Hi James, you cannot put a price on true happiness, life is too short to have regrets. You have a great family and you have undertook a mammoth task in building your amazing koi pond. I've said before ot is a credit to your hard work an perseverance to get through obstacles that were against you, but you did it. You have been an inspiration to all of us and given us goals in what we undertake. You will all enjoy this for many years to come an I look forward to seeing you purchase more lovely koi to put in your creation. Live life to the full and enjoy. Keep your lovely family safe. Thank your mother for the rabbits 🐇🐇🐇🐇🎏🎏🎏🎏👍👍👍👍🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇⛩⛩⛩
Love that thanks mate
This is a well set up pond. As a koi fanatic myself, this hobby ain’t cheap but its surely worth it. Good job☺️👍🏻
Thanks for sharing , James . 20K is a lot of money , but now you have a fantastic pond that will last for years . You probably saved 10k from all the hours of graft , you put in . Well done . You deserve it
Hi James, having watched all your videos on the pond build from start to finish and the trials, tribulations and problems you came across, you should be very proud of what you have achieved and it’s a great looking pond and filter setup. Top man and 👍 for taking the time to share the true costs of your setup as lots of people don’t really like to say the true costs, so we’ll done to you. Proper the 🔨and thank ya mother for the 🐇🐇🐇
Thanks mate appreciate that one
Evening James👍😊. £20k is a substantial amount of money but just think of the years of joy you’re going to get out of it👍😊. Koi keeping isn’t cheap but when you compare it to golf club membership and fees, premier league football club season tickets and other hobbies it compares favourably👍😊. Your pond is magnificent and a credit to your vision, effort and perseverance, you should be very proud of what you have achieved regardless of the cost👏👍🥇. Now just sit back and enjoy (and think of all the improvements you can make this season😂🤣👍). Take care buddy, best wishes for the koi season ahead👍🐟🈲😊
😂😂🐇🔨nail on head right there this hobby never stops lol 😂 I am planning to go carp fishing a few more times this year stay safe mate and keep up the good work yourself
As long as u and rest of the family are happy, cost doesnt matter. Life is too short, so enjoy to the fullest...more over, it was beautifully done. Fishes are all happy too...
Awesome pond , awesome build, can't put a price on happiness , enjoy it mate it's stunning as are your koi .
Love the finished product James!! All the pleasure you got out of building it and now enjoying it was well worth 20k.
Mate that pond is bombproof, worth every penny..imagine how much labour would of cost on top..
Your wife is truly one in a million for allowing it 🤭
It is what it is, life’s too short to put your dreams on the shelf.
Total admiration for what you have achieved by following your dream!!
It's a fantastic set up, you have done yourself and your helpers proud👍
Great video to sum up your magnificent build James, a lot of money but a lot of pond which you and the family will enjoy for years to come, very well done and roll on to the better weather so we can enjoy our ponds. 👌
Well done James an amazing Koi fish pond and loved your journey to the point I've started building an out door Koi pond your are inspirational !!!!!!!!
James, you did not just build a pond, you’ve build a masterpiece
Stunning pond! You did such a great job. Definitely worth all the hard work and cost.
Love your new pond mate! Absolutely beautiful
I am so jealous of your new pond! That thing is nothing short of a dream and must be one of the most relaxing backyards in the UK.. And the Kujaku looks awesome in it!!
Well done you have done a brilliant job and the fish look really happy 👍
Absolutely fantastic build ,the filter house is like an operating theatre ! I’m just starting my new 1200 gallon koi pond ,no expense spared project and I’ll be pinching a few of your ideas 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good walk around, love the honesty and sharing. 👏👏👏
Thanks 4 keeping it 100 James… that’s why I luv your channel bro… thanks 4 sharing.
Happy days 🔨🐇💥
Your drive,determination and passion is amazing, so enjoyable to watch.
