Bravo..!! 🎉❤

[@GoofieNewfie69]

Nice and tiny, easy to heat

[@empyfree]

Nice work. You two should be up for “hard grafters of the year” award if there is such a thing.

[@jenesisjones6706]

You two are indefatigable! I have never seen any couple work so hard for such a long period of time...with so much work still to do! Kudos to you both!

[@erikmanchester7885]

Nice that you don’t have to worry about frost heaving. Here you would need rebar and mesh in a slab or it wouldn’t last long. Good luck.

[@kroneditor9266]

To quote Jerome K Jerome: “It always does seem to me that I am doing more work than I should do. It is not that I object to the work, mind you; I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.” This is the sort of vicarious pleasure I get from watching you both labour on all of your extremely interesting projects. You continually surprise me with the true grit you show and are a great example to others made of lesser stuff or have had their turn already :-) 👍👍👍

[@MrCrabbing]

looks like a great start and a good size.

[@divarachelenvy]

you guys are awesome.

[@MrLampbus]

:) that will never float... Many years ago I was involved in the building of the Skye Bridge. The caissons were hollow concrete tubes, cast in an old oil rig yard : Kishorn Dry Dock. My job was to pump out and monitor the ballast water in the dock gates when we floated them at high tide. Each gate was 14,000 tons of concrete ... made like an egg box, filled with water to keep in place. The aim was to : flood the dock to the same level as the sea. Pump out the water, float the gates away, float the 2 caissons out and tow them to the bridge location and sink them. We had fun trying to get the dock gates re-sunk in the exact required position in a force 9 gale :)

[@mwolstat6409]

i recycle screws too. i have some that have been used in many different projects in many different apartments over the years.

[@andrewrolfe4334]

I'm in awe!

[@gregbolitho9775]

Heated Pool, Nice! To a shed, looks like the young bloke with the knee bandage and the wheel barrow, did a bludy good job. So did Gem and Simon. Thanks m8s, done real well. Thanks m8s stay vertical.

[@carasteve]

Been waiting very satisfying watching it coming to fruition,

[@patrickratchford7026]

I do enjoy the way the two of you work together and work so hard too. My hat is off to Y'all.

[@ianfirth-clark5975]

As a builder myself, I'm impressed with your graft and finish. Looking forward to the rest of the workshop build.

[@juliedouglas2888]

Good job guys.............

[@DeeCee1150]

Something so satisfying about laying concrete.

[@davidflamee]

Strong foundations for a promising future. Time stands still for no one. Well done.

[@Offutticus]

without saying a word, you explained a lot.

[@StevenWallwork-w4d]

Great job clearing your pool and shaping the garden ready for the next phase in you busy lives. Hope the kids don’t mind you removing the pool 😊

[@timbrocklehurst875]

Being British and watching people doing DIY, I can't help but hear the Ground Force theme in my head 😁

[@davidswain5687]

Great. It's brilliant to see you've decided to document the building of your workshop. You two are the hardest/busiest workers I've seen for a long, long time! Keep up the good work. Dave Swain and family x😊

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thank you very much!

[@mdouglaswray]

Great video - love all your shots!

[@waynes.3380]

No matter what you two do, have to watch.

[@kevinmartin3859]

Nicely done all of you

[@richardgould240]

There’s no end to your talent, what a team 👍.

[@loki7441]

Back breaking!

[@Hairnicks]

Well done you two, proper hard work done brilliantly.

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thank you very much!

[@lincolngrove2808]

My name is Lincoln and I'm a shedoholic. Like your work...

[@davidbrown8365]

Unique style with no commentary or chatting. Just letting the actions do the talking. Clever!

[@psycocavr]

Nice save with the drone.

[@floracampbell6875]

That looked like really hard work! Well done, both of you.

[@petertownsend1195]

You two are just brilliantly well done

[@davidm6134]

Brilliant! Just shows what a bit of ingenuity and some recycling can achieve!

[@limeylive8182]

The one place you have all the power you need ..... and back to using hand tools . 😁

[@gl2856]

Wow at it again ! Well done you two

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thank you so much 😀

[@tomapperly720]

Can’t wait for more updates 😊

[@graemeatkinson8411]

My plinth never had the final smooth over, gutted to see now how level it could have been, well done guys.

