Window looks great. Sunday lunch (or Saturday if I am desperate): Greek chicken for one - a thigh with skin on (or Maryland,) embedded in a nest of 1 cut potato,similar amount of pumpkin; add onion and lemon quarters, douse with olive oil, lemon juice (half to full lemon), splash of stock or water, (home grown ) thyme and 2 whole cloves peeled garlic, bake for about 35 minutes at 220C- ish, remove chicken and place under foil, cook off the potatoes and pumpkin at higher heat (230-240C) untilgolden and cooked. One baking dish, sorted.
Get one of those stainless steel tower filters made by Berkefeld. Far better I've used one for the past 3 years and the filters last just as long.
hi sean. curious as to why you dont use the train for treochy?
I’m in Blaencwm so easier for bus.
Love the green! Will you paint the door to match?
Yes.
Hello Sean ,lovely stroll around your town, and country roads. Paint job windows all makes it more real the progress is moving along nicely.feel good factor for you . I think shops closing for half day is a good idea. Where I grew up and worked in retail, we closed half day on Wednesday always closed Sunday.one or two shops in the area still close half day Wednesday. Most stores now only employ part time workers , when you work full time in a shop the half day and Sunday closing gave staff a welcome break. I hear people complaining about shops not being open 24 hours. 😩 .....Lovely Roses at your homestead, thanks again for your videos. 👍🙏
Your flowers look amazing ❤ and your cat. You can make crustless quiche with eggs. Using chopped spinach, sliced red pepper, cooled fried onions or mushrooms, grated cheese, leeks, peas, whatever you like that is not watery. Need 5 or 6 eggs, well beaten, a tub (250g), cottage cheese, a cup and a half of veggies, and herbs and spices like oregano, basil, onion powder, paprika, lemon pepper, black pepper. Pour into a greased pie dish or casserole dish. Top with grated cheese and bake at 325-350 for 45 min or until a knife comes out clean. Serve as wedges with salad.or chips.
Hi Sean. Have a cup of tea and chill. There’s always tomorrow. Take care
LOOKS REALLY NICE!
Love the video 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yes Sean, this year seems to have flown by!! Seems like it was Christmas just last week & already we are on the last part of 2024!! You live such an interesting life...I've never watched anyone in Wales before, so this is a learned experience for me, while I enjoy watching your day to day life. Sean, I used a water filter that actually attaches to my spigot, in my kitchen...i just turn it on, when ever I am using the water. Oh, I so love the color you chose for your window trim!! Thank you so much for sharing, my new friend. Blessings to you too!♥
Sean, the painted shed looks fabulous!! Thanks for sharing your wonderful videos. My husband and I visited London last spring and he surprised me with a day in Wales toward the end of our trip, which was lovely. Cheers from New York😊
Nice one Sean 🍇🍒🍓🍑🫐
Love the color. Very cheerful.
You need to get a multi stage filter
Calendar would be great x
Such a beautiful green for the windows! 🎉Reflects the stunning green of the Welsh landscape! ❤
Green looks good !
when the second coat of stain's on it'll look great with that green I think, a lot better than dull grey
tks for vid makes me feel good watching you
The bright paint on the windows helps birds to see that this is part of a structure so they don't fly into the glass. Good color!
Sean,you can get or buy an in-line water filter for the faucet tape,which just fixes to the pipe.👍👍
Please!Spare us!😢 3:06
The green is just right. Love it!
because it is garden shades they always dry darker I hope you mixed the tin before you opened it lol
Really lovely Sean,thank you 🎶✨️
We bought a Life Straw pitcher. The bigger size. It gets everything out of your water. Fresh tasting always.
Perfect color it looks beautiful against the black grained wood.😊
What a sweet video ❤
I LOVE that green 💚
Sean, try this water filter…. “British Berkefeld 8.5L SS Gravity Filter & Ultra Fluoride”. Can buy from The Bug out in Builth 👍🏻
Shed is looking great Sean. The green makes it all pop. Like you we do love a Sunday lunch. Roasted potatoes roast meat of sorts lots of veg cauliflower cheese Yorkshire puds and lashings of gravy. See you in the next one 😊❤
I invested in a Berkey water filter that removes chlorine and fluoride as well as bacteria and viruses ! I feel better using our tap water for us and the grand babies now. It was an expensive purchase but considering the state of our water in the UK I’m glad I got it. Love the green on the shed Sean. You look so happy pottering about in beautiful Wales. We’ve just built and filled our first raised bed….we moved house a month ago, it’s sown with dwarf beans and salad crops. Take care Sean xx
We use an Aqua Rain water filter for the same reason here in the USA.
