Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 07. 2024
- Willie, Sarah and their dog, Jack Spaniels, continue their biggest adventure yet - leaving their suburban life and moving over the sea to 'Live The Skye Life'!
In this episode, the Skyelifers manage to put out a video despite Willie coming down with the dreaded Covid!!
Fortunately, we had plenty of footage already filmed - so you can watch as we forage for wild mushrooms right outside our cottage and put our found fish boxes to good use with an up cycling project in the shed.
Thanks & see you in the next video!

Loved your video again, collecting mushrooms, and attempting to cross the water, which you did successfully, well done! The shed storage is looking great! With all the fish boxes sorted out now! Great job William! You are just so good at turning your hand to anything, Sarah as well! Both working so hard! Love it!!xx😃
ive heard rumours that the naked rambler:Stephen Gough - ‘The Naked Rambler’ - is making his way towards Skye this week. The midgies will be having a blood feast on his dangly sausage!!
Hello 👋 found your esty shop ! Ready to do christmas shopping 🛍 your artwork is absolutely fantastic x
I love Skye and so it seems natural that that I love your channels ... reminds me so much of the time I've spent in Scotland, especially on Skye! Gotta say that I'm hoping you'll be back, Sarah, with more "She Walks, She Paints.'' There is so much to see and paint on that amazing island.
Glad Willie is better
Sweet to see how Jack is sitting next to Willie, helping him to recover!
Get well soon, Willie, and Sarah, you did a great job on the video all alone!
Feel better soon,Willie. And Sarah hope don’t get sick.
"Well I think it will be OK." Not what you want to hear when collecting mushrooms.😂
Well done Sarah for holding the fort, editing and uploading this weeks episode whilst attending to poor Willie. It just shows this evil Covid is still out there infecting folk at random. Pity it doesn't seem to bother midges!! Get well soon Willie.
Get well soon, Willie! Sarah, you're doing a great job keeping things moving along and taking care of a sick man. God bless you both!
Hope Willie is feeling well now. Love your channel. You all brighten my day, when I watch I know I will have a laugh and it is never boring. Thank you all!
That shot @26:31 of Willie and Jack walking home to the cottage is a fantastic representation of what you two have achieved. It's a classic dream of mine and countless others. Walking home in your wellies with the mushrooms you've picked yourself, your faithful dog in tow headed home to the warm and cozy cottage, followed by that fantastic pan to the sunlight on the mountainside. I mean, that is truly a beautiful life. Hope you get well soon. Cheers!
Oh poor Willie. I hope you recover really soon
Oh poor Willie. Love and hugs to you. Get well verrrrrry soon!! 😀xxx
💚🧡💜Willie! Lost Boys was filmed in my hometown of Santa Cruz, CA, in 1985 when I was a senior at Santa Cruz High School! If you slow down the first scene when it's dark, flying up to the Boardwalk, you can see the bonfire on the beach where me and my friends were partying! We were watching this helicopter flying back and forth all night, wondering why the Boardwalk was all lit up (since it was winter and the off-season). Then, when the movie was released, we all flipped out cuz we made film history! And now I'm watching YOU, WATCHING LOST BOYS, 38 years later!!! So META!! Hahaha 💜🧡💚
Amazing! We will look out for it next time we watch 😀
Delightful as usual. Get well Willie. Great job on the shelves and repurposing the fish boxes. 🎉 Hey Jack Spaniels ❤
Get well soon Willie 🙏🏻 keep safe Sarah 🙏🏻🇿🇦🏴❤️
Here's a bit of a laugh from me in Alaska hoping it gives willy a smile , I went fishing on our fishing boat I slipped and fell overboard into the cold Alaskan waters took 6 guys to pull me out . my cell and other stuff went to stay at Davy Jones's locker. when I got back to the dock I seen Cornelius Marie crab boat from the Deadliest catch not having my phone any longer I just got mad lol then had to order a new phone but lost all my passwords so new password and login for CZcams... sorry about covid. Feel better soon!
