Loved the spices, I have my dads labeler too! Love the SkyeRover! Looks amazing!

[@Hippiechick11]

Beautiful scenery! Abd well done on the Land Rover. I've always loved them, since I was a little kid in the US. Have you seen and good Northern Lights up by you?

[@ruthbaird1646]

I love the fact you showed us how the bumper was held on to Yolanda. My Dad bought a brand new blue 12 seater, safari roofed, long wheel based 1967 Land Rover. My Dad ordered it to come with heavy duty springs on it too. I wasn’t impressed, until one day in Cumbernauld my Dad and 6 strong men he had employed to lift his newly designed bumpers on the front and rear. The bumpers were made from cast iron, were pre-galvanised, welded and powder coated several times in high gloss black paint. I do remember seeing my Dad all the way underneath the vehicle, only his legs were seen when the men lifted them on and held them in place while he tightened the bolts on the underside. Undoubtedly he’d had a frame made that was used to fix the bumpers on to either end of the Land Rover. I miss that Land Rover! I wonder if it’s still alive and running about somewhere in the world, if only I could find an old image with the license plates, but then what, where could I find out? Love the outtakes.

[@sketchingheather]

I loved that tip about being able to buy lids for the Gu pots. We have ended up putting the glass jars in the recycling because we had no use for so many but maybe buying lids would solve that problem. And, I totally understand the satisfaction of making labels, brilliant fun.

[@livingtheskyelife]

I can’t believe it took us this long to realise you can get lids! So useful 😊

[@mescovery8210]

Pringles lids work too.

[@regf811]

How wonderful to see you all again! Blessings and be peace to you and Jack Spaniel☀️

[@fairyacorn4854]

You gave us such beautiful veiws of the castle that many of us would never be able to see without your drone footage. I really enjoyed this videoand seeing you use the rust stuff my oh used to use on his mowers when restoring or mending them. Thanks for taking us all along with you three once again. I so look forward to Sunday evenings and the company of you three. Sarah I hope the ait tight lids work ok but it would still be a good idea to move them more away from the cooker. As always stay safe and hope to see you next week.♥.

[@abqresident4461]

Dear Sarah, As a fellow nerd I want you to know that I alphabetize all of my spices and herbs which I place on three lazy susans in my cupboard (on two shelves). Long live organized geeks! Nice job on the Landy, Willie. And as always, enjoyed the drive to the castle. Seeing the marvelous Skye scenery is a treat. Love and hugs from me in New Mexico USA.

[@jenniferfarrah3134]

Hi to you both. Enjoyed the castle trips, love them & it’s history, & what a great place to build one 👍. You have done an amazing job on your Landie Willie , 😊. Look forward to seeing you both soon. 🙂

[@lori-in-north-idaho]

Bright blue skies (for the most part) on Skye! Your castle exploration was stunning and (thanks to Sarah's research) educational. Willie, you are a visionary when it comes to Yolanda. She just gets prettier and prettier! Loving waggly tailed Jack as usual. He is the best dog! Stay warm, you three!

[@jeannienash5249]

❤Luv ya bunches @Willie Scott, @Sarah and @Jack Spaniels ❤

[@margaretglaser6227]

my gosh it is beautiful there thank you for all

[@KarlGillcrist]

Skye doesn't disappoint from the amazing mirror image behind Willie when he was painting the bumper to the views on the way to and around the castle we are all blessed to join you as you live your dream.Looking forward to next week Karl from eastern Canada

[@lizthompson9653]

Oh my gosh, the beauty of the scottish scenery is breathtaking. Hope your safe in the bad weather up there ❄❄🙂🙂x

[@livingtheskyelife]

Thanks, it’s not so bad where we are. Just a bit frosty. 🙂

[@report-all-potholes-and-ro2712]

Yes it's just a pity the SNP and Scottish Greens plan to trash every part of Scotland including the islands with hundreds more wind farms visible from all points.

