it's always lovely to see how you are getting on and you sure are! thank you for sharing :)

The guys who grinded back the bricks probably gonna have an early death from silica dust from the concrete

Well, when you show in your report of everything that has been done in such a really short period of time, it is amazing! Well done!!

I'm exhausted just listening - good luck

Very beautiful work being done on the property ❤

Huge undertaking, what courage . Bravo . It's going to be fantastic when it's finished. ❤❤❤❤❤

So much has been done, but so much to do. It will be amazing when you get this finished, but we will enjoy the journey with you through that process.

The old station is in very capable hands. The brickwork with the black mortar looks grand. I am looking forward to the next phase in your renovation.

Love following your journey but I’m sorry the music pierces my brain . Some thing gentle would be nice ❤️💙🇬🇧

It's nice to see you begining phase three!! As always, thanks for taking us along.

You've done a lot. Would be great for plans to go smoothly, but are flexible. You come across unexpected things which usually cost a lot of money, then there are the trades etc. just stick to what you want and don't compromise, even if it takes a bit longer and you have to find the funds, just stick to your vision. Nothing worse than just making do, you'll never be happy and probably revisiting in the future which will be more expense and disruption.

Thanks for taking us back in time. Sure has been great watching. It goes to show how much work is involved. " Not quick sticks ". When finished. It's going to look stunning. Happiness is. Old Station/ Revamp Home. Regards 🇿🇦.

Great summary in this video, looking forward to the next update.

It is amazing that you and Gill have made so much progress given that you both have full time jobs, two daughters, and you’re also creating time-consuming KZbin content. Cheers to you both!

Wow. They're like brick hygienists.

PLAN IS BEAUTIFUL

You must be very confident for the future , so you must have a great guaranteed income and not concerned that you'd be getting into a lot of debt and unable to pay for it

Keep going.

I can't count either so this is not anything other than, what phase are you on? Lots of work on the outside, lovely gardens and a shed, lovely 2nd hand mobile home, pointing could have been better. They used angle grinders so now all the brickwork is rounded. If they couldn't have scraped it out by hand, there was nothing wrong with it. It will be weather proof I am sure but they stuffed it up in terms of the finish. Out buildings are doing well, what phase is, get the house done so you can move in? Having worked on many refurbishments, the interior is always 1st consideration followed by, is the exterior good enough to start with said interior? If not, then it is usually the roof. Replace the entire roof, don't run out of money before that has been done and never start on a garden or outbuildings just in case. Do you have a bottomless pit of money are is this YT channel paying so well you don't have to consider money ? This all seams a little backwards to me having spent my entire working career taking care of very elderly and in some cases, ancient British buildings Grade II and I. No name and no face just like the rest here, I don't need the attention. I honestly hope you end up with the dream home you desire but having said that, you should have already moved in and phase 2 would be the surrounds, garden, outbuildings, etc. I am also a TROLL Don't believe a word I ever say Good luck

What an undertaking, we think you and Gil are quite amazing!

"Some sort of bush growing up through the roof." English Ivy....Hedera helix....the bane of every Stately Home throughout the UK. Yes, the leaves are different. Up at the top, the foliage is the Adult form, where it Blooms, Sets Seed, And The Seeds SPROUT...which is how it goes from "pretty bits of green on a red brick wall" to "the jungle is running for its life and the ivy will catch up by spring!" Horrible stuff, now outlawed in several states!

Started to look amazing all of you have worked so hard, but when finished it will be so beautiful take care xx

I think I would have used red mortar on the Accrington brick and stone buff colour on the common brick

You never feel like you've done much until you look back and see just how things have changed. You have a caravan to live in so can take your time. I dont know if you have problems with waiting on decent builders? I know lots of people who are. Going around rectifying work that bad builders have done arount London and Kent areas.

Been following you and your husband since the beginning of this project and can’t wait for phase 3. Cheers.

May i give you many congratulations,, on the work on station, in the past 6 months great progress every thing is so good happy day ahead and you are giving such love to this fine building one has to live your life with all the projects going on so respect to you and your family ❤❤❤

#1 would be my choice of the first four....

Knock off the loud rock music! It’s a distraction!

Thanks for sharing this recap, you have accomplished an incredible transformation to this point. Looking forward to seeing your next chapter. Wishing you and your family a blessed autumn filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings together with family and furry kids. Peace

.... I love Buddy .....

I enjoyed the review and really appreciate the realistic and hard-nosed planning you've done for Phase 3. I love this series. I hope you'll entertain the concept of inviting subscribers and patrons to book visits when the job is complete. I would love to come here for a getaway with my wife.

You have done a lot already , it's a big undertaking but will be worth it when it's done .

👏🏻👏🏻

The brickwork is beautiful. Your doing an amazing job of sticking to the goals. It takes time and patience but eventually you will be reaping the rewards. If you rush its easier to make mistakes :)

I agree with the brick work is beautiful. That is one job that was worth it. They men who did it wow true craftsman.

Will look lovely once done.

I have been watching the growth with wrapped interest…every bit

I worried about the dogs..thank you for sharing your plans

Exciting to see allllll your work and how far you've come! Best!

Horrendous music selection.

Thank you for the recap and overview. It is so exciting to be this close to the structural steel replacement, though watching that process may be pretty nerve-wracking. Being able to re-use original materials for the roof patches will be great. If they put new slates on the outbuildings, at least it will look the best if they aren't so close together because of color differences. When planning and executing a big project, being flexible is key, though sometimes very hard.

I love the clerestory windows and if you can score stained glass that would add a stunning look. The station IMHO would look terrific with the addition of retractable canvas awnings.

You've accomplished so much already; I cannot wait to see phase 3!

Structure needs are first nothing else matters if structure fails. Looking forward for that.

Enormous makeover. 🔈WOW🇬🇧🌹

You have worked in such a thoughtful manner with the property. You have completed an amazing amount of work. Congratulations for completing projected jobs.

What's the blue pipe that's snaking around the out building for?

Did you ever find out who cut your trees down at the bridge ?

This is remarkable clear-headed planning. I am so pleased you can summarise everything in this way and look forward to those steel girders going in without a hitch.

Great recap of what has been done in the past 6 months. Phase 3 will be a giant step towards getting moved in.
