Straight off the press!
Brenda's got it under control.
Hello everyone....
There has been some debate today regarding the most recent Patreon vlog. For those of us who are not patrons, Stephanie will be addressing some issues that have arisen at the chateau, in tonight's vlog.
Keep your feet firmly on the ground, don't be getting over emotional....things are not that bad...no one has died or received devastating news about their health.....
Yes some sacrifices will have to be made....projects given priorities...
But this will be an ideal opportunity to secure the building structurally, insulating stud partitions on the upper floors, dry ling exterior walls & upgrading the heating system. All measures which will seal & preserve the building for future generations to enjoy.
Yes there will be additional costs involved, perhaps not as much as you might first imagine.
There maybe some disruption to the B&B, but again, if running costs are reduced by its temporary closure, it may free up finances that can be channeled towards the new improvements.
It will also create a wonderful excuse to redecorate areas......come on lets be honest....that is right up our street & what we enjoy watching.....as I said, every cloud has a silver lining....or it's an ill wind that blows no good!!!
On a more serious note, yes of course these new discoveries will create additional expenses, however, Stephanie is blessed with having a fantastic loyal Patreon group, whose continual support provides much valued income for some running costs & most projects.
I understand Patreon is not for everyone & each of us has our own opinion on the ethics of it.
But, by watching the vlogs on You Tube you are also providing much appreciated support & income. I have a suggestion...if we all watched/ let run the Chateau Diaries Christmas series this season, more than once, this would be a great advantage & increase the views for December.....just a suggestion....
Happy viewing
The Chateau Diaries @ 8.15pm GMT tonight on You Tube!!