Argh nightmare! Glad you were ok though 😊
@livingtheskyelife its funny now lol maybe Becouse I was glad I could float hah thank you, yes, peachy now. Hope Willy gets better quickly....
@livingtheskyelife my catch of the day was 4 halibut , 12 coho's , 2 kings, and a codhog. wish you had picture vision. I hope my fishing stories are giving you a little smile while not feeling well... 😊
Hey Willie, Sarah, and Jack!! Did that package of peanut brittle arrive yet? Get better!! Peanut brittle has magical powers...
Hello!! Yes it did, thanks so much! It’s lovely and we’ve both been snacking on it 😊
@@livingtheskyelife excellent! Let me know if you need a top up!!!
@@livingtheskyelifeSarah, I hope you are aware of the fact that having a vaccination does not make you immune to getting the virus. It only makes the symptoms less severe so it's still very important for everyone. That's not sick to wear a mask around. The person who is. It is now been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the virus is transmitted through droplets, most of which are invisible. So it is still very important to always wear a mask around someone who has the virus.
when i had covid in January, i binge watched "She Walks,She Paints" and to this day i have a special place in my heart for u two and Willie's music.
Aww thanks so much! Whatever it takes to get you through the illness 😊
Well done Willie on tidying up the shed hope you make a speedy recovery from COVID and Sarah stays safe
Yea, another Sunday adventure with my favorite family! Be well from washington state USA ❤️ covid advice for Willie: sleep sitting up if you have trouble breathing and suck ricola dual action cough drops to prevent coughing spells that can bruise your lungs. Great time to cuddle up with Jack spaniels and catch up on some reading!
Nothing like a good mushroom hunt. I look forward to seeing more hunts. Thanks for sharing.
The Shed Fish Box Shelves are GOALS! Putting things in the boxes and on the shelves is one thing. But actually being able to walk up and get those things out of the boxes on the shelves is a whole nother kettle of fish. Fantastic 🩷
Oh no !!! 10 days you will be right as rain.
Get well soon Willie.
The shelves are wonderful. I really like how you reuse and recycle!
Praying for a quick and full recovery, Willie!! Listen to Sarah. She knows what she's talking about!💜
Get well soon Willie, I've had that myself it's NO fun so take care. And you Sarah look after yourselves and especially that gorgeous boy Jack. 🐾💞💞💞
The shed came out great. You can put the bikes up on hooks to get them up off the floor if you wanted at least during the winter. You can label the outside of the bins so you know exactly what’s in them to make them more efficient. Sarah the end was priceless! At least Willy hasn’t lost his sense of humor. I hope that he is feeling much better by now. You guys are going to have to make a bridge to go over the river. Love from me.💜🤗🫶😎🐬🇺🇸
Oh what brilliant timing! Having dreadful day and seeing you three is the tonic i need .x
I hope the evening is better😊
@@carolwoodward6141 thank you for kind comment. Been manic week. Mother in law emergency admission and trying to also care for her housebound husband. Bit like juggling a muslin bag of tiger cubs 😁
@@lizthompson9653 I was care giver for my late husband for 3 years. I can relate. Try to get some sleep.💕
Hope Willie feels much better soon…..and Sarah 🤞that you stay COVID free 🙂👋
Take care of yourself Willie! Covid isn't something to take lightly, but at least it's not as threatening as it was a few years ago; hoping that Sarah doesn't get it. Have a good week. (from Sandi)
Get well quickly, Willie. And don't rush to do lots of stuff immediately afterwards! I love the shelves, and the foraging, and the wade across the water. Greetings as usual from South Devon by the sea. No midges here!
