The stones over the fireplace are huge! You didn’t really see it until Simon was standing on the ladder next to them, the stones are half the length of Simon’s legs. The stones are beautiful, when that fireplace is cleaned up it is going to be a show piece
That is probably the one that was behind cabinets when they first bought the convent. It looks better than the one in the kitchen did before restoration, and that one looks fabulous now.
Even though the dining room is only a shell, it is already taking enough shape to picture how it will have its own beauty. Walking that wing will be such a memorable treat.
I am SO impressed with all the talented supervisor and his workers, the kind and amount of materials, the tasteful design decisions, the filmography. Everybody’s kind too. Just wonderful.
I can always tell when Simon is teaching! He is right with Yanis explaining step by step how and why. Would love to hear some more of that commentary throughout the day.
The way you guys work together is like a well oiled machine. I love how confident Yanis is as he works. It doesn't matter if he's climbing up ladders & scaffolding, or walking across joists. I loved that Simon was teaching Yanis yet another skill. I must say I was impressed with the size of Yanis's bicep. I wasn't surprised though given how much he does. He's a beast! The dining room could very well be ready to decorate by the end of the month, or shortly thereafter. Great job guys! 💪❤️🤗
Yanis the noggin master has big muscles! Great progress again and I love the name and date in the concrete slab. So traditional. The fireplace in that other room is enormous, like the one in the kitchen. That room would be a lovely lounge/sitting room with big club chairs and a brass fender. You could really go to town on luxurious upholstery and curtains. The convent is beginning to smile again. 😄
Brilliant idea to construct a pub. The convent has to support itself and a pub is in keeping with the country's culture. Watching from Oklahoma City in the U.S.
This is absolutely incredible! The convent can smile again because so much care, determination, and compassion has gone back into it. Be safe always and have a blessed week everyone!
Simon has more guts than I would climbing up that ladder to look in the hold in the ceiling while the ladder is on the wood on the floor. I know you’re being safe but still nerve wracking.😳
The room with the bricked up fireplace may have been for visitors to the convent, such as parents or relatives of the nuns, it was common for some orders to allow this.
I watch you almost everyday, except when I am visiting my Daughter and Grandson out of town and almost everyday I have to “subscribe” again. I sure wish UA-cam would fix the issue. Your channel is not the only one.
Maybe it’s your equipment, never had any problem, been following the Pettrick family since they started. Even when I travel, no problem. I use I Pad🇨🇦🤔🤔🇨🇦
15:48 Simon look's absolutely shattered today :( ....The area re done took no time to fix great work ...The convent is like waiting for a Beautiful Butterfly to appear it's going to be breath taking ❤ with Billy's taste and a hard working team ❤
I have been watching this channel for as long as it has been on. I really enjoy watching something positive with all the evil that is visible in the world today. I'm commenting today because my cat loved your video today. Not sure if it was the sounds or that quick movement that captured her attention, but her reaction amused me. Thanks.
Billy,Mic,Yanis,Simon. Beautiful job with replacing the floor. Little by little the work gets done. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love you guys. 🍺🍺🍺🍺👍🌞🇺🇸🌈😇🙏🕊❤️🌹
A lot of interesting rooms to tackle once the dining room , hallway/entrance, and library near completion. Yaaayyyy,,,we won’t be short of videos for some time to come!🥰
I love that y’all are making a pub in the convent, ever since it was first mentioned it’s been the room in most excited about, second to the library that is
Simon and Yanis are a power team! Brilliant work gentlemen! It would be great if you could do an interview with Simon. Loved the one with Yanis. Would love to know more about Simon, how long he has been doing this, etc. He has taught Yanis well.
As a teacher of elementary kids & a nurse who had to teach pts & families. I VALUE both how Simon explains & teaches & how all the Pethricks also do this quite naturally. Such talent & rare.
It is so satisfying after my day of work (waterproofing the homemade swimming pool, shifting metal for a new drain, emptying the trailer of more metal for tomorrow, and wash it out) then I can come in., make and J D and Dry, sit down and catch up with you guys spending the same energy. It makes me feel like the end of the job is near before the next bit begins. You guys always make me feel better about my efforts. Thank you all.
The dining room (rectory) is taking shape and will be quite lovely. It was interesting to see the other rooms and find that perhaps "repairs" won't be too complicated.
