The Chateau Diaries #155 Snorty is a big time vlog killer! Just like 11 year old preserves he is not good

[Albee]

I thought that van had moved but was too lazy to check other vlogs! Good spotting the mercedes, I hadn't noticed it.
Do you think she leaves these clues in on purpose or is she just not noticing it's in the background?

I think she didn’t even notice the background. Or if she did she had forgotten she hadn't introduced her car yet.

 

[Hemerocallis]

I saw that too. Thought it was a squirrel though.

A terrific, really.interesting BBC series featured well-known chefs (with a fistful of Michelin stars between them) taking the presenter to their favourite places where their hidden gems for food are located. One episode was in Venice. I discovered the episode is on Y,/T, link below.

Stephanie Jarvis would do well to give it a watch as it might encourage her to shed her perpetual.tourist cloak. After all, she says Venice is her dream place. Mucb like everything else.she says, take that with a bucketful of salt.

I based my trip to Vienna on the Rachel Khoo episode

This was probably discussed ages ago, but I was watching an old CD and saw this picture in Stephanie’s room. I’m wondering who it is, and I want to say it’s Michael Potts. It’s definitely not Philipp, yet it looks intimate to have it in a bedroom if it’s an ex bf..!

Around 23:50

I'm so so so hoping the dissenting patrons who're gathering under the cover of darkness turn up en masse and express their displeasure. We now know when Patreon Day is due to take place so we could air bomb the chateau with leaflets detailing our grievances.

As Green peace activists. something spectacular.

 

[mousepanda8]

Provide insight. Agree.

Earlier in the tread there was a ex guest who was very critical of her experience - she seemed to have been treated as a inconvenience when she stayed - maybe she would would be willing to help?

It would be fascinating to hear maybe from @Clara Burnett what the first volunteer experiences were like when she was alone just after buying and other guests/ volunteers pre filming days - was she always this bad and how bad has the money monster driven her!

 

[Trengilly]

Gurl, she didn't want to publicly claim Philip! Channel 4 made publicly claim Philip!!
As another Tattler said. She is the class clown / comedic relief of the bunch

That should really tell him how she truly feels about him. The fact she was trying to hide him from her money making enterprises because she deemed him too detrimental speaks volumes. Now I can’t speak for Phyllis, nor should I want to, but I’d be darned hurt by that. Does Phyllis have all the faculties up their to comprehend this kind of treatment?

 

[HalcyonOrganic]

That's brilliant! I'm just picturing HalcyonOrganic wearing a Michael Petherick mask, so yeah, that could really work! We could all keep our anonymity too. Bibs on the 'Baghead' mask.

my my my, how jealous we can be…

Fanny and walled garden!!!
That garden could be a fairy tale. With just a little more effort.
There are thousands of varieties of tomatoes. Seeds can be obtained but also collected because they are not hybrids.
I have sown hundreds of different varieties in the last ten years.
I can tell you that the tastiest tomatoes are neither red nor round. (https://www.rareseeds.com/green-tiger-tomato)

Michael had a nice video in which he planted many different kinds of tomatoes. Got them from the supermarket, extracted the seeds, planted them in the green house and finally made chutney.

OK continuing the posts in #154 after @Clara Burnett 's revelation that SJ has had a few dalliances whilst with Squirrel, perhaps it;s me, but Grant mentioning a 'noisy cock' to SJ is a red flag.

Now he could be being crass, but a very strange thing to say,
Anyway, you decide. Do we leave Grant on the list of possibles ??????? from 7.50 :



Oh and to and from Brico with the theme music is 'It should have been you, another time another place....................'

Don't get me wrong I can't blame her. He's a real hunk is Grant. I hope not, he's a married man fgs.

He also mentions he's back at Christmas

The thing that tips it for me is that during the filming for the whole day starting in the kitchen at breakfast time, then Grant and Fanny driving off into the sunset (brico), returning and manfully constructing the chicken house, placing it in the walled garden and there is no sign of Squirrel boy. Normally he and Fanny are attached at the hip. So where was he and what was he doing all that day? Obviously Fanny called the shots and did not want him around but why not? Imo Grant and Fanny “know“ each other and did so from his first visit to the shittoo 2 years ago. In which case I am sorry for his wife, she shouldn’t be treated so shabbily.

Steph should move with the times and get an Electric Mercedes. The ancient Jag and Aunts Merc might pay towards spare batteries !

 

[LittleMore Cottage]

Too big to be a mouse, def a


Normally I would use traps with peanut butter. As you say always been successful before, but not this time round. So now I've set out bait boxes.

I use something called a "rat zapper" you bait it and when they enter they get Zapped. much less messy then a snap trap- also good for red squirrels ( that almost destroyed my attic) PS don't tell snorty IMO red squirrels are like rats with tails only more destructive

 

[Imperious Me]

I instinctively know, that if I met Caroline Gooder, I want to throttle her inside of 5 mins. She sounds like a real know all, arrogant twat. The kind of school prefect we all hated. That person in the office who runs to the boss to stir trouble.
Oh wait, is that really you Phi Phi
It must be a LaLander. Or possibly Brenda G
I know we’ve discussed it before, but Caroline is a real pain in the butt isn’t ‘she’ and still lurking in the background to spring to SJ’s defence. Thanking patreons is one step too far though isn’t it Steff

What does that mean? Patreons paid for all those tools and machinery?

