Lovely also to see the highland cattle again. The friendship between them and the pig is wonderful to behold! This video was really special with the various projects you showed us and the dramatic story of the near tragedy.

Now I wish in addition to the “Like” button there was a “really like” button 😊

Glad to see the cows are happy and safe! 🥰

Your pig's attraction to the Highland "coos" mirrors the escaped pig from The Pethericks that was found socializing with the neighbor's cows. As commenters there noted, pigs are very social creatures and will seek out companions if they don't live with other pigs. But you probably know that. :D

Yep. Marc's a proper, trained, registered farmer :-) The only reason our pig is alone is that he's a rescue pig and we weren't set up for more when we unexpectedly took him in. We had another, but he escaped and never came back. We'll sort the pig situation as soon as we can!

Both of you channels have improved greatly ! I love them both so much and I’ve learned so much from you ! bravo !

It will dry a little lighter but it's so pretty as it is, I agree!

I’m old enough to remember when we had a blue bag (a small solid chunk of blue in a small cloth bag) in the laundry. It was dissolved in the final rinse. This was before we had an automatic washing machine. I can also remember a TV ad for washing powder that went “the blue beads bleach and whiten, the white beads clean and brighten”. It’s funny how such old memories popped into my head when Amy mentioned blue in relation to laundry.

Excitingly close and I’m loving he fact you will soon be living in the coach house ❤

Another great video. Loved watching you move the stubborn cows and the friendship piggies has for them. Really interested to hear about the colour choice, which looks beautiful and lightened the space so much. You are great custodians for this beautiful estate. ❤

I had to do the family laundry. We had a maytag wringer washer and a double cancrete tub. With 10 in the family there were a lot of white shirts. I used a blueing agent, and spray starch when ironing. That was in the 60's. The wet dog sounds like fun. As the cistern is partially under ground the wall will be damp taking longer to dry. They maid milk paint. The chipmunks seem to enjoy their new pet.

The blue looks great and the plants will be so happy!

It is 33˚C/92˚F here today....tee shirt weather. I think you are correct in your thinking that the pond may have been enclosed in response to the near drowning of their child. And, in the not too distant time of old, gray haired ladies would 'blue' their hair for the same reason.

Love the colour! Well done

I love the blue color. Of corse it helps that it is my favorite color 😉 but anyway, I think it is perfect for the room and what you say about the plants absorbing light from it makes totally sense. About the pig. I think you should consider finding a friend or two to sweet little Piggy. Pigs are herd animals and he definetly misses some friends to play and cuddle with. Pigs are extremely social creatures and they even sleep together in one big "pile" when they live in a herd. So if you really want to make him happy you should consider a couple of more little piggies ❤

I watch both of your channels and I’m also subscribed. It’s fascinating to see what you are doing on both channels. I absolutely LOVE your highland cows!!! They are adorable and my favorite. 🐮 The water leak in your chateau was so unfortunate. I’m glad the plumber was able to find it and stop the leak. Leaks are so frustrating. We’ve had a number of them in our house. Our house has been repiped and our roof is being replaced. We still have 1 leak to figure out. The upstairs shower leaks onto the floor downstairs right in front of the half bathroom. It’s driving me crazy! Hopefully we will figure it out soon. Love your channels! 👍🏻😉🥰💙🐶🍷🙏

Amy, when my husband moves our cattle on the farm he feeds them with a bit of corn from a bag for a few days prior to the move they then relate the sound of the corn in the bag to a nice treat and will follow the sound of the bag being shaken. Might be worth a try xx

Those cows are huge. Their horns are massive also. It's funny how the pig enjoys their company. Everything is looking good.

I remember those they were called Dolly Blues. My mum used them and Dolly Tubs to hold clothes soaking in water. Not forgetting the mangle with bìg wooden rollers.

Pretty

It's progressing well!