At 13;34, this room would make an excellent common/meeting room with large fireplace. Knock down the adjacent glass wall and you have a large room to place a couple sets of sofas.
13:46 with that glass wall it was most likely a quiet room that people could read or quietly visit with each other without al the sounds of a convent or hospital to bother.
Don’t you think that there’s tremendous potential for 2 ballrooms/meeting spaces on that floor above where the old fireplaces sit? The more you progress with the renovation of this intriguing complex, the more it’s looking like a fabulous hotel/ convention space to me. Keep on with the keeping-on because you’re doing a fabulous job!
Billy the room with the hole in the ceiling could be replastered using new plaster board and skimmed to repair any damage as it looks like the beams don't need replacing . Saving you some money for other renovation projects at the convent .
I don't know how much extra work it would be for you Billy, but I would love to see a map of the ground floor showing the areas that you are working in? You pop up regularly in rooms like at the end of the video today and I have no idea where they are in relation to the kitchen lol. If you could highlight that room on a map quickly that would be awesome!
I’m from the United States I don’t always catch you when you start your videos I watch them everyday when you post them though. I started watching Edd and Anna love them and subscribed right away then they mentioned Michael Doing It Ourselves and watched his videos and subscribed then Michael posted about your channel Billy I’ve loved you all from afar I get a little sad when the videos end because I could watch you all for hours Edd &Anna Michael and you Billy you all make my day a little brighter so thank you for all your videos 💜💜
Great job, all. The floor looks great. Yanis, you put your mark on it. Now, everyone will spell your name correctly. Billy, you are fading before our eyes.❤
The large stones look like breeze blocks to me, especially since they are so gray. It might be nice to see what fire bricks would look like in the fireplace. I bet this was a morning or drawing room in days gone by. It certainly is a very large fireplace.
I was a bit nervous when you announced you would be using a variety of music genres, but so far this last month I have not once had to sit with my hand on the volume button as I have to at some sites. Thank you for your choices (so far.)
My Aunt was a Nun..and the room with the big Fireplace at the end of the Video here,was used as a Receiving Room..where the Nuns visiting Family would sit and visit with their loved One..I bet this is what it was used for.. great video..your making such progress...
Was thinking about these nuggets although tight but enough to manoeuvre what happens when the wood maybe shrinks…if it does have been told that , do some of then get loose and fall through just wondering 🤔
Love the "fast forward" it allows us to see the entire job being done rather than just short snippets here and there.......great job!
The stones over the fireplace are huge! You didn’t really see it until Simon was standing on the ladder next to them, the stones are half the length of Simon’s legs. The stones are beautiful, when that fireplace is cleaned up it is going to be a show piece

You and your brother Michael have the BEST music on your videos
Agreed!
Absolutely agree …
And in Sadie’s videos too
Yes!
Even though the dining room is only a shell, it is already taking enough shape to picture how it will have its own beauty. Walking that wing will be such a memorable treat.
I love it when Yanis cuts and places the nuggets! Best part of the show today is hearing you call them nuggets again!
I am SO impressed with all the talented supervisor and his workers, the kind and amount of materials, the tasteful design decisions, the filmography. Everybody’s kind too. Just wonderful.
Simon and Yanis are such a great team. Really appreciate the quality of their work.
I can always tell when Simon is teaching! He is right with Yanis explaining step by step how and why. Would love to hear some more of that commentary throughout the day.
I agree. I want to learn too.
The way you guys work together is like a well oiled machine. I love how confident Yanis is as he works. It doesn't matter if he's climbing up ladders & scaffolding, or walking across joists. I loved that Simon was teaching Yanis yet another skill. I must say I was impressed with the size of Yanis's bicep. I wasn't surprised though given how much he does. He's a beast! The dining room could very well be ready to decorate by the end of the month, or shortly thereafter. Great job guys! 💪❤️🤗
This is therapy after a days slogging watching someone else work, respect 👍.
Simon and Yanis are quite the dream team and fun to watch as well, the master and apprentice arm and arm into more mischief...
Yanis the noggin master has big muscles! Great progress again and I love the name and date in the concrete slab. So traditional. The fireplace in that other room is enormous, like the one in the kitchen. That room would be a lovely lounge/sitting room with big club chairs and a brass fender. You could really go to town on luxurious upholstery and curtains. The convent is beginning to smile again. 😄
Love how there are mystery voids in old buildings.
