Don't forget that when it comes to those tunnels under the chateaux if it comes down to using a pump, you might also want to get a sewerage tank pumps, to be extra careful with gases and such down there when going down to explore. I know it's common knowledge, but it amazes me that people get excited and reckless and climb down into those places, and end up unconscious and dead before they even realise something was ever wrong.
I came to say the same thing. There are various gases that can be a problem besides carbon monoxide (CO)...hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4)...that can be either toxic or that can displace enough oxygen to result in hypoxia.
Earnest looks so like his mummy. I miss the daily's but this was a good one. I hope the cat hasn't been locked in the attic or basement. Keep us updated.
Ernest was so serious when Billy asked him 'if he could drive the vehicle?' and he says 'no I am not big enough', how cute was that. Was so nice to see Billy and Ernest having a daddy and son time together. That was exciting finding the man hole cover to the Tunnel . Can not wait for the summer till you can investigate, I only hope the previous owners did not run the toilets into the tunnel. Another lovely video and can not wait for next weeks. Have a great week Billy and family.
After all the digging Michael and Florian did, they must be annoyed that you located it so quickly! The beauty of technology can be a great help! Exciting regardless. As you said, it will be something you can investigate during drier times👍🏻
Oh this finding of the tunnel could make things very interesting. It looked very smelly. You are sensible to check where the sewer goes. You could have another issue. I wouldn’t just pump it out until you know what the watery fluid is. Great find though. Good luck with the catching. That new machine is massive and it looks as if Phil did a great job on it. Hats look great. Go Steve and Sean. Great work. Thank you. May you all please take care and stay safe. Louisa.👏👏👏❤❤❤🤩🤩🤩
I actually like the weekly videos better. I had gotten to the point that I would check daily or every other day to catch up - and then after watching the dailies, would fall into the rabbit hole of UA-cam. I was wasting sooo much time! I'm also glad you are getting better quality time with your lovely family 💕
I think I prefer this format of weekly videos ...more to enjoy. I suggest baiting the cat trap with something smellier like a packet of sardine wet food for cats.
Your boys are getting so big. They are adorable. It would be awesome if you could add a tour of the homes on your property that we haven't seen. Please also let Sadie know that we miss her.
I miss seeing you and Shaun noodling about. Always some little nugget, no matter how small. It was like being there during the construction. But glad this gives you more time to dedicate to other things.
I MISSED YOU ALL, DURING THE WEEK! And I've only just started watching but had to tell you that I have unexpected, actual tears of PURE JOY, hearing Billy's voice doing the intro, with the beautiful intro part of the video. 💕 to all from an auld lady in Southern California, USA.
Excellent that you found that access point. See if you can get a water testing kit to find out if there is human waste or any harmful bacteria, etc in the water. Ladt thing you want is to get sick when you explore, plus itll give you a better idea if the plumbing was hooked up to it or not. Fun times!
loved this vid...lots of variety. Re: Puss Cat...try the trap again only cover the trap with a box or a blanket... Really enjoyed your return to weekly...ticking all the boxes 😊
It's definitely cool seeing the kids involved in helping dad. Use one of your battery packs, suspend an effluent pump down the hole and let it run a few hours and see how low the water level drops. Probably need to do that anyway to explore the tunnels. The effluent pump should be able to handle some soft dirt, as opposed to a sump pump which will clog. Or, go hog wild and rent a gas motorized pump and see where you get. Edit: as you said, it may have been repurposed as a septic tank or cesspit, so be careful. The black stuff near the bottom may be decomposing... well... you know. If you're not attached to city sewer or have a known tank, it's gotta be going somewhere. In the US, we'd install a septic tank and a drainfield to let the septic tank water soak in to the soil, but who knows what happened there.
