the way they split granite in Cornish mining, was drill a series of holes and drive in wedges, many workings still visible today, Cornish miners were known for mining the toughest ground on the planet.. house is looking ace..
Hi, Yes we done this way as well some stones :)
Wish I could get some of that white onions, can't wait for your program every week, greetings from South Africa
Ahhh thank you :) I am not sure how I got them so big !!! Luck !! :) or maybe the person who looked after garden used some kind of fertiliser to make everything grow big and it still in the soil !!! But If I will grow them like that next year then I will take the credit LOL Gxxx see you on Saturday
Your roses are absolutely gorgeous! ❤ Keep on keepin' on 🎉
Thank you :) I give them food and water as well ... I try to look after them but Summers sun and heat is very strong ...
You both are amazing at what you do together to build your home. G is incredible, she will try any type of work and I wait for your videos to come out each week. Love to both of you from Australia ❤
Thank you Pat !!! You are very kind !!! See you on Saturdays video !!!! It will be a good one !!!! As I will tackle something new !!! G xxx
Nice watching you two. G is such a hard working person. Coming winter you will be in your house and then you can sit on that porch and thinking back on all the hard work. Outstanding veggies.
Thank you Anna !!! I would love that .. But it's no rush !!! When will be will be ;) G xxx
Beautiful harvest for some beautiful people ❤❤❤
Thank you Joanne !!! what a lovely thing to say !!! G xxx
It is fun watching you guys ,soon all this necessary labour intensive work will be be over, have fun .
Hello .. oh I hope so .. but With never ending plan changes in Andrius brain .. I don't think we will be ending soon .. you will see what idea he got now .... spoiler alert .. it's more digging :) :) Gxx
Have a great day.🖐
You too!
Graniet is een erg harde steensoort. Ik heb respect voor de steenhouwers uit vroegere tijden die al die stenen hebben gemaakt voor jullie huisje
Definitely !!! we will have respect for them for the rest of our lives !!!! Granite is very heavy stone .. it looks small but they are heavy and they created art as well !!!
Garlic Looks fabulous
Onions look great
Thank you :)
c'est toujours un plaisir de vous re trouver pour ces vidéos quotidiennes, bonne continuation .
Thank you very much :) very kind of you Gxxx
Wonderful work. Keep smiling beautiful couple
Thank you :) We will
It's great to have that extra power bank! Good work getting your space cleared and making the rocks usable for your other purposes.
Thank you !!! we are very happy to have extra energy source !!! :)
You can make a two or three-tier deck to cover the big stones.
:) But we would like to have flat surface ... Andrius got time .. he can spend week chipping them ;) Gxxx we got time :)
Wow looks at them onions 🧅😍
Thank you !!! I am still amazed they grew so big (not all of them .. but got some big ones !!!! ) Gxxx
@@portugalitis You should be proud Dedre. Love all the way from South Africa
Thank you Sonya xxxxx
Love your videos and how well you work together. Going great guns, well done!
Ray it's all acting ;) Just joking !!! I am guessing Andrius trained me well ;) Thank you for watching us :) Gxxx
love ur buildin ,looks so cute ,cant wait for the roof and the build to get on , u wrk great together xxx
Thank you !!!! Very kind of you ... I can't wait either ... G xxx
Little advice: First put the soft stones in place. Then jackhamer them. So you don't have to put the little stones in the tractor by hand.
Thank you :) will know next time ;)
Time for your next fishing trip ,catching big fish
Yes please Andriau !!! I think we been waiting for this a long time !!! G ;)
if you fill the porch with all the rubble you will save using alot of concrete and help clean up the mess. looking good cant wait for the roof to start. your hard work is paying off
Hello !!! that's what we done the next day .. we used more stones and less concrete !!! we learned from day before !!! :) G
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, good work 👍😁.
Thank you Arjan !! :) see you on saturday !!! Video will be longer ;)

Good sized onions G.
Not bad ;) If I only knew why they so big I would love to get them again like that !!!! ;) G xx
hi guys,great to see allpowers sponcering you,weve got the ecoflow pro and thats brill,when we was in castelo branco we bought 3 solar panels,total 1500 watts for only 360 euros,looking forward to seeing your elecs when the house is done,great vid see you in next vid,good luck.
Hi Shane !!! Yes them panels from LM (I hope that's where you got them ) is so good and very affordable price !!! we got two of them for caravan as well !!!