Billy, I know it is a lot of extra work for you but I love your cinematography and music selections.
Brilliant idea to construct a pub. The convent has to support itself and a pub is in keeping with the country's culture. Watching from Oklahoma City in the U.S.
This is absolutely incredible! The convent can smile again because so much care, determination, and compassion has gone back into it. Be safe always and have a blessed week everyone!

My family always went to visit my aunt in the convent but only met her in one room
I watch you almost everyday, except when I am visiting my Daughter and Grandson out of town and almost everyday I have to “subscribe” again. I sure wish UA-cam would fix the issue. Your channel is not the only one.
Maybe it’s your equipment, never had any problem, been following the Pettrick family since they started. Even when I travel, no problem. I use I Pad🇨🇦🤔🤔🇨🇦
@mamabear…..it’s happened to me a lot, YT unsubscribed me on all my viewings, it’s taken me weeks to remember who I was subscribed too 😮
Yeah, unsubscription happens a lot! Probably because UA-cam doesn't want to pay out 🤣
15:48 Simon look's absolutely shattered today :( ....The area re done took no time to fix great work ...The convent is like waiting for a Beautiful Butterfly to appear it's going to be breath taking ❤ with Billy's taste and a hard working team ❤
I thought that too
Things will go fast in the dining room now. Great job Billy and Team.
When the film moves that fast, I can't help but laugh. It's really moving along, Billy you must be very happy?
I have been watching this channel for as long as it has been on. I really enjoy watching something positive with all the evil that is visible in the world today. I'm commenting today because my cat loved your video today. Not sure if it was the sounds or that quick movement that captured her attention, but her reaction amused me. Thanks.
"Yanis, the Nugget Master." 😂 👍
You guy's have made such great progress since Simon got back. The dining room is really beginning to take shape.
Great team workers.
I really enjoy the bits of fast forward construction.
Yanis wears his heart on his sleeve when it comes to Simon. Maybe someday Simon can help Yanis in his dream to go to England.
Maybe one day but not too soon - I’d miss him in the videos 🙂
I think Simon would do anything for Yano’s.
Billy,Mic,Yanis,Simon. Beautiful job with replacing the floor. Little by little the work gets done. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love you guys. 🍺🍺🍺🍺👍🌞🇺🇸🌈😇🙏🕊❤️🌹

I think Yanis is a dream. Great worker, sense of humour, easygoing...🙂
You guys are doing amazing work
i think simon is a dream to.
Simon and Yanis are a power team! Brilliant work gentlemen!
It would be great if you could do an interview with Simon. Loved the one with Yanis. Would love to know more about Simon, how long he has been doing this, etc. He has taught Yanis well.
Glue the joists before screwing in plywood. It prevents squeaking
Greetings from Palm Springs California USA. All of you are doing such a great job!
Hello low desert neighbor!
Boy, that's the fastest running I have seen from you 3 guys. Great job.
Yanis goes down in history!
As a teacher of elementary kids & a nurse who had to teach pts & families. I VALUE both how Simon explains & teaches & how all the Pethricks also do this quite naturally. Such talent & rare.
The Floor is covered Yahooo!Anxious to see what kind of Parket you have chosen!
My word I have rooms in my house smaller than the fireplace 😊 Cheers to you all 💕
Way to go Yanis, you are gaining so many skill sets. keep on Cracking team !
I loved seeing the long view through all the adjoining rooms. Things are really moving along. Crack On!
Its coming together nicely now ❤
It is so satisfying after my day of work (waterproofing the homemade swimming pool, shifting metal for a new drain, emptying the trailer of more metal for tomorrow, and wash it out) then I can come in., make and J D and Dry, sit down and catch up with you guys spending the same energy.

The dining room (rectory) is taking shape and will be quite lovely. It was interesting to see the other rooms and find that perhaps "repairs" won't be too complicated.
I think the heat and hard work is tiring everyone. Lots of hard work completed today. Cheers to everyone. ❤
Another beautiful stone fireplace ❣️
At 13;34, this room would make an excellent common/meeting room with large fireplace. Knock down the adjacent glass wall and you have a large room to place a couple sets of sofas.
Yanis the Noggin whisperer😄 and the Nugget wizard😁
Second UA-cam Learning Channel with all the skills of your wonderful team!
Great job with the floor 👍
I love watching skilled tradesmen work.
