The friend that SJ claims to work closely with her new pet-charity is named Marina Kim and she is actually its director and founder, so SJ again is keeping the money close to home. Pre-covid Marina was a regular visitor of the HMN and is part of SJ’s raffle of boyfriends, they at least share Oliver and James Jardine. It hasn’t been long since they were all working overtime to keep Marina in the UK (she's a Kazakhstan-born journalist now living and working in London), as she was about not to get citizenship because there were complaints filed by a well known Tory politician who she intensively and brutally stalked, claiming he was leaving her subliminal love messages in his political tweets. Great charity material indeed, SJ, good pick.


There's a subcategory of chateau porn I was hoping someone would find. Hopefully find lalande is the set for some of it.

So Nati who opens up all the presents in advance & therefore knew about this would have run it by SSB as to whether the scanties should be given to Marie & they thought it would be hilarious to embarrass someone on camera by giving her something that they knew she would be embarrassed about receiving. My. what a piece of work those two are.
Why would Marie be embarrassed? She doesn't mind running around braless and do some nude boobs pics. Just wait, soon she will post herself wearing this thing on Instagram 😂

I think Marie is body confident on her terms, as she should be.
Feeling pressured to do anything isn’t cool. I’ve got to watch this CATC.....

Tattlers should club together to buy some truly awful tat or try to find some dreadful garbage to send with a carefully composed fan letter and then we can watch the reaction and send something else later on telling the truth about what we sent and why we sent it! What is really sad is the fact that the people who send the tat must be completely unaware that what they are sending is tat. It somehow makes it worse when you realise they have no concept of that fact and absolutely no awareness of Stephanie's lifestyle and the value of the gifts she really desires. Either they are really simple folks with very little knowledge of the outside world or they are secretly private "Tattlers" like us who are playing a huge joke on SJ and falling about laughing watching her. Sadly, it seems as if they fall into the first category!
Dear Stephanie and Lalanders,
First of all, thank you for making the pandemic bearable for many of us!
Your vlogs are so amusing and inspiring!
You're living out your childhood dreams!
Here are a few gifts in appreciation for all that you guys do!

For Marie, this Louis Vuitton wallet. I know that she's leaving soon and she will enjoy receiving something more expensive than Longchamps.
For Nati, a pair of Jimmy Choos to wear on her nights out (if you let her) with friends (if she has any).
For Selmar, a Philippe Patek watch so he will always know when it's time to not give a f*ck when you're talking.
For Philip, I know how much he loves squirrels so here's a taxidermy squirrel from 1922--just be gentle with it. It used to have a lot more hair.
For you....I know how much you love to travel and blue and white (and yellow).
So when my fiancee and I saw this antique blue and white Starbucks tumbler with a yellow lid from a local brocante (yard sale),
we couldn't resist but buy it and send it to you! The former owner said the dark rings on the inside are stains from a very expensive type of tea from Target.
I hope you'll love it!

Love....
Marquis de Potpourri

Not sure where the definition of working class saying 'what' came from! Everyone I know says either pardon or sorry and children get told off if they say what. In fact it's the common refrain of parents. ..it's not what - it's pardon. The worst thing is saying 'eh?
That reminds me of thing my mother used to say "don't say - - can I? say -- may I? Of course you can, but I decide if you may!" She was not posh, but made sure we watched our p's and q's

SJ in the granny dress had me thinking however is she going to show of her old silicone hard as rock boob job that never moves. Reminds me of the ones on botched done with carpet adhesive that turn into globs of hardened stone done in some back alley plastic surgeon office you find out he never went to med school.

She’s ‘opening the door’ for something like that to happen. The majority of people who open mail, PR, gifts, use a PO Box and don’t want anyone finding out their address. Of course, some in the States are more fanatical over you tubers and have been known to show up on famous vloggers‘ doorsteps, if the address gets leaked. I know it wouldn’t be difficult to find her address, but she flashes it all over the CATC, It doesn‘t scream common sense to me. So yeah, safety should be a concern when people start to travel again.

If I were in that position, I’d be doing background checks before letting anyone stay with me. But I’m a Scorpio and trust very few people.
I hope the rooms have secure locks on the doors, I wouldn't want to rely on a chair under the doorhandle to protect from mad fans.

This is seriously batshit bonkers 😧 He got a restraining order!

Looks like she met him before the stalking began.

The partner swapping in Stephanie’s friend group is unusual, especially given they aren’t teenagers figuring things out. Makes me think that dating for them is about conquest rather than connection.