[@JustOneKnight]

Im so in love with the scenery it's changed so much with the season, and yet seems even more beautiful ❤

[@kimberlymolitor354]

OMG... I found a label maker just like that at a thrift store when my daughter was about 5. She loved it and "labeled" everything!!! The TV, the fridge, the oven, her brother, all with gibberish letters since she couldn't spell yet!!! Harmless fun and a great memory!!!🥰🥰🥰

[@shar71on]

"We do like cooking, especially Willie" 😂😂😂 love you guys ❤

[@ashleyfearon4121]

A superb video. The quality and professionalism of the filming, editing, narrative and above all else the subject content is quite astonishing. I’ve owned several Defenders over the years, despite their agricultural origins and terrible ride, you will become inseparable as time goes on. Castles, Herbs and Bumpers all in one episode……bliss! x

[@livingtheskyelife]

Ah thanks so much!! Willie loves the landy the more he drives it 😅

[@suepalin9202]

The many blues of Skye and the Islands look beautiful in the cold, clear, Northern light of Winter which is an artist's dream. I also have some of those antique Herbs and Spices and the Gu ramekins, so thank you for the tip about Gu lids! Well done to Willie for moving on Jock the randy bull - I hope he doesn't remember you from stopping his dates with his harem! Best wishes and keep warm!

[@patriciafuchs5970]

Breathtakingly beautiful, such a sad history. Jack is a funny, nifty dog! Live that you are restoring the Land Rover. It looks fantastic!

[@dianebizzell669]

What a glorious day to check out a castle! The new bumper looks great. Good job Willie!

[@AngelaBassett-f8s]

Thank you for another great sunday evening catch up with you guys. Willies making great progress on the Landy!! I'm also loving Willies jumpers ❤ Thanks also to Sarah for sharing the GU pot idea and lids, we have loads of them. See you next week!! 😊😊

[@59kiwilass]

I absolutely love your adventures & I love castles. I enjoyed this video so much. The scenery is spectacular.

[@carlarivas1238]

There is nothing like being organized in the kitchen. Congrats to you Sarah. And to Willie - congrats on the superb job on the bumper. I appreciate the history you give us on the castles you visit. Thanks.

[@susanhayirli8474]

I❤ the special rain cover 😂

[@eileenbecker9245]

Ready for my Sunday Skye.fix❤

[@yannickd.5733]

Wow! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful video. Filming with the drone also bring so much more to the videos. It shows us all the beauty you are seeing. I have to admit that I got a little dizzy with the cliff views, especially watching Jack running the trail. 😮 He is fearless !! Well done!

[@frednorman1]

Sarah, I’m glad I’m not the only one who finds things in the back of their cupboard that are a couple years out of date!

[@leefuller211]

And that's it! It's taken me a week to discover and watch all 46 episodes of this wonderful channel. (All whilst at 'work'). The pleasures of working from home. Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. Richard is a dude and Jack is well, Jack.

[@livingtheskyelife]

Haha amazing effort!! 😅

[@gallovidian2151]

The north of the island is beautiful; we had a holiday in the second to last cottage when it was a holiday let; it was the only holiday where I cried about leaving to go home.

[@livingtheskyelife]

Yup - Skye is definitely a tough place to leave. That’s why we ended up moving here.

[@maggiemoo0328]

@@livingtheskyelifewe were the same! We kept going on holiday to Scotland and didn’t want to leave so we moved from north Manchester to Fife and we’ve just moved again to near Arbroath to a lovely house overlooking the sea. Scotland definitely has a huge pull!

[@pjcat3522]

Snap Sarah, I've the same book. Great herb/spice organising too. Willie great job on Landy. Jack just the perfect dog.Skye you are awesome and looking forward to another trip next weekend.

[@daryllawrick976]

Greetings from Montana! Skye Clan Donald ancestors here! Your journey is similar to mine. Moved here from San Diego and ran into the same renovation and adjustment issues you guys are running into. Love mountains, water and trees. Montana wilderness and Skye are so similar. Best!

