It's the not so elusive N's old room, before he moved his family out of her shitshow into the more private guardener's cottage. And way before he decided not to come at all anymore and to stay away from her BS. That room was promised to TrotterBoy when N vacated it, but they never got around to it (familiar stories circulate at the shittoo). Fanny and Snorts sex dungeon has been made very public and features the flogs frequently. The overload of pink toile is a dead giveaway for it.
Isn't that the room that Tomas fixed up for Gerry's visit last summer?

I don't remember seeing it since.

Marie doesn't hang about! She's been busy!
Successful Stories :)
Another future interviewee:
A well known writer of romantic novels.
She lives in a 500-year old thatched cottage in rural Suffolk with her artist husband, a springer spaniel and a flock of rescued hens.
" I’m passionate about the environment and conservation and used to work as a volunteer for the National Trust. I’m also fascinated by the world of film and have always thought that the job of location scout would be fun – linking my two loves of story-telling and historic buildings. "
She sounds fun.(no sarcasm). Anyone who rescues chickens gets brownie points from me! And I like Suffolk, such a beautiful county! 🥰

The cousin seems normal. He looks way younger than her, but he seems to behave more maturely. He also has a job and a real, non-fairy tale, life.
Looks can be very deceiving, I guess. Normal is about as far off as you can get when describing this family member. He's completely in SJ's corner, that should tell us something. He is send by the family after IJ requested help to keep her daughter under control while she remains in SA because of Covid, also because the brother from another mother only adds to the chaos.

Yes. Philip's hand in hers very clearly seen there. There is no doubt (not that I ever had any) that they are a couple. I actually wish them well. Huge advantages in it for both of them.
There would have been had they been open about it from the start. Now that it's just part of the smoke and mirrors game she turned her life in, there are actually more disadvantages. She knows that and by now he probably does too.

I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone....I saw just the same old intro....what was new? What am I missing?
22.07 to 23.16 moat flyovers and dramatic movie music, then they praise Dan What a Man. Gardener, cook, videographer, comedian. 26.11 is a clean moat bridge fly under (I feel like that will be in the new intro) and the drone and music crescendo over the building together. I mean there's going to be some version of that in the intro Dan's putting together. He's not going to leave out the moat he just worked his ass off on. I could be wrong. It would be cool to make the old intro vintage though, and I hope I'm right.

Yay. Retired boomers. I'm kidding. Some of my best friends are boomers but I'm not that interested in their retirement.

I watched it and I still don't believe they're a couple. Phyllis is much gayer than I am and if he's not, then I'll buy a house, marry a woman and have 2.4 kids.
It's called denial. Don't try it when you need to fulfill that promise you just made, it won't work with us :)

i always get the feeling she takes all she can gets...
She certainly is that kind of girl.

Off to try and get SOMETHING done today. Started badly - no sleep and then a parrot in the flue. No that is not a eupherism. I have had small birds get under the flue cap, fall down into the fire box in the past (have to lower the baffle plate and rescue) but this time a parrot dropped out and then flew at the curtains with sooty wings. Stupidly I grabbed it and then it grabbed me - hooky beak two deep purple wounds each hand. No idea how it even fit or why its doodling about on that flue. There is an old chimney to the house (unused) that a parrot couple do have a nest in each year - maybe another pair is looking for a similar spot? That flue is used and it will be a very bad idea. Hope the exp has put this bird off. It has put me off. I have a mess to clean up. See ya later.
Parrot bites are the worst. I've had one bite me in that soft muscle below the thumb. Lots of flapping happened on both our parts. They do terrible things to nuts I need a hammer to open.

sorry dont believe he is attracted to both sexes...i have had relations wih bi men..very complicated...and they were nothing like snort...snort is 100 percent gay...i have no doubt about that..but if you all want to believe something different...fine by me...
This is why the whole thing is to troubling to begin with. Of course he's gay, I don't doubt that either. Somehow however he's truly convinced he can make this relationship with the delusional SJ work. It might be that she's not very demanding in the bedroom, so his duties there don't take too much effort, or she paying him to act as if. Either way, it's very damaging because once again she is forcing someone to not be his complete self.

He did have a girlfriend who he met at Stephanie’s singles party. She gave an update awhile after & said they were still an item. I noticed though that he has slimed down somewhat since then so maybe it is no longer a thing.
Nope. He got dumped only a few months later, the girl couldn't stand the posh family.

Either it’s that cheese pizza still crawling through my intestines, or that hot cousin of yours has nothing to do with social media or has never been taken a pic for the internet. Except for some little business information, there is nothing to find about him online. What is interesting based on his family and his age.

I'm a retired boomer not that interested in my retirement either. What's a man to do? Younger wife, scuba dive, skydive, travel (pre-covid), play classical guitar, ballroom dancing (also covid dependent), project consulting; I don't have time to retire :cool:

I don't disagree, but there's a granny thing going down, and the sizzle when they do shopping porn I'd wager is the most intense hotness those two feel.
Did you see the way he capered when the lady desk she bought him was delivered, and how he stroked the chair? That's his sexual preference.
Perhaps it's a surrogate for being a granny's boy? Hence the older woman fetish...

just catching up on Dans vlog from Yesterday.....its no nice to help his granddad out...but omg why do these people buy these carp houses..i know its a budget thing ..but nevertheless...at your old age..living in a crap like that...knowing the roof can collapse any minute...doesnt seem much joy to me...
We see it so often over here, they think they're getting a bargin and it ends up being an expensive nightmare for them. Buying a renovation project is a young persons game. We had neighbours in our village who bought their huge barn to convert in their mid 60s. Sadly both now dead and it never got finnished after 20 years of ownership.

Grasshopper, that's a pretty hard sell, and for the second time, on an anti-grifting forum.

Are those scratches, moles Or fake heart tattoos on Hanni's face. She is so high strung I thought maybe she was a "picker". My friend's daughter used to pull her eyelashes out. She is on the spectrum. My friend's daughter, that is.
Those matching marks on Hanni's cheeks are a new acquisition. (They are not visible in the Perfect French Minibreak vlog.).
I don't think there can be any doubt that she displays a number of atypical behaviours and ticks a number of boxes under the dyad of impairments.
However, some of the traits of Asperger's Syndrome would actually benefit Hanni in her choice of career and I am sure that Tattlers will recognise many of those strengths.
There can be no doubt that she is an extremely intelligent individual who has clearly succeeded academically. It is also very clear that the behaviours we see on screen are far more than displays of energy and high spirits.
She willingly participates in these vlogs and must realise that many viewers will recognise these patterns of behaviours. Perhaps as an advocate for ASC,(no longer ASD - Condition replaces Disorder) she would consider talking about the challenges she has faced and overcome. As much as I find Hanni uncomfortable viewing, she would actually be an excellent subject for a Success Story - unfortunately FRK would not be up to the task of doing this kind of in depth interview justice.

That doesn't sound too bad, in fact, I rather like it. Those qualities would make a well functioning human.

Interesting, so he's in business with his parents, I presume.

Wonder if he is also an only child.
He has a brother, who created a family scandal by leaving his wife (who was very loved in the family) with their young children for 'a young trollop' (not my words).

Isn't that the room that Tomas fixed up for Gerry's visit last summer?

I don't remember seeing it since.
It is. I believe Nutty was in there for a while, before moving next door to the room Marie just left behind. You know, the one where Snorty was trying to put together that ugly wardrobe that was covered in bird tit.
