Just found your channel, love watching all you're videos love florida been there so many times coming back in 2025 April to see our lovely friends, can I just say you're such a lovely couple and you've got a beautiful home ❤🇬🇧
I was so on edge when you were unpacking the vanity units, really hoping that there was no damage. I could feel your stress. Your patio furniture looks great
Thank you both for sharing this to show that RUclips world isn't always perfect. As stressful as it must have been, I'm sure it will all be worth it when the renovations are complete.
We love these home vlogs....what a week, i think its time for a break from all this work, so you can just relax and enjoy your home....patience of saints...❤😊😮🎉
Sad to see the frustration over the deliveries. I thought we had missed the first use of the pool but I guess not. I know the weather picks up soon and you will get the break you deserve
🥰 poor lady Maxine ! this service delivery of your vanity units is just pathetic !!!😡 On a much lighter note ! your patio furniture is sitting in position beautifully ♥️
I do think about the 5ft 150lb delivery guy who accepted a load with two 350lb vanities that were paid to be delivered inside a house. Just how thick can he be, by rejecting them we probably saved him ending up in hospital injured.
That's the drivers problem not the customer. When a customer has paid extra they entitled to what they have paid for. The driver needs to talk to his employers regarding the weight of parcels he has been asked to deliver especially if they exceed the weight
Hope you get everything sorted soon & the weather picks up so you can ( or already have!) get a dunk in the pool. Bathroom units looking good, glad I don’t have the job of getting them upstairs! 🥵😂
About 3 or4 years ago, I briefly worked for Yellow Freight. I was shocked at the way they squashed and piled stuff into the back of trailers. They often put heavy stuff onto fragile stuff. It was pretty shocking. I lasted 2 weeks and then quit. The company went bust not long after.
Poor Max… it’s so frustrating when you pay for delivery & you don’t get the manpower you paid for. She’s an absolute trooper though. The vanity’s are sooooooo nice & the outdoor furniture is lovely. You’re going to have a beautiful home when it’s all done. You’ll have to celebrate with a cocktail or 5 in the pool 🎉🍸🍹🥂🍾
@@ThemeParkBazza it's unbelievable they only sent one guy. I hope he's got good health insurance because my back hurts just thinking about it!!! I can't imagine how his back is!!
Hi guys, just keep swimming 🏊 as Nemo would say! It’s definitely been a run for you 😮 love the colour of the new patio furniture and I really loved the original rug you had out there, great colours 🩵💙🩵 How is your new pet, Sidney the spider 🕷️ 😅😅😅😅😅 OMG……. Get yourself more baileys!!!! What is wrong with these people……you have paid for a service, why can they not provide that 🥺😩☹️ You have to feel for their poor drivers aswell who just get sent out on their own with HUGE boxes etc 😢
@@ThemeParkBazza oh, well that changes things, I thought they just got put out by their company with whatever was on the truck! Looking forward to seeing the bathroom when it is altogether 😍
That’s the problem when things come assembled so much weight but I’m sure you can get Nick to come over and get it upstairs for you lol keep safe Andy and vonnie
Crossing my fingers it’s not damaged. Poor Max. That is very stressful. We are about to go thought the same thing…I’m starting to think maybe I shouldn’t use Home Depot.
Blimey, I`m aging fast just watching! What a palaver this has all been! Hopefully this will be over soon and you can soak in the pool and relax.I`d be a jibbering idiot by now if I was Maxine!
Can’t believe they would send one person with the package. If I was delivering that I would point blank refuse to put it in my van untill I had a second worker with me.
Will sealing the pool pavers change their color.,make them darker? Soon after installing my new sidewalk pavers Lowes delivered my kitchen appliances and backed their delivery truck onto my new sidewalk damaging a large section. They denied they had done it and tried to gaslight me which led to a big argument. After cursing them out and telling them to leave my property I made a claim with Lowes and they paid to have it repaired. My experiences with Home Depot and Lowes delivery has not been good either. You dodged a bullet with the vanities.
Happy ending 👍 looking forward to seeing everything placed in your new bathroom project 🤗🤗
Thank you , that’s coming up soon

Thank you so much
Great episode guys 👏
Thank you
I was so on edge when you were unpacking the vanity units, really hoping that there was no damage. I could feel your stress. Your patio furniture looks great
The good news is there was no major damage
And it looks really nice
Thank you both for sharing this to show that RUclips world isn't always perfect. As stressful as it must have been, I'm sure it will all be worth it when the renovations are complete.
Thank you for putting up with our moaning lol
We love these home vlogs....what a week, i think its time for a break from all this work, so you can just relax and enjoy your home....patience of saints...❤😊😮🎉
We factored in a quick weekend break away to de-stress as you will see in an upcoming vlog
@@ThemeParkBazza nice one...
Patio furniture looks wonderful as did the Baileys…….although it would be the bottle and a straw for myself to calm down. 😂
It had the desired effect
Everything looks fab. I loved that rug you had 🩵
Why, thank you!!
It's going to look lovely once it's done .
Thank you
Things are coming together. Took me 10 years to fully renovate my home, but now it’s done I can finally relax.
We think we have this year, and then we should be done. So complete in around 2 years
❤❤❤
Pool looks great. Pity about the State laws requiring the cage. Reminds me of a police station in Belfast.
Better than being bit with mosquitos
The spider 🕷 made me Laugh
It was huge !
New outdoor furniture looks nice 😊
Thanks Wendy we are enjoying them
Love the patio furniture! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, we do also
The patio looks so nice love the furniture.
We do spend a lot of time out there now
Sad to see the frustration over the deliveries. I thought we had missed the first use of the pool but I guess not. I know the weather picks up soon and you will get the break you deserve
That is coming in next Fridays vlog
Hello friend good afternoon my friend 👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤
Hello 👋
Oh my word. I was so stressed for you watching this that i had to have a Baileys too!