[@seankearney2592]

Well done,you Pair of workaholics...

[@budhorstmeyer9336]

Simon Furze!! What’s next, the start of a tunnel? Hey what a great idea! You two have so many things going on, one wonders how you keep track!! Alternators, paint, decks (multiple) and RIP Drones…..

[@robertmcdonnold3038]

Thanks for sharing the build with us.

[@arteepee]

Been there- done that! Hard graft in typical British weather! Bet you were both ready for a brew! Well done!

[@terrywilkins5266]

I'm exhausted just watching !!!!

[@lesliedickinson198]

You are an awesome together. Looking good for the new workshop 🙂

[@henrinijkamp319]

That’s how you do it. You are realy great and skilled workers. I’m glad i found you on you tube.

[@baswit514]

Came for the boat, and now watching a shed-build, 😂 greetings from Amsterdam

[@ShipHappensUK]

Something a bit different from frame repairs!

[@jnlgaines55]

Oh my! Nooooo!😮. Put a tarp down in the van to shovel onto. Makes emptying easier.

[@chrisbartlett6022]

I need to go for a lie down now after watching this 🙂 I did put a new roof on my log store today though

[@ShipHappensUK]

Well done! Bet it feels good to have that job ticked off!

[@chrisbartlett6022]

@@ShipHappensUK Starting to come out of hibernation slowly, Wife has a list of jobs I am trying to dodge. Tidied the garage up a bit today ready for a new project arriving.

[@offshoretinker]

That was sooo much fun you guys. REALLY looking forward to the build.🙂

[@catlikelemur2760]

Love that you've pulled it on here hate second chanels❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@utubota5522]

Great job! From experience, I will advise that it is not big enough (and probably never will be).

[@amanvasamantino5368]

Nice work

[@moreybandel5560]

Wow! Lots of progress! Looking good! Thanks for the video!

[@allanmason7544]

good work both

[@englishmaninmarktredwitz2228]

Looking forward to watching the workshop take shape.

[@sergueiothonucci1638]

😃😃😃

[@CJLeTeff]

Trim those shrubs please! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻

[@mauriciosousa9182]

Lindo trabalho, parabéns!!! vai ficar um lindo local de trabalho.

[@ritchieaponte417]

Awesome work thanks for sharing

[@pmacgowan]

Boy that van is a real workhorse

[@2thehook773]

I exhausted from just watching!

[@dcallan812]

Look like it been a while since Simon dived into that in his mankini. 🤣Great to see the workshop build starting. 2x👍

[@Hairball786]

Looking good so far. Can't wait to see the rest. 👍

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thanks 👍

[@Rubinho1977]

Another project, hard work and more videos for us , what a good idea 😋 the never-stop family is always on the road 🙂

[@lancemitchell7883]

You two! Not talking must have been hell! 👍😊

[@unclegreybeard3969]

I haven't spoken to my wife for about 6 months, I do so hate to interrupt her.

[@jjbjjb6547]

Everytime I watch you guys I'm almost ready to cry You work, WAY too hard all the time! You need a episode of rest-relaxation-And, LOTS OF BEER!😅😅

[@garybaris139]

Nice job. I'm puzzled though. No reinforcing mesh or rebar?

[@garyphillips7993]

A good start to your workshop, nice to see you reusing some of the old wood.

[@NUTTER8291]

Awww i can't believe you're depriving the kids of that pool that probably only gets used a few times a year lol Makes a difference with no commentary.. for something like this where you just need to get on with the job and its self explaining.. i like it !! Only comment ... guys, you DONT need to justify how much you're spending building that shed !! That's YOUR business, not ours !! ❤

[@epamanonda1]

Looking forward to this .👍👍👍👍👌👌👌

[@ShipHappensUK]

Us too!

[@darren-thecottageatelier8962]

wow you guys do not hang around, a great video....

[@daverichardson5861]

Great job you two, hard work but looking good. Great vlog. Stay well.

