Doing a bit of tiling in our French Renovation

- We picked up the tiles that will complete the kitchen floor and also go down in the bathroom. I had thought this would be a really quick job but it did take a lot longer than expected given it is only 1.5 mt sq.! I put a metal edge on the floor and I had a nice square edge to work from so that helped a lot but I really had to pack it up to get to the correct height so used way more adhesive than expected. All in all good practice for doing the bathroom as I hadn't tiled in quite a few years. Luck was also on my side as it finished on a full tile at the door. Just need to get a cutting disc now and do the cuts and bobs your uncle.
I smiled when that door glided over the tiles fabulous job and I just love seeing your wee boys running about happy as can be
I got very lucky with the door Annie as I didn't have a straight edge to measure off so very happy it closed. I'll probably need to cut a little more off at some point and put some sort of seal under it to keep the wind out!
I just love these vlogs ! Precious moments with your little helpers and the tiles look fab
Thanks Tracey. It's good to be back at it. We had a look back at few vlogs the other night and it's mad how much has changed.
Oh yes.....perfect tiles for your entrance, and your little helper, on your back, pinching your specs to wear himself.....priceless. What wonderful memories recorded for posterity too!
Thanks Sheila. Really happy with them. Just need to put in the last few now and grout them.
I see that William wants to be a cowboy - having fun climbing on your back. Not easy to complete tasks when you have two young boys. Good work.
They don't help the workflow that is for sure Brian!
The tiles look great with the door! Nice choice.
Thanks Moe. The door will be getting a full renovation at some point with some nice double glazing and new seals.
Great to see you back … Tiles are perfect Dave .. great job . Hi William Maeva & George 😘
Nice tiles! I chuckled when you broke the white tile and said "Okay, so that didn't work." You have a great sense of humour, I've said it before but I'm saying it again. Good little helpers you have there. Mina and Mana were snoozing instead of helping? Wow those tiles just fall beneath the door - good job and it really looks nice.
I don't really have the time to mess around with my ideas at the moment Tracy so if it doesn't work first time I just have to crack on! It was the same in the bathroom with the mirror. I didn't have materials to mount it off the wall so just put it up and I'll come back to it later! Mina and Mana were banished to the garden while I was tiling! They would have been gone out the front door in a flash and off on an adventure.
I do like those tiles good choice
Thanks Sylvia!
Love the tiles and the helpers!
Thanks Stacey.

That was his electric car that day!
Are you finally getting Spring weather? Great tile design. Have a nice week ❤❤
Hi Beverly. We've had a taste of summer with 26 degrees at the weekend but today it's back to 11 degrees. Crazy how fast it can change. The house is retaining the heat now though which is great and it makes a huge difference.
Nice tiles and it looks like you have a new camera boy to help with all the recording and editing, so you can get on with putting the house back together. 🇮🇪☘️
He's a natural with the camera although he did take an awful lot of feet shots when he was learning!
Nice choice!
Thanks Catherine!
Good progress, nice tiles, shame you broke the white one (there's a nack to cutting tiles), but I think a border would have made it look too busy.
Probably a blessing I broke it as I do tend to over complicate things sometimes!
These videos never cease to amaze me when I see men struggling to do jobs with children running wild and no wife to be seen. 😡
Definitely no kids running wile here Heather. Just kids being kids! Curious and eager to help.
