Does she have any idea how ridiculous she looks, or how green the fountain water is? Sick.
Makes one wonder how often that fountain water is changed. All the fuss about the espalier trees, the rosè bench, the lavender and the alliums, which are just another species of the garlic/onion family but as toxic as all hell to cats, dogs and birds, but hey, who cares about the animals you have when the plants look pretty and the guests have somewhere nice to sit... and when guests do sit there, they are greeted by the sickening, vomit inducing pond scum of la Lande.

Rather apt, one might say.

You my find Inner child therapy may be useful... there are exercises you can do yourself before you consider a therapist if you were to go down that path. If you were to ask your siblings their recall of a particular incident each of you will have a different memory of it, which may be useful in gaining a different perspective on outcomes. This obviously will not erase your own recall but may change some parts of it as they may have been different to what you remember... false memories.. All any of us want is to be loved and have caring people in our lives and there will have been some if no then then as you grew up. Whatever happened to you and your siblings was not because of anything you or they did. The parents created this situation and as a child you were helpless to flee it. Resentment although understandable will only continue the feeling of undeservedness and lack of affection, don't allow the past to ruin your future. xx

Why didn't they run workshops previously? And now guests are only there on the weekends for 2 nights. When you're only spending 2 days in the area who the hell wants to spend the time in a floral workshop with FRK putting weeds in a jam jar?
People would want to because its all part of the La Lande package... You tube creators and the characters within the content are a form of 'celebrity' so for a half day floral intuition, given there is nowhere else to go, I think a few guests would participate...

If this is indeed the plan then all of this has the hand of Fanny all over it. Petherick encouraged to do his wallpaper gate vlog, gets more ££, cry me a river vlog, gets more ££. If it is the case that Marie is in cahoots with Fanny about this then it smacks again of her encouraging Marie to do the same. Double win. Fanny gets merit points Mother Teresa saviour that she is & Marie gets dosh to set up another failed enterprise. Hey let's encourage someone else like we did with Selmar. Even though we know that there isn't a hope in hell that Selmar could get a chateau or that Marie would make a successful business in the arse end of nowhere..it makes Fanny look good & after all that's the filter that she puts on her life to fool people isn't it. I don't know what to make of all this nonsense now.

Agreed - the woodwork looks fabulous and Fanny wants to 'tart up' Amuary's craftsmanship and expensive wood with gold paint. It's a travesty and if I were Amuary I'd be royally pissed off.
In most cases, gold work on exposed panneling can look exquisite. There are five ways to achieve the look - a pencilled design with gold leaf, a pencilled design with gold paint, stencilling with paint, stencilling with gold wax, and rub-on furniture transfers. Who there at the HMN has the talent and artistic skills to pull off any of these options? No-one. We've seen the incredibly bad attempt Fanny made at painting the gold trim on her bedroom doors, so if she attempts the gold work on Amaury's panels, he won't just be royally pissed off, he'll throttle her!

Nati, Dan, Philip and IJ need to come up with a similar stories of anguish and trauma that led to depression and thoughts of suicide to quickly reinvent their images now. Formula is tried and tested now - problems solved.

Love the young lad in the background laughing at her! Fanny, you are making a complete fool of yourself in so many ways.

As far as I know, that boy's face should have been blurred. In the EU, you can no longer show children or publish photos on any medium without consent.
For example, I have to sign a consent for every occasion when children will be photographed, for example in school activities, and the photo will be published somewhere.

@Lady Avonlea, thank you for posting the Patreon video here.
A couple take aways:
-Why don’t they trim the yellow tubes in the courtyard?
-Cuban coffee with guests, 3:00pm and Stephanie is in her bathrobe.
I've just figured out the yellow tubes! It all makes sense now! I don't know why it didn't click before!

Dan has a septic tank bunker down there under the fountain, and the yellow tubes are feeding chutes, water supply ducts and air vents.

Better than my constant thought, Iolair, for some reason I always think of Snorts when I see those flaccid yellow tubes, and it's not a comforting thought!

In the case of Fanny, she’ll apply gold to the paneling…and then fill any gaps with a yellow crayon!

Fanny can't even hang 2 strips of wallpaper without having to use a coloured pencil to fill in the gap.

I'm pretty well convinced those freckles are fake. Applied with spritz of fake tan and allowed to darken because she believes freckles give her a more youthful glow. There's plenty of YouTube vlogs on fake freckle application. If they were real, and if she spent any real time outdoors, she'd have freckles on her arms, shoulders and cleavage too. She couldn't avoid it what with all the skimpy outfits she likes to wear - and I don't see her being careful enough, or thoughtful enough to wear sunscreen.
