    Anyone seen the lady on the same boat in tears worried about her abilities a bit back? Guess she sold the boat as the one that has it now seems to take everything in her stride with a pretty good finish with a more than a happy smiley face. Seems they have the same partner as well? All very strange. Keep it up you, as it is all coming together nicely and both of you have a great New Year

    You’ve done a great job of the Fireplace, impressive.
    Sailed past your boat a couple of times in September, paint job and new windows look really good. Keep going you’re nearly there and doing it to such a high standard.
    Always look forward to your Vlogs.

    regards to the grout in the corner, use a plastic zip lock bag, one gallon size, add mixed grout, then cut small piece of corner off and use like a pastry bag and squeeze into corner, then use small wet sponge to force excess grout until you have a clean line
    should work fairly easy

  • @stefaniekitsune3657

    You could also try piping the grout into the corner like icing. Just nip the corner off a ziploc/sandwich bag.

    You are doing a great job and the tiles look great but be careful with grout I did a mosaic course and the person running it said we should wear rubber gloves, eye protection and a mask when grouting as it is very toxic. It's very interesting watching your videos thank you for posting 😊

    Great progress! But you have me worried, I see you have ear protection but no safety glasses? Industrial deafness takes a good few years but eyes are lost in a split second.😢 Anything with a spinning blade can shatter or throw off a tooth, no second chances. Screwfix have a great range starting at a couple of quid. You don't want to start out boat life looking like a pirate!!😂
