[@Ashton60578]

You made a wise choice to get someone to help you with the garden. At least you know they will come on nice days for working outside.

[@margaretforshaw1617]

Getting help is a brilliant idea …

[@Wiccanglen]

Phil, no one should leave nasty comments. That's truly abysmal. Take care of yourself, and don't let the nutters get to you.

[@nannieg7622]

Don’t stay away too long Phil, I personally wouldn’t mind watching a video of you clearing the gym or a video of the gardener cutting the grass, just take care of yourself ok?

[@normamurray4450]

I agree!

[@nuttisniche1717]

I think someone to help with the gardening is a great idea.

[@terisalund3367]

Single, older gal.. Now 70. Several years ago, my truck had a problem about 9 miles from home. I lived at the bottom of a forestry mountain pass and was broken down at the last,very small, town. No bus. No taxi. Nothing. And after dark. Could have called friends. But didn’t want to disturb during family dinner time. Called police who informed me they were not a taxi service. So, what to do? Pizza place. Still open. And I knew they did deliveries up the mountain. Told them the situation. I’ll order the pizza for delivery if you take me with you. He did and was great! Gave hm a nice tip. So grateful. Learning to live outside of city conveniences. Priceless life skills!

[@deniseroe5891]

We moved from the Metroplex two and a half years ago, out to 12 acres that is 17 miles from an actual town. Thank the Lord for family and cell phones! It is a learning curve for sure, lots of ingenuity needed.

[@nicolethijs5428]

You are a trooper. Glad you did not wonder home on your own, for 9 miles in the dark! Next time call friends even in the middle of diner! They can leave their diner to bring you home safely! They would not forgive themself should something happen to you!

[@sillashaw]

Love this!

[@margielynch7196]

Like the way you used your brain. A big boo to the police, to leave a lady in that situation is a criminal act! Glad you got home Ok.❤️❤️❤️

[@janeharris6925]

Quick thinking!

[@fiat_heart]

Whatever you film is interesting because you're interesting. You think we're watching for the chateau but we're actually here for you; your generous soul, your warm smile, your capable hands, your humility, your introspection, your many talents, your can-do attitude, your willingness to try, your love of beauty, and all of your projects and adventures. We're glad to know of you and pray for your success and well-being. God bless you, Phil!

[@jeannefoguth2339]

I 100% agree with having someone come in to assist and you getting projects done while they are around... Decades ago, we made a 'house rule' that my husband isn't allowed to climb ladders and/or use the chainsaw without someone around... this was made after he did do that and ended up at the hospital.

[@mariagillinson8527]

Phil please post so we know you’re ok! Just shorts would be fine …

[@TLMarzewski]

A gardener to help you is a brilliant idea! So sorry the machine elves are being mischievous!

[@rozbarber3195]

Glad you’re getting some help and looking after your health. Never take it for granted.🏃‍♂️🏋️💪 Take care!

[@mrsmiggins6435]

Things always happen for a reason, and have a way of working out for the best. Stay safe

[@maj6190]

Oh, Phil. Your description of disaster after disaster brought me to tears of laughter. As they say, stuff happens. So glad you're planning a safety net when you're working about the place.

[@brendakerr9064]

Getting help with gardening is a great solution!! A friend once tokd me " Do the stuff you are good at and pay someone to do the other stuff". Those of us that live alone sometimes try to do everything ourselves.... It is not always best! It can feel like non stop working... Whereas havung a littke help, can free us up to actually enjoy life now and then 😁

[@denisepaul14]

We all care about you! do what's best for you!

[@elisabethhopson5639]

Getting some help in the garden again is a good idea. You used to have someone to work in the garden a couple of years ago. It will be good company as well as getting stuff done quicker. The rethink is a wise move. 😀

[@andrearathbun]

I am glad to hear you are considering getting some help.

[@anner4288]

Always good to have back up when tackling dangerous jobs.

[@schuylerbogue7226]

Videos of clearing out a room can be relaxing or motivating for others. You can put the camera in a corner, then speed up the video for posting. Enjoying your videos, hello from New Hampshire!