If anyone sent a gift that was truly awful then later sent a note or letter explaining why such tatty garbage was sent...well, in the first place, I don't think the gift would be shown on CATC, especially if it LOOKED like garbage...and, if by chance it was shown then the note or letter explaining why it was sent would never make it past Nati...She says she pre-opens gifts so she can check for food items that can go bad but, in my opinion, she culls out the really bad stuff and the notes and letters that she deems, as Brenda does, as "bad PR...I know I'm not explaining this very well but I really don't think that either the gift or the note would make it past General Nati...she's like a drug or bomb sniffing dog and nothing is getting past her if it threatens to shine a bad light on her Queen Bee.....

We could send her a large box stuffed full of packing paper and nothing in it so that we can watch her reaction when she can't get her greedy mitts on anything. I've always wanted to do that. Has she stopped doing Cack at the Shato (CATS)? Maybe she's run out of space for skips and doesn't know where to put all the crap, though I suppose there's always the local tip. Selmar could take it there in a trailer hooked up to his toy tractor... 🤣

After seeing the Elf clip, I think the “For Someone Special” Santa negligee would be the paaaaarfect gift. I mean, she loves Christmas. Duplicate the card in the movie complete with a pic of James Caan.

Then we all chip in and buy Marie a Hermès Birkin and watch Steph have a heart attack. (that’s sarcasm, I don’t want her to have an actual heart attack...I’d settle for an intense look of horror and a grandiose exit from the room.)
Again...if you sent a Hermes Birkin it would never see the light of day...and Marie would never know of its existence...Do you really think Stephanie or Nati would allow her to get it?...

Is she body confident or thinking she needs to be? Just because you are body confident it does not mean you need to post nude pics of yourself. Or the other way round just because someone does not post those it does not mean this person is not. I see so many people having nude epics of them in the living room taken by a professional fotograf (because then it is "art" and not just porn) but would not get undressed at the gym in the shared dressing rooms

Regarding sir Trotter's mental health, I agree with things that have been written. I can't imagine living in the middle of nowhere and face mental health issues. He doesn't speak French, so no local therapist. He would have to have someone drive him to Laval, take the train to Paris in the off-chance there may be a therapist, who can speak English with him. Doing that twice or three times a week...
- Maybe it would be a better use of that Patreon money, than the forlorn "Beatrix Potter" cottage. :unsure:
He could have Skype/ Zoom sessions with an English speaking therapist. Everyone from GPs to naturopaths do online consults these days thanks to Covid.

We'd have to enclose a note encouraging her to try the negligee on immediately,which Stephanie wouldn't hesitate to do anyway; she always rushes off to put new garments on and display herself on camera.

Dear Stephanie and Lalanders,
First of all, thank you for making the pandemic bearable for many of us!
Your vlogs are so amusing and inspiring!
You're living out your childhood dreams!
Here are a few gifts in appreciation for all that you guys do!

For Marie, this Louis Vuitton wallet. I know that she's leaving soon and she will enjoy receiving something more expensive than Longchamps.
For Nati, a pair of Jimmy Choos to wear on her nights out (if you let her) with friends (if she has any).
For Selmar, a Philippe Patek watch so he will always know when it's time to not give a f*ck when you're talking.
For Philip, I know how much he loves squirrels so here's a taxidermy squirrel from 1922--just be gentle with it. It used to have a lot more hair.
For you....I know how much you love to travel and blue and white (and yellow).
So when my fiancee and I saw this antique blue and white Starbucks tumbler with a yellow lid from a local brocante (yard sale),
we couldn't resist but buy it and send it to you! The former owner said the dark rings on the inside are stains from a very expensive type of tea from Target.
I hope you'll love it!

Love....

Agree, you make a good point. Insecure people taking super flattering nude/semi nude photos to show off is endemic these days. But you’d never see them let it all hang out on the nude beach.
Truly body confident people don’t care what others think.
What makes me think Marie has some good body confidence is because volunteered to be the life model for Oliver’s art class on ETTCDIY....letting it all hang out.

We're halfway through a thread. Can I suggest a poll that runs until the end of this thread to get a consensus of opinions.
How about a vote? That way everyone gets a chance to have their say.

Independent Threads for the chateaux. Vote :ROFLMAO:

Combined thread for all chateaux. :mad:

Quick reminder that there is a poll on post #469 so that everyone can have their say.