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@lacyoflittlerobincottage1403]

Gemma, you missed a good chance to through in a few hands full of glitter/color chips when the floating was being done at the end. And putting the date of pour in the corner when it's semi set. You guys are the hardest work folks. Hope you and yours are well ~ See you next time ~ Lacy, Mike & Hamish🤗💕🐾

[@CaptianKaos]

Great job. Reclaiming your back yard and now you can cut a lot of your traveling down. And the Galley is close at hand. Lol. Cheers.

[@martynbuzzing3327]

Shouldn't there be some steel mesh in the concrete? I'm just thinking it's a big pad. 😊

[@wildwestcoast8095]

That was an inspiring video thank you for sharing the progress on the wood shop I need to build one myself

[@normmcrae1140]

I'm very surprised you didn't have to put reinforcing mesh in the concrete! LOTS of HARD work... Congrats!

[@stephenhayes6133]

Very interesting, and something different, both of you are great the projects you do is amazing.

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thank you so much!

[@andreamundt]

Familiar sights....My father used to be a mason and did a lot of DIY at our home Childhood memories. Nice video! = )

[@kingmanstudent]

Definitely going to be an interesting change

[@colinfirst1689]

great vid no steel

[@MrTimsvids]

18:04 hes having a crafty look

[@angelabuxton2143]

You two are such hard workers, it's inspiring to watch your vlogs. You both deserve a medal. Could you not get a local school or college to get apprentice FREE help to complete one or all of your projects?

[@darylpike8547]

I'm glad you said that it's the base for the shed, I thought it was a hard for Serinda lol 😅😂😂😂

[@noelbowerman1562]

Hard graft ,but it's probably saved you £3k in labour costs. I'm currently rebuilding my bathroom ,around 9k Aussie in Materials, it would be over 25k if I was paying someone. It's good to have skills

[@repairrestoreandrebuild8974]

Good work, going to be a nice shed!

[@jnlgaines55]

I bet it was a lot more fun putting it up.

[@juliaharris8751]

Hi, SH! I can only imagine what the neighbors thought was going on in your yard. First the shoveling, then the sound of dragging. 😅 Your projects are all so cool. Can't wait to see the finished workshop. 🏠🚤❤

[@alangurman3961]

I watch and try to support several boat building videos. The trouble I find is the size of the T shirts. The problem for us lounge chair or ex sailors is that we have expanded around the waist. 4x and 5x t shirts would aid us in supporting you.

[@cmdrrockswift2204]

Good progress. Probably would have done trampoline area too

[@truth1464]

Massive changes afoot!! I don't blame you guys - there will be a lot of people turning off the heating to their pools and spas - no one can afford to heat them anymore - me included!!! It must be very mixed emotions for you with all of the happy memories of summer with the kids in the pool. Out of the ashes of the Phoenix will be a new dawn for you all, including Sarinda....... Best wishes on your new venture. With you all the way. x. Davidm.

[@buffplums]

That Dynamix stuff, what a great way to do concrete, mix it on site so you only pay for the concrete you yous… brilliant!

[@geebopbaluba1591]

You guys don’t mess around when you’re restoring a shit or demoing a pool. Nice work !

[@andreamundt]

restoring a *shit*? 😳

[@darrylscott4237]

Just curious why you didn’t use rebar or some wire

[@noelbowerman1562]

I thought the same ,we wouldn't be allowed to make a slab that size without reo bar.

[@stevefairbanks835]

Hard work! Looking good, can’t wait to see the build

[@eddyhammerton3310]

Great work you two bloody knackered just watching you... is there anything Simon cant do

[@lauralake7430]

He really is a genius, for all he said he hated school. It just goes to show the schools dont know how to teach smart people.

[@eddyhammerton3310]

yes a born genius with common sense nobody can teach thst

[@ski69]

nice work, but you forgot to put rebar inside the concrete to keep all that together. Couple stress relievers wouldn't have hurt the project either, like a grooved cross thru the center....in couple years this thing will crack because of the cold and heat, rain and snow variations.....

[@lauralake7430]

Gemma, go look at pictures of the Land Girls and start tying your hair up in a scarf! Super cute and it will save you from all the tangles, paint, grease, grime, muck, and so on. I rock a Rosie the Riveter scarf myself here in California and i tell you, i get compliments on how cute it is all the time and my hair is safe!

[@nilthonljr]

Casal multi polivalente, parabéns para vocês.
