Mysterious Voices

"Good morning Sean. Good morning Billy" AND the first few minutes of the video with Sean being silly- my day is so much better!

[@karenniehues4786]

I had to look twice to see the hose!!! Lol

[@SaffyFoo]

That was so naughty Sean… you two should not be left alone together 😂😂😂

[@BTRPaganMedium]

Gave me a great laugh! Brilliant humor Sean!

[@annaibarra3447]

😂

[@autodidactin]

Hard for me to say what I like better about Sean: his tremendous skills or his fabulous sense of humor! Thank you chaps, for another interesting and entertaining vlog. Onwards and UPWARDS!

[@MrsPink64]

I laughed so loud! 😂

[@jackiesaylor2487]

That first clip.... Hilarious. Oh and I love those endings where Sean takes a sip of beer and says "oh that's nice"

[@susanburd4553]

At my brothers high school graduation my sister and I saw our father walk through the auditorium door. We looked at each other and said did you? Yes we each said. He had been dead 4 years. He had wanted all of his kids to finish school

[@daisymaisy4877]

I have to admit when you do outside footage I check all the windows expecting a old nun to be peeking out to see what work you're doing 😊

[@sharonfletcher2089]

I do it everytime too. Lol

[@annaibarra3447]

😅😅

[@traciasmith1542]

Same

[@melodyfisher1512]

We need to send him a cardboard cut out to place in one of the windows!😂

[@charlotteMT134]

I've thought along these lines as well. 🤣 LOL. Yes. Shadows and mist...🙏📿

[@amyburl3826]

100 years after Sean is gone, his skilled craftsmanship will still be all over the city. What an honor it must be to have that gift and to leave that type of mark on the planet. Well done.

[@lilliesfaire4428]

Gorgeous! So happy you are back to the daily vlogs. I laughed out loud with the first angle of the camera when Sean was filling the mixer with water. 😂 You boys put a smile on my face. Too funny.

[@pamabernathy8728]

Exactly! Streaming video, indeed!!!

[@attilladacook3405]

My husband and I were renovating a 1900’s building in Chicago with two apartments. We lived in the top apartment and he was downstairs working on the first floor apartment while I was upstairs unknown to him, he thought I was down by him. Suddenly he came running upstairs as white as a ghost asking me when I had left him in the apartment. I said I never was down there. Apparently he had been having a conversation with someone/thing, without turning around thinking it was me. Yep that was creepy.

[@elizabethgrogan8553]

I attended a Catholic School, where 75% of our teachers were nuns. The nunnery was a large building in the middle of immaculate gardens. I had my piano and violin lessons in the music rooms, again in the gardens. We heard that an elderly nun had died and our music lessons were suspended. I wanted to know why. Eventually, lessons were restored & I asked my teacher nun. She explained that nuns who die are sometimes seen walking the gardens and the recent victim was very active for several days. A priest came "to help her pass over" and she wasn't seen again. My mother had attended the same school and told me that such events happened in her time there.

[@annaibarra3447]

I attended a private Catholic university! I wanna say I did hear something similar. I know a little elderly nun drown, when she got out. She was a senior, now I figured she must have had dementia. It was such a tragic thing to happen.

[@seaglass777]

they sometimes stay in an area that has brought them great happiness and think that they need to stay there.....they need to be reminded that they can crossover now.....tell them they can move onward.............besides, there is no death

[@nicolad8822]

They called that education?

[@margaretbedwell3211]

@@seaglass777 Perhaps they are interested in the reconstruction of the place where they were happy.

[@florentinalily]

You can add pigment to the lime if its too white. locals used to use the local sand and add clay or mud to colour it. The granite can take it; but adding cement to lime to use with any stone softer than granite would be death to the stone. Thanks again for the vlog, always a joy x

[@ryanjohnson3615]

Dailies again are awesome! They fit just right as a nice inspiration break. Thank you for the extra effort, I didn't realize how much I enjoyed just a little a day till they were gone and then back...

[@nelliehedrick3147]

You two work so well together.... I have heard sometimes when you renovate a really old haunted place....it upset the ghosts who live there !!

[@maryannspicher]

I did have that happen in an old house i renovated. Mostly it kept hiding tools! Then I would find it in a place I had first looked for it, even being completely alone in the house!

[@prarieborn6458]

@@maryannspicher Those things happen even if you are not renovating anything. It helps sometimes, if you just say “OK, now please put it back, I need iit, Then when you find it, say thank you. Maybe the spirit was trying to get your attention or was lonely and enjoyed your company.

[@lieuwina]

"Good evening Sean. Good evening Billy" The fireplace looks fantastic and as usual Sean workmanship is to perfection.

[@jeanbobolts3877]

Regarding the voices you hear.. Most likely they are from the outside of the building.. I have two fire places each with it's own chimney.. I have found that certain times of the year people talking or yelling out side sometimes sounds like it's in my house.. Voices echo off or bounce off other structures and filter into the house through the chimneys.. You would be amazed how far certain voices and sounds can carry..

