Over here in Canada and the U.S. we wear a snug belt over our wellies. This helps prevent them from filling with water and sinking us if we fall into the water. 😮
I think the green adds warmth, blue is generally a cold colour. I looked at light reflecting colours when painting my north facing kitchen in a light sage green. The new poster is ace x
There's something so very lovely about having seasonal changes and the ebb and flow of the tide drive what needs to be done. It's not an artificial deadline - unlike month-end which drives the accounting work I do.
Great to meet you last week Willie and later Richard! A pleasure bumping into you both on Skye, thank you for stopping and having a wee chat with us. Of course before leaving Skye we popped to Cafe Cùil and bought a couple of Sarah’s amazing prints. Keep up the great work guys 😊 Happy Birthday Willie, hope you had a lovely relaxed day 🎉
I like Kinloch Forest as it has a slightly warmer tone. When winter is long the blues can affect your mood. The warmer tones will be more soothing and uplifting to your mood in winters months. It also looks more agricultural if that makes sense....with the whole grow your own food motif.....just my two cents.
First, the bloopers were a hoot, and Nori eating the barnacles was so funny!! The editing of your 2024 boating season montage was really well done. I love how much you love the people, animals, places and things in your life on the Isle of Skye! Thank you for sharing with us!❤️
Just subscribed, I'm a 73 year old retired health care professional from Lancashire the original home of Sea Hog Boats. I have always had great admiration for those who can draw or play musical instruments. I can't do neither but I can fish and was fortunate to own a new Sea Hog Hunter in the early 90s. I love nature and the outdoors so your brilliant channel ticks all the boxes, it wouldn't surprise me to see it grow to become a 100k channel. looking forward to more fishing adventures in 2025 and always happy to offer tips. Dont forget the trailer maintenance and especially the bearings, always keep a spare handy packed in grease. I once had to leave my boat and trailer on the hard shoulder of the M62 to go and find a bearing supplier. Changing an offside trailer wheel bearing on the busy M62 is not something i would ever repeat. Wishing you both every success, a pleasure to watch the result of your hard work and talent.
Kinlock Forest. Now you need a Green Man in your home. It will reflect your love of nature. I know you could sketch one Sarah and I believe it will bless you home.
If it was my cottage I’d paint the door frames and wall panelling (maybe white?) then you can go a bit darker on the walls….i know it’s more work but it would really lighten the kitchen 👍
I think that McLeod’s Maidens matches the two background colours of the poster, (whereas the first darker green did not), and I think there’s enough green in it that it won’t be cold and depressing in winter. We’re big fans of natural wood, so not keen on the “paint the woodwork idea.” In the end you have to live with it so choose what you love. Great images in the water today!
Glad Betty is in for the winter so there is no stress for a storm. I think either of the blues work well with the poster and that the poster is perfect for the Skye Life Cottage. Thanks, have a great week.
😂it’s at an arty angle Willie & the designasaur getting up close & personal Sarah 😝 ahhh! Betty… bless her wee rudder! a fine season was had considering the pants summer we had, you guys did well! 🌅 rest well beloved ‘Betty’, until next spring ⛵️x
I am with Willie. Over a long cloudy winter, you are going to appreciate a bright kitchen. I love a yellow kitchen for the mood lifting lightness in the dark winter. That poster is great!
I noticed "Dino" is riding aboard Sarah's necklace. How funny.... Beautiful scenery bringing in the boat and now I remember why we don't have a boat anymore.
Darker blue cupboards are all the rage. Refreshing the walls with a touch of light color from your color choices from your lovely poster would be gorgeous. Love this weeks video. Love seafood ❤ the pups are super adorable 😍
I would agree keep it light. If you keep your cupboards the light cream/ white colour that will give you the light and you could then go for a darker colour to the walls. The green doesn’t quite match the poster colours but as you have the poster you could go along to the paint 🎨 shop again. Good luck. You have winter months to hunker down and enjoy your kitchen project all in readiness for spring season and planting out. Enjoy xx😀🇬🇧