 

[billybudd]

Thank you.

 

[billybudd]

That’s an excellent passing thought and one that has been mentioned multiple times, and a legal issue - if there are no release forms (since she’s making money, and the folks on camera are helping her make this money). There are so many levels of insanity in regards to how she operates. We sit, and tap our feet impatiently, as someone said waiting on KARMA, the universe to strike back.

The last wild hair I got on this one was that Selmar owns his own image and content -- if he signed no release. Same is true of all the characters.

I’ve seen this name changing tactic in small companies in the US. Get sued for something dissolve the corporation, re-incorporate under a new name, same industry, same assets, same directors, screwed victims. Sound familiar?

I know exactly where you are coming from, personal experience of exactly the same.
I worked for a very short time with a father/son enterprise (think Ns, fraudsters, scammers, scum of the earth types) under the guise of being "ethical". As it transpired, the son had even previously been featured on Esther Ranzen's, That's Life programme : That's Life! ran on BBC1 for 21 years from 1973 to 1994, becoming one of the most popular shows on British television, reaching audiences of more than 18 million. During that time, it expanded the traditional role of the consumer programme from simply exposing faulty washing machines and dodgy salesmen, to investigating life-and-death issues.
I hated both of them so got out asap. BUT, before I did, daily practise was to repeatedly create new companies whilst dissolving others on a constant turnaround basis and using all the same directors etc, which right from the word go, I thought was exceptionally dodgey.
Even the FBI were eventually on their tails regarding Pay Day Loans companies in various states within USA, operated from the UK, obviously! BUT, the pair were all about "off shore" accounts too, wouldn't you know it?
The son really fkd over his first wife in being able to hide so many of his assets off shore when they divorced via that route, unfortunately, she ultimately ended up an alcoholic - no wonder! And the son then went onto to have at least 4-5 more children by various employees too - marrying one but mostly mistresses. Jeez, much worst than any kind of soap opera, you couldn't make it up. I personally found him absolutely grotesque both in looks and personality/nature, mainly personality and of course, he always knew that I knew, what he truly was - thank God!
I even discovered some years later that my name had been mentioned in google searches in connection with them, thankfully, only that I was the "enigmatic xx".
I also recall having conversations with other employees that payday loans were simply taking advantage of the most vulnerable and poorest of the poor within any society and therefore, the practise should be illegal because of the interest rates involved - once in, you never truly were ever able to get out or, pay off your loan scenario! Truly horrendous.
Me and my big mouth, because many of those same employees were shareholders in the original Pay Day Loan companies that the father and son had initially created. Even if I had known that fact, I would still have stated what I thought and how I felt, regardless!

What is Natti's job? She doesn't answer e-mails, she opens and stacks gifts, she doesn't cook, she doesn't clean, she doesn't do the shopping, she's rarely on camera any more... Got her slippers well and truly under the bed there.

Her title is: Ms. Matron de Bully every ttooooo needs to have an onsite bullymaster to keep the lower class (delusional misfits) in check and to diligently applaud Ms. HMN fairytales after all her job perks are free money, free room and board, free food and alcohol and now free pokes from cousin she‘s loving picking through the gifts NOT too much work for dominatrix

Ey! I am a well educated man and interested in a wide variety of topics.

I did a double take on your Avatar for a minute I thought Joe Biden was snuggling YOU

 

[HalcyonOrganic]

Sounds more like white trash to me..... And I'm Asian.

Oh really? How nice.. Age and location please? For my.. ahm database.

 

[Luna20]

And she didn’t deserve your expert consultation but your a rock star

This is the common sense part. I haven't given away anything on the communication and marketing side. That's where shit starts.

Also I truely believe that a lot of her gansta grannies live life through her vlogs. Somehow I wouldn't want that to burst for them.

I see you have caught me!
With men buttocks out @HalcyonOrganic must be nearby!

 

[mousepanda8]

My understanding was It’s being restricted to 200 hundred per day on first come first served basis. They’ve to email Nati on a special email which is hilarious .
Sounds like they’ll be allocated a day, during which access will be only a few hrs ( I’d say a maximum of four) to carry out the tours and ‘lunch’. None of the rooms will be rented as they are apparently part if the tour, so anyone going will have to find accommodation elsewhere. Hopefully the lovely glamping site up the road will do good business, if anyone makes the effort to go.

Maybe that's how they will get do it. Select the very special patreons ( who pay way too much) and gift a lot. Have them tour and lunch and then have them give them whatever gifts they have smuggled over and maybe have them on a grabeux. Carefully select where they can see and deflect that the grand salon isnt ready and they want it to be a suprise. Stephanmemem will probably be there as she wants all the praise and gifts that the dauphines will bring
