Billy,please show this comment to Michael. Michael, I agree with Billy. Your channel should be started again. You have so much vision and ideas to share. If would be great to see videos coming from both the convent and the chateau. I'm cheering you on in Ohio,USA.
agreed. I was starting to become interested in your art work! Also, I'd buy a signed picture of Chateau Basmaigne (sp?) from when Billy was printing pics from the book he had. All of you could sign it!
TY so much for thinking of us and recording this reno. I've been looking forward to it since the first time you showed us the basement and told us your plans! Also super excited about Michael's plans for the dumb waiter. The only downside to that kitchen is that you're underground so you don't get the stunning views. It's still an excellent reno and part of the chateau history. Yanis is doing an amazing job!
This is so exciting! I love this kitchen renovation. You’re doing it right by replicating the old kitchen. Cheers to Yannis for having been a great student and now doing it on his own. Have a wonderful vacation Michael. xx
I'm glad you guy's decided to put the primer on the bare metal. I was really cringing just watching sandblasted bare metal expose without the primer. You guys just avoided a disaster. This coming from a Journeyman Painter. Anyways have fun on your holiday Michael.
How interesting. It is wonderful to preserve and maintain .However, you can all dream and visually project so well. I have noticed that all of you who take on chateau s have amazing visualization powers and the will and determination to follow through. Thanks for taking us all on these journeys across France and beyond.
When I was a small child we lived in an apartment building in New York City. My dad was the building superintendent. There was a manually operated dumbwaiter that was used for residents to send down their garbage each evening. Dad would hoist it to the top floor. After it was filled the residents would lower it to the next, and do on. That was in the early 1950’s.
Billy, you have done a marvelous job on the convent. I just love the renovation on your chateau with Michael. You two together is so fun to watch. Can't wait to see the chateau kitchen.
Billy of course we know you are there~ and yeah we miss you~but so happy to see the Chateau kitchen being renovated. I’ve personally waited a long time for this. And going on what you accomplished at the convent I’m even more excited. The library can wait 😂
I love how everything the Pethricks Touch, turns to gold. But its determination, hard work and a lot of money & love❤ Enjoy your holiday Michael. Great seeing your face Billy... Yanis, Rick & dad Pethrick are amazing🎉
Priming metal is absolutely "no fun" but once done and ready for the "real" paint it is pretty easy going. Rick's doing great. Yanis - wow. I have a lot of admiration for this man--willingness to learn and ultimately quite skilled. It takes talent to do those vaulted ceilings. Bravo. Michael the dumbwaiter is going to be great fun to get up to working condition. Enjoy Beatrice and the Lake Country and we hope to see some drawings for purchase as prints.
That kitchen will be worth it when the summer heat comes it will be a nice cool place to make meals without heating up anyones cottages. I am anticipating another awesome kitchen when all is said and done. Great stuff! :) :) Have fun Micheal.
I sure am looking forward to seeing the Chateau kitchen come back to life. Thanks for explaining what you've been doing Billy which is the job of filming and editing, Michael have a great holiday in the cottage in the Lake District. We all know that Rick, Yanis and Dad will crack on in fine style and they'll make you proud.
Thank you Billy for showing us your wonderful face..I enjoy watching you working with and directing the team You always treat everyone with respect and humour..The chateau kitchen is going so fast its wild.
Wow, what a difference. Yanis needed this project to show that he has not only learned quickly but, that he is capable to do the work on his own without supervision. Looking forward to seeing your stay Michael at Beatrix Potters place, I sure hope you vlog it, we have been missing your vlogs. Can't wait to see this kitchen completed. It is going to be amazing.
So thrilled for Yanis- a skill that can take him to so many places. A wonderful skill that patient Simon brought out in him. And Billy your gift of drawing 'team' together and bringing out the best in people!!! The kitchen already looks incredible...and Michael have a well deserved holiday in a place you love and will draw out your creativity. Well done guys
Yes, Yanis is now a professional plasterer and has a valuable skill. Many thanks to Billy and family for their loving support of Yanis and to Simon, the dream teacher. And also to Yanis for his amazing work ethic, dedication and willingness to learn. Well done everyone!
