Billy Is Back, And He's Not Happy!

[@ToniCherub]

Cobbled will work with wheelchairs. Only yesterday did I push my son over the old cobbles in a castle. It’s lovely to see that you have thought of this. Nice touch ❤

[@Jarfm]

The lead in with slowmo and the music was awesome, the sheriff is back in town. 😎

[@virginiaalderson4793]

With an adult son as a wheelchair user this is so nice to see. Inclusion for disabled or elderly is so thoughtful and it looks good too 😊

[@KatMer6163]

My thoughts exactly. Welcome back Billy. Thanks for paying attention to my (and other's) comments regarding this entrance being wheelchair accessible.

[@jeanbobolts3877]

It might be required by law, seeing Billy hopes to use it as a public space in the future..

[@Rosarium2007]

The title is right. Billy is not happy, instead he’s “quite happy.”

[@pamabernathy8728]

Welcome back, Billy. The whole crew did you proud! Ryan is a natural presenter!!

[@wendykeyes7172]

Don’t forget to remind Billy of the leak in the attic from the rain !

[@choochoo9506]

I'm with Billy. I like working, too. Could've retired years ago, but I got too bored and depressed. Got back to work and felt a LOT better.

[@mnamber]

Well, all the guys did a fantastic job! So Billy should be happy happy!!

[@siameseire]

Billy, you are a fabulous priceless presenter. Your presence is So comforting and kind and makes one's soul feel safe and happy!!!!!!!! The Hardy Boys gang did a good job but You will always be missed when you are away!

[@sebk5232]

With this high quality stud work, you are basically building a house inside a house. More sturdy than some homes in the U.S.😂

[@joannenorris8102]

The opening segment reminded me of the scenes in High Noon. That bit of filmography Alex was simply masterful. Welcome back Billie, they held the fort for you in your absence. This is such a splendid vlog!!!!

[@girlnorthof60]

My house (remote mining town in the Yukon) was built quickly of premade panels. When I open up a wall there are arrows & numbers indicating placement... a few have my neighbours house #... oops, I think it was a Friday build 😬

I really agree that Ryan is a natural presenter. I was impressed with the way he MC’d the videos. Great job everyone

[@ryanandmichellenisle8236]

Agreed! I love his channel- Life of Ryan!

Yes, indeed!

[@annanarducci8791]

That transition where you both ducked behind the truck at the chateau and popped up at the convent really made me laugh. Wonderful bit of editing

[@brittawrolson5936]

Love that intro! Welcome back Billy! (Did you forget to thank Alex for his genius while you were away?)

[@allymayful]

Wouldn’t that be something you could take for granted, knowing who Billy is???

[@miriamlorenz7687]

Ryan, you really are a natural presenter. Well done.

[@beetee3272]

Could you feel the momentum building as Billy entered the gates, exited the transit and entered the Convent 😳

[@deniseblackman5229]

I loved it!

[@mom-ys9sb]

That was terrific filming by Alex.. music too !! Well done .....

[@maryannknox7158]

Ryan did Awesome 😎!

[@Garden366]

Oh! Poor Ryan! He worked SO hard to get off all that blasted wallpaper, he held out his hand to the wall and Billy didn’t even take note. It’s ok Ryan, we know exactly how hard you worked and Billy is a take-charge, what’s next kinda guy so no harm! Welcome back Billy and crack on!! Can’t wait to see how the convent continues to take shape.

[@Frank-1964-]

Poor Ryan?? The guy trashed one apartment and then decided he wanted a bigger one lol. His DIY skills are par with mine. But he’s having a go which is highly commendable. Go Go Ryan 😀 and welcome back Billy

[@bobyjonhson3665]

Alex is the GOAT. He even makes a drive look cinematic. Looking forward to what he does with the new setup.

[@TLMarzewski]

My thoughts too!

[@ryanandmichellenisle8236]

@@lisaa3978I thought I was the only one!! I also love how he used to put the song name and artist in the description.

[@naomimeyers84]

Billy's not happy? Couldn't have been further from it, always so gracious and grateful for all the help and company he has. Everyone did a phenomenal job keeping up the channel and adding a flair of fun and exploration of the grounds many of us perhaps hadn't seen before. I really enjoyed the 'ghost hunt' portion, hopefully you can organize another on the dates of known deaths in the convent and another closer to halloween? And I also really enjoyed exploring the gardens and mapping those out. Cheers everyone!

