  • Fanny pulled out all the stops inviting every warm body she knows for Easter - 32 people + others who couldn't come (missing Potty, Ruth, + Lady of the Chateau folks).
  • Fanny realizes how badly she needs the Fleuries 'YT Fairy dust' to rub off on her as the entire vlog was viturally the Anna & Philip show. Anna looked elegant in her black outfit vs. Fanny who looked like an aging grandma in tacky gold lace. Just the thought of the lovely Fleuries socializing with Tess Hoffman :sick: .
  • Interesting to see who was invited for the Saturday night party vs. others (ex: Sabine, Kirsty) who were only invited for Sunday & the egg hunt. Was Sabine helping Dan sit with his boys on Saturday night?
  • Speaking about MIA - Amuary definitely must have a DO NOT FILM clause in his contract. No shots of him, even with his parents. Things are not all Life, Love and Laughter at the shiteau.
  • Where was Scotman??? He was there for C4 filming, but did he leave before the Easter weekend? Very odd!!!
  • It certainly seemed a bit more like a family friendly affair this year, with Tante & Once, many kiddies & kicking a ball on the yard (they are listening to us). Lovely that Snorty and the children had puppies and lambs to play with.
  • Why would the silly woman not pre-test the fountain before trying to turn it on with filming???
  • Is Snorty's time up?
    • Fanny kept in the bit about Snorty giving away 1/2 the shiteau, but it's not his to give
    • Fanny didn't cut out Snorty with a drink in his hands in the woods (Me thinks the boy as a problem)
  • Sadly, I can't get this vision of Steve in bunny ears out my mind. :sick: Now he's just a 'bunny out of water'
  • Mummy's eye-sight - it's actually very good news, especially since it means Mummy can return France soon, sort out her daughter and kick Snorty to the kerb
  • The Fleuries place is clean and tidy and nice bathrooms (+no pornographic art) vs. the shiteau. 🤣
  • Anna & Philip, please do not go brocante shopping with Fanny and/or Snorty. If you must go with anyone, let it be Sarah & George from Chateau de Brives who have lovely taste more in keeping with your home.

I just finished the Easter episode and I loved it!! Very little Snorts and the Fleuries’ babies had soo much fun! All the kids did- it was a better vibe all around- Steph wasn’t bouncing off the walls and she seemed genuine pleased to host everyone.



Genuinely*
How convenient that SJ could walk around just fine and no mention of that pesky back pain??? Seems to be selectively hitting her- at the most opportune times. Or the pain meds are doing the trick possibly? 🙄
If Anna and Phillip and family had not been there It would have been way less interesting. The rest was the same ole, same ole to me.

Did the bunny bring the accountant's reports? Tried to watch the latest episode but didn't make it too long.

Not to mention her running through the woods to get to the Easter big loot. Not plausible with back pain unless chocolate is her great motivator!

So who was missing? Teabag potts, Marie, Kat, Ian, Selmar, Scotman
Ollie & Camilla and girls
David & Donna

Easter 2019 food .... looks similar! "millions of quiches ..."

It should be noted, you can see Baghead without his bag on on the couch, only time I remember him on the vlog without his bag.

Curious to know how many cleaners came in over the last few days to whip that place into shape??? Especially with the neat Fleuries being included!!! SJ lit a fire under some to show the few rooms that were shown. But I’m sure it wasn’t her or Snorty doing the tidying and cleaning- Oh she did put those bracelets and jewelry in the jewelry box for the little girls....had to show that! 🙄 She’s so kid friendly, you know it! 🥴
Some saying they enjoyed the episode today- but knowing the background it’s hard to stomach for me!!! I’m underwhelmed! 🥱

I finally watched the Easter Extravaganza. I think that @Lady Avonlea hit all the points that struck me as odd.

I can certainly understand how some of us (myself included, and I was a bit surprised by it!) watched and actually enjoyed it. For me, it evoked the feeling that first drew me to watch in the first place! That said, I cannot shake what I've seen in the past few months, to include some of the things I've learned here from all of you. Turns out you really can put lipstick on a pig!

Someone needs to tell PJ that just because he's "sleeping" with the chatelaine, it doesn't mean it's his to give away! To see him strut around there, when he was barely alive when she bought that place, as if he owns the place is off-putting.

Why does Tess Hoffman always looks so bored?

And Natti - what was that dreadful outfit she was wearing? And that hideous red schmatta around her shoulders? It was like grandma meets hooker. I think I spied Amaury with her just as she was showing off the "sexiest dress at the party"....he quickly moved off camera, though, never to be seen again.

No words for that stupid looking dress Stephanie had on. I'm glad that her donation to that designer's school (all from Grabeaux viewership) netted her some less than spectacular, dead people's clothing from God knows what era. Hideous.

There was some talk about the expense of this party. From what I saw of the brunch, they certainly didn't go all out. That brunch was fairly inexpensive, as far as party fair goes. Don't know what the dinner before the Saturday party was, though.

And I stand by what I said regarding the Chateau Honfleur folks. I'm disappointed in them. Do I think they will lose viewership? Probably not. But I think they just may have lost little old me.

I was underwhelmed- just my opinion. Springy dresses for the occasion should make sense. I didn’t even think Anna’s black and burgundy ensemble was all that/ would’ve liked to see her in something springy/ but maybe she was in something with springy colors on the Easter Egg Hunt day/ or was that casual? Not sure but anyway....just underwhelmed. 😳
