You are a bored person.......sorry.

[@abbyT2023]

@@denzilburriss5156I notice you always have such a negative vibe. You are clearly desperate for attention so let me give you some today. I hope it makes you feel better. The poster is right. Brian is as they describe him. Perhaps you can try to be as well. It might transform your mood.

Pascal has a good story. I love him too. Fun riding along today, and watching the wood chopping. Enjoy your fire and simple supper. Rest well and take us along again soon

[@Charlies-angel2018]

It makes me so happy that you only refer to him as Pascal. I've named all my cars and my friends laugh when, instead of saying "My car...", I'll say "Gregory is blah blah..." I don't feel like such an outlier now.

Beautiful jazz music in the opening.🎷🎼 I'm sure Dan is in 7th heaven right now. The roof is on and watertight and he now has electrics thanks to you and Nicks hard work. I do like seeing you work on your own now, its refreshing to watch your vlogs.🍻

[@colinmcknight9605]

the Pascal story is truly wonderful.

[@denisevincent4050]

I love Pascal stories. It's as if he carries Dog Vibes. I also like the smooth jazz vibes (likely because I'm just old). When the store is out of jalapeno bits, sometimes you can find a jar of pickled bits, or salsa. Then you just need some crackers (or bread, or tortilla chips or pretzels) and cheese. Lay the crunchy bits on a cookie sheet, sprinkle them with bits of cheese, and then put the jalapeno bits (or salsa) on top. Bake until they're melty. Warning: this can be addictive. ;)

[@annafink6217]

I love watching your vlogs, the pace, the music, the things you are talking about...😊

I usually cut and stack my wood in the springtime so I have it “seasoned” for the next year. It’s also a great way to work off any winter weight! Living off grid in the mountains does that to you. 😊

You should connect with Mr Dummond and take him for a drive in Pascal, maybe you can pick up Monique as well 😀

[@marcyrennee]

Hi Brian, you will always get haters in the comments. I think you should take their comments as a complement... I enjoy your channel but that might be because i'm a happy soul. I find you very engaging personable and upbeat .Keep up the good work.😉

[@pianotekgeek]

Well, then 43 of us now, that quarter must be a kid, are happy souls too. ❤ Seriously, Brian gets nasty comments? Why in God's Name would somebody do that? I don't get haters anyhow. I mean if they don't like a vlog why then just not watch it anymore. No need to get nasty. That only gives away ones obviously not nice character. Thank you for showing your colors is what they say in such a case. Sad though, very sad. 😢. I'm glad that you are a happy soul. Wish you all the best and a very, merry Christmas.

[@AndreatheDoria]

It’s the same with my 1994 Saturn SL2 that I bought new in 1993. Everyone love him. My hubby can’t drive him as Bubo the beast gets to doing as he pleases with hubby. Bubo has spun out on some leaves on my hubby and when I got in I asks hubby what happened hubby said nothing! I was like no what happened? Finally hubby said he was driving through the local park called Forest Park here in New York City’s borough of Queens, when he hit some leaves and the car went nuts. Hubby can’t Drive with Bubo’s cruise control on either the car suddenly speeds up to catch the drag of big trucks. 😂. Bubo’s water pump once blew out and still got me home which was a mile away! He’s as magical as Pascal in many ways.

I have always named my vehicles after The Rolling Stones and or their songs. My first car 40 plus years ago was Ruby Tuesday and now we have Mick Jaguar for our Jaguar F-Pace. Pascal,is very cool.

Our neighbour next door has a dog called Jimmie Hendrix 😂

[@mitzigaynor-rz5zn]

My car is called ‘Jezebel’ because it has a V6 engine, dark grey and a Roo bar on the front. My friends said it looked too masculine for a woman to own but I love my Jezebel, she gets me wherever I want to go in any weather and she tows my caravan whenever I go camping. Jezebel is 14 years old and is still wonderful. I can understand why you love your Pascal. 🇦🇺🦘🦘🇦🇺

Sweet love Pascal and what a nice place you have. Looking forward to what you will do with it! 😊

[@donmorrow1923]

Good 2 day combo vlog Brian. The Jazz music and drone shot is always such a nice intro. U.S. President Lincoln once said “If I had 6 hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend 4 hours sharping my axe” Looks like you sharpened that axe quite well. Ah yes, Pascal. It’s a perfect name for him, and the love you have for that old vehicle shows. Great that you learned about its previous owner as well, he obviously had and still does, a love for Pascal.