[@Burbankelly]

I like this answer! Also, now that you mention it, I recall situations like that as well - voices traveling due to perfect conditions, when they otherwise would not.

[@fifilaflamme2]

This makes perfect sense. Can't get behind spooky spirits, ghosts and monsters under the bed. Just silly.

[@maryannspicher]

Maybe that explains why I sometimes hear a cell phone dialing! I just heard it last night again so clearly I thought someone was behind me! 😂

[@KrisanthiaMum]

I can hear my “across the highway” neighbors house phone ringing in the spring and late fall when they have their windows opened and It rings inside my house like it’s mine. I have no landline, not even plugs for one 😂😂😂

[@mjinba07]

Nothing like a good ghost story, though!

[@libbybertrand9320]

I agree with using the grey grout on the stone fireplace. I do not care for the lighter color, as it takes away from the beautiful stones😊

[@roseharvey2664]

That is looking great. It's nice the way Billy really appreciates Sean's work. Sean is really interested in restoring the convent and it shows in his quality work.

[@flamezodiac5736]

Sean is such a hard worker. Love the chemistry between you guys. Always remember this is suppose to be fun and an adventure.

[@catnipkitty]

Sean is a one in a trillion...what a wonderful talented man he is...and kind, funny and a good friend to you. You are blessed Billy.

[@melissahalbert9455]

Well done! I agree about the pointing on the top of the fireplace. It is too bright.

[@jpoeste]

Sean is a delight of work mate!!!

[@lorrainehinchliffe5371]

You might want to tell Sean to get his prostate checked. Interruption of flow can indicate a problem. 😂😉

[@DeborahScotts153]

😂

[@pamabernathy8728]

😂😂😂😂

[@terrileyda5346]

Great choice to tone down the point combo. And the hearth/firebox looks sooo good!

[@mscharylee]

You are absolutely right. The cement color around the stones looks much better than the lime on the front top. According to information on the web, there was much evil done to nuns in some of these convents. Although this may not be the case here, I would never want to be alone there.

[@d4nth3m4n8]

OMG i thought he pissed in the mixer.... g'day from Brisbane, Australia

[@ruthscott5166]

Billie, buy Sean some knee pads :D And, yourself also - all that flooring you have to lay. Thanks again for the video. And Billie, my little house in FL has it's ghost - I've smelled my dad's cigarette smoke and my mom's scent on several occasions.

[@debby8428]

The pad they kneel on is very soft. My husband uses it when he tiles instead of knee pads. When my husband stands up when wearing knee pads they slide all over and sometimes move when he squats down.

[@gayfitkin6861]

Hi Ruth. If you watch Sean"s World I think you"ll notice that Sean very rarely uses kneepads while doing his own work. I totally agree with you though. It makes my knees hurt just watching him on the hard floor LOL. Have a great day !!

[@lindamarsden8024]

It's nice to see talented and genuinely nice people working together.

[@monicateeling810]

Sean is such a professional 😄✅ Love the restoration.

[@beakennedy2508]

The hearth is looking wonderful! When it's all done, you should do a progression snip of it from the beginning when it was covered by material to the end when it's opened up and restored. You've done SO much work it's hard to remember what it was like when you found it. Great job, guys!

[@DeborahScotts153]

I agree the grey looks so much better, more in keeping with the the surrounding brickwork 😊

[@marshabentley5276]

Google change grout color. There are products you can paint on the current grout with a toothbrush. There are lots that f colors to use…or there is a whole range of colored grout

[@normamurray4450]

I think that was Billy's doing catching Sean spraying water into the cement mixer, leaving our minds to run rampant.....he's a rogue! I have 2 brothers and a son who would do exactly that! All in fun! Sean, your work ethics are spot on and I'm so glad you're there for Billy....a good team! Wondering if the voices you're hearing are an echo from people passing by and the sounds are bouncing off the hallowed walls? Crack on!

[@Sazwaz2009]

i like the way you tell Sean this, when hes working alone next week, Seans bringing the whole family now 😂😂 looking fantastic! 😍😍 agree with the colour. have a great evening guys

[@stain0269]

You guys are doing an awesome job on the kitchen project. Love the videos and seeing the progress.

[@sarahb2652]

It would be awesome if you could buy an EVP recorder Billy, for when you are on your own at the convent and leave it recording to see if it picks up any voices from the past. They do say stone has a memory and stores sounds like a recording.👻😊

[@MsLinda165]

That mysterious voice, I'd ask him to scare away would be intruders. Maybe the spirits feel protective of the convent, which is 'added value'. They're not hampering your work (if tools or items go missing, then maybe that's an indication they're not happy). These spirits could be centuries old, maybe even older than the convent itself.