I agree, get pumping! If it’s a septic receptacle now, maybe it wouldn’t hurt! Or if you have any kind of slope maybe you can get some gravity flow syphoning happening. The nitrogen could be good for the grass 😅
Great video, Billy! I love the boys towards the end. And I also love seeing you and Sean outside enjoying a beer. You’re really making huge strides on the kitchen. Love seeing that. 💜🤟🏻🤗🦔🇺🇸
Pump it out so you can see inside. The kitchen is looking so modern but nice and clean. Miss the daily video's. I know they take alot of time to do. God bless.
Really enjoyed tonight’s video. I think the content in the weekly vlog is going to be terrific and well worth waiting for! So nice to see your boys too 😀
I once snuck into a "closed" part of Oystermouth Castle in Oystermouth, Wales, close to Swansea. I went into a dark room, realized it was much bigger than I thought it was going to be, got a little freaked out, ran back out, set my camera on flash, ran back in and took a picture, and left again. Sadly, it was just a large empty storage room, probably, with a curved ceiling. Still fun though.
I do miss the daily videos but this is better for seeing the progress you are making at the convent. Interesting about the tunnel but it would be great if you found one that was open and could be explored. Who knows whats around to be found! Thanks for sharing and hope you have a great week.
I love the intro where you take a slow glide through that infamous haunting hallway! 😂 Sorry you weren't able to catch the cat but with all the pigeons there it must think it's found the mother load!!! 😆
Fun vlog! Thanks! The Progress Sean And Steve have made is fantastic! Can’t wait to see the tunnel adventures! We’ve caught a few cats that have escaped or needed to be homed, so As for Dear Prince Kitty there. Try the trap again but cover it with a box, cats love boxes or dens even with the sent of his human like a blanket. Then try to make it smell less new, rubbing it in the dirt. As for bait try a nice smelly can of sardines they work best or some fresh chicken considering he’s loving fresh squab. I wish you much luck getting kitty. It sounds as though he’s being a bit wild and will be a handful when he’s back home.
Thankyou for another brilliant video, Those two boys of yours are gorgeous, Love the way Ernest said he's not big enough yet ,Definitely lots going on. Hey Billy could you have struck oil 🤔🙂, Hope prince Harfy is found soon , preferably alive 😃
I enjoyed watching this, it was a bit of everything. The Cinvent kitchen is looking good, I hope you find the missing cat. Lovely to see the children again, Ernest is growing up so quickly. Great find now you and Michael have another thing to add to your summer 'To do' list. Well done everyone 💕🇦🇺
Loved seeing your boys. Ernest so cute saying hes not big enough to drive your new toy😂 I really liked this vlog with the various subjects and locations although I do miss the daily ones too. Im not sure you found "the" tunnel but you did find something...like a drain off.
I do miss the daily video's but the content that you have shared with us is brilliant. The kitchen is coming along quite quickly now. Hope you find the cat. Have a good week. 😊
That’s awesome! Love seeing the aerial shots of the chateau and looking for the tunnel. Ernest is such an adorable little boy. Your property is truly gorgeous.
I love this once a week video idea! Now I can sit and sip coffee and watch, relax & enjoy your lovely scenery. Glad you covered that hole back up. I can only imagine how putrid it smelled 🤢Like the hats a lot! Enjoy your week and I'll see you next Sunday 💚
Sure enjoyed the vlog. Love seeing Ernest's joy in working with his Dad! Can't wait to see the vlog where the tunnel is accessible. Great idea with the metal detector.
Enjoyed all you have shown us lovely to see a bit of your home with the boys it won't be long when we get to see earnest helping you all with renovations best way to learn on the shop floor so his first job will be making good cuppa x
Earnest has grown now. Well done Sean and Steve for the help of the renovation. What a find I wonder if it will dry out by summer as like you said the previous owner did some pipe works, Fingers crossed that it does. Billy you have a another new toy again to add to your collection😂. Crack On see next Sunday
That tunnel. Like you said, it was possibly the 'sewage' tunnel from back in the day they had no flushing toilets and no septic tanks. Would be interesting to see where it starts from and where it goes to.
Gday from Australia! WOW the time taken on editing is really showing mate I love the intro! Sad not to have daily vlogs but understand its necessary to step it up a gear and get things done around the Convent! Love the results!
