Sorry I cannot take this too seriously. Anyone who states that they love Fanny’s shittoo must be lacking in perception. What is there to love in the crumbling car crash of a propretry.
There's a whole school of aesthetics known as ruin porn. Hitler was into it. I don't think Jarvis is, though. I don't think she thinks the shittoo is a ruin. I think she thinks it's Emmaus or Vilotti chic.
Plus, there are people like me here who are long time readers/viewers of people turning derelict properties into fabulous dwellings. The best upcycle the wood/stone/brick of the ruins. Appeal is resurrection, like The Repair Shop.

Hitler's aesthetic, for those of you following along on the fascist aesthetics course. Just remember, Bowie and Jagger watched *Triumph of the Will* (Riefenstahl's propaganda masterpiece about a Nazi rally) 15 times and believed Hitler was the first rock star.

Skellawhore probably likes being punished... Dana looks like the type to give it to him... Hes been a cocky prick and witches too much... A real construction crew would have go fetch coffee and do all the grunt work just for being a whiner...

He is clearly out of favor and I think Amaury is part of it. The haughty way Amaury instructed Dan to cut the joints in the pergola beams -- and is refusing to let Dan use his tools for it (I wouldn't either, actually) -- is a mark of Dan's demotion.
But Amury did let Grant use the drill to assemble the cock house.

My garden aesthetic is quite different, and I live in a sub tropical Zone 10. However, I think Davey’s rejigging of the entry parterre and the pleached trees is inspired. Despite serious limitations he’s added a sense of arrival and a scale previously lacking.
I concur. He talked her into a Renaissance/Italian parterre for the old wing, based on nearby Chenonceau, one of the world's most famous gardens, possibly Moorish based, venerable, tasteful and completely unknown to mockDisney dung-for-brains, IT'S LE NÔTRE SWEETIE Jarvis. Also more sustainable -- his plan calls for non box hedges and wild grasses. The Jardin Anglais was what Davy talked her down to from her desired boxwood maze, a Petri dish for disease (a peach tree dish, for those following MarjorieTaylorGreeneZilla, call the gazpacho!). He's done well for her, and the ranting vlog comment is totally ill-informed. Well, except for the idea that if Jarvis had been willing to spend actual money on the potager.....except now that she has, she made another crappy £6500 choice. Oy.

Is this why Grant reassembled all of Percy’s blue tools in another location? He had to gather everything Amury threw out? Lol lovely Amury was able to share drill though. Although Amury was right there and it was a quick-ish job.

There is nothing more annoying than lending out tools and them never being returned!

My friend P is now trying to swing it with Natti by showing how he can help her beloved Am in not having to share his tools, simply get Dan to grow his own. The tape vine is the best !

This is not the Margie Lynch that watches all the videos. I don’t know if I have been hacked or someone is using my name. I would never ask a rude question. I only found out when I looked at my page!

@larrimo s My name is Margie Lynch. I did not ask that rude question. I watch Dan’s videos and would never disrespect him like that. My phone was hacked. Someone made ugly comments on all the videos that I subscribe to. Will try to fix it. I am sorry, but I don’t recognize the person on the cooking show.

Is Stephanie for real that she opens her legs for that sack of turds called Philip?

Iolair
This is Iolair. I deny asking such a rude question. I don't watch Philip's channel. But I would never disrespect him or Stephanie like that. My phone was hacked. Someone took all that time and trouble to go through my youtube subscriptions to specifically hunt down and Philip and Stephanie just to make that horrible comment. Will try to fix it.

(Yes! This could actually work! It worked for Margie, it could work for me!)

Well, here's the dealio on the Dan/Am bromance. All was harmonious UNtil Annaliese sequestered Natti for a couple of days, explained the reality of life with DTM. NattiVelco related all of this to Armoire (who is appearing to be a bit of a 'sheila' atm) which rendered poor old Dan, dangerously pergolaring solo. 🤷‍♂️;)

Is Dan the camera man for Dana's Cookbook?
(I thought her knifework was respectable, the ras al hanout for the Pate de Paques very cool, the local Berry recipe very cool also.
Veal, maybe not so much. Storebought pastry, cool.)

Yes, it's as though you're arriving at a drive-in boxing ring... quite exciting..

As Dan hasn't a scintilla of a clue about building a pergola, maybe he should dive into Y/T for instruction. Quick search and I found loads, including this one. Posted 2 years ago when the world was adjusting to its covid-induced hiatus, it's had something like 5.8 million views.

Store bought pastry? Pastry is so easy to make, and you can put butter rather than the bloody awful shortening they use.
