I bet he is still slated to do the rest of the downstairs loo, that's probably it, but it means he is still a bit employed by lalande! I bet it is a bit of smoke and mirrors ...
Heres the listing for the Chateau
good point ... The fund was over $3000.00 when they just had 3 backers. Now it has 15 and it is $8053.00, so people are backing at smaller amounts right now ... this is still a LONG ways off from what they need.
On the subject of tarts again I am currently watching Nadiya (ex Bake Off winner) making a tart and she said to make your tart base waterproof before putting your filling in brush it with egg white and put in the oven for 2 minutes to seal. p s. She has made a creme brulee custard sensation tart with nuts and pretzels in the pastry;
If people are stupid enough to part with their money to buy Sillyman and Titty a chateau, then they deserve to lose their money. You can't help idiots.
I had friends who ran a festival that way; you had to buy their currency to pay for food etc. It lasted only one year as it was a disaster. You were forever queuing to buy the currency because you didn't want to buy too much currency.
I just contributed!
Whoops! I got cut off! I meant I just contributed to my local charity!
Money better spent!Maybe she thought that way people wasnt going to be able to find the chateau they are buying online, but it was easy to find. The chateau choice seems made in a whim rather than something logical, but their whole project makes no sense economically anyway.
So let’s say the Kickstarter works (because this is a crazy world and people are idiots) and they get the money to purchase the house by selling tix for the events. Like our Le Comte de Monte Christo said the events take a ton of money upfront to produce, where is that money going to come from?
I am truly in disbelief and I don’t know which is worse that they came up with this cockamamy idea or that people are lining up to financially support it! What do they say about fools and their money…. Yup just when the mutations are mutating
Tatty&Silly's new chateau seems to come with a 1470€ monthly rental income from outbuildings that have been converted. Still doesn't sound like it's enough to cover the costs of the estate.
If they manage to pull off the funding for the place, I promise to attend one of their medieval festivals.

So they are going to use the money that people pay for tickets to their events to fund the purchase of the Chateau. What will they use to pay for all the things they will need for the events that people have already paid for????????? All of Selmar's bands that he mentioned are going to cost a forrtune before anything else.
Just to be clear. If they don't raise the target amount by the end of January, the kickstarter scheme has failed. No money is taken from the punters, and Selmar and Tatty are back to square one.
I'm curious how much they had of their own savings to put in ... and how much their private investor has put in ....

Honestly not even in my wildest dreams I would have thought this were the news. I'd be incredibly surprised if this worked. I agree with some previous comments. The crowdfunding style is setting a scary precedent.

I've only just steeled myself to listen to their "business plan." I thought I was hearing a couple of 8 year girls in the corner of the playground when I hear that the "Duchess" wants her kingdom and the amethysts from the Prince's crown back. (You can be the princess and I'll be the Duchess.
What about me? You can be an Earl or a Marquis.). Seriously? This is your plan? If you need help with your creativity, I think you should enlist a couple of primary school pupils to up level your writing. This has to be a wind up, surely?

The Kickstarter money will cover for the down payment, few months of living and the estimated costs of the first festival. Of course you're expected to become a patron to fund the rest of the loan and their renovation and living costs in the future.
Tatty & Silly, it feels like we will soon be watching the equivalent of a car crash in slow motion and we won’t be able to stop ourselves from looking
