Mulled wine, Christmas markets and 110% Hamburg; The Breakdown
We're at the airport and the butler is having to work, even as they board the plane. Lyds thinks its hilarious to try and speak German, badly, and lets Cawwie drag her suitcase off the conveyer, 'I don't lift a finger' chortle, chortle.
The party are stopped by airport security who ask Lidl how much her Hermes bag cost her. The butler apparently lightens the tone by telling the armed security they are 'online creators' and will tell everyone if they aren't nice to them, which Lydiot finds very funny.
The theme of today's flog is to try and sell us a hotel stay. Lyds starts by saying she would '110% recommend this hotel', if you google why people use the term 110% you will find it "
comes purely from exaggeration, if anything fuelled by ignorance". Thank you Google!
Room tour; and the thoughtful hotel has put pictures of Lyds on every surface, because they know how to cater for your average narcissist. Everything is wonderful, stunning, spectacular.
Outfit of the day, and Lidl has gone for the Mary Poppins cosplay today. She leaves the hotel to discover the Christmas markets, in a horse drawn carriage shared with Cawwie. Cue lots of OTT gasping and wowing!
We are shown a clip of a very busy market, which cuts to Lidl telling us the group have moved away from the busy area because all they care about is the food and drink.
They order crepes and gluhwein and the butler gives us an expert review of the white gluhwein, 'smells fruity, might be the lemon in it'. Cawwie, Lidl and the butler then discuss their beverages, but struggle to string a complete word together, never mind a sentence. None of them know what a star anise looks like and the butler has always thought it was a 'star aniseed'. Whoever edited this flog decided to keep all of this quality content in. Lyds looks annoyed and walks off. It's unclear whether she is angry at the blatant stupidity on display, or if its because someone else may get some air time.
Lidl is hyperventilating outside an art shop because she wants us to believe she is cultured enough to appreciate art. The artwork is too expensive so she'll look for a print online.
Back at the hotel we get a glimpse of the hotel lobby and then its back to the room for an outfit change, which looks the same as the last outfit, but Lydiot tells us this one has 'more theatre to it' because its got ruffles.
Dinner time and it's Cawwies birthday. Lyds gets a little bossy over how much chocolate Cawwie sprinkles in her drink, and seems genuinely annoyed. She proceeds to show Cawwie how the drink
should be made, and chokes on it.
The next shot is of Lyds sat on the butlers knee, which feels a bit like seeing your Mum and Dad kiss when you're a teenager. You know it happens, but you shouldn't have to witness it.
The next day, Lidl is having a lazy morning, goes without saying, and is heading to the spa. After a spa tour, because don't forget, that's today's hard sell, we join Lyds and the butler post treatment. Lidl has made the hotel staff light the fire and the butler pours her tea as she whispers in a lispy voice how wonderful everything is.
After a burger and an outfit change into a hideous silk two piece, Lydiot is ready to explore more of the hotel. After smelling a £1000 /100ml bottle of perfume, its back to the room to change into a different silk dress, the Bob Ross print one she wore at the Savoy.
They're having dinner in the cellar, gasp, gasp, giggle, giggle. At one point, Lydiot actually squeaks like a mouse because someone opens a door to the wine cellar. We then have a very boring tour, sprinkled with lots of fake laughter and faux excitement. The go to word seems to be 'wow' and Lidl gets deep and meaningful when she says 'there aren't enough years in her life for all the wines I hope to try'.
Sat in bed Lyds tells us what she had for dinner last night and more about the wine cellar, even though we just watched it?! Lidl tells us again to 110% go and stay at THAT hotel to do our Christmas shopping, even though she hasn't bought anything yet. She would '110%' say the markets in Hamburg have a different feel to them, so beautiful and traditional.
Lidl is thoughtfully popping all of the hotel information in to the info box and encourages everyone to book now for next year.
The end.
I looove your breakdown. Promise me/us you will do one each flog ;-)
Thank you. I am enjoying writing them