Honestly the basement kitchen is starting to look so much better already I can't wait to watch your progress over the next few weeks. Hope you have a great holiday Michael. I'm only an hour from the lake district as I live in north east lancs which is only 45 mins from Lancaster so doesn't take much longer from there. My older brother lived in Bowness on Windermere there and I have 😂a friend that lives in that beautiful area of the world.yannis's plastering is Awesome.
Billy, I'd love to see any progress on the bath reno connecting the two finished bedrooms, as well as the final decor reveal on the Napoleon room. No hurry, just interested.
So excited to see the progress in the kitchen! Love that Michael is going to visit the property of Beatrix Potter! Doing that is on my “list“ of adventures!
Hi Micheal, I hope you have a fantastic vacation! I am sur you will enjoj it as your lovely artwork is so in her style. Please let Yanis know he is doing a fantastic job on the plaster coat, this is not at all easy to do.
Thx for filming Billy! Wouldn’t want to miss this transformation and all the guys fantastic work! Love it! Have a great holiday Michael-especially with the team ‘cracking on’!!!😊
Billy, you are doing an amazing job in filming & editing. Also, I would be remiss not to mention that you look fantastic, as well. Basement kitchen is such a great project!!! Love to the whole team, from an old lady in Southern California. I also LIKE the white columns! Beatrix Potter!!! WOW!! Everyone will Crack 'On, Michael. What a dream!! I have been binge reading an excellent series of police detective stories (novels), set in the Lake District. Is Cumbria correct? I hardly remember US geography . . .
Billy,Michael,Yanis, and Rick my loves. Michael have fun on your vacation. Yanis and Rick are doing a fantastic job of plastering and painting. Billy you are out doing yourself with the video editing and filming. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love ya guys 🍺🍺🍺🍺😇🌞🕊👍🌈🌹🙏❤️🇺🇸
The kitchen is looking great. It's amazing the progress that has been made in a few short weeks. Yannis has done a great job on the plastering & the whole team has been exceptional. Michael-I hope you will be filming excerpts of your vacation for your own channel.
Wonderful job in the kitchen so far. Billy, if you return to the convent to start on the library which will be very exciting, what will happen to the bedrooms you have started renovating, Gwen will surely not be very happy as I believe it is a project she wants finished. Michele.
Billy, thank you so much for recording the transformation of the chateau kitchen. I know you want to get on to the library at the convent, but I do hope you continue to spend time at the chateau. I know the roof needs work, as well as the ceiling in the bedrooms that had the leak. Not to mention the other unfinished bedrooms and the hallway and the stairways. And the major dusting project after the day the door was left open! It was so sad to see the grand staircase all covered with dust, after all the work on it. Perhaps wait until Simon is back to return to the convent? The library will need all hands! Plus you really need Rick and Yannis in the chateau kitchen for now. Do you have any plans for the chateau, for having some events there or visitors? Someone mentioned doing a murder mystery there, that would be a great event. I have really enjoyed the parties at the chateau that you have shared. I also enjoyed the story that Michael read. It might be fun to have a workshop of writing murder or horror mysteries at the chateau! Or some other kind of literary creation. Maybe even creating children's books! I hope things are well with your family. Perhaps you are wanting more privacy for your children and your wife Gwen, but their continued absence from videos does make me worry, their presence is missed. Praying that all is well, and perhaps you just want privacy. 🙏 I love how much your dad Mick supports your work himself! Michael, I love your enthusiasm for the kitchen project and I hope you have a wonderful time in the Lake district. I know last time you sadly missed your opportunity to see the inside of Beatrix Potter's house, I hope you get to see that this time. Thank you for all the work and plan designs you have created at the chateau. I saw the video where you mentioned about the terrace leaking into the kitchen, I am so glad that you took the time to address that. What a brilliant solution you created for the terrace. It looks like there are no leaks in the kitchen now!
