Boat Saving Drama & Renovating The Kitchen In Our 200 Year Old Cottage On The Isle of Skye - Ep76
44,169
Published 2024-06-30
In this episode, the Skye Lifers are grounded by bad weather - meaning they can't take their boat Betty out on the water. However, they do need to make an essential change to the mooring - which is at risk of breaking!
Will we manage to do it between sideways rain and hailstorms or will it be too late?!
Plus, we decide to make a big change in our cottage kitchen, which there's no going back on and we watch as our newest neighbour takes their first steps in the wild world of the Isle of Skye!
Thanks for watching & see you in the next video!
Sarah, Willie, Jack & Nori xx

Don’t move the fridge! Walking around the counter EVERY time you need something is going to frustrate you. Remember the triangle, sink, stove and fridge. change the door on your fridge. it’s easy. They are all capable of opening either way.
-
No do not move the fridge! No way you want to walk around that counter area every time you need something out of the fridge??? Especially while cooking. 🤦🏼♀️
-
Leave the fridge, move the washing machine in the place you wanted to hide with curtains. Move the countertop under the window and make it a fold up for easy access, it will make the fridge more integrated into the kitchen and make the kitchen feel bigger . You can still have the shelves over the washing machine and the bins underneath the countertop.
-
Small counter was a great idea, but don't move the fridge. Build shelves up further in the corner. Thanks for sharing the calf standing for the first time. Bloopers getting slim, but Nori is always helpful there. :)
-
My vote is to leave fridge where is it. Easier to get at. That's for the video!
-
Aww 🥰 Seeing the birds feed from the bird feeders is just lovely.
-
Hi, leave the fridge where it is, as you need it most of the time x
-
leave the fridge as it'll be a pain walking round to it all the time. So add more shelves
-
Don't move the fridge. Do put a curtain across the shelves. Keep making these beautiful videos. Thank you ❤
-
Definitely keep the fridge where it is currently. Not only would you be taking extra steps to get around the island every time you go for something while cooking, you’ll also be inviting a spaniel blockade trapping you in the corner.
-
I would personally add more shelving in and keep the fridge where it is, could also look at getting a left sided hinged fridge? Great video as always guys!
-
If you have a part of your kitchen that's tucked away, that's where you keep stuff you don't need to access very often. And switch the fridge door round. I'm sure Richard would be able go do that.
-
Don’t move the fridge!!! I’d add more shelves in the corner for more storage. In the US you can switch the fridge hinges so it’s either a righty or a lefty swing 👍👍👍
-
My vote is leave fridge and add more shelves. Update looks good and great job on counter Willie and Sarah has some mad organizational skills. Sweet baby calf and first time standing was amazing. Adorable birds. Jack and Nori are a blast to watch. Hopefully better weather soon for some more boating adventures. See next week
-
No leave the fridge there!! Build up more cupboards in the other corner!! ❤
-
Love watching the birds feeding their babies from your bird feeders!!❤
-
Leaving the fridge and building shelves in that corner with cupboard fronts will finish the space and likely more user friendly 😊 just a thought
-
The fridge is probably the most constantly accessed thing in the kitchen so leave it where it can be easily reached instead of adding steps to the journey around the worktop. Instead I would build more shelves on top of the existing ones so that you have floor to ceiling shelving. You could use large wicker baskets on the upper shelves so that it looks tidy.

Watching the daddy Chaffinch feed his babies was magical.❤