[@catherinefromchristchurchn6508]

With a relaxing sound track, no need for commentary or explanation.

[@normhowes2975]

I live with someone who wouldn't know if I was trapped under a car for at least 3 hours because it means coming out of the house and checking on me. Glad your getting some help as no matter how much we try to do it ourselves we sometimes just need another's help.

[@pamelar5868]

❤😮

[@margielynch7196]

Phil, my idea is for you to sell or scrap all of the old bits and get yourself at least one machine that actually works 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

[@suechapman8580]

Your safety and wellbeing is paramount. I felt the same when i lost my husband many years ago. No one would know if i didnt get home from work. I sort of never wanted to rely on anyone until they're not there and suddenly you feel a bit vulnerable. Video's are great whenever they appear. Take care. X❤😊

[@lovelyday1965]

You should film it anyway, just edit it down and overlay some appropriate music. It's kinda asmr. I'm virtually alone, also. I locked myself in the chicken run on a 10° F. morning and couldn't get out. Nobody to help, I finally got down on my back and kicked the run door apart. There was no way that they didn't hear me yelling in this valley, but nobody came. I was whistling so loud it would burst an eardrum. Stay safe and keep on keepin' on.

[@OzzieJayne]

Coincidentally Oz has started safety ads re working alone, good idea to have someone nearby for dangerous stuff. Keep safe and enjoy the lovely weather xxx

[@sillashaw]

Sorry to hear you had a miss adventure last night. It sounds like you’ve a real skill at presevering when things get tough. It’s wisdom to know, to have someone around when doing dangerous activities. You seem like an extremely personable person. It might be also wise to acquire someone to call and check in on you. Someone, who will be happy to help even late at night in times of trouble. Your friends really do want to help, and probably wouldn’t find it as bothersome as you think.

[@jenniferstewart2235]

Part time gardner is a great idea. Also, consider keeping spares in all vehicles at all times. !!

[@SweetOne.]

Great Choice! I also used to have clean up parties when I lived alone. Myself and 3 friends would clean and do yard work at all our homes over a weekend or two. It is so much easier and faster when we have help - some jobs require more than one person and that is just a fact. Someone should be "holding the ladder".

[@thewilliamseswonderfulworld]

Yes, we’d like to see you clean out the room in a video.

[@wendyrobinson2281]

Where is lighting haven't seen him hope he is OK xx

[@debshaw680]

He was in the last video

[@AdieBek]

Not a bad thing to give you perspective Phil. Take time to take care of you. Hugs

[@jimriffel6969]

😂 That tree is a jinx. You jogging high speed on the treadmill could be entertaining...but really, gardening is one of the BEST ways to maintain health.😅

[@mocarra100]

Thank God, finally you're getting some help 😊 every time I watch your show I say you need help lol you're a hard worker but you're only one man. Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖

[@rebeccahart2800]

That’s exactly what we want to see!! We love a room clear out - put us on time lapse!

[@alcloud4265]

Murphy’s law: anything that can happen, will happen. Your kind of day Phil!

[@melanieodey6552]

Yes, great plan forward to have backup when tackling the dangerous stuff in isolated places. Also have phone set up to 'SOS ring a friend', maybe check out a personal locator beacon device? Well done. Cheers

[@catherinekilgour2563]

My husband used to drive a forklift at work. The company he worked for had a rule there always had to be two staff members on site. I like that this is a rule you have decided on before any injuries occurred and because you see the good sense in implementing it. It also makes me happy that you felt safe walking 10km home in the middle of the night and that again it was a personal choice because you knew if you rang your friends they would come and help you. I hope my children (and their friends) know that I would always come and help them if they ask. I never want them to drive when they shouldn't because they don't feel like they have options.

[@suemccoy7533]

Phil, I can not understand why anyone would leave nasty comments about you! What the heck is wrong with people that do that? I agree that things like working with chain saws and wood chippers could be dangerous, no matter how careful you are. Good idea to have someone on the property during those times, just in case. Look forward to you're coming back as soon as you are able, love your channels!