Another fantastic episode 👍🍻👍🍻🍺.. Great how nature sends you gifts by sea, like it knows you will use.. Brilliant. The colours all around the cottage and inside is on an other level, sorry to hear Willie's not well, nothing a hot toddy won't destroy, and can almost taste the mushrooms, and as a chef retired,... I did not know salt does that to mushrooms, everyday a school day ehh😂😂?!!... Imagine with cream and a ribeye boom!!.. Sarah looks positively glowing and seems nothing fazes the lassie 👍👍🥂.. Jack spaniels is quite simply... Jack.. If you were a box set I would be super chuffed. Thanks again guys get well, stay safe, and live the skye life.. Which I am no longer allowed to sing.. I am now singing rosy and Jim 😂😂🏴🏴🏴 cheers, Rab. ®️®️🥃
Willie should be proud of his shelves. Instead of chaos, it's now organized chaos. So much better!
Awww soz you are I’ll hope by now you are much better lovely that Jack giving you love and company packed vlog well done Sarah going it alone all the best to all three tc now theoldies🤗🤗🤗🤗
Fish boxes look like they would be great filled with compost for growing veg.
Get well soon Willie.
Mushrooms on toast, yum, my favourite breakfast.
Take care 🙂
Hope Willie feels better soon. Great work on the shed shelves for use with the fish boxes. It's so wonderful that you can go mushroom hunting right cross the river.
Hope you get well soon fella, BUT on the upside no singing the dogs will love it🎉
Hope you're on the mend Willie. Teamwork is making your dream work.😊
Bless you brother,may you recover soon.
Feel better soon Willie. Hugs to Jack from my Wilson and Bailey! Sarah you are awesome!!!
I hope Willie is feeling much better now. Good job in building the shelves, lots of room now. How awesome to harvest mushrooms you can eat. How sweet of Jack keeping Willie company.
I do love adventures that end well, now for getting your health back! Thank you for getting out a video anyway 🤩
Sorry about your illness, Willie. I trust Doctor Sarah and Doctor Jack Spaniels are taking good care of you.
Love the framed picture of Hugh F-W 😂
I hope you feel better fast Willie! Good job Sarah taking care of the boys!
You Two are so Cute. So is Jack Spaniels.
Willie, I hope you feel better soon . The fish box shelves look great! ❤
I do appreciate that you are willing to share your Covid experiences. It feels like people are now unwilling to say they have the virus which is such a shame. We need to take care of each other - that is the only way through this thing. I so enjoy watching your adventures. Best wishes for a speedy recovery from Seattle.
The mushrooms on toast looked delicious! Foraging is so satisfying. I love that you are putting those found fishing crates to good purpose. Feel better, Willie!
Another great video. Love the picture of Hugh on the wall. The man’s a legend.
I love to hear you speak, Willie! Get well soon. Don’t get up til you’re completely well because you can relapse and you don’t have the strength to fight. Believe me I know. I went into pneumonia because I didn’t wait to be completely well.
Willie, I hope you feel much better soon. Wonderful to see you foraging for mushrooms and it is interesting that you mention "Hedgehog" mushrooms because I just heard of them earlier today. Shed shelves look good and sturdy to hold all your stuff. Thanks Sarah, take care of Jack and Willie and have a great week.
Glad to hear that Willie is on the mend.
❤ inspirational thank you after a wet day in the woods! ❤
Lost Boys! Great choice. Get well soon. Water, paracetamol and rest. Grosse Point Blank next!
Such a great movie 😅
Sarah, you are a saint 😂 Willie seldom plans anything, just jumps in. Would drive me crazy 🤪😜. Hope he feels much better soon.
Haha yes he does! But he usually ends up pulling it off, so I can’t get too annoyed at him 😅
Feel better soon Willie. Thank you for another great video Sarah, and hi Jack ❤
Get well Willie. Good hosting Sarah.
