I think you're correct in your definitions. The things you listed I would also classify as restoration, but what we see the most on the vlogs Id say is renovation, maintenance and updating (is there a technical term for bringing an older building up to modern standards like in heating?)

The word "restoration" is used rather loosely at the chateau. Proper use is as you described. But it can also be used to just mean bringing something back to life and use , not necessarily back to the original .

No! You don’t want to do that! You should really, really reconsider! There’s a lot of baggage “upstairs” to unpack with that one.

Wasn't he run off this board? Lol

Maybe that's where he got the idea of wearing sunglasses a lot. The music is sometimes similar too. That style does not suit Dan and is not a good idea!

it's a much better idea than the mumbling and wheezing in the unwatchable Selmar & Tatty or Marie. If he's going to steal a style, he picked an entertaining one.

Fanny had for sure more than normal contact with snort before he came there..i missed this vlog...omg...he has heavy make up on...the old cow was still there...she missed the opportunity to send him back to Maastricht..i presume..and now she is stuck with him in SA..i hope she gives him a hard time there..i dont like that old skeletton..but i hope she is giving him a good brush off..

I think it's acceptable if it's natural to the person doing it and maybe CN is showing his real self but when someone is just acting a part and copying someone else, as Dan is doing, I find it very irritating. Dan is witty enough to make some interesting vlogs without putting on a different persona. He just needs to think of some interesting new ideas for content.

i can tell you one thing..aristocrats do work..i have my doubts in England.but here in The Netherlands we do...when i came across the 7th marquiss of Bath..and one of his wifelets i for sure wanted to kick him in his lazy ass..but i didnt.. i just walked away .and talked to another guest..some people are better ignored..the same goes for that Voice of Holland team...its going on for years..and not only there..

And Phiphi's comment that seniors use those steamers had me laughing! I think he fancies himself an expert on seniors too ... another connection point with SJ who grew up in a nursing home ....

I think he was saying ‘singers use them all the time’. My god, he follows two years of education and thinks he knows ALL about the ‘singers’ in the world. Arrogant stupid boy.

He isn’t a good singer and he will never get past the ensemble roles. I know a couple of musicalstars and they first of all went to the better theatre schools in Amsterdam or Maastricht, worked their butts off in ensemble roles and back up positions for the leading roles before they even began to get some succes themselves.

Can you all imagine PJJ working as a back up?
He is the star in his own world and acts like the sun king on his heels.

I watched the videos of him singing "Oklahoma" on his YT channel. I'm from Oklahoma and considered his interpretation of the music ghastly. It was like watching a terrible high school musical. He can't sing. Also, Oklahomans don't wear that much flannel. It was like watching a grunge Seattle version of "Oklahoma". Very bizarre.

yes, you're right! "singers use them" .... well, you two professional singers go ahead and use the old nasty thing and see what it does for your lungs and throat!! Mouse poo and old bat shit dust must be great for giving you those sexy raspy voices!

This just popped up on my YT feed and I am totally confused. It's a vlog from South Africa but the stamp says "1 year ago"... I don't remember Stephanie and the gang going to South Africa in 2021?

I met him a few times in the line of work i do. I always found him knowledgeable and good to talk to. I could never understand his way of living, but could acknowledge his eccentricity. It certainly worked for the estate as a business venture. He was charming to my children as well.

I very much doubt they will announce anything. They will probably stay silent, as they have been for weeks.

...used to think this as well...that she was a foolish, stupid woman...but I looked past her game...her constant acting...the way she uses weak, gullible men...and have concluded...she’s quite tough...her shadow self is strong...and clever...she is accomplishing what she never anticipated...her bank is definitely strong...and she seems to be getting away with it all.

...so...we can disagree...and that’s just fine...
