The truck has completely given up on us, is this goodbye?! We both continue the plastering process inside the barn and Theo cements the new mini pool down by the well.

Theo and Bee gave up their busy city lifestyles in 2014 to explore alternative living, and have lived in vans and boats since then without looking back! Along with their cat Ginjey Bear they have been driving around the world in their self converted Sprinter van. However, when the global pandemic hit they began converting their abandoned stone barn in Central Portugal to turn into a wonderful tiny stone cottage. Along the way, they have rescued a playful cat called Furrnando and have a wonderful flock of Chickens!

Theo, I am so, so glad you have gone back and formed it to the wall. It bothered me too and I don't have to live there. lol You are doing an amazing job even on the scratch coat. The plaster is going to be amazing. I saw the vision in my mind when you explained it before you started and it is turning out exactly how you described it. And Bee, the job you have done on the beams is amazing! You have so much patience, but it has all been worth it. Theo, the rendering on the pool is amazing. Your masonry skills are being honed to perfection! So much patience from both of you to do all that hard work, and your attention to detail is very evident. It is also evident you both are hard workers and you put your heart and soul into your projects. Your home base is going to be lovely when all is said and done. It is such a joy to watch your channel. Thanks for sharing.
@brianashton1428 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
(Moira Ashton) Just heard you talking about your Nispero tree, lots of them here in Spain. The one with the black marks on, is not because the tree might be sick, that is how they'll go, if they are not eaten right away, they are usually still ok- ish to eat, but you will even see them in the shops like that, So pick and eat as quickly as you can, they have a very short life ---- I LOVE the lovely shiney seeds inside!! π₯°π₯°π₯°

I know what you mean. I never had wet cement for foot prints, but every puppy Iβve had chewed something and I treasure the step stool my first border collies chewed as a puppy. I also have a rubber boot my second chewed a bit off the top, and a coffee table with a chewed corner from my third puppy. I think of the pets I loved every time I look at what they left me.

As others have mentioned, leave the cat prints in. In future years it will give you cherished memories of the fur babies and a time stamp memory of your hard work. Also as others have mentioned don't appreciate the click bait titles, good way to lose views IMHO, and I say this with all due respect.

@alicecain4851 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
Not only that, Theo loves that truck and they don't know if it'll ever by back on The Land. Maybe if it does die it won't be as sad as when Betty was killed, but Theo is really very attached to his "workhorse" truck. Did you see how happy they were when it passed inspection? I'm wondering if they'll decide to rebuild the engine instead of finding something else. The back of that truck was amazingly helpful!

Your work around the large stones is stunning. Much more visually interesting than straight plastering. Leave the cat prints around the pool.

I am amazed at all the skills you have pickup along the way. In nursing school we always said "see one, do one, teach one". For as young as you and Bea are you guys are quite cleaver. I am so proud of what you two have accomplished over the few years towards learning how to build your barn into your tiny house. And your shower/toilet is amazing! Then there is your heated bath under the stars my word that is clever! I started watching your vlog when you were building you new van I was amazed at how you created the old dresser into a kitchen cabinet! I don't think there isn't much you are not able to do! Now you are fixing your soaking well tub. Well good on you! I can't wait to see what else you build on your next vlog!! Take care and hopefully the truck will only need a minor surgery and small transfusion of oil!
@stricklanda47 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
sounds like the main bearing broke up and the engine seized - Worst case scenario you could find a garage to source a used engine and fit it ( happened to me on my old car, cost 400 pounds total to buy and fit the replacement engine ) - A good garage will be able to do all of it and keep the cost fairly low. The good news is that there are loads of old trucks in Portugal to source an engine from. Keep positive and I'll keep my fingers crossed. Get the whole lot done for less than 500 pounds and I'll cover half the cost.

In my mind, I have written a whole series of children's books about Theo's truck: one about the different ways Theo uses his special truck and and how he can change what he uses it for by adding or subtracting the sides of the truck bed. One about Theo's truck having a trip to the city and bringing home supplies. One about Theo's truck having a bad day and needing help. One about Theo's truck taking him and his friend up the mountain and down again. One about Ginjey Bear and Fernando camping out in the truck. Too soon to say good bye to the truck. There are many more stories to be written. You two have a whole children's series there. Great work on the interior of the house. Looks so much better having the lime go to the wood. Great job rendering. Have no idea what "dubbing" is that Bea was doing but looks like she did a lot. Seems like energy is high for both of you and lots is getting done. Just love that you have a property where you can take a walk and find fresh fruit on a tree and fresh water in a well.

Maybe the loquat trees need pruning for new wood after the season? I donβt know much about fruiting trees but we had loquats at home when I was very very young and didnβt take much notice of what the parental units did.

Got a little scare reading the description of the video, but it was only the truck, and the truck will be ok soon i am sure! About the fruit trees, i had a problem with elderly trees, and i must say, hiring a arborist that trimmed the trees and got rid of sick branches was well spent money. My trees are now thriving, just a tip for getting healthy, fruit loaded trees. Thank you for sharing as always! βΊοΈ
@Billio68 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
So, just so you know everything is repairable, just depends if you want to bare the price. Looks to me like something broke/failed and needs to be fixed. Until tear down and investigation it is hard to tell. I work on cars in my hobby time I used to rebuild them from derelict condition with my dad. What is wrong always amazes me I learned as I worked on them. Good luck!!!

@dr.aniruddhachimote5941 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
Wouldn't it be cheaper to tranfer the registration on the Passat and get it roadworthy?
@pattiturner0425 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
Exactly what I was thinking. They may not do that there though.
@barbaraoshea8639 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
Extremely expensive to re register a UK vehicle in Portugal, eye wateringly so. Getting a local vehicle or replacement engine will likely make more sense.
@Scrambler49 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
Sounds like there was a catastrophic engine failure, when there is oil all over and you just lost power, first thought is there a hole in the side of the engine block or oil pan? The flapping sound would have been one of the piston connecting rods giving up and flailing about wildly and punching is way out of the engine. So I am guessing there is a rebuild or a good engine in the future for the truck.
@Ragnar8504 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
Probably well past a rebuild if there's a hole in the block.
@onemorchatykathy 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
So hoping that the garage can find everything it needs to fix your truck. I know how much you guys depend on it for your renovation! Beautiful work on the barn! Nothing like true friendships that come thru for you in the tuff times!
