And remarkably your pretty face has remained the same! Foxy girlThank you for the new thread @ComtesseRose and congrats to @JackSpratt / @Maria Antonia Hb for a great title.
Many thanks to everyone for your kind anniversary wishes too. I can't believe that 45 years have passed and 2 children and 4 grandchildren later! (I do recall that Elvis Presley died 4 days before we were married.)
Wait for it...Not only that the rim of the cup was face down on the seat !
The Mercedes ass tea goes paarfectly with the ass bread.Not only that the rim of the cup was face down on the seat !
Ah... there it is! The pithy comeback. Bravo @MRShavershamsdressWe’ve had ass bread at LieLande, now it’s crotch cups!
That home gives me the shivers. Far too much STUFF. I hate too much stuff. It just has to be picked up and dusted around & under & swept around. I prefer a few beautiful things which I move around the house so that I see them again if that makes sense. Every surface in that house is covered with stuff. Books displayed on a table not for their content but for their look or bragging of how cultured the owner is. I loathe open shelving, put things away in cupboards or else it's just showing off how much STUFF you have. That god awful pool house built out of wood to represent a temple. Every space in this house is filled with STUFF, too many chairs, too many plants, too many fabrics. I'd be in there with 20 skips clearing out rooms so that you can walk around them, chucking ornaments away so that you can see the gorgeous ones through the mass of dross. If she was let loose at Fanny's she'd be bringing more stuff in & cluttering up what is already a mix of an indoor brocante, a 70s care home & the back storeroom of the Oxfam shopI love Bunny Williams and I am a minimalist! Saw this video too and thought that Miss Jarvis would do well to employ Bunny to arrange some of the farmhouse rooms.
That’s because the Flowers do things properly.The Fleuries asked for permission for their renovations and got it. I just don't know how long they waited, I don't feel like researching. They also have a sign that stands out at every construction site.
What a slap in the face to SJ.
Yes, I think a mighty power struggle took place. I think Stephanie is still terrified of her mother, and Isabelle gave as good as she got. Waking them up, their not having set an alarm or made an appearance, a particularly nice touch.I found today’s Chateau Diaries vlog cringeworthy and confusing. Considering Stephanie has 100% control over what we see, one wonders what she is playing at. It seems she would have us believe that her mother is a cranky old scold, yet we see Isabelle and Percy crammed in the backseat of an automobile completely unsuited for a long journey with two elderly passengers, thus causing us to feel sympathy for both of them. Then she chortles over the small bed her mother and Percy will presumably share (unless Percy has a separate room). Is Stephanie subconsciously trying to recreate the mistreatment of the elderly she witnessed her parents commit? Does she resent Percy replacing her father? Is she taking revenge on Isabelle by infantalizing her? Is she trying to weaponize Phillip as her partner in crime or merely setting him up for Isabelle’s wrath? That she is unaware of how the most casual observer can discern the tension obvious from today’s vlog demonstrates her utter lack of self-awareness, unless, which I doubt, she is playing a long game yet to be revealed.
But, as we all know, the car isn't really IJ's, is it?As its (apparently) Isobel’s car I feel she should of sat in the front seat of her own vehicle. I’m sure Percy would not have a problem sat next to Snorts?
I 100% agree. They all work to a pre-determined/well rehearsed script, without a shadow of a doubt!While I have no doubt that Isabelle is a bit of a raving, lunatic bitch, I found the whole vlog yesterday a bit of an act. Everyone shown had a particular role. We have to remember that what we see is what Stephanie wants us to see. This is the narrative she's chosen for this act of the Chateau Diaries. In Stephanie's mind, focus is taken off the missing accounts, the lack of meaningful, real work being done on her home on the patron's dime.........she thinks - she desperately WANTS - the focus to be anywhere but on accountability, so we will now be shown the comical antics of an old player, Mummy.
It's a nice diversion, but I'm not fooled. I don't think any of us are!
Do you really think Fanny is scared of her Mother? I don't think for a minute that she is. No-one puts Fanny in the corner. It's all to make her look the victim and mummy the battle axe. She's hiding in plain sight behind mama's skirts letting her do the dirty work - metaphorically shrugging her shoulders at her bullying the volunteers, serving up scraps & ostensibly ruling the roost. What can I do? everyone knows mummy is a harridan & I'm just sunny Stephanie who loves her sooooo much despite what she's like. Yeah right. I can see right through this poor little Fanny routine - they're all playing a part & complicit in the on screen scam story.Yes, I think a mighty power struggle took place.

I hope Percy is not as unwell as he seemed, just holding his fire on camera.
I’m patiently waiting for a new post saying ‘Hi, I’m new to Tattle and from Framlington, I found you when I Googled Stephanie Jarvis. You’ll never guess what I saw last week ….’Is the middle of a town really the best place to test drive an unfamiliar car?
There is absolutely no way that Fanny is terrified of her mother. They are both playing to their usual script. However it suits her to portray her mother as a harridan, let's not forget that IJ was complicit in indulging her only child, as well as herself.Do you really think Fanny is scared of her Mother?

Yeah, I think she's terrified, based on the scene in an old vlog where Isabelle is having what is apparently an every day meltdown in the filthy laundry room. SJ walks in with the camera and we get a glimpse of the real Isabelle, ripping everybody (the isolated, carless, no phone-signal, starved, sexually harassed, overworked, uninsured volunteers) a new one. Until IJ catches a glimpse of the camera, which Stephanie had by then realized is her sword and buckler. Isabelle instantly puts on her smarmy smiling French chick face. For the camera. It's almost like the shape shifting we see the orange one doing, for example when he lurched into Hillary's frame during the 2016 debate. Or when showing his puppy belly to Putin.Do you really think Fanny is scared of her Mother? I don't think for a minute that she is. No-one puts Fanny in the corner.
