NEW VIDEOS EVERY SUNDAY (and usually midweek too👍)
It's all about DIY and starting our dream self build barn conversion. Building, wood work, gardening.... sheep, pigs, chickens... you name it, if it can be done we will give it a go!
We recently bought an old farm in Gloucestershire and will be spending our days, (and nights) making it somewhere to call home, both for us and our animals. Check out DIY Farm channel.
We are not professionals in any way, just keen to do as much of the work ourselves and as well as learning as we go, share our journey with you all through UA-cam.
We hope that you enjoy following us through the DIY and farming challenges!

Came out beautiful
Congratulations to all of you.
That whole "we're not going to be a typical Grand Designs couple" section was very well put together made me laugh, and great way to share the news! Congratulations to you both, you sure like to be busy and have lots going on don't you. An already thoroughly enjoyable and exciting series just got a lot more so!
Great news , congrats to you both .
Apologies if this is a silly question... But why didn't you apply the DPC membrane to the board that was screwed into the wall (the one from which the joists hang)..?? Isn't that subject to rotting the same as the ones placed on the floor?
Congratulations to u all.good to see u jo
You dont want to go on Grand Designs. Youll over spend by three times your original budget.
Congratulations!
Have you ordered your windows…….. always have to wait for your windows on GD 😂. Congratulations 🥂 to the whole growing family
Best reveal Ever!
On a small holding if you purchase one piece of kit it has to be a site dump truck. We bought our small holding 20 years ago and within the first couple of months we purchased an old 2T Wingut for GBP 500 and used it for 15 years. Sold it for GBP 500 and it never let us down. Replace it with a Barford SX3000. It has lights, is our wheelbarrow for emptying stables and taking the old bedding to the local farmers muck heap. It pulls the Ifor Williams trailer when bring in the hay from the field and the IBC water butts in and out of the field all year round for the rescue Alpacas, Horses, Goats etc. Goes everywhere, never gets stuck (I try very hard), is road registered and is better than a tractor. It gets into spaces a tractor and trailer can't. PS we bought a 21T Liebherr digger back in 2020 for no money. 9 liter six cylinder Air cooled diesel. It does not leave our land and does all the heavy lifting and digging we need as and when asked. People thing we are nuts but have had the last laugh on many occasion. Yes it is too big but who cares. The Barford SX3000 is invaluable.
Congratulations, fantastic news. You will need to build a new house for all the bedrooms!
Congratulations guys. Jo take a step back from the work as much as you can. Tim get your skates on and get this build finished 😂❤
The best news! A mini Jo or a mini Tim? Can't wait find out 🎉🎉 Also, I don't recall if Grand Designs have ever featured a couple who built a house to live in before building THE house. You're too good for them anyway 😂 (Back away Kevin they're ours...) We love you guys 🥰.
Congratulations 🎉
Congratulations! Another DIY baby in the making 😂 great video once again.
What wood do u use for the rails at back of the gate. Is it 2 by 4. I got the picket slata jus need to get the wood for the frame
Congratulations to the whole family. Don't go filling up all those bedrooms !!! Took you long enough to get this one granted!!😂😂😂
It completely went over my head. Congratulations 🥳 ❤
Congrats to you both!
George Clark it is then?
Congratulations to you all.
Congratulations, guys. I never understand how the couples find time 😂
Shame about Grand Designs as Kevin McCloud only lives about 10 miles from you!! Congrats to you both!!
Congratulations.
Congrats all round! Loved the chicken cameo 🐓
You cats are crazy, congrats guys 🎉
Ahhh, you guys!!! Congratulations 🎉
2 much time on your hands guys😂 no congratulations. And keep up the good work .
Congratulations guys, loving this build so far keep up the good work, and we need more content! Don’t cut so much out the videos id love to see all the ins and outs and maybe more Timelapse if it’s not too much extra work??? Keep up the good work
Noted!
Congrats, but please DO NOT progress from the bath to the pig trough! 😅
Hey...congratulations guys. Really enjoying the build so far and the behind the scenes updates every now and then are great. 🎉🎊
Congratulations!!! 🎉
It’s happening. Congratulations. Great job guys. 👍
Congratulations to you both, the build is coming on very nicely, keep up the good work 👏 😊
So now you have to change the dead line and get it done before the new one arrives 😂 congratulations
Why does the pig sound like a top fuel dragster LOL
Congratulations :D
It’s far too good for Grand Designs. They would be insulting you by editing it down to 45 minutes and putting restraints upon your build.. This is the best build I’ve ever seen.
Congratulations. My wife is 39 weeks, so it was no surprise to us on the reveal. You are such a great couple. Thanks for the ongoing stories and updates. Take care both of you.
Thank you so much!
Congrats both, mad!!🙈🥱
Congratulations! It’s a good job you seem to have endless energy!
🫡👊
Congratulations to you both…question is…will it be a boy this time?…another helper too..🥰🇦🇺
So pleased you are not going with Grand Designs - excellent decision. DO it Yourself in your own way!
Nut cases or legends I'm not sure 🤔 Congratulations guys 👍
Congratulations! We've just had our first, feel like you're very brave with number 4 on the way😂
And there was me thinking all the mid-build babies were down to the grand designs presenter 😂
Congratulations, and so exciting on all fronts!
Congrats to you both! and goodluck with the build.