Hi James, consider how much you learnt over the past year and the 20 to 30 years enjoyment you’re going to get from the knowledge that you built that pond, watching your koi grow enormous whilst sitting back having a beer or three. Small price to pay! Stay safe and well 👍🏻
At £20k I think that was pretty good. I watched all video,s and watched them again while u were on your winter break. All top gear as well. Your labour saved a fortune especially with the poor access. Still a work in progress ie heating ? Or covers even. Your a top bloke. Keep up the good work with the smoking, your health is important . Looking forward to future content.
Self built that's not bad considering the build equipment u have....Happy days....not bad.....
Brilliant video. I was only thinking this morning how much you’d spent on your pond and stuff. Very informative, thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
What an amazingly organised pump room!!!! I admit trying to work out the pipes layouts is terrifying me for when I go to do mine. Very impressed with your layout and organisation!
Thanks for sharing the cost. Some people don’t like to discuss money but it’s the most important part for most.
I’d be interested to see what you would have done differently on the build to either improve the pond or keep the cost down. 👍👍
Top bloke love the fish and the pond🎣
James no matter how much you spent it was all money worth spending.. the whole set up is amazing 👍👍
like you say its your dream pond and dreams cost money. for someone to go a dream holiday wouldnt be cheap or a dream car or dream house. your pond is amazing and your an inspiration to others to work hard and to go and fullfill their dreams in whatever it may be. well done bro and thank your mother for the rabbits 😉
Hi James Lovely Job !!!😄😄👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Cracking job mate you grafted hard last year, time to enjoy it 👍
It's worth more than that too you brother, Injoy it because you deserve it my man. Fare play and I take my hat off to you.
Beautiful pond . Worth every penny . Enjoy
True that
" pull out 1 spade of soil from the ground= atleast 2 spades into the skip.
10 years ago I dug out 2 " flower boarders from our back garden.
1 man,1 shovel and 1 wheelbarrow. 60 yards each way round the back and down the side of the house to a skip on the drive.
4 x 8 ton skips later
My poor back and nackered wheel barrow hummed 36 tons of wet soil.
You should be proud of yourself, generating some revenue from your videos even if it was a small percentage of total build costs is fully deserved. Your build videos brought a great deal of pleasure to many of us last year - congratulations 👍
Thanks Paul it was good fun this year I got some more of that pleasure lined up did you see my cup 🤣🤣🤣
@@JamesTHEKOIwhisperer123 yes mate, me and the missus ( who comes carping and cat fishing with me sometimes) we’re both laughing 😂
@@paulhigginson3876 lol 😂
stunning mate
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video mate well worth the money hope your support on the channel etc helped especially for the entertainment your videos provided last year mate i learnt so much from you thanks for that
Doesn’t matter how much it cost. You can’t put a price on pleasure and happiness. You look at it everyday and think to yourself “I did that” and smile from ear to ear. I rebuilt mine last year and felt lost after I finished. Your pond looks the dogs danglies and you should be very proud of yourself. Well done mate.
Very very true
Love to come n see ya pond mate, you've done a grand job on it. 👌👍
Any time
I doubt very much I’ll be upgrading, far to bigger cost, saying that the people who do the big upgrades the outlay certainly shows and the joy of the finished product is brilliant especially yours James, the suppliers have realised the lockdown ponds have spurred the hobby and with that costs have arisen. This build is a credit to you and your family years of happiness to follow well done 👏👏👏👏
Hi James it was great watching your videos throughout the year and what a end result worth all of the 20k
Your pond is so nice worth all the money & years of enjoyment!
Wow that’s a few grand less than I make a year!
But i did buy a new/used 2018 Subaru Forester last year that cost more than your pond & I wouldn’t like I’m sure you feel would change a thing!
Do what you like get what you like when your young mate!
Happy days take care & all the best in 2022
Looking forward to all you get up to this yr!
I truly enjoy your videos & have supported you since 2020
Watched very video from start to finish and loved this project! Forget about the jealous haters 😜 thank your mother for the rabbits
Fantastic pond.
