Disaster strikes at the chateau Ep 12
In this episode, disaster strikes and we end up in the accident and emergency as things nearly take a very serious turn. We finally demolish the last parts of the wine vats. Some friends join us to explore the Dordogne river by canoe, and we finally have someone who knows what they are doing as we commence the enormous task of sandblasting every inch of the interior of the chateau walls to breathe new life into the chateau.

Thank you for wearing great breathing protection!
You made such a difference by sand blasting the walls. I remember before that the nasty fall and had to go hospital thankfully all was OK 😊 loved watching you have such a soothing narrative voice 😊

Thank you, Annette. ☺️ other than the mess, we have no regrets sandblasting the walls. As you say. It made such a difference 😊 thanks for the feedback on the narration. 🙂
Walls look wonderful…lots of pointing required. Yikes

I genuinely felt the shock twice. Once for Nicole and once for Noah. So thankful 🙏🏼
🙏for your family. You are a smart person to get the sandblasting! The place looks amazing and it will help you get in faster. Take photos of the pages and have it translated.

Thank goodness Nicole and Noah were unharmed albeit some discomfort for Nicole. Bruised ribs hurt! It is good that you hired Kurt for some of the sandblasting. Sometimes it’s wiser to outsource a job although it will cost money. But some things are just too much. By doing so you give someone else income which is so needed in this economy. Everyone is happy! It’s wonderful that your friends are helping. And it is good to learn about your beautiful area by land and by river. And the food and wine! All work and no play burns one out quickly! I really enjoy witnessing your excellent adventure vicariously.

At last the vats are gone. What a humungous job. Glad Nicole is okay, bit scary for you both. The sand blasted walls look fabulous. Best wishes.

I can hear a collective sigh of relief! 😬 it was a ridiculous job, but proud to have done it. We are soooo happy with the walls ☺️
Bonjour. Je ne pense pas que le parement de pierres a été conçu pour être laissé apparent, les pierres étaient probablement recouvertes d'un enduis de chaux. In English: I don't think the stones were meant to be left exposed but covered by some sort of lime plaster.

Bonjour 👋🏼 je ne sais pas. Mais nous pensons que c’est très jolie de garder quelques murs avec la pierre apparente et avec des joints à la chaux. Nous en avons discuté avec un mâcon Compagnon et des architectes qui étaient d’accord avec nous. 🤷🏽♂️

So glad Nicole’s ok. I love watching your progress. You might want to try not having your mic so close to your mouth when you narrate. Your voice sounded a bit muffled. It was hard to understand what you were saying at times.

@@thechateauadventures oh no! I’m sorry. I love what you two are doing with the chateau and your story. I just didn’t want to miss a word. Y’all are doing a great job and I love following along.

No need to apologise. It was super helpful feedback 😊 I will figure out a different way to record it should that happen again.
Is there anyone you can adjust on the sound. The commentators sounds a little muted/hollow/flat.😊 I have to turn captions on to catch each word.

Apologies, I was having to narrate more quietly than usual as I didn’t want to wake Nicole and Noah in the next room 🙂
Pour la lecture. Il faudra des années de pratique , j en sais quelque chose😊😊😊ce serait plus simple de demander au cercle généalogique du département de vous aider, des historiens se trouvent parmi eux ,et seront vous aider 😊😊😊

Why do you show ONLY close up view of the château? I would like to see the château or perhaps it’s a big farmhouse. Either way, I would like to see it

Other episodes have wider views of the chateau. However, we didn’t show a wider shot in this episode 🤷🏽♂️ We don’t yet have a drone so can’t take arial shots, although episode 10 has some footage with a drone from when we were on the chateau DIY show.
How long will it be until we’ve caught up to the present day please?
