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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

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

@jeffsmith2144 Месяц назад

Use Google translate 😮

@arjanvogel6444 Месяц назад

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

@perrybissell1923 Месяц назад

Don’t normally comment as you and Christina are a brilliant team but the latest video with skinny was so funny, the man is a gem 👍

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

He’s hilarious, our conversation just get funnier. Thanks for taking the time to comment. It’s appreciated. 😊👍🏻

@pb973 Месяц назад

Oh my goodness, how cute little ole' Lincoln is. Loves his water during the hot months. ❤ He's certainly a smarty pants. 😊

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Hi, 😊 He goes in so many times a day! Absolutely loves it.

@JadjaVanParghove444111 28 дней назад

Lovely video, hilarious conversations and I love the colourful hippy look on Cristina! 😍 Curious to see the end result of the doors! Thanks!

@The-Quinta 28 дней назад

Thank you ☺️ I’m still working on the doors 😉

@deborahwhite2339 29 дней назад

Skinny has his own way, looks like. As long as it works, i suppose.😂 I can't wait to see how the door works out. The bottom edge looked quite splintery. 🙂👍👍🇨🇦

@The-Quinta 29 дней назад

Skinny has a unique way, let’s just say that 😂😂😂

@Rebeca-sd1md Месяц назад

😂😂😂James, thanks for the good laugh at the end. Skinny means business, lol 😆

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Skinny is a machine 😊👍🏻

@cgp1442 Месяц назад

When words don't convey what you want, try drawing a scatch. Pictures are universal 😊

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Good idea! 👍🏼

@JadjaVanParghove444111 28 дней назад

That were my thoughts too😂

@Talaltariiq Месяц назад

Skinny is a vibe, Loved the video, James!

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Thank you 👍🏻

@Nena84734 Месяц назад

It’s pretty funny watching you and Skinny, hard to keep track of that man, what a worker though!

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Skinny is a great helper! Very lucky to have him helping! 👍🏻

@sandratweedale2579 Месяц назад

Just love watching your adventures. Sweet friends and partners working together to build your dream. And we get to watch 🇨🇦🐶👵🥰👋

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Thank you Sandra 😊

@meglange3595 Месяц назад

😅😂🤣!!! Maybe keep a pad of paper handy and draw pictures instead of trying to explain. LOL!!! Lincoln is so adorable in his baby pool 😍. Have a good week guys!! 🥰🌿♥️

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

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 ❤😊

@alexday5892 Месяц 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 29 дней 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 🤔😉

@suziqt8389 Месяц назад

I was thinking Manuel from faulty towers too....thanks for the giggle

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

😂

@jayneward6649 Месяц назад

Love your colourful trousers Christina ❤ James your pipe work is l9oking good, shame your mate skinny doesn't understand your instructions a bit better 🙈🤣 take care both of you ❤❤❤❤

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Thanks Jayne You take care too 😊

@bridgeandcannon6974 Месяц назад

A Clean Out. For the. sanitary line it's called a cleanout.

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Makes sense 🤦‍♂️

@ceriwibberley8364 Месяц назад

Loved the video it was very funny ! I think skinny had his own plans !

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Thank you ☺️ Skinny is always on the move, no time to listen, too much work to do 😅

@rekavolgaya1122 Месяц назад

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Thank you so much! 😊

Our pleasure 😊

No tijolos were harmed in the making of this video. 😁

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Haha!

@leeboss373 Месяц назад

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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

I’ll tell skinny 😉

@theoboom363 Месяц назад

I started screaming Tampa!!! to my telephone. Better call Cristina to the building site. So funny. Say hello to Magrinho, very nice hardworking man

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

🤣 Skinny actually speaks quite good English.. he just has no time to listen 😅

@Guzzlinggas Месяц назад

Skinny is a rockstar. Coolest guy ever.

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

He certainly is 😎

@LittleChena Месяц назад

The joy of an over motivated employee. 😅❤️

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

It’s great 😊 He is a keeper 👌

@marilynm8812 Месяц назад

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 Месяц назад

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

@arjanvogel6444 Месяц назад

Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, good work, maybe you can burn off the paint from the door 🚪 Cristina with a heat gun or flame 🔥.

@The-Quinta 29 дней назад

Great idea, I did eventually use a heat gun 😊👍🏻

@elizabethtoet1113 Месяц назад

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 29 дней 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 😊

@projectportugal Месяц назад

Cracking video again❤ love the developing relationship with skinny🤣🤣

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Skinny is hilarious, why build something once when you can build it twice 😂

@amaresch66 Месяц назад

Google Translate on your phone may help here, James. Sewer cleanout port.

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

We live on the edge, no translator needed 😂

@rosanadancel7225 Месяц назад

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 Месяц 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 🤗

@miguelrecio7464 Месяц назад

Lid = Tampa (Skinny is an old school character) 😁

@The-Quinta 29 дней назад

Certainly is! Definitely one of a kind. 😎👍🏻

@stephenhaggis1065 Месяц назад

Maybe a pencil sketch for skinny might help ?

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

No need, we get there 👍🏻

@elisaortiz5827 Месяц назад

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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

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

@allanb9360 Месяц назад

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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

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

@grahamalastairkrebs2241 Месяц назад

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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Thank you Graham, exactly what I did 👌

@jdxx59 Месяц назад

But mustn’t let the stripper dry out, cover with plastic cling wrap whilst it is working.

@ratanashifu Месяц 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 Месяц назад

I read speak and understand basic Portuguese 👍🏻

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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

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

@barbaranielsen2888 Месяц назад

Those of us who live in different countries with different languages have stopped laughing? It is very very frustrating?

@The-Quinta 19 дней назад

Thanks for watching! 😊👍🏻

@christobar Месяц 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 Месяц назад

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

@getlostwhenwondering393 Месяц 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 Месяц назад

No stress we communicate just fine.

@mariadange06 Месяц назад

All l'll say is use Google Translate for explaining yourself to Skinny in Portuguese... 'tampa', 'aguentar!' 😜

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

Where’s the fun in that. 😊😉

@deborahbasel184 Месяц назад

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

@The-Quinta Месяц назад

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

@deborahbasel184 Месяц назад

@@The-Quinta because you only converse with Skinny in English.
