I watched a few seconds of Dan's video.
What does that man live on?
He has two children.
How he finances himself and his family. I'm just getting bills, food prices have skyrocketed, pay for a child's trip, pay for training, equipment.....
I won't even talk about Dan's ruin. That's not the topic now.
I have an apartment without a mortgage, a job, and in this crisis I'm a bit panicking.
Dan collects ashes from the ruin. It won't make him any money, except for a little YT revenue.
Someone explain to me, please.

OK, Why did we all suddenly turn Jewish? Why is everyone wearing a kippah?

What Jewish holiday that Tattle Life knows about that I missed?

@Tattlelife and @Moderator
Hanukkah this year begins December 18th (to 26th)! Believe me, I'm Jewish.
Last year's Hanukkah was from November 28th to December 6th. Please make the correction.

I was just wondering that myself! I don’t normally associate it with Advent and Chabad informs me Chanukah isn’t for three weeks!
I appear to have a Kippah, just checked and if I'm right Tattle has used 2021 Hanukkah dates. Google tells me 2022 Hanukkah doesn't start until 18th December. I'm sure @Marquis de Potpourri can confirm and advise @Moderator if so.

Off-Topic Rant:

Why don't doctors listen to Women? Why don't they take us seriously?

The last week has been pure hell. It's been so bad I haven't even clocked into tattle.
I have a stomach ache to end all stomach aches. Severe pain. At the doctor's office twice, then finally, the emergency room, where I literally begged them to do something! The Emergency Doc reluctantly ordered a CT scan. It turns out there is a massive mass on my right ovary.
Surgery is on Friday.

I am hoping for the best but bracing for the worst.
Trying to placate the children and my elderly parents that things will be okay.

Rant Over.
Bought myself a tablet so I can keep up with you bitches while laid up (I mean, you lovely people )

I wonder if SJ understands timelines. I know when you edit, things get pushed around, but this is ridiculous. What happened to Philip? And how are three log burners going to keep the place warm? What happened to the one in the kitchen? Why not fix the one in the room most used? First of advent have passed, no advent calendar? No mention of it at all. But on a positive note, SJ actually worked. First time in a very long time.

Because this idea, women are emotionally unstable still prevails. I have a thyroid issue and got really sick. All in my head I was told. 12 years later someone finally listened.
I wish you a speedy recovery.

Wood stoves are the new and only Christmas decorations this year. You didn't know that? Now you know!

Thanks for this!
Now we can definitively conclude that PhiPhi indeed hasn't changed his jumper for DAYS! He must smell worse than the goat cheese man!

I seem to recall he has driven the golf buggy in the forest at Basmaigne <sp>. Quite erratically if I remember correctly.

Snorts really had his nose put out of joint (!) at the dinner Yorrick cooked - he's used to lording it at the table with the guests but this time they started without him, he was ignored while they praised the food in FRENCH & THE CHEF as he sat staring in disbelief at Fanny, being kept out of the conversation and then flouncing out. Oddly enough he wasn't missed in the comments, compliments flying for Amaury & the new kid on the block, till just a couple asked why he wasn't present so 'Caroline Gooder' huffed that he had to do Nutti's admin. Not sorely missed....yippee

Thanks so much @MsPitstop!!!
I have not watched so I didn’t know who might be eye candy/ none that I’ve seen on there before.

I’m so sorry you are going through this. I totally know what you mean. I’m assuming everyone you saw was a man. Male doctors do not fucking listen. Half the time I even wonder if they even care about people and just became doctors for the paycheck. I wish someone would revolutionize modern medicine.

Stay strong bitch!

MP is in his mid-30s so crack on son!
1. He needs it as he's in the middle of nowhere in France (hard to meet you grindr meet ups!).
2. There is nothing stopping Michael from returning to UK to his license as lockdowns are over.
3. As a new Tattler mentioned that watching the latest vlog from the Pathetic-riks, your partner comments Michael didn't look well. He made a vlog maybe 6 months ago that he diagnosed himself with adult ADHD and was on medication. We all questioned that as that med is good for weight loss.
4. It is too late for Mumma Pathetic-rick to give him some tough love; no Michael I won't drive you to lala land.
5. He has no cash to fulfill his ideal life of Europe gay party life. So he's stuck in rural France.

Personally, I loved the chemistry between Michael and Stef, it was electric. But she's been burnt by him financially. I wish he'd return to Lala land but Sir Snorts is front and centre at the moment so that relationship is over ... until Stef kicks Sir Snorts to the kerb with all his ceramics!

Amongst other things lovely Philip is such a brat.
And his behaviour at the dinner table as you describe it demonstrated this to a t.

Michael P is an urbanite & never needed to drive in the uk and couldn't be arsed to do the paperwork or learn enough french to do the test in France. Now with Brexit if, & it's a big if, he decided to get a British or EU licence, it would involve even more paperwork. Lucky sod, Billy gave him the Merc so he didn't even have to do A Buy Me a Drink Fund for it. Still he was fun enough to be with in the early days that Steph went & got him twice & then Ma P too, did the 10 hour round trip , jealous of the popularity he was getting on the Advent Diaries when he could be spreading a little stardust on their own channels.Ma P is very vocal on FB promoting her boy btw. He was def the golden boy then & not the soiled goods he became when he tinderd & grindrd his way to disaster

@MsPitstop. Didn't see your post but yes, exactly what I mean.