[@Elloamcool]

Please take care Phil. It sure is lots of work maintaining a home like your Chateau and such a large garden. Your good health and wellbeing is vital.

[@jimnmom]

If I could do so , on the broken casing on the chipper I’d try some JB weld before I went to a to a lot of trouble , I’ve used it on many high pressure projects like engine blocks and well pump tanks etc, most if the time it’s a permanent fix.

[@helenfenwick-hp5eu]

Phil, you need a Yannis.

[@lindamiller2723]

That young man is a worker!

[@cynthiawilkinson9678]

Yes, get a gardener to help or get a landscraper to always do the yard. This way, you can do other things, or you will burn out.

[@camilamhf]

You CAN do many things by yourself, but it doesn't mean you HAVE to do it! It's wise to hire help on simpler tasks so you can dedicate your time to the ones only you can do. I would also suggest you try to find a professional organizer in your area to help you go through all those leftover belongings. It would make the process less painful and quicker!

[@tygerhardy]

It was beautiful day in the UK as well today.

[@daisystroud4586]

Surely if you had a spare tyre the problem of the car would have been able to be fixed there and then. I live alone so I fully understand your thinking of not having anyone around if something goes wrong...

[@louisegriffin9128]

Love your choice of music.

[@mariagillinson8527]

Phil that a great idea to get help

[@jenniferstrachan7084]

I’m pleased to hear that you have decided to get some help in terms of getting your garden sorted Otherwise what is the point in living in such a wonderful environment You need time to connect and enjoy your wonderful home and gardens plus also time for you to reflect and take care of yourself Ps you certainly do not need to loose weight ❤

[@teamum7729]

Your decision to tackle the potentially dangerous tasks when there is another person on site is smart. I have lived in rural areas and been the safety net for others doing tricky work as they have been for me. It’s just the rural way of life.

[@Wren9]

Love the music Phil. Thank you for sharing. Pity about the wood chipper. You’ve got the right plan to do something outside while the sun shines. Maybe you can pick up a wood chipper at a machine auction 🤷‍♂️ it’s all shaping up Phil and with help it will give you time to do indoor projects if you like. Enjoy your days Phil, we’re all here for you ✔️💯🏃‍♀️‍➡️

[@dori22112]

Those bad things seem always to come in threes. You should have smooth sailing from now on. It is a good idea to have someone there when doing a dangerous job.

[@bellab1973]

Good plan to hire a gardener - hopefully they will have their own gardening equipment - wood-chipper, ride-on mower etc - to use until yours are repaired!

[@BarbaraatQueensAvenueTarot]

That would be maddening to have to work on every tool before it can be used. Maybe time for some upgrades?

[@janetpendlebury6808]

Why pay out for new stuff when the old can be repaired? That is the trouble with the with the throw away mentality around today.

[@roseharvey2664]

Good point about soing soomme of the more dangerous jobs, having someone someone around is a good idea. I guess there are a lot of changes that come with the end of a relationship, but it takes a while to adjust and even to see things that just haven't really been an issue before.

[@raynonabohrer5624]

Good idea 💡 👏. Please get better 🙏. I'm praying for you 🙏 .

[@rosemariedeschenes7013]

Good idea to get help with the garden. Take care of yourself 😍😘

[@karens138]

Always make sure you have a spare tyre, easy solution. But yes its a large property to look after so nothing wrong with getting a gardener.

[@bethmarchio6661]

A spare tire might be a good idea. I’m sure you thought about that on your late walk.

[@CelestialHope111]

Fly me over & I'll be happy to help for the summer 😊 I'm too much older to anything more than a friend, a good project manager & listening ear, but young enough to still do bunches lol...plus I've just hit the brink of empty nester & bored nearly to death .. good luck sir & dont pay attention to the nasty comments

[@gaelenecole4053]

Yep I hear you ❤ Great idea for the help … Yes it’s all ways good to have a safety net around if just in case the unthinkable happens … Bummer about the flat type your a brave guy walking late at night ☹️we would not even think about it down here …

[@mingletink]

Always have the local pompiers on speed dial. They don't just put out fires, they have a high level of training in emergency medicine. Take care.