Get well soon Willie hope you feel better soon . This was a good video your shed is looking great and love the new shelves. I hope you stay covid free Sarah xxx
Did a good job on your shelves😊 But I think the amount of stuff you’ve got it looks like you’re now ready for yet another shed😮😮
Sarah you amaze me….how do you stay so patient? Hope Willie is better soon as Covid can leave you so tired and hope you dont succumb.🏴
I can’t be too annoyed at his various “projects” as they usually turn out great 😅
@@livingtheskyelife Love Sundays and your videos…you are both so talented and clever and match each other beautifully. 🏴
Hello Willie & Sarah, I hope Willie gets better soon. My wife used to live on Mull & Ulva as a young girl. This year we are visiting Skye as we need to climb up to the old man of storr and visit a few places on the island. We will be in our VW campervan with our Beagle Dog so much of our visit will be what to do on the day. Keep up your videos they are brilliant the content is always spot on. 🙂
Sarah, you did a terrific job doing this yourself. 👍 Willie, I hope you are feeling better soon. Love seeing Jack right by your side. The shelves look great! See you next week. 🙂
Get better soon you x
Hope you feel better soon Willie .... Sarah you take care ...
Feel better, Captain Willie. Fantastic video. Sarah and Jack Spaniels did a fine job while the Captain recovered.
Feel better sooner than later Willie and Sarah stay safe 🙏. Be good to each other and always remember life is not a race, but you do you do need a clear road to move on. Partners both need to approve of the map. Peace not pieces to you both.
Now i want mushroom soup. I hope you feel better soon Willie. You have 2 wonderful nurses looking after you. X
Haha us too - but we prefer it made with cep mushrooms 😋
Oh no! Covid! So sorry for you Willie 🤢😷 On the bright side you got to sit and watch awesome films like The Lost Boys......you have good taste! Those mushrooms looked good, thanks for the tips on cooking them. 😀💖x
Sending positive vibes so Willie can get better soon! We hope he's well on the road to recovery.

Feel better Willie! Good job Sarah!

❤Luv ya bunches, Sarah, Willie and Jack Spaniels ❤

Everyday cant be a hubbly jubbly day......Get well wishes sent you way. This too shall pass Sarah and you and Mr. Jack Daniels will get a break. Love you guys.
A Big well Done Sarah love xxx glad Willi doing little better x.
Hej ! If you put the mushrooms in a not so hot pan at first (without oil or butter) and let it become a"soup"), then you let the soupwater boil away, and after that you fry them in butter just as you did. The soup-thing makes eventual poison go away, in Sweden we do it will all types of mushrooms, because you never know if the mushroom has been growing on a spot where there has been oilwaste from a boat or something else that is no good. Mushrooms can even be used as cleaner organisms on very contaminated areas, as you probably know already😊 Thank you for being such honest people and for all your videos ❣
Living the Skye Life is my absolute favorite channel on CZcams. Get well, stay safe!
Aww thanks so much!!
Get well soon Willie! Hope you don’t catch it Sarah! Thankyou for another great episode. X
Poor Willie! Glad he’s on the mend. Good job on repurposing the fish boxes!
All the best for a quick recovery Willie.
Shelving cool, mushrooms cool, horses by the river.....very cool, Covid....not cool!!. Hope you get better soon Willie and back on your feet although Lost boys is a good watch.
Willie hope you are soon feeling much better. Nurse's Sarah and Jack are doing a splendid job. Sarah praying you don't get sick. Take care and get better.
Good job with the ending. Don't be embarrassed. ❤
Get better soon Willie, and good for Sarah for holding the fort. Our daughter never got it even though she looked after us, so hope it will be the same for you! Take care! Nice storage shelves, Willie!
Get Well soon Willie!!
We live in Angus and have found heaps of chanterelles this year. It's a good mushroom season.. but no hedgehogs yet sadly. I agree, they taste the best 👌
Ahh we are hoping to find some good chanterelle spots here on Skye. We have a few places on the mainland, but haven’t had a chance to get to them yet!
Please be patient and take care. Covid recovery takes awhile. I do enjoy watching you three. I live in Colorado high desert.
Great shelving idea for all the shed bits and bobs and I bet the mushrooms were delicious. I really hope that you are all better now Willie, as Covid is horrible!
Sarah(UK) Grand Job. (Willie Covid not good(Sarah keep Safe)The Lost Boys one of my All Time FavouritesX). Man Time & Midges not a good combo!!!!!!!. Be Safe Jack too
