Your garden is doing great! I'm an old woman, and here is my advice . Wear sunblock, a hat and a T-shirt. My father died from melanoma at age 36. Your villa is going to be so wonderful. ❤
The design of all of the bathroom fixtures-sink, bathub, bidet & toilet- are gorgeous!U.S.-based interior designers would pay a small fortune to get their hands on those. I’d check with designers like ateliermavi to see if there’s a market for them in Italy. Seriously… don’t throw them away!!!
Dennis here in Dallas,Texas. Just a note to say you are creating great content. Careful not to burn yourself out. A heat stroke will affect you for many years to come. Take precautions. Create a great day my friend.
If the bidet, sink, bath, etc are in good working order I wouldn’t get rid of them. Reuse them in a different spot if you have more than one bathroom. Fixtures are e pensive and you can always find a way to make them compliment a design. I still have the 1949 bathtub and sink in my house. It would cost over $2,000 to buy an equivalent tub to mine. But that tile has yo GO. If you can find a traditional Italian tile with that same blue predominate those fixtures would be outstanding. When I removed the old tile I used a brick chisel. I also put a board over the tub to protect it.
Agree with the comments below regarding the bathware in that room - they are so incredibly cool and will shine in a MCM bathroom redo - so keep for resale - would be sacrilege to chuck
AMAZING!!!!!😊😁🌞✨🌟your attention to detail, the thought, care and time you take just to plant and nuture one of your many tomatoe plants You are Wonderful!!!😁☺😊😃😁that radish!!!

Hello Sam, je trouve ce bleu de la salle de bain particulièrement beau très vintage, surtout avec les accessoires dorés. Il a l’air de faire chaud, attention au soleil . Beau jardin, à bientôt. ❤️👩🌾
Hi from South Africa, love to warch your videos. No criticism, just wonder, why not clear the front, roadside garden also and plant some of that beautiful plants there. I would give my front teath for that cobalt blue bathset!
You said the tiles had to go to allow room for window trim. Any chance you'd consider keeping the wall of tiles where the tub was? The potted plant on the tile above the tub area is super nice & in keeping with the size of the room & the height of the ceiling. And, I believe I saw in a previous video a white footed tub you & your father were bringing in. Woo-hoo... THAT would be go good looking. Smart & elegant! Eventually you could cover the window walls with paper, just paint or possible a mural. Fabulous art in a bathroom is also fabulous! I also ditto all the previous comments suggesting you keep the blue fixtures to use elsewhere. The combo of the blue fixtures & the tile together, I thought, was awful. With proper colors in another bathroom could be awesome!!!
I thought it was another very interesting episode. I just don't understand the garden program. I see you digging and digging everywhere. If you blacken a piece of land (removing wild plants) then put a few chickens on that piece. The chickens clean up all the mess (weeds), they also fertilize your soil and you have eggs every day.
OK dat geklooi met die hamer & beitel,... in een grote klus als deze heb je zeker een sds boorhamer nodig! Die tegels, klein metselwerk, voegen, grote gaten boren 22mm+, diepe/lange gatenboren in die 50cm muur, je kan niet meer zonder. Neem wel een goede, minimaal een blauwe Bosch (Groene loop warm en kop slipt dan, voor 1 klein klusje ok) is goed of een Makita, of de toppers als je geld genoeg hebt; De Walt, Hilti, Milwaulkee. Dit is geen advies het is het verschil tussen moeilijk en makkelijk doen! Bik ze!
Gardening can be hard work for me, being older now. I do find using a wiper sniper to cut done over growth handy. Next time you go to the gardening store check it out. It will help. Also get some garden stakes as tomatoes will need to be tied and staked as they grow.
Oh, to be your age with working back and joints once again! Lol! Never mind, maybe in the next life! I adore eggplant! Cherry tomatoes are never a bad choice. The perfect snack food! The blue bathroom suite isn't bad, providing you new tile isn't a smokey grey/green! That and the red floor is a bit too colorful for a bathroom, in my opinion. Still, I know you'll make it beautiful.
You’re going to be up to your ears in vegetables when harvest time comes. It’s going to be lot more than you and your occasional guests can eat, so do you have plans for who to share the excess with?
Your garden is going to take you a long time as you are doing it bit by bit did you ever think to hire some equipment to turn over all the soil at once then it would be even. You have piiles of trees and earth what will you do with it all. I have to say it does look messy
I agree, there was absolutely nothing wrong with those tiles or bathroom fixtures, I realize they we're from the 80's but all that room needed was a good sanding to the ceiling and a deep clean, I'm glad to see some renovation mind you as the gardening is becoming a bit too much, but who am I to say on that aspect of the channel, these youngsters have green thumbs.
Mi chiedo perché tu abbia acquistato una villa che possiede già uno stile suo ben preciso, se poi la devi rovinare come stai facendo. La definirei un esempio unico e significativo dell’epoca in cui è stata costruita . Dispiace vedere distruggere prima la balaustra del grande terrazzo ed ora un bagno con accessori particolari e preziosi. Le cose fatte bene vanno conservate non peggiorate, specie con accessori moderni di seconda mano come hai detto di voler fare tu. Comunque ti auguro di trovare una soluzione efficace per attenuare il rumore di traffico proveniente da strada e autostrada e che sovrasta il canto degli uccellini del parco.

