So you have done the expected, and set up Patreon. Before you delete my comment, why not explain why you believe that others should be paying for refurbishing your house? I am sincerely interested in your response? Don’t you feel even slightly embarrassed or even ashamed by attempting to gouge “followers” of their money? However, I’m sure that there are those on that “nasty internet” who will help to finance your lifestyle. Or is it simply a matter of what your emotional intelligence is telling you to do?

Dearest chateau friends,

I have been exposed yet again to rich people trying to get internet strangers to enhance and pay for things that normal, not rich, people take care of on their own. I think it’s a bit much and don’t like it. In response, they have forced me to create my own post on tattle before someone else tries to steal my thoughts.

As you may know, YouTube’s Chateau Chat tries to shine a snarky flashlight on the nonsense of the chateauverse, but mostly Chateau Diaries, as a lot of the other chateau channels seem to have their stuff together, or at least try to. On Chateau Chat, I have three life goals I try to convey.

First: home. Because there is usually nothing new or special going on at the Chateau de Lalande, I have been chatting about the renovation going on at my house. It’s a 1950’s Florida ranch style house and the oldest house I’ve ever lived in. Having an old detached, fairly open to the elements laundry room is a bit of a hardship for this stay at home mom. An old carport that my car doesn’t fit into easily is also another bummer. My barrel tile roof is not a color I would have chosen and I’ll never be able to match my new two car garage roof to it, so I will have get a new one. Lots of contractors and tradesmen working together to complete a common goal. It truly is a beautiful thing.

Second: community. My South Florida neighborhood is desirable and the houses at the eastern end of my street are a bit expensive. My house is on the outskirts of this cute coastal enclave. After my house is fixed up on the outside, it should help everyone else’s property values go up. I think it will be one of the nicest houses to about 3/4 of the way down my street. So it’s a win-win for all. Having a better looking house to drive by on the way to and from their fancy places is always a plus.

Third: family. I am fairly certain that a lot of normal people have questions and concerns about the lack of progress happening at Lalande with all that money constantly coming in month after month. Lots of promises and big dreams, but no real results. Some people refer to the viewers that voice these normal observations as being trolls or haters, but I call them beautiful people and friends. Stephanie Jarvis has brought us all together, united in a search for truth and transparency.

Thank you for your continued support,
Jules or Julie or whatever

Well, well, well....

https://www.patreon.com/magicalmodernistmansion

Dear supporters

We have had the upsetting experience of an internet troll creating a fraudulent Patreon scam site using our copyrighted name and deliberately misleading people. So in response this person has galvanised us to create our own legitimate page so no one can take it again.

As you will have seen from YouTube The Magical Modernist Mansion is a fun life-affirming adventure and with three serious aims

The first is our creative and restoration journey to save and breathe life back into “Can Punxes” a beautiful but crumbling gem of a building. This is hugely complex (and slightly scary) not least because it is a protected building full of frescoes and hand painted walls and unique iron and stonework. This cannot just involve standard DIY but will need specialist conservators and craftspeople.

The second is to share our adventure of getting to know the local community and vibrant Catalan culture and ensuring that Can Punxes is part of life in the town again.

And the third is creating a community of lovely people so we can all support each other in whatever our own dreams are. There is a lot of nastiness on the web and people trying to drag others down. So we want to do something positive.

Thank you for your support.

Ollie and Camilla

Help!! We bought a 1.5 million euro house and ran out of money for the restoration! But luckily our friend taught us we can easily live beyond our means simply by begging for money from strangers on Patreon. Isn't the world filled with life, laughter and love?!

@desertisland I am sorry I missed your post in the last thread. I can’t answer most things without it being a guess on my part however I think SJ (hi SJ) is getting very uncomfortable with our presence. I will tell you that we are prepared to ask questions at the event… and not only our group but others that are attending are going to be doing the same. I would imagine that her family and friends will have her surrounded so they can shuffle her away. It’s ok though… she can’t be shuffled away from the tax department, etc. She has created a fine mess for herself. Also - SJ don’t forget to mail those checks (the full amounts listed on YouTube) to ALL of the charities you said you were supporting. Looks like you may have missed some. I am sure it was a mistake or of course - not your fault.

They filmed for Channel 4, that will be shown in the fall, the Marquis's bedroom and sitting room. One looks like a Mideval theme and the other, I couldn't tell. Amaury is also doing internal shutters and the Grand Salon.

Escape to the Sha-oh recent vlog

Anyone able to explain the rocks Terrier and his mom piled along the dirt road?

Ashtray seemed to have rather erect perky nipples. He must be excited by all the gay volunteers he shags while Terrier is off secretly brocanting with mommy and smuggling his purchases into the Sha-oh.

P.S. Ashtray’s chest did look rather nice in that Lycra shirt. He may be working out. Perhaps heading to Sitges soon to meet up with Beatrix Potterick and Oggie?

Those pictures are so sad. Stephanie and her delusions of grandeur aside, I've always thought LaLande was a lovely old house and seeing her willing to let it crumble while she stuffs it to the brim with tat is infuriating. Stop remodeling and shopping for more junk you don't need and spend the time and money making sure your house is clean and solid, you dimwit!!

All the 'volunteers' they have, and those windows look like that... with paint on the glass so old it must have been there 50 years! Lipstick on a pig comes to mind... She doesn't intend to be there forever, clearly there's a bigger plan.

I think it would be in everyone’s best interests for @Clara Burnett and @Isabelle6541 to have a James Bond type code phrase greeting that they both know to recognize each other, just incase. Something like, “The chateau is so very cold and damp today…”, replied with, “Yes, but only because that bleep would rather not spend the money.”

Philip, can you start a 1950s, mid century apartment in the attic space near Narnia that can be a new rental space? A year long project that you do?
And she's bloody off again! Because a 1950's mid century appartement would be so in keeping at lie lie land. It would be darh-ling. Ffs. Maybe they could wall phi phi up like an anchoress. Feed him little tidbits that he's allergic to (everything then) through a viewing hole.

You have got the do Gooder wrong she is on our side and wants Squirrel boy kept hidden away for 12 months. The only thing wrong with this plan is 12 months is not long enough, 12 years and it could be a goer. Well done Caroline finally Fanny’s money has been well spent on paying you to do her bidding.

I am wondering how this trip to the UK is gonna work..

Tartan terror has already been to the London flat and hopefully cleaned it up a bit ( and hung some new curtains hopefully 😂)

Snorts and Slut are driving over with the Mercedes- timeline of when is unclear.

so the flat which is currently full of junk is having mummy and Percy stay! How will that work!

I reckon the red van ( which hasn’t been seen in a while may now be road safe - timeline distorting) will be driven by Dan over and then filled to move the books, bed, chandelier and the fountains that they bought and drive them back to the chateau or store them somewhere..

I also suspect the next London blog will be more shopping at second hand/ antique stores here

Sorry to burst your contrived bubble Gooder but the only thing Phiphi does in the attic is play dress up and pretend to be queen of HMN.