Nobody will ever convince me that objects don't absorb the energy of their owners and Pascal is a prime example of that happy energy! I love that he has gone on to be cared for by another happy man 🙂

[@vickikey227]

Morning Brian, Pascal might like to be hooked up to what we in Australia call “trickle chargers” which keep “old” car battery’s charged. I have one for my old Monaro which she loves being hooked up to (a bit like CPR for cars). Like that you are getting organised for the winter stacking wood where it is nice & dry. Cheese and crackers and wine sounds like a delightful supper (perhaps not for a hard working fella). Anyway loved your vlog and especially the music.😊

[@beckytalhelm6415]

The story of the previous owner of Pascal was so sweet! A good pet becomes a treasured companion 🐾🦮

Pascal needs a dog to carry around. But I truly understand how a van can make you feel good. I used to have one, and I miss her.

Loving Pascal’s story and your ramblings and choice of music 😊

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Dear Mr. Brian. Thanks for sharing the story. It's a marvel that your car wasn't eaten away by rust (as they normally do). Your Pascal Renault Express (R5 based) is the legitimate successor of the famous Renault R4 type F4/F6. I loved our normal off white R4 limousine especially because of it's unconventional but great "Krückstockschaltung" respectively "Revolverschaltung" (turret gearshift?). The family that preowned the car had painted a lot of pretty Flowers in several colours and lots of green tendrils all over it. Looked absolutely fantastic because the flower paint job was done very well. It was named Uli and the name was painted on the trunk hatch (it was the owner's wife nickname). We modified it and added some letters to "Julchen" (little Julia if you will). I fabricated an adapter for a billard ball and put it on instead of the original shifter knob. Billard balls feel great and I still regret to have given it away with the car when we sold it. Not only because it was green (and I absolutely love nearly anything that is green 💚) but also because I had this special shifter knob on several cars. Maybe some day I will restore a R4 and put a similar paint job on it. My daughter would love it (although already long grown up). It was her favourite car as a child. Best regards, luck and health in particular.

Love the story about Pascal. I got a 2018 used Hyundai Kona that is kind of shocking blue. I didn’t get a choice of color. My ex saw it and called it “The Blueberry.” And now that’s its official name.

[@tinapartridge9303]

Thats exactly what I had ror tea that day, whenever I don't want to cook ,cheese and crackers, wine or G&T . Love the story of Pascal , but you do get fond of cars, glad its not just a women thing lol.I also had a little van for awhile ,loved it so useful ( especially if you have half a dozen dogs as I did back then) thinking about another one ,I only have 1 dog but a do go camping ,not a tent but a caravan though, so would need to be a big van or at least engine would. There's something about splitting logs that's addictive to both do and watch. ❤

I used to own an imported Renault. Spent a lifetime trying to get parts store clerks and garages over here to pronounce it properly. They thought I was wrong but I shut them up with (read as phonetic of sorts) so using that pronunciation, that means you say Chev-roe-let? Silence. 😂😂😂 I 💜 Pascal. (Good channel merch idea).

Different fabric colors on the seats should be used as a distinguishing feature of the French car industry. A friend of mine got a new car with different seat colors; she had finally given up trying to fix the problem. :)

Pascal is certainly a godsend! I don't think that the mechanic would have introduced you to him, Brian, unless he deemed you worthy - and you're not French!! Not that we need character references at this point. You were made for each other. I know you're busy at the chateau, but the three of you need nutritious meals in order to do the work you're up to. Think about setting up a small kitchen and making dinner at lunch time. I bet it'll be easier all the way around. You even have electricity now! 💗💗💗
