    Why is it that people like you, with a couple of tripods, a phone, a drone, a home computer, and a bucket of nous, can make films that are far more entertaining, artistic and informative than most of the stuff on telly? Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Devon, where it's just as wet and windy!

    Back in the late 1970’s, my late husband and I walked up those steps to Sacré Coeur in Paris. He passed away four years ago this week and seeing your vlog brought back many happy memories. We stayed in Pigalle in an ancient hotel that did not turn on the heat in May thus we spent our first day in Paris looking for warm long johns. 🤣 I am sorry to see that you have lost more trees. Stay out of the woods during those wind storms! Fluffy and the donkeys are so fun to watch. Lincoln has really made quick work of dismantling the upstairs. Thanks for the wonderful vlog, as usual. 🎉

    Trees live long, but they are not immortal. We have a few acres of woods beyond our Japanese garden behind the house. Sometimes wind storms knock the old ones down. If they fall all the way down, I leave them where they lie. If they fall against another tree, I get out the chain saw and drop them to the ground. We don't heat with wood--too polluting. We have no use for them and they are usually partially rotten anyway. They go back into the earth, as we all do eventually.

    I think a lot of people are not aware that English Ivy is highly damaging to stone and mortar work on building, including garden walls. It is a perfect, living example of how the hardest substance can still be penetrated with the dullest object over a long time. If you watch any of the other chateau channels on YT, you will notice that some of the owners mistakenly plant English Ivy in their landscaping beds next to their chateaux..... I have only seen one owner plant Boston Ivy, so I am thinking he knows the difference. 🤔

    You're correct on that Boston Ivy (in French Vigne vierge) is in the grape family. They're so beautiful, and I love how they look on your chateau. So sorry about all the tree losses, kinda heartbreaking, it's been such a bad year for that here, though I don't think this part of la Manche got hit as hard as other parts. Happy Birthday to Lincoln! Enjoyed the music choices, too.

    So sad. All the old trees around this old farmhouse are dying too. Walking my dog I noticed, on the way back, one of the pines is leaning. I pray it stays a couple more years. I've been looking for a European Chess Nut but I'd have to buy a tiny 6 gallon at the most near here. Ours is more than half gone yet it still blooms the most beautiful white flowers. I haven't the heart to cut the rest down. Soon. They do make such a loud crack when they fall, huh? The donkeys don't look the least disturbed.

Love the rescue animal content - I would love to see occasional focused segments on each one, such as Enzo's story. And where do all the indoor cats hang out? Do some of them have confidentiality agreements like your daughters do?

That language is almost extinct now, but i still knew people who spoke it (who moved to Belgium after WOII). They died (at relative hig age) a few decades ago altough...
      But the Celtic roots of the region is still very present today, and names of places, especially more rural places still reflect that, just like the very old historic monuments of that region. More west, the language is still spoken also by elder people in small villages, but as France had and has a policy of one standard language (Parisian French), those local languages (and France have a lot of them) are slowly disappearing).

    You guys have a load of wood to cut or leave it all the farmers to and keep. Hope they can get it cleared soon.

    Loved the Paris photography, buildings, water, scenery and the food. And the cooking supply store! Equally loved the cottage update and your hydrangea pruning. And the donkeys and Fluffy cat. Never too much cat material. Thanks!

    Your Cottage will be beautiful. Since you are a Chef, you could offer Air BNB with full dinner service.
    Your guest won’t want to leave.
    Happy belated Birthday, Lincoln!

    Paris is my favourite city and I love France, so I am re-living my memories of it vicariously through chateau utubers! What a great birthday trip, I really miss French food and culture, it has been nearly 5 years since my last trip, hope to go this year. I love your kitty watching you prune the hydrangeas, have you seen the beautiful hydrangeas in Cornwall! Sorry to see the trees fallen in all that wind and rain, hope the weather gets better soon.

    The Paris trip looked so lovely. Good food, comfortable bed, not crowded, and easy traveling make for a nice birthday celebration. "Happy Birthday", Lincoln! I remember seeing a video last year where you were talking about trees coming down. You must get high winds where you live. Maybe it is time to have a forester take some of your overgrown trees down. It's too dangerous walking under them for sure. Take care, happy gardening and cracking the plaster.

    The plant you say is not dangerous we call ‘Virginia Creeper’ in England. It looks beautiful on your home. As you say it’s perfect as long as you keep it away from gutters etc. We have an eternal battle with Ivy on our old property and in the garden, so I understand your battle with it. Happy Birthday Lincoln. 🎂🥂🍾

    The English ivy WILL run until eventually it grows very thick stalks which can dive into any crevice in your building. It’s a nice staircase for rodents and insects too.

      Hydrangeas are incredibly popular here so it's just called "hortensia fertilizer" Not helpful, I know!

    Will drive through Paris next Sunday, after a night on the ferry from Cork in Ireland to Roscoff. Then the endless journey to the Black Forest near Basel for a 90th birthday. - Happy belated birthday to Lincoln! Finally a tractor owner!

    Hi Amanda and Lincoln. Happy Birthday Lincoln 🎉. After cleaning out the cabin you deserve 2 weeks off🎉😅🎉. Even tho it rained at least you were in Paris❤.Loved that kitchen shop❤, could wonder there for hours😊.Food looks amazing although I honestly couldn’t tell what anything was😅. Those doors were magnificent! Can you imagine having doors like that???❤❤❤. Thankfully those gorgeous trees aren’t near the house,but I hate seeing them come down😢. Well at least there is No Way you will have a drought this year! Beautiful video as always. Take care now.
