You can make a two or three-tier deck to cover the big stones.

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

@moniqueslikkerveer6158 3 месяца назад

Little advice: First put the soft stones in place. Then jackhamer them. So you don't have to put the little stones in the tractor by hand.

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

Hello Paula !!! :) yes we did considered .. and now we will DIG more soil so we would see what size is that rock and what we can do with it ;) Adventure continues .... G

@MyPlayHouse 3 месяца назад

AllPowers are great,, I have been working with them for years,, and also got the S2000 with the SP033 200W panels as my first Allpowers setup :-) still working great! Suggestion,,, take your laser level, and set it up to be 1 cm lower than that big rock,, and then take off one cm,, every day,, or you can each take off a cm. 🙂

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

Or we could use the dynamite (as someone suggest it) and then we won't have rock or the house ;) I think your idea is very good Thank you :) And thank you for watching us !!!! G xxx

As the video began I thought.. these guys should have an off grid power sponsor.. I had names in mind and as I watched, there was AllPowers. I did not know that name, but hey there they were providing an alternative power source for you. Fantastic ❗️❗️ G, your garden is wonderful.. I wish I had your bounty.🧅🧅 A, it’s good to see you have been wearing shoes, even if it’s not steel toed..🌸❤️ Much love to you both🐨🐨. And Guffy🐶

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

Hello Lorraine !!! You got some special powers then ;) Can you wish for something else now :) :) I was very surprised and happy with them onions .. but I can't wait for tomatoes now ... can't wait to start making all sorts from them !!! G xxx

@maureenmccoll6444 3 месяца назад

All that digging in concrete is so soul destroying. Wouldn’t you like to build a small deck area in that bit.

@bevkirk1475 3 месяца назад

I was thinking the same

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

We would like to have flat area .. I think If we would do that deck when in a future we would though ohh we should of done extra work for a week and all would be different .. so we will dig (well andrius will cha cha ) We done so much so far so this is not a big difference !!! Gxxx

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

Ahhh thank you :) I am not sure how I got them so big !!! Luck !! :) or maybe the person who looked after garden used some kind of fertiliser to make everything grow big and it still in the soil !!! But If I will grow them like that next year then I will take the credit LOL Gxxx see you on Saturday

@Reet64 3 месяца назад

It's great to have that extra power bank! Good work getting your space cleared and making the rocks usable for your other purposes.

Graniet is een erg harde steensoort. Ik heb respect voor de steenhouwers uit vroegere tijden die al die stenen hebben gemaakt voor jullie huisje

@Liz-uq1ec 3 месяца назад

Will you add that bit of video in the next one? I imagine you, Giedre, drove the truck to or from CB?!

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

Yes he will !!!! It was a good work out as well shame he forgot to include in this one .. but he said he will add to saturdays .. Yes I was driving Truck to CB ... this was first proper time I drove mechanical car ... but I done good so that's why I decided to go to Portuguese classes and finish them .. as A don't want to go anymore so it means I will drive on my own !!! YIPPY !!! ;) Hence I done that post on Facebook on Tuesday ;) Gxxx was a big day for me :)

@Liz-uq1ec 3 месяца назад

Well done, you.. you're so adaptable, Giedre..and for the continued language course.. xx

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

I had to !!!! I want to finish it :) Gxxxx

@rosemaryjasper1121 3 месяца назад

Goodness G, green fingers indeed! Great result with the onions. Rather than trying to drill out the rocks could you not build a small deck over that area? You could even have a deck on 2 different levels to add interest. Bit concerned, G you don’t appear to have ear defenders, you may not be drilling but you are working right next the drilling!❤

@portugalitis 3 месяца назад

Hi Rosemary ... my hearing is perfect maybe even to perfect !!! as I can hear little scratch few meters away ... will see about decking .. I am sure we will do our best ... I bet our plans might change ... ;)

@stan525 2 месяца назад

if you fill the porch with all the rubble you will save using alot of concrete and help clean up the mess. looking good cant wait for the roof to start. your hard work is paying off

@portugalitis 2 месяца назад

Hello !!! that's what we done the next day .. we used more stones and less concrete !!! we learned from day before !!! :) G
