The Chateau Diaries #318 Two buck chuck and pork belly under a dingy 80-year-old tent. Sounds elegant.

Well that's Aumary occupied for the next six months then in the ex pepto bismol room. Snorty helped him carry the crap panels out of the barn.....yeah pull the other one.

Maman and Papa's wedding photo, you would have thought she'd have had that out in a frame (he does look like Gerry from the side).

Chapel, no comment, lost interest.

Snorts makes lasagne, really?? :sick::sick:

Et viola! that's the clearing out of the attic abandoned until further notice (she's lost interest), man the pumps chaps, she's taken to her bed ill!

FIN

In the Catholic Church are wedding bans posted?
How long are the bans posted for?
Does this wedding look to be in a church or registry?
 
Almost 20 years later, Sam could write the same column, especially his description, "there is, I take comfort, what estate agents tend to call a wonderful opportunity for modernization. There's no heating and some rooms don't have electric light"

Sam may have found the shitoo a charming, low-brow weekend in his 20 something, post-uni days, but given his professional credentials & family background, I don't think Sam would be keen on staying this coming weekend even if he was given one of the vacant rooms for free. Althought maybe he could bring his Aunt Prue Leith along. I'd love to hear Auntie Prue's feedback on FRK's cooking, Snorty's tablescaping and Fanny's tacky hosting. Auntie Prue wouldn't be impressed with the decanted cheap wine, edible flowers, minuscule portions, crappy puddings and blueberries sliced in half.

Well done, you did some serious sleuthing there! Interesting that he calls Nic "Short Grumpy"! I couldn't easily read it all but he doesn't seem to have mentioned Fanny at all!

Has the fifty year old little orphan princess had a nose job? Asking for a friend!

Anna Creek Station in South Australia is 23.677 km2 <5,851,000 acres>. Used to run sheep but due to dingos, switched to cattle.

I had forgotten how bad Dan's teefs were!!
In the photos where she "lived in a cupboard", her face looked completely different, it was much rounder. I think she must have had some reconstruction work done! Surely, however, she wouldn't have chosen the nose she now has. I think the nose is the original one, it's too much like her brother's.

. We have better firewood than that so called rotting unfit for purpose panelling.
Trixie has his matchy matchy apron on… Lasagne in a wok. Paahhhfect.

Why don't they fix the gaping hole in the exterior wall that must be letting water into that bedroom before bleeping around with that crusty old paneling that doesn't belong in a tiny bedroom! So Lalande
Exactly. Not only that look at the starte of the rotting window frames and general maintenance like the gutters.
Fanny doesn’t know how to look after anything.
When Sebastian pulled out turf from the gutter someone in the comments asked who ensures the general maintenance of the chateau. Answer. No one.

Was that a carrot lasagne? I didn't know that Fanny and Snorts were vegetarian.

There's an IG account called end of the row. They're logging the reno of their house. I think they've been in 3 years. One of the bedrooms has had a leak the entire time. They have had various experts in to try to sort the problem. Each time the expert told them it was fixed, next rainstorm it leaked. In the 3 years they have not decorated the room feeling they really need to get it sorted once and for all rather than doing a half fix. Finally it is fixed and my are they steaming on with the reno. The couple both have jobs, 2 young children. A normal life. No income from youtube or any other such thing. Kudos to them.

Fanny, with all that money coming in cannot spend it where it needs to be spent. Instead spending it on herself in travel, hotels, designer clothes, unnecessary purchases of all types. She is an absolute disgrace. An embarrassment. I depise her.
 
Hilarious, Stephanie’s fake account Caroline Gooder is now posting in the live chat for yesterday’s video. Who is convinced now that Caroline is from North Carolina…….. idiots.

caroline gooderHi for NC
caroline gooderThe team for the Grand Salon is booked for November said Stephanie.

Yesterday’s video as well as Thursday’s video was totally scripted. Stephanie hauled all the photos to the attic and pretended to find them, as well as the newspaper clipping from 2005/ 2006.( The friend was made redundant by the telegraph in 2008 so the article was published between November, 2005 and 2008 at the latest.) Love how Stephanie failed to read the portion of the article talking about new heating in the dump and no electricity/lighting in mini rooms at the dump.What happened to the statues and urns around the lake that were detailed in the article. The author visited before the pond was drained by short Nic, Potts, and Fanny.