Keep us updated on the cat. Hopefully she either goes home or someone catches him. The tunnel, oh, there are so many things it could be! Another Chateau mystery! It would be cool if you actually found a dry tunnel that was actually use to walk in, leading to a wine cellar or something really cool.
Missing the daily’s, always watching you guys working hard when the Mrs was watching the her soaps, but loving how much more the kitchen is coming along, keep up the brilliant work chaps
Don't forget that when it comes to those tunnels under the chateaux if it comes down to using a pump, you might also want to get a sewerage tank pumps, to be extra careful with gases and such down there when going down to explore.

Oak Island kids going down to save their father and dying too is a tragic example
I came to say the same thing. There are various gases that can be a problem besides carbon monoxide (CO)...hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4)...that can be either toxic or that can displace enough oxygen to result in hypoxia.
What I would give to be a kid again sitting on my dad’s lap on the tractor. I will never forget the joy I got from those experiences.
The week was very long Billy..yes for Sunday nights at the convent!❤😊
Earnest looks so like his mummy. I miss the daily's but this was a good one. I hope the cat hasn't been locked in the attic or basement. Keep us updated.
It's probably sleeping off the pigeon somewhere 🤣
Ernest was so serious when Billy asked him 'if he could drive the vehicle?' and he says 'no I am not big enough', how cute was that.

Can not wait for the summer till you can investigate, I only hope the previous owners did not run the toilets into the tunnel. Another lovely video and can not wait for next weeks. Have a great week Billy and family.
My Ernest has grown so much, he was so serious about the tractor 😊😊😊
Good episode. I felt like a junkie finally getting a fix. Never realized how much I missed everyone.😃
After all the digging Michael and Florian did, they must be annoyed that you located it so quickly! The beauty of technology can be a great help! Exciting regardless. As you said, it will be something you can investigate during drier times👍🏻
Michael and Florian had just found the places it was not, therefore finding the way!

Oh it is so lovely to see you again. Have missed you SO much!
You’re not weird with no life.

Because it’s your vlog, Billy, it’s well worth the wait for your weekly treat!
Very full vlog, so many good parts. Gotta love Ernest saying he's not big enough to drive the tele handler.
Too funny !!!! When you were using the metal detector my phone buzzed with a notification 😂 !!!
Your boys are getting so big. They are adorable. It would be awesome if you could add a tour of the homes on your property that we haven't seen. Please also let Sadie know that we miss her.
105 k in 24 hrs..You are still killing it Billy
Love seeing Archie and Ernest xxx💕💕
Been waiting patiently all week for this, super excited
Ernest is getting so big, the convent is looking wonderful !
Boys toys, beautiful to watch you and your son interacting.
This video wandered all about. Miss the focused videos.
Cherrio, see you next week!
Hi Y'all !!! Missed my daily fix but I'm getting over it. Do like all this catch up.
I miss seeing you and Shaun noodling about. Always some little nugget, no matter how small. It was like being there during the construction. But glad this gives you more time to dedicate to other things.
Love it!! Toys, cats, work, metal detecting and eureka, a tunnel! The little boys were an added bonus!❤️❤️
Love the long format video. Miss seeing the dailies but a longer video with all the updates is worth the wait.
Always a new discovery at the chateau and convent to uncover. Look forward to next week.
I MISSED YOU ALL, DURING THE WEEK! And I've only just started watching but had to tell you that I have unexpected, actual tears of PURE JOY, hearing Billy's voice doing the intro, with the beautiful intro part of the video. 💕 to all from an auld lady in Southern California, USA.
You’re not weird at all.
@@hughgibson9913 But you are.
Geez.
I ve missed your updates since Monday Billy, but enjoyed todays vlog thank you, see ya next Sunday
Good progress in the kitchen and now you can reach the top of both building now we need to wait to see the tunnel
You're insulating the kitchen so well that you could almost heat it with a couple of candles!