[@kimclarke5018]

Such a perfectionist Sean. Beautiful job…

[@lisajahn6839]

Beautiful work on stones, pointing and floor! Love the gag in the intro! Thank you all for making and sharing this!

[@BeALighthouse]

Sean is the funniest sweetest man. He's just unbelievably warm. The two of them are just the purest.

[@deannfausett3923]

Man, the hearth looks so good! I’m a very linear person. If it were me I would go on to finish the pointing on the fireplace before starting the ceiling. I couldn’t wait to see how it looks all done! Thanks for letting us join you in this journey.

[@johnje4285]

The pointing is superb. Shaun is amazing! I agree to tone down the pointing on the chimney breast

[@lisagogal261]

A building that old absolutely has spirits. We were restoring a home built in the late 1700’s and we had all kinds of weird things happen, things moved, bathtub water turned on, you could feel a presence…the first year and a half to two years were the most active then it quieted down. I read years later that that is typical. Thankfully our ghost was friendly. They got used to us and us to them. I would love for you to set up live feed cameras with sound for us to watch! You never know what we might spot.

[@thewilliamseswonderfulworld]

I cannot wait to see what the first meal will be in the finished kitchen. Making great progress! ❤

[@thomasherrin6798]

Beans on toast!?!

[@margaretbedwell3211]

@@thomasherrin6798 Yum. I got the idea of doing that from watching the British comedy, "As Time Goes By". Lionel was always wanting that. I live in Va. and had never heard of eating beans on toast. I served it to my husband one Saturday for lunch...we both agreed it was delicious.

[@merrileeheard3889]

I love how you film Sean cleaning out the mixer as soon as you've done a batch. Means you're really taking good care of your tools. Thanks for another wonderful video guys 😊

[@lynnpetti3817]

I’m glad you are going to redo the white pointing. It always bothered me. Good call. Fireplace is looking lovely. If there is a ghost there, try and make friends, it/they have caused no trouble. Just being a lonely spirit. 🥴

[@nilo70]

Good morning guys and Cheers From California 😊

[@pamabernathy8728]

Another great video! Beautiful work, & team work. I almost laughed out loud at an opening shot of Sean using the hose on the cement mixer. The angle from back/side gave new meaning to streaming video! Would be a great meme (a bit naughty, but funny!).

[@jackieb888]

I'm so pleased you're back to daily videos, joining you at the convent every day started to feel like my job too, but in a good way. I felt a bit lost not "going to work" every day. Thank you Billy, thank you so much.

[@JudithBisson]

I’d use the courtyard as a garden. I’m just not a grass person. I think if you are going to cover your land it should be with edible plants and trees that produce fruit. Not one city in the world can sustain its citizens. Wouldn’t it be great if you could let the town in to plant your garden? Imagine the amount of people you can help ❤

[@hallieshouse13]

What a wonderful idea!

[@neilchisholm797]

Personally I think a rose garden would be in keeping. Lots of old fashioned roses and David Austin like roses, box hedging and lavender and Cat mint would look glorious in that court yard. A project for next winter to plant bare root roses.

[@leerussell6801]

Debbie here, Washington 👩‍🌾. Silly Sean,,🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

The dailies just make things feel like progress is happening! Everyday, something is usually done! And it's great! I can't believe how much has progressed since you started! Amazing job!

[@StonedustandStardust]

Great job, mates. Don't be afraid of the ghosts. They are just there.

[@tina8508]

Billy! Have you ever considered bringing in someone who is clairvoyant to see what they say about the convent? It would be soooo interesting!

[@lhmcd5538]

Sean you crack me up. You’re a bad man. 😂 My house is a bit creepy. Whatever it is there in my house they have been helpful. I’ve had doors open for me and a light turned on and one turned off. Each time I’ve had my hands full carrying heavy things. I’ve just said thank you politely and carried on. Can’t explain it and I’m not going to try. Thank you. May you all please take care and stay safe.

[@donnawelborn-dicus8953]

What beautiful workmanship!!!!

[@claregoudie254]

Hi Billy, Love the vlogs, glad you've gone back to doing dailies. There would have been male visitors to the Convent such as a priest to conduct services in the Chaple, probably a Doctor to call on the unwell Sisters of the Convent and they would have needed tradesmen to do the jobs that the Sisters couldn't undertake themselves.

[@bertieb9510]

I enjoy my daily visit to goings on at the Convent. For me Sean's personality and good nature as well as his skills has become an integral and important part of this vlog. Thanks Sean.

[@teamum7729]

So pleased you decided to change the color of the grout on over the fireplace to match the grout below. ( That light coloured pointing stood out like a sore thumb.) You must make changes as you go along! That is part of the artistry of renovation! Cheers!

Sometimes when you're busy or your mind is occupied doing something, non-physical can communicate with you. You can catch their voice when you least expect it. Sometimes they can catch you off guard. They are always trying to talk to us, but we are just sometimes not open to them. But the voice might not even have been someone from the convent.
