    So my wife asks if im watching the pallet cabin build again and I pointed out it's the same people but a different farm and building. She needs to keep up 😂 Take a day or two off and recover remember when something is not right in the body its your body giving you a clue to look after it.

    Lovely home for the chicks, guys. Andrea, what a reward for your hatching efforts as they now flutter in their new home.
    Spot of pleurisy! Geepers, Nick! Glad you asked the FOGiesand Miguel to
    come and help. To much heavy working for your recovery needs.
    At least the air looks dry, if not dusty. Love the innovation you continue to demonstrate: moving the cement mix. And the 1001 things you do with pallets. And the dogs are easy supervisors/formen.
    The various animals families' residences are positively palatial!
    And now Nick, you are very fashionably T-shirted. What a Great week and video! Thank you...

    Have you tried the destructodor blade on the strimmer for those brambles - that chainsaw looks heavy compared to the harness. What I hate about the stuff is that it spreads when you use the tractor chains but we are finally on top of it but that is with 2 strimmers and the tractor. Have an awesome week guys with this rain we will be doing it all again.

    Lots of respect for two very hard working people. So worried about the pleurisy report. I’ve had it, very debilitating. Please wear a good mask when dealing with old rotten dusty animal habitats and also construction dust. So hard to watch you tubers endangering their health. I made all of the mistakes of too little protection and regrettably paid the price. Live your life guys and want to see you enjoying the results of all your hard work.
    Bless you for teaching the youngsters, your efforts to help each other are more than a construction project, you are teaching future generations how to coincide peacefully in the world, beautiful, love thy neighbor in action.❤