Hello Sean. I did enjoy watching the paint dry, thank you! I am older than dirt, and when I was a little girl we had a rag and bone man with a horse and cart. He had a chant that nobody understood, but I think that was a normal thing. This was not far from where you used to live in Crystal Palace. I think he also used to do knife grinding, and I remember being scared of the loud sound of the grindstone, which I think was worked with a treadle. Later when I went to uni in Bristol, there was an elderly gent with a bicycle that was almost entirely obscured by the gigantic strings of onions that he offered for sale. He appeared on the streets of Clifton in the Autumn, and stayed until all his onions were sold. I think he was French. Well he had a beret, and said he was French! Now in Gloucestershire, we have a scrap metal man who drives about in a van (no horse) but who still keeps up the proud tradition of incomprehensible yelling so that we know he's coming!
I like the green... very cheerful!
I have one of the stainless steel gravity filters and I love it, works quite well. I see another commenter mentioned this. Your shed looks fab! The window colour and shed colour are perfect, and aren't the new windows a treat. Thanks again for sharing your views! lol best wishes from the Pacific Northwest. One day I shall send you a magnet.
Wow that colour looks fabulous sterling job Sean .
You’re funny sticking your tongue out! 😂 So many nice independent shops to enjoy. I was wondering if you’re still planning on doing the Q&A video with all the questions subscribers sent in.
Yes, I talk about that in the next video.
Love the Shed colours together Sean. 🖤💚❤️
Hi Sean, I love Treorchy high street you have still got all the smaller individual shops there, and big supermarkets haven't taken over, which is what's happened where I live, and we don't have much choice as smaller shops can't compete with supermarkets, there seems to be more of a community spirit there, I like the bright green on the shed windows, it's all coming together nicely Sean take care xx
Hi Sean, love the green paint on the window frame. The shed is looking so cosy. You have been working so hard. Taake care Gale x
Beautiful, you picked one of my favorite colors
WITH REFERENCE TO WATER FILTER. You need an RO(reverse osmosis)filters. I've researched loads ,some costing hundreds of pounds . I've found ZERO WATER jug /large jug with tap from £69 upwards. It has a ppm ( parts per million ) tester with it. Cartridges £29 for 2. It's out doing expensive machines. 5 stage filtration. You do have to add electrolytes after. This adds some good minerals that the body needs. Check it out.
Do you have a link?
windows looks great sean
Lovely colour, the door would look nice in the green too, just a thought. Shed colour looks fabulous. Love your shopping expeditions. 🐞
Hi Sean. Glad you took the complainers down! Can you help me with the suppliers of your perspex (spelling) for the shed? I want to help my son & daughter in law refurbish their inherited greenhouse. Now then, that casserole/dutch oven you bought was my first pot as a newly married. Ask you butcher for 2 neck of lamb & chop up veggies. Bung in the oven with a layer of sliced potatoes on the top (seasoning etc…..) A Lancashire hotpot. So yum.

The color is fab.
Lovely pop of colour on your shed Sean. Looks great and with the windows done you can get the shed cosy now and spend time there. Dare to be different is my motto! Glad you didn't choose the sage green. It is a beautiful colour and I have it in my kitchen but has become the new grey, as in overused and everywhere. I was drawn to the cornflower blue as you were hovering over the paint. I have it in my garden with bright pops of pinks and grey . Santorini style )
Yup berry or pansy...like your t- shirt colour you are wearing just now...going so well with that black....
Purple pansy..😅or berry..it's a great warm colour...wow. It's like in Belgium..shops close fir Sunday. Here in sa. All is open till 14.00 and spar till 17.00 even Sundays 😂😂..