Great video guys Andrius i dont no how you find the ti.e building G a kitchen doing the patio deck and growing all that lovely veg the onions were amazing may thats why women live longer than men 😂😂😂 you both are doing an amazing job take care ❤
NO COMMENT LOL !!!!! Thank you for laugh which you always provide Julian !!!! G xxx
Your spring onions are looking good 😂😂
Yes Paul !!!! they not that bad this year LOL Gxx
Goodness G, green fingers indeed! Great result with the onions. Rather than trying to drill out the rocks could you not build a small deck over that area? You could even have a deck on 2 different levels to add interest. Bit concerned, G you don’t appear to have ear defenders, you may not be drilling but you are working right next the drilling!❤
Hi Rosemary ... my hearing is perfect maybe even to perfect !!! as I can hear little scratch few meters away ... will see about decking .. I am sure we will do our best ... I bet our plans might change ... ;)
AllPowers are great,, I have been working with them for years,, and also got the S2000 with the SP033 200W panels as my first Allpowers setup :-) still working great!
Suggestion,,, take your laser level, and set it up to be 1 cm lower than that big rock,, and then take off one cm,, every day,, or you can each take off a cm. 🙂
Or we could use the dynamite (as someone suggest it) and then we won't have rock or the house ;) I think your idea is very good Thank you :) And thank you for watching us !!!! G xxx
Gafis tai prajuokino mumi..... kai Andrius su perforatorium akmeni skalde prie Gafio uzpakalio,tas net neatsisuko. Nulis demesio 🤣😂🤣😂🤘 Tai bent gigantiski svogunai💪💪👍Geras derlius🌱🌱🌱
nu jo jis pasitiki kad nieks nelies jo ... :)
nice video guys, those rocks are a lot of work, but you are getting there. nothing comes easy.Hope it is not to warm over there
Hey Tina .. it was very hot them 3 days near 40 degrees ... now will be cooler again yey !!!
Busy Busy👍👍😁Congrats on the New Power station serup🏁🏁🏁🔧🛠️🔧Allpowers stepped up, Hope the Truck gets fixed soon, Prayers🙏🙏
Hello !!! Andrius forgot to insert half days work in to this video .... and to say that our truck was fixed and we collected yesterday !!!! The mechanic is so good it only took one day to fix it !!!! we are very happy to have our truck back :)
Will you add that bit of video in the next one? I imagine you, Giedre, drove the truck to or from CB?!
Yes he will !!!! It was a good work out as well shame he forgot to include in this one .. but he said he will add to saturdays .. Yes I was driving Truck to CB ... this was first proper time I drove mechanical car ... but I done good so that's why I decided to go to Portuguese classes and finish them .. as A don't want to go anymore so it means I will drive on my own !!! YIPPY !!! ;) Hence I done that post on Facebook on Tuesday ;) Gxxx was a big day for me :)
Well done, you.. you're so adaptable, Giedre..and for the continued language course.. xx
I had to !!!! I want to finish it :) Gxxxx
Instead of the drill, be quicker to use dynamite. Just a thought lol.
Ok .. so when you won't see us on saturday .. or you see half barn missing you know what happened LOL
😊❤❤
Thank you :) Like always Gxxx
❤❤
Thank you :) Gxxx
👍
Thank you :)
bonjour des troues du ciment expansif des roches fracturer et sans bruit
Hello :) Andrius jus loves using jack hammer what can I say ... I will let him do his thing ;) G xxx
Dear man and wife do you use a hydraulic stone splitter for the big stone in your house you do so well on your land
hello, we use jack hammer :)
Think you need a more powerful jackhammer 😮
Yep!
Who should we ask to get that ;) Che che
:)
All that digging in concrete is so soul destroying. Wouldn’t you like to build a small deck area in that bit.
I was thinking the same
We would like to have flat area .. I think If we would do that deck when in a future we would though ohh we should of done extra work for a week and all would be different .. so we will dig (well andrius will cha cha ) We done so much so far so this is not a big difference !!! Gxxx
Bless you :) Thank you for caring ...
Why dont you roll the rocks onto the road and break them up there?
I though that was the plan .. but I think he changed his mind ;) He just want's extra jobs !!! Gxxx
Where are G’s ear defenders, you don’t want to damage your beautiful wife’s hearing, do you, come on now, buy her some please 🙏🏻
Bless you :) My hearing is a bit to good .... sometimes I wish could not hear some things ;) G xxx
As the video began I thought.. these guys should have an off grid power sponsor.. I had names in mind and as I watched, there was AllPowers. I did not know that name, but hey there they were providing an alternative power source for you. Fantastic ❗️❗️
G, your garden is wonderful.. I wish I had your bounty.🧅🧅
A, it’s good to see you have been wearing shoes, even if it’s not steel toed..🌸❤️
Much love to you both🐨🐨. And Guffy🐶
Hello Lorraine !!! You got some special powers then ;) Can you wish for something else now :) :)
I was very surprised and happy with them onions .. but I can't wait for tomatoes now ... can't wait to start making all sorts from them !!!
