👍👍

It’s good that your builder put the ‘pugs’ separate the re-bars from the soils. ❤️🇹🇭❤️🇹🇭❤️🇹🇭

Cool! Where’s your place at Paul?

Looking good paul 😂

Aye that was Spot On. 😂0 pounds, and 39pence 😂😂😂 as Gaz would say 😂😂😂

Please show us how to make well fired rolls!

There is no pork in traditional Lorne sausage.

Iam intressting to read and see here

Thank you for documenting the entire build! House is great, your patience is fantastic

No stupid comment here. Great job, building a house is a challenge. Building a house in Thailand is a big challenge as it isnt a westernized construction method. Forget the haters, those old farangs are busibodies. F m

Similar building construction to my house in mexico. That house isnt going snywhere

Looks like you have roughly 2 rai. I will check out your other videos.

The camera is great

That was fast work indeed. Good workers. Nice upload.

Nice hole 😂

Exciting times. Can't wait to see the final results

Hi Paul, you really have achieved a lot in a relatively short time, I am looking forward to seeing this progressing, we have just filled up land we are going to build on but have to wait another rainy season till we can start building.

Very interesting

I’ve been through all this, what’s the build cost on the pool only? I’ve got loads and loads of advice

Have you considered a covered area for people to get out of the sun? After I did mine, I had to go ahead and build one. In hindsight, I should have extended it over the pool a bit just to get out of the sun, and as you know, Thais don't like too much sun. anyway, it's all looking good dying to see it all finished.

Progressing well buddy, you must be pleased?

Why is there no hydrostatic relief valve in the pool base?

The Thai workers do a great job especially in this humidity and heat with the sun beating down on them , what they accomplished on their first day was a great effort, they rocked up measured out the area for the pool then had the hole dug out also had the soil spread out around the yard , then they also managed to do the reo-bar in readiness for the concrete first thing in the morning. I hope at the end of the day they were offered a Chang or two to wet their whistles and of course one or two for the supervisor. :P PS: What made you choose a fiber glass pool compared to an above-ground pool , vinyl-lined pool or a concrete pool in-ground.

👍

What size is the pool

Hope you painted the out side of the wall, everybody will see that 😅😉

Hi Paul any planning permission needed for the flats/rooms/houses?

A resort or 3 wee granny flats for family members to stay,sorry I must have missed your vlog when you were telling us about your resort idea . Why did you not try a spray paint gun to paint the walls and have it all done in 1/4 of the time , bought cheap on Lazada , which means of course less time in the sun. :P Is there many tourists up that way that would make a resort a good investment ? I may be moving to Mukdahan early in 2025 so would like to drop in for a wee visit on the way but will wait and see what eventuates over the next few months.

Geez paul the sun loves you 😢

👍👍

DJI looks and sounds good. Will be following the build.

Always good to see all what is going on cheers Phil in sydney.

Greetings! Where about in Thailand 🇹🇭 are you? We’re planning to buy a property for our retirement. You have a nice location there.

Watch out with too much concrete and big walls not very good in the rainy season

On the canoeing i was a canoeing instructor in the uk army but i do alot of adventures myself the next is camper tent on pick up with the bike as well

From micks thai travels , wish you well on your endeavour is it worth it Is this what YOU really want seen so many people try these sort of things and it really ties you down into an area It ties you down to seeing this marvellous country and others, done many resorts on my channel and you can check that out, but as i said i know these are cheap to build and to run but the takings are small as well Do alot round the mekong area its near to me here in issan and i really like the mekong Could have a chat was in construction in the uk see what you think

Hi Paul, video quality and sound was very good, have you looked at sealing the walls before painting I stops staining and you also use less paint as the walls don't soak it up. It is basically P VA glue watered down you can buy it at do home. Try and keep all pipes where accessable especially if there is joints if under concrete its a nightmare to repair if you h as have leaks. Good idea to have a tap in the pump room as you might need for mixing chemicals I fitted one just outside use it a lot. Good luck with the rest of the build.

Good luck with the build

Picture and sound is great

Good to see you back brother

Starting to take shape mate. If ground level higher on field side, may be worth while using a tanking slurry to hold back lateral pressure. Can chat more at weekend.

Hi I saw on several other KZbin videos a very good tip on how to avoid the black streaks down the inside of all your walls after it is repainted. Dig out a small trench about 12-18 inches from the base of the wall and fill the trench with stones 2 to 3 inches in size. After any heavy rain / fon toc this helps with drainage and all of the dirt splash back onto the wall dirtying the paint. This will prevent almost all of the marks. A private house owner and You Tuber posted this useful tip. I myself certainly would give it a try. Ps make sure your trench is slightly sloping away from your car port and house. Good Luck Roy from Hamilton in Scotland a subscriber of your channel. 😊😊😊

I like a nice tall solid wall for the privacy it provides. The only downside is it blocks the wind. PS I don't know how that got that because large vibrators are illegal to sell in Thailand.

New camera and sound is good, would it not have been cheaper to continue those slatted trellis wood like sections all around ? Personally I think it would look nicer rather than the “ compound” look,. Wouldn’t need painting either,nice job on the surrounding wall all the same, might be worth having a few water runaways at the bottom of the new walls in case of future flooding, but I suppose it would be flooded next door to, expensive times ahead with pool and resort, good luck,.

Nice one paul.are you putting in a fibreaglass pool in cheers

Just trying to get some ideas. Do you think there would be work out in Thailand for me as a British Tiler?

34:33 why don’t those windows line up! lol

Bing and rubbish haul away is a new idea for SE Asia

Well done buddy, trying it now will let you know how it goes.