The puzzle you when finished in picture frame and have on the wall 😢😢that what we do frame glue in place all put up on wal as pictures ❤❤❤❤ I love everyone of them
Hi Sarah & Willie, wow! You lucky people, fantastic scenery, fantastic lifestyle. I think l agree with Willie, your winter light is a lot darker. I don’t think you need a dark kitchen. You’re the artist Sarah think outside the box 😊.
MacLeod's Maidens or Kinloch Forest work well with the poster, as well as with the existing wood surfaces in the kitchen. Beautiful day to drydock Betty. Another wonderful video. Cheers to you all from Ontario Canada 🫶🇨🇦
We like the deep mythical blue green of Milovaig Storm! 😁 Also - Willie piloting, Sarah with the grappling hook coming in with the sun setting behind - was really a great shot.
I love the McLeod’s maidens colour. I think the poster really pops against it, and it’s a lovely colour, but it is your home, and I’m sure that any one you choose will be stunning.
I loved the boating season montage, though I have to say what amused me most about it was how much of it was actually you guys walking around on land/at the beach. The true spirit of boating season right there! I'm with Willie on the wall colour question - go with something light, so your kitchen doesn't become too dark if it doesn't get a lot of natural light anyway. Thank you for being a spot of fun and joy in these days.
The boat is fantastic for your recreation and to supplement your food supply and it's great to see you both taking care of it , so well done both of you 👏👏👍
Hello Sarah and Willie, Sarah I think the paint color blue tone with a touch of green. Would look good in your kitchen. Good team work on bringing in the fishing pods. And working together to get the boat back into the driveway. Looking forward to your next video. I so enjoy watching them on Sunday evenings.
Quite a project - getting the boat out of the sea. Enjoyed this video. And I like the light blue for your kitchen walls. Thanks for this video. Have a great week.
For me, green is the best colour, guys! I like the war posters, too. I have always fancied getting one of those iron advertisement holdings for soap, mustard powder, Bovril, etc. They are so cool but costly! Enjoying the decorating. It is definitely a cold day job, right enough! :)
Loved this video today....all the boat stuff was fascinating and so many beautiful shots and insights into what boating and fishing is like where you are. I prefer the darker teal colour because it brings out the warmth in all the woodwork and gives a glow to the room. The more yellowy green just makes the room look dull and drab and it doesn't complement your poster.... 😊
Hello from Canada. Consider a nice light green for your kitchen, it is cheerfull and easy on the eyes and brings the outside indoors, very useful in the winter months to keep your spirits up. Thank you for your wonderful video and music to complement it .
Brilliant video...lighter on the walls and darker on the kitchen cupboards or darker below and lighter above as the tan woodwork is not my choice but do what makes you happy. Love colour in a home as you definitely see the owners personality big hugs ❤
I am terrible about picking out colors for walls and cabinets so I am leaving it up to you :) I love the poster you chose, it fits your lifestyle. Wonderful sunset!
At our old house, we painted our kitchen cabinets the green color & at our current house, our kitchen tile is the blue color - you can’t go wrong with either color 😅 Loved the boat montage! 🦀🦞
Hi guys 😢😢😢 sad Betty is tucked away for the winter,well done though both of u worked like a dream. Glad u managed to get some crabs and lobsters for ure last trip.so funny nori biting those barnickles of totally ignoring u willie.loved where the dinosaur was 😂 sarah.❤xx🤙
I like the idea of painting the woodwork a colour and using a warm white for the walls. I know painting natural wood is controversial, but it is traditional and would have been painted in olden times. I like all the colours but prefer the green for its warmth.
I like the second color, Milovaig Storm but the last color looks nice too. No on the white. What a task in bringing in the boat for the winter. A great time being out on the boat during the summer time. Beautiful sunset to view out there. Great video guys.
Have you considered painting the tongue and grove, using a colour of your choice from your tester pots, then to brighten up your kitchen walls using bright white?