You do what you want mate. End of day your hobby. The pleasure you get out of it and health benefits out way the costs in the end. Just don't tell the Mrs 🤫
Well done looks amazing 👏🏻 fish look really happy. It’s worth it in the end. It’s my dream to have a koi pond one day. Must be amazing to sit out on a summers evening. Love the colour scheme and the plants are a nice touch around the edge.
it is super !!! i like it glad its your money NOT MINE
If you can't live for your dreams then what's the point. I personally think this is a bargain for what you have achieved. It would have cost a lot more if you hadn't grafted and it wasn't your fault you had to fix the drains. This has been the best series on youtube and is definitely the best koi channel. You've worked hard to achieve your dream and deserve it. Imagine chilling out in the summer having a BBQ and looking at the fish, superb. You just need to add on the cost of staining the back door. :). Well done James.
James really think you should do a live stream Q+A mate would be pucka 👌😉 your content is excellent by the way
I did a similar thing keeping hold of EVERY receipt that involved anything to do with my pond. It’s 1000 gallons in size with some solid filtration and equipment, filter house etc, and costed it at just over £6k. Surprising how quickly the costs mount up, some of the receipts are eye watering. Covid has definitely had a massive impact on price of materials.
Nonetheless, it’s worth every penny in my opinion, and you’ve done a cracking job mate. I’ve still got plenty of bits and pieces to do, and it will be my first full season this year. Looking forward to every minute of it!
Nice pond and it was nice watching the fibre glass being installed
Hi James, having watched all your videos on the pond, it is worth the money at the end, and it is a one off James, so you don't have to do all of it again and with all the lights and the pond window, and you should be very proud for your hard work and James and you can sit there in the summer late at night with your lights on mate
Hell yea mate
@@JamesTHEKOIwhisperer123 That's what I do with my pond James, with the lights and have some beers as well mate and see the fish with the pond window it is so chilling out as well mate
James I watched all your videos you worked your bollocks off mate , I am so happy for you that you got your dream pond and it will last for many many years .
All the best mate 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks mate appreciate that and well happy with it tbh
james you did a great job,and one day the overdraft will be cleared and until then Enjoy your fish and your hard labour. PS I was spot on with my guess "HE WONT HAVE MUCH CHANGE OUT OF TWENTY GRAND"
absolutely epic pond sir.
Labour alone would of been 10k plus mate ! Stunning build loved watching all the videos of you building it mate . Here's to 2022 and some new fishies 😉
To right mate
Hi James,
I've watched almost all your video's of last year. You've made a great build!! And expected something like 15K. But I forgot to count the entire garden with fencing and pavements.
Nice that you are willing to share the pricetag with us.
PS my wife almost killed me with our pond that was made just under 5k
Worth every penny mate imagine what the cost could have been. Just don't move house!!! And enjoy it. Amazing achievement
Good on ya for doing such a good diary done on this build mate! Ponds looking ace
Thanks 👍
Nice bro congrats very ornate and entertaining place to host guests
I think that’s money well spent tbh, it looks a top quality job👌
Wow James 🤩🤩🤩🤩 this wat dreams are made of, I think you spent around the 28k mark if not more, seen every single video of this pond build and I have to say it’s was worth every penny, wen you retire, you look back on this beautiful pond and say I made this, then absolute Hammer 🔨 👌🏆🏆🏆👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️
Good job!
I loved last years weekly uploads, look forward to seeing what you do this year 👍
You only live once James, and my god you worked hard to get it. Enjoy it now mate. Fish are looking amazing threw that window
Where did you get the Koi pictures on the wall? Cheers excellent pond, also are you heated?
Too be honest I've seen similar price tags on some of my customers ponds with less quality equipment and finish on the overall project so you done good for ya lolly James 👌 bring on the summer nights chillin with a bbq n brew pond side 👊👊✌️
Totally agree
Legend.... Well done James, money well spent.