[@loulaevert-smith1728]

Hello U 2!!!! Bumper looking good Willy!! Good job!!! Sarah? You have done a tremendous job with the new containers. Tnx for the info on the castle....

[@golfingmags5]

Hi Both, that was super. Your spice drawer is fab and what a wonderful idea to Google re lids for glass containers, and labels great. You are a star as is Willie with his Land Rover renovations. Jack, as always, adorable. Thank you both you make our Sundays.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@eloisebates7827]

I just googled "lids for La Fermiere yogurt pots," - - Thank you for the suggestion! They're too pretty to throw out, now they'll be repurposed. 😊

[@annjarvis9300]

Awww grand you took us to the castle we would never be able to get to these wonderful views n forests without your vlogs we are both disable with different problems thank you bothyo are a godsend tc now the oldies 🤗🤗👍🌟🌟🌟

[@francesquinn8091]

Skye Life,a cup of tea and choccy biccies-the perfect Sunday evening!

[@graciellastokes7979]

Always love seeing Jack’s sweet snout but I must admit I have a fondness for the bull cameo! Oh, and I enjoy following your adventures, Sarah and Willie👍🏻👍🏻

[@lisaholt3627]

That bull was massive!! So handsome. Land Rover has a new smile, looks great. So sad, the stories of the castle. Sarah, I have the same lids for my canning jars, that I store herbs and spices. Really like them. Blessings to you both.

[@heatherw9084]

Amazing drone shots, really captures the beautiful scenery. Love castles too. Used to hang out at Knockhall castle in Newburgh when I was a kid, it too was haunted.😮 Have a great week!❤

[@bonnerdebbie]

Thanks for a wonderful video full of breath taking scenery. Loved the trip to the castle ruins, the new Landy bumper, the spice jar ideas and the cuteness of Jack. Take care, see you next week!

[@cairisV]

I see that you were prompted to visit Duntulm Castle from reading the book by Otta Swire. You may know this but Otta Swire’s granddaughter, Flora, was killed in the Lockerbie plane terrorist attack and is buried in the small cemetery at St. John’s chapel just south of Dunvegan. It is a small but beautifully atmospheric place and well worth a visit.

[@jonap5740]

How sad. That was a terrible incident. Glad she is somewhere beautiful.

[@markp7745]

Thanks for the castle video. We tried but failed to get there earlier this year, parking full. We did park further along the coast and intended to walk back to the castle. However whilst walking around the Hunish peninsula it absolutely hammered down with real Skye style rain! We were absolutely soaked so gave up on the castle and went back to our campervan to dry out. Sarah, what an amazing find are those Gu pot lids......genius, we've got loads of pots, will be ordering some lids very soon. Thanks both for another great vlog.

[@patriceogrady9763]

Loved the tour and history surrounding the ruins! What a treat!

[@alwaysaheart1645]

Keep the little herb pots for Willies shed to store nuts and bolts and nails :)

[@59tante]

This is the highlight of my Sunday

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

My word, clear winter days on Skye are so incredibly beautiful!

[@oitsamy]

The Landy is really coming along, but seeing your old umbrella made me nostalgic for the old bottle digging videos.

[@allicameron436]

your idea for the spice jars is genius

[@martinhall9074]

Stayed at a Duntulm coastguard cottages twice just over the way from the castle. Awesome place. Loved the Withnail quote. One of my fave films. "Don't threaten me with a dead fish" 🤣🤣

[@guadalupeknippen528]

Great job repairing your bumper 🎉👏 .The Castle is fantastic especially when you tell some of the folklore and tails. I must say that your videos are my favorites to watch. 🐕🇺🇲

[@JackthornLife]

Now your officially a Landy owner, you should go and camp at the Billing Landrover weekend to see all the Gucci bits you will need to add to it. It would make great content and give you lots of inspiration for what you could end up with.

