Hello Mandy, I’m sorry to hear that your shift was so hard. I cannot imagine how much strength is needed to do the job you do. I’m so glad that Gill and I have helped brighten your day a little. Best wishes for the weekend. Rich x
It takes a special kind of person to do the work you do, caring for and brightening the day for others. Hugs to you for bearing the sadness that comes along with it too 🤗🥰🤗
Bonjour,votre travail sur ce mur me rappelle celui que vous aviez aussi fait sur la cheminée en brique rouge du salon La presision et la patiences sont le resultat d’un bon et beau travail BRAVO !!
@danielsoosay1772 Hello! How wonderful to hear from you. Rich talks so much about wonderful times and people in Malaysia. I hope I will see it one day. I am so happy you are enjoying our channel. We are both having some fun along with the hard work and if we can spread some happiness along the way then it is all worthwhile. Thank you so much.
Oh good, tea time with Gill and Rich! I just came in after a long day of outside work to relax and watch Gill transform that ugly duckling of a wall to a thing of beauty! I love your attitude about being true to Bramble. We have a 200 year old house, and whenever something isn’t perfect, I just chalk it up to 'character', and enjoy it as it is. ❤️🇨🇦
@sharonbarrettewing7472 There is nothing better than a good tea time!!! Thank you. It certainly feels great to relax after a good days work outside. Your house sounds like a gem. I would love to know more about it. Please feel free to Email us. It is so great to connect around the world especially when people have the same love for old houses.🥰
I think it looks amazing or as Rich said it looks brilliant. I found it really therapeutic to watch you Gill and the music definitely matched the way you carried on. I love the way you support each other. Have a wonderful weekend. See ya later.
@janinevalido Thank you so much. I am glad you enjoyed the video. We do make a crazy team which suits us both. Rich always encourages me which I do need as I always think I can't do it. I love the faith he has in me. I am very lucky.🥰
Gill for having no experience in the beginning you do a great job doing your lime work! That new wall looks great as did the fireplace bricks. I was really skeptical that you kept that brick around the fireplace, because it looked so uneven. But after you rendered it, you really made it and look okay. And the new wall that you just did looks excellent. Keep up the great work. You DO have a knack for it.I'm very proud of you that you persevered and got the whole wall done! Good for you!
Just finished day 14 of the Coast2Coast walk. Driving rain and raging winds up on the Yorkshire moors…and I loved every minute of it! Now to relax with a lager shandy and watch your pointing artistry. I do hope you got my email.
@janeandclementine Hello Jane, there's nothing like a lager shandy to quench the thirst, but after a day of driving rain I find that a hot toddy does a better job. I am now relegated to labourer as Gill has taken the lead...but that suits me just fine😄 And yes I got one mail from you, so let's see how things work out. Enjoy your weekend, Rich. PS Thanks for your generosity!
Oh you done that so well, and the sheer satisfaction you will have in knowing its all your own work, we think we can never do certain things till like both of you you just do it and learn. Your home is going to be amazing. xxxx Dede
@TheAwakeningangel You are so right! The difference knowing you did it yourself is amazing! The confidence is certainly growing now. Thank you so much Dede.xx
Great job Gill. This is only the 2nd time you’ve pointed and it seems to come natural to you. Other than tiring & maybe an aching joint here & there, do you find it to be a calming type of work? It’s a work of art. You both make a good team.🥰🥰🥰
@sallyflavell6221 Hello Sally, thanks for your kind words. Gill and I have found that life is a lot easier if you don't take yourself too seriously and if we can make other people happy along the way that's a great bonus. Best wishes, Rich
Gill, I especially enjoyed your directing us where to find the links listed above! 🤭🤣😂 And yaaay, Rich fixed the fire! 🥳😁😂 You can certainly add “repointing stone walls with lime putty”, to your list of skills Gill! It looks so pretty! That was a lot of work, but so worth it to restore the original beauty. And I’d bet I’m not the only “mush-ball” that got a lump in my throat, when you spoke about the love the two of you have for “her” (the cottage) and are putting into her. 🥹😁🤗🥰
@murialpack5350 Hi Murial, We are getting soooo professional!!!😂 I am so happy to know I can now repoint!! Oh the skills I am getting😂 I truly do love Bramble. The very first time I stood in Bramble I felt my eyes tear up. I knew under all the grime she was beautiful.🥰
We felt the same here Folks, we feel as though we have achieved very little but where did Summer go this year? I think that had a lot to do with it! ❤ XXX
@csharpe5787 Hello, thanks for your comments. You are right, and regardless of what we decide in future it was good practice for all the other walls that need to be done. Have a good week! Rich
My first wall done 👍👍and I'm so happy with the result. Please tell me what you think. Best wishes, Gill x
Very sad tough shift this eve in the care home,just listening to you both makes everything better.xx

Incredible job on the wall. If walls could talk, it would be thanking you for your loving care. I wanted a cup of tea just watching you.😂
@Ecuador4Life I am turning the world into tea drinkers!!!😂 I really love looking after the cottage. It really is coming back to life.

@barbarakloise6790 Thank you. I am very happy with the end result.
Well worth all the work as I didn’t even realize that was a stone wall when I first saw it.
@janetrothwell4448 I know what you mean! It really looked dreadful. It was so worth doing. Thank you.
Fantastic! Looks splendid. Gill you really worked hard.
@tracybush8115 Thank you. It was hard work but we were well rewarded. The wall looks great.

I think it looks pretty too, Are you going to do any of the other walls? Great work.
@nik2141 Thank you. Yes, I am....watch this space!!! I have already started outside too.
Fantastic job! How many hours was that? It's really looking great, all of your work. Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖
@mocarra100 Hi Jackie, I think it took roughly 7 hours. We are so happy with it.
@@Bramblecottageuk very pretty wall 💖
Even if you plastered over it, you would still have to point it. It makes no difference either way.
@csharpe5787 Hello, thanks for your comments. You are right, and regardless of what we decide in future it was good practice for all the other walls that need to be done. Have a good week! Rich
