Non, ce n'est pas le cas. Mais assez bien pour paraître fluide sinon articuler les choses avec précision. Les lecteurs IG ne recherchent pas la perfection.

Good, the less time he spends there the better if, as some suspect, Fanny hankers after the odd Manuel worker 🤪 I couldn’t bear the thought of Grant and Fanny, I really couldn’t 😱

i was talking about the 1992 Water Law and was just commenting, that ties in with some of what she said on the Vlog. I was making the point that the water police visited many years before the 2020 directive came in. Reading the below, she would have known about the Water Law when she bought, but just chose to ignore it. The 2020 European Directive has piled the pressure on!

What is a water body?
It is the area of the property which is bought, sold, or rented, that qualifies it as a water body or pond. If it is less than 1,000 m², a water body is described as "pool", and therefore subject to no specific regulations. If the property has a surface area of water greater than 1,000 m², we are in the presence of a pond, which is likely to fall into one of the categories provided by law; it is therefore important to know its date of creation. Indeed, the water law dated January 3, 1992 struck a profound change in the legislation.
But water bodies are complex works, which may fall under several regulations: water legislation on fishing, on town planning, on the environment, even the Civil Code. Moreover, such an acquisition is worth considering. It is important that the parties and their notary tackle several questions, in order to avoid setbacks: what surface, when was it created, what is its legal status, its supply mode, equipment….?
Depending on the responses, the applicable regulations will be more or less dense, more, or less complex; in extreme cases, the competent administration may even go so far as requesting the deletion of the water body, which is not in keeping with the standards.
Water body: maintenance, draining
Maintenance
Once the acquisition of the water body is completed, one needs to remain careful. Indeed, all owners must maintain their property (manage the vegetation on the dams and the banks, ensure proper safety conditions for people and structures, etc.), regularly check the proper functioning of the structures (drainage system, end-of-pipe fish condition ..), carry out the required changes (setting up a diversion for example when the pond is on a watercourse) after favorable notice to the competent authority, carry out regular draining (respecting the periods, the frequency, the protection of the environment, sediment management ...) and use the opportunity to inspect the water body and its infrastructures, more thoroughly.
Drainage
It must be done every 2 to 5 years, when the hydrological conditions are optimal and by notifying the competent services, at least 15 days in advance. The Civil Code specifies that properties downstream should not be drained or flooded. The Environmental Code adds that the following must be respected: the outlet of any structure on a watercourse, a minimum flow known as "reserved flow" (10% of the average flow of the watercourse). The owner will have to monitor the present species, mainly plants, by avoiding or fighting against the propagation of those, which are invasive (ex. The Primrose willow).

Well researched Irish Lou, yes poor Fanny hasn't a leg to stand on with regards to "not knowing". In France a survey is carried out prior to ownership. This encompasses the structure,electrics, water etc. Any issues with the grounds, i.e. trees, ponds are also included in the survey. All this is carried out before the lender releases funds to the purchaser. I always remember an early episode of ETTC in which Dick was holding a thick A4 binder ( with God knows how many hundred pages), this was the surveyors report. In addition her legal rep would also investigate any issues that the owner would be in the future responsible, So, if you pardon the pun, Fannys excuses hold no water.

Get over yourself, already, HalcyonOrganic. :) If I was guessing, I think you maybe "camp" it up somewhat. I really don't know. :)
That is just what a mother does with her "very straight" son, when he lives a way away from her and it was truly delightful. He is 30 years younger than me, therefore, in essence another generation and, unfortunately, we don't always truly "connect".
Yesterday, was the exception through our outrage of the abuse witnessed via Patreon.

Okay, yes that's a real possibility. Let me share a short story, highly distasteful, but bear with me...
An Australian Federal Police investigator friend told me that one of their arrests involved a girl who couldn't get rid of her highly abusive boyfriend, so in desperation she downloaded child pornography onto his laptop, then dobbed him into the police. It backfired when she discovered her boyfriend was into it. But both she and the boyfriend were arrested in the end - her for the illegal download and him for his disgusting and horrifying perversions. So, simply being outed as gay, or loitering for company wouldn't necessarily ruin Philip (unless he was seeking payment)... but hiding something on his computer would.
