Trying To Keep Home & Body In Shape
I Tried Elon Musk's STARLINK To Get Internet In The Middle Of Nowhere
We have zero phone or internet where we live...So tried Starlink.

Those rare long waisted gals 😍 #Sorry😂 ✌🏽❤️
Strim before you mow when it’s too long, but nice one Jen, you and Mark are really getting stuck in.
Removals firm!
You guys could set up a woodland experience for kids/scouts. You have the space and resources.
Do you? next frame walking away...
We had starlink, it’s amazing! Love Elon!❤
Hot tub, hot tub hot tub!❤
Looking up to see the satellites…. Who’d a thunk it!
Jen, love yours and marks content. When working in the old buildings make sure to check for asbestos (the old shed looked like it had an asbestos roof). You can pay professionals to remove it but it's cheaper to buy the correct PPE and do it yourself 👍🏻
Fill up that first hole! 😬 Otherwise humidity will poor in and freeze might create cracks!?
That field looks like it could do with some swales. Look into permaculture design. Amazing property though, so much potential.
Expensive per month compared to regular Internet but those satellites are not cheap to build or launch. Amazing tech
Well the point is that Starlink is intended for us without access to “regular Internet.” It’s a game changer out here in the sticks.
SDS = Super Dooper Speedy. hahaha
Looking forward to seeing you and Mark making training videos Rocky style on your fantastic property. Snow running, chopping logs, digging ditches, lifting rocks; it'll be UA-cam gold.
Respectfully! Only a lady would read the instructions and then do it!😂
Great video, enjoyed the setting up of the dish 👍
Looks swell
Great job guys, can I say please please always drill from the inside>out
@jenlewislife What model rocker plate is that?
Those dogs at just 8 seconds in!
They have hard working days. 😄
Elon 🤮
SDS - Super Duper Speedy😅
Just a thought but this place will use some power to run and heat. With access to two steams you may want to look into small hydro electric as you could almost certainly generate most if not all of your own power or at least supplement your solar in the winter.
When did Reading become a City 😉
🤫😄
Great to have a good look around with you. As much as I hate to agree with Mark over Jen on this, I think he’s right about the pool. They are are the very lest a pain in the arse to maintain and usually very expensive as well. Add in being in the UK in an area surrounded by trees and you’re mostly talking about a cold, water filled pit covered with leaves
Like your new place ....did you win the lottery 🤔
Mark sold his finance business. Plus selling their existing home.
Love the video. I was always curious about the Starlink system in England due to line of sight issues. For all the haters on Elon. He has done more positive things for the world than you will ever do or know. Keep the hate on X or Bluesky and not here.
The big leafed plant at the beginning I have seen at an arboretum, something from Australia perhaps even rare.
You two make me smile. Your videos are bright spots in the week.
Not to be a moaning Brit, but I am. Please wear safety glasses. ❤
Thank you! ☺️
And I know, we need to up our safety game!
Time to upgrade from the slow eero mesh stuff next to takes full advantage of the speed
What would you suggest?
@@jenlewislife Something wifi7. Maybe 2 tplink wifi7 routers with easy mesh to connect them together. Should be faster an penetrate those old thick walls better
Damn that is pretty cool!
You should do DIY works topless.
Sees the word Elon. Thumbs down 👎🏻
I dislike Elon as much as the next guy but hope you aren't posting this from an android, apple or microsoft device because they're all as shady as each other, they're just smart enough to keep their mouths shut
That wall is as thick as Mark! 😂 only joking Mark 😆👊
You’ve sold me with the plan when you mention “wood fired hot tub”
American here…Elon will NEVER get a penny from me!! Madman/sicophant, to the core.
Very true - this is good tech though!
You must be a Democrat consuming CNN/MSNBC.
You did a great job, Jen.
7:12 Lemme guess, Mark, YOU do the editing? 😂
Great result! Please wear safety glasses when using power tools though 🙂
My thoughts exactly! Need to protect the eyes. Ear plugs would also be a good idea as well.
Musk is an absolute moron, riding on the backs of others' innovation and work, who is proof that modern culture values completely the wrong things and persoanlity traits...
Love your pluck in taking on this task yourself, but are there no contractors who could have helped with this? Or was it too expensive? Best of luck!
Plenty of people out there who could of helped, but we wanted to do it ourselves. 😊💪
Bravo! And you certainly found the largest drill bit I’ve ever seen. 😂
Can we see more of Mark’s watch collection in that case
4:50 close your eyes…
I have Starlink. It's great most of the time. I do occasionally have issues during snowstorms.
Yet to have proper snow, so fingers crossed it still works. 🤞
Great video and looking forward to what you are doing next. Jeff Geerling (UA-camr) has a great project which uses as Raspberry Pi to continuously monitor your Skylink connection and it also deploys Pi-Hole for whole home ad blocking. Really highly recommend for an early warning of Skylink slow downs.
Have a look at flood levels reached from that stream. You might find it was that high due to flood risk.
The internet in our cottage (north east Scotland) is 2mbps 😂
😂🙈😂
Fun video. Comment for the algorithm.
Brilliant video, been looking at skylink (autocorrect) for a while, quick question is it the standard version. Love love love the videos, house looks so fab excited to see your progress
Thank you. And yes, standard version. 😊
Hmmm, a lot of water around, hope it's not had flooding issues, that said what a fantastic project.
