Imagine being a co-owner with Fanny. If the Nick abdication is true, it is understandable. Since Prinfeff Shteff (thanks Halcyon, i think) persuaded him to fulfil HER dream of a fairy castle, the situation has changed greatly. He financially supported Lie Lie Land whilst the b&b limped along before Covid. The music workshops each summer also helped offset his costs but were hard work with a full house and providing 3 meals a day.
Fanny decided to rip out the Grahnd Sahlon a year too soon thereby ending that revenue stream (work) and also limiting the now successful b&b to weekends only !
If Nick visits his dumping ground of a cottage he is greeted by 5 resident employees, 2 non resident employees and myriad volunteers. Plus on the weekends, the fawning flatterers are dining too ! Previously he would meet with his ex, a few friends and acquaintances from uni days, like minded or at least, interesting. Diggers and dumpers and drills and bowsers abound, also ensuring a relaxing sojourn.
Now that Fan Flash is raking in the moolah only due to HER (grinding hard slog ??) videoing and editing, this bounty is also hers. IF she stayed in bed until sunset, as she would prefer, there would be no income from youtube or patreon. What’s mine is mine and yours is mine too. Even though Fanny may be charming enough to be financially successful YT-ing only from her London apt, Nick and her parents have constructed the platform of lie lie land for her to reap the benefits today. I cannot imagine Isabelle or Nick are being reimbursed from any media funds. In fact, just recently, Flippetygibbet announced that Nick and Potty would also be contributing to her heating system!
The final blow for Nick is the ever present Lord of the Manor, Little Lord Fondletoy with his ‘extraordinary’ (!!) eye for historical detail, faffing about and being PAID to do so. It is not surprising we haven’t seen Marie or Antoine in this paradise, for ages. I would definitely want out of that melee also. A S A P.