13:46 with that glass wall it was most likely a quiet room that people could read or quietly visit with each other without al the sounds of a convent or hospital to bother.
Great job loved the entro music and film. So Kool getting it done
Don’t you think that there’s tremendous potential for 2 ballrooms/meeting spaces on that floor above where the old fireplaces sit? The more you progress with the renovation of this intriguing complex, the more it’s looking like a fabulous hotel/ convention space to me. Keep on with the keeping-on because you’re doing a fabulous job!
I wonder if that room with the fireplace was a sort of lounge/salon for the nuns to relax in the evenings.
The nuns would have a hobby room for arts and crafts if they were up for it and it could be used as a school room in a pinch for the local community .
No awkward cuts for Janis and yourself compared to helping with Ryans floor 🙌
Just brilliant work, guys. It is so accelerated with the full team! Crack On!
the many projects ahead is exciting.❤
Billy the room with the hole in the ceiling could be replastered using new plaster board and skimmed to repair any damage as it looks like the beams don't need replacing . Saving you some money for other renovation projects at the convent .
I love your music Billy, you choose the best…..love what you guys are doing.
Billy you always seem to be happier when you are doing the manual work and not just the camera work ( even though that is hard to do too ). 😁
Don't you wish you could just go back in time and see the convent in it's original charm
Well done as usual! Billy you, Yanis and Simon need to lay off that Red Bull! (I’m being silly) 😂 super sonic 😂
You work so well together 👍😘
Those wood spacers will forever be known by you all now as nuggets, courtesy of Yanis!
Only if we could really speed up work.😊
Right?
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all actually work at that speed.
You guys are doing an amazing job
Great work Boy's & Great Filming 🤗👍🤗👍🤗👍🤗👍🍻🍻🍻
Love Sue❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
I don't know how much extra work it would be for you Billy, but I would love to see a map of the ground floor showing the areas that you are working in? You pop up regularly in rooms like at the end of the video today and I have no idea where they are in relation to the kitchen lol. If you could highlight that room on a map quickly that would be awesome!
Hey Billy, How's Simon getting on with his own place? would be interesting to see :)
I applaud the efforts of using wood for the "nuggets" but metal strapping/cross bracing works just as well for cheaper :)
👍Great Team work as always !
You all did an awesome job bravo
Got to have some fun whilst working. Can't be all serious. Love those muscles Yannis.
Love hearing the future plans for the place
That place was called , le parloir, this was the room where nuns were meeting their relatives back then
If it becomes a pub, use the name Nuns’ Parloir!!!!
Oh fun! I've never seen those few rooms at the end!
Ahhhh, mid afternoon coffee with the Pethericks
I’m from the United States I don’t always catch you when you start your videos I watch them everyday when you post them though.

the convent is full of secrets and surprises.
Great job, all. The floor looks great. Yanis, you put your mark on it. Now, everyone will spell your name correctly.
Billy, you are fading before our eyes.❤
Is there a beer penalty for missing a 'crack on' cue?
you’d think so, it’s just a habit at this point
The large stones look like breeze blocks to me, especially since they are so gray. It might be nice to see what fire bricks would look like in the fireplace. I bet this was a morning or drawing room in days gone by. It certainly is a very large fireplace.
great progress
It might be the “Chapter room” where the all the sisters would discuss concerns or needs.
I was a bit nervous when you announced you would be using a variety of music genres, but so far this last month I have not once had to sit with my hand on the volume button as I have to at some sites. Thank you for your choices (so far.)
All so hard at work every day. But soooo worth it. Beautiful ❤
Nice fireplace I love it!
Blimey you guys work fast! It's almost like you've speeded up the film... 😀😎
Wow it’s going quick.
Way to work fellows 👏👏👏
My Aunt was a Nun..and the room with the big Fireplace at the end of the Video here,was used as a Receiving Room..where the Nuns visiting Family would sit and visit with their loved One..I bet this is what it was used for.. great video..your making such progress...
Hugs from ny
I love the work and watch every day. I am wondering why you didn’t demolish the whole floor?
Todays end pose by Simon 8/10 - Simons trademark pose a nice 👍😊
Was thinking about these nuggets although tight but enough to manoeuvre what happens when the wood maybe shrinks…if it does have been told that , do some of then get loose and fall through just wondering 🤔
Enjoying all the action
Thank you for the video!
