@ComtesseRose thank you so much for your continued support so the hags and tartlets can keep on going. As someone who struggled with my weight and self-esteem I do feel slightly sad when peoples looks and weight are made. Fun of. Weight can be handled with some self-control, but our looks cannot be changed. It’s something we are born with. That being said, I think Nattie Look nice in her dungarees and jumper.

OK, thinking of patron days. I’m not thinking on a scale like Billybud But more in something simple to feed the masses I don’t think the pulled pork was the right way to go. I’m thinking more of an elegant brunch, including some type of champagne punch as they have massive amounts of turrines I’m sure they have punch bowls. Please submit your menus in a timely manner, so Marie has time to plan!! Keep in mind the menu should be something that could be mostly made ahead of time with few to little hot dishes.

Please tell me why these sycophantic idiots travel all the way to the shitoo in the middle of nowhere to spend a weekend celebrating their birthday??? Almost every other weekend a guest is celebrating their birthday. Usually some foolish middle aged woman with no taste and even less style or brains. How stupid do you have to be to put a birthday visit to Fanny’s, and pay to have dinner with Fanny & Snorty, on your bucket list??? I’d rather shoot myself, and it would take more than a bottle of champagne (cheap or expensive) to make me drunk enough to forget the nasty experience!

Thanks @ComtesseRose. It’s great waking up to a shiny new thread.

Nabbed this FB comment before it got deleted. We’re all wandering about that Michelle 😄

Lancelot’s latest IG post made me laugh. Snorts is probably like my Grandson. Smothers himself in Lynx rather than shower. He’s 10 years younger than Snorts Hoping he grows out of that habit 😝

Is it still called Lynx where you are? Mainland Europe it's called AXE. Do be careful what you wish for @CountessPompidoo with your grandson... my son is just ending his teens and whilst the AXE is still used it is no longer used as "shower in a can". He just spends an inordinate amount of time in the shower costing us an absolute fortune in water and the heating thereof!

With the paltry frozen peas and a third of a chicken breast I bet the guests would relish extra vegetables and potatoes on the table, but the budget allows for only 15 peas per person

When she said she can smother herself in it too-proof Fanny loves a French wash she really is a smelly skank all cheap perfume and nylon she must really chick up BO not to mention have appalling breathe she eats hardly any vegetables or fibre all eggs and onions. ewwww

I really don't get the rationing of peas in MarIEs masterpiece menus at liarsworld. A bag of frozen peas from Intermarché is less than €2. I always keep them in the freezer for adding into things like risotto. At this very moment I have two bags in the freezer. One for consummation and the other, which is never to be opened, marked in thick black sharpie "peas for knees" 😉

They're probably plastic, off old gift soap sets...

Perhaps from the set that Permasmile Viv gave each guest at her spa retreat, bought from Action 😂 Thrush probably went round nicking the decorative ribbons and flowers before anyone noticed.

I can remember watching Chateau Strife's ex-wife and her pathetic attempts at gardening, her plantings in pots were absolutely ridiculous. I even sent her a message when she wanted to know about Erigeron and suggested she look up a famous Australian gardener who planted it everywhere, especially to soften path edges and around rocks. She answered me condescendingly that the gardener planned "cottage gardens" and that wasn't her style!!! Edna Walling would be laughing like a drain if she was alive today.

If Edna saw Fanny's Jardin Ingles she would have laughed in her face !
Edna Walling did wonderful gardens and homes . I have visited Bickleigh Vale Village .... I think it was the house called Glen Cairn that was open ..... it was a touch of England in Australia.
I have Erigeron in my garden and I remember that Edna would toss a bag of potatoes in the air and where they landed she would plant birch trees etc. So it has a natural feeling .

There will certainly be no side of salmon. Not even a side of sardine! Coronation chicken is a good go to for a buffet. Lay off the pasta salads this year. And, purleese, no bleeping flowers in the food.
 