[@gregmunro1137]

Well Billy, you can now understand why we love the show!

[@mom-ys9sb]

I can never understand how some viewers are such "complainers"?! Where you buy your materials that you use is your business... if they paid for it or contributed maybe then they could 'offer' a comment. On all KZbinrs channels you get these people... fascinating !!! Makes me feel proud that most people are positive and I'm one of them LOL. Keep on truckin' Billy and you don't always have to placate everyone !! Glad you're back . The gang did a great job while you were gone. Bless you all !!

[@user-yz7ds7rn9b]

Ryan defilitively has got the gift! He is a natural and so is Alex. Love the interesting video's and the music he uses. Love listening to Simon too. You've got some wonderful people around you Billy. Like you are!

The men did a fantastic job while you were away but it’s good to see you back Billy - and you’re a great presenter! 😊

[@sofiebribiesca6678]

Beautiful wrought iron. tsk tsk, some people... It was wrapped in plastic. How could anyone assume what/ where they came from. One of my favourite things about France is the stunning wrought iron and your choice is absolutely lovely. oh and welcome back, please keep all the old orchard trees . It just need a tidy up, and some fert. a bit of pruning and see how to update the paths around it. It doesn't have to be straight lines

[@larrysmith937]

Billy, you thanked everyone in the beginning of the video BUT Alex!!

[@westcoastcaroline]

Cameras great. I noticed the depth of field was better when you were by the truck when you arrived at the chateau. 🎥❤️

[@deniseblackman5229]

Ryan’s demeanor was a little different. I’m happy Billy told him he’s a born presenter.

[@merrileeheard3889]

Apparently Ryan was hung over 😅

Welcome back Billy we did miss you, and that look when you step inside the convent, that Wow…tells all. And now you know you can often take a break,

[@cianfleetwood8099]

Billy, you should have more than one water point in the courtyard. When you place the sink in the kitchen, have it near a courtyard wall to drill through the wall to fit tap on the exterior. When eventually restoring the garden, have multi water points in the garden roughly every 15 to 20m.

[@lisaakinlabi]

LOL I laughed at anyone saying your railing would be cheap! Have they met you yet Billy?! If anything you have gone with the best of everything. I like the railing as well - good choice. Good to have you back! You friends did a great job, as they should - they are all professional and good at what they do as well.

Welcome back, Billy (and Gwen, Ernest & Archie). Glad you had a relaxing holiday. Loving the new camera - now it looks like the BBC are following you around 😀. You all definitely ‘cracked on’ today. The rustic ramp (as it will always be named) finishes off the entrance beautifully. Just imagine when the new doors are fitted.

I am a patreon at la lande. I was raised in a convent from almost 5 til 16 while living in England. Moved to usa in 1974. Plainly the life there in the convent was terrifying. St Patrick's England I believe it was burnt. Good job

[@bwitched3810]

Intro was amazing Billy .Alex You rock on camera ..Nice You home Billy I hope You had a great family time ..

[@TheNaturalLawInstitute]

OK. So, now Alex has to carry two cameras ... the large one for most shots, and the small one for handing to Billy when he's sticking his head somewhere sketchy. And because the camera is bigger, the next purchase will be a Camera Stabilizer (couple of hundred), and after that a proper Steadicam and vest (couple of thousand). And then alex will look like a proper cyborg doing his work. ;) And billy will question why he ever moved on from the handheld format. ;)

[@tracylyon-woerner8189]

Love the intro music and photography - nothing like a good western 🤠🤠

The title of the video cracks me up! I have never seen Billy not happy....that's not to say he hasn't been unhappy but he is professional enough not to show it. Another thing about you Billy is you have the uncanny ability to hire great people! I've not seen one person that is working for you that isn't very skilled at what they do! Last but not least...when Simon was showing you the colors for the pointing in the fireplace I was thinking just make it in between the light and dark gray colors and BAM! that's exactly what you said! Your words made my old heart sing. That's why I love watching your channel, your program always brightens my day! Well done and welcome back!

[@joettabraddock9480]
