So glad to see someone else grunt or whatever when tools dont work as they should.
Good work this week , a lot accomplished and an interesting video visit . 👍
Thanks Jean 🙂
Hazel ☘️
Very brave man … those wasps scare me from 30 feet away … so we’ll done !
🙏☘️😘
Thanks Hazel, i was worried up there! 🙂
Love your content you sir in my eyes you are modern day MacGyver .
That's very kind, thank you 🙂
@@FontedaPipaPortugueseFarmLife no thank you for all the knowledge you share
Nice progress I bet you’re glad the queen wasn’t home Just keep in mind in a couple years you will have to clean the grill due to the buildup 👍now it’s time to take care of that nest that was in your tree🍻🍻👍✌️🤙❤️🇵🇹❤️
for sure! but would rather clean the grills than deal with those nasty wasps again. I am going to wrap the tree with cling film instead of what was recommended, filling the trunk with expanding foam 🙄.
Have a good week John👍🍻
👍🍀
Good Times down on the farm.
Hoorah! You survived. I survived watching you survive. Glad the Asiatic wasps nest is gone, now all you have to worry about is monkeypox.
Toppers 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good thing you're not scared of heights!
Pressure washing makes a world of difference. 😀
We have all been putting it off for ages 😂🙂
Hell of a big job on the engine! And on the roof is pretty scary too. But it's all fixed again as usual :)
Poor Oli has to wait 4 weeks for the new part as only available from Japan🙄 but he was very lucky and should be a good truck when finished.
Alex, where did you aquire all your skills from? So skilled! Wish I had a partner or friend so skilled...
Alex, do you have a brother as skilled as you? :-)
Just life Mary and having to get on, fix it or go without. I owned a large garage and body repair shop for most of my life....... and yes i have a brother 😜😄
😀
🌟👍🍀💐
There's never an idle day on the farm. You certainly can get things done. I live in a rural area.(Nova Scotia) I often encounter farm machinery of some sort going from a to b. They bounce like crazy while going down the road. I suspect the tires are filled with air.🙂👍👍👍
They probably have water and also using huge machinery which makes tractors bounce down the road.
Have a great week ahead 🙂
Another very busy and interesting week on the farm! Ollie and Yana are certainly learning all about the ins and outs of farm life, while being extremely helpful. They will be experts by the time they have their own
Thanks Christine 🙂
Olá amigos. Muito bem, a chaminé assim protegida não entra mais nada lá para dentro e vocês estão mais bem tranquilos! Um abraço e uma boa semana para vocês.
Um abraço e uma boa semana para você 🙂🇵🇹❤
Hi Alex and Co. Wasps nests I hate....the grills look amazing and worth every penny. A job well done as usual that will last the test of time. Sorry about the jeep, in good hands with Alex,the machine wizard. Pipes and leaks all sorted now. Goats having a good pedi, on going job. It's heating up so fast this year 41 for me at the min,no cloud or rain. Why do you put water in the tyres? Stay safe everyone, thanks for sharing.
Those wasps freak me out.
Yep! me too!🙂
What a couple of weeks you had. Achieved so much. The OCD in me wanted to see that all the Nest was gone..🐝🐝🐝To think In Molly's room scary. Alex doing a Roof highwire act on Friday 13th...no fear😅🥰
Thanks Anna, yes i dont like being on the roof at all, no fear, i hid it well 😂 and also wish i had got all the nest down as there is still a lot in there but it is slowly falling apart and bits coming out, shame as would have been great to see a nest that big.🙂
@@FontedaPipaPortugueseFarmLife Yes! Both my husband and Dad fell whilst doing high ladder work..one fractured his spine the other his skull...and lived to tell the stories . The ingenious solution of the Mesh was worth it🥰
Ouch that was lucky the both recovered, i have fractured my neck/spine before and dont wish to repeat it🙂
Too bad you don't have a drain snake and esp one that fits a camera on it..then you could see wherever the end of the drain snake goes...might be fun to have just to look in any holes, see what's in there...
I have one of those Mary and they're brilliant, not too expensive either.
sounds like a good idea. although i was worried about our new camera falling down the chimney😄
Watch out for filming in shade...it's a bit hard to see...that's where the ring light would be helpful...or a work lamp...
We have a light for our camera now. but the camera and my video editing program are new to me so i am learning as i go. 🙂
Hello best to have an inner tube in tractor with a sleave between tube and tube
A little aboriginal enginuity. 😃
Wouldn't lighting a small fire cure the wasp problem in the chimney?
No we did it before with long sticks up the chimney, it is right at the top of the chimney so the flames don't burn it just smoke it. Now they shouldn't be able to get back 🙂
Querrey have I missed something who is ollie?
Oli has been with us for over a month now, him and hos lovely wife Jana have been staying with us and helping us around the farm.