The Baileys definetly helped
Those units really are beautiful tho❤
Yes we do like them , heavy as they are
🥰 poor lady Maxine ! this service delivery of your vanity units is just pathetic !!!😡 On a much lighter note ! your patio furniture is sitting in position beautifully ♥️
Yes it is patheric
Have you ever thought about that 1 guy who has to deliver that heavy package for his job ? dont blame him he just doing what he told too
They are overworked...the same happens here...
I do think about the 5ft 150lb delivery guy who accepted a load with two 350lb vanities that were paid to be delivered inside a house. Just how thick can he be, by rejecting them we probably saved him ending up in hospital injured.
Oh I so feel for you..youve had a time of it . 😢
Maxine specifically requested 2 delivery people. Completely the third party delivery firms fault
That's the drivers problem not the customer. When a customer has paid extra they entitled to what they have paid for. The driver needs to talk to his employers regarding the weight of parcels he has been asked to deliver especially if they exceed the weight
Hope you get everything sorted soon & the weather picks up so you can ( or already have!) get a dunk in the pool. Bathroom units looking good, glad I don’t have the job of getting them upstairs! 🥵😂
Next week we try the pool for the first time and we will explain how we got them upstairs in the following vlog
@@ThemeParkBazza glad to hear that they actually got upstairs 😮. The house looks amazing, living the dream guy’s 👍🏻
I know you were waiting for the worst, but glad the vanities are ok. At least I hope they still are. They look very nice. Freight companies. Ugh!
It was a bit of a struggle to get them upstairs, as you will hear in a future vlog
No wonder you needed a drink Maxine by the next weekend for my birthday.xxxx
Oh yes that was a good night out
It certainly was a fun night with a lot of drink consumed
About 3 or4 years ago, I briefly worked for Yellow Freight. I was shocked at the way they squashed and piled stuff into the back of trailers. They often put heavy stuff onto fragile stuff. It was pretty shocking. I lasted 2 weeks and then quit. The company went bust not long after.
It seems to be the way with these companies, looks like you made a good decision
Poor Max… it’s so frustrating when you pay for delivery & you don’t get the manpower you paid for. She’s an absolute trooper though. The vanity’s are sooooooo nice & the outdoor furniture is lovely. You’re going to have a beautiful home when it’s all done. You’ll have to celebrate with a cocktail or 5 in the pool 🎉🍸🍹🥂🍾
It's also the fact she rang the dispatcher twice, and they assured us they would send two people
@@ThemeParkBazza it's unbelievable they only sent one guy. I hope he's got good health insurance because my back hurts just thinking about it!!! I can't imagine how his back is!!

Thank you for your kind words . The drivers can reject the load or arrange help to offload, so there is not much sympathy, to be honest
@@ThemeParkBazza oh, well that changes things, I thought they just got put out by their company with whatever was on the truck! Looking forward to seeing the bathroom when it is altogether 😍
Love a bit of mad max and Bazza 1980 British tv references. Fork handles!!
All the 80s all the time :-)
Love the furniture and the vanity units ❤ omg no wonder poor maxine went mad cos that delivery company r ridiculous 🙄
Yes , it was a bit of a stressful week
@@ThemeParkBazza have had one of those myself 🥺 22 days to Orlando so roll on and I hope that weather has improved 🤣
Another fab vlog shame things never are simple 😅
Tell me about it lol
What type of blue light do you have behind the TV?
Some LED strip lights we got off Amazon
Seems like you have the patience of saints particularly you Max. X
What else can you do, apart from keep moving forwards :-)
That’s the problem when things come assembled so much weight but I’m sure you can get Nick to come over and get it upstairs for you lol keep safe Andy and vonnie
Oh we found a way, as you will see soon
I was stressed for you Maxine 😮 looking good though 😊
It was a stressy day
Crossing my fingers it’s not damaged. Poor Max. That is very stressful. We are about to go thought the same thing…I’m starting to think maybe I shouldn’t use Home Depot.
Looking at the comments above it seems Lowes are the same
Blimey, I`m aging fast just watching! What a palaver this has all been! Hopefully this will be over soon and you can soak in the pool and relax.I`d be a jibbering idiot by now if I was Maxine!
It was a stressful week indeeed
How on earth are you going to get those upstairs?
Anhhh, it was done and we explain how in a future vlog
I would neverrrrrrrrrrrr everrrrr purchase any items from garbageeeeeeeee homedepot
So you would just use lowesssssssss ?
Can’t believe they would send one person with the package. If I was delivering that I would point blank refuse to put it in my van untill I had a second worker with me.
Especially as we rang the dispatcher twice to tell them to send two people
Can you hang planters from the pool cage?
Not without drilling into the frame which we really don’t want to do
Will sealing the pool pavers change their color.,make them darker? Soon after installing my new sidewalk pavers Lowes delivered my kitchen appliances and backed their delivery truck onto my new sidewalk damaging a large section. They denied they had done it and tried to gaslight me which led to a big argument. After cursing them out and telling them to leave my property I made a claim with Lowes and they paid to have it repaired. My experiences with Home Depot and Lowes delivery has not been good either. You dodged a bullet with the vanities.
It may make then a but darker but better than having slipped alge grow with the humidity
Bazza hows about RGB lights that you can control wirh your phone or pc have a bit of a disco lol
Oh you will see them in full action next week
@@ThemeParkBazza if you put them around the inside perimeter of the pool cage
Fun and games nothing is ever straight forward. By the way what sort of job do you do ?
It was fun and games, we keep our careers separate from our vlogging life
@@ThemeParkBazza Ok no problem
