To start with I thought why watch Brian’s vlog when he is on Dan’s one? But I changed my mind pretty quick. I love your take on life Bryan. A daily dose of humour, small adventures and a keen appreciation of the important things in life (like coffee and clearing drainage channels). I think Ireland has lost a national treasure and La France has gained one.

I enjoy the landscape scenery, towns, your handi-work at home, coffee's while out & about. Oh, and your commentary & accompanying music choices. I enjoy it all. Thank you for bringing your simplicity, humour and joy of everyday life to the YT audience. Cheers from 🇨🇦 ☕

The pond will be a lovely space. You could line the drain with flat stones which would be quite attractive. Look around for a pond rake, that will help with the overall health of the water. Biological matter (leaves, plants, twigs etc) breaking down is what causes algal bloom especially in late summer. Cutting back the plants at the edge will help with that as well.

Often, ponds of that size tend to have been hand-dug and, over time, become increasingly shallow by the buildup of dead plant matter, turning to muck at the bottom. I gentle dredging could be in order, with attention to preserving animal life within. By doing this, you can begin to reverse the gradual filling in process and mitigate overgrowth of plants within and around the pond. There was such a pond near me when I was growing up. Now, 50+ years later, it is basically as flat as the field around it, only a slight depression marks where the hand-dug pond used to be.

I think it would be quite lovely for you to build a deck with a table and chairs even if its just to enjoy your morning coffees!☕☕☕☕☕or your afternoon beers🍻🍺🍻Such a quaint and lovely little town!