Have a great holiday Michael. Yanis has the true skill of plastering now, plus Rick and your Dad Mick will be there to lend a hand. Billy your plans to have the Dumb waiter re installed is brilliant. Well done everyone 💕🇦🇺
I kinda like having Michael host each episode, and Billy you are fantastic at filming and editing the videos. The kitchen is progressing nicely, and so fast. Yanni is doing fantastic work. Will that be your primary kitchen? Have a great vacation, Michael!!
Between Michael, Yanis and Rick the kitchen is looking great! I've been looking forward to this kitchen renovation since the first time Michael filmed a video about it.
Billy you gotta build a conservatory over the patio on top of the kitchen would be awesome place to put lemon tree and plants and will always keep the kitchen down below dry!
You're doing a great job Billy !! 🎉🎉 Kitchen is doing Great ! Love the white > Rick & Yannis are the best ! 🎉🎉 Love your Vision Michael >enjoy the Bea Time Away. 😉 We realize your Dad & Granddad Helped make Billy & Micheal the creators they are & the conscientious workers that inspire all of us so Thanks to Your Dad & Grand & their wives for making this Pethrick veiwer inspired to Also > " Crack On with a Pethrick Smile! 😉
I agree in repairing the dumb waiter and bells. The chateau would be a candidate for a film set.
I hope Simon is watching Yanis and is proud of how far he has come. Enjoy the holiday Michael.
Does Simon have a channel? Would like to see his home renovation
Pay raise for Yanis...Thanks to Simon for his wonderful teaching and support!
Yanis is doing a wonderful job he definitely deserves a pay raise he always looks to be working so hard at whatever hes doing Simon taught him well
I agree with other viewers; the white does brighten up the space. Have a wonderful holiday Micheal!
I feel like the metal should be painted a beige or cream color to brighten up the space and tie in the warm colored flooring.
Well, once Rick starts applying actual paint, and not primer, the color options are endless. 😊
I'm with Michael, the darker metal is much more authentic x
@andreamalik2961 I do agree with keeping it authentic, just saying it doesn't look as dark and gloomy with the white.
Yes it does brighten up the space. Only the tiles seem beige, so... but instead of white, the supports (etc) could be a hue of light blue.
I bet Simon is so proud of Yanis. I can hear him saying well done. The plastering and primering has brightened up the room already.
Billy,please show this comment to Michael. Michael, I agree with Billy. Your channel should be started again. You have so much vision and ideas to share. If would be great to see videos coming from both the convent and the chateau. I'm cheering you on in Ohio,USA.
Even if the videos are only monthly or bi-monthly. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
agreed. I was starting to become interested in your art work! Also, I'd buy a signed picture of Chateau Basmaigne (sp?) from when Billy was printing pics from the book he had. All of you could sign it!
I completely agree!
I can’t wait to watch the Chateau basement kitchen full renovation! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’m so impressed by Yanis quality of work well executed bravo Simon will be proud of you
Michael, have a wonderful time in the Lake District. Great ideas for more drawings!!😊
TY so much for thinking of us and recording this reno. I've been looking forward to it since the first time you showed us the basement and told us your plans! Also super excited about Michael's plans for the dumb waiter. The only downside to that kitchen is that you're underground so you don't get the stunning views. It's still an excellent reno and part of the chateau history. Yanis is doing an amazing job!
I hope Simon is watching. Well done Yanis. Enjoy the lakes Michael.💗🇬🇧
This Kitchen is Downton Abbey 100%.
I real want to continue watching this Kitchen get back to its former glory
I'm glad Michael is leaving the work for a week........you guys all need a life beyond the walls of the chatueau and convent. It restores the soul
💚💚💚
WOW. The kitchen is looking great. It doesn’t look like a dungeon any more. Awesome job
We all need a change of scenery from time to time. Enjoy. 👍👍👍
It's great to see Michael back in front on the camera! Together, you make great videos, Billy!
This is so exciting! I love this kitchen renovation. You’re doing it right by replicating the old kitchen. Cheers to Yannis for having been a great student and now doing it on his own. Have a wonderful vacation Michael. xx
A murder mystery?.... I think it was the plumber who put the sink in with the wrench 😅😅
Perhaps the body is in the lift shaft? 🤔🤔
I cannot tell you how excited I am to see footage from the Lake District on your channel, Michael! Enjoy your holiday!
