    Just love you both, you are always very happy hard workers and are making a big difference on your farm, your plants are thriving it must be from all the love, sun and rain, I can't believe how fast things grow there. Really looking forward to those little chickens arriving. It will be great for you to have some help with your new kitchen next week. Lots of love from Australia xxx

    Another amazing adventure on "Simple Life Portugal", starring the famous water dog, Guffy!♥️

    Lovely video this week! I think the wire "shelf" is wise. If you want a more substantial one, an old oven rack would work. See you next week!

    Nice to see your dog loving his swim my dog hates water as apup he tripped over a large stone and his head went under the water even if it rains he won't go out unless he is desperate for a wiggle lol

    • @portugalitis
      @portugalitis  Před 2 měsíci

      Ahhh bless him :( when Guffy was swimming first time I made sure he done it him self as I read that if you make them or push them then they might be scared of water in a future .. Guffy is a beaver he is water dog xxx

    Another productive week! I think most of us after lunch are somewhat reluctant to resume work! Was just a little sceptical as to how the wire mesh would work, but having seen it I think it’s a pretty good fix, the air will circulate around what ever is on that shelf.
    Guffy certainly enjoys the water, he’s quite at home in his own mini swimming pool!❤

    • @portugalitis
      @portugalitis  Před 2 měsíci

      Hello Rosemary !!! I didn't like wire mesh idea as well ;) but it does work and I did put ply wood on top of it :) :) Guffy is water dog he just loves to swim xx Have a nice week G

    Gierdre, what do you feed your strawberries, they are lovely. Mamma hen, is doing a good job! When you and Andrius look at your old life in the UK, compared to your life in Portugal, although there is a lot of hard work that is constant, the rewards are many! You both are hard working and determined to make this your best life!

    • @portugalitis
      @portugalitis  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Hello Suzanne :) I just gave some sheep manure to strawberries. we are so happy that we made the move and it's so much better here ... I can't imagine going top work and doing same thing ever again ... in here it's harder physical and mentally sometimes but it so much better for us and for our pets and animals :)

    The poultry in your toilet, reminded me of my school holidays on my Aunt`s farm. The earth closet was across the yard, and hens were often in there!. She strung sqauares of newspaper instead of toilet paper. This was in the early nineteen fifties.

    • @portugalitis
      @portugalitis  Před 2 měsíci

      hello !! that's what our grandparents did ... used newspaper instead of toilet paper .. when you think now it is a luxury to have toilet paper ;)

    • @portugalitis
      @portugalitis  Před 2 měsíci

      me toooo I like strawberries ..but i am just thinking ahead as I will use them with our Sunday pancakes for breakfast .... the little jar of jam costs nearly 5 euros .. so just had to make some my own :) We do eat some as well ... I can't resist

  • @user-ln7xi3eu4p

    The repeated introduction of your videos saying why you decided to move to Portugal has outlived its purpose and is tedious and boring and now spoiling your video submissions. Would suggest that you consider removing it in future.

    • @portugalitis
      @portugalitis  Před 2 měsíci +3

      Ahhh what a shame ... I love it ... just reminds me every single time how much we done through this year and how lucky we are .. then we will be ready we will change it, Giedre
