What Happened to...? - ASK  

It's rotten that you were effectively punished for being the victim of crooks. A shame that more couldn't be done about it. Anyhoo, onwards!

Followed your initial channel and was so very annoyed, when it suddenly stopped. And very happy to find your guys again 👍🏻love your content. It's not the how to... it is your story and dry humour

"Grow" to me, when I watch your videos, is more than just growing your garden. You allow your minds to grow as well. That challenges me to do the same in my own life. Question: what do you use for your European Portuguese language lessons? Is it online? Thanks!

Not having ever seen the other videos, Id love to see them all, but if there's content that brings it all up to date (finding the property, the solar, building the "camp", first views of the property (before and after)), any culture shock from moving to another country, etc.) would love to see them too :) Just keep making it, doing it, and growing it, and we'll keep watching it :)

My top3 chapters! 😊 1) your process of finding a house, the different houses you visited, why you ended up picking Sertã and what made you choose that house ; 2) the process thought of building your temporary accommodation, kitchen and bathroom. 3) your findings on the wood structure inside the house and why you choose lime as a building material. ( I did not forget the water system, which would be 4th for me!)

I was a subscriber to the old channel, so glad to finally have the mystery solved. I hadn’t heard any of the wild guesses. Most were amusing. I love y’all no matter what you call your channel.

I loved watching your old channel especially the setting up of your decking and tent and everything that you built around it. I am happy for you that things have worked out for the best because you are such hard workers and a joy to watch.😀

As much as I just love watching Kylie digging away, I would like to revisit the upper level renovation, love the energy you both have.

Finally the mystery was revealed! :) Nice to hear it was an issue you found a solution to and you are not in any kind of trouble. A suggestion for archive video - the yard transformation has been amazing thing to watch, so would love to see that journey also properly in the new channel.

I watched a lot of your older videos and the bathroom re-sizing video comes to mind, where Kylie did a lot of working out of measurements and the digging up of the floors in the rooms you've just limed. Wow that was excruciating to see you both digging those out. I was so sad when your channel disappeared then elated when I saw your new one xxx

Thanks for the "clarification" of what happened to your old channel. I found you under the old name and loved that you had a property that was large enough to homestead on, yet was in a village so you had easier access to stores, etc. I think you have the best option for many people who would like to do something similar in Portugal. Being rural is nice but in an emergency or with rising petrol prices, it may not be the best option for people. Keep doing what you are doing. I would like a video on how you plan to use all your land in the future, if you have thought that out. Your channel is so refreshing and always encourages me to get outside and do something in my garden. Cheers.

"Chicken TV", I like that term, Guy. Probably because I like chickens as well as watching them. Thanks!

The answering in this video is helping me so much understanding your story. I found this channel a few months ago and always felt like I missed out on something, but when I checked your vids on this channel I couldnt find older ones that helped me to make the puzzle complete. So thank you, cant wait to see older vids!!! A big compliment that even without the whole story, and dealing with that feeling of missing something (haha), I still got hooked and fell in love with your channel! Greetings from The Netherlands :)

Thanks for the explanation, would love to see your property search videos (well actually all of your previous videos actually!)

I remember very well the episode were you cleaned up the water reservoir and Guy ended up in freezing cold water. That was VERY funny and I laughed to tears about your dry and funny comments... and Guy's desperate try to be heroic in the cold water! 😉

Would really love to see all the renovations from the upstairs as this would give so much more context to what the house was like when you arrived. Would also show off more than just your digging skills!

Thank you for explaining, glad you carried on. So looking forward to seeing the house in his full glory one day.

I have no clue what you said. I like the channel and find it very informative. so I will continue to watch. thanks.

Old videos: 1. The process of searching and finding the property got me started 2. the lime wall you did and then redid (is that a word?) I found most inspiring. because you didn't just cover it up, you removed everything and did all the limeplastering again.

Don’t really care what you are called, but the new name is great, just keep showing those great video’s, so love what you are doing xx

Yes, I would enjoy your property search and some of the first changes you made in the house & creating your temporary living quarter. You are both so admirable in you vision, your work ethics, and your way of breaking things down, thinking them through, and work towards your goals. Thank you.😊

One of the old videos that made me subscribe to you was when you did the walls inside the house with the wrong lime. The fact that you listened to the comments and the way you admitted your mistake and fixed it was so refreshing and I've been a fan ever since. I personally would love to see the videos again about any of the work being done inside the house, those were the most interesting to me. Thanks for clearing up this question it really bothered me not to know!

Thanks for answering the 'What happened....' Love watching your journey and would happily watch all the videos again

Finally! Thank you! Been watching since the beginning. Love the videos.