[@barbaracartwright2737]

Laughed at the " questionable mustard powder" have you tried using it on roast potatoes? I part boil my potatoes, then drizzle a little olive oil over the drained potatoes sprinkle a good bit of mustard( acouple of good teaspoonfulls) over the potatoes, put the pan lid on and give them a good shake then roast as normal. The potatoes go a lovely golden brown and taste delicious- you can't taste the mustard! But lovely roasties!!!😊❤

[@marianneeckertjensen4723]

What a wonderful hike!

[@faithvansanden82]

Another great video and the castle was amazing I can imagine it being eary x

[@robincunningham529]

just discovered your channel, currently binge watching!

[@bgbaltuth]

Its great to see your beanie back . The castle is really cool and beautiful. Thank you for taking us along.

[@livingtheskyelife]

The beanie is very much required right now! 🥶

[@colinsamson2240]

I love all of your videos. I’m especially impressed with Willie this week, scaring off a bull whilst wearing a red jacket! You’re certainly a Fifer! Willie the Fife Matador!

[@sallyannc3176]

Just as well bulls don't actually see in colour (wee myth about red)! ;)

[@guyrose2239]

Nice 1 guys....another Sunday treat....hope you are not suffering with the bitter cold we have just has down here in Gloucestershire🤗

[@suebrown2238]

Great idea 😀 and yes got lots of those pots too 😂😂xx

[@anthonyharris7780]

Just settling down for my Sunday evening fix of Skye life😊

[@dthomp06]

Drove right by that castle last summer. Didn’t notice it. Must have been because it was pelting down. Good job on the Land Rover.

[@alancobbin]

Jock made me laugh lol,The New Herbs & Spices draw definitely gets my approval,Land Rover Now looking good Willie,another great video guys 👍😉💪

[@arkonite]

Happy Sunday everyone 😊 Yolanda is coming on well Willie. Sarah, great job on reorganizing your condiments, nothing more satisfying. I love my label printer too, although right now i have put it away somewhere and I can’t find it now 😂😂😂

[@eamac2459]

I've been to Duntulm Castle twice and both times enjoyed a peaceful hour or so admiring the views.

[@alisonwonderland4438]

Cool castle! My great-grandmother was called Margaret McLeod, but thankfully, she was from a different era and had both eyes 😅 thanks for another great video ❤

[@sallyannc3176]

Sooooo many Margaret McLeods in Scotland even now!

[@anniebobby9681]

nice video guys

[@maryearll2135]

thank you for another fun adventure on 'Skye. 😂 As usual, thoroughly enjoyed. Hugs and ear scratches for Jack~

[@andreacrashe9894]

*Sarah, Willie & Jack Spaniel, another great video... oh and the new bumper looks great.. job well done. 🙂.*

[@burningblysse]

You two are truly the biggest dorks. :) I love your channel, even (especially?) when you get all cringey, like with Willie's operatic ending. Hahaha! Thanks for the laughs!

[@SarahHovley]

I love the mix of content!!! Beautiful site seeing and history along with projects! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@helenwasher2125]

I so look forward to your videos. And I find myself smiling ear to ear the whole time I’m watching them. Thank you!

I just love you guys. I am always smiling watching your adventures and Jack's antics. Thank you so much for sharing your lives with all of us.

[@suedale1865]

Great drone shots of the castle Well done Willie on the new bumper 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you Sarah for the spice containers will have to start collecting AGAIN as cleared mine out & gone to charity shop

[@Susanpattinson8733]

Jock the bull hillarous and willie waring red 😂great video enjoyed guys ❤from sue and willie Cumbria

[@discovering_scotland]

Enjoyed that! Good tip when living in a rural area, keep a small plastic tub of dog kibble in the car, if you encounter a stubborn bull or sheep you can shake the tub and they will often think it's the farmer feeding time and move towards the noise, plus jack can use the treats when out and about

[@livingtheskyelife]

Great tip!

