Thanks, edited my post!



Yes, there are roadblocks and police at the tolls. You might be right there! no one takes the scenic route if it adds 3 hours onto the trip.
Right and they wouldn’t have been able to produce a negative test as results weren’t due till the following day!

"Cos he's shit in his own shoes and she doesn't want to get soiled. Remember she's a narc - REMEMBER? She's not a "friend" but she needs to be perceived as one. Whether his distress on the recent vlog is genuine or not, to the Sycophants and suckers (OO good thread name "Sycophants and Suckers") need to be fed the PERCEPTION that she is a caring friend. You can bet she hasn't actually phoned MPK and said "How are you? Tell you what, set aside all this crap and come over for a week or so. Chill out. We'll cook and get pissed and sleep and just switch the world off and give you some breathing space." No, if she did that he might say OK. He's soiled goods now and she doesn't want to be tainted by association when the BIG TV execs come calling with the Contract BIGGER AND BETTER THAN THE sTRAWBRIDGES BECAUSE, AFTER ALL, IT IS her!

Very good points and you will see from threads there are many sensible suggestions and concerns raised to SJ from whom is representing her, copywrite, safety, tree risk re ivy behind chapel, etc. I for one love her earlier vlogs. Such suggestions can be helpful. Let us not forget the structural engineer watching MP2 cubby house reno who pointed out the lack of roof support which no Petherick or Sean or the timber cleaning man had noticed.

Do we know if she has been dropped from the ETTCDIY series as well yet?

I just picture her as the Irish actor who plays Mrs. Brown in the UK TV series.

Good pick but we'll have to ugly him up a bit. He should be available now MBBoy's is ending/has ended.

Of course "Bedroom". He is, after all, "PAGE OF THE BS" - he sleeps curled up in the corner by the fire (broken radiator) like the good little King Charles Spaniel that he is. You have a dirty mind Jeeves - don't you go regularly into your Master Wooster's bedroom?

Of course. Excuse the lack of clarity in the ironic delivery.

The only one buying her skin deep concern is herself.

Re SJ not directly commenting in anyway on wallpaper-gate.
There were multiple suggestions on facebook that SJ and other presenters on ETTCDIY may have NDAs in place re any aspect of the presenters, similar to the embargo on showing rooms/projects which are part of show.
This explaination could have merit.

So trying to gaslight we Colonials old boy/girl hey? You know what you've done? Every time I go past a thrift shop I'm going to be impelled to go in looking for a porcelain rat to send to Crap ATC. There is a Royal Copenhagen mouse on a sugar lump that looks a bit ratlike but I wouldn't spend the money and Royal C wouldn't be snotty enough for her. If you're going for rhyme we have Shat already in place "She shat on the rat in a hat" or "The rat shat in the hat" - not at my best at this hour in the morning. Maybe it's time for some Haiku.

I could even stop by Spain at some point but I would need a negative test to enter Spain (done less than 72hours) but that's it.
Forgot to mention that the antigenic test in a pharmacy is only about 30Euros and the PCR one in a lab is about 55Euros.
But if you have a carte vitale (ie, if you have the free french universal healthcare, which you can apply for if you have been working or just residing in France for at least 3 months) then you don't even have to pay anything. It's all taken care of.
So let's just say that having to get tested would not be a big hurdle anyway in France.

I know, I asked the question...?
Ok, I wondered who it was.

I remember a video she did where she told the audience she was
Any value for Anna and plugging her chateau is not from the sweet but barely followed Marie. The value to her is all exposure through SJ‘s prominence and vlogging. I mean in the car we saw that SJ and Philip shared the driving as Marie “couldn’t drive a manual“. Also. Marie would have had to hire a vehicle and pay through the nose for that on her own. I do sometimes get the feeling Marie is at LaLande because she’s run out of options and came “home” because her last foray into England didn’t pan out. I can’t put my finger on it, but she seems dependent, even unhappy and quite snippy sometimes. Try to imagine what it must be like sharing aspects of your life on a YouTube video. If you feel even vaguely insecure it must be pretty hard going

And can people just be tested Willy nilly then?

like where I am you can get tested if you have symptoms or have been exposed to.
if someone go on holiday and need a test they need to pay privately for that.

OK...I'm in the dark here....who is MOLD?
Mpk aka man of the lost design ?

oh absolutely but mari chose to be on cd and also chose to do her own yt to cash in.
I think she is just a loner and need her own space. She will probably thrive living alone or with just one person.

Yes you can just get tested just like that because you want to.
In a pharmacy it's an antigenic test and you get the results in 15/30min. (swab of saliva)
In a lab it's PCR (with long "thing" in the nose) and it's more like 24/48 hours results but can be faster or longer depending on where you live.
In both case they will ask you if you have symptoms but it doesn't really make a difference, perhaps for a PCR you will get the results faster if you do but that's it.
And I guess if you say it's because you want to travel, you might get a bad look from the pharmacist or the doctor/nurse, but that's it, you'll still get the test, you don't need to justify why and you dont need a doctor's prescription to prove symptoms...

France is still a bit slow and late on vaccines compared to the rest of Europe but it is now quite efficient regarding testing.