Was a HUGE fan watching the 'old' name videos....heartbroken when you disappeared...felt so heartwarming when you were 'back' !!!...under whatever name....fantastic journey with two very loveable people...who can ask for more ??!!! ♥️

I appreciate your way of explaining things. It is clear, exact, to the point. Love it!

I am new to you and am binge watching this playlist (and planning on continuing as my time allows). I cannot wait to see whatever you have to offer - it's all super interesting. Your dynamic, your humor, your calm conversation (no drama fish bait) and beautiful content just FEEDS me. I am happier, and ready for a lovely day after watching you. Thank you. So sorry for the hassle you experienced!

I'm so glad you two are safe and productive. Great seeing you again!

I love how you are straight to the point and explain it well. No waste of time. Thank you for the explanation.

Glad too know all good with you guys, love watching your Journey.

Very interesting! Looking forward to see the "start" of it all!

I didn't know about the old videos - love to see them!

I love what you bring to your channel and thank you for sharing your journey.

You guys are brilliant, love ya channel, keep plugging away. Living the dream.

I’m glad you (briefly) mentioned the weather station. If you still have it, perhaps an idea for a flashback episode.

Awesome, great idea, I have been a subscriber from No 1, and would love to see every single one of them again. And good luck with all your future endeavors.

I am happy to hear that you have overcome this obstacle. I do so enjoy your videos and I wish the best for you both.

Thank you for explaining

It's so nice to finally understand what happened. So glad I found the new you.

So happy you are still doing what ya do.

Your honesty is something worth to be referred!! Thank you!! You are an example. All the success for you.

Thank you for explaining.

I’m new to your channel and I love it! I really appreciate your honesty and the fact that you don’t try to make what you’re doing look easy. Very inspirational 😊

thanks for the explanation of past events, all seemed to end and change so quick, though great to hear you have triumphed over your challenges and continuing to thrive! Keep up the great work!

Specifics! That’s a Wonderful Word! Certain people don’t like people earning “Money”!

Absolutely adore your humor!

Absolutely love watching you two...Sensible honest fun people...with lots of interesting material to watch...keep going 👍

You are wonderful source of inspiration.

I've seen those videos and I personally liked all of them and will look forward to seeing them again. You two are fantastic to watch thanks

I was wondering what had happened. Thank you for the video and am so sorry this happened to you. Happy to have found you again.

Great that you are back, loved the old videos and the new ones

I love the building videos on the house. Thanks

Loved every single one of your old videos and am enjoying all the new ones as well! You are so inspiring with your sense of humour, hard yacka, fun ideas, humility and down-to-earth approach. Keep on keeping on!

I watched your old content many times! I love your story your way of telling your journey and your sense of dry humor!

I am glad you explained what happened.

Delighted you have got over problems. I really enjoyed your videos and hope that it will continue. Thanks.

What an incredible journey, I am so glad that things worked out. I am so sorry you had those issues though, another headache you certainly didn't need on top of everything else.

I found your initial channel early on, and I too was unhappy about it's disappearance. I sadly have no life at 76 with cancer You Tube is one means of entertainment. PLEASE bring about your "Plunge Pool" video. I probably have seen at least a half dozen times. It just made me laugh. Especially, Guy suffering for his art. Nothing but blessings as you continue your adventure.

I like you guys, your frankness about life s ups and downs, problem solving, passion for living is refreshing.

We truly love that you are eco friendly, use green products, etc! keep up the great work!

Well that explains what happened . I messaged you guys about why no vids after christmas, and you very kindly replied.. So glad you're all sorted now. 👍

Just glad you both are back.

Great to have you both back, whatever the name.

Quality content always shines through. I miss the old channel but am happy it has worked out for you.

Kudos to you two for rolling with the punches, adapting and coming out ahead with what works better for you. So even for some chickens the grass is always greener on the neighbors side. Thanks again for sharing.

I love your channel. Never even knew you had an old one. I’m looking forward to seeing any recaps you release from old video footage. Thanks guys!

I just love your vlogs and really looking forward to the Archives. You are both really easy to watch and its all GREAT.

Pretty much seen them all & loved them all. Please get them all on this channel! Its nice to finally jnow what happened. All the best to the both of you!

Awesome to hear your story. Thanks for sharing it with us. Very much looking forward to the new/older videos. Love chicken tv 🥰 Appreciate you two so much.....x

Just new to watching your lovey channel and enjoying the content. Thanks for putting things in context, makes sense now. Look forward to seeing some of your archive :)

Good for you. I’m glad to still enjoy the videos that resonate with me and I enjoy your engagement and communication style and content.

