You seem like good peeps. If I see ya around one day, beer's on me.
Awesome vid.
Every time you show us the nitty gritty of life as an expat in Portugal – the good times and the hard times. It reminds me of something I read in a Dick Francis story: The protagonist is an artist. At some point in the story someone asks "What does he paint?" and a character answers "Golf pictures" (technically correct), but then someone else says "No. He paints the indomitability of the human spirit."
You personify the indomitability of the human spirit.
I'd say "don't give up" but it's redundant, because you wont.
Olá gostei do canal e subscrevi, parabéns pelo canal e conteúdo, gostava que visse o meu. 🙏☺😉
When you said Ah, I laffed, that spitting sound did not match the amount of air still in the tire🤣, all the while it was a bucket drip, thats why it helps to have all 5 senses, glad to hear Nancy is on the mend, Molly sounds like me, always asking questions 😙😊 ups and downs of farm life eh, I LOVE that saying don't sweat the small stuff, but in reality the small stuff is what can turn ones peaceful start into a shambolic one, but you found the rainbow, happy week to you all on your Quinta🌈
This brings me back some memories . Between 18 and 22 years old ,this was job , fixing flat tires. Using exactly the same machine . The correct way to fix a puncture is with a patch inside the tire , like he did . Opening the hole from the outside and filling it ,it's the wrong way , it's going to break the wire mesh that is in the middle layer of the tire and soon or later the surface is no longer flat , looks like 'egg' shaped , and can blow up or causing damage to the wheel .
Good to see the tyre situation sorted out. Love that little goat Nancy!
Shall we tell Alex that we deflate his tire once i a while just to see him work on the tractor 😇
I thought it might be the valve. Good spot just in time.
Stay well. Greetings from Miami.
Just discovered your program really good brilliant insight of what you do I liked it when you helped on the portugal project 😀 taught jasper a thing or two. Stay safe me old mucker 🍾
Apply some sort or grease to studs it will make your life easier in the future !!!Greetings from Downunder.
Never a dull minute on the farm. Do they use nitrogen to fill tires in Portugal? 🙂👍👍👍👍
I do so love our drives into the city! Virtual Portugal !! I would enjoy a separate video of the drive in real time. : ) Best Wishes!
Thank you so much for showing the goat you named Muffin 🥰
somewhere over the rainbow there are tyres that will stay inflated …. what a good guy the tyre man is , good job guys !
Maan… i would really like to link you up with Mandy in Portugal…you know that expression misery loves company? Different problems same attitude!…I am seriously considering the notion that negativity attracts negativity…or positive people get dragged down? I'd love to know…because there is a common thread going on publicly here (thank you 2022 social media) …and we cannot make anything better until we ask the hard questions?
Hazel ☘️ …
Very worrying the animal feed and hay situation !
One thing for sure you have learned in your years on the farm is adaptability … at a moments notice you have to sit down and prioritise your priorities , very stressful indeed … you just motor on , what else can you do ?
☘️🙏😘
Very knowledgeable on almost everything except you don’t know much about bullshit, I suppose that’s useful…🤣🤣🤣
Good to have a good tyre shop you can rely on nothing worse than a flat tyre,goats goats everywhere they are looking great the goat that was sick looks better.
Prepare for food shortages, time for Prepping
Great Video thanks for sharing. Love your beautiful farm 🚜
Everything ( prices ) are going up… last time I bought 3 litres of Fula cooking oil ( sunflower oil) 2 months ago the price was 5.5 euros today in the supermarket it costs 11 euros….
Yup, job done. A better day tomorrow 👍. Alex, you have a great daughter. She is like your "right hand man". Molly is awesome 👌👏.
Inflation is all over the world, Alex.
🙆🏻♀️Hurrah, you got your tires fixed! The tire repair fellow was very amiable and also quite thorough, yeah? Enjoyed your exchanges with one another. I'd certainly use Pneus Alcains if i ever get to visit out your way and have tire needs👍🏼.
Thanks for another cool road trip, i love these! This one didn't seem to be as long a trip as when you went to Jasper's place the last video. Did this route take you past any youtooby friends?
Haha, you know you're of a place when in you're in an entirely different town and a neighbor rolls past to tease you 😄.
What a vivid 🌈 ! Aww, Nancy🐐 just likes your flavor, papa Alex 💕. That feed looks very nuticious & delicious.
🌟👍🍀💐
Nancy loves you Alex x
I am sure I will make use of that tyre shop in the future, thanks for posting the business card in the video. First time I,ve commented on one of your videos I am slowly making my way through the back catalogue. I loved the lister start up and watching Molly leg it, I did the same when I was young and dad started up a similar stationery engine I legged it too. Best Wishes to you all. Stay safe. AL
Impressive Portuguese n display by both of you – from someone who was shit scared and as you know rubbish with gears I love tractoring now – just remember to check my tires now