Soon candles will be the only heat source people can afford. 😄
Lol! Loved the wanted poster of the cat! Also love the discoveries made at the Chateau! Very interesting indeed.
Excellent that you found that access point. See if you can get a water testing kit to find out if there is human waste or any harmful bacteria, etc in the water. Ladt thing you want is to get sick when you explore, plus itll give you a better idea if the plumbing was hooked up to it or not. Fun times!
Such wonderful life experiences your beautiful kids are getting to experience.
I adore your sons! They are precious!
The horse was curious loved this have a great week petherick crew ❤.
You have two beautiful boys and they are growing so fast.
loved this vid...lots of variety.

In the US, we'd install a septic tank and a drainfield to let the septic tank water soak in to the soil, but who knows what happened there.
Although, calling up a septic truck to pump it all out might help them out more.
I agree, get pumping! If it’s a septic receptacle now, maybe it wouldn’t hurt! Or if you have any kind of slope maybe you can get some gravity flow syphoning happening. The nitrogen could be good for the grass 😅
That intro Billyyyyyyy!!!!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great video, Billy! I love the boys towards the end. And I also love seeing you and Sean outside enjoying a beer. You’re really making huge strides on the kitchen. Love seeing that. 💜🤟🏻🤗🦔🇺🇸
Pump it out so you can see inside. The kitchen is looking so modern but nice and clean. Miss the daily video's. I know they take alot of time to do. God bless.
Wow , the huge tree in the pasture is amazing.
Really enjoyed tonight’s video. I think the content in the weekly vlog is going to be terrific and well worth waiting for! So nice to see your boys too 😀
I'd missed your beautiful drone shots of the countryside. Lovely to have those back in long form videos again.
I like this fresh weekly video style.
I once snuck into a "closed" part of Oystermouth Castle in Oystermouth, Wales, close to Swansea. I went into a dark room, realized it was much bigger than I thought it was going to be, got a little freaked out, ran back out, set my camera on flash, ran back in and took a picture, and left again. Sadly, it was just a large empty storage room, probably, with a curved ceiling. Still fun though.
Still so many surprises at the Chateau ❤
I do miss the daily videos but this is better for seeing the progress you are making at the convent. Interesting about the tunnel but it would be great if you found one that was open and could be explored. Who knows whats around to be found! Thanks for sharing and hope you have a great week.
Lovely to see the boys. They are growing up so quickly. That tunnel is intriguing
Your neat and organized work sites are a pleasure to see. Good for Prince Harry, keeping to things organic! 😊
I love the intro where you take a slow glide through that infamous haunting hallway! 😂 Sorry you weren't able to catch the cat but with all the pigeons there it must think it's found the mother load!!! 😆
Fun vlog! Thanks! The Progress Sean And Steve have made is fantastic! Can’t wait to see the tunnel adventures! We’ve caught a few cats that have escaped or needed to be homed, so As for Dear Prince Kitty there.

It sounds as though he’s being a bit wild and will be a handful when he’s back home.
It’s nice that there is more time for family and the chateau. Back in focus.
Thankyou for another brilliant video, Those two boys of yours are gorgeous, Love the way Ernest said he's not big enough yet ,Definitely lots going on. Hey Billy could you have struck oil 🤔🙂, Hope prince Harfy is found soon , preferably alive 😃
I enjoyed watching this, it was a bit of everything. The Cinvent kitchen is looking good, I hope you find the missing cat. Lovely to see the children again, Ernest is growing up so quickly. Great find now you and Michael have another thing to add to your summer 'To do' list. Well done everyone 💕🇦🇺
Excellent. Driving the new Zoom Boom & metal detecting the field reveals GOLD. Just like mining in the Yukon... very cool 👍
Really enjoyed this one. It was worth the wait. Thanks Billy
😊🏴
Earnest is adorable. 😍 I've missed the daily updates, but this weekly update is great 👍.
Loved seeing your boys. Ernest so cute saying hes not big enough to drive your new toy😂 I really liked this vlog with the various subjects and locations although I do miss the daily ones too. Im not sure you found "the" tunnel but you did find something...like a drain off.