Sarah, Willie, Jack & Nori x
Over here in Canada and the U.S. we wear a snug belt over our wellies. This helps prevent them from filling with water and sinking us if we fall into the water. 😮
TO FUNNY I JUST NOTICED THE DINOSAUR ON SARAH'S NECKLACE.😅 ""DID ANYONE ELSE NOTICE IT?"". GREAT VIDEO
I did! 😂🤣
@@AnnSarasvati Yes I did. First noticed Dino wasn't on his usual lurking spot - the picture. Then spotted him as Sarah's fashion accessory. 😂
I think the green adds warmth, blue is generally a cold colour. I looked at light reflecting colours when painting my north facing kitchen in a light sage green. The new poster is ace x
Green is also known as a cool colour
I think you should paint the wooden panelling in one of your colours and keep the walls light , kind regards
I love the darker blue with that poster, but I agree with Willie that lighter blue Macleod’s Maiden is the winner.
There's something so very lovely about having seasonal changes and the ebb and flow of the tide drive what needs to be done. It's not an artificial deadline - unlike month-end which drives the accounting work I do.

The first colour, the green one. It’s cheerful and gives your kitchen that homely feeling and warm.
Totally agree, the first one!
Absafrigginglutly the lighter green is better 😎
👍
The first one 👌🏽love the green ❤
The first one
My vote is for Kinloch Forest!
I like Kinloch Forest as it has a slightly warmer tone. When winter is long the blues can affect your mood. The warmer tones will be more soothing and uplifting to your mood in winters months. It also looks more agricultural if that makes sense....with the whole grow your own food motif.....just my two cents.
Milovaig storm looks striking and I would paint the woodwork panelling this will make the kitchen more contemporary and your own x
Definitely the greener one. Looks much warner and richer. Blue doesn't necessarily make a room lighter, just colder feeling
Love the green 💚
Betty did you proud this season and I hope Willie had a great birthday, big love to you all x

I agree to choose a lighter color so your kitchen remains a cheerful place 😊
If it was my cottage I’d paint the door frames and wall panelling (maybe white?) then you can go a bit darker on the walls….i know it’s more work but it would really lighten the kitchen 👍
ABSOLUTELY! THE COMPLETE PACKAGE.... ENJOY! WE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS...THANK YOU SO MUC...
MacLeods Maiden is my vote, and what a great poster for the kitchen and so appropriate to your way of life!
Kinloch Forest green is the warmest and most cheery!
I like the green as well for the kitchen. Such nice music, Willie, for the boat montage! And happy birthday!
Medium blue looks great and makes the artwork pop! Spectacular sunset!
We also liked the lighter blue, my husband suggested using the darker blue on the wood paneling below. He was very invested 😂
Ahaha excellent! We love getting everyone’s ideas!

You guys are so cute with your antics & humor.
Nori and the barnacles were unexpected!!! Never seen that before!😮
Lovely that the pots brought in deliciousness for a final celebration!!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad Betty is in for the winter so there is no stress for a storm. I think either of the blues work well with the poster and that the poster is perfect for the Skye Life Cottage. Thanks, have a great week.
The light blue was lovely

I think the first paint was the nicest goes perfectly with the poster 😊
I am with Willie. Over a long cloudy winter, you are going to appreciate a bright kitchen. I love a yellow kitchen for the mood lifting lightness in the dark winter. That poster is great!
I have to agree with Willie, the lighter the better in the kitchen.
Another vote for painting the panelling and keeping wall white!
I enjoy you videos. My vote is for the one with storm in the name. I feel it best compliments the print.
The darker paint would look fab on the wood panelling and maybe lighter on walls?
I noticed "Dino" is riding aboard Sarah's necklace. How funny.... Beautiful scenery bringing in the boat and now I remember why we don't have a boat anymore.
Darker blue cupboards are all the rage. Refreshing the walls with a touch of light color from your color choices from your lovely poster would be gorgeous. Love this weeks video. Love seafood ❤ the pups are super adorable 😍

Well, I was thinking about Mango color for the kitchen. Happy, sunny in the day and warm cozy for the evening. If not, one of the 2 💙.
The green one named after a forest, gives a comforting feeling.
The blues were nice too, but green for the win!
Great video, i like the lighter blue. Take care and thank you for sharing your adventure 👍🙏❤️
Hi Sarah & Willie, wow! You lucky people, fantastic scenery, fantastic lifestyle.
I think l agree with Willie, your winter light is a lot darker. I don’t think you need a dark kitchen. You’re the artist Sarah think outside the box 😊.
MacLeod's Maidens or Kinloch Forest work well with the poster, as well as with the existing wood surfaces in the kitchen. Beautiful day to drydock Betty. Another wonderful video. Cheers to you all from Ontario Canada 🫶🇨🇦
Such a fascinating episode. Thanks so much! 🤗
Milovaig Storm looks lovely!
We like the deep mythical blue green of Milovaig Storm! 😁 Also - Willie piloting, Sarah with the grappling hook coming in with the sun setting behind - was really a great shot.
I love the McLeod’s maidens colour. I think the poster really pops against it, and it’s a lovely colour, but it is your home, and I’m sure that any one you choose will be stunning.