[@suzannemckitterick2781]

Phil, I do know what it is like...one person moving/doing things takes a whole lot longer for everything..."it ain't for sissies" but it is satisfying, eventually, if you live...Getting help is wonderful. Get it if you can. I love your videos and send continued warm wishes for success. Bit by bit your momentum continues...Don't give up. There is always something you can do, no matter how small, then the next day seems to send some extra funds that enables the purchase of a needed mower or bark eater...Rewards seem to come out of nowhere...Best regards....

[@user-kq9zv4hu4p]

You have plenty of room Phil , make a separate apartment, and rent it out . Take care ❤

[@gl8282]

Phil, u didn’t call anyone at that time, because people are with family - you are so thoughtful and kind! Bless you dear friend!

[@MnGirl1994]

I have sound... no issues on my end

[@Betharoot]

I can't imagine the time it must take to care for the Chateau. You and your well being needs to be the priority though. Good for you getting some help.

[@julieknowles7063]

Great that you are getting help. Take time to sort out your immediate future, just take care of yourself.

[@mrmrsbrownsanimals4632]

Commenting to help your channel grow.

[@Anyone4music]

Getting a gardener is a great idea !

[@susanjones7872]

Phil, you are a hard worker. You did get something done outside. Sometimes it just takes time. Even if you have 1 step forward and 2 steps back. Hugs Sweetie!❤

[@Justforthefoodofit]

Great idea! Nothing wrong with help. And if you can post something, we love seeing you. ❤ even a short. If you can’t, we understand

[@Miriamhelps]

You might be surprised at how many people watch decluttering videos!

[@anitanagahisa3049]

Glad you are aware that you need some help. It’s OK , take care

[@KarenLukens]

I look forward to all of your video antics. Please keep them coming.

[@lindahyles1331]

I love watching you do things and less talking lols I like it when your clearing things, it’s meditative for me to see.. I really like it 👍🏻

[@shirleyleichliter4487]

I'm so glad you're being careful it does matter incace you get hurt and are alone see ya in a couple days❤

[@charmees6637]

Brilliant idea getting a gardener and someone around in case. Yes, when we lived in rural North Island New Zealand having your car breakdown is no fun as the next signs of human life are 25 k away. Mean there done that many many times

[@luanncolistro879]

Great idea to get help ! Stay safe ❤️❤️

[@cathysmiley6798]

Be safe Phil!

[@cecoya]

I realize that doing it all yourself is not always possible, I know all too well. Having someone help is a great asset Phil and not an easy thing to admit. You are NOT fat and maybe you feel like you need to be better with your health and that is a good thing. As we age it is important to take care of ourselves too. Not always easy but worth it in the end. Have a great day

[@ludovica8221]

Great idea

[@suzannepolder3929]

Yes, post photos!!

[@carladejonge4951]

The new adventures of Phil! Always a pleasure to see you!❤

I don't live in rural France but I do live alone since my husband died. What to do in an emergency is a sobering thought.

[@paulinebrennan3260]

Great ideas. Might consider folding bike or scooter to help you get home if breakdown.

[@nelleg152]

Good idea to have some help ❤

[@rosiesgrandma]

I don't know whether to cry or laugh with you. You are having one of my days and they are so frustrating but I've also come to learn that sometimes there's a reason unbeknownst to us. The planets will realign and things will go easier.

[@darcid5180]

Yes we do want to watch that 😊

[@user-hv6tz8lx7m]

With you all the way Phil, please take care!

[@janeblandford852]

Glad that you are safe Phil!! Good decision to get some help too!

[@user-uk8sm4ec3l]

Its a brilliant idea to get help so that you have someone around when up ladders, using a chain saw and other risky safety related jobs. Its a shame other Chateau owners don't consider not only their own health & safety, but also that of their workers/helpers. Well done Phil. Look forward to your next video.

[@patriciapallett8377]

Always pleased to see what you are up to when you are ready. Take care Phil. You look good. 😊

[@BeachClubNovaScotia]
