Hello lovely friends. It's been a long time coming but here we are with our first video of 2024. Thank you for all your kind comments asking how we are. We're touched to know you've been thinking of us. There have been a number of reasons why it's taken so long to get started, but all is explained in the video. Big hugs to you all. Jill & Noel ... (and Roy) xxx

I'm sorry you went through such a difficult time with your house sale. Moving house, selling a house and renovating a house in Ireland - all at the same time! Sheesh! I am amazed at how you've cleared the land around the house it's hardly recognizable and looks much more manageable now going forward with your plans. I'm afraid to hear about what the builder had to say about the footing. Scary cliffhanger! 😨

I was wondering when you'd be back! Nice to see you! Spring is slow up here, still in the 30s F at night, so seedlings are all inside, keep potting them up. Are you going to say that there are no footings, just stones on which some sills were laid? They dug a trench and piled stones? How's the sweetgum tree, did it make it through the winter? Glad your house sold!

Lovely to have you back. 31 years ago I was in your position. Talk about a battle to move forward and keep up the farming too. I know exactly what the Engineer said. But listen, the problem was overcome satisfactorily and the house was restored. Only problem now is I need to upgrade a bit and also the storms have damaged my roof, the entire 52' length of it. The challenges never stop. 😂

I do hope it's not too bad with the footings, it doesn't sound good... I don't know anything about native trees in your area, in Ireland but I think you should plant mostly natives as much as possible, including anything that fruits, a flowering meadow sounds absolutely great & beneficial, i love it when i see on many KZitems how they have left areas of their properties go just to see what pops up & many are surprised. please share again soon, the suspense is already killing me! thanx so much for coming back, looking forward to actual renovation of the old stone building ... (but would like to see what you finished in the home you're currently living in too, it was a mess when you left us) thanx for sharing

Glad to see you back, you know what, maybe all the delays with selling your house are a godsend. Because the weather was so crap that your building would have been delayed. Saturated ground, high winds, etc. Not ideal building weather. Hopefully now with the better weather, things will start to move along nicely. Footings or no footings that is the question😅😂

@@TheHiddenHouseIreland I would do all of the native trees and shrubs. I would put the willows in an area that gets a lot of water. Put an oak or two in an area that has a lot of room to grow and expand without jeopardizing the house or views. I would plant flowering trees on the drive in and out both sides to make majestic entry to your home and property. Plus flowers everywhere to beautify the area.

Nice to see you back. Hmmm, cliffhanger and yes - I am ANGRY at you for making me wait for the answer! Haha, teasing - well maybe a bit angry...kidding. Okay, so is it possible the house was built right on the ground with no foundation because not too far down there's water? Being used to basements in our modern world, or at the very least a "footing" of some type, it could make a person feel uncomfortable knowing water is not too far beneath but it drains naturally and won't come up to flood you but that's only a guess.
