The Chateau Diaries #196 Nothing ever gets finished and often never even started

[Lochness Monster]

Good work exposing the whole summoned to parliament shenanigans. Why would the French parliament give a hoot about Fanny and her scheming? Answer: They wouldn't. She's a spin master for sure. One of these days she's going to spin herself into her own web of lies and deceit. ‍

Maybe he will work out which door at the dump Is not locked while Squirrel is hiding his nuts in the garden one evening

There were discussions here some days ago about Madam Pinocchio's parliament vlog. I thought it was odd she would be called to parliament to promote e-begging. It looks like some of it was exaggerated for her audience who would believe everything she says as they don't live in France.

Well, she says she was summoned to parliament by her local MP to speak about her patreon account. Their insta & FB pages say she was invited to an event by an organisation called Activ'Berry to speak about investing & succeeding in heritage where she spoke about raising funds (begging) to restore a historical building (her home). She was one of the speakers at the event which was held at part of the parliament building & anyone could apply by email if they wanted to attend (I think they paid a fee). The assumption by viewers from other countries (& her narrative & clickbait thumbnails) is that she gave a speech to other govt officials about her patreon account.

Address of The National Assembly in Paris (Parliament), 126 rue de l'Universite, Paris
Address of where the event was held (Hotel de la Questure) 128 rue de l'Universite, Paris

The links below show more pictures & details of the event if anyone wants to see them.

Also for those who are fans of the Fleuries. If you want to know the total (estimated) cost of their renovations & the cost of their rooms per night, check the link below. Have they ever mentioned the total renovation costs to their patrons? The article didn't state they got the renovation funds by e-begging. They only mentioned bank loans, insurance, their ytube account & they stated they will use money from their guest house (not patreon) for more renovations (liars).

Good work.
Her click bait title should be brought down as an outright lie.
or.. is squirrel coming up with these ridiculous ideas? He will be the death of the channel

I am so sorry Mr Spratt.. I agree the loss of your mother is extra hard.

 

[Le Comte de Monte Cristo]

My condolences and sending love @JackSpratt.. also a speedy recovery to @Banshee..

Losing your mother is the hardest thing what can happen..Then you realize your not a child anymore...your place for support, understanding and feedback is gone......i found it one of the most difficult things i had to deal with..although you see it coming..it hits you like a hammer..

Let me see if I've got this right. Maria went back home to Cyprus to be with her family until the BnB starts up again. Pavlina went to MM for how long? So what happened to them being a so called couple? Have they uncoupled? Will Pavlina have to hop from one chateau to another just like Selmar and FRK? If I had one of those chateaux, I would get security cameras pronto so that I could be on the lookout for "refugees" coming from LaLande. Quick, turn off the lights, lock the door, and draw up the bridge over the moat, another "refugee" from LaLande is approaching.

Everyone is leaving LaLande due to inhospitable temperatures- except Natti and Amaury who will caretake over the winter. They will continue to reside in Nick’s turret duplex which has always had a log burner. Fanny and her Gay Tagalong Sponger will travel here and there in the lap of luxury as usual. Fanny might learn, this season, old friends may not want her to stay as long this time. The Dutch Barnacle eats enough for two at every meal (because he is not paying for it) and does nothing to help either ( because he is not required to) A lonely winter is inevitable.



Oh! I forgot! Yours Truly, Caroline Gooder

I was thinking about why Phyllis is all of a sudden cooking. A few thoughts came to me. One, Maria is gone. Two, Mom and Dad are coming so he wants to show them he's not completely lame and hopeless. Three, he doesn't want any more falafels or empanadas. 🧆 No empanada emoji, taco is as close as I could get.

NOthing like a hot tuna and peach casserole on a cold winter’s night

I didn't want to get into the "do we have proof" thing as that seems to irritate some. What I really wanted to say, now that the cat is out of the bag, is there was never any proof, just speculation. I did state "so called couple" to couch my post. I know we like to have fun here but sometimes the matchmaking scenarios posted here remind me very much of some of the rabid granny fans play matchmaker on the CD vlogs! That said, I never thought Phyllis and Fanny would announce their relationship because I thought and still do, that Phyllis is gay, nor did I see AnneMarie and Nasti's coupling or Selmar and Tats. What the hell do I know about love? Obviously very little! Now, nothing surprises me. Ruby and Thor?

I think we probably need a Speculation Station emoji now kinda like a spoiler alert!

F4F is all smoke and mirrors, manipulating the narrative to fit whatever agenda she wants to push that day that will bolster her ego or present a false narrative to keep the grifted money rolling in, by any means possible.

F4F has been intentionally videoing misleading statements and inconsistent/contradictory videos about her wealth, lack of wealth, trips, store bought fake “ honors”, volunteers, gifts, the charity channel proceeds, the status of the accounts, why Larkin and her father purchased the dump ( originally to flip, not as a fairy princess home for the little orphan princess), the now “ boiling” Dump that employees are fleeing for the winter, suddenly loves and frames Daddy’s pervert paintings, projects she was going to finish, etc. Where is Davy and all the bulbs they were going to plant ( now that I wrote this, expect a Davy video)?

She is alway trying to present an image that is untrue to get money, attention, views, etc. for herself. That is why I posted the link to the Chrisley sentencing memo, because it has some factual situations in it that are not dissimilar to F4F using people, stiffing people, greed, self aggrandizing at every opportunity, entitlement, etc. all to benefit herself 24/ 7.

