The Chateau Diaries #287 Fanny either has a new found interest in rebar & cement, or she's in heat!

I was wondering if the Daily Mail takes note of comments that receive lots of upvotes.
If this was to happen to girly's comment this may create some interest at the DM.
They may follow up with some 'investigative journalism'.

The ground definitely caved... View attachment 2740920 q

I find it curious that after all of these weeks/months of shielding this cordoned off area from viewers, she's chosen today to put it out there within the first minute of her vlog. Awfully bold of her to film this shot and not edit it out before posting the video, wouldn't you say? Wonder what's made her so cocky, after all these months of shielding it from vlog watchers? Could it be that she feels the death of a worker (which she may or may not be partly responsible for) isn't as bad as getting caught and convicted of stealing from rural churches in France?

I reckon Billy didn't like Sean's work - it wasn't high enough standard for him. Sean is thorough but not pretty in his work - his place looks a tad hoarder like.

We think the same. Watching Sean and Simon there is no comparison.
And his property is a mess. Recently his daughter's boyfriend Jack helped him clear that carport area . . . again.
Looking at the crap he removed, I thought who needs three ironing boards.

Oooooooohhhh grrrrrl.
I'm all about femme performance. Ru Paul, Toddlers and Tiaras, Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, Princess Diana, The Queen, I'm agog at the way people think femme is performed and enact it.
And now you've made me understand that Stephanie Jarvis is in the lineup. Emphasis on the performance of a perceived personna that does not come naturally to the performer. Thanks!

Performance ...... describes her life and personality perfectly.
I come from humble stock, nothing fancy and no money to speak of but ya know what, I am confident in my own skin. I don't need to try to prove my worth or pretend to be something I'm not. I can hold my own with any person in any setting. Makes me wonder what sort of crap happened to her as a child to make her so ill at ease with herself.

Another chateau looking for slaves.

They're not the only ones. Sean let slip a while ago they were getting volunteers to help.
They already had a caravan on site which their daughter was supposed to fix up but then I noticed they now have another caravan down the far end of the driveway. Me thinks they will be living quarters for the slaves.

"@billybudd Once again toggling between granny porn and granny tat and infant girl outfits."
My English grandmother used to send out coats like these and similar to the one she wore, to be worn to Sunday School. They were always 2 sizes too big and I had to wear them for at least 3 years. One time it was tartan with a beret to match!
There is no way, as a grown woman, I would wear that style again. It is infantile. When I watch Milan Style on YouTube non of those classy woman, young or old, wear that style. I do note though, that they wear colours, not just a usual black coat, so for me the colour of her coat in Venice is nice.
As someone just said, she needs help and counselling now.

 

[Gertrude Maud]

There have been active dump accounts posting today? I guess we can't have a heads up. I really do wonder who they are.

Me too!

As a Billy fan, I will say I am shocked and disappointed.
I was willing to give him a pass on going AWOL.
We had a cleaning lady who asked my husband's help when her young son went AWOL from the army because of bastardisation.
But this . . . this is another level . . . call it what you want . . . at the end of the day it's theft.
With convictions against their names they will want to stay very clear of the law.
As for Gwen . . . bringing her family name into disrepute.
If Billy puts a foot wrong he'll be a goner.
I will be watching his next vlog with interest.

My guess is that Billy will stay mum…keep as far away from the topic of his conviction as possible. Exactly the way he handled the military desertion story. There’s really nothing he can say that will make everyone happy…he won’t be sorry enough for some, or won’t say the right thing for others. I think Billy knows he has fans who will support him no matter what, and also has his detractors that won’t be satisfied no matter what he does. So…his best bet is to just let the heat die down and let it all blow over. It would be nice to hear his side of the story, but I doubt it will ever happen,

Or if not that, if she enjoyed the first Patreon Open Day or not? Was the food up to her standards? Did she meet up with Clara etc etc
Poor thing is probably cursing for using the wrong account to 'like' with.

Probably the right one to distract us and steer us to talk about “her” instead of what’s happening the news with Billy & Gwen? Perfect timing…

 

[Gertrude Maud]

have you got any of her cook books?

I have her 'Table In Venice'. ❤

We are very behind with overseas magazines.
I am waiting for, it's either Period Living or English Home . . . in which she is featured.

No, I haven't. I love her style. She comes across as humble and of course her Aussie connection.

If you like her yellow kitchen, google Jersey Ice cream Co . . . a couple from America . . . they did the fit out.

I don't think FRK looked that thrilled to be back at the Dump in today’s video.

No, she wants to be on a yacht gettin drunk and screwing the cute yacht dudes in between charters. I hope she just used Fanny to get her certificate and is going to just leave Fanny high and dry.

I was looking at the Workaway website, as I was sure that Vivienne and Simon of Chateau Love had had Workaway volunteers before. I was right, they have....they only have Workaway volunteers who are a couple. As I was reading some of the feedback from the Workaway volunteers (all very complimentary of Simon & Vivienne) I was SHOCKED to see at least two couples who spent over a year with them! One of them spent a year there, then 6 months later returned for another 18 months!

I call this program Adopt-a-Couple, not Workaway!!!

I wouldn't be thrilled either wearing that coat! What is that get-up FRK is wearing?
Also, Snorty didn't go to pick up FRK at Limoges. Rather the two of them went grocery shopping and had the white cotton bag with groceries she placed on the floor.

 

[Gertrude Maud]

The French tuck is not doing Stephanie any favours.
She certainly has a pot stomach in profile.

Watching CD today I felt like I got time sickness (is that a thing?)

Tante serving a big lunch at 4:00 pm, but they are also removing the Christmas decorations at 4:00 p.m.
Definitely two separate days, but likely even more.

During Tante's big lunch you can see Snorty & FRK's grocery shopping on the table (toilet paper & whatever food container FRK carried in the kitchen). FRK may not be happy to be back at the shitoo, but she looked particularly happy to be sitting beside Snorty.
Amusing to see Fanny send Snorty up to the attic with the Christmas decorations while see waddles out to the chapel for her hourly worker harassment session.

Oncle trying to have a dry February yet Snorty pulls out a special bottle of port on a regular weeknight dinner to entice him to take a tipple. Snorty doesn't even need an excuse for a drink. Fanny & Snorty both need intense, inhouse treatment for their drinking and shopping addictions.

Snorty is a drunk.

I was wondering why Fanny went to Venice early this year (pre Carnivale), and I’m wondering if it’s because of Amuary. I suspect Amuary may have put his foot down and told Fanny when he wanted vacation and he wasn’t going to wait around while she and Snorty flitted off to the U.K., Vienna, Venice and S.A. There’s no one else to watch the shitoo and Ratso so Amuary has some leverage to tell Fanny what his schedule will be, so I just hope he’s using it. Amuary did go to Bali, his parents for Xmas and now off again somewhere, so it seems (with Natti’s support) he’s standing up for himself a little more (at least I hope so).

If the army would knock on my door again, I’d run to. Over to …… Canada, or whatever non EU country would take me in.

In our country, men must either choose a limited time in military, or do a social year in a socially related facility like Red Cross, Ambulance, Hospital or…. RETIREMENT HOME, I’ve seen things… I smelled those things… changed bedsheets… naked bodies..

This would be just perfect for Snorty. What I wouldn't give to see him with a short back and sides, properly shaved and made to cut his lady nails. Can you just see him mincing across a parade ground before hours of square bashing and physical exercise. No chance of him wearing his broaches or that beanie.

Did your grandfather not tell to to get your elbows off the table while you eat?