Stephanie is playing the thrifty poor little orphan princess to appear” down to earth” and “ relatable” to viewers and to detract attention from her latest $5,000 shopping binge, nonstop traveling, and to prep viewers for her latest cash grab. That is why she pulls out the old Avon bottles and pours cheap perfume in a bottle. She played the same game when she spent three videos poorly repainting a €10 table or embroidering napkins from the charity shop. It is all bullshit.

What happened to the computer programs on accounting that she said she purchased two years ago with her brand new Apple laptop? She was going to keep specific accounts for everything and share that was yours. She has done nothing. There is no lake fund. There was no chapel fund. There has never been a heating fund. ( and neither of the other two co-owners contributed 50% of the heating system costs). They bare minimum is put into the nonprofit association, and all the rest of the money goes into her personal bank accounts in the UK.

She has never once shown a written estimate. She has never once discussed or broken down the costs of a project with the company or professional there’s gonna provide the services. She has miss managed in excess of $1 million in continues to collect money on the basis of the word of a known pathological liar.

Amaury has left the building. He has moved on, and likely will be working on his parents home for the next couple of years. Pottie is neck deep in the grifting. When it was noted that he did not touch the dog at Christmas, suddenly Pottie is on the floor and gushing over Ratso. He suddenly appears at guest dinners. He tap dances around the chapel. He is taking photos nonstop. He is preparing for the next rent a star scam. He is acting in the videos and playing the part of the child like photogragher.He loves the money, the attention, and never wants the grift to end. If the grift fails, the other 2 owners are back to supporting the dump and Stephanie. They will not support Philip. I hope Mummy lives to be 100.

Philip, Stephanie, and Pottie have all become much more active and aggressive in comment forums, planting fake gushing comments, false info, conflicting info, hopeful plans, etc. Stephanie started screaming viewers very early in the process of collecting money for herself under the guise of restoring the dump. If you were being truthful and honest with people, why do you need to continuously create fake accounts under Waze to spread your propaganda and manipulate the narrative? Why do you need to harass viewers, ban viewers, invent conversations with yourself, etc.? She knows what she and the rest of the Dump crew are doing is deceptive and dishonest but doesn’t care as long as she can get people to send her $$$$$$$.

FRK is hiding a lot of anger and resentment. When she explodes, it will not be pretty.

So La Jarvis thinks refilling a perfume bottle is renovating. But she also believes that randomly throwing together snippets of 14 days is editing.

I think that's the video content version of the Lalande cookbook: How To Show Your Volunteers, Guests, and Friends How Very Little You Think of Them.
It's that idea of hers, actually voiced, according to Clara, that eating dinner with her is worth €75, and her top tip of filling an empty Lanvin perfume bottle with supermarche cologne is not the mother of all Potemkin village mirages of bullshit. It does not quite reach the heights of coloring the open wallpaper seams with crayon, but it is of the ilk and getting there.
My narc hated change and couldn't let things go, either. He'd go out and sit in his truck and listen to Rush Limbaugh (a demented right wing radio demagogue) in the driveway. As a cardcarrying lib we thought this was masochistic.
But buying empty perfume bottles is sad and weird. The anorexic dinner plate.

The bedroom view of the courtyard always makes me sad. I recall when Dan was planting he asked Davey if he shouldn't cut the wires & open the burlap and Davey said not they will grow fine as is. Now looking at the sparse growth on the espaliered trees makes me wonder how much fuller the growth might have been. Another Davey decision that went awry, bless his heart.
 
Uuuuggggghhh! Can you fix your hair for your wedding? Geez. They have the most scraggly hair, and those costumes….SMH

In the latest Vlog, What an eye-popping emerald ring! Also, The dinner how dismal? What if you wanted seconds of some thing? Could you say …I want an extra strawberry? It Is a starvation spa meal for sure.

75 euros per meal can not pay for a whole strawberry… 4 blueberries, 3 raspberries and 3/4 of a strawberry for dessert…

those idiot guests deserve to be ripped off.
