SJ has already chosen her dress for next NYE. Smart, classy, international and Berrichon/Anglo/Saxon elegance.
100 % acrylic, goes in the washing machine, gets dry in 15 minutes, no tumble dryer.
Don't forget to go to Emmaüs before wearing it as the thong is not provided with the dress.
Peeeeeeerfect

I’ll be damned.. that food actually looks appetizing! 😆

Now I just need to know how much of it was her, and how much was the supervision of the instructor! B&B guest may finally eat some appealing meals…
 
Fingers crossed they take notice.

She's beginning to remind me of the Jennifer Coolidge character in The White Lotus, pathetic and needy.

Congratulations, @Cleo's Asp, on your VIPhood.

The fish shack is located, as we all know, in a yacht kitchen these days, with the yacht chef putting in 18 hour days when she's not doing stevedore work humping half a ton of produce from the dock to the walk-in on Massa's yacht. Its entrance is located to the left of the VIP lounge, bien sur, all are welcome.
On its way to French Polynesia and Rapa Iti, the yacht made a brief stop at Kiribati, the first bit of earth the sun touched when it rose on millenium day. The big news from Kiribati is that they have green vegetables and other kinds too. Pumpkins grow well on atolls and they have kabocha squashes. Real Indian Ocean and South China Sea sailing cultures begin at that latitude to influence the food, and the Filipinos may be winning.
Also they eat sand worms, but we don't have to.
Here's a little fish shack repast to celebrate.

I'd doubt that Fanny will splurge on a baguette tray or various Callebaut chocolates.
Everything is prepared for Marie, I wonder if they have a budgetting class or better yet an exam, where they have to reproduce the dishes they've learnt.

It doesn't surprise me that one of Fanny's dining chairs broke. They're old, second-hand, frequently used and poorly maintained. It probably had a split or hairline break that Fanny couldn't bother to fix. Heck, Snorty hasn't reupholstered the chair he brought back from the UK a year ago. I think it's been at least 3 years since anyone at the shitoo fixed a piece of furniture.
Now come on @Lady Avonlea it’s not his fault that nobody has bought any more staples in the last 2 years. His staple gun has been forgotten about and left to rot in Narnia with all the other crap. They are all far too busy spending big big big to be bothered with such mundane purchases.
 
Congratulations to our newest VIP @Cleo's Asp and thank you for naming the thread. I took some creative liberties.

I don't always check my YT notifications, but found this when I did today: 😮

I suspect it is The Baconator. Don't worry- I am not giving out any codes, as we've had our fair share of flying monkeys. Has anyone else been approached? Thoughts? :unsure:

I took a look at that Stephanie apologist video that was posted on here earlier. The name of the poster I couldn’t remember who often interacts with Jimmy Connolly is Zed Blackworth. He’s definitely fallen off the Fanny wagon! He hasn’t forgotten about Mmahkotso either.

First Snorty slowly removed all SJ’s small trinkets in the home memories of family, places she’s been even pictures of herself from fans. Then he replaced larger items to add his junk that has no value or relational story.( my grandfather’s favorite was a lie!) He then went to furniture, no more x-lovers items like Ollie’s paintings, Potty’s photography even Christmas baubles from her life. All replaced a lifetime of travel & family & friends to just store bought crap with no personality. Now he is removing her father’s painting from pride of place for a broken they don’t even know what carving???
Example: He removed her items from mantle & replaced with their books. Then replaced their books with his mirror. Like cooking a frog in a pot, SJ has no idea she is being so manipulated. All that is left is his crap that is hollow & vain.

Sad! Snorty ruins everything.

My, My doesn't it just seem like the chickens are coming home to roost...

As always thank you to you tartlets who; upload the Patreon vlog, sort the wiki and archive stuff. 💗
Remeber lurkers, we do have a wiki - it's the pink button.
Happy Tattling.
That yellow sweater Fanny's wearing to strip the mirror of its cling film, is, as has been remarked here previously, the single ugliest garment in the whole shitoo. I don't think I've ever seen a more hideous piece of clothing.

Also, she learnt to spell voilà AND use it in the correct context. No mean feat that!
 
Well, if we all meet up in Kiribati (we tend to use Kiribas in Australia) I will gift you all 2.5 metres of Indonesian Batik/ikat fabric to make your own wrap around skirt or to make into a halter neck sarong as I do. I will even buy you all a nasty, brown handbag which has been stamped with a logo of a company for their free advertising. Authentic from Bali, of course.
Edit:
We will NOT be travelling onto Nauru as their government has just announced they will not recogonise Taiwan as a separate country of China. Tense times in the China Sea area and particularly in my neck of the woods in Australia.
I first discovered Oz academics in the forefront of the study of the genocide in Cambodia (and Australia), an impressive lot, and not your only great Anglophone scholars of Asia/eyes on China. I am very worried about Chinese incursion into the Commonwealth, which they've targeted in Africa and began nibbling off pieces of in the Solomon Islands. Counting on Tattle and the Daily Mail to keep me posted. o_O 🥴
 
Does she get extra credit for posting every little thing she does in this course? I mean, really, Marie...just go live your life! Learn and have fun. All the "amazing" and "viola" comments are annoying, to me anyway. The instructors are "amazing", their demos are "amazing".....her own efforts are "amazing". If you have to repeat this mantra over and over, how "amazing" is it, really? Who are you trying to convince?

And another thing, I guess it's great to know how to make a baguette, but YOU LIVE IN FRANCE! Why make them? It's like her making hot dog buns or that weird attempt at naan......NOT "amazing"!
Don't forget cute... 🤬
 
You'd think, (surely) after 3 years together she'd have some influence over his wardrobe.. I mean, he literally looks stupid, who packs shorts like that for a vacation? What the freak are on his feet? Plimsoles? All that money she spent on his 'Scottish wardrobe' and he can't wear any of it..

Who in their right mind would look at Snorty and proudly & publicly declare, "yep, that's my man"!