Billy such a great idea to film this transformation
I'm glad you guy's decided to put the primer on the bare metal. I was really cringing just watching sandblasted bare metal expose without the primer. You guys just avoided a disaster. This coming from a Journeyman Painter. Anyways have fun on your holiday Michael.
How interesting. It is wonderful to preserve and maintain .However, you can all dream and visually project so well. I have noticed that all of you who take on chateau s have amazing visualization powers and the will and determination to follow through.
Thanks for taking us all on these journeys across France and beyond.

People can also use the “call bells” in their rooms to order morning coffee or whatnot. 😊
Billy, you have done a marvelous job on the convent. I just love the renovation on your chateau with Michael. You two together is so fun to watch. Can't wait to see the chateau kitchen.
It’s so hard painting with a brush over your head. I feel for him. Great work guys.
Everyone is really busy. Love the idea of the dumb waiter to bring it back. That kitchen will look great when it's done. Enjoy your Holidays Michael.
Billy of course we know you are there~ and yeah we miss you~but so happy to see the Chateau kitchen being renovated. I’ve personally waited a long time for this. And going on what you accomplished at the convent I’m even more excited. The library can wait 😂
I love how everything the Pethricks Touch, turns to gold. But its determination, hard work and a lot of money & love❤ Enjoy your holiday Michael. Great seeing your face Billy... Yanis, Rick & dad Pethrick are amazing🎉
Tracy, u spoke for us all. Well said.

You must still be in awe when you go back to the Convent kitchen. The Chateau reminds me of Downton Abby series. Such a magnificent building.
It’s a joy to see Chateau renovations first. Home Sweet Home! ✨💗✨
You’re looking great Billy, loving the vlogs. Enjoy your hols Michael, hope it’s not too wet. Yanis and Rick are doing a great job xxx💕💕💕
That kitchen will be worth it when the summer heat comes it will be a nice cool place to make meals without heating up anyones cottages. I am anticipating another awesome kitchen when all is said and done. Great stuff! :) :) Have fun Micheal.
Go Yanis 💪🏻

Simon would be proud of you Yannis!

Billy, I'd love to see any progress on the bath reno connecting the two finished bedrooms, as well as the final decor reveal on the Napoleon room. No hurry, just interested.
It's all beginning to come together now, fantastic!😊🏴
Nice job Yanis.. and Rick..!! Enjoy your vacation Michael... Nice filming and editing Billy..

❤❤❤
How lovely to see you on camera Billy
So excited to see the progress in the kitchen! Love that Michael is going to visit the property of Beatrix Potter! Doing that is on my “list“ of adventures!
Yannis and Rick are treasures!! Personable and skilled, hardworking gentlemen!! Restoring the dumb waiter is a must!! Such a fun feature 🎉
No matter where ya'll are working Billy, We are glad to just be going along for the ride!
Enjoy your well deserved holiday, Michael!
I'm absolutely loving the chateaux kitchen renovations ... especially looking forward to the future carpentry work. ❤
Simon must be following this channel while he is in England. Sure that he is proud of Yanis.
I’m absolutely loving this kitchen restoration project ♥️ have a lovely well deserved week away Michael x
Hi Micheal, I hope you have a fantastic vacation! I am sur you will enjoj it as your lovely artwork is so in her style. Please let Yanis know he is doing a fantastic job on the plaster coat, this is not at all easy to do.
Billy thought you were supposed to be sorting bedrooms out at the CHATEAU X
I will explain that! tomorrow 😂
Michael enjoy your trip, I'm quite envious! 🐰🐾❤🇬🇧
Thx for filming Billy! Wouldn’t want to miss this transformation and all the guys fantastic work! Love it! Have a great holiday Michael-especially with the team ‘cracking on’!!!😊
Bill, Dad, Yannis and Rick, great work on the basement! (Michael too!)
Billy, you are doing an amazing job in filming & editing.
