer52 for sponsoring this video, to CLAIM YOU FREE CASE OF BEER go to; www.beer52.com/PAW cheers folks:)
Why did you just plop a new cover over the leaky boards instead of actually finding where the rain is getting in and fixing that first? Isn't the water doing damage above the covering? 🤔
How lovely to have the choice between the house, the land and Velton. You really do have it made. Have a wonderful Xmas.
I know ive said it before, but if I had your place. I wouldnt leave.
love the terrace upstairs and the view. this time of year its so green and lush.
Whilst the UK is doom and gloom. grr
Thanks so much, we do love our little place down here ❤
Sarah, do not run a power tool like a saw or drill with a loose scarf around your neck. It can get caught. Nice work though.
The drill got stuck because keyless chuck loosen when reversed, hence when Nick tried to reverse the drill, the chuck loosened and so the drill was left in the wood. A keyed chuck would hold in forward or reverse.
I love that the boys wait to have their feet cleaned before entering the van. So well trained. The winter in Spain, of how I miss it having been doing it before the pandemic for 10 years. I think i need Sarah to come and decorate our flat, it is so beautiful, well done.
They are very good, same routine with the dogs having their feet cleaned since pups, if we’re in the house or van! Thanks so much for watching..😁
The cups and saucers are Hornsea Pottery which chips easily. I live just outside Hornsea, and remember when the pottery was in its infancy.
Heirloom Trio Cup and Saucer. I preferred the Mugs designed by John Clappison
Yes!! And they do chip easily 😅.. We broke one already, we had 4! Probably not suitable for us in the van tbh!!
Great for using in a bouncy van then! 😃
All looks so cosy and pretty, have a good week xx
Thanks so much.. ❤
Merry Christmas to the exPAWers! 🎄

Must admit I do rather like your little Spanish bolt hole. It’s exactly what I would want to live in were I to be looking in Spain.
Love the video guys lol you don't hang about out again. The house looks lovely

You need a magnetic glasses holder. They hold you glasses securely on what ever top you are wearing.

What's beautiful views from your apartment
Christmas hat and shorts, sounds like our Chrissie here in Oz. I don't know how I stood living in the UK, although it was a very very long time ago. I hope you have a great Christmas and have an amazing new year.

Please show the viewers Rhondo . We loved it x
Sarah, you looked quite tipsy after that beer at the restaurant 😂😂
That little job done at the house will have you dancing on the ceiling 😂😂 after a few beers.
See you next week 👍🐸
Good to see you back to good old Spain. We have bought an apartment in Torrevieja. You are welcome to visit us!
Thanks guys.. Hope you’re enjoying the sunshine ☀️ xx
If you keep the stones from avocado's they are supposed to be quite easy to root ( never actually tried it UK is far too cold)
Happy Christmas guys
Only gotten as far as 02:30... Velten needs a lift kit and bigger wheels. Right. Carrying on...
No, they can save ££'s by sticking to 'proper' roads. Even if they'd had a lift kit, they'd still be using more fuel and putting unnecessary wear and tear on it by being up and down the gears and on the brakes.
Love the beard on you Nick looks good..Santa claus 😊
Hey guys👋🏻…see you all next week x♥️🎄🇬🇧
Great video..
Just love your outlook on life and the dogs make it for me .Wish I was 60yrs younger! Love to you all....Pat in S.Wales ( S.London boy really)

Hi Nick,Sarah and the doggies, the land is looking fabulous and you certainly have your work cut out but i think it will be a wonderful place to spend time in.
