@graciemckitten Loser Herbert Philip would fall apart if he had to stay at the dump for one month straight and was not allowed to spend money on online auctions or shopping.

Oh come on Gracie you seem to have forgotten that the twit just hates travelling. (Or so he says)

Do you think that either of them have ever spoken a truth in their life?

This line that he hates travelling is used to reinforce the image to their audience that they spend most of their time at the dump which of course we know is a lie. Say it often enough and some people will believe it.

@LaReynedEpee Well I don''t think that Mel Gibson will be worried when he sees Phillip in his kilt . Where on earth will Phillip wear it ? And at the cost of a hand made kilt in Scotland I don't know that many tourists buy them..maybe a tartan scarf yes a kilt no.

@johngraham8794 Believe me, the shops on Princes Street sell plenty of them to tourists. Who knows, maybe he'll wear it to his wedding.

@LaReynedEpee But he didn't buy it from Prince's Street this is a hand made kilt... and why on earth someone Dutch would want to wear a kilt to a French wedding is beyond me.. unless he thinks he is Bonnie Prince Charles ..

I have to admit that me and my younger sister once freeze framed Braveheart when Mel Gibson is climbing up a cliff and his kilt blows up a bit, to see what he was wearing underneath. Spoiler Alert: white undies. :(

Take a deep wee drinkie Lady A......... did you hear that Snorts is going to do needlepoint pillows as he loved that one on the sofa!!!

Still..... don't pour your whisky out yet....... that lazy bugger HAS to DO it and we all know he does not like to put energy into anything - except shopping. :cautious:

Two things afore I pull the shutters down on today.
  1. @tuffiti thank you for sharing the latest patrons’ video. All I can say is, wow, Stephanie actually knows some seemingly normal, well-adjusted, articulate, natural people. A proper family. Lovely house. The kilt tutorial was fun and interesting. I have to admit to a frisson of delight at the prancing twerp looking overwhelmed and unnerved at what he was being told. He clearly had no idea what “white tie” meant, which was a very special moment. Why, I wonder did Liz (?) decide to allow her chum to film her family during this visit, and for the four of them to be front and centre of the vlog? Not, I feel, their natural territory. That’s the conundrum.
  2. Marie and her question to find some freelance work for the Lalande off season. How, pray tell, does she think a rather vague post on IG is going to magic up job offers? Disappointment beckons if she doesn’t make more of an effort.

Thank you @tufitti! 😘 ❤

I agree with you 100% @NotAChatelaine ! This was one of Fanny's better vlogs. A normal, beautiful family in a lovely, clean home. Exceptionally polite children. I found the kilt tutorial interesting as well.
 
O god ….I can see it now…….Snorts is the new Jamie….they’ve even photoshopped his lips…..he’s found his new thing to copy and obsess over….Outlanders instead of Lalanders ……we should have seen it coming……

Philip actually resembles the girl, and Stephanie the guy...

Also, how difficult is it to pronounce loch the Scottish way when in Scotland???

Instead of that Pussy Sporran the husband had Snorts could do a Squirrel Sporran - they are small enough! 🐿 😁

That wild cat sporran is in extremely poor taste. You don't do that to a protected and endangered species. You just bleeping don't. I'd be happy to bash his head in with his own sporran, because I am mighty and would do this in a heartbeat! People who like that kind of thing (including Philip) need to bleed. Disgusting for me to see, especially since I just recently lost my own little Dragon Li cat Tipu (looking here at her most vicious) - and the Dragon Li cat looks just like European and Scottish wildcats, only smaller - closely related, they share some of the same genes.

Well said NotAChatelaine....Fanny's shitoo bears no resemblance to the tasteful Ballindalloch Castle which was primarily decorated in complimentary shades of cream, pink and green with the odd touch of tartan carpet giving a nod to its Scottish ancestry.

No wallpaper coloured in with marker. No tacky Ardmore vase. No worn-out, discoloured lampshades. Lots of proper lighting.

Discrete wallpaper, portraits properly light and clean comfortable furniture with no bird tit stains in sight. Just one needlepoint pillow and no tacky cartoon pillows of Snorty, Fanny and Ratso 1.0.

Unlike the Marquis Suite, there's no unfinished gaps in the panelling
View attachment 3258640 q

Restful boudoirs painted in calm shades of green & pink and quiet wallpaper and no faded, wrinkled Pepto-Bismisal pink fabric drooping off the walls. No liquour trolleys of booze anywhere in sight or piles of books gathering dust.

Beautifully displayed china with no piles of porcelain cluttering every surface of every room. Asian themes are tastefully highlighted without any painful, blood-red walls or cliche black furniture resembling a tacky Chinese takeout.

Clean, functional passages with no cobwebs the size of Fanny's gargantuan hands covered in peacock & bat tit. Not one pervy painting in the whole damn place and no back passage stuffed with blue & white porcelain on display.

She also called the very tasteful Ballindalloch Castle... a "chateau."
Which says much about her that is unprintable.
This in turn says a lot about me... 'cause I don't usually hold back.
But this time her stupidly in her being unable to appreciate the difference has me lost for words.

It was real and it brought me to tears. I am not usually emotional but in this case, and as a cat lover, I am viscerally and egregiously appalled by them all. They disgust me as well.

Update and here we see Baghdad…dancing with Fanny……a little disappointing, as I was expecting the Elephant Man.

and she told us how to pronounce Glamis, whilst still saying lock …..idiot……
but Snorts had a whale of a time and broke into a toothy smile after stealing away a staff member from his onboard husband…

All in all a very special trip was wasted on them…..drinking and shopping is their schtick….but it was nice to Dee Marie so genuinely happy and appreciating every minute.
so I think it’s now safe to call Fanny and Snorts Loutlanders and pray for the taxman to cometh…..

The cat was from 30 years ago ,people thought different then. My Mother had a fox fur.stole.. It was a real dead.fox that you wrapped around your neck. Thankfully people have evolved. I do think he didn't need to show.it in her vlog. And Ioliar I am sad and sorry for your loss.

Knitters all over the UK in memory of Remembrance Day topping Post Boxes and local areas. Fabulous

We have the same locally. Also,the church has a cascade of hand-knitted poppies falling from the belltower, a waterfall
of red.

Pic is not “my” church but another one in the area - there are quite a few churches that do the same all over the country. It’s a rather lovely form of remembrance.