I agree. But I also think it looks very nice without a T-shirt😀
Am I the only person who loves the colour of that old blue bath suite hehe :o)

I agree those were top of the range fixtures, don't destroy them !!
I’ve seen all the videos and follow your progress. The Villa is gorgeous and I can’t wait to see it all done. The garden is also amazing. Well done! 😊
I know the advice is to lift with your legs and not with your back, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody do it so consistently before!😂
If you hurt your back you’ll regret latter, I’ve a back injury, I suffered for the last 20 years and surgery didn’t help at all.
You should seriously consider having a plant nursery once your villa is done. You look like you're really enjoying the gardening.👍
I learned a word "eggplant", thanks!

I think they are an attractive blue and would be good looking against a white tile or a pattern with that blue in them.
Interior designers would pay a fortune for that blue bath & sink here in the UK
In Italy too
Not in the UK when looking for a house if they see colored bathrooms they rip it out!
@@carolegray6835 They wouldn’t if they saw how expensive the bespoke coloured suits are in World of Interiors magazine.

I'm sure someone would love that blue bathroom suite Good lifting picking up the toilet 😉 Garden coming on well

Oh ………. You’re not getting rid of that lovely 1970s blue bathroom suite 😳
I think your plans for the bathroom are going to be great! A soothing place to relax and not stuck in the 70's /80's.
Love watching your videos keep them coming 🎉😊
Who needs a gym, when you work so hard. I wish you all the best bro.,

You need a power drill with jackhammer setting and bit.

still like those deep blue bathroom fixtures.......
Remember, baby vegetables are the best. Bigger is not better with vegetables!
Hey, Is it about time for another drone shot of your garden? Just to understand it all? Thanks much! Loving your journey still.
The garden is looking fantastic. Do you have a certain spot as a cold cellar for all the fruit and veggies. Will you be canning any of them??
Did you plan the blue shirt, in the blue bathroom 😆 Things are looking fertile in the garden, certainly won't go hungry this summer ❤
You’re doing such a great job. You work so hard.
I miss your girlfriend.
Gardening can be hard work for me, being older now. I do find using a wiper sniper to cut done over growth handy. Next time you go to the gardening store check it out. It will help. Also get some garden stakes as tomatoes will need to be tied and staked as they grow.
Allright!!!
I think you will have a lot of pickled onions and chutney if all you have planned do well this year 🤞😅Ann🏴
Great to watch you planting👍
Oh, to be your age with working back and joints once again! Lol!
Never mind, maybe in the next life! I adore eggplant! Cherry tomatoes are never a bad choice. The perfect snack food!
The blue bathroom suite isn't bad, providing you new tile isn't a smokey grey/green! That and the red floor is a bit too colorful for a bathroom, in my opinion. Still, I know you'll make it beautiful.
The plants are too close to one another. They need more space.
Perhaps they will be thinned out in a month or so?
You’re going to be up to your ears in vegetables when harvest time comes. It’s going to be lot more than you and your occasional guests can eat, so do you have plans for who to share the excess with?
✨🌞✨
Baobob tree grows in Africa, Madagascar and Australia, not Italy, it gets too cold. Ditto on the bamboo, not a good idea.
Your garden is going to take you a long time as you are doing it bit by bit did you ever think to hire some equipment to turn over all the soil at once then it would be even. You have piiles of trees and earth what will you do with it all. I have to say it does look messy
Tomatoes are planted 100cm x 50cm apart. You planted the plants too densely!
Cobalt blue bath fixtures....VERY 60's Italian!
What are your new neighbours like
ik zag dat ook een ginkgo geplant hebt hebt.
1
Looks like a pressed steel bath, not cast iron !! ?
zag ik een brabantse vlag bij je thuis
I missed the "Killin It" part....
while everything is so nice, why to remove?

My family and I love watching your videos, you have a beautiful villa and a lot of hard work ahead ,but with your work ethic it will look amazing.😊
Why don't you buy a small garden tiller like Mantis makes. You are doing far too much physical labor. Oh, and get a better shovel.
Your back looks seriously sun burnt. Please use the sun block:-)))
HILTI? 😅

Non sarebbe meglio tagliare l’erba? Tu non vuoi che I semi dell’erbacce vadano nell’orto no? Solo una domanda non una critica.
no reason to keep the tiles. they ugly
