Did she thought? She pushed her daughter to do A-levels in French at the age of 12. She dropped La Jarvis off at her Bonne Maman almost every holiday.Don't know why did Isabelle reject her French side that much
Even Dawny has one...How many CD spin offs will there be???
I’m just watching that now and yes, they did pay £900k for it, their life savings apparently.Watched Chateau DIY yesterday and I’m sure they said the flurries paid 900 euros for their chateau. Seems a lot considering it needed work.
Poor Dawny, having to tolerate that gurning imbecile.Even Dawny has one...
Oh my I thought it was euros did they pay 900k gbp? They said it was savings and a substantial loan, I bet it is!I’m just watching that now and yes, they did pay £900k for it, their life savings apparently.
I found it interesting to hear that Amaury and Natti speak French to each other so she can learn. Why doesn't he speak French to Stephanie too... I presume because she doesn't want toAumery and Dan discussing it's weird there's absolutely no French spoken at the shitoo.
A: "I spoke more French in England with my family than I now do in France ..."
I like these two!
Can he lift the heavy stuff? He didn't bring his digger!!!3. Its nicer to travel a long way with a buddy and they are great together, plus Dan can help lift the heavy stuff
Just replayed it and it was def GBPOh my I thought it was euros did they pay 900k gbp? They said it was savings and a substantial loan, I bet it is!
Lalande - flog, snog, and grog.I've never suggested one before.. but I have to put this one up for title thread
Lalande, where they flog each other all day long
Nice of him also helping out Nati by speaking French to her so she can learnWatched the part in Dan's vlog when Amaury explains his bilinguism. That exactly what is happening in our family (2 languages spoken : english and french).
Kids speak a fluent french with mum and a fluent english with dad and in french to each others (they go to a local english speaking school).
What a difference with our Chatelaine upbringing.... Don't know why did Isabelle reject her French side that much...
Interesting to hear Amaury speaking of the Lalande community... To be continued IMO.
I feel so tempted to tell him to speak "properly"!Poor Dawny, having to tolerate that gurning imbecile.
Wow.Chateau de Bourneau cost much less and they have the cottages with swimming pools.And they can do weddings...don't think the fleuries could do weddings...Just replayed it and it was def GBP
Dan is doing a great job of growing his youtube channel (along with that comes more patrons). A youtubers #1 job is to create videos. This will be video gold for Dan and he knows it (I think he even mentioned that, I was only half paying attention last night while watching them). I was watching a video yesterday by Tiny Shiny Home where they mention how doing daily videos really boosted their youtube sub count and $$. They are not going the patreon direction, but have their own *Homie* section on their website. They probably get to keep a bigger percentage of the donations. So, so many different ways to make money nowadays, almost makes me wish I was better on filmRe the trip itself, someone earlier was making a few digs on the necessity, and Dan going: my thoughts:

It's good to hear from you and some more about your family historyI'm glaSami Lee

Can you be more precise about what you're wanting of family history? To find out about your own family? Or something more general? (TBH I'm not sure what a night school can really show you
that you can't do already!)
If you're looking specifically for your own recent British ancestors (from 1837 when registration was made compulsory) you could start here
FREE BMD - https://www.freebmd.org.uk/
FREE CEN - https://www.freecen.org.uk/
(I've transcribed many census and other records for these two).
FAMILY SEARCH - https://www.familysearch.org/en/
If you haven't already watched these, I'd recommend:
Who do you think you are? (
UK TV series on notable people's family history - it's a bit light and doesn't show much how to DIY in depth)
Finding your roots
(Prof. Henry Louis Gates Jnr - US TV series on notable people's family history - shows how proper research is done and use of DNA testing. I really like this one, Prof Gates is a proper academic and usually gets to the heart of things!)
Note that all these programmes invariably become tearjerkers! It's often very moving when you find real evidence of your forebears and some of the facts of their lives and struggles.
Enjoy

Thanks for your extensive reply Sami Lee
I would like to join with like-minded people in a class or something so we can bounce off each other.
I will look at what you have suggested. I have been on a site similar to Ancestry and printed off birth, marriage. death and census records but although I am not nosy I do want to know why, both for general as well as family history I sussed out through watching Who Do You Think You Are that my great grandparents didn't marry straight away as one or both was already married. I even went to mediums as I have a photo which everyone thinks is me but it is over a 100 years old and my ancestors on the other side told me to not search online but visit graveyards and where they used to live and also to get family records and photos from a family member as his wife would destroy them out of spite. When I got these records there was a letter in there which made me bawl as it was so beautiful and which made me understand a relative's behaviour due to the terrible burden placed on him as a male child. Through my family tree search I can see a thread running through the family as to why my dad is interested in certain things and chose the job he did - like osmosis. It's fascinating. Sorry for waffling on but thanks for your help.
The Fleuries have one major advantage: location, near the very touristic Honfleur, and Normandy coast... so that also explains the higher buying cost... They could also have weddings, depending on how and when they renovate the outbuildings?Wow.Chateau de Bourneau cost much less and they have the cottages with swimming pools.And they can do weddings...don't think the fleuries could do weddings...
Could be.But the Bourneau chateau looks very disneylandish, something that ßeems to appeal to many people.The cottages can support the renovation cost . The Fleuries have only 3 rooms?The Fleuries have one major advantage: location, near the very touristic Honfleur, and Normandy coast... so that also explains the higher buying cost...

Perfect title!Lalande - flog, snog, and grog.
Don't see why not- plenty of room for a marquee. I think it would lovely. I am sure that Philip would be far more professional in his approach to their client, unlike Ed.Wow.Chateau de Bourneau cost much less and they have the cottages with swimming pools.And they can do weddings...don't think the fleuries could do weddings...