Since we are officially in the holiday season, maybe a title for the next thread should be , “ We don’t want you for Christmas F4F, we want the ACCOUNTS!” Like the song All I want for Christmas is you.

Everyone! Stop the presses! There’s a Live from Doing It Ourselves scheduled for 3:30 pm Eastern Time (little less than 2 hours from now)! Michael’s gotta get these in before the end of the year so that 2022 isn’t a total waste! Nothing like waiting until the last minute to announce a live vlog.

It was pretty 'meh' in my opinion.
Mo and Sadie were there as support.
They avoided personal questions coming in and kept everything very 'light'.

He has plans to extend his merchandise line with items like t towels and oven gloves.
I hope he learned from his wallpaper experience and licenses everything this time round.
Anyway, it was good to see him back more like the old Michael.

Scary hairline.

Edit: They should stop taking closeups of their faces in their vids. It's not flattering.

I think she just likes having a concubine that she can control, who will serve her hand and foot, can ignore him most of the time, can freely insult, will make her the focus of everything 24/7, and has forgone his education and given up his youth to invest himself solely into managing everything with travel, the Dump, the Patreon and YouTube accounts, etc. so she has no obligations except to film herself and others with the little pink camera. He has no outside interests and doesn’t want to leave so she can treat him any way that she wants.
( of course, he is manipulative, controlling, nosy, an enabler of F4F’s shopping addiction and copious alcohol intake, and raids her jewelry box and closets).


I think she hides information, accounts, conversations and certain emails or texts with Potts/ Larkin/Mummy.

She dumped the rest of the responsibilities on Anne Marie and the Angry Argentenian.

I think that Anna and Philipp may eventually flip their chateau.
My reasoning is that to help get to the point of owning their current place, they flipped properties.
I won't be surprised if 'down the track', they put the chateau on the market.

I think they will too. Flip it, cash out, take the money and run. I think that if more people understood what they were doing, they would not contribute to their Patreon or watch their videos.

I understand that people are free to watch and contribute money to whomever they please, but it just seems sleazy, exploitive, and pulling at the heartstrings of viewers to be ebegging for contributions to restore or renovate a building for their family (including the 2 small children) when they really are just doing a business venture where they just want to flip it and make a lot of money to enrich themselves. To me, that puts a different spin on the “lovingly” hand painted walls, etc.

They are slowly revealing their true nature and motive with the Tesla, wanting a sailboat, cutting down on videos and projects now that they have lots of subscribers and a big monthly cash flow and are making subtle comments revealing entitlement to the monies generated by YouTube and Patreon. They are just another flavor of F4F. The influx of money and attention just makes their true self emerge and show who they really are and what they truly value ( which can be different from their public persona and narrative portrayed on YouTube).

Union is far more exciting as there is more body contact.
Found a photo of some thighs for you. Both taken by me

Now that's what I call a thigh!!!

 

[graciemckitten]

I think the reason Maria and Pavlina have fled the Dump for the winter is only partly because the Band B season has ended. The B and B was only 3 days a week. Maria was cooking for the Dump all the other days. She wasn’t there solely to cook 3 meals a week for the B and B and to lay out 2 cold breakfast selections for guests.

I think F4F and the Douche Lord will be traveling Dec, January and February to South Africa, England, Spain, Italy and other locations and F4F herself would not benefit from Maria’s cooking.

Also, the Dump is freezing ( with the exception of a couple of room of “boiling” temperatures), and there is not enough heating for F4F to entertain or host guests and for Maria or Pavlina to be warm. F4F likely was writing off the wages of Maria and Pavlina to the B and B and is far to cheap to pay them for the winter out of her grifted money, especially if Sh3 would not personally benefit.

I do not think Maria and Pavlina ever had apartments near the Dump. F4F is so cheap,
I doubt either could afford an apartment.

I think Anne Marie and Ñutty will isolate in the Marquis suite with the heating for the next 3 months.

Maybe we have given F4F an idea for an advent video. She can, with a warning to viewers, sing to Phillip, “ All I want for Christmas is NOT you!” Think he will get the message or just go take another online French lesson at his lady desk?

FRK is an enigma. Why, just at this very time last year, she was living off the generosity of Nikki in Haworth, in her own little shop (which I suspect Jill was renting to her for practically nothing), making her "wreats" for the locals... SMH, this girl is a lost cause! FRK produces very little content, never explains her actions, burns those who have tried to help her out, but wants the world to adore her and fund her lifestyle while she does f*ck all.

Does anyone know what happened there? I remember watching a vlog where she had purchased furniture for the new room, she had a car paid for by fans if I'm not mistaken, but all under the guise of a new business. She even said she had her first wedding gig. So what happened to all of that?

 

[graciemckitten]

If you were Santa, what gift(s) would you leave for the Douche Lord and F4 F or any of the other Dump crew under one of their dozen Christmas trees or crammed in their pillowcase sized Christmas stocking(s) (other than industrial size barrels of soap, sanitizer, and cleaning supplies)?

If I was Santa, I would leave a window, a door, weed killer, or a roof for Dan’s whisper of chateau. Also, work boots, gloves, eye protection shield, a respirator, and an emergency whistle to use to summon help if injured. And gift certificates for the closest McDonald’s restaurant.

You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if she says so
You can buy all the make-up that MAC can make
But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I to
Be in a position to let Stephanie make me feel so
Damn unpretty