I do miss the daily video's but the content that you have shared with us is brilliant. The kitchen is coming along quite quickly now. Hope you find the cat. Have a good week. 😊
Really am missing the daily videos!!!
As much as I love having a daily upload, this "polished" look with the weekly overview is quite nice for a Sunday.
That’s awesome! Love seeing the aerial shots of the chateau and looking for the tunnel. Ernest is such an adorable little boy. Your property is truly gorgeous.
My goodness Ernest looks so much like you!!
Michael and Billy never looked so much alike until today love and prayers to you both✌🏻❤️🙏🏻
I’m thinking it’s a cistern improperly converted to a septic tank.,imho. Your boy is so sweet!
I love this once a week video idea! Now I can sit and sip coffee and watch, relax & enjoy your lovely scenery. Glad you covered that hole back up. I can only imagine how putrid it smelled 🤢Like the hats a lot! Enjoy your week and I'll see you next Sunday 💚
The approach to your chateau is still one of the most exciting views!
Awe your baby boys are adorable Billy. We waited and here we are cant wait for the final walls of t
Great content Billy good to see Michael.😊
Great varied vlog and congrats on finding the lid over ✅✅✅✅✅✅
Wow new toy! 🎉 The boys are such fun to watch 🎉
Sure enjoyed the vlog. Love seeing Ernest's joy in working with his Dad! Can't wait to see the vlog where the tunnel is accessible. Great idea with the metal detector.
Way to go Ernest! Learn young!❤
Enjoyed all you have shown us lovely to see a bit of your home with the boys it won't be long when we get to see earnest helping you all with renovations best way to learn on the shop floor so his first job will be making good cuppa x
I do miss your dailies. Having said that, it was good to see you and the progress made this week. I think I want one of your hats.
Congratulations, you've found the septic tank! :)
Awesome video! Great finds, lots of crazy banter and loved seeing your little kiddos! Have a good week!
I hope everyone has an excellent week.
This was a fantastic episode Billy ❤ absolutely worth the wait 100% !!
Earnest has grown now. Well done Sean and Steve for the help of the renovation. What a find I wonder if it will dry out by summer as like you said the previous owner did some pipe works, Fingers crossed that it does. Billy you have a another new toy again to add to your collection😂. Crack On see next Sunday
That tunnel. Like you said, it was possibly the 'sewage' tunnel from back in the day they had no flushing toilets and no septic tanks. Would be interesting to see where it starts from and where it goes to.
Wonderful video Billy. Once a week really shows your true vlogging ability . Crack on.
Fantastic video Billy… a bit of everything in your life.
It’s wonderful to see your children as well..😊
Gday from Australia! WOW the time taken on editing is really showing mate I love the intro! Sad not to have daily vlogs but understand its necessary to step it up a gear and get things done around the Convent! Love the results!
I love your long videos, but I miss seeing you all every day!!
You gave me smiles just when I needed them today, thank you.
Thankyou for sharing another wonderful vlog always inspirational and a joy to watch 👍👍
You are all very nice well-meaning and considerate people.
Very cool video! Good to see you, Sean, Carl, and Michael. 😊
Get your local farmer with a dung spreader to empty it in the summer - great find!
Now I'm very curious about the tunnels, great video,as usual. Thank you for taking us along.
Great you found the tunnel. Perhaps you could pump it out and investigate them now. Love seeing Billy with Ernest. Getting along well at the convent.
Keep us updated on the cat. Hopefully she either goes home or someone catches him. The tunnel, oh, there are so many things it could be! Another Chateau mystery! It would be cool if you actually found a dry tunnel that was actually use to walk in, leading to a wine cellar or something really cool.
I miss the daily vibes but good to see how much has been done in the convent.
Ernest sounds exactly like his mother, so cute 😊
Missing the daily’s, always watching you guys working hard when the Mrs was watching the her soaps, but loving how much more the kitchen is coming along, keep up the brilliant work chaps
Ernest is getting so big! Great video!