Why does she have the hands of 100 year old woman? Creepy, Snorty has the hands of a child/ man who has never worked a day in his life.

Amaury hates dealing with the gruesome twosome. You can read his discomfort whenever he has to interact with them.
Stephanie claim before the bed-and-breakfast season started they were booked up for the entire season. Recall that Clara posted that Stephanie would always say that the bed-and-breakfast was booked up for the entire season so they would look like they were in high demand. That my account for some of their “ cancellations” and vacancies.” Hanni is not staying at the dump for free. She must be paying to stay at the dump for a couple of weeks.

Looks like Marie suffers from the samee type of wardrobe malfunctions as Stephanie, wearing sheer dresses that are transparent in sunlight.
The English garden looks like tit. Stephanie still isn’t safeguarding Ratso from that pesky fox that attacks animals during daylight.
Hanni’s reddish glasses make her look at bit like Where’s Waldo. Not very flattering. Noticed how she entered the kitchen leaping around. Weird.

I have literally never understood a single word that mumbling Hanni has ever said and there's nothing wrong with my hearing 👂

Regarding the chapel, how are you going to maintain thermal inertia? To avoid detachment of this beautiful restoration.

My eyebrows went up at the Sam Leith article; the first words. In the USA those two words together are a rather derogatory insult. You would never see that in print here


La Reyne Epee account
1721476837323.png

I looked at the past live chats for the past year on the Lalacelle and the Malham channels. This account only participated in live chats and did not place any comments in the comment sections below the videos. In reading some of the comments in the live chats over the past year, the person behind his account worked in IT in England but has not worked in IT for the past year, and was either underemployed or unemployed. The person is not a professional contractor. They stated in the live chats that the accounts it followed were Jenni Malham, Chateau Diaries, Lalacelle and lately Dan’s channel.

The account posted only nice comments in the Malham and Lalacelle live chats and know it all, nasty/ attacking comments towards other viewers in the comment sections of Chateau Diaries and Dan’s channel ( because it wasn‘t participating in the live chat on Chateau Diaries and Dan’s channel doesn’t have live chats? I have no idea). The person behind this account once commented about Hanni being in IT. It is possible that the person behind this account was involved in IT in England and perhaps knows, or feels some type of kinship with one of the dump owners who works in IT or the Dump crew/ one of the individuals who have visited or worked at the dump who have a background in IT or is just an extreme type of viewer for these 2 channels for some reason in the comment sections below the videos. The attitude displayed by the account is markedly different when commenting on Chateau Diaries/ Dan’s channel v. the 2 channels where it participates in live chats.
 
It would sound more impressive in hectares, but I agree, 600 acres isn’t all that much. Where I’m from that would be called having some land, or a few stands of trees. You would need at least 1500 acres to starting mentioning it. Even at that you should be just starting out as a landowner, anything less would be considered playing at it. We were small potatoes at 5000 acres as the family farm had been carved up by deaths and successions. Something else my family would never have done was let the land lie fallow unless it was out of rotation for recovery. Hunting and fishing was for food, not sport. Never let your chickens forage the same space two days in a row. Keep the milking parlor spotless, and warm your hands before you milk Maisy. You certainly wouldn’t like being manhandled with cold digits would you? The land should work for you, otherwise you’re just being greedy. And for pity’s sake don’t sell your mineral rights!

One of Stephanie’s greatest failings, and one which is a source of major irritation, is the way she bigs up the past importance of Lalande. It was never anything special, other than being the local “big house” which had some land and farms, either tenanted or in hand, attached. It was not even the primary estate belonging to a grand family. Unfortunately, the majority of the CD viewers lap up her fabricatIons.

Six hundred acres - pffftt. Not quite a bagatelle but certainly nothing to write home about.

Butt Sweat - it's a medical condition that particularly affects people who sit on their ass too much. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/326897
I don't want to envision Snorty's undies, but he needs:
- undies that breathe better (or start wearing undies)
- to stop wearing tight clothing
- some good butt talc.
