Have you seen the tax figures in my previous posts? Patreon, GMF, and YouTube are completely unregulated. The whole thing's one big scam!

I found your posts a bit far reaching to be honest, and I don’t want you to take it the wrong way, but it’s pure speculations. The one job of the fiscal French administration is to collect the money that they are entitled. If she needs to pay something THEY will make her pay, even more with all the international exposure she has.

I agree. I have watched a few bits of their channels & they seem a dull bunch. If you have a beef against someone who you did business with it isn't appropriate to post a vlog about it.


The reason why Mr Petherick junior is quoting things incorrectly is because he has probably been given a run down on the telephone by someone about what he should be enraged about. I notice he also mentioned his laugh, I can't see that his laugh has been mentioned anywhere. I thought it was the snort machine page boy who had the weird annoying laugh. I'm guessing that someone who has 12 threads about her might be a little more cross about gossip but has kept her hands clean on this particular issue by winding up someone else and pointing them in this direction.

• On being shown Philip's "Princess" bedroom (Fanny's term) she points out that the colour is SO similar to her bedroom at HMN! I 've been watching the wrong vlog. I though she had the bedroom with the gaudy fluorescent pink painter's tape border. Note to self: Get eye test pronto.
• She takes a gift of some white plates ( not at all her usual flowery, ornate stuff) which Anna seems genuinely pleased with and thanks her (no effusive gushing) and the Boy Wonder immediately chips in to let Anna know that he knew what she'd like as he's been following her style. (Hmm -wonder if he has had a sniff of a more elegant life style and is about to try to jump ship?)
• Fanny, having decided that she will have what she feels is the best room - it's green so she thinks it will be like having a holiday from her similar room!) visits Roadkill , who already tucked up in bed. She then visits Petite Philip in his pink room, where we find him ready for bed - in his green nightdress and with his floral chiffon robe all ready!!!
• Finally - and this is the best bit, PP and LOLL discuss the height of the ceilings, when she says that the height is "Probably similar to our bedroom height!" I replayed it several times - definitely bedroom and not bedrooms, my bedroom or your bedroom.

I threw out some dead flowers earlier today and thought they looked better laying there in the bin than any of Marie’s arrangements

Just watched the joint vlog with Chateau La Fleur- Honfleur. Here are just a few points for your delight and delectation.

On this morning‘s live chat in her premiering youtube video she specifically replied to a question that ‘Philip is not paid by the Patreon money’. She added that ‘all Patreon money is for “renovation” only’.

i don’t get why people are bothered about her paying rent. Marie got more out of the deal than sj. Marie claims to pay rent but who knows what she pays and what the actual agreement is between them. I suspect for the “studio” and living there it probably is a lot less than it could be in return for her helping around the chato / cooking and being filmed for content. Cooking really isn’t that much work. I mean seriously even if she cooks every main meal that is prob Max 10 hours a week. And she prob do it because she likes it / is better at it/ and prefer it than doing other chores or cleaning or gardening
Also perhaps Marie is only saying it in the same sense how she calls what she is doing as a business and fully believe she has made it just because she got a few patrons who are prepared to pay to see the odd video she put out. She has removed all her videos from YouTube which is silly considering she could make some Adsense money from it. I’m not sure how anyone could stumble accross her Instagram and based on what she post there decide to want to be a patron. When there are so many Instagramers who don’t charge and who quite frankly have a much better / creative ig feed.



Sorry Being vegan isn’t some crazy complicated diet. Sj would have been used to different dietry requirements while running the b&b and just life in general. So if someone is “volunteeeing / working etc and room and board is included then it really shouldn’t be some big issue.

Problem solved - just leave the tat out and the disciples will slip it in their handbags. Phil of the Backstairs was waffling on about perhaps needing an embroidery machine, so he may have plans to run up embroidered HMN toilet roll covers, hot water bottle covers, embroidered brushed nylon bloomers. Could be a little gold mine!

If she has wound him up into coupling MOLD bitterness with misquoted tattle then she really is one nasty piece of work. Friends should look out for each other with good advice and pull someone back from emotional actions that could have a long lasting detrimental effect. But that's the thing with friends, they don't always have your best interest at heart and could find it funny to watch the fallout, whilst pretending to be supportive for their own in their life and also enjoy jumping in with the wooden spoon, stirring it up and then sitting back to watch the fallout
Also, what was he on about with the hat. I don't recall anyone posting about his hat. Did I miss that??

@MojoDublin The FB poster was right about defamation and peoples incredible lack of knowledge of actual law.

Also, MOLD does not seem to understand real life tattle and the fact that the right words in the right ears will ensure he never achieves anywhere ever. More fool him.

Just watched the latest vlog. Can you imagine being stuck in a car for 6 hours with SJ and BJJ? OMG, the singing and laughing would drive me over the edge. SJ looks really dowdy in that skirt and sweater especially compared to the much more stylish Anna. Why would you wear a cotton skirt if it's so cold outside? To tell you the truth, I'm so sick of that skirt already. Even though this seemed to be Marie's gig, SJ took the biggest room for herself. I was thinking about some merchandise for the shat-o and came up with the laughing SJ. Have you ever seen the screaming goat? Well, you could have the laughing chatelaine. Whenever you wanted to annoy someone, just give a squeeze and out comes peals of laughter! I might even buy one. I really like SJ in a mask as it provides some relief from viewing that big mouth always being open.

This Chateau will never be her's, it will be completed on the backs of stupid Americans who are willing to pay up for a dream of FR seen in a 'good year' movie.