Also, I would be remiss not to mention that you look fantastic, as well.
Basement kitchen is such a great project!!!
Love to the whole team, from an old lady in Southern California.
I also LIKE the white columns!
Beatrix Potter!!! WOW!!
Everyone will Crack 'On, Michael.
What a dream!!
I have been binge reading an excellent series of police detective stories (novels), set in the Lake District. Is Cumbria correct?
I hardly remember US geography . . .
Billy,Michael,Yanis, and Rick my loves. Michael have fun on your vacation. Yanis and Rick are doing a fantastic job of plastering and painting. Billy you are out doing yourself with the video editing and filming. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love ya guys 🍺🍺🍺🍺😇🌞🕊👍🌈🌹🙏❤️🇺🇸
The kitchen is looking great. It's amazing the progress that has been made in a few short weeks. Yannis has done a great job on the plastering & the whole team has been exceptional.
Michael-I hope you will be filming excerpts of your vacation for your own channel.
You could do murder mystery weekends in the château
Michael, ENJOY your well-deserved holiday!!
Wonderful job in the kitchen so far. Billy, if you return to the convent to start on the library which will be very exciting, what will happen to the bedrooms you have started renovating, Gwen will surely not be very happy as I believe it is a project she wants finished. Michele.
Great to see you Billy❤ you are doing a great job filming and editing but nice to see you’re face too x Michael BRING YOUR RAIN COAT 😂😂
Brilliant job Yannis. Enjoying every minute of the kitchen restoration.
Yannis and rick are doing an amazing job in the kitchen. Repairing the dumbwaiter and bell system to the chateau is the right thing to do.
Hi Billy! So wonderful to see you! Michael and Yannis are doing such wonderful job! Have fun Michael on the holiday!
I like the ironwork painted white. It has the look of a lovely old Victorian sea-side pier. Great work on the plastering, well done Yannis.
The wheel was at top and it was not shown. They had a pull bell usually near the fireplace on room entry
As others have mentioned, the white looks great on the metal. But I can totally see the black metal with crisp white ceiling and walls.
Billy, thank you so much for recording the transformation of the chateau kitchen. I know you want to get on to the library at the convent, but I do hope you continue to spend time at the chateau. I know the roof needs work, as well as the ceiling in the bedrooms that had the leak. Not to mention the other unfinished bedrooms and the hallway and the stairways.

"oy, send up the food." I thoroughly enjoyed the reenactment. Enjoy the Lake District, Michael.
Have a lovely Holiday Michael😘 We Will Miss You ..........
Georgous drone shots! 😮😊❤
I kinda like having Michael host each episode, and Billy you are fantastic at filming and editing the videos.
The kitchen is progressing nicely, and so fast. Yanni is doing fantastic work. Will that be your primary kitchen?
Have a great vacation, Michael!!
What happened to Alex? Hope he is able to come back.
he will be back!
@@ThePethericks awesome, thank you for the amazing content
Thank heavens someone asked, I thought I was asleep at the wheel & missed a farewell party.
Simon has taught Yanis well!
Between Michael, Yanis and Rick the kitchen is looking great! I've been looking forward to this kitchen renovation since the first time Michael filmed a video about it.
Great to see you Billy. A chateau kitchen Reno , a convent Reno and doing it ourselves vlogs back….. now that would be epic 🤞🤞
There was usually a bell by the sideboard that the butler could use to signal the kitchen for the next course without disturbing the diners.
Whoa! What a dining room! That ceiling - wow.... and how marvellous to re-instate the dumbwaiter. Great idea Michael. Happy hols.
Musta felt like U’d never get to this Awesome basement Kitchen
-Blessings, SE Houston, TX❤
Billy you gotta build a conservatory over the patio on top of the kitchen would be awesome place to put lemon tree and plants and will always keep the kitchen down below dry!
No, Michael! 😢We will miss you!
Yanis, tu est formidable!!! Bon travail.😊
It’s great that you are documenting the Chateaus new kitchen step by step…. We enjoy watching it too…
You're doing a great job Billy !! 🎉🎉 Kitchen is doing Great !
