That dress is Dolce and Gabbana??? I knew I didn't like it. Somewhat out of touch with the real world n'est pas? And the cat looks so sad But then wouldn't you if you were donned by fanny...

Goodness I’d be useless on a jury as both you and Jules make a compelling reason either way

Etsy is always way overpriced on things like copper pans. I could pick up 6 copper pans in good conditions on fb marketplace locally for under €10. Etsy is not a good rule of thumb. Look at the stuff that Sean's World and his wife sell on etsy. They must have a 200% mark up. I know Sean does put a lot of work into some of his pieces or sends them off for replanishing but his mark up is very high when you see what you can pick them up for.

Actually Princess, that’s not exactly true. Viewership in Ch4’s syndication areas does affect the amount of money they get when it’s sold to other regions. Several factors make up part of the purchase price, including viewership, region size and even time of day. It’s somewhat complicated, purposely so imo.

I wanted to laugh but that bit about the gun at the end soon stopped me

Don't try to eat the crusts Dan... Can't believe Dan doesn't know the end of the loaf the heel... Some chef!
My child (who's not really a child anymore) tells me it is the "quignon de bonheur". He learnt this at école when he was 3. He also calls it the quignon de malchance... We, his parents, call it the knobby end. You don't really get a knobby end on English bread!

I’m puzzled as to why SJ showed the vase purchase. It just opened her up to criticism. Like many other purchases she could have kept it private. Any theories?
You can tell she isn’t married, many married women would unpack it, dispose of the packaging and put it somewhere inconspicuous and when asked say “Oh that, it’s been there ages, you never notice anything in this house until it’s old and then I get accused of spending money on new things

My grandmother would’ve called Nati’s condition “having the bed spread” from regular connubial relations.

Here you go @Arfarf. Dana (and most likely Dan were in Venice) and Nutti (and Amaury) are meeting up in Italy.
Dana is also promoting the chunky jewelry, again.
She is looking forward to a Curtis Woodside cooking get together.

Curtis has grand plans to cook with Dana in Italy.
From his IG stories, May 30, 2022.

Is Dan really ill, or is it just a ploy to cover for his Italy trip???
@escapetoruralfrance
Hi all, turns out I jinxed myself the other week talking about man flu, and was viciously struck down over the last few days with the medical worlds worse known case of it. Anyway today I was back to relative health and got the camera out so hopefully back on the wagon from tomorrow!

A splash for me and the boys after school yesterday at the lake it was super hot. The boys have had chicken pox and iv been knocked off my feet for over a week with some nasty virus, but we're all much better now. I feel the lake will be visited alot by us as the weather is set to be scorching this week.

I’m not feeling well, so M made me this get-better-bouquet. Me and a ladybug that flew from outside both find it very sweet

I does make me wonder, How many others are ill; Auntie, Pavlina, other volunteers and guests???

My guess, Stephanie Jarvis attended Tess Hoffman's birthday celebration without Philip Janssen.
I do wonder if Michael Potts traveled with Stephanie??? Why is he not with Ruth??? Or is Ruth hiding from the camera. I do not blame her if she is.
Philip Janssen, has been tasked, looking after the sad flogs, live chats and comments, as well as lording over the help at Lalande.

Think I've figured out why Natti is so lousy at geography. Almost every parcel Natti is puzzled by the postal mark like she's never heard of the place (or doesn't have a cheat sheet in front of her).

Natti's making it up! Fanny is sending gifts to herself so the real addresses/postal codes are actually France or London or wherever else Fanny has been lately. So Natti has to lie, and make up a fake US state or a country up so it sound's legitimate. That's why Fanny always looks so puzzled.

Do you end up paying duty on gifts sent to you? Another chateau mentioned they had to not accept gifts over a certain value as they had to pay a tax/payment to get the gifts.

The cat dress reminds me of an episode of Will & Grace, when Karen is wearing a sweatshirt that says "I love mes kitty".

My family gave me a tea shirt that says, "If they are books, It isn't hoarding".

My best friend wears charity shop finds and looks fantastic. Stephanie can do that also.

Stephanie, perhaps you can update the description box for next week as it goes to February. March, April and May?

YouTube takes a while to get the final money totals to Stephanie per month. She didn't wait when she needed to get money out to the Ukraine charity, she just covered the money

I have to say Dana looks beautiful, sassy and confident in this photo. Empowering.
(She should tie her hair back more often!!)

You know someone would’ve spotted it eventually….And asked her about the huge albatross!

Oh you do with all the present day artisan bakeries.
When I was growing up it used to be fought over in my home, especially from a freshly baked bloomer loaf with a thick layer of butter - delicious.

I said Naples for Natti. She either has an ex there or family. Maybe she needed the divorce papers signed...

I can sleep better tonight in the knowledge that Caroline 'Stephanie' Gooder Jarvis is so well informed and has given her blessing on hoarding and crap charity shop finds.