Hi mate you cannot put a price on happiness I watch you from start to finish building your pond and like I said it's one of the best ponds on CZcams cracking job 👍 I know what you mean my start my new pond in the spring and at the moment it's cost me over £2000 and I not finished buy yet but it will be worth it when it's finished
20000 pounds is nothing compair where i live congrats on your new pond it is a dream enjoy it mate enjoy it cant wait to see some new koi in the pond
James what an absolutely brilliant video, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your openness and honesty, your are truly "The Hammer 🔨 "
Wow, thank you
I have known for a while now how much it cost 😉 but was nice to see a breakdown 👍 I would like to see something koi related to help raise money for charity especially with this cost of living crisis we are in, people need food banks more than ever. 😢
20K on a koi pond is better then on a car,with a car you loose all your money fast.This never got away,you did a fcking good job and a jewel from a pond you have now ! Cheers :)
True mate
Money well spent 👌🐟
It's a brilliant job and have loved watching every episode of yours and you are a Top Bloke up the hammer 🔨 💪 👏🏻 🍻 🐇
Wow, thank you
How did you make the inside so smooth? liquid rubber? how was it applied? it looks super smooth
Money well spent James should last a lifetime 👍👍👍
Worth every penny mate 👍👍💪
Top job that mate. you have really helped me plan for my pond starting in 2023. I expect a 20k bill for mine too !!!!
The amount of labor you put in would have added a lot. Good work
great work James nice pond great job love it
Should be proud of yaself mate 👌🏼nice job
Thoroughly enjoyed watching every video you did on the pond build..the way it's turned out is a true testament to all your hard work and patience from Mrs whisper...Thoroughly deserved..keep them coming..👍👌
Quality mate much deserved 👏👏👏
Most people would think of spending that sort of doh on a posh suv. I tell you something tho, I would sooner have that koi set up than an suv any day of the week James. Thank ye mother for the bills 😁
glass window you had a result cost wise
You have done a top job of that pond I did my new pond last year it takes over your life but well worth it hopefully we get a mint summer this year so you can sit back and injoy with a beer 🍻. What else can you spend 20k on and give you that much joy for years to come bargain 😀👍
pond fittings koi pumps etc 5 acres koi
I take it that is the best of the best for the volume you have built at 20k
Well done pal ur pond and garden look the dogs bollox it's the hammer
up the hammer Tommy
As you know I've 2 pumps in the pond one for the 3 barrels and 1 for the bakki shower I've a retro fit bottom drain can I take the pump out scratching me head here 😆
@@Tucker402 would say mate you need to keep them both in like my old pond mate
Yeah pal no worries thanks a mill for that
Hi James
I'm a retired bricklayer what you done with the blockwork was spot on even the 3'4'5. Squaring the corners 👍
Legend mate.
Worth every penny for the enjoyment you get.
to right mate and your work made it the hammer mate happy days still need to pop back and have that beer and koi chill this summer mate
We no what you are saying regarding building a koi pond our was over 25k and some more, but if it’s what you want then you go for it so enjoy
Well James amazing work from yourself you probably know you saved money by doing the job yourself and think of the enjoyment it brings you hopefully you will get many years of enjoyment from your pond and the amazing koi would you do it all again ? Best wishes GEORGE DOVE 🕊 IN BLACKPOOL
Hello sir james. Do you have a blueprint of your pond? Or a sketch? I like your set up man. I would lime to build just like that in the near future. Hope that i can get a sketch of your pond design.
no blue just CZcams videos lol
구독하고 갑니다^^
Ya carnt take it with you
Wow… you’re like buses 😀. The value of money is in the spending not the keeping. Just a thought, be good to see a 60 minute time lapse of your entire pond build. Yes a friggin hooooj amount of editing, but would be a great watch for people. Keep up the vids, and what a helluva pond.
20k well worth the money mate fantastic job 👍