[@lynjones2461]

Hi Sarah loved the glass spice pots and the labels looked great could you put the lids in cup hooks inside the cupboard door I've seen it done several times on KZbin videos xx love your videos so much you and Willy have such a good vibe and Jack Spaniels is absolutely adorable xx

[@judithmalan1502]

Absolutely! Such a delight! ❤❤❤❤

[@glynnisross7974]

Landy starting to look really good and the castle was awesome in such a beautiful spot. Until next time.

[@paulinemcfarlan-ug5pd]

❤the idea of gu pots, it has now given me an idea. Like the gu pot kids, well done Sarah

[@howardwest1347]

Such a beautiful place to live and thank you for showing it to us. The LANDY looks really o good. Great job. Donna Northern Michigan

[@egravett]

Willie you have done it again….another Mick Aston jumper 😂 keep them coming. The castle looked creepy and fun to explore 😊 and loved Jack’s waggy tail ❤

[@cynthiahofer2903]

Your videos make me smile.

[@livingtheskyelife]

Aww that’s the aim!

[@PJ-fd6is]

Sara, you may want to consider drilling a few small holes in the 'not so good container' tops. Add some non clumping cat litter and place the containers around you kitchen cabinets and other places in your home. This 'tip' works great in humid areas.

[@karenbradley8851]

I'm with you Sarah on the castle exploring. Great job on the herbs.

[@alisefranklin8490]

In the ending….Willies sweater matches your painting… right behind him!

[@JeanStAubin-nl9uo]

Looks like an entire new Land Rover Willie!

[@ShiftingSands57]

Ha ha Willie’s wearing a red jumper as well while moving the bull!

[@stuc734]

Brilliant and braw, especially the footage of Duntulm, have not been there since i was in my late teens, brings back some great motorbike memories with those roads and those views. 🤟🤟🤟

[@christhompson4270]

Another amazing video, a walk, castle and car repairs with new tools. Take care and thanks for sharing 👏🙏❤️

[@HT-io1eg]

Watching this I loved the mix of topics, which drew me back to the name of the channel, the three of you living your best Skye life

[@justmeted1969]

Bold to wear the red sweater while baiting the bull. Nice work on the Landy. Over here we call those tools breaker bars.

[@ruthrobathan77]

You two are far braver than ! I chickened out on going into Duntelm Castle, so it was lovely to see the inside. Any hope of you filming going up the Quirang from the Staffin side? It's stunning (even though I ended up in a ditch& had to be pulled out...). Also, maybe try the walk from Duntelm to Rubna Hunish? Not sure that it's Jack-friendly, though... apparently some of it is a bit of a scramble..

[@richardwhitelock7779]

Willy have you checked what it's like under the wagon as Land rover do have a bad history where rust is concerned !😮

[@livingtheskyelife]

Don’t worry - we’re on it!

[@lynndixonsilva9961]

Brand new bumper looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing your trip to the Duntulm Castle ~ what a beautiful day & beautiful scenery!

[@Izzyic7505]

What can I say - all your videos are great. Big hugs to all 3, especially Jack 🤗

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

you can get lids for GU ? I loved everything about this vlog - the car looks fantastic - huge hugs to Jack :) lids for GU ? I am gonna need 17,652 lids haaaaaa cos nobody can throw those away

[@UrbanGrrl69]

An amazing castle with stunning views even if the history is gory. I saw that Pringles lids fit on the GU pots too. Just a thought if you eat crisps! Landy is looking great.

[@sjb1058]

the "special effects" for the spooky castle are hilarious! well done decoying Jock the bull--brilliant conception and execution! castle quite beautiful and the surroundings are spectacular. cheers till next time!

[@helgavoorneveld1530]

Really miss all the bottle digging and stone ware repairs😢😢😢

[@Ownedbymydogs]

Excellent as always!!!….i mean the eyebrows 😂😂 👍

Watching all your brilliant videos, and this is where I'm up to. I'm currently refurbishing our rusty metal railings. It's so satisfying 🤭. Great tip on the Gu lids too Sarah.
