It's like watching an episode of Faulty Towers, Watching James explaining to Skinny how the drain needs to be... Hilarious!!!😭😭

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

Haha! Funny you say that because in next week’s video that we have already filmed, I say that. It gets funnier 😂😂

Maybe time to learn Portuguese James they have free lessons in the village 📖or use a translation app 😇💗💗💗

Lincoln loves his little pool. Skinny speaks very good English, he just sometimes wants to do the job and not talk about. Have a great weekend ❤😊

Hi Cristina and James, I love that door and cannot wait it see it finished. How did your salt in the pavers go for getting rid of the weeds? It is a method that we have used for many years. We just use ordinary table salt. Check out James, you, skinny and instructions re the drain, just hilarious. Lots of exciting things happening in your world, cannot wait till next video.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

Hi Elizabeth, the salt definitely has worked. Almost weed free! Skinny is a great worker and very funny. Many things going on, possibly to much, but we’ll get there. Thanks for taking the time to comment 😊

@leeboss373 4 месяца назад

Should have put a T junction instead of a 90 degree bend above the manhole for rodding access towards the house.

Love your coveralls Cristina. Are you dealing with a lot of lead paint when you sand the old wooden pieces? James should draw a diagram on paper. Skinny is a hard worker. It is funny as the ditch looks like it is going up and not down. Great grading job.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

Thank you Marilyn, it’s not lead paint 👍🏻 Skinny is a great worker very keen. 😊

Hello James & Christina, I learning more work from you two, thank you. Question I’m looking company who make a borehole. Live in central Portugal. Do you know someone? Be great help. Thank you in advance.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

Hello Rosana, We don’t know anyone that does that job! Here in the Algarve, there are a lot of restrictions for boreholes, so I don’t ever know a company to recommend, sorry we can’t help 🤗

@ratanashifu 4 месяца назад

James, it's not easy for us older people to learn a foreign language, but don't you really speak a word of Portuguese? That's amazing considering that Christina can teach you word by word every day to a minimal degree.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

I read speak and understand basic Portuguese 👍🏻

@elisaortiz5827 4 месяца назад

Lincoln is too cute in his pool😗 do the other two get in it also or is Lincoln offended if they do? 😂😂😂

He is 🥰 I put the other two in, they like it, but don’t go in by themselves…

Whew. Close. OCD is a feature . I have scene that after stripping, paint the wood in bleach and leave in the sun. 👍👍

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

That’s interesting! I’ll look into that. 👍🏻

@grahamalastairkrebs2241 4 месяца назад

What about paint stripper. Paint on and wait for the paint to peel and scrap it then off.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

Thank you Graham, exactly what I did 👌

@christobar 4 месяца назад

While I support your ability to make income on these videos it seems like ad frequency has increased to every 1.5 minutes

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

I understand your frustration, but you need to talk to RU-vid about that. Seeing an advert every 1.5 minutes is excessive.

@galdessa1 4 месяца назад

Skinny thinks its a rush job. I bet he never leaves until late.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

He is a great worker! He works really hard, some days we let him go early ☺️

@getlostwhenwondering393 4 месяца назад

I don’t understand why can’t you call Christine and have her translate. Just to ease your stress. But then again, trust the process.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

No stress we communicate just fine.

@alexday5892 4 месяца назад

I love your humbleness James. Skinny had his plan and you letting him go with it was great to see. I was curious to know if a heat gun would have been effective on those old school doors ? That motion steadiness on the truck cam is pretty impressive. 🇦🇺🫶🏻🇬🇧

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

Sometimes you just have to let it roll. Skinny definitely is a character. Cristina did revert to a heat gun in the end and it was much easier 👍🏻 Is it the camera or my steady driving 🤔😉

@deborahbasel184 4 месяца назад

James, you really should be speaking reasonable Portuguese by now. Would make conversations with Skinny and others, alot easier.

@The-Quinta 4 месяца назад

How do you know I don’t ? That’s a big assumption 🤷🏼‍♂️