This was my #1 burning question, thank you for that insight and sharing what happened. I'm a relatively new watcher, and I found your old channel because my partner and I are Portugal property hunting. There were some amazing videos documented on the previous and I couldn't get through them all before things started disappearing. But I can say, you both have done an amazing job capturing that same energy across the board so I always look forward to your videos. Well done! Can't wait to see archival footage and new! #makedogrow

Head high...middle finger higher.... The fantabulous MAKE DO GROW is almost at 50,000 subscribers🥳👍 whoop whoop!

Well I'm sorry to hear the ill intent actions of others impacted you. But being hard working creative folks you've rebounded!! I don't know the exact quote but it is something about how you get up after being knocked down, and you guys jumped back up with vim and vigor!! Well done. Hugs from 🇨🇦

I must have started watching just after the changeover. I was a bit confused but the flashback episodes helped a lot. LOVE your videos.

Im'm glad that you bounced back from all that crazy stuff that happened. Your channel is very informative. I do loved those old videos. Maybe re publishing them could show the rest of the new subs how everything started. Keep it up!!!

Wow! I did not know! Well, like you have said, it turned out for the better. Far less stress for you both! Love your channel! You got me laughing with the chickens!! 🥰

The archive series is such good news to us! We both love your videos and although we only started watching you in June 22, we’ve watched everything you’ve released this year, and we both would love, love, LOVE to see ALL your previous videos in “full” however long it takes. We’ve only just started this particular journey together and we know it will take a few years, but we are loving all the preparation and planning.

I’ve been here for a long time and have no need to go back, I’m always looking forward to the new videos. Always great content and delivered brilliantly with lots of humour. 👍🏻

Good call on the Chicken TV. But also good info, I like to hear you two talk as well. Thanks for shedding some light on the mystery!

Sounds interesting, look forward to seeing the Archives

Well wow! Who knew? A fitting end to Ask - Season 1. Here I was thinking it was a copyright issue. Excellent video and hilarious switch of the off camera "bye" at the end. You had me laughing like I was a comedy show. Good one Guy.

love you both so much and enjoy your videos. so glad I found your channel.

Many thanks for the explanation and response to my questions. 😘 I do like the most the building/technical videos. The foundation of your project

Thanks for the explanation regarding your previous YT channel, I've been watching since very early days and have always enjoyed all your output, it just gets better. I'll mention one video that sticks in my mind for the archive series think it was called 'How much land is to much land?' ish. but has I say they where all very good. Thank you for all your effort in making these videos as I know it takes huge amounts of time to film and put together.

I have never missed a single one of your videos, new or old channel and I have to say THANK YOU for the explanation, right in line with what I figured. And you made it right, goodo for you! And there is no need to watch the videos again (unless something like recipes or instructions are sought) so I would tailor your old videos to new viewers you have garnered with the new channel. They are perfect in every way, tis why we are all here ;-)

Hi, I have watched from the beginning and would love to see them all again. Really look forward to your videos every week. Take care xx

Oh! I love this! Love it. To survive and continue to grow in success, we adapt. Resilience and adaptation. For me personally, it has become a mantra.

Would absolutely LOVE to be able to see your archived videos again! Loved the set up of your solar of how and why. The simplicity proves just exactly what we need and what we think we need.👍🏻❤️💕🇨🇦

I just want to share that I really enjoy you channel. Your work inspires me as you learn all along

Good for you! Glad the new label is working for you guys.

Fabulous video thanks 😊👍🇬🇧👍

Early subscriber to the other channel - have seen most if not all of your videos! Love them all! The tent video was a trip - had to wrap my mind around you living out of a tent until the house restoration/renovations are complete! The kitchen, shower, and solar are all great ones too. Thanks for sharing!

Having only just discovered you both, I would love to see any archive videos showing your journey from where? to Portugal. Really enjoy your take on life, its refreshing and an easy watch.

I loved the stripping of bad concrete plaster from the house walls and rebuilding the lentils. Building the whole tent, kitchen, and shower set up was really cool

I've been watching you guys since the beginning of your move to Portugal. The video's that first popped into my mind were the initial walk through of the house, the bathroom tear-out, the kitchen floor issues, and the replacing of window lintels. All your videos have been very inspiring.

Wow, the drama! Love the archive idea. So glad it's sorted, loved the old channel and this new channel. 💖

Thanks for the explanation. I'd be interested in re-seeing the videos on how you repaired and repointed the stone walls in your house. I enjoy following your journey.

It's like a Korean tale about the old man who lost his horse! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for sharing you are amazing. Philippa Australia