Thank you for being a spot of fun and joy in these days.
Ahaha that’s so true!! We don’t end up filming most of our trips, as we worry it would get boring to see them each time 😅
macleods maidens is a great colour goes great with the poster & an awesome spot to visit too ... always windy though...😊😊
I liked the green. It had a hug feel from the look of it. Warm, inviting, secure space vibes imo.
Happy birthday Willie❤
Darker Blue ❤. I'd be tempted to paint all that pine too..... It'll look great no matter what you choose.
The boat is fantastic for your recreation and to supplement your food supply and it's great to see you both taking care of it , so well done both of you 👏👏👍
'...one man and his boat...' the perfect comment for bringing Betty ashore for winter! 😃
Hello Sarah and Willie, Sarah I think the paint color blue tone with a touch of green. Would look good in your kitchen.
Good team work on bringing in the fishing pods. And working together to get the boat back into the driveway. Looking forward to your next video. I so enjoy watching them on Sunday evenings.
Hope Willie had a great Birthday weekend 🎉
This was interesting. It is a lot of work to own a boat. Love the scenic shots. 🌻🍁🇺🇸
Watching on a Monday for a change.... but hey its still a great watch. Winter is Coming🐉 indeed Sarah. 🤟🤟 Squinty picture and Dino necklace 😂
Refresh the walls in a creamy white and paint the cladding, I love mine.
Maclouds maiden …such a beautiful life you have there. I am fortunate to view.
Quite a project - getting the boat out of the sea. Enjoyed this video. And I like the light blue for your kitchen walls. Thanks for this video. Have a great week.
You work so hard! I'm exhausted... ❤
The blue green color looked great!
Do colour in the kitchen ,all 3 colours are lovely and the colours of the sea at the beginning are stunning ,
For me, green is the best colour, guys! I like the war posters, too. I have always fancied getting one of those iron advertisement holdings for soap, mustard powder, Bovril, etc. They are so cool but costly! Enjoying the decorating. It is definitely a cold day job, right enough! :)
Love your channel. I don't miss an episode. I suggest the lighter blue.
Food poster, the colors are amazing 💙

I prefer the darker teal colour because it brings out the warmth in all the woodwork and gives a glow to the room.

Hello from Canada. Consider a nice light green for your kitchen, it is cheerfull and easy on the eyes and brings the outside indoors, very useful in the winter months to keep your spirits up. Thank you for your wonderful video and music to complement it .
Love the lighter blue! And had a good laugh when I noticed the dinosaur on Sarah's necklace!! We really enjoy your videos.
Forest green was lovely !
Wow! The colours from up high 😮 10:21
Brilliant video...lighter on the walls and darker on the kitchen cupboards or darker below and lighter above as the tan woodwork is not my choice but do what makes you happy. Love colour in a home as you definitely see the owners personality big hugs ❤
We have loved watching the boat Adventures. Please continue to show this side of Skye life next year
I prefer the darker Green looks super cosy and warm
The lighter blue on 3 walls and the darker blue on the 4th wall - great poster.
Great video this week, loved it! MacLeods Maiden is my vote!!!
Happy Sunday everyone 🎉
I am terrible about picking out colors for walls and cabinets so I am leaving it up to you :) I love the poster you chose, it fits your lifestyle. Wonderful sunset!
Light is important in the winter as is in summer. I am with Willie.
At our old house, we painted our kitchen cabinets the green color & at our current house, our kitchen tile is the blue color - you can’t go wrong with either color 😅 Loved the boat montage! 🦀🦞
Sarah you should paint that sunset😁
Greetings to all at Skye life cottage 🤗🤗🤗🤗 okay Willie it's not crooked but it's askew😂😂
Hi guys 😢😢😢 sad Betty is tucked away for the winter,well done though both of u worked like a dream. Glad u managed to get some crabs and lobsters for ure last trip.so funny nori biting those barnickles of totally ignoring u willie.loved where the dinosaur was 😂 sarah.❤xx🤙
Like the lighter blue. Color usually appears a shade darker when on the wall. Very pretty choices, Sarah !
I like the idea of painting the woodwork a colour and using a warm white for the walls. I know painting natural wood is controversial, but it is traditional and would have been painted in olden times. I like all the colours but prefer the green for its warmth.
Mc Leod's Maiden 👌
I like the second color, Milovaig Storm but the last color looks nice too. No on the white. What a task in bringing in the boat for the winter. A great time being out on the boat during the summer time. Beautiful sunset to view out there. Great video guys.
Great drone footage
Definitely the darker blue 😍
I really loved the lighter blue colour
Great video again liked all the colours but I think go for the lighter colour. Thanks again have lovely week 💕 xx
I love watching you out on the boat , sad to see it come in . great video as always
On the subject of a picture for the wall……YOUR AN ARTIST PULL AN ORIGINAL ON YOUR WALL !!!!🎉
Either of the blue colors look better than the green
Have you considered painting the tongue and grove, using a colour of your choice from your tester pots, then to brighten up your kitchen walls using bright white?
2nd love Sundays with Willie and Sarah and the boys
